I like this restaurant, it provides gluten free pizza, which is very important to my family members, they are allergic to gluten. and it is not easy to find the true gluten free food such as Blaze Pizza

Admin please remove this listing. BLAZE has officially ended any and all GF serving Nationwide. They have discontinued their GF crust, and their stores will offer customers "gluten friendly" cauliflower crusts, which their corporate office has confirmed is NOT gluten free in any way shape or form, it just "has less gluten" (see their Twitter) additionally they also have discontinued allowing customers to request a glove change for other allergen cross contamination. Blaze is over.

This place is great. They will change gloves and clean equipment if you are allergy sensitive. Always a great experience!

With the mixed reviews, I asked a ton of questions before ordering and watched very carefully. They asked me if it was preference or allergy. All toppings were from a new container and the employee changed gloves after touching each container. The gluten-free pizzas go on their own mat and in a specific part of the oven. They have a specific gluten free pizza cutter and utensils as well. I was very happy with the gluten-free crust as well! As a new celiac, I could barely tell the difference.

I went in and asked if they could make the gluten free pizzas allergy safe and avoid cross contamination. they said yes of course and changed their gloves but then used all the toppings from the same place they get it for all of their pizzas and you could visibly see flour and crumbs on the toppings and saw them using the tongs touching gluten pizzas. i’ve eaten there before after doing online pickup and didn’t feel any notable pain but I definitely regret doing that knowing what I do now.

They always do glove changes for my two celiac kids. One has a dairy allergy too and they have never gotten sick!

Typically staff will comply with a glove change and use separate utensils and ingredients from below, but I've had a couple of instances where I've communicated my intolerance and staff have looked me in the face and asked "Is it ok if I don't actually accommodate" or "do you actually need this"? Needless to say, I got sick. More recently even when they followed protocol I still got glutenated.

Good experience here - person who took order made the person who made my GF crust pizza change gloves, and they used a special mat under the pizza in the oven. But of course he had the usual “we cannot guarantee …” disclaimer. No GF dessert options though.
