Hey everyone!

I am 20 yrs old and was diagnosed with celiac disease last year. I am new to this site and it seems very confusing but i finally found out how to post and would like to share my experience with a gluten free pizzaria i went to yesterday!

The resturant is called majora trattoria in glen rock, NJ

The pizza was good. It was thin crust and and they have prettymuch any topping you want! I think many celiacs would agree that getting gluten free pizza at a resturant is amazing and an exciting experience! I also had the raviolis (shared with my mother and sister) and they were absolutly amazing! Tasted completley normal. I wouls definitely recommend this resturant and please let me know if anyone knows of more pizzarias that offer gluten-free pizza in or around the surrounding area!

Hi there!

My daughter, who is 11 years old and was diagnosed with celiac when she was seven years old.

First, I wanted to ask you if you know what they do about separating the pizza from the non-gluten pizza. Do they have a separate oven?

We had a bad experience with cross contamination at an Italian restaurant in Tarrytown advertising gluten free pasta. They had the gluten free pasta, but cooked it in the regular pasta water and she had a major reaction.

Next, we do know of two places that make gluten free pizza in the area. One is in NYC on Bleeker Street called Risottoria. We have eaten there many times and it is great. Fabulous pizza (thin crust, just like in Italy) and risotto with no reactions. They even have breadsticks, gluten free beer, chocolate chip cookies, Fudgies (their own invention of choco chip cookies wi. fudge filling) that are all gluten free.)

They also have regular pizza.

The second place is one we haven't tried yet and were just told about. It is in Livingston, NJ. Calabria Pizzeria & Restaurant at 588 South Livingston Avenue between Northfield & Hobart Gap Rd. Phone 9973) 992-8496. They say they also serve Pasta. It's on the way to the Short Hills Mall!

Please let me know if you have further info regarding Majora Trattoria's pizza. When I googled them there were some comments saying what a small brick oven they had and how busy they are. It just made me a little nervous about how careful they are about the CC.

hi!

What they do to separate the pizza from the oven is place it on a "pedastal"

type device sao it does not come in contact with the oven itself. However, as i am sure you know, there is always a risk of cross contamination when eating out but i believe this particular resturant partnered up with the Celiac Disease Awareness group which ensures there is no cross contamination if they can help it. The ravioli is outstanding! I have actually heard of the one in NYC and have not been there yet but i never knew about the one in livingston! My sister works in that town actually and i am so excited to try more!

At Majora Trattoria i know they serve other pasta such as rotini and linguini when we went on sunday. The crust of the pizza is actually not made there, it comes out of a package from a company. I forget the company but that might also help your daughter considering there is no spreading out of the dough or anything such as that.

Thank you so much for the information! I don't know if you also know of a place called Janice A. Bistro in HoHoKus off of Rt. 17 but they serve gluten free pasta as well and bread before the meal. Also there is a small chain called Maggianos (there is one on rt. 4 near/in the riverside square mall) which is very delicious and extremely accomodating! I hope this all helps!

i went to mangia trattoria for the first time tonight and it was AWESOME! first off it was so cool to just go into a local place (my mom lives less than 20 mins away) and grab some pizza. it came in real pizza boxes which was fun, i felt normal! the best part about the pizza is that isn't super small. it's not quite normal size but it's one of the largest sized gluten-free pizza's i've had. they were super nice and i got one pizza with pepperoni and the other veggies. very excellent! they also do pasta dishes (but i just got pizza).

Guest Jemenii36

that is great to hear! The pizza is good but half the fun of going is just getting something you cannot normally get when eating out...I am glad you enjoyed it! It is nice to have something around the north nj area, as there are not tons off option but definitely enough to keep me satisfied :)

There crusts are from a company called stillridingpizza.com. Check there website. They supply special equipment and instructions regarding CC. But ultimately, it's up to the restaurant to follow the instructions. I went to a pizzeria in Manhasset on Saturday that uses these crusts. It was pretty good and the leftovers reheated well in the toaste oven in my office. Call the restaurant to assure yourself that they follow the instructions.

Hi,

I just read about a place called Pizza Fusion that will be opening in Ridgewood, NJ. They have a website you can check out.

Just went to Joe's Pizza in Summit, NJ and had pizza. It was very good.

Little expensive at $19 for what I would call a medium pizza. It was not an individual but also not as large as a regular pizza. It was 6 slices which I could have eaten all in one sitting. I didn't - save some for dinner.

I was a little leary as I didn't know if they had great CC defenses but I didn't feel any issues after eating it.

In NYC, I really, really recommend Pala in the lower east side (I believe it is on Allen St, off Houston st)

Open Original Shared Link

Fantastic pizza, gluten free calamari and deserts. Pizza is based on chickpeas and actually better than most wheat based pizzas.

