We had a terrible experience. I specifically asked that it be noted that one of our meals was to be marked with gluten allergy. I even said to our waiter to make sure it’s to be handled with care while prepping and that the pizza be cut separately and safely. Someone else brought our food out and so I asked because I was watching how it was handled from our table. She said it was not marked as allergy and it was handled normally. So I asked for a bill for what we did get and we left. I’m not coming back. They lack attention to detail and we’re not friendly to begin with. Annoyed mostly with having to work I guess. We will not be coming back as this place is not safe and not accommodating . Very disappointing.

Ate here no problem! The certified gf menu is small but the bbq pizza is delicious. There are many other gf options on the reg menu but they do not guarantee cross contamination on those items.

Absolutely terrible service. All of the pizzas we ordered were terrible, but the gluten free one was terrible in addition to being mushy. Just a terrible 100 dollar experience.

My gluten free pizza was hard as a rock. Unable to cut it. Or tear it. Or chew it. How do other people rate this pizza as good?!?! Worst gluten free pizza I have ever had

Reviewing just the pizza... yes, a gfree crust is back on the menu. It's carefully prepared and quite good. Server was kind and patient with our "gluten free questions." We will add this place as a good option for pizza.

We used to go here for their gluten free pizza. My 4 year old is celiac. We went today and they have pulled the GF pizza from the menu pending a review with GIG to make it better. Disappointing. We had to leave since the remaining GF options aren't really friendly for kids - basically salads. It will be good when the pizza is back, but not until then.

They have above average GF pizza. I wish they were more knowledgeable about other Gf options on their menu though.

Eaten here 2x and have not gotten sick. The crust does taste gluten free (find me a gluten free crust that doesn't taste gluten free), but it's what's on top of the crust that is the real deal.

Impressed that you could ask for their certified GF pizzas on the kids menu. Our coeliac daughter was very happy with her cheese pizza which came out with a GF flag by a differed server with gloves on. No ill effects. It has been very hard finding safe and appealing choices for her on our travels in America so definitely a happy customer.

It’s always a risk at pizza places that aren’t dedicated GF, but we felt assured that the staff takes good precautions to avoid cross contamination here. And the pizza was very tasty.
