Being from Chicago, I'm a total pizza snob, but this place was really good and damn cheap. Bottles of wine for $10, not kidding you. The service was great and the pizza selections seemed to be authentic NOLA, at least from what I can tell. I mean, not that I'm the best judge or anything...

Great little place! We stopped in on a rainy Friday and the place was packed. After waiting about ten minutes for a table, we were seated and ordered drinks (iced teas), salads (arugula and gorgonzola for my companion and caprese for me), and our meals. I decided on the old-standby pepperoni while he ordered a slice of the arugula, mozzarella, and prosciutto. Our salads came out pretty quickly, and we both enjoyed them immensely. The caprese was made with Slice's homemade mozzarella, and man... it was incredible - possibly the best caprese I've ever had. But then we waited for our pizza. And we waited. And we waited some more. We waited close to 45 minutes for two slices of pizza. When they finally arrived, I was convinced they would be cold, but they weren't. But I did laugh at my friend's pizza, which was a slice of cheese pizza with prosciutto and arugula plopped on top after the pizza had been taken out of the oven. He said it was really good, but the presentation was very disappointing. Tasty pizza, nice folks, but nothing special.

I often find myself driving by slice but never had the urge to go inside. After reading all the rave reviews I decided to give it a go. I wasn't disappointed, they have a good and unique selection of pizza and the thin crust is great. I'm not sure if I prefer this place over Regenelli's. I'll have to come back a few more times to decide that.

Excellent pizza! They probably have the best crust and sauce I have ever eaten. I loved the "special". As others have suggested, make your way to the back of the restaurant if you want to have a quiet meal. The front is ok if you don't mind the hustle and bustle of the kitchen. We will definitely be back. Slice is probably my 2nd favorite pizza place in the country, but I lived in NYC for 2 years. You can't beat that. :-)

I am still in shock that we found such a gem hidden in plain sight on St. Charles St. The food was amazing, super-fast, friendly service, and their price fixed dinners, and $5 pitchers make me want this place to open a sister restaurant in San Francisco. It was our first Lunch in New Oreleans, and we stopped by Slice on while walking to the Garden District. We wanted to stay local, fresh, and cheap. We walked by a few different choices, but one look at the breadboard with the daily special of a roasted pepper, spinach, eggplant, and goat cheese panini sealed the deal. I settled on the Muffuletta panini and a sweet tea. The service was quick, friendly and the food arrived promptly, each sandwich flanked with a decent portion of salad, and we dug in. For the record, this was my first Muffuletta in New Orleans, and I did later try the Muffuletta at Napolean House and at Central Grocery. I was instantly in love with this variation. The bread was Crispy and crunchy, the inside was gooey and warm, and had the perfect combination of Italian meats and olive spread. I cannot describe how amazing the sandwich was, and to this day I still think it holds the crown for best Muffuletta in New Orleans, albeit in a very different style than the traditional. My partner had the Veggie Panini, and was very pleased with the whole meal. The salad accompanying the veggie panini was slightly different than with my Muffuletta, but paired very nicely. We spent less than $20 and had a fantastic meal for two... what else could you ask for? Oh yeah... a $5 Pitcher of Domestic beer... Done and Done.

Just got home from my Honeymoon in New Orleans. We spent 5 days there. We went to Commander's Palace, Dooky Chase, Surrey's Cafe, Parkway Bakery and Tavern, Cochon, and Slice Pizzeria. I only went back a second time to one place....yep...I had to have another Slice of the meat lover's pizza. yum yum.

We came back here 2x in 16 days while we were here in New Orleans! I know pizza's not what you're looking for while you're in New Orleans, but they have some great selections of different pizzas that make you want to come back again to try the ones you didn't try the first time! 1. They have an EXTREMELY reasonable and cheap price. Their gourmet slices, which are huge and filling, run around $3 per slice. That's like almost COSTCO pizza prices!!! 2. Their ingredients are noticeably fresh, even to the average joe! Garlic, prosciutto, the cheese! 3. Barbecue shrimp for the win! My coworker and I shared a plate both times and we were in heaven. The bread and the sauce were just perfect complements to each other and the portion was fantastic for the appetizer. 4. Service was great. The waiters were very attentive and kept us well and happy with drinks throughout dinner. I'm from LA and I've been to Pizzeria Mozza and all those snazzy pizza places in LA, but this one is definitely up there without the super expensive prices of those other places. Love Slice!

The ceaser salad was a good size to split and the pizza we chose was the Fresh Pizza which was perfectly cooked. The staff was friendly and really got along well with each other. There is also a full bar in the back. Parker Posey was in there and thanked and complimented on the pizza to the workers while we were there. The staff was pleased. :)

Adolfo A.
The pizza was OK. I've had a lot better. The place smelled like a moldy basement and messed with the experience. Waitstaff continually suggested drinks even though we told them we weren't going to be drinking that night and then kept passing up our table even though the place was nearly empty! Small, cramped, smelly, overly hyped. I would advise if you're going to eat pizza from Slice, order it to go. Would have had a better review if I just took the food home.

Kris A.
Absolutely the best pizza in New Orleans. The place is fast, casual, reasonably priced, and friendly. And of course the pizza is awesome! It is an excellent thin, New York style pizza you can buy by the slice or a whole pie. It is made with very high quality ingredients, a fantastic sauce, and perfect crust. We eat here several times a month. If you like Slice you will also like their sister restaurant, Juan's Flying Burrito.

Pizza has been one of my favorite foods since I was a wee tot, so I'm always looking for new places to try when I travel. Slice was recommended to us by some friends that live in NOLA and I'm so happy we tried it. Why I heart slice: 1. You can customize individual slices of pizza. 2. BACON is a topping choice 3. The crust! It's crisp, thin and holds all the toppings without sagging! 4. The atmosphere is great and the service was top notch I'll see you again one day Slice.....

Located on St. Charles in the Garden District, Slice is a decent place to find pizza and other Italian-like dishes. The crust is made very well, has a great flavor, and is a good balance between crispy and soft. I am not, however, a big fan of the sauce. The pizza sauce is very thin and tastes more like marinara sauce instead of pizza sauce. Despite the runny sauce, I did enjoy the flavor of my pineapple and ham pizza. Oh and they don't make breadsticks...bummer. On another trip I tried the lasagna; again it was just okay. Same sauce. Service is friendly but the wait for food is long...took about 30 minutes (at least) to receive our entrees during both visits. I have not had the opportunity to try other pizza places in NOLA, so for now I will return to Slice, but there is a definite possibility that I might find better.

Nice staff, great food, cheap eats, no wait (if you don't hit it up at peak hours). I'm definitely not a salad person but I really like their arugula and mesclun. Last night we shared a bacon, basil, and garlic pizza-- thin crust, fresh stretchy cheese, piping hot, with lots of crumbled fatty bacon, slices of basil, and whole cloves of roasted garlic--de-fucking-licious, while they accomodated my vegan friend's request for cheeseless garlic bread and sauce. The spot is bigger than you'd think, it stretches out to the back, and there's outdoor seating as well. Prices are good for New Orleans, $7 for half a salad (and it's definitely enough) and a drink (mojito). Their happy hour is a great deal as well.

This is a really good pizza restaurant. My lady friend from chicago would say my assumption of calling it "best in the country" blasphemy, but she agrees it good though. Relatively cheap, and a good amount of options. I would personally recommend the Portofino (unless you hate shrimp) but if you go in, it's a little small.
(5)
Christin D.
I will tell people about this place and how good it was until I'm in my grave. I had a slice of the shrimp-andouille pizza and a create your own slice with goat cheese, caramelized onions, and spinach. All I can say is WOW. A few days later I came back with friends and they confirmed it's awesomeness. The chocolate chip bread pudding was also really great. I'm seriously sad just thinking about it and how I'm not in NOLA anymore. I'm also drooling.

The slices here are really good (and fresh). We got one slice each and shared a bread pudding. A great, no fuss meal under $15. I'll be back.

Stopped here for lunch when we visited NOLA in July. Delicious pizza at a great price! I ordered the Fresh and my husband ordered the Prosciutto, Gorgonzola, and Arugula. Both were amazing but after trying a bite of my hubby's I insisted we share. Friendly staff, particularly the owner. We will be back next time we are in NOLA.

I love love love Slice. Their Meat Lover's pizza with extra cheese is what I always get when I need an instant shot of protein. The soda glasses are always full, they feature local artists on the walls, the waitstaff is always attentive and helpful. (Just don't order espresso!)

I was in NOLA last week on business, had two locals recommended this place, so skipped out on a afternoon business meeting and took the trolley to the "garden district". We ate the Arugula salad which had been highly recommended and can I say the greatest thing ever. We had pizza also, which the crust was to die for. I can hardly wait until business or pleasure brings me back to New Orleans...this will be my first stop!!!

Lisa W.
I love, love, love Slice, especially the St. Charles location. The food is always delicious and the staff is rad. I'm addicted to the the bacon, garlic, & basil pizza but the recent special slice, fried green tomatoes with pancetta (I think) on the white pie was f'*#cking delicious.. I am never disappointed.

Danny K.
I walked into SLICE on a recommendation from a local when I inquired about good local eats. I went on a hot July day and was greeted with air-conditioning and a cold drink. The menu gave good variety but I'm a simple guy when it comes to pizza so I ordered the Trucker Calzone which contains pepperoni, italian sauusage bacon & ham. While waiting I took the opportunity to take in the charm of the restaurant. It's one of those typical trendy-non-franchise places complete with local art on the wall and chalkboards filled with daily specials. I love a place with good service and was plesantly surprised when my waitress refilled my drink before I had even finished my Coke. All the pizza is made to order, unlike many other pizza places that reheat pre-made pizza. My calzone came out pipping hot and boy was it delicious. I wanted to save room for one of their frozen treats but there was literally no more room after eating only 3/4 of my calzone. Come here, you won't be dissapointed.

When I lived in NOLA I would come here often. I LOVE the Fresh pizza!! This is one of the few restaurants in New Orleans where you can find a variety of vegetarian options. On my last trip I of course came to Slice and realized that you can build your own slice! WOW! All this time my roommate and I would always order 2 pizzas and have a ton of leftovers, which really isn't a problem ;-). One time the waiter made a comment about how 2 young ladies were ordering 2 pizzas that would feed a crowd. We all got a good laugh out of it. The staff here is incredibly nice and will crack jokes with you. The environment here is always lively and busy. It's a great casual place to grab some pizza and beer with a few friends.

Service was fast and friendly. Arugula salad was good. G's pasta dish was too oily and okay he said. Mussels made me sick. Very sick; took about 20 minutes before my intestines began convulsions like I had never experienced.......... I am now afraid of their food, no matter what. Everyone else seems to love the pizza, so stay safe and stick to the pizza.

Tiffany S.
Sooo good. Sooo sooo good. Try the alligator sausage. Yum!! We also had the spinach, sundried tomato, and artichoke. Mmmm... The woman who took our to-go order was friendly and shared her suggestions. Thin crust pizza. Quality ingredients (you can taste it). Reminds me of Pie in the Sky in Berkeley, CA.

Nick S.
earlier today my first 5 out of 5, now my second. this is by far the best pizza i have eaten. the crust is sooo delicious. all the ingredients fresh and flavorful. Coolest part, you can order by the slice and make it your way. want 10 slices 10 different ways, go for it. we had just got done eating at another restaurant but heard good things and wanted to stop by here just to try it. so glad we did. i had the special, my wife had the prosciutto gorgonzola arugula, both were amazing, and like i said the crust was WOW, the topping were just plain tasty. we sat at the bar and the bartender was super nice and helpful and very friendly. would come back just to have a drink with this chap.

Michelle D.
i'd like to give slice a bad review because i really can't stand listening to an entire motorhead album while i'm eating. really after i've heard "killed by death" and "ace of spades" i've had my fill of lemmy. the staff all appear to be on drugs and i'm certain one of the waitresses stole my sweater - i left it in the booth, came back to fetch it and it was gone - *shrug*. probably the best pizza in N.O.. indifferent service, never a bad meal.

Katherine J.
Used to be the best pizza place in town but the last two times we've been there, the food has been really mediocre. The thing that has turned me away permanently, is the total lack of concern about the quality of the food, service or the restaurant atmosphere. If you're looking for a bar that serves mediocre pizza this is your place, but if you're looking for a decent pie do yourself a favor and go elsewhere. (Note: this is about the newer Magazine location)

The food, prices, and atmosphere are good. We like it because my daughter can get a plain slice and we can get something different. My only complaint is it is one of those places where they don't write down your order, so mistakes happen. Last time they forgot our appetizer entirely.

I went here over the Halloween weekend, and it was a great experience. I thought this place would be packed and service would bad, but it wasn't. My group of 4 was promptly seated, the waitress was sweet and our food came out hot and well made. I have been told about their banana bread pudding, that it was a must try. When I went, they didn't have that, they had a plum bread pudding instead. Many months later, I still remember how delicious it was.

Karen Z.
A good salad, tasty slice and reasonable price. Had the bacon, basil and garlic pizza (gracias, Yelpers!) and it was great. Hip atmosphere. A few tables on the sidewalk. We opted for outdoor seating because the indoor section was too cold. If I lived here, I'd probably become a regular here. :)

My caprese salad was barely edible, Moz and tomatoes were hard, the balsamic vinaigrette was like tar and was blech. The calzone, in my spawn 1's opinion: "Meh" and I quote spawn 2: "I only ate 2 slices of the pizza b/c I was starving, I didn't like it and the crust was so thin all the topping fell off everytime I tried to eat it." I've been here before and things were better, I'll give it another go and hopefully I can up the stars on my next visit.

Typical of a tourist trap craphole, although the Slice on Magazine is great. Ingredients seem above average but a lazy crew works this one. Slice of pizza was really old, they threw my drink away when I went to the bathroom, little things that say "I don't care and I don't have to." So many better places nearby.

