I was so excited to go here, but I had a really disappointing experience. First of all, a $5 upcharge for gluten free crust?! I get it, the flour is expensive, but I've been too sick to work for the past 10 years! I'm not doing this as some kind of status symbol! But if it's so expensive, maybe it's the best pizza ever, and it's totally worth the price? So I stand there for a while trying to figure out which pizza toppings/sauces are gluten free. But it's not mentioned anywhere on the menu.

By now I'm running a little short on time before my concert, so I order the house salad and ask which dressings are gluten free. "None." Okay... is the chicken gluten free? "No." Any of the meats at all? "The only thing that's gluten free is the crust." Okay, but veggies are naturally gluten free. So if I was going to order a gluten free pizza with toppings, which toppings would be gluten free? "Just the veggies. I don't really know."

Yeah, that's a REALLY bad sign. Normally I would have left and eaten somewhere else, but I was in a rush so I decided to risk it. I got extra mozzarella and put some salt and pepper on my dry salad, but now I'm worried about them not changing their gloves back there, even though I said from the start I had celiac. Ugh.

I'm giving it 2 stars because I was hungry and my salad was pretty good. But it was literally veggies and shredded mozzarella. I left feeling like I would have been way better off going to Chick-fil-a, which is a really depressing thing to think when leaving a renowned pizza joint.

Celiac friendly?
