Okay this place was a total disappointment. They charge way too much for way too little and not a lot of flavor. I didn’t care much for the crust and the pizza was smaller than I’m used too for GF personal pies also it cost $17! I’m never going back. I also had a bad experience where they charged my card $46 for the $17 pizza...

The staff was incredibly helpful in making me a pizza I could eat. The menu is labeled and the staff was willing to go to the kitchen and verify what ingredients could be prepared in the back vs. on the line. When there were ingredients that were not prepped in the gf area, staff was great at substituting and making me a delicious pizza. They've changed the sizing/pricing, so the pizza is smaller than it used to be, but it is also priced at the small price + $2- a better option when just 1-2 people need gf. Would definitely return.

It is so tasty but my daughter and I (both celiacs) have not felt well after eating there several times. Eat there with caution if you are celiac!

The only safe thing to order is the gluten free pizza off the gluten free menu. I wouldn't try to ask for topics not listed there or the salads, etc. but the pizza crust is the best I've had eating out. It actually has texture and flavor that doesn't resemble a cracker.

The food takes awhile since its cooked to order but never disappoints. Nicole the server is fantastic, and always remembers what we like to order. I don't do gluten or dairy and they always are extremely accommodating and friendly.

Our waiter was very helpful and assured my pizza would not be cross contaminated. It might have been the best gf pizza I've ever had, and definitely the coolest looking. I had trouble picking out which pizza I wanted because there were so many to choose from- I don't recall the name but I chose the one with Roma tomatoes, spinach, feta cheese, and the green pesto sauce that they decorated in a swirl on top! So cool!

I ordered the 12inch gluten free pizza without cheese, caramelized onions, black olives and mushrooms. The pizza was ok and not my favorite dough made from sorghum, amaranth, teff and tapioca flour blend plus xanthum gum as it was a bit chewy. The Angry Orchard cider was good and the service was good too.

Went here with my GF kiddo. The staff was very friendly. Let the server know about the celiac. Told us which of the pizzas were GF. Kiddo decided on plain cheese. We were told they changed gloves, separate oven, etc., for gf. Good experience!
