I love the pizza here and have been coming since the location opened. The service has gone way down hill in the 2 years it has been open. Currently here with 4 people behind the counter who have zero clue as to what is happening and could honestly care less about customer service. This is probably the last time I will get pizza here. Blaze better get it together. There are lunch places opening up all around this location so they are not the only game in town anymore. read more

Never Again! Don't Go! I tried to mobile order at this blaze pizza. App says "order completed". I walk up to pick up counter. I politely ask the gentleman if my order is ready and give my name. Another worker who was slicing pizza says " yo, you ain't at domino's bro, you gotta wait" . Needless to say, things went downhill fast from there and we engaged in a heated verbal altercation in the pizzeria. I should mention there was about 10 other people waiting for their pies as well. I've worked in Newark for over 20 years, long before Blaze Pizza came to town. I think that the "pizza slicer" thought he could be rude and disrespectful to customers because we were in an urban environment and people don't care. Unfortunately for him, he was sorely mistaken. I got a full refund and left empty handed. I would never give my money to a business that does not value their customers and treat them with basic respect and dignity. It's definitely time for some customer service training here. What a shame! Downtown Newark is in the midst of an economic revitalization and customer experiences such as this undermine that progress. My advice, Don't Go! You will be disappointed. read more

Customize your fresh made brick oven pizza for $9....you can't ask for anything better in life. This chain is just amazing with fresh ingredients, large variety, customization - which basically means we are at fault to be GLUTTONS!! Each time I visit the pizza ingredients always change and it is absolutely delicious every single time. Great lunch spot but honestly this location gets SWAMPED at lunch time from all the local businesses like Prudential, Rutgers, etc.. So definitely come during off peak hours! Also when you are deciding the ingredients you won't be rushed. Highly highly recommend this chain!!! So fresh and delicious - you have to at least try it. It is perfect for vegetarians AND meat lovers. Additionally, Its great to share a pizza with someone especially if you have a lot of ingredients - the pizza ends up beings SOOO big and filling. So I highly recommend bringing a friend to share! Enjoy! read more

Fast fired is damn right. If your ever in a pinch and want something really good but don't have much time, definitely come here. I love the way they had an assembly line of workers which was so efficient, they were all kind and helpful in what pizzas were good and weren't afraid to put a little extra topping ;) After about 7 minutes my pizza was already done! I had mixed 3 of their lemonades (red grapefruit, passion fruit, and lemon) for a heavenly mix- and ordered their White pie which was TO DIE FOR. my mom ordered the chicken caesar and my grandma got a pepperoni, and all of them had been crisped to perfection within minutes. I will totally come back here if i have the chance! read more

The best fast pizza option in the Mar Vista/Culver City area as far as choice, taste, and speed goes. I love being able to choose my crust (and their gluten free crust is delicious, though there is cross-contamination, as all pizzas go into the same oven, so it's not recommended for those with Celiac disease!). They have vegan cheese (Daiya) and two of their sauces are dairy-free. Lots of toppings to choose from. There is an allergy card available in store and it's also online so check their website before ordering to make sure. They use a different spoon for the vegan cheese, but then cut your pizza with the same tool as the regular (non-vegan, gluten-containing) pizzas, so again, if cross contamination is an issue, beware. You can always ask and they will at least wipe the cutter/wheel. The gluten free crust takes longer to bake. Ordering online means your pizza may or may not be ready in 20 minutes, but it's usually faster than ordering in person. The regular pizza is ready in 10 minutes or so. Delicious pizza, staff is a little careless but they mean well and usually make it right... For example, they have accidentally given my GF pizza to someone else twice so far, and both times took half an hour to remake it. But once they gave me a free drink while I waited, the other time my pizza was free. Overall, I like it and I'm glad they have a good selection. read more

