I got a pizza and it was very good. It was a tradition gf crust. Very thin and flat. It was good but I'm always hoping for a fluffy more traditional crust and this was not it. Toppings we're yummy.

Pizza was pretty good, but I felt fairly sick the next day. There was likely some cross-contact. Unfortunately Whitefish does not seem to be very celiac friendly and this is one of the best options. Hard to recommend it to other celiacs, but you might have more luck with their salads.

Pros: separate gluten free menu (lots of great options), food was good, waiter could answer questions, honest attempt at preventing cc Cons: pizzas all came out together/ mine was not announced upon delivery (reduced my confidence), and next day I felt pretty crummy. :(

Had a gluten free pizza and the dough was like cardboard with no seasoning. Not a cauliflower crust, but wouldn’t go back. Better options in town.

Very knowledgeable staff, different equipment for gf crust. Had the Polynesian pizza, and it was possibly the best pizza I’ve ever had. There are a lot of gf options too!

This place is incredible for celiac/gluten allergy individuals! The staff is very knowledgable about gluten free options and the bbq sauce they use is also gluten free! They have a separate gluten free menu. I got the rancher and added pineapple and it was absolutely one of the best pizzas I’ve ever had. The crust was absolutely amazing. It tasted so good the first day and still good the next day cold. They also have delicious huckleberry lemonade. The price is extremely reasonable, the customer service is fantastic and very warm friendly, pleasant and quick. I would highly recommend stopping here and was so glad I did thanks to the gluten free finder app!

This restaurant was good with gluten free, and had great gf pizza that satisfied all my taste buds. The chewy and soft crust was unbelievable! They have a separate gluten free menu with a wide variety of of options. However, they do mention that they take many precautions but they can’t promise it will be completely free of gluten although our daughter has severe celiac and she didn’t get sick. Great service and food quality. I definitely recommend this restaurant. 👍

Waitress and Chef confirmed that the pizza is not Celiac safe. The oven has a blower and blows flour over everything in the oven. He recommends either the Tuscan Penne pasta or a salad. The pasta comes in its own pouch and is microwaved. I appreciated them being honest and helping us find a safe solution.

I have severe Celiac's and this place had options but their knowledge made me uneasy. I stayed safe and went with a salad. They do tell you because it is a pizza place they can't guarantee anything, so I didn't want to risk it.

Gluten free crust available and delicious! The chicken chili is GF, as well as the artichoke dip. The Cowboy Nachos with ground beef are GF (chicken steak and pork are not Gf) none of the house made dressings for salad are GF but there are plenty of others to choose from that are GF. If you order a house salad make sure to ask for it without Grapenuts. The pizza crusts are celiac friendly and are cooked in their own tray and cut with a special cutter, but it's all cooked in the same oven, so nothing is 100%. Many with celiacs don't seem to have a problem eating here :) Be careful with pizza as far as sauce and toppings! The Thai sauce, Alfredo sauce, and Italian sausage and NOT GF! Everything else as far as toppings seem to be safe though!

Very knowledgeable about gluten and cross contamination. They use the same oven but the gluten free pizza has its own trays and cutters. They also have angry Orchard cidar. The hostess was gluten intolerant. Also, or server went out of her way to confirm everything I was eating was safe. I'm very happy with my experience. And the pizza was yummy. We had a Rancher and BBQ pizza.

This place has amazing food. I’ve eaten here 2 times so far and will continue to go back. They have lots of gf options to choose from. The first time I had a pasta dish and their flourless chocolate cake. This time I had a Hawaiian pizza. All food has been amazing and I’ve never been sick. I’ve always let them know it’s an allergy and they are very good at letting the kitchen know.

Great spot and only a few minutes from the airport. Our server wasn’t the best. We ordered basic non- alcoholic drinks and we ended up having to place another order for our drinks again from the bartender after waiting for over 20 minutes. If you have time to spare I recommend this spot. The pizza is gf, delicious and plentiful. Great crust and flavorful. Don’t go if you are in a time crunch!

Went here, asked for a gluten free menu. I was pretty impressed at the size of the menu offerings. I ordered the pesto shrimp pasta and made sure to explain that I needed gluten free. The pasta was almost too good to be true, had the taste and consistency of normal pasta. I even had my husband try it, which brought us to the decision that I should not continue eating it. I had around 1/4 of the dish at that point. I did end up getting sick and having a flare up after eating here. Going out to eat is a rare occasion, as it is usually just easier to make my own food, so I was disappointed in the experience.
