I got a chicken wrap from here and it was horrible. The chicken was hard. I couldn't even chew it. Will not go back.

Alright... The BEAST has spoken. Let's break this one down honestly. Yesterday for lunch I grab a…read moreslice of 2 Coming in hot with a 3.5-star rating, this spot almost hits that elite tier--but there are a few things holding it back from greatness. First off, presentation and crust game? Solid. You're getting a good bake, decent structure, and slices that hold their own. Not floppy, not overly stiff right in that respectable middle lane. That's a win. Now let's talk about the sauce... because this is where things get mixed. Taking a look at some of the chatter on Yelp, there's a noticeable trend and I've got to agree. The sauce is inconsistent. Some bites hit with a nice tang and balance, but others feel either a little too sweet or lacking depth. It doesn't always punch through the cheese like you want it to. For a place trying to compete in the pizza game, sauce consistency is everything--and right now, it's just not elite. Cheese and toppings are good--not mind-blowing, but definitely respectable. No complaints there. Quality is there, just not standout.

I was in Clifton Park to get my gums scraped and I stopped at this little pizza shop for a bite of…read morelunch. Is it a good idea to eat pizza right after a dental cleaning? Probably not, but I was hungry. *shrug* I got a slice of cheese, a slice of BBQ chicken and a bottled water for just under six bucks. Great deal! They're nice, big, classic NY slices. The flavor seemed a bit mild to me, but that could've been the fluoride treatment affecting my taste buds. Regardless, the pies looked and tasted good. Clean oven = no soot on the bottom, unlike some lazy places. Chatted with the owner for a bit and he seemed like a nice guy. The shop only has a few small tables, so it's probably more of a takeout / delivery place unless you're just looking for a quick snack. Definitely recommend giving Pizza Palace a try!

Still this is my favorite pizza place in the area... it really is. I know up here they like crispy…read morepizza crust and that drives me up the wall because I prefer to fold it and not have to worry about broken crust caught between my teeth, etc.... so this one was really that good to make me look past that. But it's the quality assurance of this place.... half the time you order on a Saturday and their system accepts the order, the DoorDash driver comes by and "whoops!" they're closed. Then you ask when they open and they'll say 10am... and someone says "we had a family emergency"... and while I get that, how about you turn off the ordering system to accept the orders so I'm not out the money and the driver doesn't waste time driving to pick up the food? Then sometimes you'll get a great saucy pizza (which I love).... but other times, someone just decides to be lazy and take a pizza they've had sitting around under the counter for slices and just use that. So you paid $15+ for a pizza to be cooked fresh and you get a pizza that's dry and tastes like someone reheated the whole pizza. That was the last straw for me because they do it so many times... both of those things. Great pizza sauce, great pizza, but OMG, I can tell why I never see anyone inside your pizza place whenever I go... And they haven't changed... they used to sometimes just burn the crap out of the pizza too... you'd get a pizza that crumbles in your hand under it, or sometimes you'll get a crust with a huge bubble in the middle because they just didn't care. And that's why I stopped ordering from them... just laziness and no one is really around to make sure they don't do these things...... shame, really.

The BEAST doubled back to Blaze Pizza... and this one holds up…read more Consistent, quick, and still delivers. The subway of pizza spots if you will. 5th or 6th time through and it's the same story in a good way. The build-your-own setup keeps things easy, and the fast-fired oven still gives that solid char you want. For a non-traditional spot, it hits above its weight. The ingredients tasted fresh again, and having full control over toppings makes it hard to walk away disappointed. Service stayed quick and efficient, no slowdown, no issues. It's not trying to be a classic pizzeria, and it doesn't need to be. It knows its lane and executes it well. BEAST Breakdown: * Consistency: Same quality as the first visit * Crust/Fire: Good char, quick cook * Ingredients: Fresh, customizable * Service: Fast and reliable Final Verdict: 4.0 / 5 - "Back-to-back solid visits." Not a fluke this place is dependable. The BEAST says if you want fast, customizable pizza that actually tastes good, this is a repeat stop.

I just had a terribly concerning experience at Blaze. Closing time is listed as 9:45pm…read more My husband got there before 8 o'clock, and saw three people standing outside the door, and the doors were already locked. A customer let them in and the group ahead of my husband was served, and my husband was told after waiting in line that they were closed and was sent out. That is how we treat customers before closing time? We let them stand in the line and wait for others to be served before telling them they are not serve served? And it's hard to ignore, it was the black customer that was not served after waiting in line.
