    This location is our go-to. We have been regulars here. We do our regular orders of gluten free vegan cheese pizzas, high rise simple pies, and whatever my husband I feel like for pizza that day. I've been enjoying their vegan chorizo and mushrooms lately. They have gotten better with firing up their pizzas and not over cooking crust and cheese. The drink area has aqua frescas, lemonades, and sodas. On a busy day it can get real messy and sticky. They do a good job cleaning up quickly though. They got rid of their gluten free dairy free crust starting in June but I've learned that they are bringing it back in September. We've been taking a break from Blaze for a month now. Looking forward to going back. Their service has been the reason why we keep coming back. This location is run very well. And we have gotten to know the staff.

    Went in around 8 p.m. on a Thursday, and was warmly greeted by the workers. You could watch the pizza being made and cooked! We did a make your own pizza and breadsticks! Delicious!! This place is excellent! Definitely making Blaze pizza place a regular for my family. Yummy!!

    Today I ate the best calzone ever. Blaze pizza really makes the best calzones in the world! Calzones aren't on the menu. However the owner made a nice exception for me and told me he'd make one if I came into the store. His employees then made me the most scrumptious calzone I've ever had (I'm a calzone connoisseur). The calzone was warm. It was the perfect texture and combination of flavors. It truly embodied the spirit and brand values of Blaze Pizza.

    Came here for a quick lunch with my family. The lunch rush had a long line but it moved pretty quickly! You can choose a base pizza that they have created or start from a scratch with your own. I did the bbq chicken pizza and added bacon and jalapeños. It was yummy!

    Blaze is a clean space and a nice quick order and dine experience. It should be noted that the pizza oven is gas-fired and not wood-fired, so that does have an effect on the taste of a "fast-fired" pizza. I had the "Red Vine" which is Blaze's take on the Neapolitan or Margherita-style pizza. The Ingredients are fresh, which I really enjoyed. The Red Vine had: sauce, fresh mozzarella, cherry tomatoes, and fresh basil. I requested sea salt and dried oregano as compliments. They drizzle fresh olive oil over it after it comes out of the oven. The pizza tasted very nice. The crust had a little crisp to it and a decent chew, but I think the action of a 900° wood-fired oven creates a little better crisp and chew and overall flavor. All in all, no disappointment at all. It's good pizza at a very reasonable price, ready for your table in less than 6-7 minutes after ordering. Give it a shot. I will again.

    Just as it's other location in Des Moines, this place dishes out delicious pizzas like a well-oiled machine! The staff are consistently deft with handling multiple orders and still remaining courteous as they usher the customers quickly through the line. Their fast-fired pizzas are amazingly good for only a five-minute wait. In addition to their excellent staple selection of pizzas, they've added salads, dough knots, and alcohol. Genius! With a few local beers on draft and bottle selections, I couldn't be happier with the experience. Well done, blaze pizza and staff.

    I love Blaze Pizza! This was my first time at this location. I had only been to the MLK location, which is awesome. This one is just as great. I'm so glad there's a location at Valley West Mall, now, too. It's so convenient and it makes eating at the mall so much better. If you've never eaten at Blaze, you'll love the concept. You order your pizza and then walk down the line like Subway and watch your pizza being made. You can order from their many predesigned pizzas or build your own pizza. I always build my own pizza. I love that I can pick whatever toppings I want to be on my pizza. They have a ton of toppings to choose from, even roasted garlic and goat cheese! All the ingredients are fresh and everything is made to order. It doesn't take that long for your pizza to be made because it's made in assembly line fashion with a different person doing each part of the pizza. And then it only takes a few minutes for your pizza to cook. And everyone is so cheerful and friendly as they're asking you what you want on your pizza. You can't beat that. This is my favorite place for pizza. It's fast, but it's not fast food pizza. It's almost gourmet with all the fancy and high quality ingredients you get on your pizza. They also have different finishes you can add to your pizza after it comes out of the oven. I added a balsamic glaze to mine. It was so yummy. And don't get me started on their awesome drinks. They have a fantastic blood orange lemonade that is to die for. They also have Blue Sky sodas that are made with cane sugar that were also delicious. This company also has a commitment to being green. All of their utensils and packaging are recyclable. What's not to love about this place? I will definitely be back many times.

    I really like blaze pizza. That's high compliments from someone who is not a huge pizza lover. It's a fun setup with a Subway setup. You can pick your toppings. I really enjoy the thin crust. I'm not a thick crust kind of girl. Super friendly staff. Enjoyable!

    First time here and will sure be back. Was in town for business was and was recommended to check Blaze out for lunch. The crust is perfect that is not too thin and not too thick! It bakes up to perfection in just a few minuets. You can choose from the few signature pizzas or create your own! From sauce, cheese, fresh toppings! Can't go wrong when you can choose your toppings and watch it being made right in front of you! You also can't beat the price for the quality you get! Great staff! Great atmosphere!

    Yum

    Custom pizza the way you like it. Can't complain. Price is good, you make it how you like it by telling them what to put on it, and it's fast.

    The mall is always fun, but not always fun to eat at! Well that just changed! I got the chance to work with the staff at Blaze for a party last night and they were all over the moon fantastic! After the party, I got a vegan pizza, (with vegan cheese) and the Veg Out option! It was hot, fast, and delicious. You can tell they use fresh ingredients, and I love that they have good beer options to go along with the pie! Not many places can make something this unique, this fast, and with this much good attitude and smiles! I have been to a few Blaze pizza's and that is one thing that sets them a part! The staff is always having a great time, making great food! You can tell they love their jobs and take pride in what they are serving! I love that in a company!

    Peppers make it awesome

    The whole family very excited to come here. While the location by the Iowa Cubs is convenient, having another option on this side of town is the drizzle on my pizza (kind of like the icing on a cake). This Blaze did not disappoint. In fact they actually improved on the other location. They serve BEER. In heaven there is no beer. That's why I drink it here at Blaze. The pizza is delicious as always. The toppings are amazingly diverse and fresh. Spinach really makes it taste good. And the oh so yummy roasted garlic. No one else has that option and that's why we eat that here. Heard they are opening a couple more locations in the metro area. Can't wait to try those too.

    My favorite place for pizza. Love the keto options and the decision to go straw-less should be a trend setter!

    The sandwiches were absolutely incredible--honestly some of the best I've ever had, no question…read more But the wait was beyond frustrating. We were driving through from Colorado back to Minnesota and did everything right: ordered online a full 30 minutes ahead so we could just swing in and pick up. We arrive, my sister (who also ordered ahead online) is already walking out with her food. My brother orders in-person right when we get there, and his sandwich--plus two other walk-in customers' orders--come out before ours even starts being made. We ended up waiting over another 30 minutes. More than an hour total from when we placed the order. What is the point of online ordering if the system doesn't hold your spot in line and just lets in-store orders and later arrivals jump ahead of you? It completely defeats the whole purpose. Still... those sandwiches really were exceptional. Almost worth the headache.

    Pulled up to Capriotti's while heading back to Omaha (from Des Moines) expecting a solid sandwich,…read moreand they definitely delivered -- anything with turkey here is a guaranteed win. Ambience and customer service were just... there. Nothing offensive, nothing memorable. It's giving "get your order and go," which honestly works if the food's this good. If you're in it for the sandwich game, don't let the dry vibe throw you off -- the flavor makes up for the rest.
