I would not eat here if you have celiac. They used the gf dough on the regular dough smasher. They were annoyed that i pointed it out and said that’s how they do it now. We walked out of line and haven’t been back.

Great pizza and separate masher for the crust and a separate surface... sometimes need to remind them to use the GF tomato sauce at the end of the line. I’m here once a week with no problems.

The staff was very friendly and offered a glove change up front. They used a mat so my GF pizza wouldn’t touch the oven used by the other pizzas. To finish it off, they sliced the pizza using a separate cutter (seemed pretty conscience of cross-contamination).

No clue about gf at all. Discussed the gf options and the server was happy to change gloves so I thought great, then he went to use a tray that clearly had normal flour from previous on it, I asked them to change to a clean one which they did and then he sprinkled it with normal flour!! Another member of staff told him he couldn't put flour on the base but by then it was too late, I decided to leave.

This was one of the only options for food open late at night but I'd rather go without than get poisoned.

I couldn't leave 0 stars!!

I have been to Blaze restaurants that use precautions in preparing GF pizzas. This isn’t one of them. We ordered 2 GF pizzas for my daughter and I, and the fellow (not his fault, obviously had no training) took two of the cooking discs out of a pile of flour from the regular station. He put our GF dough on top of the flour covered discs. We apologized for the inconvenience and left. Blaze is in general a terribly run franchise system. Very disappointing.

They have great gluten free crust. It’s especially good if you ask for it well done as it helps get it more crispy. They are pretty good at changing gloves and asking if it is an allergy.

This location had been good in the past and made sure to take precautions including getting fresh toppings but not so great the past year. I’ve tried multiple times to go back and every time over the past year, I have walked out without ordering as they make me extremely uncomfortable. Every time I go they have a change in staff. When I ask about celiac friendly, they advise they change their gloves, have a gf dough, and have a separate “allergy” sauce, but they WILL NOT use separate toppings. So therefore you will be glutened. When I’ve inquired but getting fresh toppings they have advised they can’t do that. If you try this place be TAKE CAUTION.

They offer a Gluten free option but sadly there's a high risk of cross contamination. There are very few employees that care enough to acknowledge your celiac concerns and use ingredients separate from the front counter. I've been to this location twice and the 2nd time was the awful experience that made me stop going.

Excellent pizza! I had the regular GF crust and it was quite tasty. I also have to give them credit for switching out the crust twice when they pulled them out and they had small rips in the bottom. They said it was already fragile, so they wanted a good one. Excellent customer service!
