Been craving for pizza the past few days so we decided to go to Blaze. Not wanting to fight our way thru traffic to Pasadena, I checked on Yelp and whaddya know? Blaze in Cerritos? Way nearer. The line was pretty long but I thought it was just because they just barely opened. We waited in the cold outside for maybe 30 minutes till we even got to the door. No sweat. From there, the line moved pretty quickly. The servers were very friendly in spite of the huge # of people they had to serve. Meat-Eaters * comes with pepperoni, crumbled meatballs, red onion, mozzarella, and red sauce however you still have the option to add any ingredient for no added cost. The sausage is really good so of course I had to add it on there. Plus jalapeno and mushrooms and I'm good. S'more pie * great to eat while its still hot, fresh from the oven. Going up to pay, I thought they made a mistake so I reminded the cashier not to forget and charge for the two pizzas. But SURPRISE!!!! Pizzas were free on their opening night! He said, "Why do you think there's a lot of people lining up?" Well, sir. You won't hear any complaints from me, sankyu very much! Definitely will be back. I'm so glad I don't have to drive to Pasadena for some great Blaze pizza. read more

Blaze, I appreciate how fast your pizzas cook. They are decent. I will say however your staff seem so disorganized every time we visit. And to Eilene, it's not very professional to show to work with two gigantic hickies on your neck. In fact it's extremely distasteful and gross. Staring at your neck made me loose my appetite. read more

Came into blaze Friday morning. Got the deal for 2 Love the doughnots! Chris made my pizza to perfection as always! read more

First time here today and I can definitely say I'll be back...probably next week, since it's the closest "build-your-own" pizza place to where I live. It's $7.95 for the "build-your-own" pizza, which is on par with their competitors such as Pieology and PizzaRev. What stood about this place is that the pizzas are ready quicker and for you vegans out there they have VEGAN cheese as an option, just thought I'd let you vegans out there know. The employees here are really friendly and helpful even more so than their competitors, hence, customer service is on fleek lol. And third, I liked the fact that they have to-go boxes out in the open so that you can just walk up and get one without having to ask. The place has like a modern industrial chic ambiance to it, which is becoming pretty prominent but I digress. Bottom line, this place is aesthetically pleasing, poppin', and if you're a fan of build-your-own pizza joints, you do not wanna pass this place up. I'm glad I won't have to go to Pieology in Lakewood or PizzaRev at the Town Center when I'm craving BYO pizza. read more

Quality has significantly dropped after the second wave of Covid in late 2022. Ordered the same pizza twice one month apart and the olives and bell peppers kept making me feel sick when that doesn't happen at any other location. read more

Love Blaze! This location has a great staff who is really on top of their game, they loved through the lines quickly and my pizza was perfect! I grabbed a salad to go as well and it was fresh and nicely assembled. Prices are more than fair, $8 for each the pizza and the salad, plenty for two meals. Plenty of seating, clean and bright restaurant, perfect place to take kids and picky eaters! read more

Another fantastic dining option in the renewed Plaza 183! They are next door to another recommended spot, Pier 76. The interior is new, clean, and the side wall has a fun graphic image and a pizza-related quote. Heard the concept is similar to Pieology, but never been there so this is a first. I love the build-your-own concept where you choose your base sauce, meats, veggies, and toppings. Overall a solid selection, and especially love the ovalini (fresh mozza) and arugula! Only wish they had prosciutto, but I guess I can survive without that :-) Though arugula is a final topping request after it's been baked, I REALLY appreciated how generous the addition was when I asked for extra. Thanks, nice pizza-man maker! Service was friendly and they stayed on top of keeping the place clean. There is ample parking and it's located at the eastern end of Plaza 183. Stop by for a custom pizza, especially if you want to dine away from the cluster-packed Cerritos Mall. read more

Blaze Pizza - Build your own - ovalini, goat cheese, salami, and artichokes topped with fresh arugula! - Salad Near Me - Cerritos, California

The fast-casual concept of restaurants, popularized by the ever growing Chipotle has finally expanded into on my favorite food groups (yes you read that right), pizza! For round $8 with tax, you get a pretty sizable personal pizza with your choice of unlimited toppings or you can choose from one of their pre-made creations. The ones I saw didn't have enough spiciness for me, so I opted for a combination of jalapeno, banana peppers, bacon, chicken, pepperoni, spinach and feta cheese. Price: GREAT. You can't really go wrong for basically whatever pizza you're in the mood for for under $10 Location: The Plaza 183 across from the Cerritos mall has been attracting a lot of new business lately. One nice perk is that plaza often isn't too crowded which brings me to my next point. Parking: Didn't have any issues finding parking. Pizza: Cooked I believe in a wood fire oven which gives the crust a nice char and crispy crunch as compared to a regular oven you might get from other chains. Frankly I'm a fan as I'm not much of a heavy crust person and this is just the right amount. Tech: I love it when a company embraces the digital age. Blaze pizza allows online ordering and it is really convenient. Once you place your order online, they have your pizza pre-made and sitting off to the side. You can skip the line and go straight to the counter and tell them you're here for an online order. They'll make sure your order is correct, give you a receipt and start firing your pizza right away. This is to insure quality and it isn't just sitting under a heat lamp. Takes about 10 min. Would definitely return for a quick bite or craving. read more

