I had the best pizza/salad/entree of my life last week, but it’s not available anymore! How can I have it again?
Our special pizzas come and go like the seasons but they will be back. Also, our talented chefs love working for us because they get to be creative and source in-season goods. Please like our Facebook or Instagram page for new specials!
I’m a vegetarian, gluten-free, or have other dietary needs. Can I eat at Solstice?
Yes! We take great pride in offering many options for folks with special diets and food sensitivities. Let us know while ordering, and we’ll let you know what we can do. Please note however that we cannot guarantee against cross-contamination, especially in regard to gluten-free. Since pizza is our primary offering, flour is everywhere in our kitchen. We offer “gluten-friendly” pizza: while the dough is technically gluten free, we cannot guarantee against cross-contamination in a shared kitchen space.
Do you have vegan options?
Yes, both our regular and gluten-friendly crusts are vegan. We also have Follow your Heart cheese that can be substitute to any order.
