Omg! I apologize! I can never get a picture of my food. It's always fresh, made to order and ready when in decent time. The toppings taste fresh. The dough tastes unfrozen. The cheese is ! The restaurant is clean. The staff is amazingly friendly. I say amazingly because not all customers are nice but they hold their composure well. Great team! The oven guys are super nice, when not busy they come out and check on the dine in staff. My fav is the Green Goddess salad and cheesy bread with their blood orange lemonade and a brownie. Great value. Great food. Highly recommend. read more

Quick with service, fresh dough and ingredients! They have various combos but I always go for built my own which comes around $15! Plenty of seating as well so decent ambiance. read more

Blaze Pizza - Build Your Own Pizza (Large) - Pizza Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

If blaze pizza doesn't have any fans I'm dead. "Why would you go to blaze if you live in Chicago where there's so many other great places?" Yeah there are great places if you want to wait 30+ minutes or have a soggy underdone crust or pay $30 for a medium pizza plus an extra $3 for each additional topping (most often all of the above). Blaze Pros: - ready in under 10 minutes - $12.99 for 11 inch pizza with UNLIMITED toppings - friendly staff who cook my pizza to perfection - to go boxes are half the size of a normal box so you don't have to take home a giant box for 2 slices of pizza (blaze pizza is a friend to the environment) - the crust is a true thin crust - so many amazing deals through their app (big fan of loyalty rewards) Blaze Cons: - literally none I u blaze Blaze has scrumptious pizza, is conveniently located between west loop and the loop, is always very clean, and has plenty of seating if you want to enjoy your food at the restaurant. The employees are always so nice and helpful. My personal recommendations: - light cheese - extra well done makes it perfectly crispy (like almost burnt) - the roasted garlic - if you can, eat the pizza there while it's hot - if you're feeling a drink mix half & half sparkling water with their blood orange lemonade (half the sugar/calories but definitely still sweet enough) - if you have an air fryer you should air fry your leftovers until the cheese is bubbling it's read more

Blaze Pizza - Build Your Own Pizza (11-inch) - Pizza Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

I can't speak to the service or ambiance because I ordered delivery on GrubHub. I will say that when you order pizzas for delivery, you can usually expect an hour long wait. I decided to pick this because it gave me a 20 min delivery time estimate. I was skeptical of it that meant it wouldn't be that good, but I was starving so I went with it. FOOD: - The s'more pie was ok. I like s'mores for melted marshmallows and this wasn't melted which isn't my thing. - The pizza was incredible. I was extremely impressed. The dough was so soft and it was very thin. It was very high quality for fire-cooked pizza that was made quickly - The cinnamon bread was INCREDIBLE. If you liked the cinnamon sticks that Pizza Hut used to have, these are a million times better. I ate the whole thing. Fun fact: While researching Blaze Pizza afterwards, I found out LeBron James is an investor in Blaze Pizza. read more

My toddler boys love the meatballs here and that alone is reason for 5 stars. On a serious note, for a fast casual chain, Blaze hits on all cylinders - user friendly app, reward program, fast food and friendly staff. I've only had their cheese pizza and meatballs so granted can't speak to the whole menu but having been there 2-3 times recently, my experience has always been consistent. This is a great alternative to other fast casual chains if you're in the mood for some brick oven pizza or say meatballs read more

Blaze Pizza - Front - Pizza Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Online ordering was a breeze. Pizza was ready on time & tasted great. Staff was friendly, too!

Great service and good during these cold Chicago days when we have to be onsite for work

Blaze is a great spot for a quick coal-fired pizza. A pizza and cheesy bread will last me 2-3 meals. Here's my build your own (BYO) pizza topping choices: original crust, classic red sauce, mozzarella cheese, ricotta on half, pepperoni, Italian sausage, bacon, red peppers, onions, mushrooms, spinach, roasted garlic. After the pizza came out of the oven I asked for an olive oil drizzle and arugula on top. Sometimes I'll get the pizza with red sauce and a pesto drizzle on top for more flavor, but I didn't this time since I got the pesto cheesy bread. The pizza and cheesy bread both came out in about 10-15 minutes. No line on a weeknight. Price came out to about $17 with tax. Overall I'm a fan of the BYO pizza concept, like Pieology or Mod Pizza. One thing that differentiates Blaze is they offer roasted garlic as a topping, which gives a great depth of flavor. I like the BYO option so that I can load it up with toppings, but they also have pre-set pizzas you can order if you find it a hassle to name each ingredient you want. They have gluten free options (cauliflower crust) and dairy free options (vegan cheese) as well. read more

I live nearby this Blaze Pizza location, so it's really convenient to be able to stop in and grab pizza to go when I don't feel like cooking. I placed an order online through the app and made my way to the restaurant to pick up. I was a few minutes early, but the cashier set me up with my drink and a table while I waited. She was really nice and provided excellent customer service. The food here is consistently good. It's nothing too fancy, but it hits the spot when I want something fast that I can depend on to deliver decent quality. I look forward to coming back to this location in the future. read more

