Very good pizza! Many GF options, almost all pizzas and many pastas can be made GF. GF pizza can be hit or miss but this was one of the better ones I have had for sure

Gluten free items are cleary marked and staff were quite knowledgeable. The chef made an Alfredo sauce without gluten for my son as a special request to have with his gluten free penne. It was fabulous! Will be going back for more.

Food was good. Large portions. They were able to easily accommodate my gluten free requirement. Only issue was the length of time it took to be served.

Super restaurant. Plusieurs options étaient disponibles pour moi. Toutes les pizzas pouvaient être adaptées! La serveuse était très coopérative et soucieuse de mon allergie. Très satisfaite, je recommande .

The restaurant knows about celiac and takes care to avoid cross contamination. Heads up that all their white sauces have flour, so red sauces only.

Review
We are in with one celiac in the family. They offer both pizzas and pasta GF substitute. She had the pizza and it was great. The size was substantial, and noticed they didn’t cut it at all, brought out a knife for her to cut. I’ve noticed this a few places where they want to avoid risk of cross contaminating with cutters.
Appreciated the server talked to 11 year old inquiring about GF options.

Came here for dinner with the family! My celiac sister and I had the salmon salad and gf pepperoni pizza. Both were sooo good, salmon was cooked really well and the gf pizza crust was almost the real thing. Our waitress was really knowledgeable and took great care in making sure everything was gluten free. Would def recommend!

Review
Delicious gf pizza! They don't have a separate oven but they do use a clean tray and a clean knife for you to cut the pizza to prevent cross contamination. I would definitely eat here again.
Review
Pizza was delicious! When I ordered, the server asked if I did not want it cut, to prevent contamination. They brought the pizza with a clean steak knife, and I cut it myself - a great compromise. I am celiac and very sensitive, no reaction!!
Review
great gluten free options, no dedicated fryer tho... So sad
