    Craved pizza after a night exploring different places in Pasadena. Blaze was open late. Ordered a build-your-own with classic red sauce, mozzarella, pepperoni, green peppers, banana peppers, olives, mushrooms, roasted broccoli. The staff was very efficient and I liked that they kept the pizza in the wood fire grill a bit longer to make the crust crispy. With a little red chili pepper and Parmesan cheese on top, it was the perfect snack to share with my husband. Mmm, thank you.

    Blaze Pizza sits on the NE corner of E. Colorado Blvd. & E. Molino Ave. in Pasadena.

    First visit to any Blaze Pizza location. We stopped in after a show at the Pasadena Playhouse, as this is one of only a few places open late in the theater district. It's a short walk from the Playhouse, located on the NE corner of E. Colorado Blvd. & E. Molino Ave. Plenty of indoor seating available, and parking is on the street or in a nearby pay lot (walkable distance). Ordering is cafeteria style: select your pizza and then walk along to add toppings, finally paying at the register. When your order is ready, they call out your name/ticket number and you go back up to the counter to pick up your food. No table service. My wife and I shared a Carnivore Pizza ($13.99) and a Cinnamon Bread ($4.99) for dessert. Overall, the dining area could have used more attention to cleaning after customers left their tables, but the food was tasty, and the service was okay. I'd try them again, for sure.

    Came for pi day and what a busy day this was. There was a line out the door. I will know this for next year. It was probably the busiest it ever was and will ever be. So many eager people wanting their pi day pie. Their pi day deals vary each year but this year was bogo for $3.14. Not a bad deal but definitely enough for it to draw the crowds. I think food usually tastes better if you are getting a deal. Therefore the pizzas were delicious! We got the spicy pepperoni and the carnivore. I was not ready for the sweet sauce on the carnivore. I would definitely ask for no sauce next time. On a side note, the side door allows for entry by unwanted guests. A homeless guy entered and sat in a booth area and was occupying space that a paying customer could have been sitting at. That was a little unsettling. There should be some security to prevent vagrants from entering without a purpose.

    This blaze location is conveniently located on Colorado and is one of the few fast-casual places that don't require a sit-down experience. They also have outdoor seating which is nice. The one drawback is the service here is incredibly slow. It's not that it isn't sufficiently staffed either, they just don't prioritize speed at all. They do participate in pi day deals annually which is nice. If they trained or prioritized urgency here at all this would be an easy 5/5. You can see the other reviews for similar complaints.

    You know when you walk into a place and just know they hired the right people? Like, the manager is great, the employees fit perfectly, and everything just runs the way it should? Yeah--this place nailed it. They have the best manager I've ever dealt with at any location. And no.. I didn't ask to speak to the manager haha--he just happened to be behind the counter when I was checking out one day. We ended up having a conversation about how I mistakenly ordered a large on a previous visit, and he was super kind and sweet. He let me know that the large I ordered wouldn't taste the same as the build-your-own regular and gave me some helpful tips for next time. Then, out of nowhere, he gave me a complimentary drink--just to make sure I had a good experience. What a sweetheart. Honestly, every single time I come here, the employees are incredibly friendly, and I always leave with a great interaction. This place is so worth the drive--I go 10 miles out of my way and deal with the crappy parking just to get my Blaze Pizza from this specific location. I've never vouched this hard for a Blaze Pizza before, but trust me, if you want your pizza made right, come here. Other locations may follow the same system, but it just doesn't hit the same way it does here. Also, this location is huge and very spacious and you can sit down if you really want to eat here, but I always take mine to go.. because who doesn't want to eat their pizza while cuddled up in bed binge watching 30 episodes? No? Just me? Okay.

    Blaze's Cajun-style pizza. Nice, but not what I ordered.

    I remember when Blaze Pizza first opened in Pasadena. We simply couldn't get enough. Pies were $7 (more or less) and the service was stellar. That was 14 years ago and the prices are higher, the customer service was lousy, and again, the pizza bottom was burned.

