Gluten-Free at Marco's Pizza

Excellent pizza made with cauliflower crust!

We have been ordering Marco’s for years, but the last couple of times they have made both my daughter and I sick. I am sorry to say we won’t be ordering from them ever again.

If you call and tell them it’s a Gluten allergy when you order the cauliflower cruise pizza, they make sure to use a new spoodle ect. My daughter is gluten sensitive and has not had a reaction.

This location is now permanently closed.

I never used to have a problem eating here. Pizza was always delicious. All of Marcos switched their gluten free crust, I’ve ate it twice and had a terrible reaction each time. Sucks because they were my go to pizza spot. All for Marcos to save a buck(even worse that they’re Toledo business).

We have had issues in the past with quality and safety. Either the pizza has almost no toppings or only time it came with wheat flour on it and I called and asked why ? Since it was gluten free And the kid said he didn’t know it’s not a big deal just dust it off. The manager is never there and can’t be bothered to answer the phone.

They do offer delivery but that’s if they actually show up. Our last time ordering they pulled into our driveway we came out and they backed up and left .

It took 3 weeks to get a refund. Never again

I have not been there yet as recently found out I was gluten intolerant but was recommended by a GF friend.

I was not able to watch them prepare the pizza, but it goes in the same oven. The crust tasted like cardboard! It was literally the worst gluten free anything I have ever had. Not worth the money.

Changing my review after discovering They no longer offer the ‘Gluten Friendly’ medium crust - that was quite good. They switched to a personal-size cauliflower crust. All cauliflower-based crusts have a strong cauliflower taste and do NOT resemble an Italian pizza. Too bad.

Ordered the pizza bowl and experienced no issues. They also offer a gluten free cauliflower pizz. Staff seem educated on cross contamination prevention.

The new gluten free crust gave me a gluten reaction. I never once had a problem with the old crust and have eaten it for years. The new cauliflower crust tastes bad and gave me a reaction. I’m not celiacs, but have Hashimoto’s and my symptoms flared up after eating two slices of the new “gluten friendly” cauliflower crust. I won’t go back there unless they bring the old one back.

July 2022 Update: they changed the gf crust to a cauliflower crust, and it’s a step in the wrong direction taste-wise. It’s ok and safe pizza is still better than getting sick, I’m just sad that it’s not as good as it was with the old crust.

I have been getting gf pizza from this location for several years. They consistently deliver a great pizza and take the gf precautions seriously. I have consumed a LOT of bad to mediocre pizza since my diagnosis, so I am thrilled to find a place I can count on for delicious and yummy pizza.

One caveat, since Marco's is a chain/franchise, I would definitely go through the litany of questions (dedicated utensils, cooking mat, etc) at each location.

Enjoy this pizza, takes more like a regular pizza than most gluten free pizzas. I'm unsure of the risk for cross contamination. I have eaten this pizza for quite some time and have not had a reaction.

Update: 10-23-21: nope…not GF. Store claims “gluten friendly” but not on this most recent trip. My tummy feels “unfriendly.”

They offer a gluten-free crust. It’s not fabulous but passable. Not certain about the safety of each of the toppings. The ham and pineapple GF pizza is my go-to and so far, so good.

I have hashimoto's and gluten generally makes me sick to my stomach and have a thyroid attack (feels like I have a bad flu for a few days). I'm not celiac. Ordered my first gluten free pizza from here (you have to choose medium crust for gluten friendly to appear online). It was pretty good, a little greasy, but it's pizza so.... I always like options and I didn't get sick from it! Always a win!

I have not yet had a problem with the gluten free pizza here, but I'm not terribly sensitive. They have gluten-free screens for the gluten-free pizzas and cut them with a clean knife. The boxes come with a gluten-free sticker in them. That said, the pizzas go through the same oven as gluten containing food and, as in any oizza place that is not strictly gluten-free, there is flour in the air. I used to eat there before I was diagnosed with celiac, and I can say the gluten-free crust here tastes almost identical to their regular thin crust pizza. It does only come in the medium size, though. Also, avoid the crust toppers, as some have gluten and the person taking the order is not always aware of that.

Awesome GF pizza crust! They have a couple GF options: 1) a pizza bowl. Just get without romesan seasoning (it has bread crumbs). It’s very yummy. 2) they have an awesome GF pizza crust. For online ordering, select the Medium size and the GF option will appear. I almost couldn’t believe it was GF it was so good. Now one of my favorite pizza places. Note they do not have dedicated cooking, so cross contamination may occur.

I called to ask about the gluten free pizza at this location and was told that they only could provide me with “gluten friendly”. So, I asked what that meant for them and the man said that they clean the workspace, put on gloves, get out fresh ingredients and have a separate cooking section that are only for the gluten friendly options.

I called ahead to inquiry about the gf pizza and cross contamination. The manager explained that they change gloves, work in a separate area of the kitchen and walk it through the oven. 3 of us have gluten issues and I’m a sensitive celiac. None of us had any issues and we ordered 3 pizzas and wings. The pizza was amazing. They will be our new go-to pizza place!

The pizza is delicious but it's not safe for celiac. They use a different ladle but they use the same sauce that's already been contaminated.

Celiac friendly?

No