ONE OF MY FAV PIZZA PLACES! literally impossible not to walk in when you pass by on Broad. I always go with the "make your own pizza". You can even have your crust coated with pesto or garlic (MM MM MM). My fav ingredients are prob the turkey sausage and the ricotta cheese. there's just something about their thin crust pizza and unlimited toppings that keep me coming back! read more

After ordering online, I waited an extra thirty minutes, watching at least 5 people walk in the door and get their pizzas before me. That was After I established that I had ordered online. I ordered a green strip that came with no green (pesto or arugula). There were about 6 workers watching two people do basically everything. read more

Flavor is great, better delivery hours than most. No delivery person Can ever find my place so that's not on them that I had to walk to find the lazy person in the car that couldn't figure out apartment numbers. delivery cost added it's a splurge for sure. read more

Came here on a Sunday night super pack. Def need more workers. I got the build your pizza $8.95 unlimited toppings. You can pick from a variety of ingredients which I thought was pretty interesting. Then they cook it for you. The pizza cook time wasn't long but they did burn my pizza. I won't bash them for that since I knew they were short staff. I would recommend and come back to this place and try out the pizza again. Hopefully this time it won't be burnt!!! read more

My coworker let me know that this place existed down town, where I frequent often for lunch. It's fast, but doesn't skimp for quality and flavor. I sat inside during my first visit, but there's the option to order ahead, skip the line, and carry out. Special gem is their flavored/infused teas. So yum! Also, if you really want to be efficient not wasting one moment of your lunchtime-- download the app (; I literally had to put myself on probation. Otherwise I'd be eating pizza every day! And lastly, just so you know blaze pizza over &pizza read more

This is a welcome addition to Newark! The personal pizza is plenty large enough and you can get as many topics as you desire. Sauce is delicious and the crust remains plenty soft enough despite being thin crust. No cracker crust here! This is a make-your-own pizza place so it is made right in front of you and takes about 10 minutes start to finish, which is less than most fresh baked pizza places. Come on down! It's right across from Military Park in the beautiful renovated Downtown. A pizza and a drink is $10.50 including tax so it is quite reasonable. read more

Service has fell off as of lately and I've been to other Blaze locations such as Staten Island and The type of service along with the preparation is completely two different experiences. Secondly I'm highly upset at the fact that I have been a Blaze customer for a very longtime now and I turned Vegan while still staying a loyal customer to you guys & yet sadly I was misinformed for several months at this location. I usually would put the pesto sauce on my crust when making my pizza but I wasn't told until recently that it has cheese in it, mind you I have been making Vegan Pies here for at least 7 months now and no employee had told me. Please educate the employees to avoid mistake like this in the future. Food is still good just gotta stop burning the pizzas now lol read more

Blaze Pizza - Salad Near Me - Newark, New Jersey

REALLY GOOD PIZZA!!!! I did have a photo of my 11" pizza but i didn't want it to get cold, so I ate it. Maybe next time.

Oh I had such high standards. After having this in Florida I was expecting something good. Came here after hockey practice at Prudential with my kids and some of there mates. Prep areas were gross. Mozz all over the prep station in the sauce containers just mass chaos. Just so below standard. I ordered a total of 6 pies. 2 simple, 2 one topping and 2 build your own. First of all the workers in there are slower than molasses ( no joking ). They fired the 2 simples and then it took them 15 minutes to just build the other four. WHY!? These people had no sense of urgency. To top it's off wouldn't it make sense for you to have sense to fire all 6 pies together? This way they are all hot and we can all enjoy as a group. The papers clearly state how many pies are with the order. (1 of 6 , 2 of 6 etc. ) Especially if you ALL are going to move like y'all don't have anything going on at least use your brain. Will not go to this location ever again. Disappointed!!!! read more

Let me start off by saying the Pizza here is Awesome!! My first time too. The high sealing and ambience were also great. I felt welcomed upon arriving. It was full of customers. My experience with one specific employee (Sean) was spot on! He was super patient with my "Pickyness", and made me try new ingredients. Great attention to detail! Furthermore, I was impressed with the entire experience, service and Food!!! I will be back with friends! Thanks Sean! read more