Ashley C.
I visited Slice wanting some good pizza while in NOLA for a conference. The service was fantastic - just the right amount of attention. I was sitting by myself, but my server didn't make me feel like I was "taking up a table" I ordered a surprise calzone and it was absolutely delicious. I waited about 25 minutes for it, which just made me convinced they really did just make it. It had sausage, tomatoes, an unbelievable amount of cheese, spinach, and more. It was a perfect size - I got full about 3/4ths of the way through. I eavesdropped on the servers and cooks who chatted an equal mix of business and real life. They seemed to really enjoy working together, but ever let work go undone. Reasonable prices, great atmosphere. If you're looking for a great place to grab a pizza I highly recommend Slice.

Eileen Z.
I'm still a fan! my "go to" place for a night out with my daughter. I can feel like a grown up and still go to a place that she will love. A great night out options. I LOVE the arugula salad its one of the best IMO. a bowl overflowing with fresh arugula a splash of lemon and olive oil and salt and pepper with a few slices of pecorino, just hits the spot for me. For pizza she gets the cheese slice and I get the prosciutto, gorgonzola, and arugula. There is seriously enough arugula on here to count as a salad and the flavors merry beautifully. I prefer the Magazine location on weeknights and St. Charles on a weekend day trip for atmosphere purposes, both are excellent!

Christine D.
On subsequent visits Slice has made up for its first-time awkwardness. And, truthfully, no kind of mediocre service could keep me away from the amazingness that is the "fresh" pizza. The "Fresh" pizza is so good i considered taking one home, just for the next morning, in case i woke up hungry. The fresh pie comes without any sauce but the mozzarella is piled on. MMM. Then there are tomato slices and fresh basil all on top. I can't do it justice with words. Every one of their salads is good, but a little expensive for the size. The waitresses (i've only had ladies) have all been more welcoming than my first visit. Yesterday they even offered me crostini (i'm not cool with paying for bread before a meal) to stave off my crazed-monster look i get when i'm low on foods. My final service comment is that i hate when they bring you the bill half-way through your meal!!! What if you wanted to order another drink? Or a dessert even?! I understand that they're being proactive or whatever but it's really one of the rudest things you can do to someone enjoying their meal- and it's happened to me at Slice over and over. Which is why I can't review their desserts. So, Slice is getting a better review this time because maybe the staff were having a bad night my first time around. But, I must say, it's a little unnerving that there are a few (3 or 4) children running (literally running) back and forth through this little place. I wanted to grab one and shout "that's enough!" before he knocked into someone's beer or splattered some marinara everywhere.

Marielle S.
I had actually never eaten here when my boyfriend brought me to this place a few months back. I got some kind of calzone that was really salty and cheesy. The cheese wasn't bad, but it was a little too salty for my liking. Also, we went on a Saturday night, and although they weren't insanely packed, it took them forever to get us our order. I would go back again (my rule is to try a place twice, unless the food is horrible), but I would be more careful about what I order (when they call something "meaty", they mean it!).

Delish pizza and Salads. Ate here twice and could have eaten here again. So yummy, and pretty quick. I am from New York and I can honestly say... This pizza is BETTER. Not greasy... full of flavor. Yumm!

Luca P.
I had the special slice (which was loaded with baked potato, garlic, cheese, chives and optional bacon) and it was fantastic. Now this is not a thick slice, on the contrary. I'd say it's a bit costly for such a teeny slice (hence the 4 stars) but it tasted very good. Their Italian Soda is awesome too.

Donald H.
Ordered a medium special deluxe and a pitcher of Abita. What an excellent combo. Well the pizza was way better than anything we have in northern Indiana. The Abita was cold and fresh and helped numb my senses as I wolfed down 5 slices, while my wife could barely finish her 3rd. The servers were extremely friendly as well as all the staff acknowledged our leaving and thanked us for dining there. Way cool, friendly people. The back room was really warm when we got there, no big deal they kicked the air up a notch for us immediately. Perfect comfort... A lot of room to sit inside and a few tables outside. Highly recommend this place as a must eat at if your craving pizza. Great environment with great people working there.

Eric S.
Good pizza with great toppings, not sure the real name but i call it a slice of white. Pretty good, not greasy cooked perfect, and i love there slice of meat. I got a slice with Alligator sausage the other day it had corn and peppers with some green onions that was great. I have had there shrimp and Broccoli pasta which was awesome, but last couple times i have been there i was in a rush and didn't have time to enjoy. People there are really nice, and the food is good, and pretty cheap. Parking sucks but what can you expect on St Charles. I haven't had pizza better then this in New Orleans yet so when im uptown or even downtown i like to swing by for a slice of pie. Ow they started serving Popsicle wife had one she loved it, had chunks of fruits, its in a deep freezer by the front door with bunch of different flava's

It is my hypothesis that people who speak well of this place are either desperate or have never experienced pizza as it meant to be experienced. I enjoy a thin crust as much as the next (pizza) freak, & as many reviewers have already pointed out, this is Slice's purported speciality. However, I expect my thin crust to be thicker and more delicious than, say, a manilla envelope spread with garlic butter. I'd also prefer that the cheese not jump ship in one massive slithery scab before I've taken the first bite. At the very least, give me more than 3 pieces of wilted basil, and this on a "Fresh" slice, the description of which names basil as a main ingredient. There is clearly a pizza crisis happening in New Orleans. But it doesn't end there: $8 for a bbq shrimp "shared plate" that was mostly bread. $12 for a pitcher of very average beer, which we unsuspectingly agreed to at our waiter's suggestion. As for atmosphere, I'd sit in the belly of a whale for a good meal, but I gotta say they didn't do themselves any favors with the decor. It looks like a Boston College campus bar c.1999.

Donovan F.
My preferred pizza spot in my neighborhood. Sometimes I'll crave their bacon/basil/garlic pizzas. Great toppings, great crust. Also, whenever I walk past the restaurant, I always spy on their front sidewalk board for menu items or specials that catch my eye and interest. I've had pretty much all their pizza and salad offerings (with nothing but positives to say about that), but I've yet to try any pasta dishes, so I have no comment on that. Is it the best pizza in the LGD? I've never put that to any scientific test. SO long as they keep me happy with their offerings, I have no reason to stray.

I love this place. The calzones are the best I ever had, the pizza is very good and everything is made from scratch. The desserts are okay, but just a bit too heavy after a good Italian meal. Regular's Tip: If you get the salad, ask for the dressing on the side.

Wow, a good tasting pizza in NOLA. I would have gave it five but they don't deliver and they kinda skimped on the pepperoni. Really was a darn good pie though.

Had a great meal here! Bf and I were waiting to watch the Krewe of Druids on St. Charles Street and were looking for a place to eat. I figured we should check out Slice since it was rated so highly. I was not disappointed. We came during happy hour and took advantage of their $2 Abita Amber and $5 mussels. The mussels were served in a wine sauce and was delicious. I had a slice of shrimp etoufee pizza and bf had the muffaletta panini. The pizza was awesome! Seriously, it was one of the best pizzas I've ever had. It was a huge slice of pizza loaded with shrimp, corn, tomatoes, and caramelized onions. The crust was crispy, not soggy, even with all those toppings. Bf also enjoyed his panini. We finished off our meal with a king cake pudding which was recommended by our waitress. It was delicious...a super sweet bread pudding. The whole meal was great and our bill including tax and 20%+ tip was a little over $35.

I have such a crush on Slice! Wine Wednesdays hooked me in, distinctive toppings and toasty crust kept me coming back. This location in particular is comfy with groovy music and super nice staff. If pizza was actually a food category, I'd be in big trouble.

Holy Moly! Best pizza in the Garden District! Was in NOLA for our honeymoon in Jan and new hubby (see his review..Jeffery M.) wanted a break from the culinary Cajun madness I was on, so we yelped pizza joints near our hotel on St. Charles and this place popped up. Eager to continue the gluttony of food and drink that filled our honeymoon, we ordered take out. Hubby got a slice of the meat pizza and I got a slice of the garlic, anduille sausage pizza, along with a hot cap and red velvet cupcake. Whoa! The pizza was thin crust, smelled great had a sweetish sauce and were huge! I think we paid about $2.50 a slice. The red velvet cupcake was perfect..not too sweet. We loved this place so much, we went twice!! The cap held up even after rewarming it up and drinking it the next morning! The next time we went, we sat down and ate..hubby got the calzone and it was massive! I got a slice of white pizza and a house salad. his was the best house salad I have ever had!!! It had sliced green olives and red onions..it was lovely! We were going to purchase t-shirts (we do that with eateries we really like) but the pickings were slim.

Chrissy J.
Very happy we came here. Our first night visiting New Orleans, we passed so many scummy-looking restaurants. We just wanted to get some decent food before bed. Yelp helped up find Slice, right by our hotel. We knew it must be a good place since it was more full than the other places we had peeked in to, and we were so pleased! Pizza was great, and we were so excited that the beer list exceeded the usual bud and miller lite. Service was very good too. They made a mistake on our order, but sent the correct meal out as soon as they could and took it off our bill. So glad to have found this place!

Slice is absolutely delicious. Kind of artisan pizzas. I love the location on St. Charles, too. The only reason I'm not giving a five star review is because you really do have to pay for the quality. Normally that's not a problem for me, but we're talking about pizza here. That said, it's still totally worth going.

Ryan S.
The Trucker Calzone was very good and probably deserves to be 4 stars. However when we ordered for delivery they said 40 minutes and it was over an hour and a half before it arrived- then once we got into our hotel room we discovered that we did not receive any utensils or napkins.

So is pizza without cheese still pizza? Some people tell me NO! Anyway, I've had cheeseless pizza from Slice several times and I can say they are delicious enough so that I really don't much mourn over the lack of dairy content. And if you eat cheese - all the better! My friends seem to all adore Slice so we've had several birthday celebrations, random get togethers there. They're pretty awesome about accommodating larger parties, but it doesn't hurt to notify them beforehand. That being said, I usually opt for the salad anyway, because I don't know, I guess I'm never really THAT hungry when I actually dine-in and no one really wants to share a cheeseless pizza with me (meanies). But no seriously, the salads are A-OK, but naturally, being that I eat salads everywhere, I've had better! They have a modest selection of beers on tap and a full bar in the back. Service is good, not great, but good. This place obviously isn't optimal if you're a vegan, but for a vegetarian - let the good times roll. I've heard many glowing reviews about their white pizza (? whatever it is). It's principally a pizza joint so if you're a pizza joint, definitely stop by. Just say no to Domino's!

Excellent pizza, good atmosphere and good pricing. The meat lovers slice was piled high with meat and was delivered popping hot. The bacon, basil, and garlic was masterful. The basil had a bite to it, which was refreshing. The do have artesian cheeses but frankly i don't think i would order cheeses from this establishment due to the pub type atmosphere. Overall excellent like an oral utopia!

Wow, it sure is difficult to find anything sour about this pizza haven. It's located right on St. Charles Ave., next to the Avenue Garden Hotel. Now that I think about it, I believe that particular hotel has a suite located just above the pizza parlor. Ahh, the Kensington suite. What a wild room, complete with sculpted statues, an Austin Powers-esque bed and mirrored ceilings....but, that story is for another day! I found Slice in the summer of 2005 and I've not found any pizza houses in the city that compare. The pizzas are always made fresh, have a great flavor and are reminiscent of the NY style. The big difference I see here, though, is the more gourmet feel that Slice adds to their pies. Plus, you probably won't find a pizza in NY with andouille sausage! They have such an eclectic selection, too. My personal favorite has always been the prosciutto, gorgonzola and arugula pizza pie from their specialty portion of the menu. Just for the record, I love cheese. I mean, like a lot. This particular pie has always cured me when I'm in a frenzy for cheese! Slice doesn't just serve pizza, though. They offer other treats in the form of fresh salads, poboys, subs, paninis, various pasta dishes and absolutely delishus calzones! OMG, the calzones are so good. I warn you, though, they are big for one person to eat. They come about the size of a spare tire that you'd find in your trunk (cuz' there's junk in there!) and stuffed with enough cheese to plug up an African elephant. Man, I'm getting hungry just thinking about this! The restaurant is shaped like a shotgun house in that it runs deep, not wide. To the rear of the restaurant, you'll find more cozy booths and a full bar to the right, stocked with all the classic beverages that one would require. They have a happy hour, I believe from 4-6 PM. In that time, certain drinks from the bar and all appetizers are half price. Not bad, especially if you're looking to grab a bite after work. In all, I only have a suggestion or two for people thinking of checking out the joint. First, the entire restaurant is not very big and because it is so good, it fills up pretty fast, especially on the weekends. My suggestion is that you get there early enough to avoid the line that's usually always just inside the door. Also, don't try to bring large groups of people with you because the seating is limited and you probably won't all be able to sit together. The food is terrific, made well and always fresh, the staff are courteous and attentive, the ambience is lively....what more could you ask for?

This is pretty much my favorite pizza joint in the city of NOLa. For the price, it is all good. One of tonight's specials was the Blue Marlin panini: delicious Gulf fish (blue marlin), arugula pesto, smoked mozzarella, spinach, sun-dried tomatoes. Quite tasty, especially for $8.95+ tax. Also, a couple of weeks ago they renovated the restaurant so that the bar is now in front of the place & the back room now has more tables in the place where the bar was located.

Soo delicious!!!!calzone was gargantuan and the gorgonzola pizza had the right balance of favors.i actually enjoyed this pizza better than in Chicago!!shocking I know.great friendly service too.yummy cheese bread as well!definitely my go to place if I head back to Nola.:)

I like to keep my pizza simple and the Slice pepperoni calzone is as good as it gets. Absolutely delicious and at under $10 it is a filling lower cost lunch on the Avenue.

The location is great and just what I needed after a long drive from Houston. With that said, the drinks are meh, the chocolate chip bread pudding was greasy with a slight bitter aftertaste but the ravioli was outstanding! The service there was pretty good.

What can I say that hasn't already been said of this place. It's exceptional. The concept, a single slice of pie any style you want to include gourmet toppings at a reasonable price, is awesome. Price is right, beer is cold, food is prepared very well. Never been disappointed by this place, from the salads to the pie.

