California Pizza Kitchen

I felt incredibly safe, as the server mentioned they have a separate area where they prepare gluten-free pizzas with separate ingredients and a separate oven. He delivered everyone else’s (non-gf) food first and then said he would go wash his hands before bringing my food back to the table. I got a margherita pizza (and it even had a little gluten-free marker on it). It was absolutely delicious, and I had no reaction.

Really great experience overall.

Their training is impeccable. Such a relief to be able to eat a meal out with friends and not feel stressed about it. I love that they label “made without gluten containing ingredients” differently from their celiac safe choices (which is a small but good selection of cauliflower crust pizzas.) All restaurants should follow their excellent model!

Decent pizza, not a wide selection, but great quality ingredients and they definitely protect celiac diners. Would definitely grab a pizza here when I’m craving pizza and want something close by.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The food was delicious! Our server, Omar, was amazing! His wife has to eat gluten free so it was a great comfort knowing he really understands.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

They have a special gluten free menu. Care is taken to avoid cross contamination and our waitress, Cristin, was very knowledgeable about gluten and the menu items that my daughter could have. The gluten free pizza was delicious.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The dedicated gluten-free pizzas (there are 4 plus plain cheese) are yummy and crispy. Much better than average! My 11-yr old celiac son says best GF pizza crust other than homemade that he's had in almost 3 GF years. Also lots of good hearty GF salad options, and we had a very helpful knowledgable server too. Will return!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Our favorite waitress here is Chris, she is very knowledgable about gluten. My husband is gluten intolerant & it is difficult to eat out sometimes. We have had no issues since they introduced the new gluten free menu. Enjoy ~ Jen

Celiac friendly?

Yes

We went to try the gluten free pizza, the menu is marked with certain items being gluten free and others not, but with cauliflower crust, it was very confusing and the waiter had absolutely zero knowledge of what gluten even is. After asking so many questions about what has gluten and what doesn’t, the waiter proceeded to ask if we want bread brought to the table… anyways it was never mentioned that items with the certified gluten free would NOT be certified gluten free anymore if you made ANY modifications, including adding a basic topping. Overall, I was very uncomfortable the entire time because I knew there was a high chance that I would eat gluten because of the lack of knowledge and training.

This particular location doesn't have the certified gluten-free pizza that can be found at most of their full restaurant locations. However, I had the BBQ Chicken pizza on cauliflower crust without any bad side effects.

When we first went up and I asked if they had a gluten free menu they asked if it was preference or allergy. When they heard it was celiac they explained how they make sure the food is kept safe. My daughter had the plain pizza and enjoyed it (it’s a cauliflower crust.) She didn’t get sick. Overall really good experience.
