Blaze Pizza

Not celiac safe at all. Yes they have a GF crust, special mat and ask if you need a glove change but that’s it. The same boards, same utensils, same toppings, same line were all used and she didn’t actually change gloves. We never eat at pizza places that aren’t dedicated so not surprised, but stopped by because of the reviews here and the fact Edmonton doesn’t have a dedicated pizza place. Needless to say, didn’t get pizza.

Blaze is my absolute fave! They ask if you have an allergy and take precautions to change gloves as well. Plus the gf crust is amazing!!!

Blaze pizza is one of our favs! I had the bbq pizza and B had a pepperoni and bacon pizza. So grateful for the allergy protocols. They change gloves, have a special mat for the oven, get your sauce and cheese toppings from a safe place and cut it with a clean pizza cutter.

Staff are terrible with gluten free. I’ve had a reaction each and every time. THIS IS NOT BAD FOR BLAZE, JUST THIS LOCATION! SHERWOOD PARK LOCATION IS EXCELLENT FOR GLUTEN FREE!!!

Celiac friendly?

No

This location is not safe for Celiacs. They offer GF crust but will place it on a board loaded with flour dust, even when you mention it’s an allergy and request a glove change. They will make your pizza with fresh ingredients but it’s pointless because of using a non safe board. Other locations do a better job of avoiding cross contamination.

Celiac friendly?

No

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.