I go here fairly often during the week, and I'd suggest this is definitely the time to go. The daily drink specials are hard to beat. One day is half price bottle wine, and another is half price pitchers of beers. Pretty unbeatable. The pizza isn't amazing, but as far as New Orleans pizza goes, it is pretty good. Although the crust is a little too hard/crunchy for me. But they definitely make up for this with quality toppings (prosciutto, artichoke hearts, house made mozzarella, etc.), and interesting combinations for their full pies. Always great service and great atmosphere, and for the price point (especially during the week if you want a drink) it hits the spot.

THE POWER OF SLICE COMPELS YOU! THE POWER OF SLICE COMPELS YOU! :::puts down crucifix::: New Orleans is not a town known for it's amazing pizza joints. I've made peace with that since I live near/often go into New York City for what is considered to be the country's best Italian pies (shut up Chicago, no one wants to hear any of your deep-dish LIP!). I've resigned myself to all the amazing food New Orleans is known for that I cannot get back home, except for once. I had a craving for Pizza and nothing else would do. Slice was on my list since it was (at that time, not sure if it still is) somewhat affiliated with Juan's Flying Burrito which I luuuurve, so I hopped the streetcar, rode it down St.Charles and tripped off at the stop right near Slice. The Pizza? It's about as good as you've got, which isn't as good as I can get (but y'all can rub beignets and chicory coffee in my face daily as I eat a crappy donut and motor oil blend from Dunkin' Donuts). The staff was friendly, the salads were fresh and decently sized and they had a pretty rad wine special. All in all a successful craving satiated, and a bank account not too terribly dented.

I have yet to have a SLICE that I do not like if "Slice's" pizza. No matter what toppings you get, you will love what you get. Service is good and atmosphere is fun! Good to get pizza to-go or for a sit-down dinner which I love! I can't wait to try this for game days!

Meredith A.
One of the last places I dined at while visiting New Orleans. I love thin crust pizza so I thought I would try this place out. I found that the pizza was very good. I wasn't that hungry so I was excited I could just get one slice. The best part about this place is that listed on the drink menu was mimosas. Most places only list these for breakfast or brunch and I like to drink these at all times. Usually I have to be that weirdo asking about mimosas at dinner time(Don't judge me. I like frou-frou drinks). But here I knew I would be able to get my mimosa with my pizza without hassle. So I was able to enjoy two of my favorite things that usually aren't together in one place. This is like a nicer pizza restaurant. It has really good food and am able to get just a slice which is great for me.

I ordered enough food for 3 people, but I figured I'm only in town for a few days and I wanted to try the best of what NOLA Cuisine has to offer. I had white pizza with basil and smoked bacon, a mussels appetizer, a bowl of gumbo, and a greek salad. All was delicious, and made me wish my stomach was bigger! Seemed to be popular with younger/university student crowd, but wasn't lacking in ambiance or cleanliness. My waitress was super friendly and helpful. Tip: come for a late lunch/early dinner and profit from their fab happy hour specials.

Just back form Slice and we are not sure if Yelp reviews take price into consideration or not but, while it was not expensive (indeed beers were very reasonable and their 1/2 price bloody mary sunday was a bargain), nothing was outstanding. All was perfectly adequate. (Oh except the Bruschetta which stone cold on cold white bread slices was so bad that I dumped the mushroom bits into my Shrimp Stew -- which seemed heavy on tomatoes and light on shrimp -- to warm them up and give them purpose.) We concluded we would have done better at the Blind Pelican pub across the street.

Went there with some friends not too long ago, and I enjoyed it a lot. The pizzas are huge, yes, but they are also delicious. I can't deny that at all. I loved every bite that I was able to finish and the rest went home with me. Then the next day it was darn good too. I'm actually wanting to go back now since this review has it on my mind. Huh! Okay time to make plans to go there again. Lol Well like I said, "I enjoyed it a lot."

Slice used to be one of my favorite quick meals in NOLA, but I've found that the quality of pies has been a bit inconsistent. Slice's pies now seem to all have a very thick, chewy crust that's a far cry from the thinner-crusted pies they used to churn out on a regular basis. Overdoing the cheese and undercooking pizzas also seems to be an issue, further complicated when you've added toppings. I've found that individual slices are often an acceptable remedy, as they seem more thoroughly cooked and less heavy on the cheese. You can also order your pie on the side of well done, and they'll be happy to accommodate your request. That all being said, Slice's sauce is among my favorites, and they'll usually offer you some on the side if you're a tomato fanatic like I am. The specialty pizzas offer great and slightly unexpected combinations of toppings that turn out to be better than imagined, especially the bacon, basil, and garlic pie. The mesclun is my favorite salad, with always-fresh berries, walnuts, and goat cheese, although the quality of the greens isn't always the greatest. I wish they still offered the balsamic vinaigrette with this salad, as now you're left to add your own combo of oil and vinegar. Lastly, Slice has wonderful happy hour specials, and it's a great place to gather with a medium-sized group after work.

Slice does both standard and eccentric pizza offerings by the pie or slice. I had 2 slices: Andouille and shrimp, prosciutto Gorgonzola and arugula. Excellent, both. The Greek pizza was also calling. The daily special included a salmon with capers. Notes - Nobody working there was over 30, so it had a young, artistic, hip vibe. Really relaxed and fun to watch young artisans (the cooks) do pizza so well. - Wine menu included around 20 selections by the glass or bottle, which ran $24-$44/bottle. - Full bar with 3-5 selections of each spirits, ranging from well to super premium. - Service was excellent at 6pm on a Thursday, not terribly crowded, but constant flow of customers. - If you're a tourist, its right off of the St. Charles Street Car line next to VooDoo BBQ (also good). Perfect place for a light lunch. I would follow it up with a stop by Creole Creamery, a bit further up the St Charles line, off of Prytania in the UGD. - Hours 11 am to 11 pm

I know this is going to seem unlikely but believe it or not, Slice is probably one of my favorite restaurants in New Orleans.... yeah, I know right... a pizza joint *rolls eyes* But there's something about this place that just does it for me. I love the decor, it's casual, modern and comfortable and they always showcase the work of really cool local artists (mostly photographers). The menu is varied (not like most of your pizza joints that only give typical calzone/pizza options) and I have to say one of my favorite dishes is the Mesclun Salad, IT'S OUT OF THIS WORLD!! A sweet the mixture of berries, with goat cheese and vinaigrette, absolutely blissful, tastes like seduction. The Slices are huge and super reasonably priced considering they use fresh ingredients. My favorite night is half-priced bottle of wine Tuesday nights, and they serve Famega! (a delightful green grape wine that goes really well with pizza) As if this weren't enough, if you are a hipster like myself you'll love all the eye candy that works here (boys and girls alike ;)

I love slice. I love slice for their white pizza with basil. I love slice for their giant pieces at small prices. I love slice for their italian cream sodas. I love slice for being open lunch and dinner. Yep. This pizza is done with flavorful ingredients and the white pizza is the closest I can get to the way we always had it on visits to jersey. Hush... the white pizza and hoagies in jersey are fanastic (and let's not forget about water ice or the fact the italian ice is a completely different animal) even if the jersey shore crew makes me either want to murder them or blind myself in order to forget what a bad name they give the place.... Umm... anyway.... I've never been disapointed in the fare or with getting on of those wodden booths in the much quiter back room. Being up in the front is always an adventure too being that close to the open pizza staff always makes for a great dining experience. Go... enjoy yourself... relax... this is what real pizza done well is all about.

I adore Slice, and I go there every time I get the opportunity. It's nice to sit in the restaurant and watch all the people come and go. Service inside is very good. When you have a Slice craving but can't sit a spell, you can always pick up your order to go. Favorite pizza: Prosciutto Arugula Gorgonzola. The pastas are also very well cooked and delicious. I highly recommend the aglio olio pasta.

This is my go-to restaurant for anytime I want to eat out. I'm pretty sure my wife gets tired of me always suggesting we go. I never get sick of it and don't think I ever will. The pizza is delicious. $2 PBRs can't be beat. $5 Abita Amber pitchers during happy hour. Hip atmosphere. Everything about this place is great, especially the price. I take all of my friends who visit from out of town here. I'm pretty sure they're getting tired of it too. I don't understand how.

I'm pretty pumped that I'll get a free glass of wine with my next check in. I wish it were beer, but hey I'll give it away. Some of the gals and I like to gab here on Mondays and pretend like we are on Sex in the City. (I'm Charlotte.) We like it because the bill is usually pretty low and place is quiet enough to hear ourselves blab. They offer 1/2 price appetizers and beer and wine specials on Mondays until 6pm, so we pop in after work. Even with regular menu prices you can get a filling slice of pizza for around $4 and a salad with berries for around $3.50. An added bonus? The waitstaff is attentive, friendly, and kinda cute.

Found this place after looking at Yelp reviews and were not disappointed. We ate here while riding the St. Charles streetcar. This was our first stop before heading to the Garden District and the Audubon Park. I had a muffaletta and my boyfriend had a slice of the shrimp and andouille sausage pizza. The muffaletta was awesome and not overly huge or out of control in size. The pizza divine - tasty and unique with the special regional flavors. The service was great and they kept the ice tea coming - refills are key. The decor was comfortable and cool and the location was perfect. Would definitely go back.

My GO-TO pizza place in NOLA. You can't get pizza any better than this. It's impressive and the combinations of pizzas they have are excellent. The name of the establishment represents how they sell their pizzas, by the SLICE unlike most places. Upon entering you seat yourself and the open kitchen is great actually. There are tables in the front, booths in the middle and a bar in the back somewhat like a pub type atmosphere. The wait staff is always friendly and prompt. You can never leave here unhappy!

I was in New Orleans for business and didn't want to deal with the craziness of the French Quarter for dinner. After reading a few reviews, I picked Slice. Service was good and very friendly. I started with the mesclun salad with berries and goat cheese. It was excellent. I could have just eaten that. What I liked about Slice is that you could order individual slices -- and it's not just a heated piece of pizza with toppings thrown on top. I had the proscuitto/arugula and the fresh. Both was quite tasty. Would definitely return.

Jazmin M.
This place was really, really good. Not as good as New York slice but still really awesome. We ordered the 18 inch Special pizza which was huge for only two people and a half serving of the lasagna. I usually hate lasagna that isn't homemade but I decided to take a risk and order this and I was completely satisfied with my decision. The ambiance, the food and the experience overall was really great. I'll definitely be back.

I was surprised when I first entered this establishment. The waitress reminded me of the spirit of the Austin Texas locals and the cook had HUGE hair that was carefully pulled back. The restrooms were very clean minus an accumulation of dust dirt on the window. The staff was attentive and the beverages were cold. My husband has has several slices of pizza at different times all he enjoyed. (Meatlovers, Bacon Basil and Garlic, and the Meat Lovers). I have had the pasta with white sauce and salmon. This was a very rich and tastey dish. However should I care to have it again I would ask for the sauce on the side. I have also tried the Wicked Garden calzone it is crusty and bursting with cheese. I wish the Magazine location would have the specials provided at St Charles location. Both locations were excellent! We will be frequent visitors of this establishment. Especially since there is an unobstructed view int the kitchen.

Sunny Dawn S.
The pizza is fabulous. The shrimp/andouille is incredible. I've never had a bad food experience here, but the service to get to-go pizza around lunch time is ridiculous. I've waiting half an hour both times I've gone to pick up to-go. They seem unconcerned. I won't return for take out, but I'm sure I'll give in to the tempting pizza again in the near future.

Went there twice on a recent trip down to New Orleans. This place serves thin crust specialty pizzas as well as the classics, sandwiches, salads and pastas. I have tried both their veggie and their spinach, sun dried tomato, artichoke pizza and both were really good. The veggie pie had ample veggies that were all flavorful. The combination was good, but I thought the green olives were a little overpowering (even more so than the kalamata olives). I thought the spinach, sun dried tomato and artichoke pie was better, with a good amount of ingredients that didn't really overpower one another. Both were on thin crusts and neither pie was greasy. I'm sad I never got to try any of their desserts as their tiramisu and bread pudding looked promising. I believe my favorite part of the whole experience was walking into the bathroom and finding a painting on the wall of Van Gogh's Starry Night with pizza pies in place of the bright round stars. I got to speak to the worker who had painted it, and he said he was working on a Salvador Dali one in the men's restroom! If it had been finished at the time, I would have sneaked into the men's bathroom to snap a pic...of the painting. Best bathroom surprise EVER. So check this place out for the pizza, the beer, and definitely for the restrooms!

As good as it gets! Pizza is made to order and fantastic. I had a spinach salad with salmon and it was the bomb! Fresh crisp greens, Prosciutto bacon, Gorgonzola, Pecans, with a sweet succulent salmon, and a perfectly balanced Balsamic Vinaigrette. We had dessert also and that was in my top 5. A made on the premises, Tiramisu that had the most beautiful sweet cream top, and was flavorful all the way to the bottom of the very large cup it was served in. Cocktails were large and hardy. The price was affordable. Our waiter was personable and informative. Thank you Walker, for a very nice time. To quote Walker," We are serious about food here." Indeed they are. A really BIG thumbs up for "Slice", on St. Charles.

Kristin B.
I have lived many places, and one thing is for sure - NOLA doesn't really "do" pizza. However, given that Slice is some of the best pizza that I have ever eaten in my life, I feel that NOLA should rethink this immediately. Slice is my favorite spot in NOLA. I am there a few times a month, and I don't even like pizza all that much. I am literally addicted to the blue cheese, proscuitto, and arugula pizza, although the greek with anchovies runs a close second. You know though, scratch that - EVERY kind of pizza that I have ever had there was spot-on. Their salads are delicious (the ceasar dressing is superb) and they have a ton of great beers. I've come to love Slice pizza more than po'boys, and that is a hard battle to win, people.

Anthony C.
Growing up in New Jersey, I have fond memories of getting slices of pizza for a dollars from the local pizzeria. Slice is the closing thing I've had to the real thing since I moved to the South. While I usually order a plain slice, I've heard all their more exotic slices are just as delicious. I highly recommend Slice (on St. Charles, I had a bad experience with the Magazine one) to any and everyone who loves great food at a low price.

Sam C.
I LOVE SLICE. The thin crust is not too crispy, but the crusty crust outside is so great. They use super high quality ingredients, and it's so delicious! Try the prosciutto arugula slice, or the meaty one, or the shrimp and andouille sausage one... Even was extremely surprised at how good the appetizers are (BBQ shrimp crostinis, the BMT salads). Low priced and a fun place.

