I really liked the location, atmosphere, and decor of FireWorks. The interior of the restaurant has a very warm relaxing vibe. There is also outdoor seating if you'd rather do that. My server was very friendly and helpful with any questions I had. I got the blackened shrimp skewers, a 14" inch pepperoni, and a root beer. The shrimp skewers were delicious being perfectly charred and seasoned. The pizza was good but not great. The pizza itself tasted very "clean" (healthy). Their pizzas are wood-fire baked to perfection so the crust is delicious and the cheese and pepperoni were also quite flavorful. The only downfall of the pizza in my opinion was the sauce. The sauce itself is pretty flavorless with absolutely no tang, spice, or smokey flavor. If the sauce is improved I think this goes from a goodish pizza to a great one. The only other negative of the trip was the root beer. I am a craft root beer connoisseur and Abitta which is a Louisiana based brewing company has always been bottom-of-the-barrel for me in regards to craft root beer. Abitta root beer goes very light on flavor and taste more like root beer flavored water than true root beer. I can confirm that it was the soda itself and not perhaps melted ice diluting the beverage as I drank about half of it straight from the can. Overall, I had a strong experience and there are a number of things on the menu I would like to come back and try. Also, I'm not much of a drinker but it's worth noting that their beer list seamed quite extensive.

It was recommended to us by my boss and fellow pizza lover. Also he and his wife gave me a gift card for there. From the start it was fantastic. The guys working the open kitchen were professional & courteous. The hostess was very friendly. Our waitress/server was friendly, helpful, knowledgeable about the menu. We it took some time to figure out what we wanted. Every thing on the menu sounded yummy. We got a 14" pizza with fresh mozzarella cheese, feta cheese, spinach, and mushrooms no sauce. 2 small house salads(field greens, sunflower seeds, dried cranberries, halved cherry tomatoes, and gorgonzola cheese. The salad comes with raspberry vinaigrette. We got one salad with blue cheese. The dressing was good. The salads were very nice and the greens were fresh and dry. The pizza came and the crust was light, had a great flavor and was baked just right. Crispy bottom but not burnt. The toppings were fresh and that did not skimp on them. In my opinion it was one if the best pizzas we have had. We also got. 2 tiramisu to go. They were fantastic tasting. They were busy and now I know why. We will be back. Also when the outdoor seating is open you can bring your dog and they can sit there with you. When you eat there you will not be disappointed!!

Stopped in after hearing so many positive comments and was happy I did… The menu looked amazing, plenty of incredible appetizers and sandwiches, but I was just there for lunch and really wanted to try the pizza, so I opted for the kid’s size (they make a 6” of all their pies) of the Fire Cracker Pizza. But first, I started with their Greek salad… it was INCREDIBLE!!! One of the better Greek salads I’ve had! Perfect amount of olives and other fresh veggies and the dressing it was tossed in was excellent. The feta was nicely mixed throughout as well. It was really good… The dough was very nice, but would have been better on a bigger pizza. It seems they used too much dough for such a small pizza and it didn’t char on the crust, like I prefer from brick oven pizza. It was also too doughy. The sauce was excellent and the toppings were great! I’ll definitely not order a kid’s size pizza here again, but would most definitely return and get a larger pie, as the dough tends to be better on those anyway. Service was decent and the place gets busy for lunch, so plan to get there a little bit early.

This is one of our favorite pizza places in Leesburg. My daughter always insists on lunch here when we have a Mommy Daughter Mani-Pedi day. The staff is always friendly and attentive and The pizza is fresh made with several specialty pizzas to choose from. It came out hot and fresh with just the right mix of soft and crispy crust. I got a stared salad with mine which was very good mixed greens. Nice and simple and light. We also tried the garlic bread. A little too heavy on the garlic for my liking, but my daughter loved it. Finally, we had the warm mint chocolate chip chocolate cookie ala mode which was DIVINE! Nice and warm and soft and gooey with the perfect mix of mint and chocolate. Next time we go we definitely won't be sharing one. We've been here several times and have yet to have a bad meal. It's definitely one of our go-to places and I highly recommend if you want some good pizza or an easy lunch in a nice, local, environment.

I grabbed some dinner here with my dad and the food and dining experience were both great. If you get an appetizer I highly recommend the spinach dip -- it's some of the creamiest and most flavorful I've had. The pizza we had was the Virginia Luau, which (you can probably guess) is a Hawaiian pizza. It was delicious, although as my dad pointed out, the large size at Fireworks measures 14", which is smaller than at some other places. It was still plenty of food for both of us, but I thought it was worth mentioning. Neither of us ordered beer, but it looked like they had a wide variety on tap. On top of everything, our waiter was friendly and courteous. I would definitely recommend eating here.

i wanted to try something new and was craving some pizza and saw this place . it was my first time here and i would say the overall the experience was okay. the host stand was nice but our server was not friendly and was cold that the experience felt rushed. for the food we ordered the spinach dip and jalapeño appetizers and they were both flavorless alongside the dip having cheese burnt. The pizza was mid and also lacked flavor it just tasted plain. The environment for the outdoor seating was nice with heaters so that was enjoyable but the food and service didn’t allow us to fully enjoy it to come back multiple times.