This Blaze has declined badly recently especially with customer service. They use to have very friendly and good service but after today, it appears they do not value it anymore. I ordered a pick up build your own pizza on the blaze app. The employee was adamant that my order did not go through as there was no pick up under my name. A few minutes later, she then realized the pizza she was creating was for me which was a waste of both our times. I then asked if I could get a side of ranch because I forgot to add it on my order. She claimed that I would have to pay for it even though it's not even extra. This employee was unprofessional and incompetent. The pizza itself was also partially burnt. I also never received a feedback email that they typically ask so I am not sure if they just don't care about customers anymore. I don't plan on coming to Blaze if they don't plan on making it right. read more

We ordered delivery and it was fast and great! We have dairy allergies and no one got sick so that was great. The DF cheese they use is really good. The red sauce is a little spicy so just to be aware if you are sensitive to spice. We will order again when we are in town! read more

Your pizza is decent but your team's customer service is trash. Get new employees because your place will decline fast with the way it looks back there read more

White Top MVP. I've had numerous of their other premades, but I almost always get the White Top (with pesto drizzle and spinach on occasion) and always get launched into my happy place for the duration of the meal. Seriously, every time I take the first bite, I think to myself, "man this is a good pizza." I'll admit I wasn't a believer of the white sauce at first, but you have to try it! It's like Alfredo sauce. The White Top may not be the healthiest thing (creamy sauce and bacon bits) but if you're going to a pizza joint, chances are you won't mind. If you're more of a red sauce kind of person (and like spicy), the spicy tomato sauce is amazing! It's actually spicy, which is why it's amazing. Note that the premades are the same price as the build your own, so you're free to add as many toppings as you want to a premade if you want to add some flair or just feel like you're not getting your money's worth. Other tidbits: line is always long at peak lunch hours but goes fast, no line for dinner, plenty of indoor seating, outdoor seating, good service. Note that when it's packed, you have to wait in a crowd of people by the soda fountain so make sure to keep your ears open for when they call your name. read more

Blaze Pizza - White top + spinach and pesto - my faveee - Pizza Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

What A Great Idea Of Building Your Own Pizza. You are able to select your sauce, meat and any toppings you can think of on your piszza. This location is very clean. The employees are usually friendly with smiling faces. They greet you cheerfuly once you open thw door. Its like Chipotle Only you get to create and build your own pizza with various toppings. I had a pizza with a Spicy Sauce which had a bit of a kick to it. But it was delish despite of a little heated flavor. My toppings was top with sausages, spinach and a hint of spices sprinkle on top. Once you have create your master piece it is handed off to another employee. The pizza is placed inside this Big Kettle Oven that cooks your pizza until its nice and crispy around the edges. Its cool to watch your pizza being cooked in front of you The prices and quality isn't bad. They even have a nice outside seating patio on the front for you to enjoy the beautiful weather. read more

This review is based on their customer service. I saw a promo on facebook that this location was offering-- BOGO of their large pizzas. I purchased this through the app, entered the promo and saw that it was going to charge me the expected price - one pizza plus the taxes. I places my order, but there must have been a glitch in the system matrix style because when I checked the receipt it charged me to full amount and made no mention of the BOGO. I subsequently contacted Blaze via their website who said they would forward my complaint to location owner. *crickets* I followed up again via email, stating I had not yet been contacted by the owner. *crickets* If you're not going to honor your BOGO coupon, then please don't offer it in the first place. You're setting yourself up for disgruntled customers who vow never to return, particularly if you're going to ignore the when they reach out and give you an opportunity to fix the mistake. read more

I think was my first visit to a Blaze anywhere, but not my first trip to a fast food pizza joint. My daughter and I came by for lunch yesterday. It was not super quick...even though we ordered pretty simple things (dough knots, a Simple Pie and a one-topping pizza), they all came out separately, so it took about 15 minutes to get all of our food. So, that's my review of the service: meh. But the food tasted OK and all of that food plus a soda cost $19.96, so for $10/person the value is there. Good space and high table turnover, so it was easy to grab a table at 12:20 on a busy Friday. And the menu has plenty of options to go around. Not sure I will be back but glad to finally check the Blaze box!! read more