Adam S.
There was nothing wrong with this place. I think it was a nice place to grab lunch on Sunday afternoon. Got the cheese bread which was pretty good. I thought the red dipping sauce had a nice flavor to it. Got 3 slices: pepperoni, pepperoni and minced garlic, and pepperoni and carmelized onion. I liked them all. My least favorite was the onion slice because the onions were more soggy than carmelized. Tasted pretty good though. The garlic slice was probably my favorite, but was pretty sparce on the garlic. I would've liked more garlic. The crust is thin with some crunch (I think it has cornmeal in it or something). I also tried a bite of the white slice and the pruscuitto and argula slice. Both were pretty good, but again, not jaw droppingly good or anything. My guess is that this is probably some of the better pizza in town.

Slice has great, heaping, dripping, melty slices of cheesy goodness, topped with whatever your little heart can conjure up. For a gal who doesn't normally eat her crust, there is never a crumb left here on my plate. They also have a wide variety of veggie-friendly options and a great beer/wine list.

As someone from Chicago, I would consider myself a pizza snob. I usually eat deep-dish pizza but the thin crust pizza here is amazing. The types of pizza they have could be comparable to Cali Pizza Kitchen but SLICE is way, Way, WAY better. The fact that I could try their different pizzas in slice-form was an added bonus. The staff were nice and friendly as well. I had two tastey and filling slices for less than $10! I will be back.

I'm from Nevada/California so the South is new for me. The vibe of this place is off the hook. The chef's are bumping tunes and dancing while they cook. Our waiter was super helpful and knowledgable about the beer and the food. Just a good dude. He recommended the BBQ Shrimp app Boy and it was PHENOMENAL. One of the best meals I've ever had. If you come here GET THE PO BOY!!!

How could you take the meatballs off the menu?! I heard 5 people ask and complain about it. BEFORE ME! I only started coming here. I had them 2 times and they are gone!!! WHY?! WHY?! WHY?! WHY?! PLEASE BRING BACK THE MEATBALLS OR WE'LL STOP COMiNG!!!!!! So sad about this... You ruined my Tuesday :(

I ordered the Margherita from Slice on a Sunday afternoon. The delivery time was great, it only took about 30 minutes which I was shocked about. The price I felt was a little high but I'm not complaining because it seems like what most pizzerias are getting to now. I could tell that the pizza was hot before I even opened the box, which is always a plus. The issue came when I opened the box to dive in. The cheese had all melted back together so the slices were very hard to pull apart, ended up having to recut them. Then the pizza was just very flimsy. You could not pick up a slice and just eat it at all. The crust was very thin and soaked all the way through. The flavor was good but overall I wasn't very satisfied with the pizza, may try again eating in their restaurant.

Had this location bookmarked and figured since had the kids with me in NOLA we'd give it a try... kids love pizza... Found it easy on St. Charles, parking was a breeze, found street parking right in front of St. Charles Tavern... when we walked in about 6ish on a Saturday just a couple of people at the bar but we were the only diners.. Lotta pizza for the price.... me and the boy split a medium Meat Lovers and it was plenty for a 16 year old boy with me, the Dad, not having to worry if he was gonna plow through the whole thing.... the baby girl wanted to try white pizza and I was happy that any pizza was offered by the slice... she went with a white slice with bacon and fresh basil and really loved it... However, in my humble opinion, the kids really loved the Garlic Bread with Red Gravy appetizer...I was lucky to get one piece of that garlic bread! Our waitress, didn't get her name but she has 2 6-shooters tattooed on her upper chest, was excellent, friendly and timely... plus the Leinenkugel Summer Shandy they were offering on tap hit the spot! All in all one helluva enjoyable stop and meal and brought it in for a damn reasonable price!

Slices after a late night in the warehouse district- I was sooo excited to see this place and my food. I especially like that you can order all of their specialty pizzas by the slice. Even finished off my meal with a chocolate cookie- because ya'know sometimes you need a cookie. Best.Cookie.Ever!

Keandra R.
I frequent here quite often...possibly two to three times a month. And I love it. The staff is uber friendly and welcoming...and the location is great. The front of the restaurant is kinda setup like a "shotgun" New Orleans style house, but the back has more seating for larger groups. Whether ordering at the bar, getting take out, or having a quick sit down lunch I'm usually pretty pleased. The food....now I can't lie...I usually never venture from a slice and half salad, but it fills you up and for exactly $10.70 you can't be mad. The D'Luxe, Veggie, and Sportsman slices are my fave. The less than 5 star rating comes in for the hit or miss on the salads. The Mescluin salad (petite greens and seasonal fruit) was exceptionally WARM today. It appeared that nothing was refrigerated...not the greens, not the lettuce, not the dressing...NOTHING! And on another occasion I've had a greek salad, while cold, the lettuce was a lime green color. Not green like lettuce should be...so I'm sure I ate a salad that had no nutritional value. Even with those hiccups, its still one of my favorite go to places for a slice. I'll have to venture and try the mussels and the BBQ shrimp po-boy that I see others raving about.

If Iron Maiden is on when you walk through the door you are going really mess up the food to not get five stars from this guy. In all serious Slice is a great place is New Orleans for a slice in a town that typically sells whole pies. Chow down on the broccoli & mushroom while Bruce Dickinson belts out can I play with madness and other metal hits. Local beers, from NOLA brewing and Abita as well as PBR and the like! Enjoy!

While visiting NOLA I went here three times. It was that good, and this is from a Chicago gal who loves her pizza. Service is excellent. Super cute hipster vibe inside. Nice to sit at the bar or really nice to just take it and go. Everything is served within about 15minutes after you order and is fresh with the best ingredients. I had the veggie pizza, their mushroom pizza, their broccoli pizza, their spinach and goat cheese calzone, their meat lovers pizza. All were fantastic. The best of the bunch in my opinion was the all veggie. JUST DO IT AND EAT HERE!

WOW! This meal was awesome. Our waitress, Jessika, was friendly, helpful, i ordered the calzone, which was delightfully made with a white sauce and delicious toppings I chose. it came with steaming-hot (homemade) dipping sauce. My partner had a meat lovers pizza, which (due to the nature of the toppings) was a little salty but tasty but a little soggy-a result of the toppings and sauce. I loved every minute of my experience and look forward to my next visit.

Honestly the best vegan pizza around and only $20 for a large (that is really a large). The crust is so delicious. The sauce is great! I drive from Luling to get this pizza! The servers are always accommodating and helpful with the menu items.

Underwhelmed. Underwhelmed to the point of annoyance. I sat at the bar. I asked, "what kind of pizza do you folks have here?" I always ask this because I LOVE PIZZA. I explained that I am a transplant...I'm used to New York and Boston pizza. Normally that is a conversation starter in and of itself....this bartender is getting married guys. She does not have time to talk about pizza! The response should have been an indication for me to walk away. "uhmm it's pizza. so, you know. it's pizza.Plus I'm getting married so I want to talk about getting married." She didn't say the last part.... Once I asked her to go into a bit more detail ....thin crust? greasy? deep dish? she began reading the ingredients to me. Then the bartender, who is getting married, took my drink order. When I told her that I would just be having a club soda at the moment, I learned that Andrew wasn't drinking for Lent. He might be drinking on St. Patrick's Day. Do I think that counts as not drinking???? The more right I write the more annoyed I am getting. The first slice I got was good. I liked the texture, the cheese...I thought they were a bit stingy on the marinara. I noticed to my chagrin when I placed my order at 5:02 that they had a 2/1 Happy Hour Special. I ordered another piece anyway. This one came out like a weathered shingle. It was burned. I could actually crack the pizza in half. Breakable pizza is sooo 2012. Anyway, I mentioned that the slice was "well done" and she sent it back. The new slice came out.....raw basically. I ate it. She didn't check on me again, so I guess it didn't matter what I felt about the second slice anyway. I will go try another location I guess, but I would not recommend this place, based on the service alone.

Good pizza, good calzones, good ice coffee and pretty location. Server/bartender was hanging out with friends/staff and as personable as she could be I guess. Good first visit. Used a groupon.

We went to Slice twice during our honeymoon because it was really good pizza and it was very close to the B&B we stayed in. We had the same waitress both times and she was very pleasant and efficient. You really get to customize your pizza and even if you only want a few slices, they'll still make it how you want it. The first time I got two slices of a pesto based pizza with caramelized onions, goat cheese and salmon. Mouth wateringly delicious. The next time my husband and I split a pie and unfortunately the waitress told the kitchen a red sauce base when we asked for a white sauce, but we didn't want to waste it so we ate it any way. Still very good. Great little pizza place with a friendly staff and they are also open really late which is nice.

You wouldn't think it, but this pizzeria has the best BBQ shrimp po boy I've ever had. It is plenty rich, but they use quite a bit of Worcester sauce to help cut through all that richness. The shrimp are huge too. I dropped one on the floor and cried. There are a ton on the sandwich, but that didn't make losing one hurt any less. The Pizza is great too, an especially wonderful option during Parade Season. . I'm never really blown away by the food options on St Charles, but this place is a great exception to that. And that BBQ Shrimp PO-boy!

The pizza was greaaaaat!! It's a great spot to chill & eat on you're day off from work lol I didn't have the pasta but the person behind me did & it looked great. They seemed to enjoy it. I'm excited to go back & try it out.

A rarity in my food travels- 5 stars! I have never heard these words from my wife, "don't know how anyone can make an Italian salad taste this good but they have done it!" The pizza was really awesome. A medium pie left my seventeen year old and I full, walking out with two pieces unconsumed. The service was awesome, patient, and friendly. Plus one star for the incredibly attentive and friendly waitress. Heck, they might think about changing New Orleans slogan to the Big Slice because of this place.

Found our way to SLICE on St. Charles! Great food and staff!!! We really enjoyed it!!! Waiter was helpful and staff was helpful getting us back to how to reach our car via bus!!
Update. I have been back 3 times in the last 8 months and its been horrible each time. I dont know whats going on. Looks like they have cut back on quality. And whoever is cooking the pizzas just dont give a damn. The last two times my pizza crust was soggy. I mean saturated, you could squeeze the water out of it literally. I THINK they are putting frozen toppings on and in the cooking process it melts causing the crust to become ...well, just unpleasant. Someone told me that they sent their best workers to the Magazine street location. Probably true since everyone inside now looks really out of it. Im done with this location.

This seems to be the Uptown go-to for pizza, but I've never really understood what the fuss is about. I tried Slice for the first time years ago, dining in at their St. Charles location. I remember being underwhelmed, but not dissatisfied. After seeing a forum on Facebook about the best place for pizza in New Orleans, and seeing all of the Slice voters, I decided to give it another try to change my opinion. Margherita has always been my favorite pizza, so I tried theirs. It's a four cheese take on the margherita. Nope. Entirely too much cheese for what is supposed to be an understated pizza that relies on simple, quality toppings. The crust in the middle of the pizza was soggy from the massive amount of greasy cheese sitting on top of it. I couldn't even taste the basil, which for me, has always been the best part of a good margherita. I had to wonder if it was fresh basil. Sauce and crust were otherwise not notable. Pizza is pizza. You're never really going to be mad at it. But I will continue to wonder what the fuss is about when it comes to Slice.

Great pizzeria! Seemed to be full of locals, which is always a plus. My husband had the meat lovers calzone. Loved it so much, he had it two nights in a row! First time, I tried the penne pasta dish, which was ok, and next time I tried the cheese calzone. My calzone broke while in the oven, so they brought me a piece of cheese pizza to hold me over. Pizza was good, but the calzone was better! Definitely recommend!

The Pizza here is ok. I felt like I was eating a premium version of Dominos Pizza. The reason I gave the place 4 stars is because it makes for a great bar as well as customer service and location is great.

Ugh! That's what I get for not reading Yelp before going to a restaurant. Came here tonight to dine for LASPCA's Pause 4 Paws. Overall not a great experience. Parking- it's on St. Charles with no reserved parking lot like other restaurants around. I parked around the block. No biggie since I could always use the exercise. But I didn't like the two homeless people parked outside that were literally following people when they left. I know it's not their fault, but it's a huge creep factor. They could have stopped the solicitors from sitting outside their establishment then stalking their patrons that happen to carry big purses (empty of cash, btw.) This will definitely prevent any women (or self-preserving men) from eating here. I don't like looking behind me the entire time I'm walking to my car, which was around the block from the place. As soon as I rounded the corner, I just RAN to my car. Food- Ordered the large mesclun salad: mixed greens, fresh goat cheese, crushed pecans, fresh strawberries and blueberries served with a homemade balsamic vinaigrette. It was a yummy salad but definitely wasn't a large portion. I've seen small salads bigger than that (i.e. Midway, Theo's, Katie's-just to name a few) Priced at $9, I was honestly hoping it would fill me up. Not even close. Drinks- ordered the special of the night. Name escapes me but it was basically two shots of bourbon served anyway you like. I'm a simple girl so I opted for a bourbon and coke. Bartender was nice, and the drink was pretty stiff. Didn't need another one the entire meal. For $5, thought it was a steal- especially when it was Maker's Mark. Service- horrendous. Server was quite rude with us from the moment we sat down. We went there for a meeting and was expecting 4-5 people. Half of the party showed up first and we were seated for about 10-15 mins. before more arrived. Not once did he ask to refill our drinks (we had all ordered our drinks from the bar but there was an empty beer glass that could have been refilled with some refreshing deliciousness) nor did he ask if we wanted any appetizers. When the final person got there, he immediately asked if we were ready to order. She hadn't even sat down at that point. So we asked for 5 mins. which he huffed then stomped away. When we were done with our food, he asked if we were ready for the bill. No questions of dessert or salad. And even though our party only ended up being 4 people, he still added a gratuity on there! We were all quite surprised since restaurants don't usually add a grat for parties smaller than 6. Not sure why he felt a need to express his frustrations on his tables. So this experience definitely soured this location for me. From here on, think I'm going to stick to the Magazine location. And just get their pizza or that BBQ shrimp po-boy everyone is raving about.

