Great and fast food! Enjoyed their summer special for kids. Restaurant itself is always loud and lively so don't go there when you're tired from a long day at work! read more

Got my order wrong both times and both workers made excuses for it. Apparently those workers were the acting managers at the time. Looks like this location needs some additional training for the basics in customer service, like actually listening to your customers. Some advice, when you ask a customer a question if they would like ranch drizzled all over on their pizza, it would be wise to actually wait until they answered you. And if a customer is talking to you, please stop and listen to what they are saying, and maybe you wouldn't have the order wrong 2 times. read more

I love how many crust options Blaze is now offering. Since I started The keto diet, the one thing I missed was going out for pizza, and Blaze solved that problem! There's alternative options such as gluten free and "keto" crust for an additional charge. You have the option of also doing half and half for sauces on the pizza and building your own, with unlimited toppings. If you cannot have dairy or have allergies to it, there is dairy free cheese. The staff is super friendly and consciously keep their eye on your pizza, so it doesn't overly cook. They are only accepting to go orders at this time, but there is plenty of seating outside in their patio or around the rest of the plaza. read more

Blaze Pizza - Build your own pizza, keto crust - Pizza Near Me - Irvine, California

I love blaze and had a great experience last night! Writing a review to say Richard was extremely helpful and knowledgeable- great customer service! read more

Came to blaze with damn near 30 minutes until close and got turn away on pie day, insane! Just lazy

This location is at UC Irvine on the back side by Chipotle and the Amazon drop off shipping store. You enter in the left and order then pay then wait for your food either seated or take it to go. We always love the build your own pizza on original crust but they do offer preset pizzas you can order too if you dont feel like choosing all your toppings. I love how Blaze offers many fresh toppings that not all places offer like artichoke hearts and fresh basil. My other favorite thing about Blaze is how you can get Pesto drizzle and/or Balsamic Glaze drizzle over your pizza once it comes out of the wood fired oven. I also like how they offer both bottled sodas and fountain drinks as well as 2 flavors of lemonade. When I was there it was original and blood Orange for the 2 flavors. They also offer s'mores cookies for dessert which are awesome. Everyone had their masks and gloves on making our food and was super friendly and helpful. We got our food in reasonable time, found a table to sit the 4 of us at easily and thoroughly enjoyed our lunch! read more

You can't go wrong with this place for a solid and affordable pizza, may it be for students or anyone for that matter. Being able to choose the ingredients you want in your pizza is life-changing, adjusting how much cheese you want, meat, mushroom, etc. For mine, I tripled down on the cheese, and really enjoyed it up ending up ruining my diet. But it do be saying something if I'm willing to cheat on my diet. soooo... read more

Blaze Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Irvine, California

We love Blaze! My husband and I had a date night here because we were too lazy to drive far since we live near UTC. I was feeling pizza so we came to Blaze. Tbh I like it more than pieology because they have the veggies that I like on my pizza. When I go to these unlimited toppings kind of places, I go all out. I recently tried their vegan cheese, which was something I hadn't tried before but got on mine because of dietary restrictions that day. It was actually pretty good on the pizza. We both usually get the Build Your Own and pack it with meats and veggies. We're not the simple pie kind of people. We are the get your money's worth kind of people. :) It's fast, it's delicious, it's affordable since their app has deals you can earn. Definitely my go to place for BYO pizza! read more

Blaze always slaps! My cousins from Oregon were in town. So I had to show them the Blaze. Kids, adults and everyone in between love pizza. But Blaze is special. Can't decide on toppings for the group? How about we all get our own haha Anyway, Blaze pizza and all their locations are Lawton point. They open late too so that's a plus. Shout out to the Thursday evening crew that made 8 pizzas come out fast, perfect and Blazing hot! Keep up the good work guys. read more

Blaze Pizza - Well done pizza! Yummy! - Pizza Near Me - Irvine, California

Regular to blaze pizza, I think I'm addicted at this point. Always hits the spot, wide variety of toppings for your pizzas.

A Blaze pizza is a blaze pizza...They are franchised place. You can expect uniform food, service and price. And sometimes I like that.

