This restaurant is one of our favorite places to go with gluten-free options for pizza. If you are going to dine in, the restaurant is in an old airplane hangar, and you can watch airplanes land and take off. It is a popular place in Fairbanks because of the good food, people, and the view. They are good to call for takeout pizza too if you would rather do that. The Mozzarella balls are really good on pizza!
