I love everything about this place!! The gluten free cauliflower pizza crust is amazing! They have a customer for life!!

I'll start by stating that the pizza is tasty and very thin just like my daughter and I like it. The first time I visited BurnBox, I was in a rush and just needed something to eat and I didn't want anything from the nearby fast food places. I purchased a pizza for around $15 which I thought was pricey for the size of the pizza, but when I learned of their mission, I didn't care about the price...I love the mission! I went back tonight for a second time wanting a pepperoni pizza. I was told that I had to order a "build-your-own" pizza just to get a pepperoni pizza. I was puzzled! Why?! Well, it cost $14.49 to build your own pizza. All of the other specialty pizzas that come with MULTIPLE toppings cost $12.49. That math was NOT mathing. I asked if I could just order the "Meat Me Up" with no sausage and no bacon and she informed me that she could not do that. So, to make sure that I understood what she was telling me, I asked, "So, you are saying that I have to pay $2 extra to get less toppings?!" She didn't have an answer and went to ask the manager. She returned to the front stating that the manager said that they do not sell one-topping pizzas and I would have to get a "build-your-own" pizza if I just wanted pepperoni. That is not logical. So, I initially walked out. I asked my daughter if she could just eat somewhere else, but she really wanted the pizza. I told her that there was no way that I was going to pay extra to get less, so she compromised and only got cheese with NO pepperoni. I gave three stars because the young lady was nice, the pizza was good and you all have a good cause. I deducted the two stars because the pricing makes no sense and the pricing makes NO sense! I am hoping that the manager was misinformed and this is corrected because I really want to support this business. read more

I've heard so much about BurnBox but had never been. There was a lot of chatter on Nextdoor about the service being rude, etc. So we decided to check it out ourselves. We walk in the first young lady greets us and simply says "Can I help you?" I told her I've never been here and she politely explained the whole process of building my own pizza. She did the same for my wife and daughter. Not once was anyone rude or unprofessional. They told us it'd be 15-20 mins to complete so we chilled and waited. They have vegan cheese and vegan pepperoni which is awesome but were out of the seafood and didn't have any parmigiana cheese. Our pizzas were simply delicious! Fresh ingredients, crispy crust, excellent additions like oregano, garlic, pepper flakes,etc. I highly recommend this establishment over Dominoes, Pappa John's, or any other big name spot. This is really great pizza! read more

My nephew got me to change my mind somewhat as the only time I ordered burn box I was disappointed with the service and the food. When he said this evening that was what he wanted I started to dissuade him but decided not to. I tried one slice of his build your own pizza and while something was too salty, the pizza was still better than I remembered. I am disappointed again with Grubhub as their delivery people places your order on the ground and don't ring your doorbell to let you know they've arrived; also you don't get to review Grubhub. read more

This was such a pleasant surprise. I was in area and decided to pop in and give this spot a try. The staff was very professional,friendly, and attentive. They made suggestions on what to possibly try since this was my 1st time as a customer. Clean establishment as well. I will definitely be back!!! read more

BurnBox Pizza - Pizza Box - Pizza Near Me - Kettering, Maryland

No customers. Helped immediately friendly young lady. Clean and plenty of space to sit. It's a build your own. First time here. Two pepperoni pizzas small size so we got two. The lady added the ingredients right in front of us. Pretty cool. We waited about 20 Mins. Not bad. Got buffalo wings. The wings are a NO unfortunately. Saw another lady take them out from a box to warm them up or something. I thought they would be freshly done. The taste is kinda off. Pizza was not bad. If I had to I would go again. Service was friendly. Parking easy. read more

The pizza was ok... The customer service was not! As I was sitting there waiting for the pizzas to be prepared, it seems like it just wasn't a priority. They left my pizza sitting on the table, while trying to call themselves multi tasking.... When I arrived, no one was there, but as soon as another person entered, that's when the pep in the step began! Not ok! Really disheartening... I really wanted to return but I'm big on customer service! And it just didn't meet my expectations! read more

Overall: simple menu of 11" pizzas. You can "build your own" or choose from several pre-determined ones. The good points: I like their mission of providing pizzas to those in need. The pizza was pretty good. The downside: the service was so slow. Every employee was moving at a snail's pace. We were in there for just short of an hour waiting for our 3 pizzas. There were problems with the orders - burned pizzas that were started over and moved to the end of the cooking line, pizzas that were done cooking but we weren't called to the pickup line, and incorrect pizza toppings. I asked for paper plates for our carry out order...no plates. I just don't understand how so many things could go wrong with such a seemingly simple operation. read more

They get two stars because the young women working there were LOVELY --Super polite. We talked for a long time. The other star is because I'm feeling generous. Listen. Management needs to get it together. No fresh Basil. How are you a pizza place and you run out of one of the main ingredients???? A margherita pizza literally requires fresh basil. The cheese was low quality. Crust was tasteless. Sauce was average. I really wanted to like this place. I just didn't. I will go back to patronize the young women working there but it will NOT be in my regular rotation. Ever. read more

First-timer after passing this place for years. It definitely isn't a bad pizza. I will try it again.

