    Cinnamon Bread
    Cassie E.

    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.

    The service was quick and efficient. The pizza is a perfect size for a single person (granted I eat a lot). I've never eaten in the restaurant but it looked clean.

    Build your own pizza

    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.

    White top + spinach and pesto - my faveee
    Chris M.

    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.

    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.

    My personal creation......

    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."

    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.

I make better salads and dressings! We ordered a large pan pizza which was overly salty with burnt crust edges. The cheese and tomato sauce were really good, but the saltiness killed it for me. The place was packed and very noisy. Not sure if it was quieter on the second floor. When you have lots of customers, it's important to have a system of checking the status of the restrooms very often. They were quite neglected. We often have out-of-town and foreign guests to host and show off our city to. We always include a deep dish pizza meal for their experience, and usually at Lou Malnati's. Always a great experience, especially the branch in downtown Naperville- consistently good. And Lou's really makes the best salad than anywhere! Sometimes for a potluck contribution I just pick up a Lou's salad, guaranteed to make everyone happy. However, our guests enjoyed the pizza and dessert; thus, I can give 3 stars for our experience at Pequod's.
