| - I'll give SLICE a nod, it definitely crosses a unique bridge between traditional South Hills style pizza and artisan pies. After wanting to try it for a few years now, we finally made a random impulse stop on our way home on the the T.
Having remembered positive praise about the "Fancy Pants" pizza, we decided to give one of those a whirl. As others commented, super thin, crisp and chewy crust (note, don't reheat these pies in the oven or you'll be greeted with a brick), but definitely no where close to my favorite dough.
The toppings seem to be where SLICE shines. Inventive mix-ups, quality ingredients and portion control (yes... I said it, not every pie needs to have 10 lbs of cheese and sauce on it) create an overall enjoyable bite.
I don't know what it was, but our party just wasn't digging it. Even as I look back, I can't tell if I liked the pizza or if I was just hungry. Given SLICE delivers, well likely give that a try next time we're in a bind for food, but I definitely don't think I'd actively seek it out with so many other great pie joints in the South.
