It took awhile for someone to acknowledge us at the counter but eventually placed our order with a young woman who mumbled something incoherently. I have slight hearing loss and thought it was my fault I could not hear her. I ask her to repeat what she said and again could not understand her. I turned to my spouse for help who also was dumbfounded. I honestly thought that maybe she was speaking another language. After picking up on a few words, I realized that she was simply speaking in a whisper and mumbling her words.
I remained confused as she slowly worked, stopped, went to the kitchen and discarded my pizza mid preparation then started over, all without any explanation. A line was forming and the only worker was this young woman who was working so slowly it seemed intentional.
She seemed intent on preparing the pizza one way and was confused and/or annoyed when I asked for more than one type of cheese. Now her voice and speech was clear as after every topping request she demanded “is that it?”
She overloaded the pizza with cheese and skimped on other toppings. I was worried about the amount of cheese she added but was afraid to say anything.
The pizzas were cut in 4 large pieces and two smaller pieces. Between the large cuts and overloaded cheese, it was impossible to eat or fold. Everything just slid off the large slices in a goopy mess.
As for the state of the restaurant, the prep area was gross and covered in splashes of sauce and other detritus. The drink area was dirty, had no napkins and no ice. The entire restaurant looked as if it hadn’t been cleaned in several days. The floors were covered in debris and none of the stations had napkins.
As for the pizzas; what little we did manage to get into our mouths was not tasty. We ended up throwing most of the food in the trash.
It has been a tic since we’ve eaten at Blaze but it is nothing like we remember it. To say that it has gone down hill is an understatement.
Whomever owns this restaurant is severely neglecting it and its staff. We will NEVER go here again.
Update: I got my pizza at 6:58. 50 minutes late. But… I ordered 3 pizzas and there were only 2. The third hadn’t even gone in the oven yet! They wanted me to wait 20 more minutes.
To their credit I did get a full refund but only because I asked.
I know stuff happens but this was beyond redemption. I didn’t even get an apology. From one of the employees I got, “You got your refund so you can leave now”.
I am going to predict the response from Blaze to this review- “we are sorry your experience didn’t live up to our high standards and we will use this information to improve. And to please contact customer care. HARD PASS. We are done with this location. Going to predict they will be out of business in under a year.
When we arrived to pickup our orders it appeared pretty dark and the establishment needed tidying up. Nonetheless, we proceeded to the pickup area wete they store the pizzas ready for pickup. As we looked for our orders and began to check them for accuracy the man behind the counter began to yell at us. What are you doing! Why are you looking at the pizzas! We stayediwe are making sure they are correct was stated. He tells again are they your pizzas? I’m the owner and I need to know he continues to tell. We state yes they are and we just want to be sure they are correct be leaving the restaurant! He goes well I just need to know, I need to make sure your no Uber eats or someone! We state that’s understandable but it’s the way you are yelling and staying it, TONE is everything. He simply turns and goes back to making pizzas. No apology ..as this was my first time visiting a blaze pizza I am not sure I would visit or purchase again. Customer service and being respectful is everything for me when I’m spending money.
Having fun with stuff and not taking care of customers and doing orders wrong
No manager around
Doing orders wrong two time
Wasting time just with the presence of 4 customers
It took 1/5 hours to get this burnt pizza
