California Pizza Kitchen

Celiac safe for only their Certified Gluten Free pizzas. There are five of them. They are pretty good and I’m happy to have an option.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Safe gf pizza. I wish they also had safe salad, but when I asked, she said only the pizza ordered from the gf certified menu can be guaranteed safe - no salads. Pizza was fine, nothing special. A safe (yet kind of boring) place to go when you’re in the city.

I debated whether or not to leave a review because I didn’t actually chance eating here. I was seated and they did have a “certified GF” pizza menu —although it’s only 3 options of pizza. They also have a cauliflower crust option too. The place was pretty dead as it was a little after 4pm. After more than 15 min the waitress came over and said, “have you been helped yet?” This was very absurd given she was clearly the ONLY waitress. There was one other table besides me dining there. I order the GF pizza. I tell her I have an extreme mushroom allergy. She says she’ll write it down. So things are looking up. Then, she says “would you like bread with your pizza”. Me: “um, I want the gluten free pizza” her: “yeah, but do you want the bread still? It comes with the pizza”. ....Me: umm is it gluten free? Her: no, it just comes with pizza. Me: no, I’m not ordering GF for the fun of it, so I don’t want bread. She walked off to go put the order in. At that point I was too scared of getting mushroomed or glutened so I asked her to cancel the order and I just left. After the first 1/2 hour I wasn’t willing to risk it. If the waitress is that clueless I can’t chance what is communicated to the kitchen.

Celiac friendly?

No

UPDATE: they are certified

The manager courteously explained the process: the cooks will wash their hands, handle with gloves, and rice flour is used on all (including non GF) cooking pans to stick them.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Good pizza at the 3rd Street location in San Francisco. No reaction after. Order with manager to be sure.

Celiac friendly and very accommodating to allergies (my daughter is nightshade and they prepared the GF food without).

GF items are clearly labeled. A decent amount of options. Taste is great, as usual.

Yes

Tasty and a full GF menu.

The pizza here is really good, especially the bbq chicken which is what I always get. I believe there are 5 certified GF pizzas to order in which they follow strict guidelines to keep the pizzas as safe as possible from contamination. Great pizza option!

I love California Pizza kitchen and have been going here since I was kid! I was recently diagnosed with Celiac and wanted to try their gluten-free pizza. Very kind experience and the manager delivered my pizza (traditional cheese), told me every precaution (changed their gloves twice while making) and even had my pizza separated. He said he could mot guarantee cross contamination and unfortunately, he was right. I got sick after eating and upset I can no longer eat at my one of my favorite pizza establishments. It was my fault risking it at a PIZZA place but also felt confident that since I was okay at Olive Garden, I would be okay here too. If you are not as sensitive as me, go ahead and enjoy! Amazing food!
