Review


The only good thing, service was great. The cons; GF deep dish crust was not good :-( I had my hopes up for a tasty GF pizza, the crust was underbaked and flabby for most of the pizza and the edges were tough and crunchy. So tough I couldn’t cut it with the butter knife they provided. The taste of the crust was bland. My family had a regular deep dish pizza which they described as buttery and delicious. My husband tried a bite of my pizza and said it tasted no where near as good as theirs. I don’t expect a gf crust to ever be as good as a regular crust but I don’t see why it has to taste like nothing! I wouldn’t eat here again. For those who are interested the menu stated the GF crust is made off site in a clean facility but is baked in the same kitchen as regular pizzas. Significant risk of cross contamination for a pizza that tastes like disappointment.
