Ordered a couple of g/f pizzas and g/f bread sticks. Kiddo LOVED the breadsticks! The pizzas were quite good, and wow they do not skimp on toppings! We also had a non-g/f pizza for other family members which looked fantastic. The non-g/f family enjoyed the breadsticks as well.

My daughter was recently diagnosed with celiac and navigating eating out has been difficult.The owner of Pizza Garden also has celiac and was so kind and understanding. She made our daughter feel at ease knowing that eating there would be safe and she wouldn't be glutened. Great pizza and food! We will definitely be coming back again when we visit.

Excellent pizza! They hand roll the gluten free dough. The owner has celiac and takes preparation very seriously. I ended up ordering two pizzas so I could have some the following day. Great service, great pizza!!

Pizza Garden was a wonderful find during our Oregon Coast vacation. Right now the only ones working are the owner and her 2 daughters, so it felt good to support them and get a delicious pizza too! Having celiac herself, she really put our minds at ease and ensure our meal was free of cross contamination. We will be back frequently, I am sure. Thank you!

Amazing pizza! The owner has celiac disease, all staff is very knowledgeable!! All pizzas are made with their own dough and hand rolled- not from the freezer or a package. They have pizzas, pastas and breadsticks all gluten free! Definitely worth the stop if you are in the area

They have excellent lasagne and pizza, crust is paper thin though and bread sticks are plain and dense. The reason for two stars is because I asked if they had gf dessert and they said only a gf brownie so I got it for my son. Halfway into it he said it tastes too good to be gf so I called up to make sure they gave me the right one and they casually said they don’t have gf brownies.. when I explained what they told me the first time and that my son was already eating it and had celiac they seemed to not care and said I can come back and get a refund on the brownie if I like or a credit towards my next meal.

This place was AWESOME! Staff was super friendly and stoked we were on our honeymoon. GF pizza, lasagna, kids Mac & cheese & breadsticks. Omission GF beer for those that are only gluten sensitive. Vegan cheese also available for extra charge. They want to cater to everyone here and it truly shows. Told the waitress to notify the kitchen that I was celiac in case there is extra precautions they take. I however am not very symptomatic but I felt great the next day! Enjoy and highly recommend! Once again the staff was excellent :)

Yummy! Had great lasagne. Had really good rhubarb/peach cobbler for dessert. Waitress was gluten intolerant, so was very knowledgeable. A place not to be missed.

3/13/15 Came here again & food was just as great as before. Now they also have gluten free beers on the menu. I love this place!

Yummy gf lasagna, nice and helpful staff. Owner has come out each time we have been there and she is super nice and understanding of food sensitivities.

They even offer a gf and egg free pizza crust! Dairy free and gf options including home made ice cream, sorbet, and cobblers. Can't say enough what a pleasure it was to come here. Nice outdoor seating on the water as well. Family friendly.

The staff is great. The food is awesome, almost everything is made in house. The prices are VERY reasonable. We will be coming back for sure. Maybe a special drive from Portland will be on our near future.

Charming riverside Italian restaurant run by a lovely local owner. We called ahead to vet their celiac awareness as we were visiting from out of town and were comforted to learn that one of the waitresses has celiac herself.

Regarding the food, the GF pizza crust was very good and made in house. The GF lasagna was hearty and rich and while we didn't order any pasta the options were plentiful.

We were thrilled to find this reliable and affordable gem in charming Nehalem and will be back next time we are at the Oregon coast, without question.

I didn't get sick at all. I am very Gluten and dairy sensitive. I had two pizzas with vegan cheese and a salad with raspberry vinagrette. Highly recommended. Knowledgable staff, homemade crust and sauce(amazing sauce). Clean. Expensive though, two medium gf vegan pizzas, a salad and root beer were $40.

This place was great. I was on a fishing trip and stopped in for dinner. The waitress as well as the owner/chef both came over to the table. Very friendly and super knowledgeable. The make most everything in house from scratch and you can taste the freshness. I had the homemade GF pizza which was delicious and ate the leftovers for lunch on the river. GF salad dressings, GF lasagna, GF pasta, GF beer and GF desserts. If you are on the coast of Oregon you have to stop here.
