I had remembered reading on message boards that they had a gf menu...(remember this was before the gf pizza announcement)and sure enough they did! So, that was nice.However, the hostess had known about it, but the bartender didn't. (We sat at the bar.)The menus were grimy, and I saw the bartender take a glass and use it to scoop ice. If you've ever worked in a restaurant...that's a big no-no because if the glass breaks/chips...anyhow...he had already broken a glass before that. (Not in the ice.) Anyhow...sooo...the gf menu was boring. i.e. I could get a burger, but w/out fries. My options were steamed veggies. I'm sorry, but that is boring. I at least want a baked potato with my burger. So,after my unimpressive visit there I decided not to write about the gf pizzas they were serving. <BR/>I wish them the best and hope they figure the gf thing out.CeliacChickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09411406918251973483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32458049.post-56850072304367255402008-11-25T09:47:00.000-05:002008-11-25T09:47:00.000-05:00We ordered from the Dedham location (which is in f...We ordered from the Dedham location (which is in fact offering the GF menu as well). I was told, however, that I could get any toppings. Maybe this is another issue besides the "human error" that led me to receive a regular crust. I think it's wonderful that they are offering this-- I'm just saying maybe they need some more time to work out the kinks in the system. I don't want anyone else to suffer like I did.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03259420708298662273noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32458049.post-45018500170364132722008-11-24T19:19:00.000-05:002008-11-24T19:19:00.000-05:00Maybe the experience varies by location -- we visi...Maybe the experience varies by location -- we visited the one in Newton Corner, Massachusetts, and had a good experience. I spoke with the manager of the location before we went there, and he explained that they set aside ingredients such as cheese, sauce, pepperoni to minimize the risk of cc (that is why you can't get other toppings on the pizza as of now). You still need to be careful, of course, but we would definitely return.Rochellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14528210718437031925noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32458049.post-27029460289070756692008-11-24T09:19:00.000-05:002008-11-24T09:19:00.000-05:00thanks for sharing michelle.thanks for sharing michelle.Allergic Girl®https://www.blogger.com/profile/14903866598372396735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32458049.post-30087355277645031052008-11-24T09:18:00.000-05:002008-11-24T09:18:00.000-05:00I was visiting my family a couple of weekends ago ...I was visiting my family a couple of weekends ago in the Boston area, and regret to report that they screwed up my order and gave me a regular pizza. Needless to say, I was violently ill. They did feel terrible and assured me up and down that this was a freak occurrence and that they have reviewed their protocol over and over, etc. I'm sure many other people have had great experiences, but I can only report on my own.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03259420708298662273noreply@blogger.com