Blaze Pizza - HAPPY GIRL!!! - Salad Near Me - Newark, New Jersey

The service was excellent all the way through the process. Everyone working was super polite, cheerful and helpful. As a pizza snob I give the pizza an ok. It's good. Not amazing. The salad was good, perfect balance of ingredients. Suggest getting dressing on side though. I won't seek out this place again, but would not object if others wanted to go. read more

The best part about Blaze is that you can create your own pizza! I mean, you can literally put as many toppings on a pizza for $8.95. How much better does it get than that? I am never disappointed. They also have an app where you can earn flames towards rewards and during times of the year you even get free pizza. C'mon! FREE PIZZA!!! At times if you go during lunch it is packed in there out the staff is always friendly, has a smile and does their best to give the best customer experience. I'm so thankful they but Blaze downtown Newark. For years we had limited options. Thank you! read more

Been coming here for a while now and it never disappoints. Loooove that I can get a vegan pie here and customize my pizza the way I like. Fast service and nice staff. I hope they add some vegan meat options soon (I think they have like one but they need more) read more

What more can you say?! You have options!! Gluten free, pesto, red sauce... it's quick action on the assembly line and you can choose preselected pizzas made fresh, just for you, or build your own! They have half size boxes for leftovers too! Soda is legit! Try black cherry! I believe they're made with real sugar cane and no artificial colors or other garbage. Who knew, a cleaner soda option exists?! read more

Really great pizza for the price ($6 or so for a full pie!!) served by super friendly employees. The pizza is thin-crusted and crisp, a far cry from the greasy slices you get at most chains. For surprisingly affordable and tasty pizza, Blaze is great. read more

Always a good experience in your store....but the evening staff on this visit (7/26/18) were Rock stars when it comes to customer service . From the young lady who took my order, to the young lady who created the pue, the cashier and the young man who mastered that oven!!!! Special shout out to Gigi. Her customer service was on another level. Sweet...welcoming...charming..but not at all annoying. read more

I didn't try the food, but this is how my phone call went, Me- hi I'd like to place an order for pick up Girl- we don't deliver Me- I'd like to place an order for pick up Girl- bye *click * read more

This place knows how to handle a rush but almost are rushing too much. They are fast and efficient. It's a little scrambled at times and you can't finish asking for toppings before they are throwing your pizza in the oven. I wish that they would take a little time to slow down and actually focus on the order instead of worrying about the next person. read more

After not enjoying my initial experience, I was promptly contacted by the leadership team to see how they could make things better for me. I have returned a few times since then, and though still not my fave, it gets 4 stars because they do as advertised, customer oriented team members, and offer an array of toppings and three different kinds of crust. And because I love their blood orange lemonade. Budget yourself ten dollars for pizza or salad and a drink, 12 if you want a s'mores dessert that you can get toasted. Forget about being in and out on a Friday or during the lunch hours, but they do try to make the experience comfortable and speedy. Most people are regulars, they know what they want so it's not that bad. They have an app now I believe where you can earn rewards. read more

Do NOT eat here!!! I gave a raving review prior to this some weeks ago. However, today I went and after getting down to the last 2 slices of my pizza there was a hair. Looked like a beard or pube and I am ON FIRE!!! I am so F*%king TIRED of food places being GROSS & CARELESS when it comes to food services!!! I will say this plainly, if you don't like your job search for another one. To the chic who made the pizza; If you hate the establishment; go work at the mall or go next door to Nike & see if they're hiring. I'm F*%KING TIRED OF IT!!! Smfh I work in downtown Newark & walked 15 minutes on my lunch to get here, only to be greeted my a chic who you could tell was in a bad mood & only to get a f*%king nasty azz hair in my shit!! I will NEVER return to this place! I am PISSED! This is food that you have to put in your body WTF! I'm DONE with food establishments who handle food like trash, this is why I don't usually eat outside my goddamn house!! What a HORRID feeling after you've ingested MOST of the pizza to realize that you may have ingested someone's nasty azz hair!!! I'm F*%KING FURIOUS!!! I'll never return to this RAGGEDY AZZ PLACE. I HATE that these food places can never stay F*%KING CONSISTENT for once... DAMN!!! read more

