OK so let's start this little experience of a recent early evening Friday visit. First off getting to the restaurant is very challenging because of being located at the corner of two of the busiest streets in town which means you can only turn in heading north on Coldwater Rd. or east on Coliseum Blvd. If you do manage to get in and they are even the slightest bit busy, parking will be a challenge and the design of the parking lot is very dangerous pulling in and then out of the parking spots. Best bet is to go past the restaurant and park in the larger attached shopping center parking lot and walk. Once inside it is very confusing what you need to do because you have people wandering around in all directions and there is no one from the place helping to guide people especially when the line is long. Once we managed to get inside, it took over an hour of waiting between getting through the line, ordering the pizza, paying our bill, waiting again for the pizza to be cooked, getting our drinks and then finding a place to sit. What happens is that people grab seats while another person waits in line to order - which is a good strategy, but creates confusion and chaos in the dining area. The drink area is stuffed in a corner in the same spot where people are heading to the bathroom and picking up their pizzas which creates even more of a traffic jam. Finally the restaurant is floor to ceiling glass windows so depending on what time you are there it creates wicked sun issues - even to the point that patrons were eating with their sunglasses on inside the place. Blinds anyone? Now the food. I'm not sure why anyone would order one of their signature pizzas which is the same price as creating your own. You can get every single topping including all of the cheeses, all of the meats, and all of the extras for the same price as a signature pizza that might only have one cheese, a couple of meats, and a veggie or two. Just order the create-your-own and have them put loads of cheeses and toppings for the same price. The salads are pre-made and during our visit were not kept up and did not look very appetizing. Drinks are about $2 bucks and they have Blue Sky brand options which is a nice touch. The pizza was very good, appreciated getting to try a beverage that you cannot get anywhere else, but the employees were not very friendly and appeared to be mostly confused about the process. One thing that I did notice was that some people skipped the line, grabbed a table, ordered online from their phones, and just went to the register and paid for a drink. That way you just sit and wait for the pizza to be made while you have a front row view of all of the chaos. i will admit that I enjoyed watching all of the people trying to figure this crazy place work through all of their growing pains because this location has just recently opened, but I'm thinking I will probably give them a little time before I go back so they can get some things figured out. Overall the concept is good, the food and drinks were outstanding, but I'm just not willing to wait and wait and wait when they're busy to order a create your own pizza. My best advice is wait until they get their staff trained a little better, get some blinds or something to cut down on the sun, and figure out how to get people through the line a little quicker so that folks can enjoy their food. I know that patience is a virtue, but my goodness there are just too many places to eat where one doesn't have to wait an hour in line to get something to eat. I was reading their menu and it says that they cook your pizza in about 180 seconds, but it takes 3600 seconds to actually order and eat it. read more

They had good pizza , service was ok. I don't like businesses that don't fulfill a service request or don't give good service just because they are busy. You should be proud that you are busy and treat all customers in the best of manner. read more

Bf told me this is the fastest growing pizza chain! We went here when it first opened and have been coming back ever since. You basically just get in line and tell them how to make your pizza. Sounds awesome right?! We always get whatever we're feeling like that day and it comes out awesome every time. Ingredients are fresh with sooo many toppings and cheeses. Although I do have one complaint... that charcoal on the bottom of the pizza always bother me but my bf tells me that's how it's supposed to be... but I guess it's too much char for me lol. The pizzas are a thin crust but I believe a thicker crust is available. I think the salads are okay. I'm not a huge fan about it. Don't forget to get their tea drinks. It's pretty good with three(?) different kinds of flavors. Yes, the line can get ridiculously long but it's worth the wait. Yep, we're coming back. :) read more

This place has become the worst place to eat in Fort Wayne Terrible experience with the a pizza order at 9:30 pm Place was very dirty. 2 people working hard but took forever. But then when I got ready to pay another lady came out (Vicki) very rude and unprofessional. Never gave me a receipt when I asked about how to scan the rewards. Then she made a rude comment when another patron came in at 9;45 pm about "doesn't he know how to tell time it's closed ". I asked her don't you close at 10 pm she said yes. I said well he is here to be served then correct ? I asked fir my money back and she said she didn't know how ? But she was the manager. When I asked for the district manager name she became more rude. I told her I was going to contact Corporate and then she went in back to call the store manager to tell him a different version since she said she didn't say what I heard her say Which was very clear. She began to change her story. Told me to leave since I said I wanted to know if this is corporate or a franchise location. read more

