Blaze Fast-Fire’d Pizza

Love the setting! Not the old school Italian pie shop! More edgy and architecture. Regardless of age, region, or out of the box idea, there is something for you! Even gluten free!
You walk in. Everything is posted as you look up! Looking down is where the magic happens. Pressing the dough, explaining the sauces, the various cheeses, the assorted meat and veggies. Plus there is a s’mores gluten free cookie, ask them to toast it up! Not wanting pizza? They make really delicious salads. Assorted drinks such as blood orange lemonade! Plus there is an assortment of wines and beers.
Have a smart phone? Order online with delayed pick up. No smart phone? They can whip a pizza out in less than 10 minutes from start to end.
Indoor/​outdoor seating. Close to all the UTC shopping complexes and UTC mall, up the street from Nathan Bender Park (famous for the regattas and Ringling Circuses).
Refillable drinks, earth friendly carry out boxes, and a warm and fuzzy atmosphere!
Blaze is the BEST brick oven pizza around!

Great pizza made to order.
The staff are friendly, and the atmosphere is pleasant. We will definitely go there again and again.

This is probably the best value for the money out there right now. We’ve been there several times and they are extremely consistent. They get you in quickly and your pizza is hot and fresh. Great if you have children because they can get their own separate pizza and everybody’s happy.

We went for lunch and it was really good. I like picking the ingredients that go on my pizza. They have many items to add and it is one charge no matter what or how much you add. There were a lot of employees to make your pizza so the line moves rapidly. It is like a Subway for pizza. They do a thin crust pizza so mine was ready in four or five minutes. They also offer salads for a side or for an entire. This is a great place for lunch because you can get in and out quickly. I think this is a winner concept.

Amazing pizza and exceptional service! All around fantastic experience. My wife and I already want to go back!

One of, if not my favorite pizzas in town. I love the concept of being able to make your own pizza. Really fresh ingredients too. And all for a good price.

Fun concept. Interesting choices for toppings. Not a huge fan of build your own pizza. Pizza sauce was tasty. Seems like a fun place to take your kids. Customer service could be friendly/​better.

Great pizza, much better than Rise Pies in the mall. Gluten Free crust is one of the best around and I love that they have chicken and turkey meatballs as toppings. Overall this is one of our favorite places to go for something quick and tasty. Love the blood orange lemonade as well.

Awesome restaurant with a unique concept. It’s like a Subway or Moes but with Pizza. If I had the money I’d buy into the restaurant because they would make a killing where I live since they would have no competition. During my visit they were packed with a line of people yet because of there unique fast cooking of pizza I didn’t have to wait long.

The «Green Stripe» is amazing and I have always eaten the same since I started going there

I love this place. Went there with my girlfriend for the first time. It was on point. Not expensive and great food. Definitely returning

I have just eaten at Blaze for the first time. There is so much RIGHT with this place, I don’t know where to begin. I wanted to speak to the manager and thank him for running a PERFECT business, but guess what? He was behind the counter working and was cooking. A very in the trenches with the troops kind of guy, and I was extremely impressed.
For starters, every single person I dealt with had something lacking in the service industry today. They were all polite, kind, helpful, generous… I mean I was shocked. They were all youths and the were all awesome. Keep up the good work there. I waited to get an attitude from any one of them… sort of expecting it to happen. It didn’t. From the first young lady who could see we were newcomers to the young man asking us what toppings we wanted. Everyone was kind. If the food were terrible, we would come back for their attitudes. A young lady came over to us while we ate salad and kindly asked if she could pick up our pizza and bring it to us. EVERY business should go study this model. This is the future. You have my business forever.
As far as the food, it was phenomenal. So fresh, so clean, so tasty. Generous but not ridiculous portions. So many choices to choose from. Nothing seemed rushed or haphazard.
I commend you on your accomplishment. This is EASILY my favorite restaurant now, and the best pizza I’ve ever eaten!

I’m from the north. I consider myself a «pizza snob» like everyone else. This place has fresh ingredients, amazing customer service and a fast turn around time. Drooling just thinking about it. Heck, I might go right now.

I and my girlfriend eat here at least twice a week, my girlfriend has celiac and Blaze offers a gluten free pizza, and has a great Vegan cheese.
The staff here are very friendly and go out of those way to accommodate your needs. They remember that my girlfriend is gluten free when we come in which given the number of people they serve a day is amazing.
Great quick pizza, great staff, this is a winner in my book

This place was a very pleasant surprise, and one to which I would definitely return! I had low expectations when my husband said the pizzas would be ready in less than a minute, but let me tell you, Bricks has developed a genius way of turning pizza into fast food. Not only was it ready quickly, but it was delicious.
I appreciated that I could customize the pizza with any ingredients I liked, without an upcharge. Where else can you find that? Plus, Bricks offered a selection of beers too, which was very welcome. And, no less than three employees checked in to make sure we were enjoying our meal and had what we needed. Overall, I would highly recommend!

Love this place! The price is great and so is the pizza. I pretty much order a different combination every time I go. The staff is always super friendly, accurate and fast. The pizza is thin crust and very tasty. They also have an alternative crust and cheese option, which is pretty rare and awesome for my gf.
Just be careful to make sure that they don’t add too much salt at the end if you ask.

Nice, friendly staff from the moment you walk in. It’s very fun making your own pizza. For $ 7.95 you can pick all of the toppings that you want… unlimited! That’s a great value and deal!
It only took about five minutes to put it in the oven and bring it back out.
My pizza creation tastes wonderful.

All pizzas are personal size 11″ and anyway you want it for $ 7.95. Nice cheese selection with the traditional pizza toppings. Red or white sauce available. Pizza is cooked in a conveyor style burner for 180 seconds. You can request the pizza crispy. We did and it was delicious.
Best part you can customize the whole or your half anyway you want for no extra charge. There is a small selection of beers and one type of Merlot and Chardonnay. The dining area is warehouse style and very loud. Outdoor dining is available with some limited shaded areas.

A totally customizable experience. I got the «Green Stripe» without cheese (by necessity) and added calamata olives. So tasty, and I loved the toasty, oven-​fired crust. Also had the beet and goat cheese salad (Don’t knock it till you’ve tried it!) and the blood orange lemonade. Yum!
One thing to keep in mind is that you can completely customize your pizza, including the amount of a certain topping, if you’d like more or less.
Prices aren’t bad either. 40 bucks for a family of four. Will definitely be back!

Good pizza place for a quick bite and very nice customer service, wish they had the Coke Freestyle Machines but I do love the Blood Orange Lemonade they provide.
As it stands I think it’s a better option than Rise Pies in the mall due to being larger restaurant and having a better customer service the only draw backs I see are they don’t have the Freestyle machines and the dough could be a little thicker. As a price standpoint it is similar to Rise Pies which is unfortunate.
