Solid attempt to cater to celiac, but ultimately unsuccessful. Waiting for my son to finish being sick after eating their cauliflower pizza.
Bertucci's has a "gluten sensitive" menu. I called ahead to ask what precautions they take for cooking pizza and the person I spoke with said that the chefs use frozen cauliflower crust and cook it on a clean sheet in the oven. They also use different utensils to dole out the sauce and cut the pizza. However, my actual waitress said the food is better for people who are sensitive and not celiac. I ate the pizza anyway and seemed to be fine, but I'm also not particularly sensitive to cross-contact. I would recommend calling ahead and asking your waiter/waitress lots of questions.

I called here before I went, and the manager was very exited to tell me that they use all separate utensils, and take all these precautions to avoid cross contamination. I've eaten here once and their gluten free menu was decent sized but not huge. I did not get sick after though which is awesome!

What a fiasco at this restaurant. I called in a gluten-free pizza over the phone when I got to the counter I forgot to check. I made it to my car and open to find a fully gluten Pizza. I go back in and they don't even feel bad about it only offered to pay for the toppings which amounted to $32 for a small gluten free Pizza. Avoid
Ordered delivery for a small gf pizza (online ordering did not have other options readily available). Pizza includes large gf surcharge and came to about $25 before tip fees or taxes and it was very mediocre
There is a small gluten free selection but the food is very good and the service is excellent.
No gluten free menu. Only option is cauliflower crust upgrade on pizza
The cauliflower pizza (always in the small size) is lovely. I like mine with zucchini. I also have to leave off the tomato sauce, and have pesto instead, but do enjoy the mozzerella cheese. Deffinately GERD and gluten free friendly. I am also vegetarian So this is a great choice for me.