Came in to try and get a quick pizza was met with service that was well below par. The individuals making the pizza were more worried about having conversations with each other rather than serve the customer. I was stuck waiting to get my pizza for 50 minutes. Very disappointing to say the least. read more

The concept is good. Similar to Medici but they are not organized. You don't have any idea what is available until you are there to order and they don't give you time to look at the menu or options. It is rush rush rush. And that I didn't like. Again the concept is good the execution is what is awful. The pizza is good though. read more

This spot is fine especially for teens and hipsters. The reviews said that it was a good place for kids, that's far from the truth. No plates and tight on napkins. Needless to say we got our pizza and got out. read more

Was excited to check this place out!!! The food was decent enough. But I was disappointed and surprised with the lack of cleanliness and the overall environment. There wasn't a clean table, the bathroom was filthy, and there was trash and spilled liquid everywhere. The employees didn't greet a soul, yawned and could hardly stay focused. read more

I stop in here quite a bit for lunch but so disappointed today, 10/10/22. Not that busy and they were SO slow (I have to get back to work) but got my pizza, as I was leaving seen the manager Shania (I know her name cause I'm here all the time) in a car with another employee (name?) smoking pot! Seriously? They might not be so slow if all their employees were actually working and NOT high! Highly disappointed today! Pizza was good though. read more

I am a manager for a local sports team. We had a fundraiser the other evening. Getting the approval from Blaze Pizza was the easiest process I have ever done. I had the approval within 1 hour. However, the evening of the dine in, I am not so sure they were ready for us. The wait in line was 1/2 hour or more. The line was quite long, which was good for us regarding our supporters who came out to help us. All in all, by the time everyone in our group was served, I believe everyone was satisfied. I do have to say, I LOVED LOVED the pizza!! My husband also loved his. I will definitely go back, in fact I am planning to go there this evening for dinner. Also, I love their hours. It is hard to find places open later in Fort Wayne. read more

Had the BBQ chicken pizza which was great especially with blue cheese, something I wouldn't normally put on a pizza. Paired with a lemonade that taste Ike fresh squeezed. Crust was just right, the only thing I'd change is adding more banana peppers. The location could be better as it sits at an extremely busy intersection and their lot is tight. read more

Honestly so slow it's borderline impressive. They had two people working, and both of them were moving very slowly. We had to wait 15 minutes before ordering, despite being the only ones in the store that didn't already have their pizza. read more

I love this location because Leonard always makes sure all the pizzas are cooked perfectly!! He deserves some recognition for making these pizzas amazing!! I always look for Leonard when I walk in so I know that my pizza will turn out perfect. read more

Ordered 2 Blaze pizzas through doordash app. They put spoonfuls of garlic all over the pizza, to the point it was too over powering to eat and had to be thrown away. Tried to pick garlic off but the pizza was ruined. Tried to call store and no answer. Emailed corporate and no response. read more

Been to this location 6 times since it opened. They have been packed every time we go, line to or out the door. But service is always with a smile and they are having fun. The manager they brought in from MI is great! Food has been excellent. They cook my High Rise pizza with a crispy crust but the slices have some chew, just the way I like it. Last night; Saturday, September 30; my wife and I met my co-worker and his wife. They seemed a few employees short and when we got into range we heard a few employees apologize that they had some people quit without notice and are down staff for the evening. Everyone in line was talking and watching and patience. On a Friday or Saturday evening you can't go to any restaurant and expect seats, service and food in 30 minutes. In Fort Wayne during dinner hours those days it can be 90 minutes to just be seated and then 30 minutes for appetizers. We had our food and were sitting to eat within 55 minutes at the busiest dinner time on Saturday night! There was one customer that decided to become belligerent, (I am being nice cause he was really the South end of a North bound Donkey!), and everyone around him rolled their eyes as he was loud and rude to the entire staff & customers. The manager from MI came down to talk to the customer and then later was around the counter as he was at the register talking to him again. I have been in a retail career for years and now in corporate education for retail employees. This manager had the patience of divine intervention. I would have struggled to maintain my composer with this customer, which when I walked by smelled of alcohol. To what this manager with the customer twice and was amazing and a great show of Blaze Pizza professionalism. The man took his two pizzas and sat outside with his companion and at them all. I will absolutely be back for more from this location. Of all the locations in IN & MI I have visited this one has been busier and still exhibits the best you have to offer. Our 4 pizzas were great, as well as our salads. Thanks too the crew: Big Mama Jarmir Bri Danae Pre Harley Mad Max Sydney Tre read more

