Flying Saucer Pizza Company

Love this place! Retro space theme with plenty of Star Wars memorabilia. They have a GF menu and were knowledgeable about celiac. A server said they don’t fry anything—it’s all baked, so no worries about a shared fryer. (For people with other food sensitivities, they also have a vegan menu and say they don’t use any nuts.) I got the rocket tots and a build-your-own GF pizza, which were both tasty. I actually liked the tots more than the pizza because they have a fabulous cajun seasoning. 😋 The pizza was good, too, of course. I sat at the bar, and they were playing Fellowship of the Ring on one tv and Our Flag Means Death on another. So that’s the vibe. 😄

Such a cute place with a retro vibe. I got the Space Balls appetizer (which is surprisingly like flatbread….not bread-balls, like mistakenly I assumed). The staff was knowledgeable and put me at ease right away! My non-Celiac husband enjoyed the Mac and cheese and Space Invaders pizza. We’re in Salem quite a bit and will definitely return!!!

The gf pizza came out kind of burnt. Crust is thin, kind of hard. Nothing special about their gf pizza so go in with low expectations. It’s not disgusting and it’s better than nothing but there’s better options in Salem.

The pizza was good. But not $22 good. It’s a TINY pizza. I think a $22 pepperoni pizza is a bit overpriced.

100% recommend! The pizza was great and they prepare them separately (use same oven though). No reactions and they have a separate GF menu with tons of options. No reactions after eating here and it’s also just a really cool place to see.

This was one of the best experiences at a restaurant that I've had. The server was extremely knowledgeable and explained their process to be and gave me a separate gluten free menu to look at. The pizza was absolutely amazing and was totally fine afterwards! Will definitely be back.

Discovered this little gem while experiencing Salem’s October weekend craziness. We (party of 5) waited in line for about 45 minutes, then an extra 15 because we definitely wanted an inside table, because it was getting chilly. We didn’t mind the wait, it was definitely expected. The servers were very celiac’s knowledgeable and the restaurant is very cautious about cross contamination. The best part, all the pizza, was out of this world! The gluten free crust might have even been better than the regular crust!

This pizza is a solid 10/10. I ordered the Poison Ivy on gluten free crust. They stopped the kitchen to make my gluten free pizza so to avoid cross contamination. This pizza was extra tasty and I didn’t get glutened. The server also made sure to note I was celiac on the order. If you like adult beverages, they had DownEast Pumpkin Cider on draft and it was sooo good!

I live nearby and this is my go to pizza place. I have celiac and i’ve never gotten sick from eating there. when ordering online they have an option to tell the cook that you have a wheat/gluten allergy or if you have celiac and they always make sure everything is safe if you let them know there’s an allergy

Gluten and other allergen knowledgeable. Appetizers were good but the pizza was literally the worst gf pizza I’ve ever had. The crust was hard and gross and it was baked so little that the cheese wasn’t even melted.

Got so so sick... very disappointing.

Celiac friendly?

No

The restaurant is still there unlike the last post stated. Great pizza. Lots of options.

Delicious!! Get the garlic bread. That I know for sure is prepared in a GF specific kitchen off site.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I eat here pretty regularly. Their toppings are good, they use Udi’s crust

They have a gluten free menu but told me they couldn't guarantee there wouldn't be cross contamination. More of a place for hipsters who want to sip a wheat beer with their glutenless pizza

Celiac friendly?

No

They warned me against mild cross contamination as there is the chance of airborne flour.

Well, I got SO SO SO SICK. I actually had to ask for a later checkout from my hotel the next day bc it was SO bad. There was nothing mild about it - I actually think they may have given me a gluten crust.

Beware.

Celiac friendly?

No

We've been several times and the pizza is good. Last visit, we definitely got glutened and haven't been back since. It was busy and our server seemed frazzled so maybe that's why but if you're moderately-highly sensitive, I wouldn't risk it.

Celiac friendly?

No

The owner (yes owner) once served me regular pizza, & said it was GF crust. I got so sick. If they get it correct, it's yummy. If not, suffer.

GF pizza (+2.50) seemed cooked in advance of the 1.00ea ingredients added upon pizza AFTER cooking. Grilled chicken upon it kinda cold.

Servicepeople were absolutely & overtly DISINTERESTED. Pizza was dropped at the table and staff was gone as I was in process if asking her a question.

I had asked for the GF Brownie for dessert...yet our total was ready as pizzas were cleared and I had to remind her we weren't done and wanted dessert.

Our drinks were weak.

Pizza was interesting...just do Take-out!!!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I really was excited to eat here as there were majority good reviews, however 30 minutes after eating the pizza I started to get my usual "you've had gluten" symptoms. There must of been some cross-contamination in the kitchen without their realization. I would say this restaurant isn't celiac friendly.

Celiac friendly?

No

I can't stop dreaming about the amazing pizza, garlic bread AND brownie dessert I had here. Multiple options, give them a look!!

Celiac friendly?

No

Very tasty GF pizza.

Food was great! They have both gluten free and dairy free options. It's really hard to find a place I can eat with gluten and dairy allergies, let alone be able to eat pizza! Definitely going back.

Celiac friendly?

No

Best pizza I have had in a long time. Staff were very knowledgeable. Highly recommended.

Delicious! Gluten free! What more can you ask?

Great tasting pizza, good knowledge and GF, however, I had issues within 15 minutes of eating the pizza. Not sure if it was the toppings or contamination from cooking. Usually, I don't have issues that quickly so it must have been something bad. Prob won't be trying it again to find out though.

O-M-G! I'm moving to Salem just for the awesome GF food! Delicious GF pizza and beer (a rather bitter stout) and a must have treat was the "Groot" GF Brownie Sundae for dessert! I'm in Heaven!

If only all ended well...I loved the energy and thoughtfulness of the staff but I was reminded again of why I only occasionally eat out. My younger daughter and myself both ordered individual GF pizzas and the GF brownie desert. Tasted great and even asked for verification that ours was indeed GF. Perhaps something handled improperly in the kitchen, but both of us still feeling the undeniable ugly Gluten hangover the following day.

Pricey but good. Lots of different choices and different gluten free beers

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Not Ceiliac friendly.

they do have a GF menu, but it is not safe for those with celiac as they make the other pizza a fair amount of time with flour in the air. we went with 4 adults and 4 toddlers after reading rave reviews and I ended up having to get a wrap across the street for my 3 year.old and myself as they made regular pizza 20 min prior. big bummer and socially difficult situation.

Delicious pizza!

delicious pizza options on GF crust, and a cool sci-fi vibe.

Celiac friendly?

Yes