I asked the pizza prep if that was free range soy chicken. I thought it was funny. This is a great deal for the price. Well, they might have made a mistake, which I might forget to point out; that they didn't charge me the additional $3.00 for the high rise crust... Okay, I will flog myself with wet eucalyptus branches later; unless I forget that too. Instagram.com/Jamylah_and_the_giants read more

Blaze is so much better than the other similar chains. My nieces and nephew love it and it's a relatively cheap place to feed them. This location is newer, so the pizza dough comes out really delicious and crispy. Initially, there were a lot of new workers there so some of them took a long time to make the pizza. Luckily, the place is not too busy. The worst thing about this place is that the parking is so difficult in this plaza. I'm also not too impressed by the app. They still don't cook the pizza until after you arrive, so it really doesn't save you that much time. I almost forgot to mention that the Smore's dessert is really good. read more

Build your pizza for only $7.95, as much as toppings as you want, can't beat that :). Highly recommend paying an extra 2 bucks for double crust...! It's crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. As far as ingredients go, liked the white sauce, sautéed onions, roasted garlic and peppers. For finishing drizzle, you can choose from bbq, pesto etc. The service was really great as well! 5 stars for the server Devon...he was very attentive and helpful even if they were about to close :) read more

Really impressed! I've been to a lot of similar restaurants, but I think Blaze has to be my favorite build-your-own-pizza place. First of all, the inside of the place is clean and modern, which just somehow made the pizza taste that much better. Second, service was fast and friendly! While I wasn't timing, I think the pizza did come out under three minutes? Lastly, I LOVE that they had togo boxes on the side, because I always feel bad bothering the cashiers up front. All the pizzas are $7.95, and while I can't say anything about the pre-made options, my pizza was delish. Note: the spicy marinara sauce wasn't that spicy... no worries though, there's tabasco bottles on the side! Another note: I believe you can order online, if you are short on time. I came on Monday for lunchtime, and there was no line. I didn't find parking to be an issue either. Definitely coming back! read more

Blaze Pizza - Build Your Own Pizza - 7.95 - Salad Near Me - Cerritos, California

Great customer service and Carlos was wonderful! I recently went here to grab a quick bite, didn't feel like having a huge meal so I ordered half a pizza. They were fairly busy and there was a bit of a wait. I usually order the art lover and wanted to see if I can get that with a substitute cheese since I recently became lactose intolerant. I asked the employee Carlos who was making my pizza if they had alternatives to dairy products and he was very helpful. He actually substituted my Art lover pizza with vegan cheese which I didn't even know they had. He was very understanding and made sure that he catered to my dietary needs. I enjoyed the great service and the attention that I received even if it was a bit busy. read more

Came for the opening night with friends, waited about 30ish minutes.. Didn't feel too long, but the wait was WORTH IT! From everything to the atmosphere to the food, everything was on POINT. With 3 minutes to cook your pizza, sometimes the toppings don't taste cooked enough; however that wasn't the case here! I must say that this may be better than the other pizza place in Cerritos Blaze may have just become my new pizza place to come to. read more

Blaze Pizza - The tastiest pizza I've had in a while. - Salad Near Me - Cerritos, California

Parking - the plaza has recently been updated so they share their lot with several other stores including The Habit which is nearby. But overall still ample amount of parking. Employees - Super friendly - like Chik Fil A or In N Out Friendly! Food - tons of choices, and they are very quick. I'd say this place is good for groups for a casual meal. Everyone can pay for their own pizza and beverage so there is no hassle of splitting a check. read more

The staff was so rude and unprofessional very disappointed won't be going back to this location

This was my first time trying this place since my sister likes it here. I made my own vegan pizza with vegan cheese, artichokes, pineapple, jalapeno, mushroom, garlic pesto, and arugala. I like the thinner crust that has a good balance between crispy and soft. I ordered online and came in to pick it up, not much interaction. read more

Great selection of toppings the quality of the place is top notch only wished they have whole wheat crust as a selection.

