"American" z pizza

Yummy in my tummy!  Z pizza’s gluten-free crust is pretty tasty, and the pizza topping “creations” rock!

Pizza is one of those things I thought we’d never eat out again, and, oh, how it depressed me.  Stuffing myself at Pizza Hut is a fond childhood memory, and it pained me to think I might not get to share that experience with my own children.  I get teary just thinking about it.  Sniff.

So, when I first learned that several restaurants are now offering gluten-free pizzas, I thought I’d jump out of my pants; I was so excited!  Too soon, my hopes were dashed, and our experience at Uno Chicago Grill taught me to lower my expectations for any future gluten-free pizza adventures.  Still, when Kim suggested z pizza, I was thrilled to find out we have several in our area and incredibly anxious to get to one and try it out!

I thoroughly enjoyed our gluten-free dinner at z pizza.  We ordered three creations: Napoli, Thai, and American.  They were all excellent.  The gluten-free crust is simple: light, thin, buttery, and crisp.  The toppings are fresh, flavorful, and plentiful.  I was surprised how much I loved the Napoli, topped only with cheese, tomatoes, and fresh basil.  I rarely cook with fresh herbs (you know, not really being the chef-type), but, WOW, fresh basil is sooo good!!  The Thai pizza was delicious, with spicy chicken and yummy peanut sauce; it had just the right amount of kick.  The American was, well, American…big chunks of sausage, fresh peppers…not quite as exciting as the other two, but still very good.  Z pizzas are light on crust, sauce, and cheese, but packed with flavor.  They are definitely gluten-freelicious.

So, z pizza gets two thumbs up.  I am, however, still on the lookout for a greasy deep dish or New York style gluten-free pizza, loaded with sauce and cheese.  Is it out there?  Is it even possible?

    I haven’t found a thick crust yet, but thank goodness there is something out there better than Chicago Uno…ick.

    just be careful..not all of their toppings are GF! only their italian sausage, pepp for meats (as far as I know the chicken and chicken sausage are not)! But other than that, yes, Z pizza is Zuperb!