This is where pizza meets Chipotle. Well actually Subway started the 'build your own' meal craze (but Chipotle receives all the credit). Blaze uses this same approach for building your own pizza. With the exception of the crust, every other ingredient is selected by the customer. From the sauce to the seasoning the choice is yours. They have all fresh ingredients and with the 'build your own' pizza you select as many (or few) as you want. They do have some standard pizzas available but why would you come here for that? The staff is super friendly and helpful. On my first visit I appreciated them asking if it was my first time and then guiding me to the process. The person who helped me was extremely patient as I went down the line deciding what I wanted. After building your pizza, they put it blazing fire oven and 180 seconds later your name is called to pick up your pizza. Both times I've been here I ate my pizza in their dining area (which has a cool and casual feel to it) which allowed me having my pizza almost immediately after it came out of the oven. The flavor was amazing; extremely fresh. Unfortunately on both visits I did not have any leftovers so I cannot comment on how it is when warmed up the next day. If Blaze is in your area and you have not checked them out; shame on you. Get moving. And if you happen to visit a city that has a Blaze (as I did), be sure to check them out. You will not regret it. As it says on the 'Blaze' website: "Enjoy the rest of your day." read more

Blaze Pizza - My personal creation...... - Pizza Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Please come to St Louis! I was speed reading you're coming soon locations and when I saw St Louis in the second quarter I got all tingly inside. Then I re-read and realized it was St. Louis Park, MN. Lucky for them, they are getting one fabulous pizza parlor. I finished my business meeting early in the day so I had time to grab a quick lunch before boarding my train back to STL. I'd been craving pizza since I arrived in Chicago, so I headed over to Blaze. I knew it wasn't going to be Chicago deep dish, but being from Saint Louis, I do favor a thin crisp crust. If the line is long when you enter, don't worry it moves fast. Remember, Fast-Fire'd is in their name. So a blazing hot oven + dedicated elfs + 180 seconds = fast-fire'd, perfectly crisp perfection. When it was time for me to order, I chose the Meat Eater. My 11" pizza (they only come in one size) was covered in pepperoni, crumbled meatballs, red onions, red sauce and mozzarella cheese. I just love how mozzarella melts on my pizza. Since the pizzas only come in one size, here are some words of wisdom; "Every pizza is a personal pizza if you try hard and believe in yourself." In closing, I will ask you one more time, PLEASE come to St. Louis, MO. read more

Blaze Pizza - Meat Lover - Pizza Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Blaze pizza is a fast-casual setup that works quite well. When you think of pizza for lunch, you usually think of either a 45-minute wait (ie Gino's East, Giordono's, etc) or yucky pizza that is somewhat fast, like Dominos, Sbarros, Little Caesar's, etc. Thankfully, Blaze is well... Blazing fast. Pizzas made to order within 5-minutes! Much like comparing any fast-casual place to a Chipotle-style setup, Blaze pizza is no different. The staff are super-nice and they ask automatically whether it's your first time there or not. If it is, they are more than happy to explain the process. First you get a pre-rolled pizza crust. They have other varieties such as high-rise dough or gluten-free crusts, but that takes a little longer to prepare (maybe another minute or so). Blaze has different choices of pizza to choose from, such as a 1-topping pizza, or some pre-defined signature pizzas such as "meat eater" and "bbq chkn". I usually go with a build-your-own and just pick all the toppings I want: regular tomato sauce, mozarella cheese, bleu cheese, garlic cloves, bacon, artichoke hearts, chicken, spinach... all that fo' just under $9! Pay after you select your toppings, wait about 3-minutes, they'll call out your name, and then as a final touch, you can ask them to sprinkle some arugula and have them drizzle some final sauces, such as a buffalo. Pizza always comes out delicious. I topping are stellar (I picked em!) and the crusts is nice and flaky. The crust is not too much, where I don't feel like discarding them uneaten, which is what I commonly do in other places. Oh, and the kicker is that they have a nutrition calculator online, so if you're a health nut and do IIFYM, you can definitely fit in a pizza! Overall, great pizza, super-fast, and perfect for lunch or dunner. read more

OMG This place is fast!!! My pizza was ready before I had time to look over the whole menu! I love the customized fast food options (like Chipotle), and I love pizza. Blaze is a perfect combination of the two. Quick individual size customized pizzas. The ingredients were fresh, the staff was friendly and wanted to make sure my order was perfect, and the pizza was tasty. What's not to like? This place is close to Union Station, so a great food choice when walking between Union Station and Ogilvie train station or the Green Line Clinton Stop. read more

Overall, very good serving size and delicious toppings. I went with the create your own and had them throw on around 6-7 toppings, and you can have add as many toppings as you want! They throw everything on in front of you, so everything looks pretty fresh. Line moved quick and so did check out. I waited around 3-5 minutes for my pizza, which is quick. The crust is really thin and the oven must be ridiculously hot, so it cooks pretty quickly. As thin as the crust is, the pizza is like... 10" at least, so you feel very satisfied after finishing it. Come in before 11:30 if you wish to dine in, and apparently you can place an order online and go to the cash register to avoid the line. Overall very great business set up, quick service, great food, I'll be back. read more

