Wanted to give this place another try. Had a very lengthy discussion with the owner. He even showed me how they prepare the gluten-free pizzas and how the crust all come completely sealed and no one touches them until it's time to prepare them. He assured me that there would be no more cross-contamination And it would not be an issue again. And I must say the Owner was true to his word! The owner was shocked when I told him what happened and was so kind and so concerned and wanted to make sure that everything would be amazing again! Everything was amazing no reactions at all. Gave them a couple times before I posted this review. Everything has been amazing the last month. The food quality is excellent! All the toppings are fresh and amazing the pizza taste is the best gluten-free pizza I've ever had! So happy to have had this conversation with the owner to set the record straight. So happy to be returning to this amazing restaurant again! If you have any issues please speak to the owner he is Amazing and truly cares about his customers and you are not customers You Are Family!!!

Updated again (10/1/2023): I have been several times since the last [negative] review with no problems (I am extremely sensitive to XC).
The pizza is still as good as ever. I also frequently sit in the dining room and have never had a single issue ordering from the gluten free menu. The service is great and the food is even better. I highly recommend the Eggplant Stack for an app and the Pasta Salsiccie for an entree. Most of the regular menu can be modified to GF as well.
Updated (12/15/2021): I stand firm behind my 2018 review. I recently returned to Ralph’s for a GF pie, and after trying many other places over the last few years, Ralph’s clearly knows something that others do not. Hands down, the BEST gluten free pizza.
Also, they informed me that they have a popular GF cauliflower crust that is not on the menu. Can’t wait to try that next time.
(10/8/2018) Some of the best gf pizza in the Nutley/Montclair area. It has the closest thing to real crust that I've eaten since being diagnosed with Celiac about 14 months ago. Love it there. It is also nice to dine- in. Great chicken parm.

As a family with 3 Celiacs, we try to avoid Italian restaurants, assuming the cross contact will be unavoidable. However, we were so delighted to have taken a chance on Ralph’s Pizzeria. The food was amazing! I mean, their homemade (secret family recipe) tomato sauce is to die for! I haven’t had Italian food this good in so long. And we weren’t glutened. Ralph’s was so conveniently located close to the Garden State Parkway, Route 3, and the NJ Turnpike. It’s hard finding GF meals when we travel, let alone ones that don’t take us so far off the beaten path. My family and I can’t wait to come back to Ralph’s.

My favorite place for Italian food! They have an entire GF menu, they even have Gf dinner rolls. It’s so nice being able to order something other than just Gf pasta at a restaurant

The two chefs did not know what celiac was and questioned if I had a real allergy and were surprised to learn I did since they have customers who eat gluten free sandwiches but also gluten filled pizza slices. Needless to say I was worried before eating the food. I ordered a pizza and a grilled chicken wrap. Both failed Nima test.
No
Delicious gluten free chicken parm.
Yes

I used to love this place. Today I found a regular piece of pasta in the gluten free penne.
I’m basing my review off of the gf pizza. I ordered it margarita style and it was super bland. There was hardly any seasoning and nothing special. I didn’t get sick and they do offer a small variety of options.
Yes
good crust! taste even better cold in the morning. order your pizza here!
Yes
Ordered takeout - pizza was crispy and flavors were excellent. Eggplant stack appetizer was tasty but would probably be better eaten at restaurant. Chicken entree was also good. Didn’t eat the GF pasta that came with it bc I didn’t like the sauce. Will definitely return

Serverly celiac had Ralph's pasta and it was fabulous.

After reading the reviews I was so excited to try this place and was extremely disappointed. I ordered the Veal Capri with gf pasta and it was not good at all. The pasta apparently was boiled this morning and they try to reheat it when someone orders instead of boiling a fresh pot of water. I told the waitress and showed her the gross bits of pasta and she said okay I'll tell them and that's it. She didn't offer to make it right. I would not recommend this place to anyone.
Separate cooking area for gluten allergies. Just make sure to tell them and they will take care of you!
Yes
Pizza was great! One of the best gluten free pizza I've had. Ate with no sickness!
Yes
Absolutely amazing!!!!! I can't have gluten along with several other items and my meal is always perfect. I've tried everything on the GF menu and it's fantastic. My boyfriend even orders the GF so we can share and he can't tell the difference. I've lived everywhere in the US and this is by far one of the best GF Italian restaurants I've encountered!!!!
Yes
Amazing! I come here almost every Friday. Gluten free menu is great and will accommodate in any way they can. Owner actively walks around restaurant to check on patrons. My sister is gf as well and we have never had an issue here. One of the few Italian restaurants you can truly enjoy on a gf diet!
Yes
my go-to place for take out pasta. They even have GF croutons for your salad.
Best gluten free pizza and pasta!!!
Yes
Ralph's has the best gluten free pizza and pasta dishes! Plus, they will make almost anything they can gluten free if you ask them. It's the best!
it's okay in a pinch.
GF pizza is outstanding but more impressive is the quality of all their GF food including pasta.
LOVE their pizza they also have pasta but i havent had a chsnce to try it
