Waitress brought out order, looked "weird" to me. I asked if it was for sure gluten free, she stated "yes". Ate a slice, came back 5 minutes later saying she brought us the wrong pizza from the back. Needless to say, I'm extremely sick a few hours later and won't be back.

Good GF pie; crust, sauce, and toppings were good and better than most.

I like this chain and have eaten at many locations, this was my first experience at this location. I explained that I have Celiac and a Dairy Allergy. The server took my order and communicated with the Kitchen. The rest of my party received their pizza first.

The waitress and manager came to my table to tell me that there was an accident in the kitchen and that they would remake it. This care and caution is worth the wait x3 times over. Not getting sick? I'll wait all evening. I didn't have to send it back myself? They proved they are knowledgable and will hold themselves accountable.

My pizza came out safe and I had an amazing birthday dinner with my friends. I did not feel any cross contamination after eating. The vegan cheese was very good and they took good care of my vegan friend. They took my allergy very seriously.

Food is good, seemed to avoid cross contamination, but the absolute slowest service. Even take out is double the time you are told. Be prepared to spend hours waiting!

Not safe for Celiac. EVERY TIME I’ve eaten here I have ended up having a very negative body reaction. Cross contamination is extremely high and I do not feel proper safety measures are taken even after informing the waiter/waitress of the severity of my concerns about food safety.

Pizza was ok. Crust was cardboard like. It is safe but there's definitely better gf pizza options out there. Angelo's in Lakewood now has gf pizza, cooked and made separately and so does pelicanos in rocky river.

Awesome pizza. Went with the gourmet white. Asked about their process and they assured me the have a separate oven used for GF and handled with all different utensils etc for safety. I would definitely recommend trying out this place. It's my new favorite pizza place!

Much better when eating it in person. I’ve never had a bad experience at any mellow mushroom when dining in, but take-out and delivery is 50/50 depending on the location. Unfortunately, for this location, take-out and delivery should be avoided if you cannot have cross-contact. I’ve had to stop ordering and tell family/friends that while yes, we can eat there, please don’t order it for parties.

Ordered a gluten free pizza and have no complaints whatsoever. Amazing taste, and no symptoms after. Server seemed knowledgeable, etc. honestly one of the better GF pizzas I’ve had. Since it’s a chain, always make sure to ensure your dietary needs.

Great GF pizza and vegan cheese option for the dairy free folk! Everything tastes great and I was assured they made GF food separately. The brownie dessert was good too for a frozen and wrapped treat, it tasted like a Little Debbie’s cosmic brownie!

My favorite GF pizza! We eat here at least once a month and I’ve never been sick from it. GF pizza takes longer of a wait, and that’s the only con I have.

Their GF pizza is always great. I usually get the Mighty Meaty. I’ve never had issues here. They also always have Bold Rock on tap.
