Review of Emmy Squared

Overall Rating

Review


We were specific about asking what was gluten free so the waiter went to the kitchen and assured us which pizza was GF. The website states they avoid cross contamination and use gloves, a separate oven, a separate pizza cutter but the area is open to other gluten foods. So is my kitchen but I’ve never caused my adult son who has celiac to be so violently ill as he was after eating at Emmy squared. This was not a bit of cross contamination… we believe the pizza he was served was full of gluten. He’s eaten a slice of white bread with gluten before and didn’t get this sick.

The manager did reimburse our meal and a supervisor called us to apologize.

Now that I know about this site, I will be checking before going to any restaurants. We eat out with my son a lot and never experienced this.

Heck, he had GF pizza in the tiny town of North Conway NH and felt fine.
