    2 vegetarian pizzas made how we like it. Excellent service and quick.
    Rachel V.

    Quick style pizza, very clean atmosphere and friendly staff. We each got make your own pizza and I was able to split my sauces in half to try two different ones.

    4 Cheese with Spicy Red Sauce topped with Arugula

    I ordered a 4 cheese with spicy red sauce and arugula delivery I'm less than a quarter mile away at the Springhill Suites toppings were good not great and the crust was like chewing rubber. Not sure about this but the great reviews make me want to dine in and see what's up. Willing to give it another try

    We had a break in our Track meet and decided to get food real quick. I ordered the half Carnivore Pizza and Greek Salad with Balsamic Dressing. It took less than 5 minutes in line and ordering. We sat outside since the weather was nice. The food was so good that I forgot to take a photo of the salad before eating it. I definitely will come back when I'm in town.

    Pretty clean outside with nice umbrellas over tables with plenty of seating too

    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.

    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.

    I went to Blaze Pizza for the first time today and thoroughly enjoyed it! I cannot eat cheese so I was very appreciative of their vegan cheese option. I loved that they have the option to create a custom pizza and the service was quick! I would definitely like to return.

    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!

    Do u make Greek pizzas?

    I don't remember an explicitly Greek Pizza on the menu, but they have a build your own pizza with tons of topping options, so you could build your own if you wanted. They do have feta, chicken, olives, and cherry tomatoes, but I'm not sure about…

Just very unique and memorable place to eat!

    Finally tried the infamous Satchel's Pizza and I was a little disappointed to be honest. Ever since…read moreI came to Gainesville, the biggest food rec has been Satchel's by far. This is a very popular, iconic eatery in the area and gets busy. The atmosphere and ambiance is quite unique and like nothing I'd ever seen before. A very eclectic scene, the indoor and outdoor area is full of artwork, plants, and even stuff like old planes, buses, etc. There is truly nothing like it elsewhere! They offer both sit down and takeout options. You can opt for takeout and find seating in the takeout area or you can receive dine-in services. I recently dined here during move in--it was EXTREMELY busy and I would recommend going during times where mass amounts of students and their families aren't in town. We ended up putting our names down on the sit-down list and were told to expect up to a 1.5hr wait for the three of us. Although I ended up receiving a text about 50min later that our table was ready. The service was just ok. They were clearly swamped, but I was expecting them to handle this a little better considering they are used to this. We ended up being seated outside and ordered immediately. To start, we got the Satch Salad with ham and for our pizza we ordered the large 18" pie with pepperoni, ricotta, and basil. The Satch salad is highly regarded featuring red and green leaf lettuce, carrots, cucumbers, apples, a hint of finely diced red onion, Romano cheese, freshly diced tomatoes, a sprinkle of almonds, sunflower seeds, and pecan pieces, tossed in a secret house vinaigrette. The small salad, which feeds up to four, was quite large and the perfect size for the three of us. The salad had ample amounts of toppings, but it honestly was just ok. The dressing didn't have a prominent flavor, which was disappointing because so many people rave about it. We received our pizza at least an hour later. The wait was very, very long and honestly too long for what we received. The pie was large, with plenty of pepperoni and ricotta, but it just wasn't very balanced. It was so heavy, with so much sauce you couldn't even pick it up and eat it by the slice (had to use a fork and knife). Now I will say the sauce had great flavor, but there was way too much of it. It was also hard to taste the elements of the pie due to it being served straight from the oven and being extremely hot. The "buttery crust" many people mention wasn't very buttery and was just like average pizza crust. Not to mention, the pizza was burnt on the bottom and clearly overcooked. I was really surprised at how mediocre this pizza was after hearing so many fabulous things about it. Nothing was comped for our long wait either--which wasn't expected because everyone was waiting this long for their food too. Overall, Satchel's didn't blow my mind and fell very flat to me. The atmosphere is certainly memorable and very unique. I appreciated the fun, hippy-like vibe with all the various nick-nacks, but the food wasn't my favorite. The salad was just ok and the infamous dressing didn't have much flavor. The wait for the pizza was insane, especially considering the execution of it. I understand part of my not-so-great experience is due to the time in which we decided to dine here. I would definitely like to return to get a better judgement of the food and service. Not all the pizzas seemed to be the same either--I noticed pies with less toppings (or lighter toppings) had much less sauce, thin, and eatable by the slice. So I am not adverse to coming here again, I'd actually really like to because I don't think my experience was the best representation of what this restaurant is known for!

    I often went to SquareHouse Pizza thinking it would be like when they first opened, but it makes…read moresense after they separated from Satchels it would never be the same. I have come time and time again disappointed with the pizza size and the time it took to make it. Size: Pizza used to come in the size of their box! As you can see in my picture, that is no longer the case. It is no longer an actual square like its namesake but a rectangle. It reminds me of "all squares are rectangles, but not all rectangles are squares." And while it makes me chuckle to think how SquareHouse should know that. I am still disappointed in paying for that much of a pizza when I could get a larger one to share with friends at the same price point elsewhere. Service: Now I understand they can get busy but one time I waited 25 minutes with only one person ahead of me for my food -- a before anyone says anything. I ordered their waffles. Another time, they never called my name. They have a speaker but don't use it. It is a food park with tables everywhere. If you don't use the speaker system and know folks sit further than you can scream, then I think they should give a beeper. Ambience: It's at the food park which is great as long as it's not raining bc spaces to sit under covered areas are limited. And bc it was previously partnered with Satchels it has the same vibe. Overall, go once if you haven't but just be ready for disappointment Update since writing to address the comments of the business owner: 1) When I say first opened, I meant when it was called SatchSquared. 2) Size of the pizza: You're right I looked at pictures and updated. They aren't squares but from one years ago. They definitely filled the box more. 3) I sincerely don't appreciate being told about waiting or orders ahead and phone calls. I have come here more than 20 times and my experiences are always the same. I've come at opening, during high traffic times, and etc. And I am not someone to review after one instance of a place, I like to give them chances. I have lived in Gainesville for 17 years, and I'm very well aware of being polite to residents. I have definitely sat in the tables in the covered area close to the pick up window and have had to ask if my food was ready bc my name was not called and just to find out it was ready. I gave a suggestion about using beepers like the other places. I'm sorry my review caused some upset feeling but I stand by it. Service is not great. If you wanted to discuss via email then you could've politely said that. I won't be returning. Thanks!

The owner stopped by our table before we left and graciously offered to take a photo for us so thank you for that. Always a pleasure to meet the management. Pricing was fair considering the large portions and quality of the food. We had separate checks so our share of the food (including a to go order of Chicken Souvlaki and Kokkinisto!) was about $125 with generous tip. Free parking lot outside the restaurant is shared but there were still many spots to choose from. We'll certainly be back again ^_^ !!
