They are very good about helping with questions. I ordered GF pizza and a salad. Both were awesome. Definitely recommend!

I have two celiac children. Both loved the gluten free pizza- my youngest loved it so much we went twice on our vacation. Shes super picky so that speaks volumes. The server also had a celiac kid- told the kitchen to watch for cross contamination. She also said the crust was made from Yukon potatoes and I could taste it once she said that- it was good! No stomach issues either time so they appear to be careful in the kitchen

I’ve been gluten free for almost 15 years. This was the best by far, gluten free pizza that I have ever had. A lot of variations too! You won’t be sorry. Call ahead though to make sure they are available. I was disappointed once that after a busy night they were sold out.

Had a gluten free and vegan cheese pizza there and it was great! We went late after a concert. They closed at 11 PM. There’s outdoor seating where you could have a dog excellent. And a nice atmosphere near the river and convention center. Not sure about food safety but I could pretty much get anything on the regular menu for pizza on my gluten-free pizza. Thin crust, fresh sauce - just like in Italy.

Salad was garbage. I’d say skip that but my husband and I shared two gf pizzas and they were pretty good. There’s a good selection of pizzas to choose from. It’s a thin NY style crust. The margherita pizza was my favorite. We also got a prosciutto/arugula. It wasn’t for me but my husband liked it.

Just a heads up about the gf pizza… it took an hour and when you look at it, you will be unsure why. The waiter warned us that the gf pizza takes longer and it sure did! I would give it an 8 out of 10 due to the healthy amount of cheese but it was definitely underwhelming.

The best pizza I have found in SWFL so far! They offer two sizes and the crust tastes homemade. The staff is knowledgeable on allergies and the pizza was everything I was hoping it would be. I will be back!

They had no dedicated gf prep area nor clear gf menu. Staff said their salads and wings are gf, and they had gf pizza crusts. Wait staff said their pizza ingredients were not all gf and seemed confused when I asked about changing gloves, etc. He also tried to tell me vegan was safe - and was unaware some vegan items contain wheat.

Our server, Alex, was really great with GF and was super sweet. The hosts also knew how the pizza was prepared, they said they cannot guarantee cross-contamination but I did not get sick after eating (impressive because I’m sensitive to gluten). Great place, would go again!

Had a gluten free vegetarian pizza. It was good. The fresh basil made it special. They were able to substitute vegan cheese. The house salad was good with a red wine vinaigrette. The waiter was attentive to my needs.

Love the margarita pizza best GF pizza I’ve ever had and I’ve never gotten sick!

The BEST gluten free pizza, the server was very knowledgeable and great! Just let them know your celiac and cross contamination is a concern and they’ll talk to back and/or make a note.

I was excited that there was gluten free food. The waitress was very nice. She informed me that there was gluten free pizza and chicken wings. I hadn’t had gf wings before so I got that. It was delicious but about ten minutes after I ate I had to run to the bathroom. I was so sad it made me sick.

Great gluten free crust (although thin like most GF crust options) and they even had oven roasted roasted wings that were safe. If I ordered again I’d ask for the wings to be roasted a little longer to try to get them crispy. There was a $3 up charge for the gluten free crust.

While they do offer GF crust, and I didn’t get sick, I was with a large family group and kept trying to not pay attention that all the food and the pizza is made in same oven/kitchen with, no effort to stop cross contamination. So as Celiac, not a safe place. Not getting sick does not equal safe.

FANTASTIC pizza!! Taste is delicious and texture is completely normal not gritty at all! Wish we had one back home in the north! Worth the visit! They charge $2 to add onto any pizza you wish for gf crust. I had Al's carne pizza and it was great! Came back again from Michigan to get Als Carne pizza! Fabulous again!

Had lunch at capones today. I had the regular margarita pizza which was wonderful. Hubby had the gluten free version and said it was the best gluten free crust he's had so far. The coal fired oven makes the crust very crispy . good stuff!

I was very nervous about eating here but based on the reviews, I took the risk. The wait staff was great and seemed knowledgeable. They took my concerns seriously and did everything they could to ensure I was safe. The pizza was pretty good but it is pretty small. I did have gluten symptoms the next morning but they were fairly slight considering that it is a pizza place and could have been so much worse.

This place was AMAZING! Had the gluten free pizza, which was fantastic. The service was spectacular. Our friends had a regular pizza and my husband has the pasta with chicken and shrimp he said it was one of the best things he ever ate. Also, prices weren't bad. The gluten free pizza was only $10.

GF pizza was delicious, had a lot of fun here with our family. Both my son and I have celiac, no issues the next day. Like most restaurants they only offer the small sized crust which is usually fine, wish they'd start offering a medium crust so 2 people can share 1 pizza.
