| - Quick, fast and hot - and I don't mean my date.
I've heard a lot of good things about Blaze Pizza from word of mouth. I even heard that it's NBA superstar Lebron James' favourite pizza place in the whole wide world! Ok, maybe not but I do know that he owns shares in the company so it's no surprise that he would mention it on his Twitter or Instagram.
Anyway, at Blaze for $11.45 you can heavily customize your own pizza with as many toppings as you want at no extra charge. As the base, they have 3 kinds of sauces like regular tomato sauce to spicy tomato sauce, a few types of cheeses from mozzarella to Parmesan to goat cheeses. For toppings, there's bacon, pepperoni, italian mild sausages and spicy italian sausages, grilled chicken, ground beef, to name a few. On the veggies side, there's zucchini, pineapple, mushrooms, arugula, grilled and sauteed onions, etc. The possibilities are endless.
Once you've settled on your choices of toppings, they put it into a fast firing gas oven that bakes your pizza within 5 minutes. They don't have slices. So if you can't or don't finish your pizza, there are small rectangular takeout boxes on the side that you can use bring your leftovers home. I love the fact that they have a lot of condiments at your disposal to make your pizza taste even better like oregano, sea salt, more parmesan cheese, pepper flakes, etc.. I also like the fact that unlike other major pizza chains, their dough they use is not too thick and not too thin, and just right in the middle for a complete pizzeria experience.
There is dine in seating and plenty of it. It faces southward towards Yonge/Dundas Square so you can people watch the busy intersection as you scarf down your pizza. They are in the process of getting their alcohol license as on the menu there is an option for beers as drinks later on. If you can't decide on what toppings you want or just want a pre-made selection, there are cheaper choices on the menu for the most basic pizza option that costs from $5.45 and up but below the $11.45 standard pizza where you customize it yourself.
I've returned since my first visit and while it's not the best pizza I've had, it currently is a favourite place to go for pizza that I have no qualms about recommending it to others. There pizza tastes really good, the ingredients are fresh and made to order on the spot, they are generous with the toppings and sauces, there's hardly a wait, the staff is helpful and friendly, what's there not to like?
Definitely check this place out on your next trip downtown!