I ordered a pizza for my daughter who has food allergies. Bryce did an excellent job making sure that they changed out their gloves and made a fresh pizza dough plate. He was very helpful. Bryce went above and beyond to make me feel that we weren't a burdening him by asking him to make an allergy friendly pizza. Thank you and good job read more

i have ordered from this location many times because i do love blaze pizza but let me tell you this location is by far the worst. I've walked in and gotten it delivered and am given issues everytime. when i walk in, immediately am made to feel like IM INTERRUPTING SOMETHING and like they're too busy to help me right away, or if i ask for a side of ranch they let out a big sigh and give it to me, learn some better service manners. Now when i order online, it's even worse, at least i know my order will be correct if i go in store. Now i have ordered from them 2 occasions, first i ordered the take two and asked for no garlic on the bread, it almost felt like a joke how much garlic they put on the bread AND the half of pizza- I DIDNT ORDER GARLIC IM ALLERGIC, anyways whatever i report it to doordash and order it again because i really wanted pizza, the way it felt so half assed when the second pizza arrived also felt comical, it's apparently my fault they made it wrong and were upset they had to remake it. Fast forward a few months later to today, i think i'll try it again give them another chance, not only did the container of ranch open up in the box and spill over everything, the half a pizza didn't have sauce OR cheese on it... only spinach and onion drizzled with ranch... do better blaze pizza or get another job if this one is too hard for you read more

blaze pizza is so yummy! we got the build your own with red sauce + mozzarella and added a bunch of toppings (you can choose as many as you want) i also get ranch and pesto on the side. the service was fast and food came out fast. very casual ambiance and overall worth the money. read more

Blaze Pizza - Build Your Own Pizza (11-inch) - Pizza Near Me - Irvine, California

I come here a lot it's a new place nice places to eat so this time I tried out the blaze Pizza I wish I never did. It was so bad and disgusting. It's been sitting here and I'm starving I don't know if I should eat it or trash it when I ordered the pizza I ask the girl to put the garlic sauce half a spoon and she pulls out the full spoon and put it on top of my pizza disgusting. Never again. :( read more

Blaze Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Irvine, California

When I was new to UCI, I could count on Blaze for a familiar, toasty pizza. When I was in the midst of a 26-unit quarter, I could count on Blaze to help me meet my daily minimum calorie quota for sustenance and brain function. And when I had finally saved up enough points for two free pizzas, I could count on Blaze to help me treat a special someone. The swiftness of service, plumpness of pie, and smiles of the staff all serve to elevate this location to something beyond a pizzeria. Corniness aside this place is pretty tight, they always got people out the door during food times. Also I never brought anyone here for a date I ended up buying a pizza for one of my homies read more

One of the base sauces has pesto and garlic. They did not mention that it is spicy (not common in pesto flavored dishes), because it has chili flakes! For one of us, that essentially ruined the pizza. Why put chili in the sauce and not describe it? Without the chili, this would have been a great, tasty pizza. The manager admitted that the sauce had chili but did not offer a refund. read more

The Fam and I come here all the time as the staff is always friendly. They greet my wife by name already, which makes me think she may come more often than me . You gotta go with a build your own high rise pizza; flavors are much better with high rise, and roasted garlic just makes it even better. It's always clean and welcoming. The managers always go the extra step to make your experience better. Really appreciate it guys. Keep up the good work! read more

Best Pizza Ever!!! Not greasy at all Just the right amount of toppings! Definitely recommend read more

David was very helpful and the service was very quick and high quality. I always enjoy my visit and come here often.

Hotspot for UCI students and near by. Very busy place like all blaze and friendly here. They weren't stingy with their toppings. Perfecto!! read more

What is not to love in blaze? All the toppings aare pretty good, biased towards ricotta and roasted garlic. Great service, food is fast. Nice people! read more

This blaze was a good restaurant. The service was good, and they made my order perfect. The pizza was delicious and enjoyable, the restaurant was neat. Really enjoyed the food here! read more

I came here for the meatballs as I had their pizza before and found that to be an absolutely disappointing experience. The meatballs were good, not exceptional but good. Unfortunately the sauce they came in was on the cooler side which made the meatballs lukewarm. Service is good but the food is not impressive enough that I would return or recommend! read more

Like the concept and options this place has, but $16 for a personal pizza is a little over the top. Got my crust extra crispy or burned whatever you want to call it, would of asked to rebake but they had already messed up my order previously. I just wanted to leave and eat my $16 pizza. Did like the keto option but attendant skimped on all the toppings :( read more

It's too expensive for a fast food place. The bread was so flimsy and soft, and they are stingy with the cheese.

