First time going here on Wednesday 8/5 around 6pm. We were hungry after getting a tire repair done across the street and Blaze Pizza was nearby, so we figured why not try a new pizza spot. It was super busy (about 7 people in line for take out orders) and the restaurant side had around 5 groups eating in. We were getting 2 pizzas to go so my husband decided on a deep dish garlic cheese and I got the pesto cheese pizza. He got mushrooms and olives on his, then asked for a splash of balsamic vinegar sauce. I didn't get any extra toppings and just asked for it to be well-done. Waiting for our order took about 10 minutes. While we were waiting, we noticed the double glass doors didn't close entirely so hot air kept blowing in from outside even when no one was using the doors. There were more people getting into the line to order pizza and a few kids running around barefoot from the dine-in tables. The service seemed fast but the whole ordering line was a bit of a clustermess. The place is also not as clean as I would expect a food service location to be (sticky floors, wrappers/tissues oj the ground, tables with crumbs) but it was quite busy so maybe they just hadn't had time to tidy up. Anyway, after a bit of waiting, we picked up our order and left to eat in the car. Turns out they mixed up the topping and I had the balsamic vinegar on my pesto pizza and my husband didn't have any on his. Either way, even with that hiccup, my pizza still tasted good - reminded me of a soft bread stick consistency with the dough. My husband's pizza tasted better, maybe since he went classic (cheese, tomato sauce) and mine was more of a white pizza. Order with tip was about $35. Bry at the cashier area was really friendly and sweet so she made the food wait tolerable. Overall, we might not go back since the food line workers did not have hair or beard nets and one of the workers was pretty loud / obnoxious to his co-workers. Parking situation was also not great since the free lot does not have enough room for larger vehicles which makes double-parking a problem. read more

Blaze pizza will always be an option for us. While traveling we found a near by location and decided to have dinner after a super long day. We ordered our usual ( carnivore pizza , meatball and Greek salads ) and enjoyed a nice cold beer. This location has indoor and outdoor seating areas which made it nice . Service was ok not great. They never asked us which pizza we wanted and assumed and then added salad dressing to our salad before asking us which we preferred which was annoying but they offered to remake the salad which made it alittle better. read more

We pulled up and noticed it was pretty full inside with people enjoying their food (which was a good sign) and we finally found a place to park and walked inside. If we hadn't felt so rushed through the process, I think we would've enjoyed ourselves more because I simply didn't hear it when they told my husband that the build your own pizza was whatever toppings for the same price. I thought we had to keep them to only 3 and therefore didn't get what I really wanted on my pizza... I would recommend this being rectified by them telling the person ordering (each one) that the build your own pizza was unlimited toppings --whichever ones you want! Also, the tiny placards stating what was what were difficult to see...not old person friendly... Next time, I'll know and get what I'd like on my darn pizza! The drinks were limited and I'd also recommend them getting a Freestyle machine so there's a much better choice in drinks. I don't drink dark soda (ones with caramel coloring) and there weren't any options in zero sugar other than that, much to my disappointment... The pizza was pretty good, it was kinda clean, but I think we just beat the dinner rush because as we cleaned up after ourselves and turned to leave, the line was queing up past the door! We didn't get a chance to try the salads or anything else unfortunately, but next time should be better. read more

Blaze Pizza - Pretty clean outside with nice umbrellas over tables with plenty of seating too - Salad Near Me - Gainesville, Florida

Glad we read the reviews before going so we felt prepared when we got there. We ordered a side salad to share and it was big for a side salad, even sharing we weren't able to finish it. It was the chopped salad and very good. There are a lot of crust, sauces, cheeses, and toppings you can choose from to add to your personal pizza. There are some pre-designed pizzas you can choose from if making your own feels overwhelming. Servers and staff were all friendly and helpful. Location was clean. There is both indoor and outdoor seating available. We will be back when in the area again. read more

Blaze Pizza - Build your own pizza - half white sauce/half spicy red sauce And a carnivore pizza with extra toppings - Salad Near Me - Gainesville, Florida

The $10 2 topping pizza and a drink deal is really good! The brick oven pizza is good, and there's lots of topping to choose from. The place is pretty small though, so maybe it gets packed during busy times. Our food was very good, the homemade lemonade was great, and it was clean and quick. read more

Blaze Pizza - Salad Near Me - Gainesville, Florida

Well, after several years, I'm bumping this up to five stars. I've been eating at this place since it's open and it's my favorite pizza place in town. I grew up eating genuine, New York City pizza and that has been my gold standard when evaluating any pizza joint. All this still isn't up to that level, it's still the best pizza I've had in Florida. The fact that you can add as many toppings as you want on a build your own pizza allows me to get things I would never ordinarily order when getting pizza. just consistently good every time we go. The staff is amazing and the places always sort of hopping. Great vibe. read more

Excellent ! The made to order pizzas are quite delicious. The restaurant is immaculate, and all the staff very friendly ! I look forward to eating there again. read more