Stopped in for lunch the other day. Unlike other reviews, our service was rather slow. There were only three people in front of us, but they must have been ordering everything on the menu or the staff was moving at a snails pace. Waited in line for quite a time until being able to put in our order at the counter. Ordered three different pizzas and two salads. All were pretty good in taste, but could have used just a bit more time in the oven. Two of our pizzas were on their speciality list - "Art Lover" (art - as in artichoke) and some type of meat one (name escapes me at the current time). The interesting part with these - the gal putting together our pizza only put two pieces of artichoke on the Art Lover. Huh? How can you call this pizza 'Art lover' if you're only adding two pieces of the "main" ingredient? There was more cheese, sauce, and garlic on the pie than artichokes. So ... if this is typical - I think Blaze ought to rename the pizza. Maybe "Art Minimalist"? I asked her three different times to add more artichokes to the pie which she did by take one small piece of artichoke and breaking it up into even smaller pieces. Then she asked "is that enough?" No, no, and even in the end no... I finally gave in and gave up trying to help her realize this pie she was make by didn't match its namesake. Well - the meat one was really no different. Same sort of a scenario. The pizza was to feature 'meat'. Mmmm. Only two kinds and just a few pieces leaves me to wonder if the gal making the pies has been trained properly or if Blaze knows how to name its pizzas appropriately. The final verdict---perhaps it was an off day for the crew? Maybe I'd stop back in. The prices were good, the food was decent, but the service left me wondering. Is it worth another trip back or not? Stop in if you're in the area and decide for yourself. Perhaps your experience will be similar or perhaps it will be entirely different. read more

My favorite pizza place!! Service is amazing for the customer service and also for the food. They always have my order ready really fast and always meet my expectations to the fullest. read more

Stopped in for lunch. Was pleasantly surprised it was a build your own pizza joint that wood fires the pizza. The line to start is a little strange as people try to come in from different areas. The ingredients are free of preservatives, dyes and no high fructose corn syrup. We ordered two build your own pizzas. They were nothing short of amazing. Word of warning, the spicy marinara is hot! It will make your eyes cry but its worth the taste! They offer Blue Sky soda and also coca cola. The lemonade is also REALLY good and worth a try. We will be back for sure. Excited to have a place like this in the Fort! read more

Got a carry out pizza and it was pretty good. To the guy who said this was cracker style crust idk what he's talking about. It's not similar to a cracker at all. Yes the edges of the crust are a bit crispy due to being woodfired but that's how it's supposed to be. The middle of the pizza has a soft chewy crust. Also there is an option to get thicker crust for 2$ more but I didn't try that. The sauce has a nice flavor and the toppings are good. I will get it again. read more

The Pizza is usually very good, but we went on a Sunday and the staff was very slow and burnt one of the pizza, so ending up waiting for another one, wanted to have arugula as a finisher, that was soggy, will never go there again, good luck to them!!!!! read more

So tonight went in to pick up a mobile order, and they made my pizza completely wrong. It didn't have any red sauce, and they added chicken, onions, red peppers, olives, and disgusting pesto sauce, none of which I ordered. To top it off my pizza had a hair cooked into that i disgustingly pulled out of my mouth as I was attempting to eat the horrible pizza. As it was a mobile order,I was already at home by the time I realized all of this was wrong. I called the restaurant and they promised me a free pizza next time I come in. Buyer beware, especially if you are coming in on a Saturday evening, the crew might just completely mess up your order and leave a nice piece of hair in your food. Very disappointing as we have visited many other times and loved the pizza. read more

We ordered 2 pizzas, 2 drinks and cheesy pesto bread. First we had to go back up and ask for our drinking to fill. Then I went up FIVE times to ask for our bread. We were done with our dinner and I asked for a refund. I was told it was done, but then given to another customer. Finally got it on our way out the door. No appologies and denied a refund. This was my 1st and last visit. Pizza and bread were alright, but customer service lacked for a $32 order for 2... read more

Love this place so much! The first time I came here was when it was National Pi Day on March 14 because of 3.14! So I got a customized personal pizza for $3 and it was soooo worth it! On other days, customized pizzas cost roughly $8. Which is still a good deal! Personally, my pizza order consists of spicy tomato sauce, chicken, bacon, onions, spinach, banana peppers, garlic, and oregano drizzled with buffalo sauce and pesto sauce! The best combo ever! read more

