Gluten-free pizza is amazing!!

We enjoyed our lunch today at Peppino's. I had the salmon dinner and my husband had the steak dinner. I am gluten and dairy free and had no issues with the way the food was prepared. The food was excellent. Bree was our waitress. She was very friendly, efficient and made sure our food was prepared correctly. I wanted to try the gluten free pizza but noticed that they didn't have any dairy free cheese available. I have found a plant based cheese that tastes like real cheese that I get through a company called Violife. Hopefully they will consider carrying it in the future. We will definitely be back! They accommodated us in every way. Thank you to all involved.

Food was wonderful and staff was very knowledgeable about gluten/cross contact.

A very cute Italian interior, great service, great prices, and they had gluten free options- I had a GF roll (although they only brought a roll out and didn't give me the oil and seasoning like my husband got for his bread. Luckily I'm not So sensitive that it mattered, but it might matter to other people. I'm sure he would have brought it if I asked) I had the wine sampler, so two similar 3 oz pours and then a 6 oz of the one I liked. Great option for someone looking to meet new wines. And I had the GF Penne Alfredo (made from corn) and added chicken. I added salt and pepper to mine but it was very good either way. We also had the creme brulee for dessert. They used some thick sugar (sugar in the raw maybe) and didn't melt it til it was smooth, which is odd for creme brulee, the top should be solid but this one was still individual sugar crystals almost melted, which means whoever was in charge of doing the brulee was impatient or maybe short on time. I think I'd rather have waited a bit longer for the dessert and had that done rather than have a sandy textured sugar on a dessert. I'd still recommend this place if you like Italian and need gluten free options especially. The menus were very cool too (lil tablets with a menu of options, and you can click on the names of food for details and a picture and a pairing recommendation) The price was also very reasonable.

Stumbled upon this place after my family and I landed on our way to Petoskey. I was so thankful that they had many gluten free options and made everything in house it was soooo good. And out service was absolutely amazing.

Absolutely lived up to the reputation! We had a pizza party at Berkshire Hathaway Home Service Michigan! 16 pizzas, two very large salads. Delicious, all cooked to perfection, salads fresh, and pizzas were hot! On time and great customer service. Even the gluten free pizza was delicious!

Shawn Patterson

One of the few places in town that caters to Celiacs like myself, with a very good gluten-free pizza.

Phillip Brown

Stopped in after a Lego event downtown. The only tables they had were Hightower, which were not my favorite. I enjoyed splitting a gluten-free pizza and a nice salad with my wife. Both were very good. The salad may have been even better. The kids only had a little food to take home. The best moment there was when there was a dad and a toddler waiting for the bathroom. After waiting, they discover there is no changing table in the men's. The speak to the servers and the servers post guard outside the women's for him. As a father and human, I really appreciated that. Enjoyed this place and would go again.

Food is always good, I'm enjoying the new gluten free items, that they are able to substitute for noodles in their delicious dishes! There is some cross contamination, I believe. But gluten free noodles are huge! Still no bread sticks sadly... But maybe one day!

We went here for our first wedding anniversary date and it was a gorgeous place with a great atmosphere! I have a gluten allergy and my server assured me it was safe. My entree arrived and I questioned the runner because I thought the gluten free noodle was penne, she went to the kitchen to check and told me this was the gluten free. About 3 bites in someone ran out to tell me it was wrong and took it back. I was extremely upset, the manager was kind and comped the bill but I was super sick after and it truly ruined the night. 2 weeks out now and my system is still recovering, it was a huge setback for my health. I would be very careful if you have food allergies here

Ordered 3 to go pizzas to be delivered on a snowy evening. Gluten free and 2 regular pizzas were all good. Actually came sooner than expected 😁

Jagger Hoffman

Such a good place! The waitress we had tonight was great. She was always on top of things (refilling drinks, asking how things were, etc.). My girlfriend and I shared some chili (pretty good for an Italian sports bar). I got the Uccellos special pizza (always so good) and she got the gluten free pasta in the pesto cream sauce (she said it was pretty good for being gluten free pasta. We recommend Bistro Bella Vita if you want the best gluten free pasta in GR). Overall, very good quality of food and service, with tons of screens for sports as well.

Sydney was very friendly and a great waitress. They offer Gluten Free options. Staff was great and the food was delicious!

Dave Tiesma

Very cool place. This used to be a brick oven pizza place, which was also good. Our server, Owen, was a delightful fellow. Yeah, I know, that's an odd way to put it, but you'll see if you have him as a server. The entire staff looks happy to be there, which is a good sign. There was a dude playing the accordion 🪗 while we were there. That was very fun. My wife asked him to play a song and he wasn't sure if he remembered to play it, but he nailed it. Oh? You also want to know how the food is? We really enjoyed it. I had the chicken parm, which was really good. The garlic knots were awesome. My wife had gluten free crust pizza. She said this was pretty good she was sad they didn't have gluten free pasta. Maybe they will add that. My son had the chicken piccatta and his wife also had a pizza. Fun environment, great music, really good food. We will be back!

Brenda Quintana

Got the gluten free goat cheese pizza with the staff recommendation of the calabrian honey. It is now my favorite combo. Staff was super nice and didn't have to wait long at all. Going to make this place a tradition everytime I come to the city.

Erik Huisman

Love Andreas, great pizza. Their normal crust is fantastic. One of the best. HOWEVER their gluten free crust is terrible to the point of being inedible

Sarah Martinez

I ordered gluten-free pizza and I even confirmed and they gave me normal Pizza! My friend is allergic to gluten.

This is a regular stop in GR for me when family is visiting. So many vegetarian options and some gluten-free options! Also went to a drag brunch here and that was aaaaah-mazing
