They go through every precaution to make sure everything is gluten free and safe from cross contamination. The staff is very friendly and careful as well.

I’m celiac and have eaten here several times without issues. The staff changes their gloves and has separate utensils and gluten-free ingredients for making pizzas on their gluten-free crust. They also have vegan cheese & their pizzas are great!

My son has Celiac and Type 1 Diabetes and Gluten will make his blood glucose numbers spike like crazy. I was very impressed with the care they took to clarify if it was a preference or allergy and the fact that they clearly understand cross contamination. They even state that for heavier allergies they will prepare in a completely separate work station.

This is a not a great option for those sensitive to cross contamination. The pizza is made in an “assembly line” type of way, and although the first team member changed gloves and used a separate gluten free pan, the second person put on toppings without changing gloves and then used the same pizza cutter as the other pizzas - I wasn’t able to catch him to ask him if there was a separate cutter or if I could leave it unsliced. If you are not sensitive to cross contamination, they have both a gluten free vegan crust and a gluten free cauliflower crust and are open late if you need something in a pinch.

Went in between lunch and dinner time for better interaction with the staff. Cauliflower crust with toppings prepared separately from the rest of the line in the back. Great pizza and did not get sick. I got the chicken with some veggie toppings and they couldn’t guarantee pepperoni was totally gf.

Today was the first day of our vacation and we got take out from here because of the great reviews. My son was vomiting within a few hours. Please do not eat here if you are a true celiac . We tried to call them many times afterward and they did not answer the phone.

Most of the time it’s delicious so I’ve ordered from them a lot. But they’ve gotten me really sick twice so I’m done. Really great gluten free options, but if you have celiac you need to be explicit about your cross contamination sensitivity

I’ve had their pizza and their gluten free dairy free cheese sticks and I’m just so thankful it’s an option. I’ve only ordered delivery through the apps so idk about cross contamination risks but my I didn’t react to my food.
