This was the best meal we had in Arizona during our vacation. The GF pizza was the best I’ve ever had and the sandwich bread was equally amazing. I cannot recommend it enough!

Based on other reviews, cross contamination is an issue but so far I feel okay, but I can handle a bit of contamination.

Almost nothing on the menu is safe except for a couple of salads. Shared surfaces with no inclination to accomodate. Wont cook on a pan, or change gloves, or use clean utensils. Shared fryer for everything. Just pass and go elsewhere.

UPDATE: So sad. I’ve been eating here on the regular for a year and ask every time if the pizza is cooked in a separate area and was always told yes. Last night our server said he’s sorry that I was misinformed in the past, they do cook the gf pizza in the same spot as the rest.

ORIGINAL: Best gf pizza I have EVER HAD. The crust was so damn good. The owner is a friend of a friend and assured me that they cook the pizza on a separate surface from the regular stuff. They also have Daura Damm (I know some folks won’t do it, but I’ve never had an issue). I can’t tell you how good it felt to go out for pizza and beer.

Gluten-Free at Cibo
A GF crepe with berries and mascarpone. Wonderful way to end a meal. So large you have to share!
A delicious white pizza with roasted potatoes and GF sausage. And the sausage with red sauce is equally good.
Capricciosa glutenfree pizza...Tomato sauce - mozzarella - prosciutto cot to - mushrooms - artichokes and black olives -- AMAZING!

The food is amazing, unfortunately it's a risky place to eat if you have celiac disease, specifically -- the gluten free pizzas are cooked in the same oven as the regular pizza, so not celiac appropriate, or truly gluten-free. Unfortunately, the servers there (as of September 2023 -- can't speak for earlier years) aren't very well educated surrounding celiac disease (anymore), and they believe "their oven is hot enough to eliminate the glutenous remains of the pizza, so it's okay that gluten-free and non-gluten-free pizza can be cooked in the same oven." Which is what I was told before my server went into a "risk assessment advisory from the chef". I solely ate the pizza here on the recommendation of other reviewers from this app and Yelp stating celiacs have eaten here safely, and now I'm sick LOL. Don't eat the pizza here unless you want to regret it later! Not sure if it was safer before, but here is a first hand account that it currently is *not*.

I'm not sure how safe the pasta is, so 3 stars as I haven't had it before, and I'm still unsure if the crepes are safe or not.

I'm disappointed that the server had no idea whether the gluten free crepes are made on the same surface as the other crepes and/or if the surface is sanitized between preparations. He didn't feel very enthusiastic to find out for me either. Instead, I was told -- "it's not likely that the surface is sanitized between crepes, because they're back there making them all night." And just shrugged at me. So, I gave up. I'll call and ask another time about the crepes and talk to someone who is more willing to communicate with me rather than make me feel like my presence is somehow a hindrance.

I'll never eat pizza here again though. Not worth the cancer 🤷🏻‍♀ Go to Doughbird if you want 100% certainty that wood fired gluten-free pizza won't make you sick. They have a separate oven. If you don't have celiac disease, go to Pizzeria Bianco. It's much better. Stay safe out there!

Cibo has incredible gluten free options. The dough is unbelievably good. It is all hand-made by the chefs; the head chef is from Italy.

Everything can be gluten free on the menu expect the calzone/crostone.

Seriously worth the wait!

This was my favorite place for gf pizza until I got the celiac diagnosis. They do have gf pizza and bread but it's cooked in the same oven on the same surface as the regular pizzas so not celiac friendly. The antipasto is great and if you omit the roasted peppers and bread you are fully gf. The gf crepes are cooked on a separate surface so indulge in dessert.

We ordered the the house salad and a few different types of gluten free pizzas. Unfortunately, I did not like the gluten free pizza, I was really disappointed because so many friends recommended this place. The pizza tasted pretty good when it came out super hot but once I got into my second piece, the texture became gooey and gross. I think maybe once the pizza settled the dough just got funky. The staff was really nice and I did not have any allergic reaction.

This restaurant is not safe for celiacs. They prepare all the pizzas in the same space as gluten and they use flour in their ovens. They can do a gluten-free pizza but if you are concerned about cross contact this would not be a good place to go.

The pizza tasted so good! However, the bread brought to the table initially was not gluten free (we had asked for gluten free bread-FYI the gluten free bread is the pizza dough). Also, we ordered a gluten free pizza togo and the box said gluten free, but the pizza inside was not. You need to double check that everything you order gluten free is actually the gluten free version. I am so glad I didn't eat anything before I checked- I have celiac disease and would've been sick.

What a wonderful find on 5th Avenue in downtown Phoenix!!! A friend recommended CIBO, but said she had not tried anything gluten free there. After reading the reviews on this app, I figured we had to try this pizza many heralded as the "best gluten free pizza"! Well...we were NOT disappointed. The staff was knowledgeable about the glutenfree offerings and even advised based on pizza toppings. The pizza is cooked in a separate oven and is truly some of the most delicious GF pizza we have enjoyed outside of Italy. We will return during our next trip to Phoenix and recommend this to any gluten free visitor!

Had and early dinner here before a game at Chase field. We ordered a gluten free pizza and it was absolutely delicious. Probably the best Gf crust we have had. We also shared an app and salad. The waitress was very knowledgeable about cross contamination and said her mom has celiac and always eats there safely. Not tons of kid friendly options other than cheese pizza. But a great place.

Loved this place. The restaurant is set in a cute house in a neighborhood. They have an outdoor patio that looked lovely. We will have to return when it is not raining to enjoy that. Complimentary valet parking was a big plus because if the weather. Enjoyed a gluten free mushroom pizza with truffle oil and a glass of Chardonnay. The pizza was huge, but we each ate our own because we were starving. Could be shared. Lots of options for celiacs. Loved every second we were at this place.

My salad was so good and fresh. I didn't get a pizza because I have celiac decease and when I asked how the pizza was prepared, I was told the dough was rolled out in a clean flour free area but cooked on the same area as the regular pizzas. So I didn't risk getting a pizza and being sick, I'm that sensitive that if my food touches something with Gutenberg or four firs into my I pizza I will be sick for two days! I'm glad I didn't get pizza because my husband who doesn't have to be gluten free, said his pizza was flavourless! In my opinion this is not a celiac friendly pizza place!

Cibo is one of the best gf finds... Their gf crusts are to die for!! My boyfriend, who is not gf, shares a pizza with me every time and does not miss the regular stuff. I typically eat the veggie- which comes with big chunks of roasted red pepper, zucchini and artichoke hearts (YUMMY)! The ambiance is perfect.. An eclectic house, intimate, with great lighting!