Surprisingly un kid-friendly flavor profile. Came up this way to go to the nearby park and were really disappointed. The house sauce, while mildly spicy, is much spicier than I'd expect most kids to enjoy. We had to scramble to find other food for your 5yo who was not into the house red sauce w/ cheese at all. Perhaps someone messed up and out the spicy sauce on there? Staff were also ambivalent to the lack of toilet paper in the bathroom... read more

Loved the pizza and how you can customize your order. The dough options are great and love the concept that they give a pizza away, for pizza they sell read more

I placed an order online and it was ready when I arrived. I was pleasantly greeted by the staff who kindly directed me to the cashier to pick up my delivery. This was my first visit to BurnBox as I've been looking for a good place to buy pizza in the area. I think I found it. Only thing I would change is not having the basil on top. read more

First of all, support BurnBox. Not just because the establishment is Black owned. Support them because the food is damn good!!! The customer service was impeccable. You walk in & immediately feel the warm spirit of friendliness. Even behind masks you can tell the staff are smiling. But back to the pizza. The Crab Catcher was off the chains!! This is coming from a guy who is allergic to shellfish. It was my wife's pizza and I snagged a slice. Listen!!! It was so good. I almost took a Benadryl to eat more of her pizza than mine. I had the Lucky BBQ and it was also very good. The portions are perfect for a meal. We were both full afterwards. I live not too far away and best believe I'm happy to have BurnBox in the neighborhood. read more

I have been her on 2 occasions and have enjoyed the food and service. The staff were very friendly and attentive. They were helpful as well. The restaurant was very clean and streamlined in flow. I ordered the crab catcher which had a unique taste but still very tasty. It was not a pizza that I would have regularly but something that you should try for something new. The second time I did a custom pizza with shrimp that I would definitely get again. Their pizzas are filling but don't make you feel heavy. It is satisfying and I would recommend their pizza. Oh yeah I need to sign up for the free pizza. :-) read more

I ordered the Lucky BBQ and it was really tasty. I loved the mix of flavors. I also like the crust of the pizzas, the crust has a nice chew to it. The Crab Catcher was a bit too salty and I wanted some freshness to the flavor like lime or some fresh veggies on top. It had some type of overwhelming flavor that I could quite put my hand on. read more

I had a pleasant young lady prepare my pizza today. Her delightful disposition and the tasty pizza makes for a 5 Start review!

I ventured over to the new pizza place in PG County. To my dismay they did not have The Crab Catcher so I was recommended to order a Build Your Own.., instead of a Plant Lover with crab added. The pizza was bland and just lacked the basic qualities of a good pizza. There are so many options in the DMV area that one must perfect their craft when entering an arena such as this. read more

Have been aware this was coming for some time now and was excited to try. I had the BurnBox pizza and it was good. I would have maybe wanted it cooked slightly longer to develop more char on the crust and have it set a little more but will definitely give it another try. Looked like they were set up to serve draft beer in the future which is a plus. Nothing like a beer with a pizza. read more

Pizza was pretty good. I would definitely try them again. Good pizza option& better than the franchised fast food pizza places nearby. read more

BurnBox Pizza - Build your own pizza w/Pepperoni & Bacon - Pizza Near Me - Kettering, Maryland

Best Vegan Pizza! I am mostly plant-based with some exceptions of sauces and such (I.e ranch on pizza). I am also a huge pizza fan, and while I love creating my vegan pizzas at home, I am all for convenience too. This has been the best vegan pizza I had in a while! The taste is phenomenal! The topping options are plentiful! The best part...... the cheese melts and actually taste good! Vegan cheese that can do both is rare. The staff was friendly and I loved that they are a BLACK OWNED BUSINESS! If you are plant based or looking for a quick and good pizza place, I would definitely recommend this place. read more

BurnBox came excitedly recommended. In my opinion the is okay but there are other better options. I do appreciate the variety of toppings to choose from but I found myself back to Mod and Pizza Hut Pan Pizza. read more

Food was ok service was great! Very polite and patient for a first time customer. That was enough to make me give it another try

Love the pizzas here, but they have to consider making the dough ahead of time to handle the volume of customers. The pizza making process sacrifices speed, when they can have speed and quality by just making the dough ahead of time. But again, pizzas are DELICIOUS!!! read more

Superb experience!!! I ordered the Crab Catcher as well as a frozé and wasn't able to making out the parking lot without eating half of my pizza. The wonderful staff also informed me that for every pizza ordered the company donates a pizza to feed the homeless. I will definitely be back to support this locally owned black business that supports its community! Been dreaming of this pizza ever since! read more

BurnBox Pizza - Yum - Pizza Near Me - Kettering, Maryland

We were staying in the area at a hotel and ordered online for delivery. The pizzas were delicious but the delivery driver wasn't a store employee - it was an UBER driver. I asked where our drinks were that we paid for. He said it wasn't part of the order. I pointed to the receipt that clearly showed we ordered drinks and he said "they are not part of the order. call the store." I called the store and the employee said he has to tell his manager. I said, "is my card going to be refunded?" He said, "in 3-5 days." I hope I am refunded. Disappointed. read more

I recently had a discrepancy with a pizza order due to a misunderstanding with DoorDash ..this left me not only hungry, but highly annoyed. However, one of the owners personally reached out to not just me, but also DoorDash to get the discrepancy taken care of. Initially I was ready to throw in the towel but Ryan truly went over and beyond to make sure I was taken care of. So instead of me receiving the 2 pizzas I originally ordered, I received 4 along with a credit. It's truly refreshing to see a black business owner that takes pride in his brand and also customer service..thank you Ryan! read more

Absolutely love the pizza. It is always worth the wait! I'm satisfied every time I go here.

