Blaze Pizza

Love the food here so much! Love that they have a gluten free crust as well as vegan cheese. Please do be aware of cross contamination though. They might be able to accommodate changing gloves and doing it in another area but not sure. I have not asked. After I eat here though every time I do have a bit of stomach issues, but i’m not sure if thats my gluten intolerance or my acid reflux from the tomatoes. So if you’re sensitive to cross contamination it’s possible you might have issues.

10/10 experience. Did not get sick. They used different utensils along with a GF dedicated sauce for allergies. When they put it in the oven it was on a pan so it did not touch where the other pizzas had been. Best GF experience by far and they were about to close!

Great variety of options for gluten free, but there is TONS of cross contamination. When I specified I wanted gluten free cauliflower crust, they asked me if I had an allergy, and I said yes. They then proceeded to scoop pizza sauce out of the same container they use for everyone and spread it across the pizza with the scoop, then put the scoop back in. 0/10 for safety, but it’s good quality pizza so I’m giving it 3 stars. In terms of what to order, the cauliflower GF crust is WAY better than the other GF crust offering! They also cater to other allergies than just celiac. Lots of vegan, dairy free, and keto options.

My favorite place to eat in Tuscaloosa! I’ve never gotten sick and they always use separate utensils when I tell them its for an allergy.

AMAZING!!! Told them I have an allergy to gluten and they were awesome! One person took care of my pizza and they changed gloves. Then they used clean spoons and a new container of sauce for my pizza. They also placed the pizza on a separate pan so it would not come in contact with the surface that the other pizzas had been on. Amazing pizza and did not get sick!!

The staff was very knowledgeable. Put sauce on pizza from a separate container. Placed pizza in grill on a pad to prevent cross contamination. Very good pizza! Keto and cauliflower crust are gluten free along with traditional gluten free crust option.

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.

Don’t trust this place!!!! SO MUCH CROSS CONTAMINATION it’s a nightmare. And if you tell them it’s an allergy: prepare for a staff temper tantrum. Unreal. I threw my pizza away rather than risk getting sick.

Pizza was great however, cross contamination has me nervous. I saw the employee handling regular dough hand the gal that was going to make my GF pizza the black liner. I called it out and asked to please have a glove change with a new liner. They did it with no questions asked. Gal got sauce from a different area. All seemed great. Then the employee that got my pizza out of the oven placed my pizza down. When he moved it the black liner wasn't completely covering the table where part of my pizza was placed. Unfortunately, I will be the next test subject of possible cross contamination at Blaze Pizza.

Pizza was good until I got severely ill. May not be cross contaminated while making, however once it’s in the oven it’s fair game as it’s touching everywhere normal pizza is fired.