My first time here! I got the meat lovers pizza. Pretty good hands-down. They offer a variety of different pizzas and customization is available as well. I'll be back! read more

Worst pizza delivery service I've ever experienced. It's been over an hour since I went online to order 3 pizzas and salads. Postmates is supposed to deliver my order. The first time given was 27 minutes. Sounded reasonable. Then the time was changed to 53 minutes. Then as the clock ticked down...... 60 minutes later it went back up to 43 minutes. I'm hangry and this pizza delivery is a BUST! Save yourself the trouble and just pick it up or go to a place that actually delivers. I called the company, and the man who answered offered to transfer me to the store location. Once it rang, an automated voice told me this phone number was no longer in service. WORST EXPERIENCE read more

I've been to this particular Blaze a couple of times and I have to say that this place has amazing service! It is always nice and clean! After my last visit I was helped by a sweet young lady named Crystal, she was very helpful when it came to deciding the toppings on my pizza. She was very patient. I will definitely be back again! Every time I come back I have pleasant service read more

It was my first time here. So I gave it a try. Not bad. Unlimited drinks (non-alcoholic) chose all the cheeses and got so happy to find out they offered goat cheese. Heck yeah! Let's try this. And so when they cooked it and then tried it, it was so good. I did not expect that awesome combination. I will return here with my sis or friends again. Thank you guys for your hard work read more

The pizza was great, however the service was questionable. I am appalled by the treatment I received here. I went to the bathroom and my friends overheard the workers call me a weirdo. First of all, I am just your average person trying to enjoy a pizza. Second of all, if you look some characters from the muppets you should not be talking about anyone. The girl with the glasses should not be talking with her buck tooth ass. Lebron in the kitchen needs to stick to making sauce. I was a little salty but it's alright. I understand it must be miserable working in the fast food business and not every day will you encounter someone as polite as me. I'll still be leaving here in my brand new 2016 lexus, living life. Haters gonna keep hating. Thanks for the pizza. Who's the weirdo now. read more

Service was terrible and there was no enforcement of health guidelines during pandemic. Workers were rude and waved people through the line to take more orders even though there was no space, causing people to bunch up together and shout over each other. Due to the competing noise the person taking my order got all three of them incorrect. It's understandable to want to do the bare minimum to get by, but it was apparent that the people here didn't care to even do the minimum, all while caring less about trying to keep people from getting sick. Go get pizza somewhere else, like Pieology or Little Caesars. read more

Came here after hearing all the rave reviews from my co workers. I already ate next door at Pier 76 so I grabbed a pizza to go to eat later at work. Nice customizable pizza and good size especially for the price! This place is going to give Pizza Hut and dominos a run for their money! Can't compare this to pieology or any other build your own pizza since this was my first time experiencing one. You can choose one of their pizza flavor concepts and add on or take away any ingredients you don't want without having the price change! I love that! read more

Vegetarian Review, but really, it's about service. Only complaint: the line can get kind of long. Service: great. Everyone was polite and accommodating. My 1st pizza met it's demise in the oven, so they had to remake it. The experience, as unfortunate as it was wait for another pizza, was pleasant. They didn't make me wait in line again (by this time it had really built. And built). They were quick with the re-make, and they compensated me with a free pizza on my next visit. Nice. Side notes: - You can get sides of stuff in little ramekins if you want. - They have fresh mozzarella and will use an entire ball of cheese on your pizza. - No sun-dried tomatoes, but they have both fresh minced garlic and roasted garlic. read more

Out of all the Cerritos Build-Your-Own pizza joints, Blaze, MOD, and Pieology, this this is my favorite one. The classic sauce is slightly sweet and slightly tangy. The buffet of toppings are fresh. The melty cheese oozes off, each splice. And they don't skimp the ingredients either. My favorite pie is the simple BYO, with classic sauce, mozz, sausage, roasted garlic, sliced tomatoes, green bell peppers, and red onions. If you load up with the toppings too much, your crust will burn: they have to cook the pie longer. read more

I love their pizza! The sides they carry are great! Oh, and their brownie is to die for... lol! But what I enjoy, and appreciate the most is their GREAT customer service! I'm a regular there, so I especially enjoy Eileen's, and Chris's personable and fun personality's. Love it!! read more

I'm so happy to find they have Keto crust . The food never disappoints. And the staff they are super cool that you can feel the good profesional environment between them. I will definitely be going back. read more

Ordered a vegetable pizza and requested no ricotta - the ticket on the pizza reflected my request. However the pizza still had ricotta. Too bad really because it would have been awesome had I not gotten a huge bite of ricotta. read more

