Palermo Pizza & Pasta Capitol Hill

2 stars only because what we were given was tasty, but not what we ordered. We paid extra for a whole wheat crust and got a very obviously ordinary white crust. Additionally, they messed up which ingredients were over the whole of the pizza vs which were over half. Not sure if they have a problem with their order system or they just didn't read it. They offer specialty ingredients like dairy free and gluten free, but with such simple mistakes I'd be terrified to order from there if I had any allergies.

Honestly one of the better gluten free pizzas i’ve had (though admittedly the bar is low), but expect to pay $40 for a 12 inch / Medium… which is really a small. Also, I know gluten free crust is expensive.. but why must it always be a centimeter thick?? My rating is tragically low because of the crust, because while it is not bad, I only order pizza when I want calories. When I want to be full and still have seconds left over. That cannot happen when the crust is non-existent. For context, my hand is the size of half the pizza TDLR; Very grateful that Palermo is willing to cater to those with gluten and dairy allergies, but i’m begging for someone to stand up for the celiacs and give us a PIZZA, not a $40-$50 chip with sprinkles. 🥲
