Review


Best gluten free pizza I've EVER had on MULTIPLE OCCASIONS...and that's saying a lot from, coming from me!

I have been eating gluten free due to a gluten intolerance (not full-blown Celiac) since about 2012 and I have watched as company after company has tried its hand at making a good (or even GREAT) gluten free pizza in-restaurant, and I must say, most have failed...but not Heartland Pizza on Ramada Way in Ashwaubenon/Green Bay! They have achieved GREATNESS.

The gluten free pizza at Heartland's has a thin, flakey crust which is prepared fresh and in-house (not from the freezer) using a special gluten free flour, the sauces (which include a tangy tomato, a mouthwatering garlic, and a basil pesto, just to name a few) are delicious, and there are a multitude of toppings to choose from (including some unique ones like peppadew peppers, artichoke hearts, and prosciutto, which you don't ever find in chain pizza shops or really in many other places at all).

The BEST PART about Heartland for me (in addition to how delicious the pizza is)? My wife and I have now had their pizza THREE times and we have never ONCE gotten sick from it (no mouth sores, rashing, or intestinal/gastric issues, as is typical if we consume gluten-containing items). I cannot say the same for even Dominos, which, although it has its own gluten free pizza, cannot compete in any way, shape, or form with Heartland, on taste OR gluten-free friendliness.

Oh, and before I forget: Heartland also has LOCAL, Wisconsin-brewed gluten free beer and many other gluten free options (including salad) to choose from.

Simply put, I can't recommend Heartland Pizza enough, especially for my gluten-free friends and the Celiac sufferers out there would would REALLY love to be treated like royalty by their local pizza place, as opposed to the second-class citizens we get treated as by the majority of restaurants that still mistakenly treat "Gluten Free" as some kind of fad. Just make sure that if you're Celiac that you ask for cross-contamination protocols to be followed and emphasize that you have an allergy and not just a gluten-free preference, to ensure you don't get sick.

I would give Heartland TEN STARS, if I could, and will be back VERY soon! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

NOTE: If you get take-out from Heartland, and if the pizza is a little cold when you get it home, use the written instructions Heartland staff provides you to reheat the pizza in an oven and NEVER in a microwave, as a microwave will ruin the awesomeness which is Heartland's homemade crust.