Evan was super nice and just made the pizza perfect to order. My favorite location and service. Anthony the manager is always nice and makes sure quality of service and food is to standard. read more

Blaze Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Irvine, California

DINNER TIME ...... Visited this Blaze at University Center next to UCI with my daughter. Blaze IN GENERAL can be very busy. This IS the nature of the beast for Blaze, especially near a university. TODAY, there were only 5 ppl ahead of us, that's good. Fully staffed with 7 workers today (considering I've seen only 4-5 working on very busy days). They were all smiling and happy, like they enjoyed their job. Greeted with: Hi, Is this your first time or have you been here before? (1st time: Welcome to Blaze, Repeat cust: Welcome BACK to Blaze.) Did the Build-Your-Own which is NOW $8.65 (was $8.25). Still one of the best values in town. Started with the dough (original), then asked for the spicy pizza sauce, mozzarella, gorgonzola, sausage, turkey meatballs, roasted garlic (OH Yummmmy!), spinach, bell peppers, and mushrooms. That is MY pizza ....... How will you build YOUR'S? Don't know, then you gotta try it out. read more

Blaze is one of those classics you really can't go wrong with. I love anything that's customizable, so go figure haha. I've honestly had some hit or miss with the staff here, but overall, their pizzas are so good, and I love how I can just put whatever I want on them. My pizza is always on the verge of overflowing, and I think that's kind of beautiful. They also have a great amount of options to fit dietary restrictions or allergies. I love their vegan chorizo!! I've been ordering Blaze a good amount lately since it's hard to get good food delivered, but Blaze consistently hits the spot! Definitely a safe-at-home staple. read more

Took advantage of the $3.14 pizza deal after work today. The line was super long, not sure if it was just the usual dinner rush or an uptick in customers due to yesterday's deal coming out - either way it took a while to get through the line but it was worth it. I love the concept of Blaze and being able to pick as many toppings as you want for one set price. It's never greasy and always hits the spot! read more

Love Blaze but the staff rude as hell. Got condescended three different times by a staff member after doing absolutely nothing. I'll admit when I'm in the wrong but was doing nothing but silently waiting for my order, simple requests like asking for a side of ranch and a drizzle on half my pizza were treated like the most far out requests and served with major attitude. At this point my next course of action was shitting in my hand and throwing at him. Food still bomb though read more

Update: Blaze has apologized since my review and direct feedback, and gave me credit for the order on my credit card. I can understand that they got really busy on Friday and just messed up the order. Friday, June 12 review Ordered pizza with only veggie toppings today through the Blaze app. Pizza had chicken or some other meat completely baked inside. Terrible that they added meat for a vegetarian pizza. I ate a whole slice and then realized that it had so much meat. I felt sick all over, since I am a vegetarian and also of Hindu faith where I have chosen not to eat meat at all. I could not shake off the bad taste from my mouth for a long time. Also, found that the pie was burnt in some places. When I called the restaurant phone, it went to some lady in their office, and she said she cannot get hold of the manager at the restaurant as their line is busy. So she is not able to help at all. She asked me to contact the restaurant tomorrow. She did not even take down my name or number, and figure out how to help. Her whole attitude was like "I cannot help you at this time, and I I need you to call the restaurant tomorrow at a less busy time." She definitely needs training in customer service. I tried calling the restaurant a few times, but always got a busy tone. Overall, this is a really bad experience with Blaze. I am not ordering online through their app again, much less may not venture to go back to this "busy" Campus location in Irvine. We have had great experiences when we have visited the place in person. This was an online order and am thinking the pizza maker just missed the fact that there's no meat on the order and added a bunch of meat. Original review: If you are craving for healthy, delicious, made-to-order, fresh Vegetarian pizza, Blaze is the place in UCI area. Did I mention Fast-Fired too? Love the many combinations of sauces (my favorite is regular + spicy), the variety of cheeses, and of course, the yummy toppings! The thin crust is made just right... must be the way Blaze fires up the pizza in that hot oven; the crust is not too crispy, not too soft. Better have this pizza pie quick since it softens up when cold. Waiting for them to make fast-fired chocolate cookies as well... perhaps one day soon. read more

Blaze Pizza - Veggie pizza that had chicken or some other meat. - Pizza Near Me - Irvine, California

