Robert's Pizza and Dough Company

Great pizza! After telling the wait staff that I have Celiac, the owner came out and said he would personally oversee the order. The pizza is cooked in the same oven as regular pizza, but they used a separate stone to cook the pizza on. I haven’t gotten sick yet, so fingers crossed. 🍀

Second time coming back. I changed the safety rating to a five star. I didn’t get sick. Here’s a tip from one of the managers: order the Cali Italia or the Prosciutto Arugula pizza as they have less of a chance of cross contamination.

Enjoy!

Enjoyed the pizza. 1st one I’ve had in a year. Good variety beyond the normal cheese or pepperoni pizza. The menu did mention the GF crust contained wheat starch. That made me really nervous. I have a colitis condition (not celiac) and am sensitive right now and, now writing this 1 day later, I did not have a reaction. From what I know, it’s wheat proteins, gluten being one of them, that is the issue so if the it’s purely starch with no protein then would not cause issue.

We were in Chicago over the holidays and this location had great reviews. We ordered takeout and the pizza was very delicious then crust lots of gooey cheese. We didn’t order anything super special just a cheese pizza I would go back.

The BEST GF pizza you will find. They’re also full size so you can split with another person if you’d like. Servers are always knowledgeable. Best pizza in town if you ask me.

My husband is very sensitive to cross contamination. Our waitress informed us there may be a little cross contamination when it comes to the pizza, was not guaranteed GF completely. She recommended 1 soup to be the only option fully GF. Husband chose not to order food, didn’t want to take the chance!

We were in town for two nights and heard we had to eat here for gf pizza. Luckily we had a reservation because it was busy!! It was only about 20 min wait after we arrived. Our server was great- she has a trainee. Pizza came out in about 30 min. I ordered the Brussel sprout bacon pizza and my daughter ordered the The Lia. The crust was the best GF crust we have ever had in America. It was crispy outside and chewy inside. It tasted unreal for gf. Amazing crust. That being said- my Brussel sprout bacon pizza was inedible. The Brussel sprouts tasted liked they had been microwaved 5 days before and then burned to the top of the pizza. And every inch was covered with them. I scraped off the toppings and ate the crust of one piece but the bitter flavor lingered. My daughter had the classic cheese pizza. It was way better topping wise. But the crust was much darker and almost burnt- not as thick or chewy as mine. We ended up compromising. We ate the triangle inside of her cheese pizza and not the outer crust and then tore off and ate the outer crust of mine but not the triangle part with toppings. The waitress asked if we wanted ranch dipping sauce and we said yes- luckily! It was homemade and amazing. It made my daughter’s overdone crust palatable. It made my perfect crust divine. I would definitely come back. But I would have reservations about the done- ness of the crust.

The gluten free pizza crust is the best one I've had! The owner came to our table and told us how he makes it. Great experience overall!

Buzzing restaurant beside a little strip of water, with outside seating as well as being big inside. All pizzas a can be ordered with a gf base for a $3 supplement. We shared a prosciutto and arugula pizza and it was quite delicious. When it was brought to the table, the waiter announced it as gf, which instill confidence. Some of the gelatos are gf, and several salad and other options. Would definitely return, this is a gem of a place for coeliacs.

Delicious pizza, albeit expensive, but I had enough for leftovers and it was still very good. Two people could share one though, even the 10” GF one, it’s hearty. Allergy was noted and the cleaning protocols were explained—oven would be cleaned, fresh tools, gloves, etc, but they can’t guarantee kitchen air is free from contamination. I was satisfied with the cleaning measures though and I did not get sick. Robert himself even went around the restaurant to chat with tables and enjoying telling me about his GF flour from Italy and how to work with GF flours when baking. I name-dropped this app as the reason I came in, and we should always make restaurants aware of it when we can because there’s power in numbers!

I was very excited to go here after seeing and hearing great things about their gluten free options and precautions for celiac and cross contamination. However, the evening ended up disappointing at dessert. I will say we had no issues with the pizza being safe.

