GF deep dish is good! Never have gotten sick and their signature salad is sooo good
Don’t get the deep dish gluten free pizza. We waited for 1.5 hours and the crust was horrible. It was so hard that we couldn’t even get a knife through it.
Very concerned about cross contamination and was delighted with the food. Had the deep dish pizza ( first time since celiac) and was so pleased with the taste and texture. The service was great. They have some really good people there.

Went here on a whim since I saw some good reviews about it and had a wonderful experience! It is really cute, in a good area, and was not packed on a week night. The staff were all extremely nice and took precaution when told about my allergy. Overall, the food was excellent, had the GF deep dish as well as some chicken wings which were made to be gluten free. I will definitely come here again when I am back in town!
Great experience here! Got both the gf thin crust and the gf deep dish and both were sooooo good! They seem to have very good procedures in place to prevent cross contact.
I’m celiac. Had the deep dish pizza and it was like nothing I’d ever had! It was amazingly tasty! No problems with it. Our server was very knowledgeable. I will go back!
In my 12 years of being gluten free, I have eaten more gluten free pizza than you can imagine. Some of them tasted OK and some of them did not. This is the first gluten free pizza I have eaten that was delicious. We ordered the deep dish pizza, and I was concerned with the size when it arrived. We can usually polish off an entire pizza between the two of us, but we actually had leftovers to take home. The leftovers were delicious too. We also ordered the smaller salad that was listed as gluten free. It was huge, and very good. Our server was knowledgeable and helpful.
Awesome gf deep dish!
Cant remember if they said they have their own oven, but they did say they use seperate clean utensils, brought me our a spatula to serve seperately.
Pizza was delicious!

I called and spoke to the manager about the safety of celiac disease dining. He strongly advised against someone with celiac disease dining there. He said flour is constantly in the air in the kitchen. He said they have a gluten free crust but the toppings are exposed to gluten. The same for salads and toppings. I appreciated his advice.
Our server was amazing and really understood celiac. He took time to explain how they have GF dedicated panda for both deep and think crust pizzas. All the kitchen staff switches gloves and they have a separate area where they make and roll their GF dough so there isn’t any cross contamination. I felt reassured that I would be safe eating there. I really enjoyed my deep dish GF pizza and cannot wait to go again. Their GF crust in my opinion was wonderful but I can see who others may not like the thickness or that’s it’s a crispy crust and not fluffy. My family said their Non GF one was the same and they also really enjoyed it.
Crossed Contamination. They are very confused on how to do the food gluten free. By the time you get it it’s cold hard like plastic. Just be careful.
“One bite cured two years of celiac trauma”
“Are you in heaven?”
Those are just two things friends said to me when I sent them a pic of my gf deep dish pizza. It was wonderful and the staff was very friendly and familiar with celiac disease. I did not get sick!
I am here for a work trip. They bought a GF pizza. I am highly sensitive and NEVER got sick!
