My favorite pizza when we come 2 ½ hours to visit my Daughter in Peoria. Yummy garlic bread too! Nice rewards program… lots of goodies to enjoy! We don’t often find good food in Peoria, much less good pizza. I’m from Chicago, so I don’t say that lightly. Very enjoyable pizza and I would eat it hear in the Chicago area if they were here!

Love this place! I’ve heard people say the sauce is too sweet. That’s their signature sauce. You can always order a different sauce that is more traditional. Don’t let the stop you from going here! Brandi on the pub side is fast, attentive and knowledgeable.

Pretty good pizza, sauce was sweet and garlicky. Toppings were fresh… sausage was textured vegetable protein just like most chains.
The crust was typical of newer attempts at chain pizza… no yeast at all. Crust was very crispy, just flavorless.
Person who took my order over the phone was a little curt.
I would not order again, but if you are looking for something better than dominos/​little caesars/​papa johns it might fit the bill.

I’ve been coming here off and on for the last year or so. Never had a bad time. Their backdraft pizza is amazing.

Claustrophobic restaurant. Pizza tastes like cardboard. Rude staff. Never will go back.

Had the XL jalapeño/​pepperroni pizza, some wings, and spaghetti with meatballs. The pizza was the best of our entrees and came with breadsticks. The spaghetti sauce was a little too sweet for me. The wing were done just right, but they could of had a bit more kick to them (supposed to be spicy hot)! Every booth has a tv for personal viewing, a plus in my book! The staff was delightfully helpfull, too. Since we came for dinner, I’ll be coming back to try the lunch buffet in the future!

Delivery was quick and they delivered to our hotel so that was a plus. It also was hot on delivery, which was great. So, why the two stars? The breadsticks were swimming in butter, the pizza had way too many onions on it, and the salad had wilted lettuce on it and again, way too many onions on it. Their pizza sauce isn’t that great either. Sorry I couldn’t get on board with firehouse pizza.

Pizza is good. Bartender was really cool. What pissed me off was the bar manager and her little group of friends who sat in the bar and loudly made racial and anti religious comments while watching tv. Very rude

Had the buffet, it was bad. The pizza was dried out like it was cooked long before it came out to the buffet table. It reminded me of frozen pizza ! Not worth the money at any price, go to aurilios that’s good pizza. Never going back to firehouse the only edible part was the salad.

Love the sweet sauce on their pizza. Thin crust, hand tossed, and deep dish are all great. Some of my favorite pizza to eat in the Peoria area. Plus they have a rewards program to get free food! Check out their Pub right next door too!

I have had the pizza here twice and neither time was good. Actually, my first experience was with delivery and the second time was actually in the resturaunt. Honestly, I probably wouldn’t go back on my own or order their pizza again.
When I went in, I ordered a Gluten Free pizza and was excited that they offered «thick» crust Gluten Free. I ordered that and was willing to wait longer for it to be done. The waitress brought out this chard brick and asked if it was too done for me. Really? It was honestly burnt black, of course that is too done! I don’t understand why she even brought it out, why not just tell me that it was burnt and they had to make another?
Well, needless to say, they made me another pizza, but the second wasn’t that much better. Everyone else was finished eating by the time mine came out and we had kids with us so they were getting cranky and miserable. The second pizza was more than done for my liking, the crust bordering on burnt. This isn’t «thick» crust either, it just a smidgen thicker than the normal crust. Whoopdi-​do. Just another reason to charge more money. While the outside of the crust was borderline burnt, the inside was still dough. It was just thick enough to see the two layers.
Bottom line, I would rather get Domino’s gluten free pizza then ever bother here again. If you can’t make something right, don’t offer it.

My husband and I went there for the first time yesterday! While it was much more casual than I had expected, the staff was very friendly, and the food was delicious! I was actually really pleasantly surprised, they had a VEGAN pizza! I’m not vegan, but I am a vegetarian AND lactose intolerant, so basically everything good about pizza– I avoid. I ordered the vegan, and it was delicious. I haven’t had very many vegan pizza experiences, so I don’t have much to compare it to, but watching my husband eat a sausage and pepperoni deep dish wasn’t as difficult as I had imagined it being. We will definitely be back!

This place is kinda hard to see. Looks kinda iffy on the outside, but actually decent on the inside. I got the Spaghetti with marinara sauce and ground beef, onions, and mushrooms. The sauce was sweet which I didn’t like. Not too much taste. I was disappointed that the onions weren’t cooked and I found 1 tiny mushroom. It came with 4 pieces of garlic bread which were good. Everyone got pizza which was great. All you can eat salad bar for $ 2.99 HELLO! Great selection and really good. I think the lady noticed I was picking at my food so when we got the check she said she didn’t add on all 3 salads.
3 salads, 3 small pizza’s, 1 coke and child’s drink, 1 child’s pizza, and spaghetti all for $ 30.
I’d say this place is good just for the pizza and salad. Nice little «hole In the wall.»

Friendly staff, great service… but most importantly, to a celiac like me, great gluten free pizza. They also offer potato skins which are gluten free and cookies, I believe. I’m really in it for the pizza though, I love their sweet sauce. My husband’s favorite pizza is the chicken bacon ranch, which also comes in sandwich form. And he likes the lunch buffet. No gluten free on the buffet, of course, but I’ve called ahead and had a pizza ready for me when we arrived.

I have yet to have a good pizza in Peoria. We had great service, all of the staff were very friendly, but the pizza doesn’t deliver. The sweet sauce is gross, the traditional sauce is passable. The crusts are lacking in flavor and texture. The do use very fresh toppings, though a bit stingy. Overall they seem like really nice people, but I’ll have to continue my search to find a passable pizza in Peoria.
