Title: A Gluten-Free Haven with Room for Improvement
Rating: 3/5 stars
As someone with celiac disease, it's a rare treat to dine at a completely gluten-free restaurant like Papa Chops. I was thrilled to finally eat out with my family, especially on Mother's Day weekend. The food selection was great, and I ordered a variety of dishes, including fish and chips, burgers, and a pork sandwich.
The food itself was good, but the service fell short of expectations. When I went inside to ask for lemon and tartar sauce with my fish and chips, the cashier was surprisingly rude and snippy. She even checked my receipt to see if I had paid for the food, which made me feel uncomfortable, especially in front of my kids. There was also a miscommunication about ranch dressing, which added to the frustration.
Despite the good food, the service issues left a sour taste. With a bit more attention to customer service, Papa Chops could truly shine as a gluten-free destination. For now, I'd recommend it for the food, but with the caveat to be prepared for potential service inconsistencies.
Price: $80 (before tip)
Would I go back? Maybe. I'd like to give them another chance to show me better service.
Enjoy a fun and unique pizza experience with diverse flavors served in a cozy, family-friendly atmosphere set in a historic building.

🍕🥒🍺 Adventurous smorgasbord pizza concept that works pretty well. Everyone is happy. Chose several usual and unusual varieties of slices served on wood planks and there’s no arguments. Robust family friendly atmosphere with gluten free options. Cheese bread with shredded pickle is interesting. Set in an historic building in GR. 🍕🍺
With brick oven pizzas, unique entrees, and a relaxing vibe, this spot is perfect for casual hangouts or cozy date nights.

This pizza I must say is very good! I was very pleased with my experience. Place was clean, service was on point, and even the bread sticks were amazing. As far as pizza goes….. this is now my first choice above all the rest. In addition the gluten free pizza was great too which is hard to come by in Grand Rapids.
Known for its incredible pizza and unique pan-style crust, this spot impresses with rich sauce and a vibrant atmosphere that keeps everyone coming back.

Generally go here due to multiple individuals in my family that are gluten and dairy free. Every pizza I've had has the crust overdone, and the center is not done. The toppings are also limited and a disappointment. The last time I was here the crust actually damaged a tooth.
Enjoy a delightful meal with excellent flavor and accommodating service, perfect for those looking for careful preparation and attention to detail.

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.
A vibrant spot that offers a lively atmosphere perfect for gatherings, with delicious pizzas and fresh salads delivered on time.

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!
No frills place, so glad I was able to buy a gluten-free pizza with vegan cheese. It was good and they gave me no problems. They checked on an ingredient for me too. Have to wait outside for picking up only one person in at a time to checkout.
A casual spot with great vibes, known for delicious pizza and unique atmosphere, perfect for sports fans and cozy gatherings.

Good burger. Gluten-free pizza is AWESOME. Everyone loves their pizza.
It is odd that no one has reviewed their burger at this location yet, but here goes.
- Classic Burger - $13: Half pound patty, ordered medium and was served medium to medium well. It was medium quality meat. I liked the shredded lettuce. It was a tad on the sloppy side with the mayo and ketchup I ordered, but was tasty. The bun was a tad tough on the exterior, but plenty soft otherwise. Served in a wire basket on wax/paraffin paper, which is unique.
Overall, I have no complaints at all. The price was actually spot on compared to what is out there, the quality you get, and the size of the patty. Actually, if you factor in the fries, it is great value.
- Fries - (comes with the burger): Excellent battered fries. A tad thicker, served hot, and goes down easy. Cooked just right, soft inside, crispy outside, and delicious.
- 10” Gluten Free Cauliflower Crust Pizza - $17+toppings: Expensive, but the best I know. I couldn’t even tell it was gluten-free or cauliflower! It is my daughter’s favorite, so I decided to check it out with her. It is a thinner crust, but still soft. It is greasy. Everything about it is true to the Vitale’s mode of operation. Tons of toppings, full of flavor, and absolutely delicious!
With Pepperoni and bacon, it cost $19. For a 10” that fits on a dinner plate rather than a pizza pan, it is not much. My daughter will take leftovers home and have two meals to eat, though.
Vitale’s knows pizza. That’s for sure!!
- Service: Happy, pleasant, helpful, and punctual. We were taken care of very well. Nothing was left undone for more than a minute.
- Atmosphere: Casual and a bit of an American bar and grill feel. Sports is a huge emphasis, but they have a wing with a bit more classy feel to it that they open during higher volume times. It was generally clean and well kept. Our table was quote wobbly, though (very back corner on the northwest).
- Conclusion: I’d recommend their burger and HIGHLY recommend their pizza.
If you are gluten-free and want a special treat, this is THE place in Grand Rapids for sure!
Visited on a Tuesday at 5pm.
Tried their traditional hand tossed round crust and found my new favorite! Absolutely perfect crust. My wife is gluten free, and their gluten free pizza crust is her favorite now. Just as good as a regular crust!
Definitely appreciate the military discount this location offers for active duty and retired military members, too! Thank you!

