Had the mushroom pizza and it was quite good. The crust held together well and did not get soggy. We did take out but it seems like they would be willing to modify a lot if needed!

Had the gluten free ciabatta, the roasted sweet potatoes, roasted wings and a gluten free pizza followed my a salted caramel parfait for dessert. I’m not sure what to say about the prior review. I’m very gluten sensitive and my dining companion is celiac. We both enjoyed it and neither of us got sick.

They prepare the gluten free pizza in the same spot as the regular pizza. There is flour everywhere and the use the same utensils for sauce and floured hands to grab the cheese. You can watch all of the cross contamination everywhere! The food tastes great though.

They have a dedicated gluten free pizza oven and assured me they take gluten allergies very seriously! The pizza and focaccia were delicious. They do not have a dedicated fryer so I avoided the fries and fried bread.

Not safe for Celiacs!! We ordered a GF crust and specifically asked if it was celiac-safe. I’m not even confident that the crust we were served was actually GF. I haven’t been this sick from eating out in a very long time. They clearly don’t take any steps to keep celiacs safe or avoid cross-contamination. Celiacs beware!

Stay away celiacs, I asked the waitress if they had any gluten free items, she had no clue and had to ask two other people to find the answer. They use the same pots and utensils for pastas so I avoided and still got sick from the pizza and wings. Very disappointed :(

Their website is deceptive and the person who answered the phone had no idea if their fries (listed as GF) are actually safe. She asked someone while I waited on the phone who informed her the fries are GF and the fryer is only for GF items. I went there on the assumption I could eat them. Upon getting there, the waitress informed me the fryer is NOT dedicated. So we decided to try their GF pizza. It is terrible, dry, and has an odd bitter dusting of flour on the bottom. It is also very expensive for the portion size. I did not feel safe eating there, but please note I didn't get sick. I would not recommend it for a fellow Celiac.