The incident I was extremely disappointed with was not only did they gluten one of our 2 diners with celiac, after we emphasized multiple times the severity of it, but that they did not apologize when it occurred.

We decided to order gelato and they confirmed twice ALL gelatos were gluten free and safe. My friend ordered the hazelnut gelato, took one bite and could tell there was gluten from the texture of a crunch. Upon asking the waiter what was in it and confirming it was gluten free it was clear he did not double check and shared he was told it was gluten free. Upon checking the label he realized there was wheat flour. Rather than sincerely apologizing he shifted blame saying he was told it was gluten free.

After this, the manager came over to our group and did not address the problem directly. My friend who was glutened had to. Once again, rather than apologizing he shifted blame onto their distributor saying all their gelatos are supposed to be gluten free.

Overall, it was very unfortunate because we enjoyed the ambiance and gluten free pizza. However, after how they handled the situation I cannot in good conscious go back.

Got a GF pizza and some cider. Tasted great! Server noted my celiac disease for the chef and said they wipe down the oven for GF items. They have salads here too if you wanna play it super safe.

Absolutely outstanding GF pizza that we will no longer eat after my son was cross contaminated. Very sad to let go. If you’re not sensitive you should eat here!

Had an excellent meal here, the GF pizza was THE BEST, even for a heated up leftover this morning - almost tasted even better! I love it, as well as the Gem lettuce salad, which was outstanding. My husband loved his burger, I was jealous as there was no GF bun option (if the GF pizza is this good, surely chef can come up w/ a bun option, pretty please!!!). This is a bit off the beaten path, but has a nice outdoor seating area, cannot wait to come back to try more pizzas and salads. It was really THAT GOOD.

Ate here today with no issues! I went during an “off” time…4pm. They ask if you’re celiac and if so your pizza takes 25 minutes extra due to their precautions to make sure there is no cross contamination. Just thankful I didn’t get sick and pizza was pretty good.

We got here and were told that the gf crust was made from a wheat flour with gluten removed. My sister and I (both celiac) were very confused. We asked the manager and he pointed us to a Fioreglut - a gluten free flour from Italy - which looked like it was NOT made from wheat. We ended up ordering a soppresata pizza which was delicious. Crust was thicker than I typically like but good enough that the non gf guy at the table enjoyed it. I did however feel a bit sick later after eating here (I’m very sensitive)— but my sister was fine. So unclear on the safety aspect.

Very tasty gluten free crust. Great patio atmosphere on the river. 4 stars only because the pizza overall was just okay (arugula and prosciutto). My husband said the same about his non-GF pizza. He’s been here before and said other of their pizzas were good so maybe this was just an off-day.

Today I had the absolute best pizza I have ever had. As a gal with celiac I’m always extremely nervous to try new places especially when they aren’t reviewed extensively on my favorite gluten free app (@findmeglutenfree) but I am SO happy that @meghan_matt suggested @robertspizzaco. When we first got there I saw that they offered gluten free crust but I was worried about cross contamination. I asked the server about their cross contamination policy and he told me everything is cooked in the same space. I asked (more like begged - bc I wanted this pizza so bad) for the possibility of them cooking my pizza on a clean/separate pan. & they agreed! This meal was incredible. I ordered the Cali Italia Pizza - asiago, mozzarella, and Gorgonzola cheese finished with fig preserve, prosciutto di parma, balsamic reduction, and shaved Parmigiano Reggiano. I could have done without the Gorgonzola but WOW. Next time I am in Chicago I will no doubt go back to Robert’s. Best part? Didn’t get sick. Beyond impressed 👏🏻🍕🌆

Absolutely fantastic gluten free pizzas! They make their crust in house... it does not taste gluten free. It is the opposite of the typical, super thin GF crust or gummy-ness that many places get; the crust has a great bite, with a bit of springiness! Lots of fun topping combinations or you can build your own. Highly recommend!
