Grimaldi's Pizzeria

I called in before to confirm they have gluten free crust, they do. However they did make it clear they cook all the pizzas in the same oven. I appreciated the information. I have a gluten sensitivity and was able to eat very comfortably! The crust is very thin, however with the toppings and the taste of the sauce it was very delicious.

This restaurant is listed on The Venetians “Gluten Free Eating Guide” so I figured I’d check it out. I asked the hostess if it was safe for someone with Celiac and she said they do not recommend it for anyone with Celiac. Everything is cooked in the same over and there’s flour all around. They do take a few precautions for anyone who is gluten sensitive (cook on a different screen), but I wouldn’t chance it for anyone Celiac or seriously sensitive.

Only three choices for gluten friendly crust, traditional, pesto, or white pizza with garlic cream sauce. My wife had the traditional, it had a sweet tomato sauce and was tasty. I had the pesto pizza, which had good flavor. The crust was thin and cracker like. Service was excellent and it is has a brick oven and nice decor.

Celiac friendly?

No

For the casual or preferential G-Free folks: this is probably a can-do eatery. For Celiac - No Way.

We tried this establishment based on past reviews. When speaking to management, we were told that they “definitely could not guarantee no cross contamination. “

As we were hearing this, we got a look in the kitchen. Chefs were hand-tossing pizza crusts, and you could see slow-floating airborne particulates. Additionally, kitchen staff were wearing black and all of them had lots of white on their uniforms ( my wife would say “covered with).

Draw your own conclusions, but my guess is that the floaters & uniform contaminates are probably not corn starch.

I ordered an individual GF pizza, with pepperoni, mushrooms and bell pepper and was delicious! Grimaldi's has a great vibe, excellent food and excellent service. Had no issues with cross contamination. However, they call it "gluten friendly" which kind of means there could easily be cross contamination. Maybe I got lucky, not sure, but I'll definitely be going back.

Have a good GF pizza crust. While a stone fire oven, they cooked my pizza on tray to avoid cross contamination.

My Celiac daughter loves the GF pizza here! She is very sensitive and has eaten here multiple times, so far she hasn’t had an issue! 🤞🏻 I have only been with her the first time, the other times she has gone with friends, but the waitress assured me the first time we went that they would take careful precautions to avoid cross contamination! Hoping this will be a keeper!
