I ALWAYS feel safe eating gluten-free here! They take excellent care in ensuring my pizza is prepared safely. Personally I prefer a crispier crust so I ask that they run my pizza through twice. I’m always satisfied after learning to make this request!

Waitress just seemed like she didn't care. Wife ordered a burger with a gluten-free bun and said she had an allergy. Waitress barely acknowledged her. Wife ended up getting sick after two bites. Definitely not a good experience

My husband picked up 2 pizzas tonight. One was a gluten free crust which is supposed to be 11” and they charge an extra $3. My gluten free pizza was 7” and that is a stretch and it was $13. My husband’s pizza was 12” and $10. We have ordered several times from here and my gluten free pizza has always been 11”. So buyer beware you are now paying for an 11” gluten free pizza crust but getting maybe 7”. What is happening to this world! It is hard being gluten free - give us a break!

First time here, sorry to say we won’t be back. I ordered gluten free pasta Italiana and got a bowl of (hopefully) gluten free pasta with some marinara sauce. The marinara was very flavorful but was missing all of the vegetables that were in the pasta italiana. My husband ordered the putananesca pizza. His pizza came out 20 minutes before my pasta. Fortunately I got a side salad with my meal that tied me over till the pasta arrived. The pasta came out with a side of very gluten full bread. I guess the waitress missed the point of the gluten free pasta. The pasta was not Al dente, very soft and over cooked. My husband ordered a tiaramisu while we waited on my pasta. The dessert was completely frozen. The waitress was new and clearly didn’t have any training or prior experience. However the kitchen was to blame for some of the sort comings of the food that was served.

Where do you go when you are gluten intolerant, but your family isn't? Here! Ferrara's 16" pepperoni, olive, and banana pepper pizza looked and smelled AMAZING, and it was the perfect lunch size for my three hungry guys. And my Caesar salad (minus croutons!) and gluten free fettuccine Alfredo (I got broccoli added for a $3 upcharge! Yum!) was PERFECTION. Creamy without that overly salty in a jar stuff! We had never been there before, but I felt like our server knew us for years. This is going to be our go-to spot when on visiting family!

I could eat there every day of the week. Their apple Jack sauce is one of my favorites. I do miss the fries they had 10 years ago. I think they told me they switched because they were not gluten free she were trying to have more options for people with gluten allergies

The food here is amazing for both vegans and meat-eaters alike. I love the choices of vegan and gluten-free items, and the spices are perfect!! I highly recommend the rani tikki, and my husband loves the chicken tikka masala. We’ve dined here about five times since they’ve opened. We think it’s awesome!!

Moved down from PA about 8 years ago and this is by far the best NY style pizza I’ve had since moving down here. This will be our new go to spot! My wife has to eat gluten free, and said the gluten free pizza is the best she’s ever had as well. Wings were really good too!

It was one of those nights when we needed ice cream. So we chose to go to Smitty’s cause of the gluten free cones & ice cream. They were out of the cones. But we did roll in right before they were bout to close. Which was understandable. The ice cream was delicious & the girls working that night were very helpful & friendly. You have to go. They built-in stools out front were cute too.

I didn’t get to go in person but ordered via DoorDash and it was so yummy! I’m gluten free and they had a ton of options. I ordered Thai tea and to my surprise they sent me a little free side of coffee flavored jellies to try that were DELICIOUS! They also drew a cute little bee on my container.

Stopped in for a cup of coffee while charging the Tesla at the Super Charger in the parking lot. I was amazed at how excellent the coffee was. If you like coffee that isn’t super dark tasting, nicely roasted, and brewed to perfection, this is your place. They make their own syrups if you get a latte and the black coffee was perfect. We also had a gluten free brownie that was excellent. Highly recommended and I will definitely come back when in the area and looking for coffee!

Took a few minutes minutes to be seat. Okay no issue. After being seated we were greeted promptly and drinks ordered. After a fresh pot of coffee was brewed we were served our drinks and order placed. Our food did take a while to come but when it arrived it was hot and exactly what we wanted. Unfortunately the gluten friendly pancakes were off. Just something wrong and we have had them before which are normally good. Our server was very good to us and it seemed like the others were too. They do seem to have a staffing issue unfortunately but if you can be flexible it's worth it for IHOP.

I received outstanding care here! Because I needed to eat gluten-free, I spoke with the manager. I understand their typical efforts to eat gluten-free safely include fresh utensils and foil placed on their grill. On my visit I understand the cook was also Celiac and knew my needs. I understand they opened a freshly cleaned grill to prepare my meal. I’m sure this was not typical.