My review of this Slice will be remarkably similar to my review of the Magazine location. Why? Because despite several trips here, I cannot get enough of their BBQ shrimp po boy. This location seems smaller than the Magazine location. There are booths along the wall and three tables up toward the front. The tables in the front are somewhat close together so if the restaurant is full you should expect to hear your neighboring tables conversations. Service was very good. Our server was friendly, had a sense of humor and was very prompt. As far as service goes, it was better at this location. Parking is still an issue, but it is at most uptown restaurants. I actually parked in the Houston's lot even though several signs warned me not to. I don't suggest you do that in case you get towed, I don't want the blame. The real reason you should visit is the BBQ shrimp po boy. Trust me on this. It is so good that you will try and find a way to soak up all of the excess sauce. I used a form and knife to cut my bread at the end, flipped it over and sopped it all up. Use my method, or devise your own, but you will want this sauce. On this visit one of the group ordered a pizza. It looked and smelled amazing. One of these days I will have to actually try the pizza. Until then I will keep enjoying that po boy.

Came here twice for lunch during my 15 day boondoggle in NOLA. 11:45 on a weekday it was half packed and was able to get in and out in 45 minutes. $12 for a slice, a small salad, water and tip! Italian salad was hearty with lots of ingredients. A little salty (lots of olives) for my California taste buds but good enough that I ordered it both times. Between the meat lovers slice and the special slice w shrimp, I would rank the special higher. Toppings were fresh and the thin crust was slightly crunchy just like it should be. The decor is an after thought and the feel is old, but I came here for the food. Interesting tho ... I didn't know that pizza grew on trees as the wall paper in the bathroom suggest!!! I better read Wikipedia more often! 4 stars for the food quality. 3 stars for the service. 2 stars for atmosphere. Would come here again but wouldn't go too much out of my way.

We split a half salad and a medium Siciliana Marinara pizza and it was too much food. The pizza was cooked to perfection with a nice chew to the crust... not to mention to abundance of great fresh peppery arugula that topped the pizza. Service was quick and attentive. Decent selection on tap, as well.

Brent C.
Skip the high priced tourist traps on Bourbon Street and come here instead for delicious, local pizza. The atmosphere is casual but clean, and the pizza has never disappointed us. We come to New Orleans at least once each year, and Slice is always on our short list of restaurants where we have to eat.

After being on the road for 4 hours, the BF and I we were in the mood for some good thin crust pizza. I love Slice and hadn't been in ages, and he had never been, so away we went. The atmosphere at Slice is a little off being that it's a really long and narrow space. That aspect doesn't bother me, it just feels...odd. The service at Slice is always friendly and attentive. No complaints. I really love the pizza at Slice! I LOVE LOVE LOVE how many choices you have that you can order by the slice. We got the standard Pepperoni, the BBG which was a white pizza with smoked bacon, fresh basil, roasted and fresh garlic, the PGA which was procuitto di parma, imported gorgonzola, organic arugula, and the specialty Mac n' Cheese pizza, which had pasta and a ton of bacon and cheese on it. I wasn't sure how that would work for a pizza, but the server said it was amazing. He was right. My boyfriend wasn't a huge fan of the PGA, but he loved the BBG. I thought they were all yummalicious. The prices are extremely reasonable. We got two slices of pizza each, we shared an Italian salad, I had 2 mimosas, and my BF had 2 beers, and our bill was $31! Can I say again how much I love Slice? If I had one complain, the only one would be that I would've liked my pizza to be hotter. I like my food to be insanely hot. Tip: Mimosas are $3.50 all day on Sundays!

Christopher A.
A great dive pizzeria. Twice I got the Sportsman, once as a slice and again as a calzone. This was easily the best slice of pizza I can remember. The garlic bread is also amazing. The staff is very friendly and the atmosphere is rough and kind of hipster-y, but in a good way. This is the type of pizza joint you want to visit. It's also right next door to The Streetcar Inn, so definitely hit it up if you're staying there.

Cathy R.
It's a shame that this place has such mixed reviews. Thankfully I had a great experience. This was our part 1 of 2 for lunch, and we made it apparent to our waitress, and she didn't mind at all. Most other servers look so disappointed to find that we would each only order 1 slice, but she was nice enough to even offer to have each of our slices cut in half so that sharing was easier. We had the PGA and Sportsman's Paradise. I preferred the PGA, as the shrimp on the Sportsman's Paradise seemed to be slightly overcooked to me. I did enjoy the crunch and flavor of the crust. The toppings overall worked well together. If only I lived much closer to this place...I would go at least once a week to take advantage of the fact that they offer their specialty pizzas by the slice!

Leslie M.
It seems rumours of Slice's decline are true. I was informed by the stoned-sounding person who answered the phone that delivery would be 1 hour, and then that their delivery minimum has increased to $15. I was going to get the spaghetti and meatballs out of sheer laziness, as I have before; their pizza has become increasingly flavorless. Oh, well, there's now Dolce Vita!

This location of Slice Pizzeria is smaller than the one on Magazine Street. It feels pretty crowded and the tables are too close to one another. I don't like that neighboring diners can hear my conversation. However, Slice Pizzeria makes the best BBQ shrimp poboy that I've ever had so I jumped at the chance to have lunch with a few fellow Yelpers here and I'd jump at the chance to do it again. Of course, I ordered the BBQ shrimp poboy and savored every single bite of it. It's really the very best poboy I've ever had of its kind. I also ordered a salad on this visit. Mesclun Salad with balsamic vinergrette...petite greens, goat cheese, pecans, fresh berries. It was delicious as well. I love Slice and honestly if the restaurant was in a cardboard box, I'd still go for that BBQ shrimp poboy. My preferred location is the one on Magazine, though. If you haven't tried that poboy, do yourself a favor and order one. You're welcome.

Our second time here this week while visiting NOLA. Very close to our hotel so made it easy. But if not it would still be worth it. Large pizza was great for family of four. We are pizza snobs and it didn't disappoint. My daughters had to have the Brookie a la mode and it was very tasty. The staff has been super friendly. A great spot.
(5)
Melissa H.
This is such a perfect pizza dive. The pies are spectacular, with high quality toppings and the magic balance of crispy/chewy in their signature crust. As the name suggests, you can buy by the slice. But whole pies are tempting options as well. The creative craft cocktail menu deserves your attention. Standard and special concoctions turn out consistently delicious, visit after visit.

Juan H.
I was expecting some seriously great tasting pizza but was a little disappointed. I'm in the Bay Area, so fresh Amici pizza is the bomb, and I thought Slice would be similar. It was not. We had it delivered, so maybe that was part of it. By the time we got it, from down the street and an hour later, it wasn't hot and the thin crust wasn't very crisp. We asked for extra cheese, but if there was extra cheese, it would have had none without paying for the extra! All in all I cannot recommend it, but I think maybe if you walk in, you might have a better experience.

Friends and acquaintances, I would like to express my outrage. Most of you know me enough to understand that it takes a lot to truly piss me off. Also i have traveled and dined in restaurants in 3/4 of this country. So when I say that I received the absolutely worst service of my life, you know that i am being serious. Now that we got that disclaimer out of the way and you are still reading this.... here is the story. We came into Slices Pizza at 9:30 pm on a Saturday night in New Orleans, we all had about 3 double margaritas and were tipsy. We sat down at a booth and proceed to have a conversation about graphite as an art form. We were loud and there were quite a few fucks and shits thrown into the conversation. Next to us was a family having dinner, the kids at the table were heard to swear like dock workers by one of the members of our group in the bathroom. After we ordered food we were asked to keep the cussing to a low, while a song called big pimping was playing in the background. For those who do not know the song here are some of the lyrics. "You know I - thug em, fuck em, love em, leave em Cause I don't fuckin need em Take em out the hood, keep em lookin good But I don't fuckin feed em First time they fuss I'm breezin Talkin bout, "What's the reasons?" I'm a pimp in every sense of the word, bitch Better trust than believe em In the cut where I keep em til I need a nut, til I need to beat the guts Then it's, beep beep and I'm pickin em up Let em play with the dick in the truck Many chicks wanna put Jigga fist in cuffs Divorce him and split his bucks" Never mind the hypocrisy involved in that request, we toned it down. Our food was delivered to us with polite smile and a fuck you, which is fine. As the common saying at my work goes "fuck em if they can't take a joke". This is where I got pissed off enough to walk out and not pay, which I did not do. We received no silverware, I had to finally walk to the server stand and grab silverware and napkins so we could enjoy our meal. The only time the server walked up to us was when i was extremely vocal about not tipping and walking out on the bill because we received almost no service. The server approached we with an extremely rude "did you want something". And my only regret is being caught of guard by this and saying "no we are fine". At this point I put cash down for my meal and walked the fuck out, because I was too pissed off to do anything else. So thanks you Slices Pizzeria for being the only low point in my otherwise amazing NOLA experience. Please comment on this because I would like to know if I was in the wrong here. And if you are ever in New Orleans please stay away from Slices Pizzeria because this town is full of amazing restaurants with fantastic service and the risk of ruining your experience is not worth the good food they serve.

The first thing I've got to say about the crew at Slice is that at 10:59 pm on a weekday they still took care of me and made a handcrafted pie! None of that "sorry but the kitchen is closed" BS; they were open and took care of me. Thank you, Slice! Now for the pizza... I had a pepperoni and black olive finished with some Parmesan and crushed red pepper. It was delightful! The crust was nice and toasty on the bottom with just a hint of crunch. Who in their right mind wants soggy crust?! I've had lots of good pizza, and some not so good (I don't subscribe to that whole any pizza is good pizza thing), but the pizza from Slice will hit your top 10 for sure, maybe even the #1 spot depending on your personal taste. Give it a shot!

This place is so much better than the one on Magazine Street - service wise. I can't tell you how many times I've been disappointed or been given "attitude" at their other location. Unfortunately, the Magazine location is just a few blocks away from my house and I purposefully make the trip to this location because I KNOW they won't disappoint. My favorite dishes here are the Aglio Oglio pasta and their cheese pizza. I've had a few different dishes, but I find myself ordering these same things over and over again.

Every chance I get to take someone here for lunch, I seem to make it happen now. This is my go-to lunch pizza place. Yummy fresh pizza for cheap! You literally get one slice and can be full from it. That just doesn't happen much. Plus if its a place my boyfriend will actually eat and have nothing bad to say about the place must be AWESOME. Best Time to go is in the week during the 11-1pm range for a great lunch. One slice will cost you pretty much 5 bucks different specialties.

Erwin B.
Love it! Got the bacon, basil, and garlic slice and that topped my NOLA food trip. This place was pretty much my default restaurant while vacationing in New Orleans. Slice Pizzeria was very simple, fresh, and you are blasted with unforgettable pizza aromas, tasty brewed beers, and Southern hospitality. If i was there at this very moment i would purchase: Prosciutto, Gorgonzola, and Arguala; bacon, basil, and garlic; trucker calzone; and the creme brulee! NOTE: This place stayed open before hurricane Issac smacked St. Charles st. and that is a 5/5 in my books. Many stores/restaurants closed early or were understaffed.

A great little pizza spot. Out front they will have a few tables set up outside. Some tables inside, and booths that go along the back. The food comes out fast, but the table service for drink refills is a little slow. I got my app before I could get a second refill of ice tea. Though not a big deal. For an app, I had cheesy bread. Just garlic bread with mozzarella and marinara dipping sauce. Simple, but good. I had two slices of Prosciutto, Gorgonzola, and Arugula pizza. Again, really good and freshly made. They also have a small bar with a nice selection of beers. A place to look for if in the Garden District.

Ah, Slice Pizzeria :) Slice will probably always be one of my favorite pizza places in New Orleans. They use fresh ingredients, their pizza dough is the perfect middle ground- not too thick,not too thin, and their toppings list is expansive. Also, their bruschetta is freaking delicious!

We went in as a group of 11. The price turned out really good like 80+ and we got to try many different flavors. Our favorite is the Hawaii one. The restaurant is also very cute and special. The waitresses are friendly and with a good service. Definitely recommend to go there if you are visiting New Orleans!

Arrived in NOLA for my 40th and we were staying at the Avenue garden Hotel next door. 5 of us just flew in and were starving! We were supposed to go to Willie Maes for the fried chicken but there was a line wrapped around the building. So we decided to check this place out because it was convenient and it was worth it. One thing I like was you could get ANY type of pizza they had for a slice! Most places have limited selections when it comes to the per slice. The pizza was pretty freakin awesome! Ny Style like I love it and full of flavor! We were so impressed we managed to squeeze this place in a 2nd time. The second time we didnt have pizza. Garlic Bread was great. Mushroom Crostini was very good, Caprese Salad was decent.. The pasta was a heaping portion and filling but it was kind of bland. However, the item I was least thrilled with was the bread pudding.. it was definitely cake not bread pudding. The only reason I wasn't impressed is because I was expecting bread pudding. For NOLA I expect an overabuncance of flavor so for the pasta portion I was left a bit in the "meh" category but the pizza.. SPOT ON!

Roxanne C.
This was my first time here, and I have to say I'm a fan. The food is good and affordable. I like that you can buy pizza by the slice. You can also either get a half of a pasta dish or a whole pasta dish, which I liked because I wasn't that hungry. I also thought the staff seemed friendly. Parking seemed to be an issue since you have to park on the street, but I was dropped off so it wasn't a problem for me. I will definitely come back here.

What I liked most about Slice, is as its name suggests, you can order pizza by the slice. At $3.75, the slices are pretty reasonably priced, allowing you to try a couple of different specialties. I had a slice of spinach, sun dried tomato, & artichoke and a slice of the special. While I thought the "base" of the pizza was perfect (think thin, New York style crust), the pizza was kind of flavorless despite all of the toppings. If I return, I think I'll simply go with a plain cheese slice and hopefully get to enjoy the pizza for what it really is. Why two stars down? As I've already mentioned, the pizza wasn't fantastic. I ordered a caesar salad as a starter and the lettuce was fairly brown and wilted. The boy asked what beer was on draught, ordered, and received a bottled beer. I ordered my slice without onions and peppers and it came with both. So, in short, the service could have been a bit better. I'll definitely go back to Slice for another try, but I won't be in a rush to return.

