    Rude Bryce at the oven

    Rude guy Bryce att the oven, asked for extra crispy, he would not want to put my pizza back in for extra crispy , he said he wasn't going to, so I had to ask the Hispanic guy that was making the pizza, horrible guy with attitude problems, he was on his phone all the time Employee name Bryce at the oven would not take my pizza back in the oven for extra crispy, he refused so I had to get someone else that was working there to put the pizza back in for a few more mins, the Hispanic guy was more than helpful, he had to leave the bar area and stop what he was doing to put my pizza in, we could of had avoided all of this if he just put my pizza back in, AND ON TOP LEFT A TIP FOR ALL THE HARD WORKING EMPLOYEES, please b kind to us customers,

    Surprised to see a Blaze's near the hotel and had lunch before road trip. Redeemed the pi day reward on a build my own regular pizza. Friendly staffs and they moved a bit too fast for me. Like any other Blaze, same layout and offerings. Good pizza!

    After finding out our beloved Red Rossa pizza had closed, we decided Blaze was the "closest" to that kind of pizza that was open. We arrived shortly after 6:00pm on a Sunday. A few tables were full and a couple people were having their pizzas made while a couple others waited to be helped. Although the lime was short, we waited longer than normal to have ours started. The guy behind the counter was very friendly and peppy. He apologized for the wait (mentioned they were short staffed) and was quick at making our three pizzas. He checked with us along the way to make sure they looked pleasing to us. The pizzas cooked up fast and were ready to eat! I had the BBQ Chicken. The flavors were good with the Gorgonzola cheese and bbq sauce melding well. But my crust was hard! It seemed more like a crunchy thin crust pizza than I feel like theirs normally do. The end crust was really hard and I left most of it on the pan. Our kids chose a pineapple/ham pizza and seemed to enjoy that. My husband had the Hot Link and agreed the crust was harder than normal. Now, maybe I was just dreaming of and missing my Red Rossa pizzas but Blaze just didn't hit the spot for me this time. I have had good experiences at other locations though so I won't give up on it.

    Yum!

    Ok, I'm upgrading my review to 5 stars from a 4. The pizza here really is great. The crust taste good and you can pile on your favorite toppings and then some. They have so many options for toppings it's more than any other pizza joint I've been to. For $9 after tax you get an amazing pizza. Custom, fast, fresh, cheap, and very satisfying.

    As chain-pizza restaurants go, Blaze executes surprisingly well; their pies are really tasty and they obviously use top-shelf ingredients. Their concept isn't novel anymore, but it's a still a solid concept - Blaze is the Chipotle of pizza! While you can choose to go with one of their signature pies, they really shine when you choose to Build Your Own Pie (BYOP). So here's the 411 on Blaze's BYOP - everything is personalized; you choose the sauce, the crust, the toppings, and the cheese. Tip: One of the crust choices is gluten-free, and I was particularly impressed with how they handle baking pies for people who are gluten intolerant. My friend has this problem, and when he requested the gluten-free, they asked if it was due to an allergy/restriction or just a preference. When he made it clear it was a dietary restriction they switched their gloves for his pie. They also have a separate sauce that's just for gluten-free pizzas, since they don't want the ladle to cross-contaminate the crust. They even use a separate pizza cutter! The charge an extra few bucks for the gluten-free crust, but the peace of mind is totally worth it :-) Bottom line: Chain pizza that's good enough that you might actually come to crave it! When I'm in a hurry or not ready to pay the freight at a high-end Mom & Pop pizza restaurant, I can easily see myself returning to Blaze.

    Stopped in for a quick bite. Good selection of ingredients and everything looked fresh. Service was pretty fast even though I must have thrown the cashier off by paying with cash, as it took her a while to figure out my change. One other small thing, my pizza was cut weird. It is cut into 6 pieces, but the person cut in half, then half the other way, then one of those pieces in half. So essentially I ended up with 2 1/4 slices and 4 1/8 slices. Ordered the meat lovers and added mushrooms. They put a lot of toppings on for the money and everyone gets what they want.

    Simple and profound

    I was so excited to see that Blaze Pizza opened another location in the Des Moines area. They are making it easier and easier to enjoy the best fast fired pizza in Iowa. This new location lived up to expectations and even exceeded it. The pizza was spot on perfectly cooked. All four of our pizzas were delicious with a perfectly crispy bottom. The s'mores pie was so good warmed up in the oven. What made this visit to Blaze exceed all the others? The new dough knots. Hands down the best garlic pesto bread knots anywhere. The pesto was amazing and made the traditional garlic breadstick item way better. Besides the pizza and fresh toppings, what truly sets Blaze apart from other fast fired chains like Five Pie is the friendly service and store cleanliness. This new location was no different. The entire staff along the way when you are building your pizza was patient and friendly. The cashier was very helpful. And the GM was knowledgeable and made us feel welcomed. Can't wait to come back here again.

I have literally tried every single one in this state (Iowa), nashville, Los Angeles.. and have had many others in other cities. The sauce taste authentic it's full of flavor, but it's not too sweet, spicy or acidic. It's robust and like I said authentic. They put the right amount on. I can't even begin to talk about the crust because I'm gonna start crying. It is so beyond good very authentic. They put an appropriate amount of cheese on the pizza. Sidenote, why do people in Iowa want to put an entire pound of cheese on every slice of a pizza it's wild to me. I have never had a bad pizza from Franco. I ordered at least once a week. If I've ever been in the store, the service is absolutely excellent, the vibe in one selection match that excellence. I wish they would open one closer to downtown!

A nice restaurant with a clean look and a couple of TVs behind the bar playing the Army Navy game. Pics on Google were promising. They were correct. Pizza is wood fired, and you can easily watch the process from most of the restaurant. A nice vibe. Like many places today, they go out of the way to be obscure with their ingredients. I asked about the sausage pizza and which item was the cheese....the server was unsure and offered me the pepperoni pizza with mozzarella replacing pepperoni with sausage. Instead, I added sausage to the pepperoni. I prefer pizza with cheese...covering the whole pizza as opposed to a small section. With the cheese thing out, I will say the crust and ingredients were fantastic. We ordered one half pizza/half salad and a whole small pizza. I didn't picture how they'd do a half pizza with an empty restaurant, but it was just a smaller crust. (Makes sense.) Beer selection was limited, but still good. Service was kind and attentive. This was a pretty good pizza joint with a try.
