Waitress said they prepare the GF pizzas in a separate area. Crust wasn’t great, but it felt like a celiac safe experience, and my celiac daughter didn’t have any issues after eating. They also offer a prepackaged GF brownie for dessert. The waitress asked her if she wanted it heated. She said yes, but then the waitress came back and said that the kitchen staff said they couldn’t guarantee it would be gluten free if they opened it, so they would not heat it. I appreciated their caution.

They have good gf pizza. It hasn’t been consistent every time but that is the problem with gf pizza in general. Still give it 5 stars!

Very knowledgeable staff and great experience at all locations I’ve been to. Friendly staff. Delicious pizza! Love the kosmic karma pizza. I have had it many times without any reaction, and I am extremely sensitive to gluten cross-contamination.

I’ve eaten here a few times (dine in) and been fine, but ordered take out once and found a large piece of regular dough on my takeout box, so beware of errors like that.

Got their mushroom truffle pizza GF. They take extra precaution to cook GF pizza. It was delicious. We also had the spinach dip app by substituting the bread for veggies. Overall great options and felt fine after eating.

The server was very careful with listening to my food allergies. He confirmed food is cooked in a separate oven and that they take precautions to avoid cross-contamination. The pizza was very good! Felt great afterwards as well 🙂

Their pizza is certified GF and they use a separate oven. The pizza is always delicious and I eat here every month. I always have the mushroom pizza.

The waitress said they prepare the pizza separately but it's cooked in the same oven. She then proceeds to bring out my gf pizza sitting between my family's regular pizza. Not only that, it took nearly 1 hour (54 minutes to be exact) to get this food out on a Tuesday afternoon. There was maybe 6 tables total in the restaurant.

I didn't eat. Can't trust a pizza she piled regular pizza on top of