Blaze Pizza - Salad Near Me - Newark, New Jersey

The only reason I'm rating this place is cause they gave me a free dessert to rate them 5 star. Oil had to change it to a 1 star review. At least 7 employees in the store and most of them walking around doing nothing. Management needs to pay a bit more attention here. read more

Great pizza, keep up the good job, very friendly, welcoming ladies that work there.. Please leave the other chain pizza spots alone & change your taste for Blaze pizza read more

Pizza was good but delivery was via door dash and driver was a complete d*!!! Extremely rude and nasty. Looking for a way to to give the driver -5stars. Horrible! read more

I came here with a friend around 2pm on a Friday for lunch. There was no line and as a first time customer I was hoping there would be one, so I had more time to decide. Anyways, this place has a chipotle styled assembly line, but with pizza. I opted for the make your own pizza. I got the original crust (because ordering pizza without gluten is like ordering an Oreo without the cream.) Next, I had the spicy sauce, which was spicy! Then, ricotta cheese, mozzarella, cherry tomatoes and basil. I didn't trust the meat options because they did look like they were frozen. The timing of the making of the pizza was all of 3 minutes, AT MOST. It was super quick, crunchy and very good. I ate the whole thing- regretted it later, but that's ok. My friend got the pesto pizza which she said was very garlicy. Overall she thought it was very good too. She also got the lemonade which was very good (she let me have a sip.) The reason for the three stars (I would give it 3 1/2) was because the pizza did leave me with an upset stomach, I think because of the spicy sauce and over eating, but it shouldn't have that much of an affect on me. Also, the tables were dirty and greasy. I was wearing a white shirt, so I was prone to stains. Overall, I would go again, but not on a Friday, so I can leave it in the office fridge for the following day. read more

The pizza was cold and the cheesy bread was burned. Once we heated the pizza it was excellent. The cheesy bread not so much

I've been looking forward to trying this spot out and I'm so glad we did! My group of 5 friends and I walked in on a Friday night before a show at NJPAC, when it wasn't too busy. It was our first time and the server behind the counter was patient with us and helped explain our choices. We ended up ordering 2 meat lovers, 3 create your own, and a 1/2 pizza 1/2 salad. The personal pizzas are the perfect size and cook super quickly. We had a few garlic knots and they were AMAZING. Loved the fact that they had straws that weren't plastic but also didn't start disintegrating in your drink either. If we're ever in downtown Newark again and in search of a quick bite, we will definitely be back. read more

Kinda and the crew were fast and great. Recommend anytime I'm in NJ. I did a build your owe pizza and my daughter did a "red vine pizza". Both were very delicious. read more

I confess, I am giving this a slightly lower rating than the 2.5-3 stars it deserves. However, it's a fast food pizza restaurant... in New Jersey. The consensus among my friends who went here said "this would be really good pizza, if we weren't in the New York area." Right now, if you look at Yelp, this is the best restaurant in the entire city. That is, without a doubt, false. It is good for what it is, it offers gluten-free options, which can be hard to find. As far as pizza goes? It is average to below average. Maybe there should be different categories for fast food. It compares favorably to other fast food. As far as pizza goes? Mercato, Queen, Edison Ale House, and others are all better. Yelp can be kind of disappointing sometimes. read more

This places has really fallen from grace it use to be my favorite pizza place around sadly the quality of the food and the once awesome workforce has diminish to a environmental that is only a ghost of its past. It is a shame since coming here was always something to remembering I fear the upcoming future this place may have in store if it continues to fall from where it once was. read more
