Review
People are saying that it was unsafe, but my observations were that they made my pizza in the back, not in a common oven. I can't see what is going on in the back but I have been multiple times without getting sick and so has a family member with celiacs. Pricey, but well cooked and tasty!

Review
The crust was delicious. It is not a dedicated GF oven. I did not have a reaction but it is a gamble.

They have gluten free crust but it gets tossed in the same oven as the rest of the pizzas so it’s covered in cooked flour on the bottom 2/10 gluten free
