They have a few pizzas that are made with. Certified GF procedures. The pizza itself is very tasty. One word of caution: When I went to this location, they brought my plate out alongside my friend’s normal calzone. I noticed that some of the Parmesan cheese on top of her calzone had made its way onto my plate and pizza. I pointed it out and the remade my pizza, but if I hadn’t noticed, I probably would’ve gotten very sick. I didn’t have this issue at the Hamilton Place location, so just be vigilant if you go with a gluten-eater!

Safety measures at this restaurant were extremely high! As a super allergic Coeliac, the server was highly knowledgeable of CC and spoke to the kitchen about the need for contamination prevention. They have a separate area to prepare GF, celiac safe pizza and even delivered our food separately to ensure zero issues! Had the wings and a pizza! A big thank you to Sara for the outstanding service!

Tried the gluten bbq chicken pizza with dairy free cheese. It was disgusting. The bbq sauce was not sweet. It was like hot sauce. The fake cheese was like mucous. Wish I had stayed with a veggie gf pizza without any cheese crust was soggy

Educated staff. GF pizza made on dedicated line. Other menu offerings are not. Staff member advised we only eat the gf pizza bc of cross contamination risk with salads etc. We followed her advice & had zero problems. Yummy gf pizza.

Make sure to stick to the topping options only on the gf menu. I have gotten sick when I added on extra things not on the list, but if you stick the the list and mention it is an allergy I've had no problems.

my children who aren't as sensitive to gluten as i am have no problems with this pizza. i usually end up with symptoms of cross-contamination which is understandable, considering they are throwing pizza dough in the air and the flour goes everywhere. it is overpriced and not that good. but it's pizza, and i don't have to make it myself.

Though the gluten-free pizza is not the best I've had, it still was tasty. They are aware of celiac and will do whatever they need to accommodate the allergy.

I came to Mellow Mushroom because of the great reviews for their GF pizza but I was really disappointed. I ordered the GF veggie pizza with olive oil instead of red sauce. This is my typical order for any GF pizzeria. I've had many good GF pizza crusts but the crust here was inedible. I couldn't even cut it with a serrated knife. The toppings were either over cooked, not fresh, or both. My pizza was overpriced for what it was. From what I could see, pizza is the only GF item on the menu.

On the plus side, the staff were friendly and helpful with all my questions. My waitress said they make all their GF pizzas in another area totally separate from the other food.

Since the last review in 2012 I think there is great improvement! The crust is tender and thin (typical in GF) with a nice crusty edge. The toppings fresh and top of the line. 4 GF Beers to choose from. The staff treats the GF orders with extra care. I enjoyed my meal with no issues.

I think their toppings are great. However, they use Still Riding crust and it is pretty bad. It doesn't take long for the crust to start getting soggy. Plus, I do not like the taste of the crust. I also tried a Mellow Mushroom in Pensacola, FL and had the same results. Th server asked me if I wanted a box to take what was left with me. When I said, "NO.", He said that very few did.

I usually just scrape the topping off the crust & eat that.

The GF crust isn't bad but if you put some tasty toppings on it it's amazing. They also have some GF beers available.

Waiter was super knowledgeable. Marked all our GF food and took precautions to make sure no cross contamination. Made pizza in a separate location, switched gloves and utensils and a different waiter brought the GF pizza out separately from the other food. Our celiac daughter said it was the best pizza ever and she didn’t get sick!
