What People Are Saying About Slice Pizzeria

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.
I am not too sure...but others seem to like it.

My first trip to Slice--Ordered a pizza over the phone, they said it would take 15 minutes. After waiting 15 minutes, I drove over. I went in to pay and noticed that they had a "slice specialty pizza" some sort of potato, sausage with an avocado aoli. My original order wasn't ready yet, so I ordered one single slice of the slice of the day ... Well, to my surprise it took 30 minutes for them to cook one slice of pizza. I am not exaggerating, 30 minutes. After 15 minutes, I asked the counter girl and she said, "well. you changed your order so it is going to take longer" In my defense, I didn't change my order, I added to my order. If a whole pizza takes 15 minutes, why in the world would one slice take a half an hour?? I paid and tipped and took my pizza home .
I opened my pizza and to my disappointment it wasn't really that good. It tasted flat, not that it was bad just not really good.. The second trip to Slice- I ordered the cheese ravioli with bacon,chicken and pecorino and a pesto cream sauce. Well, there was no sauce at all, just a clump of pesto, tons of bacon, slightly dry chicken on really lovely cheese filled pasta. The dish would have been good if there was any sauce. However, there was none. Too much bacon and way too much cheese. It had a lot of potential but didn't live up to the expectation. I will go back and eat in the restaurant because I am thinking that some thing gets lost in transportation when you order take out from Slice.
- Pros: cheap, friendly, local
- Cons: only average on the taste scale

I suggest anyone interested in further reviews go to Yelp and read them there. I'm from NJ originally and have been eating this pizza since the place opened. Great pizza. Can't give a review on service, have only eaten in once at the bar. Tourists, remember, we are BELOW sea level. You can't make yeast rise the same. These folks have it down. Go....Eat.
- Pros: Great Pizza
Good...not great...

I have been wanting to try Slice for a while. I finally did and I was not impressed. The pizza was so-so, and it didn't help that my slice was a bit overcooked and too hard for my tastes. I asked for water and my glass was dirty and sent back twice. I finally settled on a plastic cup. I also saw the waitress pick something up off the ground and set it on the counter where the kitchen crew puts food when it is ready. Not so sanitary... The bruschetta was actually really good, and the meatball sandwich was also tasty. Unfortunately, the worst thing on the menu is the "slice."
- Pros: Good bruschetta, drink specials
- Cons: Poor customer service, questionable cleanliness
