For some reason you can enter through both doors only one is for the line. Pretty Much a subway kind of deal. Oven is cool but the pizza still taste like it came out of a microwave. I ate half of the first slice and threw it away. I ordered the meat lovers.

This is super thin crust pizza. If you like your pizza that way, you will like this. The best thing is the fact that you can order your pizza with whatever you want on it. Sauce, no sauce, etc. This is very useful if you have picky eaters in your family. It is also fast. From ordering to getting your pizza takes about 5-6 minutes. There is nothing fancy here, but it is particularly good if you have picky children or you are in a hurry.

Very disappointing, I only went to Blaze support my daughter's school fundraiser and def would not go again especially for the price I paid to eat a cracker with sauce and ?There ? is not all that ? and had way better ?!So the next time I feel like eating ? on a cracker, I can use that ? to buy a box of Ritz or Saltines, spread some sauce and ? instead of giving it to over priced BlazePlease save your 11+ dollars ? and go somewhere else that will give quality and filling ?

First time trying blaze pizza and I was blown away by the amazing service. Every single employee was extremely kind, detail-oriented, and clearly cared about the customer satisfaction. Pizza was great, and I was even offered free cheesy bread because they had made a mistake on a different order. Highly recommend this location.

Showed up at 8 and the place closes at 10. Was told they will not serve me because they are closing at 9 and are under staffed… again, it was 8. But I could’ve put in an online order and gotten food, they just would not serve me as a walk in. Tell me how that makes sense?

Not your granfathers pizza joint. It's like they fixed what you didn't realize what was missing. Choose a crust, choose your sauce, and your toppings as they make it. You get what you want with a smile. And the end of it all, you get what you want but then say, "Hey, I just paid 20 bucks for a personal pizza."

Waited in line for half hour then left after seeing one employee with her hands down her pants at the register and another employee wiping his forehead with his gloved hand while making pizzas. Garbage was overflowing. Very disgusting and disturbing for a restaurant!! Health department should take notice.

Pizza is very good with lots of varieties and options but it's not a great experience to stay and eat. The music is very loud and the restaurant is very poorly lit. The staff can be a bit rude depending on when you go and they always seem overwhelmed. Make it takeout and skip dining in the restaurant.Vegetarian options: Many options available, including vegan cheese and crusts.Dietary restrictions: They have vegan cheeses for dairy sensitivities and gluten free crusts.Parking: Ample parking. Limited handicap spaces.Wheelchair accessibility: There is a curb and a step to get to the doors directly from the parking lot. The ramped sections are further down from the doors. There is an outside door and then an immediate turn to the right at an awkward angle to open the inside doors. It is difficult to open that inside door to open the inside door. The section to wait on-line is narrow and three sharp turns to get to the counter. There are another set of doors that open onto the seating area, but if there is a line you would not be able to get to the beginning of it withoit going back out. The section with the toppings to choose is high and you would need to stand to see them. The same is for the registers and the curing area. Overall, unless you were someone, I think it would be a difficult experience to navigate the restaurant and order your food. I would suggest ordering online and then you can go directly to the pickup area and skip the lines and pizza building areas.

If you like variety, this is the pizza chain for you. It's set up like a "Subway" sandwich shop. You enter the line where you get to choose your crust. Their traditional crust is thin, but they also have a thicker "high rise crust", gluten free, keto friendly cauliflower crust. After that, the choices continue starting with the type and amount of sauce you want. I chose the white sauce. Then, you proceed to the cheese and toppings. I chose mozzarella and ricotta. You can pick how much you want. After that, it's time for toppings. I ordered a "two topped" pie, those toppings being chicken and bacon. Then it's off to the quick cooking wood fired ovens. Once your pizza is finished, they have free optional drizzles, I opted for the balsamic. They have add-ons like salads, meatballs, and desserts. We passed these up. Overall, the choices are great, and everyone gets their own pie made to order. However, the process can be slow when they are busy, and the wait can be comparable to ordering a pizza at a sit-down restaurant.Vegetarian options: They have a few vegetarian option.Dietary restrictions: They have gluten free crusts, I'm not sure how they would handle a pie for someone who has Cialiac disease because all pizzas are cooked in the same oven so not sure how they would prevent cross contamination.
