Sammy's Woodfired Pizza

Celiac friendly?

Yes

They have gf clearly labeled. Staff asked if was allergy and said they would change gloves and would make sure they would take precautions. Their gf pizza is very good!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Always great GF menu, so many options! I am Celiac. Staff is aware and friendly at all locations that I’ve been to. Their happy hour is even great.

Celiac friendly?

No

*this location specifically* (others have been fine) after clearly stating "I am gluten free...the bad kind...celiac...please let the kitchen know, bc I get very sick"... Waiter didn't note it on the ticket, didn't recognize my pizza crust was what, dropped pizza off, and disappeared. We had to flag down a manager to ask of the crust was really GF (nope). No understanding from waiter OR manager about what celiac or GF is. Manager suggested we order the flourless chocolate cake, which is NOT gluten free.

Worth the trip. Great GF pizza for a tourist from Texas. Thanks.

Celiac friendly?

Knowledgeable staff, lots of GF choices, and awesome pizza. Very nice, yet casual, decor. I highly recommend putting this on your list!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Really delicious gluten-free pizza crust. It's corn-free too (if you're like me and also allergic to corn). Staff was very knowledgeable and helpful. Great place.

They have a ton of gluten free options. I heard once that the owner's daughter is gluten intolerant so he changed the menu for her. (great little story and I hope it's true!) their food is wonderful, and all the servers I've ever had are lovely and pleasant. Highly recommend.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

They have very good gluten free pizza! I would definitely go back again.

The staff didn’t take me seriously, the waiter just flippantly said that they are good about gf options but didn’t really listen. I wasn’t thrilled with the service and ended up going with a very safe salad instead of anything else.

Celiac friendly?

No

Not sure what they did to my pizza, but man was I sick. I was so excited because it tasted great...but throwing up(that's what my body does when I injest gluten) twice in a hotel bathroom was not what I had in mind for my vacation. I usually do fine with eating out and can even handle shared fryers. If dining here, you may have to call first and verify how they handle their GF requests and then verify with the server again upon ordering.

Good gluten free menu. Crust made there, awesome crust. I would get the pizza just because the crust was so good. They have a good five-cheese pizza. It doesn’t have sauce. Many options for salads. Cool atmosphere and nice people.

I am giving this five stars based on the gluten-free food. Our service was about a three star. However the roasted cauliflower and the gluten-free Gorgonzola and pear pizza were amazing so as a gluten-free gal five stars it is.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

We got salads and gf pasta and had no issues. Food was tasty, service friendly and helpful.

Knowledgeable staff and kitchen. Menu clearly marked. I had salad and pizza.

Great pizza! Also have pasta but we didn't try it. Pizzas are wood fired and not sure about the over but our celiac had no issues.

My first two times were great. My third and final time was a disaster. I will never trust eating there again.

Not celiac but I do react to gluten. Nice pizza and safe, but pricey. If you’re using an iPhone, the directions are a block off. Enter the street address in the maps.

Pizza was good, crust was not as crisp as I like, but great taste. Though I am not celiac, I do react seriously and I had no reactions. I ordered the GF chocolate cake to go, and wished I hadn't. Two very little pieces of cake with some raspberry syrup and it was $10.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Nima tested the gluten free pasta as well as the grilled chicken. Both came out with no gluten! Yippee!

Celiac friendly?

No

My son and I got very sick from the “gluten free” pizza. It really set us back. It was also so expensive for a gf pizza! It wasn’t celiac safe when we had it.

Lots of gf options! Had the bbq chicken pizza w/gf crust, it was delicious!

GF pizza crust was very good. Restaurant was clean and service was good.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

GF pizza was great. Aware of risk of cross-contanimation.

Last time I ate here, they had taken the shrimp and grits off the menu. It was by far the best thing GF. I ordered a GF pizza and it was mediocre at best. They do have GF beer though.

Overpriced for the food given, waitress seemed to not know what we were talking about. not great :/

Maria was awesome, she knew which options were gluten free and the food was fantastic. Glad we went, good food and AMAZING service from Maria.

Food was fine. Staff were friendly but it was SLOW. They were out of the Brown Rice Bolognese so I settled for a salad.

LAX terminal 4 location has limited menu but they have brown rice pasta and it is the only pasta they serve so reduced cross-contamination issues. Pasta hit the spot and actually quite good for airport food.

Very good options for gluten free

Celiac friendly?

