What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Gluten-Free Crust Pizza (10" crust) for dine-in, carry-out, or delivery, topped with gluten-free sauces and toppings.
- Gluten-Sensitive Create Your Own: gluten-sensitive crust with two sauce choices and 20+ toppings.
- Gluten-Sensitive Specialty Pizzas: around 20 gluten-sensitive options (e.g., Roundup, Stampede, Prairie, etc.).
- These items are explicitly described as gluten-sensitive/safe in the collected information. The gluten-free crust is not offered as part of the buffet.
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The buffet environment carries inherent cross-contamination risk, especially around salad bars and hot buffet items.
- There is variability in in-restaurant communication about safety practices, leading to some diners feeling uncertain at times.
- Even with precautions like fresh gloves, separate pans, and dedicated utensils, some risk remains since pizzas may be baked in the same oven as gluten-containing pizzas.
- The explicit gluten-free options are designed to minimize cross-contact, but the location is not a dedicated gluten-free facility, so residual risk cannot be eliminated.
