Bigalora Wood Fired Cucina

They have taller good chewy gf pizza crust and gf pasta too.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Love that there is a GF pizza option in an airport (and with vegan cheese even) but the surcharge is really high and the crust totally bland. Not worth the price. Other GF options clearly marked on the menu.

After a little quizzing and back and forth between the waiter and back room they admitted the GF pasta is boiled in the same water as the wheat pasta. They did then agree (for us) to use fresh water for the GF. So... be careful!

Good pizza! Knowledgeable about all the gluten free options, and they had a lot that were very well marked. Pasta, pizza, and appetizers!

I gave it 5 stars because it's probably the best gluten free pizza I've had at an airport. it was tasty but I would have preferred more cheese (see photo). I bought it to go but ended up eating there so I could charge my phone using the outlets at the table up front. I'd eat there again.

Love that Bigalora is at DTW (McNamera terminal) now. I had the chop salad and a GF pizza. Everything tasted great and no tummy aches!

This is a wood fired pizza place in the Detroit Airport. The gluten free pizza is very good. The crust thin but flavorful. The sauce was also very good. They also mark everything that can be made gluten free. There are other entree options as well as appetizers and desserts. Highly recommend!

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.