No

They think they understand Celiac, but don't. Their protocol for pizzas is all wrong. They use shared space, the same sauce and toppings as regular pizza. They swore by their technique so we tried it. Thankfully, Nima tested positive for gluten so it wasn't eaten. The chilli tested safe. The restaurant staff was not terribly understanding. We won't be back.

Items marked on the menu- salads and pasta. Staff seemed well informed. Yes

No

We stopped here for a late lunch on a trip to southern California. They certainly DO have gluten free options and I ordered a gluten free pepperoni pizza. I specifically asked for a gluten free crust and the server repeated back my order correctly. I'll also add that we were one of a small handful of tables on a Sunday afternoon, so being too busy should not have been an issue. When the server brought out the pizza, she again, specifically mentioned that it was gluten free. After having some of it, however, I realized that a gluten free crust is not this good :-) Needless to say, it was too late and I had enough of it that I knew I would be struggling to get over it for a few days. Ugh! These guys have gotten some pretty good reviews as far as being a decent place to get a gluten free meal. Not so in my case - either the server purposely misled me or was lacking in training in what gluten free meant. I looked at my receipt as I paid and noticed no charge for a gluten free crust, so I am sure the kitchen staff never knew what I needed. Proceed with caution on this one!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Couldn't have been more accommodating for my daughter with celiac. Pizza, pasta....excellent.

Loved this place until I found out their ranch wasn't gluten free, when the servers told me it was for months... I lost trust immediately

Celiac friendly?

Overpriced small gf pizza with bland flavor. Minimal toppings. $18.00 rip off

Celiac friendly?

No

I ordered 1 gf Hawaiian pizza( they only come in personal size). I was charged $18.00. I Obviously wanted top try this pizza as it seems gourmet for such a high price. When I recieved the pizza, it had 6 pieces of Canadian ham and 5 micro slivers of pineapples on top a lot of cheese. The taste was very bland. Nothing special. I took a picture of it to post, but I'm trying to figure out how to post it. Seem as though we get charged 3x's the amount for gluten free crust. What a rip off!!!

Celiac friendly?

No

Great food but not celiac friendly I got sick from this food the first time I ate it

Gluten & dairy free place. I love it here!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The waiter expressed that the kitchen was trained and celiac friendly. I ordered the goat cheese gf pizza; it was delicious and I did not get sick.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Delicious pizza and salads many gluten free options,out side fire seating available ,the food is perfect !👌🏻👌🏻👍🏻

Celiac friendly?

Had GF pizza and salad... They were very careful and it was delicious. No worries at this restaurant!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I liked my pizza and my friends liked their food very much. We enjoyed the patio area on a quiet Sunday evening. Waitress was nice and helpful in telling me which pizzas to avoid (Thai, for example). But nearly all can be done on a gluten free thin crispy crust... For an extra $4! Seems a little high, but it was tasty. I would've never known it was gluten free! I had goat cheese, sun dried tomatoes & pine nuts which was mild but very good. Not bland like some other pizzas. Seems there's only one size of pizza which is enough for two. I'll be enjoying my leftovers tomorrow! They brew their iced tea (no mix) but not the lemonade so I skipped that. I think they can handle celiac needs for the most part. I try to avoid peak times at any restaurant and that usually helps.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Chopped chicken salad (individual sized with extra chicken) + gluten free cheese pizza might be the best meal ever. Never been sick here, or at any location in the chain.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I really like Sammys and have been to three locations. All are consistent with service and good food. Wish they would use the gf pizza crust for hummus plate. I'm giving 5 stars bc safe. They did forget the pepperoni in the pizza, and steak was slightly overdone. But overall very good.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Last 2 visits seemed better than before. They are improving with gf pizza. Now they have Redbridge beer. It's nasty. (If you're a Celiac, you know.) Nice try, but I would rather them carry local Duckfoot beer.

I ate at the Sam Marcos Sammys and was fine. Ate here and got really sick from cross contamination. Sobe careful and stress to them the importance of separation!

Amazing pizza and 100% gluten free!

This place was great, I highly recommend it!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

You can order the hummus and replace the pita with the gf pizza crust. Love the options for pizza. Most servers are knowledgeable, definitely a plus.

There were a lot of GF choices clearly labeled. Pizza was good and service was great.

Had the gf pizza three different times. Twice no issues. Third time I got really sick. However they have amazing salads so I will be back

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Clearly labeled gluten free items and a staff who knows - and takes seriously - the precautions that need to be taken. The pizza was delicious! We will definitely come back the next time we are in town.
