Ate dinner here last night - excellent GF menu. Love that it is a separate menu and not just "ask our server about GF options" that we see at other places. The GF pizza crust was very thin and crispy. We prefer this style to the thicker GF crusts out there. We ordered the Sweet lil' Razorback which is pepperoni, sausage, bacon, basil, garlic and cheese. It was great. Was cooked in a separate disposable pan to prevent cross contam. Service was very good. They poured big glasses of wine which was great after a day of cross country driving with 3 small kids in a suburban. We have to plot out all our travel meals during these drives and we made a special trip to this location bc of what they offered - we were not disappointed and my 9 yr old who has celiac was in pizza heaven. Btw, this is a corner store of a strip mall so its not glamorous but has outdoor & indoor seating and works out just fine since they delivered on the GF food experience.

LOVE the Lean Machine with the Gluten Free crust. Usually ask them to run it thru an extra time to get crust xtra crispy & the GF pasta w/marina is good as well. I'm very a picky eater, so was very pleased to find this GF menu.

Can’t say enough about this place! Possibly the best GF pizza i’ve ever had. Our server was very knowledgeable about gluten allergies and walked us through the entire prep process. They have a separate area for GF and bake their pizzas in their own pans. They also use separate toppings to avoid cross-contamination. Items on the menu are marked if they can’t be made GF, and most of the menu could. We got the baked potato pizza (can’t remember the actual name) and the meat lover’s - both were phenomenal. Our waiter even brought them out separately from my husband’s (gluten) calzone. I felt so comfortable eating here and would definitely go again!!

This is one of my “go to” places on the north side of Indy. They take precautions seriously and I’ve never gotten sick!

Eaten here for years, never had a reaction to any of the GF options. A go to weekly destination for our very sensitive Celiac family.

Their menu actually marks the items that can NOT be made GF. Most of the menu can be made GF, which was really nice. Had the GF pizza and the grilled ham and cheese sandwich which were both good