Has Domino’s stepped up their game or is it just Plainfield? This place is prompt & friendly! The pizza is hot & delicious everytime. We especially love the crispy thin crust. AND the gluten free is by far the absolute best in town. Highly recommend you download the app and start earning free pizza when you order today!

The best gluten free thick crust pizza I have ever had . Better than fancy pizza places for gluten free. I also love that I can put low sauce .
Love their crispy crunchy 8 corner pizza. Good sauce and a good amount of cheese and pepperoni. They also have a gluten-free crust option which is nice for part of my family. Ordered online and pizza was ready within 2 minutes of my scheduled pick up time

We had Gino's delivered as a late night snack at our wedding and from the get-go Pete and his wife (sorry my mom spoke to you I can't remember your name!), were unbelievably sweet. We were super happy they had gluten free options for our guests with dietary restrictions! When we went in to pay for the pizza Gino wished us a lifetime of happiness and threw in t-shirts for my partner and I. We absolutely smashed the pizza, which was DELICIOUS, so I don't have any pictures. But I do have a picture of my partner in a Gino's shirt enjoying our honeymoon at the botanical gardens. Seriously amazing service. We'll be eating much more Gino's Pizza from now on! :)
The two well done gluten free pizzas I ordered were hot and ready at the time I asked for! It's the best gluten free pizza in the city frankly, just order it well done. Easy 5 stars, the staff is great!

Arcane and their food truck catered our wedding, and it was fantastic! Everyone loved having pizza (who doesn't??) instead of silly banquet food! It was served as a buffet and pizzas were always coming out of the truck to replace empty pans on the table. It didn't seem like anyone was waiting. They were also able to accommodate vegan and gluten free. Honestly, my only regret is that I didn't try all the pizza types, and that's on me! They have such unique pizza combinations and they just do it SO well. Also the truck itself makes the wedding space look even cooler with its big bulb sign and cool design. Pizza was my dream for the wedding and Arcane made it everything I hoped for!
Unique combos and quick service make it a go-to spot, plus a cool bar next door to keep the good vibes rolling.

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.
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
Enjoy a cozy vibe with local art, unique goods, and a spiced chai that packs a punch, perfect for a relaxing lunch spot.

Visited for the first time today, it was a great experience! The ladies at the counter were very friendly. I ordered a Masala chai, and she warned me that it is spicier than most chais, which I was all for, but I appreciated the warning. It was delicious! The kitchen for lunch didn't open for another 5 minutes, so I looked around at local artist's displays, and local goodies they had for sale. It was also nice to just sit in a comfortable chair and wait for my food to be brought out to me. I ordered the farmers wife sandwich on gluten free bread, which had great flavor. Generous on the goat cheese and avocado spread. All in all - excellent experience, can't wait to be back, and will probably spend more of my lunches here!
The food is always good, my favorite is the Margherita pizza, the cauliflower crust is great for gluten free. If you’re in the area make sure you stop by, you won’t regret it. Best neighborhood place!!!
Used to love your pizza when I could eat it! Now I’m gf and df and your staff told me your sauce didn’t have cheese in it. Was very upset when I had issues due to intolerance to dairy bc it DOES have cheese in it. Gluten free crust was ok. Most places will let you put their red pasta sauce on pizza… maybe you can look into that?
