Had a delicious pizza here at Blaze. Staff was nice and very accommodating to my gluten free diet. The girl making my order changed her gloves and put my pizza on a gluten sensitive mat to cook. I had the cauliflower crust and it was wonderful and perfectly crispy on the outside and still chewy inside. (Warning: cauliflower crust contains cheese) But there are 2 other other gluten sensitive crust to check out. The condiments and sauce were tasty. The only thing off is that they had no salt and pepper. Just salt and oregano. Which was odd. But everything else was still good.

The staff were very knowledgeable about gluten free. Changed gloves, separate source for pizza and placed a Matt under the pizza in the oven.

They are proactive about asking if it's an allergy or preference, so they know to change gloves. The gf crust is pressed on a different pizza press and placed on a separate cooking tray to try and minimize cross contamination. I've never had any issues.

Dedicated gluten-free dough, utensils and pizza press. They changed their gloves and cooked my pizza on a separate pan so there was no cross-contamination. Great option for celiacs!

I really liked this place and felt safe. They put the dough on a mat so it’s not on the same surface as the gluten pizza when cooking it. They changed the gloves and made sure no one touched my pizza with gluten hands. They have a certain sauce just for gluten free pizza. They got ingredients from the bottom that weren’t touched and used a clean pizza cutter to cut my pizza. They didn’t seem to mind accommodating. I apologized for being complicated and they were just like it’s not that big of a deal.

Don’t eat here! I got such attitude on the gluten free ask. The girl was so put out that she didn’t even get the toppings from a clean container. I paid for the pizza and threw it out. I will never go there again!!

Went in and ordered a pepperoni pizza with gluten free crust. They asked if it was an allergy or preference. When I said allergy they did a glove change, offered to pull ingredients from the bottom, have a designated red sauce just for gluten free items, and we’re very kind and didn’t act like it was a bother to go through those extra steps. My husband who is not gluten free tried my pizza and said it is no different than his just a little thinner. I’ve ate here many times and will continue to come back!