UNIQUE, FRESH, and LOCAL! We've been going to Slice since they opened many years ago. Their slices are huge, and the ingredients are really fresh! Let the staff know you aren't some snob and they are very friendly! I love getting penne pasta with pesto sauce and salmon (it is NO LONGER on the menu, but if you ask nicely - they will do it for ya!). 1/2 price mimosas on Sundays are a treat!!!! LOVE this place!

Bad experience. 2 hours for delivery, cold pizza and didn't get the order correct. Called back, they didn't answer. Warmed pizza, not good at all. Don't understand the hype. Waste of money. Try Reginellis , better service and food.

This is my favorite pizza joint in all of New Orleans. My friend doesn't like pizza, but once she had a slice of the Flying Hawaiian, she's been addicted ever since! I have had the Meat Lover's, Flying Hawaiian, Specialty D-Luxe (MY FAVE) and Sportsman's Paradise. Usually, I order a 14" half Flying Hawaiian and half Specialty D-Luxe. They're really good about half/half pizzas. Their delivery is fast and their pizza is always so juicy! I like that I'm not gnawing on too much bread because it's thin crust. I like the atmosphere of the place as well, the service is fast and friendly - reminds me of my favorite pizza place in MN: Pizza Luce.

I really love this place and look forward to returning to eat here with my family once I visit in a few weeks. This is the better location as far as I am concerned, just has a better vibe about it than the one on Magazine St, and I think its due to the lack of tourists that are in there. Has a more laid back feel and a lot less children crying or screaming, always a good thing. It's family friendly though. I love the art work and the staff. The pizza is always phenomenal and you really just can't go wrong with whatever you get. Definitely recommend them to all my friends and family.

Simply awesome!!!! I would of gave 5 stars but the Sangria was bitter. (You know alcohol is a worth a whole star!) The food, the service, the wait time.... All of it, SIMPLY AWESOME! If u haven't tried this place you have been letting life pass you by! Did I forget to mention the prices were very affordable. My pregnant friend gave it 2 thumbs up! I will definitely be back with more friends! I wonder if they host events.... I'll find out and get back to you all! What more must I say for you to trust and believe that this place is SIMPLY AWESOME (in my slow motion voice!)?

So when i visited NOLA last, my friend wanted me to try Slice and see how it compared to Pizza or NY/NJ. While i still prefer my home slice, Slice is able to stand up on its own. The Pizza here is really good. I was pretty impressed and there combinations of flavors were pretty awesome. I like that they serve Italian sodas, disappointed that they were out of mango, but every place I've every been to that has mango is always out of it when I order it, so I'm not to disappointed and this just adds to my argument that the elusive mango is just a farfetched fable to get people like me into their shops. Getting back from my tangent, slice has some awesome food and defiantly would be willing to come back again to try some more of their awesome food.

The pizza's pretty good, but we were disappointed the last time we came and found the bar was (physically) miniaturized. They still have drinks, but you can't sit at the bar anymore. The ingredients are fresh and tasty! It's not my favorite place, but I won't refuse to go here. Not sure about small kids or groups... It's loud enough that loud young kids you might avoid taking other places would go virtually unnoticed. The building is a bit narrow, so I can't really imagine how they fit groups in together... I wouldn't go with a group of more than four.

My go-to pizza spot in the city... I definitely prefer the St. Charles location over the one on Magazine because the staff (as well as the pizza) seem different for some reason. My suggestions on pies/slices: Fresh, Arugula/Prosciutto/Gorgonzola.... or a slice of cheese/onion.

Since I've lived in NOLA, pretty much everyone I know said that the best pizza ever is at Slice. Our verdict? Not so much. Maybe all the friend hype raised my expectations. I liked the crust on the pie, but the Mrs. didn't. The sauce was too salty, and too spicy. I admit, I'm pretty hard on pizza, as I grew up on "real pizza" in the northeast. I also ordered a meatball appetizer, and my lady ordered the chocolate chip bread pudding. The meatballs were horrible, but the dessert was damn good. The service was excellent, which made up for some of the food's shortcomings, but I doubt we'll be back.

This place is awesome with a capital A! The calzone was superb. Way to big to eat in one sitting for me. And the chocolate bread pudding was a great way to end the evening. You have y to check this place out for pizza when visiting NOLA.

My oh my, this place was soo delicious!! And definitely took me by suprise. I did NOT want to eat pizza in NOLA (Um...can i just try a billion different jambalays and gumbos please?) but, it was 1-2 blocks from our hotel (the Prytania), it was out 4th night, it was raining, and we were getting ready for our last night on Bourbon. So, it made sense to stay near the area. Imagine my suprise when we entered this classy yet comfortable (think brick walls, dim and moody lighting, with an intimate bar immediately greeting us upon entrance) pizzeria, with pizza slices in moderate prices ($3.75) and yummy smells? We got take out so we could eat in the comforts of our warm hotel room. Their pizza slices were huuge with tons of toppings gracing them...and incredibly flavorful. (would have expected nothing less from NOLA!) What we got: (ingredients straight from their website) -Shrimp & Andouille (Caramelized Onions, Yellow Corn, Diced Tomato, and Green Onion) Anything with caramelized onions..and you have my heart. Perfect balance of the greasiness of the cheese, sausage, and shrimp with the fresh veggies...delicious. -Greek (Artichoke Hearts, Imported Feta, Kalamata Olives, and Red Onions ~optional Anchovies) um...yum? -BBQ shrimp: a kind local (who claims he is there most nights for a beer and pizza since he lives a block away) recommended this dish to us. Upon opening it up when we got back to our hotel room, we were slightly disappointed. It looked like a slightly upgraded version of the po'boy we had eaten earlier. Buttered bread, a few pieces of cooked shrimp, fresh parsley, and a small container of liquid-y bbq sauce. HOWEVER, this sauce was to DIE for! It was incredibly different: not sweet and thick like most bbq sauces...brothy...but full of savory flavor with a kick at the end. (we ended up dipping our crusts into this sauce...yum) All in all, this was one of my best meals in NOLA. and what a suprise! Def recommend :)

This is the original location of Slice which has started to expand to other locations. This location is nearest to my house and the most convenient to me. If all your in the mood for is one slice of pizza this is probably the best place to get a highly customized slice to fit your hearts desire. The pizza here is ok to me and I like the availability of all the topping choices. I still rarely end up here as when I'm in the mood for pizza I usually go to Theo's, Pizza Delicious, or the $5 pint and a slice deal at New York Pizza. This is certainly a decent place for a slice but I always need more than one slice!

Jamie S.
Not impressed. It took 1.5 hours to get our pizza delivered and when it finally came we were pretty disappointed. We ordered the flying Hawaiian. We basically were brought a bacon and jalepeno pizza. Little to no red sauce, barely any pineapple or chicken. Crust was bland and dry. Heard a lot of great things about Slice over the last couple years but after this experience we will not be back. So many better pizza options out there! That being said... You know what they say about bad pizza.

Kristen A.
YUMMMM!!! I love that you can order by the "slice" and choose anyyyy toppings you want!! It's basically subway meets a pizza joint. I had a slice with artichoke, corn, spinach, peppers, and garlic! Super yum and fair prices, and you don't feel like puking after like Pizza Hut. WIN!
(5)
Joi B.
Lots of pizza bang for your buck! I'm the sort who, when faced with all kinds of options, can never make up her mind as to what kind of pizza she wants. I want 'em all!!! The beauty of Slice is that they allow you three ordering options: by the slice, a small pie or a large pie. And you can have virtually *any* style of pizza you want from gourmet slices (Mushroom Explosion, spinach/artichoke/sundried tomatoes) to create-your-own. Last night I started with a perfect arugula salad (size "small" is plentiful) and then decided on one special slice (spinach/artichoke/tomato which comes on their white pie) and one red slice with kalamata olives and mushrooms. Let me just say that I'm going to be a diehard for their red pies. I generally prefer red pies anyway (I'm a saucy gal) and Slice's sauce is great! Taste/texture is similar to a corner pizza joint in NY, but of course a little bit different. I mean, the ingredients are extremely fresh and they are *not* shy with the basil (love). I was not as in love with the white slice because it was very dry, but still tasty nonetheless. Service is super sweet and speedy. Casual, but charming atmosphere (read: not fast food-like) Oh and get a load of those drink specials!!! Seems like there is something different and awesome every day from Sunday Mimosas to Saturday Bloody Marys. Weekday evening specials include 1/2 price bottles and cocktails.

The two ladies at the table will have THE TRUCKER! The trucker? Oh yes, the trucker. A gigantic meat/ cheese stuffed calzone that can't be matched. Each bite is a delicious melody of pork goodness. Okay, so you're veg, that's cool too. They have an equally large, veg stuffed mate called the roasted garden. If you love garlic they have you covered. The last time I had this one I swear there must have been an entire head of garlic inside. I smelled like garlic for at least an entire day after I ate that thing. Ops The pizza of course is good as well. The crust is thin and the toppings are piled on. I haven't had a bad slice yet. The service is always speedy enough. The atmosphere is comfortable and modern, a step up from the every day pizza place. However, caution, don't leave your children unattended or, according to the sign above the bar, they will feed them espresso and give them a puppy. ;)

I love this location because it is three blocks from my house. Hell yeah! Went here with my parents today for a quick lunch. Pizza was delicious as usual, as was my mesclun salad (fruit+greens+vinaigrette+walnuts, yay!). Our waiter was fast and friendly'personable. They have great drink specials, with a full bar and a selection of beer and wine. My dad had the mac and cheese, and gobbled that up pretty fast, so it must have been good. Slice is the place I go to when I want a consistently good meal at a reasonable price with friendly service. I've never had a bad experience here. Try the pga, it's my favorite :)

2 of us stopped by around 1:30 on Sunday afternoon. Staff was friendly and welcoming. I had the cheese calzone with chicken. Good size, nice crust, but the cheese in the middle was still cold, so 1 star lost for that. Definitely a good value for the price, and steps away from the St Charles Ave streetcar stop

Chose this place for dinner since it's close to where I was staying. Ordered shrimp bisque-very tasty! Small salad (with goat cheese, strawberries, blueberries, pecan & balsamic dressing)-good and the BBQ shrimp appetizer-very good but a bit salty. Overall would go again to try the pizza.

Attention parents, Slice may just be your salvation, too. If your kids are like mine and child A and child B are basically as compatible as Jack Sprat and his wife, waste money no more! Slice lets you order by the slice almost any kind of pizza you can think of. Gorgonzola and arugula for you, perhaps, while the kids eat toppings that don't involve compromise or negotiation. Add to this a full bar with drink specials, and you might just leave feeling relaxed and happy. After eating at a restaurant. With your kids. Crazy, right? The pizza is quite yummy, and the list of toppings is impressive by our admittedly compromised pizza standards in this city. When we were there last Friday, sangria was on special, so my friend and I got a red and a white. We both agreed that the white was slightly tastier but that the red was a strong contender. For dessert we tried the chocolate pear and the dreamsicle popsicles. Yum, and plenty of real fruit for a lower guilt:indulgence ratio than most desserts. The only drawback to the place is the hassle of trying to negotiate a parking spot around here at dinner time. But with just that minor annoyance, I'll definitely be back.

After looking for a good restaurant literally ALL over new orleans we stumbled on this place after taking the streetcar down into the Garden District. It was really good. They had an awesomely refreshing drink called the Riverboat Captain and their pizza was pretty good. I liked the PGA a lot. I definitely recommend making a trip out here for this.

This is by far my second most favoritest pizza place in town! Not really so much for the pizza but the service, the prices, and the presentation of the food are all top. Not to mention, the last table we sat at had a great picture of local musician Clint Maedgen behind it, whom I adore. So that made me happy! Compared to every restaurant in New Orleans, the caprese salad is the freshest (and prettiest)! I love that you have the option of building your own slice, which is rare. The wine/beer options are pretty fantastic too. I appreciate the fact that the kitchen is so open and visible so nothing is hidden & you can rest assured that all your food is handled properly etc... Needless to say, if I do not feel like making the trip to the Bywater for my #1 favorite pizza in town, this is truly the only other pizza place that makes the cut in my book.

Amazing salads, pizza and ravioli are also excellent. I went during the boil water advisory, and a brief (1 minute or less) blackout and the service was STILL AWESOME. The atmosphere is great!

After a long day of walking around NOLA with my wife and our 3 kids under the age of 8, we were dog tired and in need of sustenance. We took the trolley car down St Charles and I used Yelp to find us some pizza along the way. Walking in, we had more than enough room to fit our stroller without taking it down, which is always nice. The place was fairly empty for a Sunday afternoon so we walked to the back and took a seat. The service was great, got us plenty of water right away and took our order. Our XL pepperoni was delicious as expected and satisfied everyone at the table. Our waitress recommended the bread pudding as a local favorite so we went in for that as well. It was a bit burnt and covered up with sugar toppings but we still polished it off. All in all a solid find for some wary tourists looking for a slice of pizza.

It's as good as I remember it back in college. Hot and crispy crust. Solid supreme pizza is a staple. Plus the tomato basil soup was delicious. We also ordered Chocolate chip bread pudding...get dat!

One of the lone voices of dissent, owing almost exclusively to personal taste. Friends, I am not a fan of the thin crust pizza. Slice loves the thin crust pizza. You may already see where we differ. It's not that Slice is bad. It's not that I will avoid this place. It's just that I don't love it the way everyone else does, when I have Cafe Roma even closer to my house (with delivery) offering me the same amazing toppings on a crust I prefer for less moola. Yes, Slice is fresh. Yes, Slice is interesting. Yes, Slice is full of hipsters. Yes, Slice has sexy waitstaff. Yes, Slice has a good bar. yes, Slice makes amazing salads. But no, Slice isn't my favorite. I also don't love the crowd of clove-smokers who hang out in front of Slice and try to kick my bike tires when I'm taking to the sidewalks in the dark. Not cool, guys! Not cool! Accessibility notes: Cramped for folks with mobility devices. Can get loud at peak hours. Bathrooms are tiny. No braille menu or signage. Booths can be a tight squeeze.