FYI: there is also a great gluten free bakery somewhat in the area. Tulu's. I believe it is on 11th st bet. 1st and 2nd ave.

I am not a paid spokesperson :)

      Hi and thank you very much for your detailed response! I am so glad that the protocol worked so well for you and helped you to get your health back on track. I've heard of it helping other people too. One question I have is how did you maintain your weight on this diet? I really rely on nuts and rice to keep me at a steady weight because I tend to lose weight quickly and am having a hard time envisioning how to make it work, especially when not being able to eat things like nuts and avocados. In case you have any input, woud be great to hear it! Friendly greetings.

      I was not taking any medications previous to this. I was a healthy 49 yo with some mild stomach discomfort. I noticed the onset of tinnitus earlier this year and I had Covid at the end of June. My first ‘flare-up’ with these symptoms was in August and I was eating gluten like normal. I had another flare-up in September and then got an upper endo at the end of September that showed possible celiac. My blood test came a week later. While I didn’t stop eating gluten before I had the blood test, I had cut back on food and gluten both. I had a flare-up with this symptoms after one week of gluten free but wasn’t being crazy careful. Then I had another flare-up this week. I think it might have been caused by Trader Joe’s baked tofu which I didn’t realize had wheat. But I don’t know if these flare-ups are caused by gluten or if there’s something else going on. I am food journaling and tracking all symptoms. I have lost 7 pounds in the last 10 days.

      Welcome to the forum, @Hmart! There are other medical conditions besides celiac disease that can cause villous atrophy as well as some medications and for some people, the dairy protein casein. So, your question is a valid one. Especially in view of the fact that your antibody testing was negative, though there are also some seronegative celiacs. So, do you get reactions every time you consume gluten? If you were to purposely consume a slice of bread would you be certain to develop the symptoms you describe?

      I only went on the multi vitamin AFTER a couple of year of high dose, targeted supplementation resolved most of my deficiencies.  I was on quite a cocktail of vitamins that was changed every 6 months as my deficiencies resolved.  Those that were determined to be genetic are still addressed with specific doses of those vitamins, minerals and amino acids. I have an update on my husband and his A Fib.  He ended up in the hospital in August 2025 when his A Fib would not convert.  He took the maximum dose of Flecainide allowed within a 24 hour period.  It was a nightmare experience!  They took him into the ER immediately.  They put in a line, drew blood, did an EKG and chest Xray all within minutes.  Never saw another human for 6 hours.  Never got any results, but obviously we could see he was still in A fib by watching the monitor.  They have the family sign up for text alerts at the ER desk.  So glad I did.  That is the only way we found out that he was being admitted.  About an hour after that text someone came to take him to his room on an observation floor.  We were there two hours before we saw another human being and believe it or not that was by zoom on the TV in the room.  It was admissions wanting to know his vaccine status and confirming his insurance, which we provided at the ER desk.  They said someone would be in and finally a nurse arrived.  He was told a hospitalist was in charge of his case.  Finally the NP for the hospitalist showed up and my husband literally blew his stack.  He got so angry and yelled at this poor woman, but it was exactly what he needed to convert himself to sinus rhythm while she was there.  They got an EKG machine and confirmed it.  She told him that they wanted to keep him overnight and would do an echo in the morning and they were concerned about a wound on his leg and wanted to do a doppler to make sure he did not have a DVT.  He agreed.  The echo showed everything fine, just as it was at his annual check up in June and there was no DVT.  A cardiologist finally showed up to discharge him and after reviewing his history said the A Fib was due to the Amoxicillan prescribed for his leg wound.  It both triggers A Fib and prevents the Flecainide from working.  His conversion coincided with the last dose of antibiotic getting out of his system.  So, make sure your PCP understands what antibiotics you can or cannot take if susceptible to A Fib.  This cardiologist (not his regular) wanted him on Metoprolol 25 mg and Pradaxa.  My husband told him that his cardiologist axed the idea of a beta blocker because his heart rate is already low.  Sure enough, it dropped to 42 on the Metoprolol and my husband felt horrible.  The pradaxa gave him a full body rash!  He went back to his cardiologist for follow up and his BP was fine and heart rate in the mid 50's.  He also axed the Pradaxa since my husband has low platelets, bruises easily and gets bloody noses just from Fish Oil  He suggested he take Black Cumin Seed Oil for inflammation.  He discovered that by taking the Black Seed oil, he can eat carbs and not go into A Fib, since it does such a good job of reducing inflammation.   Oh and I forgot to say the hospital bill was over $26,000.  Houston Methodist!