My review is of Blaze Pizza in general, not just this specific location. Blaze, and other pizza chains like it, are a somewhat new phenomenon of made-to-order "build your own" style pizza. Following the same model as Chipotle, Kava, and Subway, you go through a line where a team member on the other side of the counter leads you down and builds your food item while you select from the available options. It was pretty innovative when this started, but now there seems to be a lot of them from Pieology, to Rev, to Blaze, and I'm sure there's others coming. It fits a specific niche with individual pizzas, where everyone can have their own custom order instead of ordering pizza and having everyone agree on toppings or settling for the common denominator of plain cheese pizza. Or having too much left over for one or two people. The pizza is just good enough in my opinion. It's not as good as other pizza options, and service is hit or miss. It also really needs to be eaten there. If you're looking for delivery or carry out pizza, this type of pizza becomes almost inedible if it's not hot and fresh. It hits the spot sometimes, but that's about the best I can say. If they spent some time improving the recipes - specifically the crust to have a more traditional dough - they may have something. Otherwise, it's transactional. I'm hungry for pizza and this fits the bill. read more

I love Blaze Pizza! This location was a little busy, but I was still serviced quickly. I just love how I can customize my pizza with unlimited toppings for $11. Not bad at all. The staff members were pretty nice as well. Thumbs up! read more

Workers are friendly at this Blaze Pizza. They write your name on the sheet of paper that your pizza or cheesy bread rests on. They take you through the plethora of toppings. I love their traditional red sauce with mozzarella: shredded and fresh. Their toppings are plentiful. I get rosemary sprinkled on top at the end. They also offer finishing sauces that can be drizzled on top of your fresh-out-of-the-fire-oven pizza. I get pesto in a separate container to dip the crust. They call out your name, loudly, so you can hear it, when it's ready. They serve it to you with a smile. You can earn rewards on the app, which I did for this delicious cheesy bread; it was free. Their blood orange lemonade hits the spot every time. (One time, my crust came out really burnt, but I just ate the toppings without the crust that time. No biggie.) Nice location with indoor and outdoor seating at a prime location inside UTC. read more

Blaze Pizza - Cheesy Bread - Pizza Near Me - Irvine, California

Burnt pizza. Blaze Fast-Burnt Pizza. I usually visit a restaurant a few times before I write a review and with good reason - the first time I came here, my pizza was amazing - the right amount of toppings, the right variety, and the thing wasn't burnt. I've since gone back a few times since this summer and this most recent visit - early Saturday morning a little after they opened - my pizza was burnt. It was disgusting and hard to eat. There was already a line forming cuz the guy in front of me was ordering ten pizzas and held everyone else up, so I didn't ask for a remake, but seriously - how do you burn a pizza? That alone seriously killed the experience for me. I had to wait until I got back home to microwave the thing, in an effort to soften up the crust. Another thing they could've done better is handle the line more efficiently. The ten-pizza order dude in front of me had one employee working his pizzas - and no one else to help the rest of the line. Rather than hold up the rest of the line, another employee should step it up and start working on our pizzas. It wasn't until 10 minutes later that someone started working on my pizza. While Blaze has several "creations" - their most popular option is their "Build Your Own". You can pick any toppings, from a large variety - different sauces and drizzles - all for $8.45 For drinks, they have a traditional soda fountain, but also several "agua frescas" options like lemonade, blood orange lemonade, cilantro limeade, among others. Seating space is ample throughout the restaurant, although there are also dining spaces available outside as well. There are occasional offers through their app - you get one flame for every pizza you purchase, and ten flames equals a free pizza - but they also send you free drink coupons here and there. Overall, given my experiences here - it's a hit or miss - one visit you get a perfect pizza, the next visit, your pizza could be burnt. On another note, I had reached out to the management at this location for a potential fundraising event, Brittany from their team reached out to me and never responded after I asked a few questions. Makes me wonder if that has anything to do with employee efficiency and the relative occurrence of the occasionally burnt pizza. There are more quality-consistent choices in the shopping center. read more

9/10 times that I've been here, the line is out of the door. And I just feel like this place us highly understaffed. Definitely can't blame it on the employees because they always seems to try to work as fast as possible. The food is great and the price for it is even better. But I just wish the store has more people working on making the pizzas because since you pay one price for it, people try to get as much stuff on their pizzas as they can, making each making of a pizza super long. I'm definitely not qualified to give any advice on how Blaze run their store but I know that I've turn away from the store after seeing the line many times, and I know others have, too. So one star off for the wait but other things are great! read more

Best service I've gotten at Blaze thus far! Zeke crafted my pizza and salad to perfection and Ethan cooked my crust just how I like it!! They both had smiles on their face and it lightened up my day. 5/5 on customer service read more