Gotta love the pitcher special- paired with their generally good pricing, and the quality of food, makes for a great dinner. Tip; The restaurant just keeeps onnnn goinngg. Like an ass, I picked a seat in the cramped front of the house. Didn't realize there was so much more dining room until I went to use the restroom... Much nicer!

Wayne N.
The service puts this one over the top. Everyone was very friendly and the place had a 'real' feal. Even the patrons seemed like a nice bunch. I think if I lived near by this could become a regular spot for me. Good food and atmosphere at a great price. The pizza itself is probably not the best you've ever had, but it just might come in second.

When people get hurt and end up in the hospital, they should be fed intravenously using Slice's shrimp remoulade sauce. Of course, they may never want to wake up or leave. It's that good. This cute spot has an open kitchen, tables in the front, booths along the middle, and a bar in the back. After slopping up all the sauce with buttered bread, we noshed on bacon-chicken-cheese ravioli and pesto pasta with salmon. The perfect complement: Amita Satsuma beers. Deliciomo!

Alexios M.
Reliable and reasonably priced except for the time I ordered tomato soup and you charged me for the jambalaya cuz it was " the soup of the day". 8 bucks for basil and tomato? Not on my watch. So I send it back and you call out to the cook "86 the soup". Dude looks like an extra from Sons of Anarchy. His response? He throws the soup and starts cursing. Now I don't have an MBA in management, but that seems like a management opportunity. Step up and say something next time. Don't be scared of the biker types. They got moms and cry in the night like everyone else.

Stopped in for a late dinner last night...had the Caesar salad, the Fresh slice, and the hubby had a slice of the pancetta/Gorgonzola/arugula and the bacon/roasted garlic slice. Perfect meal with friendly staff. The kitchen was a little slow, but other than that had a great time.

Jenn C.
I came here while on vacation, and while the pizza alone was delicious enough for a return visit, what I was truly enamored with was the Caesar Salad. I was surprised at the addition of roasted red pepper, but it turned out to be a great compliment to the flavors! I had to come back on my last night to get one last dose for takeout. Image my disappointment when I got back to my hotel to find they'd forgotten to give me any dressing for my full serving of salad. It was just not worth a 15min round trip walk for a girl alone at night to ask for a refund/get dressing. Had to knock off a star for this cruel Caesar denial. Other points in their favor: *Our first night we came minutes before closing, so thought we should take-out so they could close down. The server we talked to did not begrudge our late appearance in the least, and pleasantly encouraged us to sit. They seat up through closing. *As hinted by the name, they also serve to-order pizza by the slice. We were able to order a full pizza, and a specialty slice just to sample. Both delicious!

We stayed just a few blocks from Slice. My hubby likes to try different pizzas wherever we go....he is from NY and lives in Chicago-- so pizza is a passion. Anyway he loved this place! Amazing...with all the great food in NOLA I still could not keep him away from this place. He returned to enjoy the different types-- all great. Staff service was warm and inviting and by the end of our stay, he was on a first name basis with the entire crew!

One of my favorite all time Pizza places in the city (New Orleans).It's not a flashy place, it doesn't beg for your attention, its just a nice laid back atmosphere that makes you feel right at home. It's almost like when you walk thru the door the them song to that famous TV show "Cheers" plays in your head. The workers are always nice, outgoing, and very attentive. The bar although maybe small its still very inviting and all part of the charm of this special place. Now onto the food, the pizza is immaculate,once you take the first bite into your pizza, you automatically roll your eyes into the back of your head and can't help but to let out a mmmmmmmmmmm. I always order the meat pizza, with almost every meat topping known to man on it. Meatball,Ham,Bacon,Pepperoni,Sausage. The only negative to eating the pizza is when its all gone and trust me you will be begging for more. They also have an extensive collection of beer and we are not talking about Budweiser or Miller Lite, which they have as well. We are talking about introducing you to new flavors and beers you have never heard of but never fail to be delicious. All and all its just one the best attractions on St.Charles, hop on a streetcar ride down the line, hop off right in front of Slice grab a slice or a few, have a beer and roll out, I guarantee you will always have a great experience.

Probably my favorite pizza of all time - good thin crust, just right amount of sauce, service was great . . . this was a hole in the wall, it didn't look like much when I walked in - but my son assured me that it was great - he was right. . . . I woke up the next morning wishing they were open at 9am, so I could grab a whole pie to munch on as I drove to Dallas, TX - Excellent!!!!!!!!!

We wandered in here accidental while strolling through the Garden District and boy are we glad we did! They have a lot of unique ingredients that are very fresh, such as broccoli and yellow corn. Their greek pizza is very delish! The crust is light and flaky, with a cornmeal bottom. Also, they have a nice full bar in the back, which makes having a beer and a pizza all the more enjoyable.

I've had better pizza in one other place - a New York hole in the wall called Sal's. Other than that, this is the best pizza out there. That's assuming, of course, you don't favor the messy caserole that is Chicago style pizza. Friendly, full bar, great pizza; ehat else can you ask for?

This place is the bomb! You can order any pizza by the slice (as the name suggests) and they have different speciality pizzas in rotation. Also, they have delicious mojitos. I have always received great service here.

Let me start this review by saying that my "par" for pizza is Star in Houston - the best I've had in the world. Roaming the streets of New Orleans (outside the French Quarter for once), we stumbled upon this little dive. The wait staff seemed younger and more "indie" than most people we'd even seen in New Orleans, which was interesting. It's obviously close to a university or something. They were quick to recommend their favorites, and we took them. I had a slice of the spinach, sun-dried tomato, and artichoke "white" pizza (that means no tomato sauce) and a slice of the white pie, which had several cheeses on it. Both were pretty amazing, even though it may not be the best pizza in the world. We finished with the praline gelato and a shot of espresso, both of which were great. We call New Orleans "The Big Lazy" for how lethargic we find most people here to be. The pizza alone would have earned this place 4 stars, but the prompt and friendly service and modern ambiance gave it the extra bump it needed. A great, cheap lunch or dinner spot if you're ever in the area.

Great pizza, fabulous calzones, a fun, cheap laid back atmosphere! I loved this place during undergrad, where a calazone with 4 toppings would cost $7 and last for 2 meals. The wait staff is friendly yet laid back and the open cooking area makes for wonderful aromas. My 72yrs old Great-Aunt, who isnt particularly fond of pizza LOVES this place and demands that we go back next time we are in NOLA. If you local, dont pass this place up and if you are a tourist, this establishment is a reminder that NOLA has more to offer than seafood.

Itching for some pizza, my friends recommended this place. On a nice warm sunny day we came and were seated promptly by a nice waitress. The place had a simple, contemporary design, and more importantly clean. I ordered a slice of the shrimp and andouille, along with a slice of bacon, basil and garlic, a cesar salad and asking the waitress to surprise me with a drink (she chose strawberry italian soda). The salad was like a cesar anywhere else, and the italian soda is good but nothing unique. They do know their pizza though. Thin crust, with crispy, slightly chewy base, and topped with fresh ingredients except one exception. The bacon slice was loaded with crispy salty delicious crumbled bacon, and fresh chopped basil and roasted garlic. This was an awesome choice, and I would order a whole pizza of this if given a choice. The other slice was dissappointing though. The shrimp tasted a bit old, and the andouille was nothing special. At least the crust was good, but I would not order this again. I will coming back here to try out all their other choices next time I am in town. =)

This weekend I went to Slice on St. Charles and it was absolute chaos. I called in a to go order and they said it would take about 25 minutes. After attempting to park for 10 minutes, I entered Slice about 25 minutes after I called in the order. There was one line for both take out orders and people putting their name on the list to be seated. Chaos with a capital K. So I finally got to the front of the line. Great Awesome. The computer is down. Bummer. The guy starts hitting the computer and cussing. Buzz kill. I have a to go order I say. "Name?" Lindsay. Yeah it's not done yet. What? So I wait. It comes out of the oven 10 minutes later. Total time for pizza? 40 minutes.Taste when I got home? Delicious. The pizza was absolutely yummy. I really do like Slice pizza, I think it's some of the best pizza in New Orleans. Slice St. Charles is a small space. There is no way around it. The Slice on Magazine is much better for dining in. However, I still like the pizza and the St. Charles location is much closer for me. Delicious homemade pizza, even if the wait is a little too long for the product. My advice? Go for a late lunch and take advantage of their happy hour and lack of crowd. But overall, if you're looking for pizza in New Orleans, this is pretty frickin good.

Go to place for pizza. Good pasta & salads too. The only place that I know of in NOLA that sells by the slice.

My first taste of New Orleans was Slice. Pizza, hmm... Now what I wouldve thought of, but it was awesome pizza at that. Took a few minutes to cook, but the slice I got was worth it. We stayed down the road just a short walk away, but I would've driven for another slice after hanging out on Frenchmen St. Atmosphere and the music was very Baltimore, where I'm from, and the staff was pleasant, so it felt like a piece of home on St Charles Ave. I'll eat here again very soon. Hopefully sooner than I expected! New Orleans did something to me unexplainable, and it's places like this that are pullin me back!

Talk about an unassuming place, Slice is it. Located near Lee circle, this place is easy to access using the St. Charles street car line. There is street parking but usually is filled up. I discovered the place quite by accident but I'm glad I did. I went in thinking "OK, gourmet pizza by the slice. good deal". I was pleasantly surprised. Waitstaff is funny and friendly, and the food is great. I went in as a party of four and we all got something different. Mine was called a Trucker, it was from the Calzone section of the menu and it was one of the best calzones I've ever had and I'm from New England and lived in Italy. Leave to NOLA to make the calzone their own, Slice serves it bent in a crescent shape, what can you expect from the crescent city. It was just the right amount of olive oil, meat juices and cheese oil. Blended together a fabulous balance. Slice does them slightly different in that they serve the sauce on the side and not in the calzone. Portion sizes are good, bordering on huge but that just means you can have it the next day for breakfast. If you want a great pizza treat in NOLA, you can't go wrong with Slice. Only criticism is that rest rooms are below par, only real compliant.

Matthew M.
Slice never disappoints. The place needs a little touch-up paint and it's a little cramped, but the pizza is always great. The servers look a little "indie" (which in my mind usually equals bad service) but they always rise above and beyond and never let your drink empty. They accommodated a party of eight for us today at noon on a Friday with NO WAIT! Tres Impresse! Love the Prosciutto, arugula, and gorgonzola pizza. I add roasted garlic to it and it is wonderful. The pizza is very thin crust with a cornmeal dusting underneath. Also there is a little bar in the back area that is usually laid-back and usually includes a cute and attentive bartender.

Slice is fighting to overtake Reginelli's for my favorite Pizza in the metro area. The Pizza is delish, and you can by it, as the name implies, by the slice. The only drawback is the place trys too hard too be "hip" and it can (but dows not always) show in the attitude of the waitstaff and the speed of the kitchen.

Moving up! Now at 4 stars from my original 2. This place is really starting to rock it out. Service has been consistant, as well as food. Still wanting to have a slammin' Pizza from here as my past pizza experiences have been mediocre.

The happy hour beer special (M-F, 4-7) is amazing. For 5 bucks you get a pitcher of NOLA Brown or NOLA Blonde. 5 bucks! Or you can get a pint for $2.75. And the pitchers are big! Best beer bargain in town, no doubt. I went for the first time, attracted by the cheap, quality beer. The pizza was the best I've eaten in this town. I had a slice of Bacon Basil and Garlic, and a slice of Proscuito, Gargonzola, and Arugula. Outstanding. Tons of garlic, tons of gargonzola. I wanted a slice of Shrimp and Andouille pizza, but it was $5.75. A bit pricey. But I had my 2 gourmet slices, and 4 pints of beer from the pitcher, and ended up paying just $13!!! The server was good (and cute).

We went to New Orleans for a conference/vacation and ended up eating here 3 times. We eat out a lot and everywhere was so tourist like. I think this is the type of place I would eat if I lived in New Orleans to avoid the tourists. Lots of variety, helpful staff. Nice little bar in the back but family friendly in the front. Kids liked picking out their own popsicles from the cooler.

All pizza in New Orleans must be compared to the greatness that is Pizza Delicious and this pizza is ok but not even close. They have more of a selection then PD but the quality and crust are no where near as good. If your uptown this is not a bad option for pizza but for me its just ok.

Enjoyable pizza joint with good choices. Interesting crust, can't quite putt finger on its uniqueness. It's crispy, like how deep dish can be, but it's more NYC style. I like to stop in with out of town friends after exploring the LGD.

Still have mad love for this place. Went in on Saturday night, about 10, grabbed a table easily. This time we split a medium PGA pizza with prosciutto di parma, imported gorgonzola, organic arugula. Fan-freakin-tastic! I would definitely get this pie again. They say "honey by request" under the description of this pie. Well, I was intrigued, let me try this with honey! Crazy enough, totally worked. They brought a small side of honey, dripped it lightly on my PGA slice, perfect bite! Slice is still my favorite.

A great place to chill out, have a great slice of pizza (or several) and a few beers. This is my "go-to" joint for pizza. The best part about their pizza is that they have a number of selections that can be ordered by the slice, giving people the opportunity to try as many as they can handle in one sitting. I recently tried the salad they have that has salmon on it and it's great too. Twice I've ordered it and it's my new personal favorite. They've updated their menu and removed a few things. My favorite perk to this place is that, when we ask, they will still serve one of our favorite items that they removed.

Their pizza is the best thin crust pizza in town! Salads are great as well. Hope off of the streetcar and get you some pizza!

Love this place! The meat lovers pizza is my absolute favorite. They deliver too which is amazing.

Well it's been a year and I did go back, and honestly I was less impressed by this visit. I've just had better pizza, and by better I mean tastier crust, more abundant and evenly spread toppings, not to mention friendlier service.

Some of the better pizza in New Orleans. It gets an extra star from me because they sell by the slice. After living in Brooklyn, this is vital.

Thom S.
Oh man. Delicious. I'm going to miss this place when I go back to Virginia tomorrow. I'm here for the second time in as many days. Great atmosphere, DELICIOUS food! I highly recommend the mussels appetizer, the Flying Hawaiian, the Meat Lovers, and the gelato. There is local artwork for sale hanging on the walls if you have a few hundred bucks to kill.

