Celiac safety assessment and key features

60%
Moderate

Metro Espresso Pizza brings the comforting aroma of pizza and espresso to downtown Orlando, and yes, they've got gluten-free pizza options right on the menu. But here's the thing—while the staff reportedly swap gloves and use separate plates for GF pies (which is a small sigh of relief), there's no dedicated prep area or written cross-contamination policy in sight. The kitchen’s awareness is a plus, but with all that flour flying around, celiacs need to tread carefully. If you’re just gluten-sensitive and don’t have celiac disease, you might appreciate the effort, but for those of us who’ve lived through the aftermath of a crumb, this spot is best approached with a dose of caution and a quick chat with your server.