1. The female employee named "Syd" was very rude and needs to at least act like she likes her job. She spoke under her breath and was very impatient when I couldn't hear her. She would grab a hand full of each topping we picked and just literally throw it Onto the pizza without evenly dispersing it so it covers all of the pizza. After every single topping I picked she would ask "anything else" in an impatient manner almost as if to rush us. Please keep in mind the store was not busy and we were the only people in line. Not once did she smile and even seemed to role her eyes when I would ask a question or tell her i couldn't hear her. It was a very unpleasant ordering experience. Other stores I've been to have super friendly employees who are a lot more respectful. I held my tongue and didn't say anything about her bad attitude because I didn't want her to do anything to our food.... they already have a "B" rating so I wouldn't put it past them. 2. Once we got our pizzas.... the toppings were not fully cooked. I know it wasn't due to there being too many toppings because there were only 2-3 toppings per pizza that was ordered. Overall, the food quality was just not up to par with the rest of the other locations which is very disappointing. 3. The rest of the staff seemed annoyed and didn't acknowledge customers. Other locations I've been to the staff would greet every customer who walked in the door. The staff here seemed irritated that they had to make pizzas and answer questions ... which is very ironic because this is their job. 4. The fountain drink and drink dispenser area was dirty and needs attending to. They weren't busy at all and there were probably 5 people working, no one could take a rag to the counter? 5. Please read all the other reviews on Yelp and consider retraining your staff. I will most likely not be returning to this location as I would not want to spend my hard earned money in an unwelcoming environment that is dirty along with subpar quality food. The staff here seem very lazy, maybe you should consider retraining or hiring people who actually want to keep their jobs. read more

Second time here. Came in to grab a quick lunch with my kids. Service was a little slow today, but the staff was helpful and friendly.

I was excited to come in and experience Blaze Pizza after hearing so much about it. The employees greeted me right away by shouting "Welcome to Blaze Pizza!" when I entered the door. I was given a quick run down of the menu, and then was ready to start ordering my unlimited topping pizza! Every item looked fresh and they had a great selection of meats, cheeses, and other toppings. The employee helping me was gracious throughout my decision making process. I chose to have the spicy marinara because I heard it was good, and most pizza places do not offer it. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants a little more flavor. I chose 3 cheeses and 3 meats, and I felt like they gave me a small amount of each. I was excited to see their assortment of veggies such as zucchini and roasted red peppers. They also had whole roasted garlic cloves, which I would prefer to be in smaller prices. I ordered my pizza to go and was a little disappointed when I actually ate it. The crust was crispy on the outside, but the base of the pizza was soft. I felt it could have been cooked more. I love pesto but I did not like the pesto they had, when the employee put it on the pizza it looked very oily and it created oil pools on my pizza. Seriously gross and I could have gone without it. The pizza was not bad, but I would prefer other quick service pizza places before Blaze. *** Updated Review The staff was nice and friendly when I came in and asked if I had been there before. While I was ordering, I felt like they didn't put enough of each topping on the pizza, especially the cheese. So I asked the girl if I could have more of the mozzarella cheese, and she said yes. The cheese is very important to me and when a pizza doesn't have enough cheese I don't care for it as much. My pizza was a lot better this time. The crust was fully cooked and not soggy in the middle. The toppings were cooked well and I throughly enjoyed my pizza. I am glad that I went back to try Blaze pizza again! read more

*Warning* Do not eat here unless you enjoy moderate food poisoning. My friend and I went here today for lunch. Now I know why this location had a B health score a couple months ago... It went up to an A so we decided to try it. Besides all the employees looking hungover/annoyed, the one that made our pizzas was sick and kept wiping her nose on her wrist, while coughing into her elbow. I mean cmon - you work in food prep, GO HOME! She never touched the actual gloves with her snot so I figured I would be okay. When it came to putting the toppings she kept cross-contaminating, using the same gloves for the meats and for the veggies. Other pizza places like pieology and pizza studio NEVER do this: they always have separate people handling vegetables and meats, OR switch gloves between meats & veggies. I thought maybe it would be ok once everything was fully cooked in the fire oven. Nope, 30 minutes later and my friend and I feel like crap and (TMI) keep visiting the toilet. I'd rather drive a few extra miles and go to Pieology in the Cerritos shopping center off the 91 fwy! Never coming back here again. read more

Went in here for some pizza was a little grossed out as some employees with long hair had their hair down only with a hat on top, still their hair was very long enough laying out.

Just arrived and that alone was scary. Pizza if half filled and soggy not their normal crispy took screenshots because a pizza is either done right or not! Still on hold with a manager and nothing.
