California Pizza Kitchen

I was thrilled the restaurant could provide a safe gluten free pizza for my son with an anaphylactic wheat allergy. They have certified gluten free pizzas they cook safely and separately, and a manager spoke with me and brought it out to us directly. We rarely eat out so it was a treat!

Ordered through GrubHub tonight, I got the mushroom pizza and the barbecue chicken. Both showed up with a receipt that said “gluten-free see manager”. And each box was sealed with a gluten-free sticker. Pizzas were good, the barbecue chicken was my favorite. Did not get sick!

I have celiac disease and became sick after eating here. I was uncomfortable when the waiter had food particles all over him. I explained that I was ordering off the gluten free menu due to celiac disease and a severe wheat allergy. I also asked if the policies that I am aware of from other locations were followed here such as change to blue gloves, separate storage, prep area, and pizza delivered by manager. He assured me all policies would be followed. The pizza was brought out by the hostess and it h a toothpick marked gluten free. I didn’t eat anything else that day, brought my own bottled drink, and didn’t use their silverware. The GF margherita pizza was delicious, but not worth the severe sickness.

The pizza is amazing! There are 4 pizza options that are certified gluten free. We go often and I have never had any issue. The Margarita pizza is my favorite!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The GF BBQ chicken Pizza was great but crust could be crispier. The grilled vegetable salad was phenomenal, added the grilled chicken but be sure to specify Gluten allergy as the chicken is normally grilled on same grille as wheat tortillas. They will line grille with aluminum foil if requesting GF.

While the pizza they have is delicious and I've never had a bad reaction, they are frequently out of stock of their gluten free pizza crust.

New improved gluten free menu and pizza was great!

They have gone through a huge training program regarding celiac disease & I was very impressed with their knowledge & service. Everyone was aware of cross contamination concerns from patrons. They now have pizza made in the morning before the regular pizza is prepped. They only use rice flour in all of their prep. The pizza is stored in containers & cooked in a separate oven. The manager delivered my BBQ Chicken pizza with a smile!!!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Very disappointed that the only GF offerings were salads. Also, on the back of the menu it states that they cannot be certain that their items are not cross contaminated with gluten products.

Do not eat here if worried about cross contamination. A restaurant employee that works all over the airport told me EVERYTHING is cross contaminated.

I was put off my the menu and lack of gf options but the waiter assured me that they would take cross contamination precautions. I ended up with a lovely salad and rather tasty cauliflower crust chicken bbq pizza! Enough for next day lunch too! Will definetly go back and no symptoms.

Been here many times. Have gotten their gluten free pizza I think it tastes really good. Most likely it has been cross contaminated at this location. However I have not had a reaction.

There is a difference between the regular gluten free pizzas and certified gluten free pizzas. Be sure to specify when ordering. I got the certified GF cheese pizza. It was delicious and they will deliver within the casino. I had mine delivered to bingo. Very good. Did not get sick.