OMG!!! I ordered the Italian stallion salad minus the artichokes from a coupon and all I can say is that thing was FIRE !! Absolutely delicious! . Staff were very accommodating and pleasant. It was a great experience all around! Will definitely be back! read more

I tried to like this place. It's not even the food either, it's the employees. Literally took a half hour to get a pizza I ordered on the app prior to my arrival. Slow motion is the theme of this spot. I watched as it took over 25 minutes for the two ladies making the pizzas, to finish the three people who were already in the line placing their order when I walked in. *sigh*. Also, I attempted to use the check in offer from Yelp. I followed all requirements to redeem. However, the employees were highly confused and unable to figure out how to redeem the offer. I showed them the offer and explained it to 2 different employees. End of story was that I wasn't credited for the plain Jane I purchased on the app. I didn't receive a reward in the app for the plain Jane and I didn't receive the free offer. Really gotta do better. read more

Ugh where do I begin?! This place has the SLOWEST SERVICE EVER. Like my family and I make jokes about how they're like the sloths at the DMV on Zootopia. The food is alright not terrible but definitely not the best pizza I've ever had. The bigger issue is how dumb their system is. They make walk ins sit and wait for them to finish all the tickets that are ahead of them (online orders) and then they call you when its ur tickets turn instead of making them simultaneously like every other business. Like as if you're not already going to be waiting an hour and a half for them to place one pepperoni slice on ur pizza. This place is ridiculous. read more

ORDER ONLINE/THROUGH THE APP AT YOUR OWN RISK! If your order arrives missing food the store manager will take zero responsibility. She will tell you to call UberEats. I spent 45 minutes on the phone being transferred 4 times (because no one had teh order in their system), just to find out the order was delivered by Uber, not UberEats! And they couldn't issue a refund because the order was placed through the store app and they didn't have my payment information. BurnBox just lost a customer over a $3.49 root beer. Also keep in mind if you call the store to let them know your order was incomplete and an employee tells you they will have a manager call you back in 5 minutes, this is a lie. They will not call you back. Poor customer service. A lack of accountability. They are always out of regular salad. The only good thing about this location is the actual pizza. But not worth the hassle. Go to the grocery store and buy Freschetta's Gluten Free pizza. Bake it. Deliver it to yourself. You'll save time and money. ​​ read more

BurnBox Kettering needs to step it up. Today I went in to pick up an order that my husband had placed online. The girl at the counter mumbled at me when I told her the name on the order. She handed me the stack of 4 pizzas. I glanced at the receipt, but it was so greasy I couldn't read it. When I got home, my husband asked where was the salad? I called the restaurant & asked them to credit us the $10.47 back to our credit card for the salad we never got. The young lady passed the phone to her supervisor who told me to pull up the app to refund the money. Huh?? We tried & how are we able to send a refund back to ourselves? Plus this is a second time that no pesto was put on my husband's pizza. And the crust on our guest's pizza was burnt black. read more

BurnBox Pizza - Greasy Receipt - Pizza Near Me - Kettering, Maryland

I heard about this black owned pizzeria thru a neighborhood app called Nextdoor and I had to see what all the hype was about. They have an app which is a definite plus. I placed my order through the app at 7:22pm so I got there about 8pm. They greeted everyone as soon as they walked in which was very welcoming and made me smile (under my mask of course ). The line was pretty long and I didn't know exactly if it was separated for those who need to place orders and those who are waiting on already placed orders. I asked one of the super friendly staff members and was greeted by a manager who informed me that they are running behind as they are extremely busy. I ended up waiting for a total of about 40 minutes inside the restaurant for my order. So I would say the ONLY downfall was the wait time. Because when I got back home and tasted my Lucky BBQ pizza , it was phenomenal. It was bursting with flavor, the ingredients were very fresh and the crust was baked to perfection. I just moved here from Chicago, where great pizza matters.... and BurnBox definitely qualifies as great pizza in me and my family's book... It was most definitely worth the wait!! read more

Super delicious!!! Staff is friendly professional awesome folks!!! Clean space and quick ordering!!!

I had the pleasure of trying this place for their grand opening event and by the first bite I can officially give it a 10/10! I got the Meat Me Up pizza with Mike's Hot Honey, parsley and Parmesan and it was great! The location is clean and very upbeat! All of the new employees are very nice and I love the vibe! read more

The food itself and the speed it arrived during the delivery deserves a five... the food tasted absolutely delicious!!what ruined it was the person who was smoking weed, the pizza boxes and bag of food smelled atrocious and stunk of weed!!
