They have verified gluten free pizzas by the Gluten Intolerance Group. They follow strict procedures for preparation. The pizza was good but the crust was a little burnt. I did not get sick.

The pizza is fairly good for gluten free. It allows me to scratch the pizza itch without getting sick. There are exactly 5 items (all pizza) certified by the gluten intolerance group. There are other items on the menu without gluten containing ingredients, but cross contamination is an issue, so I’ve never tried them.

I used to LOVE this restaurant: pizza, pasta, salads, egg rolls, soup...all delicious!

The gluten free pizza was great. I normally don't love cauliflower crusts, but this one was super good. When I ordered they asked if it was an allergy.

Barely edible GF crust; indiscernible from the box it comes in. Kitchen quality overall has plummeted at this location over the past 2 years. No reason to eat here unless you hate yourself and want to overpay someone for the privilege of doing so.

The crust is decent. They only have a few truly gf pizzas, but the bbq chicken pizza was good.

Their pizza was gross compared to today's standards for GF pizza. It's tasteless and super thin. I've given CPK multiple tries, but on the most recent try I got extremely sick. I haven't had that severe a reaction in years. GIG trained? I don't think so...

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.
