Great experiences. Staff is very knowledgeable; they changed gloves, used a separate cutter and separate prep station. Nice to have a safe pizza place the whole family can enjoy.

I am celiac and come here regularly. The staff is generally very good about accommodating for allergy food prep - let them know it’s an allergy, request a glove change, ask for the red sauce they keep separate (so you’re not eating from the sauce that had the spoon wiped all over gluten crusts), etc. They do cook your pizza right along side other pizzas with gluten, but it is kept on a metal tray. You can also ask them to use a separate cutter (or request they don’t cut it) when it comes out. Sometimes this process fails at the cutting station, particularly with new staff, so if you are celiac you should probably hang out by the front while it’s cooking until you’re familiar.

Staff was not super careful with the gf pizza. After pizza came out of oven it was placed on same rack as regulars pizza so it was cross contaminated. Watch your food carefully!!! Toppings are scarce especially after having to pay extra for a gf crust. Won’t be back. Super bummed.

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!
