Editorial Review for Slice Pizzeria – by Citysearch Editors
In Short
It may look like a hole-in-the-wall, but it has become a favorite among locals, couples looking for a cheap-yet-intimate date and passers-by lured by the smells of fresh-baked dough and garlicky tomato sauce. Stop by for a slice or sit down to gorge on pizza--toppings range from the traditional (fresh mozzarella and tomato) to the exotic (gorgonzola and prosciutto)--calzones, penne pasta and fresh-tossed Italian, Caesar or garden-greens salads.

Food is fine, but every single person that works there is either too high to remember you ordered something, or FAR TOO COOL to actually serve it to you. I was in there today, since I live around the corner and it's no big imposition to go there, and there were TWELVE EMPLOYEES to ELEVEN CUSTOMERS on a lazy saturday afternoon. Here's the deal, they're all young trustafarian hipster people, so they don't wanna have a real work environment for work, I get that, but seriously - customers deserve as much respect as you give yourselves. Don't be jerks to the people making your dream of owning a restaurant of your own happen. I assume at least one or two of these 20something people has some ownership interest in the place, otherwise it wouldn't be run that way, so that's real advice. Seriously, it looks like one or two of them own it, and they invited all their friends and their girlfriends to work there, and everyone just half-asses it. I don't know. Good pizza, but you'd make a lot more money if your servers didn't act like they were doing the customers a favor every time you go in there. Like I said, I live around the corner and I love pizza, so I've been in there 5-6 times, and the service is NEVER good. I feel bad for the other reviewer who said she went in there with her family and waited an hour while others got served, and I totally believe that it happened just like they said. And I also believe no manager would talk to them because THERE SEEMS TO BE NO MANAGER. I just don't like that. As if you're TOO SQUARE TO EAT PIZZA. That just sux. If someone thinks he or she is too cool to bring normal people and their kids a pizza, then that person IS JUST NOT THAT COOL. That's it. STOP TRYIN TO BE HIPSTERS! Oops, sorry, thougght I was done.
Pros: quality ingredients, kitchen is very good, albeit slow
Cons: SERVICE FROM THE HAG WAITRESSES IS TERRIBLE TERRIBLE

This is the best pizza I have ever had. I have been to New York and Chicago and this pizza stands alone. It is different then both those styles of pizzas, but I think it can hold its own versus any pizza in the world. As far as bad management goes, I have never seen it. I was there during Mardi Gras and remember the incident described here. I was in one of those other tables sitting near the impatient jerks. When a pizza shop has about 30 new tickets a minute pouring into a kitchen with one pizza guy and one slice guy, your food might take a minute. I watched the manager say to that table, "Im bartending and really busy, you're welcome to speak to me in the bar. The people ignored him. I also watched the same manager make 2 white russians while running food and talking to a table. If anything that manager should have gotten a medal. I wish my managers could do just two things at once. All in all this pizza is worth the wait! i have added to my must see list of things in New Orleans.
Pros: Young staff with a great mix of tunes. Mixed customer base
Cons: Parking