Blaze Pizza - Build your own, toppings: Grilled chicken, bacon, pepperoni, onions, jalapenos, spinach. 10/10 would devour again - Pizza Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Crazy place! It's a relatively cheap, build your own pizza joint. There are 12 people in the kitchen/ front all yelling to be heard. "WHAT CAN I GET YOU?" and "HOW DOES YOUR CHEESE LOOK?" It's cacophonous and confusing. I got the Veg Out and they added onions, mushrooms, and broccoli but skipped the spinach, tomatoes, and other veggies. Not exactly a "veg out" if you ask me. It was pretty good aside from the outer crust, which was bitter and burnt. The gorgonzola was a little too potent for the mix, too. I'd go back and build my own in hopes of a better result and updated review. Big bonus: outdoor seating. read more

Definitely a fan. The pizza is surprisingly high quality given the pizza dough is refrigerated and then baked in an incredibly hot oven in like 3 minutes while you wait with your custom-selected toppings. The toppings are plentiful and I love that you can get unlimited quantities of the great many topping options. My go-to toppings include pepperoni, chicken, green/red peppers, and love the giardeneira. It's a good deal at a good price. I just don't understand why they try to pump the pizza smell out to the sidewalk. read more

I love coming to this place because of how close it is to me and how inexpensive it is. I love the thin crust and the fact that it is not overly greasy. I usually order the one top with pepperoni, spicy red sauce, jalapeños and mozzarella which is then cooked in an oven for about 4-5 minutes. I love the simplicity of the pizza and the fact that it is not as overwhelming as a deep dish. The service here is usually okay, but not always consistent. Sometimes the line moves quickly and other times the people who work there disappear to the back which leaves the people in the front scrambling to take all of the orders and yelling for them to come back. However, despite the inconsistency of the customer service the pizza is always on point and always hits the spot. I mean you can't beat a pizza joint where you can customize your pizza from the type of crust you want to the finishing drizzles of oil! read more

Blaze Pizza - One top with pepperoni, mozzarella and spicy red sauce! - Pizza Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Stopped by this location about a week ago... PROS: -Not very crowded at all during a weekday evening. Mostly stragglers either getting off work late or stumbling in from a work happy hour it seemed. -Staff was friendly, greeted us as we came in and pretty pleasant through the entire process of getting our pizza made -Clean and well maintained -Delicious and just as tasty as any other Blaze I've been to and cheers to endless amounts of pizza toppings CONS: -The fiancee had a coupon from her email for buy one get one for specifically this location (kind of the main reason we showed up... I mean who doesn't love free pizza) but for some reason when they rang it up they said it had been utilized at a Loyola location? Weird since coupon specifically said it was good for this location off Clinton... Anyways, to be honest no issues with food or service and easily would've been a 4 or 5 star experience, but when we have a coupon that says it's good for this location only how can it be used at a Loyola location? Doesn't add up... just sayin'. *whispers "bait 'n switch"* 'Til next time. 172/365 read more

You can't say anything bad about this place. You can make your own pizza with many of the fresh ingredients that are available. The pizza is cooked in a really cool oven and it is ready in a matter of minutes. They have specialty pizzas but you can create your own for only $8.75! If you're a fan of really thin crispy pizza, this place is a must try. Don't be intimated by the long lines you might see stretching out of the door. The staff is great and try to get people in and out as quickly as possible. Great location as well. Try it! read more

For $8.75 you can create your own pizza - pick the toppings, the cheese, and can even watch it cook. Great concept. Long lines move quickly. Blaze is a chain, yet at this particular Blaze - they put on very little in the way of toppings and cheese. Mine had tons of tomato sauce showing with the sparsity of cheese. It was filling - but I'd look elsewhere if you want a more solid pizza.. read more

Pretty solid for another fast pizza chain. Came by for pi day, where pizzas were $3.14 a piece. Great deal since normally, it;s $8.95 per pie. Line was out the door but moved relatively quick, was in and out in about an hour. Read a quote on the internet that perfectly describes me when it comes to good deals/free things - I've "got more time than sense." Darn right. Things to note -They have gluten/vegan options, for a surcharge of course. -You can get extra sauce like BBQ or pesto at the end, I rec'd this. -Unlimited toppings. Ask for double of something if you want more of something. Like pineapple. Yum. read more

This was my first time at Blaze, and I'm sure it's officially changed the way I will eat pizza in the future. It's crazy how $8.75 gets YOU ANYTHING you want on a pizza and it's made within 5-10 minutes. Talk about on-demand! I got the Link In toppings as my base and added jalapeños, spinach and spicy red sauce. The pizza was so fresh and delicious, I couldn't finish the whole thing on my own though! Unless you have a huge appetite, sharing 1 pizza for 2 people is the way to go. Their customer service was wonderful too! We had the Manager come by our table s handful of times while we were there to make sure we were okay. I've never seen that before at a 'fast food' place, ever! read more
