Awesome experience multiple times. They have a separate counter for preparing GF pizza and the certified GF ingredients are kept separate. Never had a reaction. They follow ultimate safety practices.

All the pizzas can be made on a cauliflower GF crust. They are delicious. Many other GF items on the menu and the y are clearly marked.

My wife is gluten free, we ate here recently and ordered the gluten free crust. The pizza itself was ok, nothing to write home about, but later that night she was really sick. I don't think they have a dedicated oven or toppings for their gluten free pizza. Their crust might be certified gluten free but there is definitely cross contamination. Please beware if you are celiac.

I feel like the pizza is hit or miss. I've been twice since they re-created their GF pizza. once the crust was chewy and crisp (the best GF pizza crust I've ever had!) and the second time it was spongy and soggy.

The GF options are very limited, since they dont have a GF pizza crust. It was down to tortilla soup, salmon, and a few different salads.

Eaten here 2x and have not gotten sick. The crust does taste gluten free (find me a gluten free crust that doesn't taste gluten free), but it's what's on top of the crust that is the real deal.

Impressed that you could ask for their certified GF pizzas on the kids menu. Our coeliac daughter was very happy with her cheese pizza which came out with a GF flag by a differed server with gloves on. No ill effects. It has been very hard finding safe and appealing choices for her on our travels in America so definitely a happy customer.

It’s always a risk at pizza places that aren’t dedicated GF, but we felt assured that the staff takes good precautions to avoid cross contamination here. And the pizza was very tasty.
