Johnny's Pizza Review with Exclusive Coupon!

Disclaimer:
We received a gluten-free pizza to taste before writing this review. However, all opinions are my own.
M's gluten-intolerance is not the equivalent to someone with Celiac disease. 
Always do your own research when it comes to your health.


On our quest to find gluten free options for M, our family has reached out to our favorite restaurants. This week, we were invited to try a gluten free pizza at Johnny's Pizza in Kennesaw. Since M was at school, Peanut and I packed the camera and headed over to Johnny's New York Style Pizza in Kennesaw.



While our pizza was baking, Peanut drove a few laps in Johnny's arcade area.


Johnny's 10'' gluten-free crust with our favorite toppings!

After a 5 minute photo shoot with the pizza, I convinced Peanut to stop "driving" and participate in our taste test. There will be no pictures of me stuffing my face with pizza- but I can guarantee that I ate more than my fair share.

Peanut was so excited to be the taste tester!


    He was too busy eating to give me the "gluten-free thumbs up"... 
I will take that as a positive review.

The Johnny's gluten-free crust is a thin crust. It reminded me a lot of a flatbread. We enjoyed our mushroom, tomato and spinach pizza thoroughly. The manager and I agreed that GF crust does best with less toppings. Next time we go to Johnny's, we plan on trying a classic pepperoni.

Once we pushed ourselves past the point of full, Peanut went back to his driving game and I spent some quality time reading over Johnny's menu. During my GF menu scavenger hunt, I came up with other gluten free options other than their GF pizza. All of their salads are gluten-free with the exception of the croutons on the caesar salad.  *Be sure to check the ingredients in the salad dressings! They have another gluten-free dish called the Manhattan Garden that looks scrumptous!



The manager at our neighborhood Johnny's wanted to offer our readers an EXCLUSIVE COUPON! This is the first coupon they have offered on the gluten-free crust. Please pack up the family and head over to the Cherokee Street location-tell them that The Puzzled Palate sent you!





What are your family's favorite pizza toppings? 
Are you a deep dish, hand-tossed, thin or stuffed crust family?

  31. Yum! That pizza looks scrumptious. I don't have a gluten allergy, but I do enjoy gluten-free food for some reason. I don't think we have one of these restaurants near us, but I'll be on the lookout for one as we travel.

  34. I didn't know that Johnny's offered gluten-free options! My husband and I lived across the street from a Johnny's Pizza in Inman Park a few years back. It was decorated a lot different, offered adult trivia nights and fab drink specials, and definitely catered to the in-town crowd, but we LOVED it. I will definitely be on the lookout for another location closer to home!