Andrew was the gentleman who took our order, he was so friendly and full of charisma. I ordered a build your own gluten free pizza with a glove change, and my boyfriend a regular build your own. My boyfriend noticed that the one associate who was pulling my pizza bread out did not change gloves and spoke up, Andrew clarified to him before it was too late thankfully. I hope this is corrected in the future as I am someone who would have an actual allergic reaction to gluten contamination. Troy assisted in building our foods, who changed gloves immediately for me and also pulled my toppings from underneath to ensure no cross contamination which I appreciated SO much! He was also very pleasant to speak with and very friendly! Shout out to those boys! Overall the entire restaurant needs to be thoroughly cleaned and maintained throughout the day as well. It was very dirty on the floor, food and trash all over and also the topping bar was very dirty as well. We have been to multiple Blaze Pizza's and this one by far both times we've come here is the absolute dirtiest of them. The remainder of the team was sorta in cahoots, the Lutz location has it down pat if they need some help with team operations/organizations. I appreciate Andrew and Troy for being so understanding and friendly!

first time here. very helper. will come back. Like the idea of picking what you want on the pizza. And fire grilled!

Amazing fast-ish pizza place that's very popular! They have a variety of "special" pizzas that just have a selection of toppings, or you can build your own pizza with different sizes starting at $9. I recommend build your own and absolutely loading on the toppings. The workers will just add what you please and your pizza may look like a salad by the end. Stop by and try it out! Make sure to download the app too because on 3/14 they give everyone an offer for a $3.14 build your own read more

Ordered online for some late night grub as we got in late. I tried to do pickup but for some reason Yelp ordering defaulted back to delivery. Whatever. The food was great and hit the spot. We tried several different pizzas. Be careful 11in is just half a pizza. Idk what I thought but kids were like ummmmm lol Either way all the pizzas were delish Also tried each dessert and they were great too read more

We ordered food in from a hotel. The Caprese Salad and cauliflower crust pepperoni pizza with artichokes and mushrooms was tasty as was the meatballs side. The flatbread with pesto had too little pesto for my wife's taste. Overall, the food was quite good tasting, and we'd order again. I imagine if we could have eaten at the restaurant it would have been fabulous. read more

They have a good selection of toppings and signature creations, but overall I was disappointed with my pizza. It was undercooked, flaky, and falling apart. The workers there also rushed me and didn't give me much of a chance to look at the topping options which flustered me. They are also overpriced in my opinion. I got the regular crust and I just didn't like it. read more

Went to Blaze and thankfully no long line. Was greeted nicely by Amber so I told her my name was Amber so they could call her name when my pizza was ready. Staff was great. They had a prize wheel and thankfully Tanisha told me what to do to play. I won a free bottle (Thanks Doug)! The Bottle matches my car perfectly... the pizza is good too as usual! read more

Love going here and getting a pizza with what I want on it. My younger brother told me about this place many years ago- so glad he did. Thanks, Andy. read more

So I have heard of this place and passed by many of them so finally decided to give it a try. I am a New Yorker and love our pizza, I have tried many other "fast food" pizza places and they never seem to make the grade. As you walk in you are greeted by what looks like a sald bar but is actually the pizza bar with all the fresh toppings. They have pre-designed pizzas or you can design your own. I started with a traditional cheese pizza and a order of pesto garlic bread. The pesto garlic bread is baked and the cheese is melted on to a nice texture with pockets of golden brown pieces. The pesto sauce is drizzled on to provide that robust flavor with a hint of garlic. Now the pizza. A thin crust wood fired pizza. Everything is measured out to provide a standard flavor for each piece. The sauce has a little flavor that does not overpower the cheese and we all know the cheese is what makes a pizza, lol. The store is very clean and the staff was very friendly and attentive. I would come back! read more

Over Roasted Pizza at its finest!! Each time I go to one of these establishments, no matter what state I am on, I receive great service and the food always taste amazing!! One important thing that stool out about this pizzeria, is the variety or pizza selections and styles. Check out a "Blaze" Pizza near you, and let me know what you think! read more

This restaurant has an upscale pizza subway vibe. I ordered the build your own pizza with classic dough, original red sauce, Italian sausage, ham, mushroom, roasted garlic, spinach, tomato, oregano, and in oil drizzle. I also ordered the house blood orange lemonade. It was very delicious. It was refreshing and not too sweet not too sour. The staff were very courteous and everyone made sure to address me by my name. In fact they went above and beyond complimenting and talking to my baby that was in my arms as well. I would definitely recommend if you are interested in a high-quality fresh pizza on the go. read more

Blaze Pizza - Curbside Service - Salad Near Me - Gainesville, Florida

This spot has been consistently good all around. Their service is always efficient and friendly. The restaurant is always clean and organized. Most importantly, the pizzas are always so good! It is very similar to MOD pizza up north, but in my opinion the service and pizza is better. Great place to go with a big group because everyone gets to customize what they want on their pizza. I would like to note that even when the line seems long, it moves very fast and the pizzas come out fast. I recommend getting the app for rewards and the ability to order online. Perfect place to either dine in or take out. read more

Dear, Gentle Readers, you may be thinking in those heads of yours "5 stars, for a Chain Pizza joint?" Now, I'm not asking you to expect the world here, but for the price, and for the convenience, I can hardly imagine a better pie than Blaze. Several different fresh ingredients, quality service, and endless options make for a great fast-food sit-down hybrid. For these reasons, Blaze is a Bad Bitch Bite, sometimes bad bitches are on a budget, what can I say? ‍go for the build-your-own and be sure to throw some chorizo on that girl read more
