I went to the one on the plaza and had probably the best gluten free pizza I have had. Crisp crust, tasted great. Many of their pizzas can be gluten free, but for those with an allergy like me they have a menu of 4 pizzas that they make in a seperate area and can guarantee no cross contamination so I ordered one from there. There was a pepperoni, a marguerita, a mushroom, sausage and a pepperoni. I can't remember the 4th. Anyway, I have had 4 gluten free pizzas at different restaurants since I found out I had celiac and this was by far the best.

A pizza place that advertises gluten free, but doesn't even offer a gluten free crust. Nothing gluten free that my daughter would eat.

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.

Took the certified gf BBQ chichen pizza. Really good. If you’re not a good eater, i suggest to share it with another person. Half is enough.

Yes they have a gluten free crust and a few salad options but that is all. Some servers did not seem knowledgeable about what gluten was or what food contains it and did not seem interested in finding out. The gluten free bbq chicken pizza was good and I didn’t have a reaction but based on the experience and limited options it felt risky.

GF items are marked on the menu, this is one of my favorite reliable places for GF pizza. It comes out with a GF flag. I’ve eaten here many times and never had any problems.
