They make the pizza and toast the sandwiches in the same spaces. You can have a cold sandwich.

I have eaten both takeout and in the restaurant, and I have not been contaminated once

I am a very big fan of their food. I have not tried something there I have not liked that was gluten free

The menu lists gluten free crusts and cauliflower crust options for pizza! They even have Daiya cheese for us dairy free people. You could also request your sandwich to come on a gown free bun. The doggos can also join you on the order patio seating.

I was in the Alexandria area from out of town, and utilized Find Me GF to find a safe spot for lunch. While the restaurant is not dedicated gluten free by any means, the staff is accommodating and seemed well versed in cross contamination risks. Most of the pizzas can be made GF (one size) and sandwiches can be made on an Udi’s bun. I played it safe and got a sandwich. The server did assure me the sauces are in squeeze bottles- not a knife/spread situation. The sandwich arrived with a gluten free sticker on the paper, which I appreciated, and I did not get sick!

I always enjoy their sandwiches, which they do warm in a toaster or oven. The Cubano is the best!

I asked them the first time and was told they wrap them in foil first to avoid cross contamination. I’m celiac and have never noticed cross contamination issues.
