Colonnade Pizza Carling

I feel compelled to give this review because if you eat gluten free you need to know. I really enjoyed my trip to Colonnade Pizza. The atmosphere is nice and the staff are friendly . They do have a gluten free option for their pizza and it was pretty good. Being celiac I am always worried going to new places but I felt safe and enjoyed my pizza. The problem was that they only sell medium and large gf pizzas. Fair enough, but the medium pizza I ordered was the exact same size as my wife’s small regular pizza. The exact. Except I paid over $30 and she paid around $16. I am used to gf foods costing more but this was a ridiculous amount. To add the waitress would not accept the fact that the pizzas were the same size. **Since this review I have received a message from the owner which told me that the pizza is actually one inch in diameter larger. So I stand corrected. The price was still double for that extra inch for the gluten free option.

Visited in July 2024, same great food and service!! 100% for every aspect of our visit. We were a group of 14 who had made a 6 pm July 6 reservation initially at Swiss Chalet in the Fairlawn plaza, but that restaurant was closed tonight due to a power issue with their ovens and hadn't notified us. There was nothing they could do, so Swiss Chalet gave us a dozen coupons for a return visit. Colonnade was the nearest restaurant and I had heard good things about it, so we gave it a try. When I asked Samira from Colonnade about hosting our group at the last minute, she said they were busy in the kitchen and perhaps it may be a bit longer wait for the food but we were most welcome. They set the tables together to seat all 14 of us, gave us water and we ordered appetizers. After we ordered pizzas to share and other great entrees. Samira made sure we had super service including a gluten free desert for our friend who was having his birthday. The food was delicious, prices were really reasonable. Thank you Samira and staff at Colonnade for saving our evening out and making it so very special. You're the best!! Note: We returned July 4, 2024 with our choir group of 16 and had another excellent meal, having made reservations. They gave us the section to the left of the entrance. Quick friendly service. Our meals were wholesome and delicious!
