Nice hole in the wall pizza place. Serves good pizza with an old school vibe to the decor. Ran by it by accident. Will definitely be coming back. 10/10 recommended.

We were looking to grab a quick slice of pizza before BOTG a couple of weeks ago. This was not a good choice. Didn’t enjoy the cardboard-thin, overcooked (burnt crust) pizza “slices” and didn’t realize they’d have to make each “slice” individually when we ordered them. Should have & would have just ordered a large pizza instead since it would have been almost half the price & taken just as long as we waited for 2 slices – which turned out to be $8 each! My slice was freaking pepperoni! Geez! Their large pepperoni was only $10 for the whole dang thing, so we wasted money ordering slices. No one working there bothered to tell us or ask if we’d rather order a whole pizza for $2 more than a “slice” (it’s called up-selling, y’all!), nor did they even acknowledge us when we first walked in & stood at the register and watched them as they stood in front of us carrying on their conversation as if we weren’t there. More than one table had crumbs from previous diners, so there is obviously no cleaning or sanitizing anything between guests. We had wanted to dine-in, but it took so long that luckily they put the food in to go pizza boxes, so we got outta there & on with our evening as soon as it was done. Mine tasted better cold later in the evening when I ate my leftovers, and the “slices” were fairly big, but my other half didn’t care for his at all. Home Slice, it’s all you from now on! I typically don’t give negative reviews, but unfortunately this experience deserved one. I understand every experience and restaurant and staff will differ day to day, but they all shouldn’t be a let down at the same time. We will not return, at least not to the South Congress location.

I stopped in here for a light lunch the other day. I enjoyed a slice of their pepperoni pizza. It was delicious with a thin crust like I particularly enjoy. I also had a Greek salad. I ordered it as a house salad ….not the full size (good for two) salad. The Greek salad was the best I’ve ever had, with lots of kalamata olives, red and green peppers, pepperoncini, cucumbers, onions and feta cheese. The side of dressing was Greek vinaigrette and really delicious. For dessert I topped it off with a yummy homemade chocolate chip cookie. My bill was just below $14.00– so if you want really tasty local pizza and more, stop by.

Dont let the very limited parking spaces deter you from eating here. The pizza was outstanding. IMO, the pizza was better than HomeSlice which is just down the road. Some friends also ordered calzones. These calzones were 1/2 pieces and they were massive. I can’t imagine what a whole calzone would look like! Very friendly service and pleasant staff! Parking is difficult, but worth it to get inside and eat hot fresh delicious food. Garlic knots were unique- as in I have never tasted anything like these before and liked them. Highly recommended!

DISAPPOINTING…My slice of cheese pizza was half the size of the closest competitor but cost $2 more. It’s a damn shame when your $5.41 slice is not much larger than your receipt.

Pizza was good. We have the pepperoni and a meat pizza and everything came out tasting good. I like thin crust on my pizza and this place had it.

High-grade pizza in a low-key atmosphere. Out of this world Stromboli. Big, beautiful salads. Awesome al dente spaghetti. Fast, friendly service. Strong work, gentlemen!

probably the worst italian hoagie/cheesy bread I’ve had in a while. the sandwich had no meat, and for some reason the person packaging the cheesy bread decided to put the sauce cup directly in the middle of the bread. if it’s a to-go order, just put it on the side? there’s a giant dent in the middle of the bread where the cheese just separated from everything. salad was decent. definitely not worth $35.
