There is a difference between the regular gluten free pizzas and certified gluten free pizzas. Be sure to specify when ordering. I got the certified GF cheese pizza. It was delicious and they will deliver within the casino. I had mine delivered to bingo. Very good. Did not get sick.

Waitress was knowledgeable about GF pizzas/options and took the allergy seriously. Both GF kids cheese pizza and the California Cobb salad were very good— no belly aches or sickness afterwards. Double checked on GF salad dressings for me, as well. Appreciated the diligence and we will return!

My server wasn’t too knowledgeable about gluten free things aside from the certified gluten free pizzas. BBQ, margherita, pepperoni and cheese. I had the bbq. It was really good. They have a cauliflower crust too that’s supposedly gluten free. I didn’t try it this time. I didn’t get sick and my pizza was pretty tasty. I couldn’t find an allergen info sheet on their salad dressings and nobody seemed to know but I had the ranch and I was fine.

The gluten free pizzas (they have 5 certified) are prepared in a separate area. The best GF pizza crust I have ever had, isn't chewy or tough like others can be.

RUN RUN RUN I ordered a GF pizza to go. I told the manager how sensitive I was and she assured me they would be very careful. When the pizza came out of the oven I saw the man making regular pizza keep the same gloves on and take his hand and proceed to put it in the oregano container and then sprinkle it all over my GF pizza. When the manager brought the pizza to me I asked her about it and she clearly understood the error and apologized. No pizza for me!!!

Three dedicated gf pizza options which were all good. Could have other toppings if not real sensitive and want to take the chance. The warm peach salad was excellent.

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.
