Definitely glutened. My server gave me a spiel about their gluten contamination training, using a separate tray, cutting utensils, etc. They even came back to tell me to order a different pizza as they weren't able to confirm their BBQ sauce was GF. To no avail 😢

Called and spoke to the manager before coming down and he reassured me they take every precaution for Celiacs. Ordered the chicken Cesar salad because that is easy and sure enough the salad came with croutons! On top of waiting over an hour to sit and another hour to get our food. Never again

The staff ensured that they understood the gluten cross contamination, etc but my pizza did come and NIMA tested (very quickly) with gluten found. I don’t think a place with this amount of volume is going to treat Celiac needs seriously. They took it off my bill with no further questions after I explained NIMA test. A lot of places don’t make it that easy to have it taken off the bill so I do appreciate that.

Their gluten free pizza is amazing. Also, they even have a gluten free desert cookie thing! I was too full after the pizza but it sounded promising.

GF pizza and pizookie was good. It took them 3 tries to get the salad right. First one they brought had croutons.

There weren't quite as many gluten free options as I anticipated but it was very tasty! I had the quinoa bowl with salmon. I also can't have dairy so I was very happy when they told me the chocolate chips in the GF pazookie were dairy free!

Best gluten free cheese pizza in town. The staff is very cautious when it comes to cross contamination. The first time I ordered the pizza (via over the phone for take out) the guy taking my order, his wife also has celiac and he knew how important it was for there to be no cross contamination. Tonight when I ordered my pizza (over the phone) I mentioned how great of a job they did last time to avoid cross contamination and the man said "I'm the general manager, don't worry your pizza will be perfect!" And it was! (The label on the box said *allergy* *allergy* *allergy* celiac)

They do have a GF menu— you have to ask for it. I’ll take pics below. It’s much more limited than the very extensive regular menu. Also, unfortunately the fryer is not gluten-free so the fries, ribs and chicken wings are contaminated and not on the GF menu. What is on it, though, are burgers with a gluten-free bun, salads, some steaks, pork chops, salmon, pizza, and a vegan bowl. Also they have a gluten-free cookie dessert called a “Pizookie”, —of course the regular pizookie is not gluten-free but they make a gluten-free one also, out of almond flour. I had a cheeseburger with GF bun and a salad with a hard cider. It was delicious! Good experience overall.

I’ve eaten here a few times. Always better to go when it’s not very busy, as theres a higher risk of cross-contamination. I’ve heard good things about their burgers but the fries are not safe, so i usually get the gf pizza and havent had any issues. Sadly, every time i order the supposedly gf pizookie, i get sick. Not sure if it’s the ice cream they use on top or if it’s just not truly gluten free. I’ve asked staff multiple times about it and they don’t seem to have an answer for it.

Our son has celiac and was able to enjoy a cheeseburger today with a GF bun and a side salad. Our server notified the head cook and manager of our son’s allergy and they took extra precautions to ensure his safety.

Gluten free buns available. Fryers are not dedicated so no fries or tortilla chips. There is a "gluten sensitive" menu with items listed online.
