Just got this app so this review is late, but I ate here about a month ago and got very sick. I actually came here because I saw the reviews online and they were mostly really good. Their menu even has a note that their food is not recommended for people with celiac because of CC risk. I decided to give it a try and regretted it. A big part of me making an account and started leaving reviews is because I am not sure how places like this have such good reviews. The pizza was not even that great. The crust was like card board and the pizza was strangely sweet.

Absolutely loved their gluten free pizza! My mom is t gluten free but split the pie with me and loved it so much said she’d order it again even though she doesn’t need to!

Lots of interesting specialty pizzas. We highly recommend the butternut, ricotta, Craisin pie!

Only negative was the pitcher of water served to the table was room temperature/warm

By far best pizza I’ve ever had, and I’ve been celiac for over 10 years. They weren’t too sure about cross contamination but when I mentioned celiac they immediately said they’d  use separate knives.

This is a very popular pizzeria. I wish I could eat there, but we cannot. The staff is very knowledgeable and they made it very clear that it’s not safe for celiac’s. But across the street from them in Brookline there is Oath Pizzeria, which is fantastic! And as with them, the staff at Oath is very knowledgeable and pleasant.

The server specifically suggested that the pizza wasn't 100% celiac safe. Had to risk it and didn't react afterwards. Pizza was good but small.

Give them 3 stars for trying to accommodate but BE CAREFUL if you have allergy or intolerance to gluten because there is some serious cross contamination. On all three occasions I tried the gf pizza I had bad reactions that night or the following morning. Lesson learned.

After notifying them they have since changed the online menu to say that you shouldn't eat here if you have gf allergy or celiac.

Very good, but VERY oily. The entire crust was laden with oil which made it sit heavily after eating, but it did taste good.

Warning! Do NOT eat here at the South Boston location if you have celiac! They do not take them seriously. Guy who took my order said “yes” to all of my questions about safety protocols, then likely didn’t follow any of them. My daughter was violently ill within 5 mins of eating the pizza. Avoid this location at all costs!
