Ordered pizza for my Celiac daughter. Hubby and I thought we would order the GF pizza just for ourselves… it was that good. Great protocols and our daughter felt fine. No issues.

Review
Wow. Just wow. (In a good way)
Went in today and asked if GF was actually GF (you guys get it) and YES he said they have a GF crust but if you say celiac they know to avoid cross contact and wash everything. He said you have to expect it will take a little longer so you should know that, but otherwise I felt really safe eating pizza here.
I also tried the fries (dedicated fryer) and they were pretty good. Skip the cheese sauce though— didn’t make me sick just didn’t taste good.

Review
We ate here tonight and it was wonderful! I had pizza and it was delicious. The owner confirmed that they have GF pasta, a separate oven and fryer. He also said that starting next week he will have buns to make all the sandwiches GF. His only request is that we call ahead if we plan on having something fried so he has time to turn on the fryer. I was amazed at how dedicated he was to having a safe and delicious restaurant for people with Celiac!

Good pizza cooked in separate oven, and they offer multiple sizes. Very knowledgeable.
Fries are cooked in a separate fryer upon request. Many Mexican items are gluten-free. Highly recommend!
