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.

Ran out of gluten free crust. They have no pasta options for kids.

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.

Limited selection of gf pizzas. Separate toppings for gf pizzas. I’m a sensitive celiac and I’ve had no issues at all.

Good experience! I ordered the validated GF pizza. The waitress seemed new and she wasn’t sure what I was talking about but she spoke with the staff and they made my pizza separately and safely! It was great!

I’ve never eaten here in person yet, but I’ve ordered off of DoorDash four times with no issues. I order off their Gluten Free menu which they state they take precautions to prevent cross contact and is prepared in its own space based on procedures developed by The Gluten Intolerance Group.

The pizzas aren’t the best but they do hit the spot and is great for people who can’t eat gluten because our pizza options are limited anyways.

Had a good experience here. They can make several of the pizzas gf and they certify that it is gf. Other menu items they won’t guarantee no cross contamination. Overall I felt pretty safe. The pizza was quite good as well

They have gluten free labeled on their menu. Specifically for their pizzas they have 5 “validated gluten free” options. These 5 are prepared in a separate area of the kitchen and brought out by a manager and flagged gluten free. The 5 gluten free pizzas are cheese, pepperoni, margherita, mushroom/sausage/pepperoni, and BBQ chicken. The crust is thin and mostly crispy like many other gluten free crusts. Pizza was hot out of the oven.
