I have a gluten allergy. I did not get glutened at Virtuous Pie.
I have to give major props to Virtuous Pie. As someone with both a gluten and dairy allergy, I was prepared to never eat "real" 'za again. Then I heard about VP and I was so excited to try it. When I arrived at the resto however, my dreams turned pie-in-the-sky when I saw cooks spreading sauce and toppings over the regular crusts and then dipping back into the containers.
"OK - this is not gluten-free." I thought, "This is cross-contamination city." I was about to turn around and walk out when my friend suggested we ask the cooks about their preparation process for the g-free pies. The cook we spoke with was exceptionally knowledgeable about gluten-free food prep practices. VP really does everything they can (short of making the pizza in a dedicated kitchen) to avoid contamination. They pull NEW, uncontaminated sauce and toppings from the fridge, clean all prep surfaces, and have a dedicated side of the oven to bake the g-free ‘za. From ordering, to prep, to baking, to cutting, the staff clearly communicate with one another that this pie is for someone with a gluten allergy.
When the pizza arrived, I was still trepidatious as even a little gluten can wreck my week but I forged ahead and dug in. The food was delicious and I did not get glutened! Since then, I've ordered take-out through DoorDash. On my order, I indicated that I have celiac's and requested that new sauces and toppings were used. After I placed my order, I also called VP directly to ensure they understood my request. Once again, the pizza was great and I did not get glutened. It’s always a gamble dining out with food allergies but VP really does their best to ensure that cross-contamination does not occur.
Thanks Virtuous Pie for bringing vegan, gluten-free pizza to Vancouver!
As a vegan I loved this place, food was fantastic!! Probably the best vegan pizza I've had but coeliacs be warned they make no effort to prevent contamination of the gluten free food. They should really call it less gluten as nothing is actually gluten free.
Incredible pizzas, if you are reluctant to try the curry mile.... I was also and when I did try it......it blew me away, it was beyond tasty, it was such a perfect blend of everything.
It's hard to choose a favourite pizza here but the curry mile definitely makes me consider making it my favourite. All of them are so good, also the dipping sauces are such a treat, these pizzas make me feel pizza fulfilled. They also have ice cream for desert... what?!
My friend has a gluten, nut and soy allergy of which they catered to and made a custom pizza for her to enjoy and that she did!
Thanks virtuous pie for being so awesome!