I just had one of the best Pizza's of my life! Nothing beats custom built pizza by the awesome team at FW Blaze! "Savage Kassie" and "Minx" are a dynamic duo! They really take the time to build your pizza just right without missing any of their fresh toppings. Service is awesome, prompt and dialed. I have never had a bad pie here. Restaurant is always clean can't wait for it to warm up so I can eat outside. Wish they sold beer read more

With dietary restrictions, service and being able to accommodate my families needs is super important and hard to find. Me found that in Blaze. Great pizza, great service, good atmosphere. Dairy free, gluten free options. Goat cheese. Super good. read more

I am very impressed by the Blaze on Coliseum. Everything was good the crust , the sauce, the cheeses , the toppings. We had the build your own pizza and high rise crust. It was much better than Pizza Hut. Pizza Hut had better wake up and quit lessening their quality or they will fall by the wayside. Blaze is also less expensive whats not to like? read more

Great location! The staff was so nice! One employee (I think the manager) had a sling on her arm was busting her butt. I really enjoyed my visit. They were super busy but the tables were cleaned quickly and there were plenty of places to sit because of their urgency to clean the tables. I will be back in the Fort next week and will be making a stop! The one and only downfall, and it's not their fault, is the parking lot. It's a little confusing to get in. read more

I've heard a lot of mixed reviews and wanted to try so we went in on a Saturday around 6 pm. The place was really busy which was a good sign ( I thought ) As we sat in line 2 people left due to the wait. We got up to the counter and the girl let us know all about the menu. We ordered the green stripe which came with pesto drizzle over grilled chicken, roasted red peppers, chopped garlic, mozzarella, arugula. minus the arugula and some garlic pesto dough-knots. The order was put at 6:25 PM the knots came out about 7 min later and were not bad but did not stand out and did not have a dipping sauce which IMHO would have made them more enjoyable. 5min later I saw the pizza come out with about 7 others. There was one person matching orders to go and dine in. The orders were stacked on top of each other to the point that the person matching was clearly flustered. I waited patiently as he kept looking back and forth at the pizza and the orders. After at least 5 min I let him know which one was mine. By this time the pizza was warm. ( 7 PM ) He also failed to put any of the so-called "pesto driz" on the pie, I opted out for trying to get back up and let them know. The co ncept is cool, the recipes sound great the crust was crunchy as it should have been, the pie was meh. Will I return? maybe, maybe not. I could get a frozen pizza and have a similar experience. I would like to give a second chance though since everyone has off days. Overall not bad if you don't mind waiting for more than 30 min for a sub-par pie. There are many other places that will work harder to please you.. Try local for a better experience guaranteed.. read more

Employees continued to over look customers in line. Once we finally got to order only one of the employees was nice and respectful the rest had an attitude did not have good service Also the restaurant was extremely warm and uncomfortable read more

So good. Fresh, fast and consistent. What else could you ask for. Also their drink selection is unique. They have different types of lemonade and such. read more

Definitely just a set up from Lil Caesars. While waiting on my car to be serviced, I walked over for lunch. The only thing I liked was the ability to pick what I wanted on the pizza however then end result was just lame. I'll pay a little more and continue to go elsewhere. read more

Place attention is definitely not what you expect. For new people you are gonna be completely lost because no one tells you what to do or even guide you in the process or ordering. A completely shame for a place where the main focus is to really build you own pizza. read more

This location had 3 of 5 employees wearing their masks improperly. One employee was kind enough to understand our concern and he personally made our pizzas. His name tag said bean. Otherwise, the pizza is always delicious. read more

Do not go to Blaze if you are looking for Gluten free pizza for celiacs. The staff is not well trained and they don't understand that many people eat Gluten free for reasons other than a fad diet. The dough press, ingredients, and utensils are all cross contaminated. Celiacs beware read more

What you get for the price is hard to beat. The gluten free crust is really good. Just plain delicious.

Friendly service and their pizzas are good! It's a subway but with pizzas. I love how I get to choose whatever goes on my pizza! It's really fast too :) read more

Stopped here for a quick pizza with the kids. It was very quick and the staff was very friendly. I'd say the pizza was just average though. There was a nice little outdoor patio area where we sat. So, if you're looking for a quick, average pizza, give it a try. read more

We are so grateful to have stumbled across this place. We were on the hunt for vegan pizza and found that and beyond. Has the gf option, daiya cheese and vegan pesto at the end of the line. Cash made our pizzas he was super friendly and helpful. We will definitely be coming back. Also love the craft drinks. :) read more
