The ambiance of the place was pretty cool with like a 60’s feel. They have a gluten free menu with a pizza, salads, and three pastas on it. It mentions something to the effect that while they do the best that can it’s not guaranteed that flower didn’t get on it. I got a side salads and a gluten’s free pizza and it was awesome. It’s one of the better pizzas I have gotten since diagnosed with celiac. The waiter seemed knowledgeable when I said I had celiac and said she would let the kitchen know. I waited till the next morning to write the review and I haven’t had any issues.
This place has such a homey feel to it. There is something on the menu that everyone can get and enjoy. That's what I loved about this place even with my daughters allergy she was able to order actual food, and not have to resort to just a salad. She had the gluten free pizza, and absolutely loved it.

I’ve eaten here a few time. You have to ask a decent amount of questions if you want something other than gluten free pizza. Pizza is great and salad is good!

Very tasty. Very generous toppings. They say gluten ‘friendly’ but hasn’t caused us any problems after several visits. Really like this place.
My family and I are all GF. My younger son is the picky eater of the bunch. We were in Phoenix for one night only after a week's vacation. We found this place and called ahead to make sure they had GF options. They have pizza and pasta. We ended up sitting at the bar as the place was packed. The bartender was awesome! Super friendly and accommodating. She was very helpful in gaging how much food to order as the portions are big. We split two salads and three pasta dishes and waffle fries. The frys share a fryer but none of us got sick. I usually feel it if the dryer is shared but this time I didn't. The food was amazing. The picky eater had gobbled it up. Highly recommended this place. We would eat here all the time if we lived in Phoenix. Pizza looked delicious too.

Fun atmosphere but lots of gluten in the air. The kids (not GF) were offered dough balls to play with. I ordered GF pasta from the gf menu but I found a regular noodle in my pasta. It tasted great until then :(.
Glutened off a salad (the tortilla strips) after being told they were safe by guest service via email.
Taylor B. With guest services said the GF pasta is cooked separately & the GF pizza dough has no contact with flour at any point.
The staff said otherwise so I went with a salad to be safe. Half way through my meal they said the tortilla strips on my salad is not safe.
The menu is called "gluten friendly" which is scary but a humorous attempt was made. I stuck with a salad to avoid flour cross contamination which is a real possibility here. It was romaine lettuce but since I'm allergic to amaranth (including spinach and chard) they changed gloves before making my salad. How conscientious! Felt safe, didn't get sick.
NOT CELIAC SAFE!! If I could give zero stars I would, but the app forces at least one star. I got the bollo pasta with GF pasta. It was disgusting, no flavor to the sauce and the noodles were falling apart and had a weird texture. I did not finish the dish as I was experiencing symptoms before I was even halfway thru it.
The waitress initially brought me a regular pasta with garlic bread and was rather irritated about returning it.
Has to be the worst GF pizza and pasta I've ever had. Ugh. It's not that hard, people! Get with the times!