    Made a mobile curbside order I called more then 20 times and waited half an hour for my order I ordered curbside since I was with my children and couldn't get down I eventually had to run out the car to grab my order and which an employee then said why I didn't just get down from my car. I ordered curbside and not pickup for a reason ?! Very unprofessional that I couldn't get through in phone call they would immediately just hang up as soon as it started ringing. This happened on September 18 2025 at 2:55 my order was supposed to be ready and out since 2:27. The lady had a tattoo on her arm and also it was completely empty unacceptable why have a phone if no one answers and also it none of the employees business why I ordered curbside that was completely rude im always ordering here and I've never had anyone so rude

    This is not a classic Italian pizza, but the quality of the ingredients is good and consistent. We usually get the Build Your Own Pizza and have been happy with it!

    My wife was overcome with a serious pizza craving for lunch. She usually insists on gf, vegan, vegan cheese, thin crust pizza. Today she said "f@&% it!" . "I want a regular pizza!!!" So we opted for her favorite Blaze Pizza which was delicious. I have to say the olive oil drizzle was better than delicious because I love olive oil, especially with the slightly crispy crust! Oh yum! We want to order another right now!!

    Promotion shows, pick anything. And does not limit to 5 toppings.

I forgot to order a drink. The young lady behind the counter said she got me covered. I got a bottled orange drink on the house. Thank you! Wow, now that's generous hospitality. I got 3 chicken wings that came with one toast and some pickles plus the shake fries. Wings were lightly fried with perfect crispness. Mild spice was still spicy, but manageable good spice. Bread was good, but it would have been nice if it was lightly toasted. Pickles were delightful. It was indeed one tasty lunch. Howlin' Ray's, you're the best!

If you love fried chicken, you cannot go wrong eating here. The service i have mixed opinions. Most all of the employees are friendly. Maybe too friendly. Part of the reason for their long line would be the talkative cashiers. There is a way to chat up the customer while still keeping things moving along, but I've not seen it once while there; the chicken is that good that I put up with my least favorite thing at a restaurant--unnecessary conversation that adds to the wait time. The ambiance is also not my favorite. It's too loud in there. The music could be a touch lower--I'm there to eat, not be at the club--and the top notch cooks in the back yell a lot. I will say that the yelling appears to keep them upbeat, positive, and motivated; I see the value in it, yet it's the reason I get delicious chicken to go. They have a clean bathroom, a parking lot in back, and some of the best chicken in the Greater Los Angeles area. My mouth waters when I even begin to think about going there. Also, I believe the times to avoid the long waits would be weekdays until about 3 PM ish.

Tonight we decided to switch things up a little, and hubby ordered the bacon cheeseburger. Normally we prefer the quarter-pound patty, but this one was slightly thicker, which definitely made us feel full a lot quicker.

I stuck with my usual chicken breast salad, and it was delicious as always. Fresh, satisfying, and dependable -- although I'll admit I'm still not a fan of bell peppers, so those got politely pushed to the side. One thing I have noticed over time is that the fries seem to be getting a little smaller in portion each visit. I also miss the thicker-cut fries from about six months ago -- those were my favorite. The current ones still do the job, but the old style definitely had my heart. Overall, this is still a definite must-try spot if you're craving a good burger.

This is a burger joint with a diverse menu, including one of the biggest breakfast burritos in town. I got my burrito with bacon. The burrito comes with hashbrown style potatoes, eggs and cheese - you get a choice of ham, bacon or sausage for your meat (or have it without meat). The bacon was crispy and remained crispy when I reheated my other half. Not only is the bacon crispy, the burrito has a generous amount of it! Oh and the other plus - the tortilla does not come wet and soggy and remains in perfect condition if you have leftovers. The burrito comes with only one salsa and to be honest, you really do need two for such a big burrito. I'm a green salsa girl but I asked what I should go with and I was recommended the red one (the green one is supposedly spicier). The red salsa did not disappoint other than I needed one more for my whole burrito (there's no kick to this salsa but it's tasty). The burrito itself isn't bursting with flavor on its own and it requires the salsa to compliment the other ingredients. But, who eats a breakfast burrito without salsa? There is ample parking in their parking lot and there's seating both inside and outside. I will definitely be returning to satisfy my breakfast burrito craving very soon and if this is what you're looking for - stop reading reviews and go get you one at Lucky Boy (it's served all day).