When you first walk in, Slice is a dank lite hole-in-the-wall. But don't judge a pizzeria by it's digs! Let me first say the prices were great - we went for dinner and got three slices, two half salads, mussels, gelato, and a pitcher of beer for $50 (including tip!). The Mesclun Salad is delicious. Full of color and flavor, it's something you would expect to see in an upscale restaurant. I had the Margherita Pizza - which, despite it's simplicity, had the perfect combination of sauce, cheese, and toppings on a not-too-crispy thin crust. GET THE MUSSELS. If you like shellfish, you will LOVE these - I could have eaten my body weight in this appetizer. The white wine sauce was amazing. Also, half price pitchers on Tuesdays!

Good food good prices. Wether you want a whole pizza or just a slice anything can be made.

This place is amazing. It's a local place near the hotel I was staying in. The staff at slice is incredibly friendly and make some great recommendations. This isn't a fast food place, so don't expect your food to come out right after you order. They make everything from scratch. I recommend getting the pizzas and calzones. The pizza are so unique and you can make your own calzones. The place is small, but it's super cozy. Here's what I got: -shrimp and andouille sausage pizza -calzone with ricotta and prosciutto I'll be back again when I'm down in the bayou, lol

Me and the kids stop by here whenever we are in the area it's small but it's very family friendly. The pizza always fresh the garlic bread us homemade. If you're are by either location I recommend you stop by for a slice..pun intended

This is the perfect crust, perfect fresh toppings, perfect drink specials pizza joint in all of my rotation of pizza options. I appreciate that the "by the slice" option is quite possibly the same size of pizza as a "small" anywhere else. One slice is perfect for lunch and I like to pair it with a salad. I love the BBG pizza which is a white pizza with bacon, basil, and garlic. The four cheese margherita is also delicious if you're looking for something a little more traditional. The best best part is that you can add on any extra toppings you like TO A SLICE! You can't even do that in New York! Bah! If you're hankering for pizza during the football season they have a weekly pizza in honor of the opposing team so you can EAT DAT and we all feel like a bit of a winner. You're welcome Drew! I love you, Slice. Thank you for fulfilling all of my pizza desires.

Dear Gluten Free Friends.... Get ready to embrace your love and lust for thin crust pizza with fresh toppings once again! Made in house and fresh weekly, Slice makes the best gluten free pizza crust hands down. Yes, even good enough that your gluten loving friends will embrace sharing this medium pie with you without hesitation. Don't overlook the delicious salads with homemade salad dressings that will make you feel like the woes of the world have slightly melted. The shrimp appetizer is deliciously... really I've never seen anyone walk away here hungry. Oh, and if you are thirsty - don't worry the full stocked bar runs great specials and makes a good every day cocktail. To top it all off the staff has always been friendly with unique personalities providing smiles to customers.

Everything I've had here is REALLY good...time tested and grown up approved...BBQ shrimp is my favorite, however, the meatballs are delightful as well... The pizza is thin crust...which is a comfort and tradition from the NE that was a really good call on Slice's part...YES! Still awesome....staff works hard and enjoys where they are... Which says something.

Girlie G.
Reasonably priced but the pizza didn't have much flavor, very plain, needs more seasonings. Rude on the phone, stingy on Ranch. I wouldn't eat here again.

Cristen F.
This is my favorite pizza place in town. I love the crust - not too thick, not too thin. It's made with part cornflour or cornmeal so is crispier than most crusts, which I prefer. The sauce is fantastic and there is almost anything you'd consider putting on a pizza for toppings. I generally go with the Greek add chicken or meatball with peppers. The meatballs are wonderful. It's also a good choice for lunch to get a slice with a small side salad.

I couldn't face one more conversation re: dinner. After a long day of work & school, standing over a stove was the last thing I was worried about. Pizza to the rescue! Slice offered everything I needed: hot, fresh pizza, ready and waiting for me when I arrived within the timeframe I was given over the phone. It was a little soggy by the time I got it home (5 minutes?), it tasted as good as it looked. But 3 stars? Well, I think the Magazine location offers a better pizza and higher quality, in both appearance ans taste. That's too bad, since this location is so close to home.

So while visiting New Orleans, I decided to grab some pizza around the corner from my hotel. Little did I know that I would be getting some of the Best Pizza around. Living in California, I have found 2 good pizza places that deserve a good yelp review. 2 in 28 years. However, the first pizza place I walk into in New Orleans happens to be this place, some of the best pizza I have had. Well Done Slice. Well Done. *slow clap*

What's not to like. Right next door to my hotel, full bar, ice cold beer & a damn decent slice. Stoked. Man I love this town.

Danielle S.
I came to Slice on the recommendation of a friend and I'm not a pizza aficionado by any means unless it's out of a box but this is damn good pizza. I luv that it's thin crust and you can get it by the slice and these aren't a small slice. I've never had pizza in New York City but I've been told it's just as good. Now, my only complaint is that the bartenders (the females) don't ever seem to be eager to wait on other females. Word of advise, we usually tip better than men. But overall, a great place to grab a slice.

Exceptional pizza! I particularly like the special with everything on it. The pies are large and the toppings are fresh.

Always on point with service. Great bar (even for non drinkers) to sit, socialize and eat. Music selection is eclectic. There's no telling what will be up next. Salads are wonderful. I love the arugula. No matter what you put on your slice or pie, you won't be disappointed. Check out the mussels, they're yummy. Don't skip desert.
(4)
Nicole F.
I love that you can order pizza by the slice. I usually get 2 completely different slices, and a fresh salad. Their salads are large and delicious. They also make great sangria and Mojitos. We go to this location a good bit.

Alan S.
Less than $10 for a filling, tasty and unique lunch. Winning! Two slices of pizza was plenty to fill me up. I went with the special of the day which including salmon, capers, a poached egg, and goat cheese on a white slice. It was one of the most interesting pizza experiences I've ever had. It was like Jewish breakfast on a pizza. It was good. My other slice was one of their regular specialties, the sportsman's paradise. This slice included shrimp, sausage, corn among the toppings. A totally different taste experience from my first slice but also good. Not only did I enjoy the food, I enjoyed the experience of all the flavors and being able to have some rather unique items on a pizza. I highly recommend this place even if you have to make the 20-25 minute hike from the french quarter (or take the St. Charles street car if you are lazy!).

The pizza is really great but the staff has problems with things like taking orders and bringing the orders to you. The bartender told me he was too busy to make drinks when I asked for a cocktail at the bar while I waited the 20 minutes for our waiter to come to the table. Later the waiter rolled his eyes at me when I asked for a meat-free slice of the 'spinach and artichoke' pizza - it had arrived coated in bacon. I don't think it is unreasonable to assume that the spinach and artichoke pizza will be meat free, but apparently I am a huge pain in the ass. I would rather go somewhere else where I don't have to feel like it was an honor to receive food that I ordered and would eventually pay for.

Ryan P.
I had high hopes for this place but was disappointed by my lunch here. I got a slice of the andouille and shrimp pizza and veggie pizza. The shrimp was had an off flavor to it and I could really only eat about two bites. The andouille wasn't anything special. The veggie was just okay, almost boring. The dough had very little flavor. The waitress didn't even ask us how our food was or why 3/4 of my pizza was uneaten. Check out the far superior Louisiana Pizza Kitchen instead.

So, like every fucking restaurant in garden/uptown that's not bar food closes at 9 on Sunday, where are we Dayton, oh?!? So me and a friend decide to walk to slice from my place. On the way there we encounter a man who is clearly dressed from a restaurant job (probably a stupid restaurant that closes at 9) who "has to get to DEEP Kenner" and his "friends car overheated" so he needs two dollars for bus fare. First of all what bus goes to Kenner, second of all, maybe you should have asked a coworker I have no cash, so he walk past us and calls me a "fucking bitch." Good start to the meal! We sit down and are Informed mimosas and bloodys are half off. AMAZING. Our waiter is nice and very alt, in fact the whole bar crowd was alt. I could def see our waiters moose knuckle. Pizza was totes dec! (Not as good as New York) Bloodys were pretty good, could use a slice of bacon in them but had okra!

Found this place when I was searching for a quick lunch spot. I had a lunch of pizza and salad, and I have to admit the food was really good. This place has a really great feel to it and the staff is super nice and attentive. I think the location is in a great spot being right on the street car line. Slice has a really nice selection of items and the ingredients are really fresh and tasty.

Eboni F.
One word. Amazing! Had a Spinach salad and the pesto ravioli w/ chicken and bacon. The food was phenomenally fresh and tasty. The roasted tomatoes in the salad were just great. I called ahead for pick-up so when I got it home it was warm. I can only imagine how great it would be getting it straight outta the oven.... Next time I''ll dine in!

Amanda G.
My coworkers and I used to eat lunch here sometimes when I worked downtown. The pizza was ok. The mussels were delish! The service was very slow and we quickly realized that it is not a place to go when you only have an hour for your lunch break. *** EDIT/UPDATE *** Yes - The serivce still leaves much to be desired - however, I have recently fallen in love with "The White Pie." It's yummo & you should try it :)

Shanna D.
We are NOT New York or Chicago, those places are known for their pizza. I've personally experience both and they are hard to beat, but if you live in New Orleans or just visiting and craving a pizza then Slice is the best pizza in town. No pre-made frozen crust here. The crust is thin, light and crispy (corn meal sprinkled on the bottom of the pan makes the crust crispy) you can try it at home when making your own pizza, it works! :) All the topping are fresh and plentiful. Great service and reasonably priced. Order a pitcher of Abita Beer and Enjoy! :)

Love the pizza, but the main reason I go there is the BBQ shrimp. Pretty much in love with it.

FINALLY, I find a place in New Orleans that seems not to be teeming with tourists ... tough to find "locals" places in this town. The chicken, bacon, and basil ravioli were insanely delicious - perfectly cheesy, baked hot in a cast-iron dish, flavorful - the crushed tomato sauce was the perfect foundation on which the other flavors were built, and the fresh basil on top simply POPPED in my mouth. Wonderful. Warm, friendly, accommodating and casual - not to metion very reasonably priced, Slice is a gem ... smack dab on St Charles - easy street parking on the sidestreets.

First, I must stipulate that I am an Italophilic pizza fan, so a place like Slice is starting with a strike against it (Italians know nothing of slices and eat pizza whole, with knife and fork). Despite this, I love Slice and eat there very regularly. The pizza is, obviously, great-thin crusted, little or no char but crispy handle. I love the white pizza with arugula, or the standard cheese with ricotta and mushrooms added. Calzones are enormous and delicious.Their salads, especially the mesculin, are quite good, and they make a decent cacio e pepe pasta. On the minus side, their bruschetta with tomatos and balsamic is borderline inedible. Service can be passive-aggressive, low grade hostile to newcomers unless one is festooned with tattoos and projects a punk rock aura.
(4)
Ernest P.
Nice that the restaurant was only a block from our hotel. Stopped by during happy hour and got a large pitcher of Abita for $5. Orderd mushroom-goat cheese bruschetta which was simple yet perfectly executed. Bread crispy and not too thick. Also had a half salad, perfect portion. BBQ Shrimp was full of flavor, rich and garlicky. Shrimp were not huge but tasted nice and fresh, and were not overcooked. Had a slice of white and a slice of regular. Both delicious, but enjoyed the regular a bit more. In any case the dough was delicious. Would have definitely eaten here again had we more time to spend in town.

Mike C.
Payed a visit to Slice while staying at a B&B on Prytania St. The white pizza was awesome; just like what I used to get while living in the northeast! I'll definitly keep this place in mind if I make it back to New Orleans in the future.
(5)
Nathan M.
Slightly upscale atmosphere with casual joint prices and one of my top go-to places. Slice has a great menu selection for both meat lovers and the veggie people without a qualitative drop in flavor. Like most self respecting pie shop, you can order by the slice which is good for those that are indecisive or have a hankering for a wide variety of flavors. You cannot go wrong with any of the pies. Slice's other menu options are fantastic as well. The Trucker and Roasted Garden calzones are two of my favorite items on their menu and will leave you full without feeling overly stuffed. I cannot comment on the Magazine location, but the staff are great at the St. Charles location. They are always nice and quick with service. If you are looking for a good pizza or Italian lunch or dinner, Slice is definitely the place to go.
(5)
Eleni F.
Probably my favorite pizza in New Orleans. I love that you can get any of their pizzas by the slice, and one is enough to fill you up, wash it down with an Abita amber and I am in pizza heaven. The dough is tender with just the slightest bit of crispyness on the edges, the sauce is smooth and flavorful and the toppings run the gambit. Enjoy!
(5)
Chris C.
Love this place. Where else can you try speciality pizzas by the slice. The prices are very reasonable and one slice is enough for a meal. Everything we have tried has been good. The garlic bread with cheese is great. The MTB Panini (mozzarella, tomato, basil-pesto) is terrific. The ingredients are very fresh. Recent bonus. They now have Aventinus Weizenbock beer on tap from Germany. This is a strong, dark, wheat doppelbock. They serve it in authentic glasses. With 8.2% alcohol, this beer has a kick!
(5)
Allison R.
I keep trying to get into Slice, but every time I go, I keep getting another reason to not like it. There is NOTHING on the menu without cheese on it. When you ask them for something without cheese , either it comes pre-made like that or they just can't do it. The one thing I had ont he menu that was excellent, they took off. Not my favorite place to eat.

Ive been to this place a couple of times but only the last time that I was there did I finally have some good service. From greetin ya at the door to the waittress making sure that I was doing ok. In the past, I thought the food was ok and overpriced including the service was horriendous with the waittress and their nasty ass attitudes. On this last trip to Slice, I met some co-workers there for some pizza. I protested at first, but decided to go ahead and meet them there. I went ahead and ordered the strawberry salad, it was ok, nothing to brag about. Next up, I had the caprese salad. Damn but it was good with that balsamic syrup dressing. I liked that it was the caprese iteself was not drenched in the dressing. Just a subtle toss here and there...perfect. I can still think about those wonderful sliced tomatos with the yummy slices of mozzarella cheese. So light with the perfect compliment of the sweet balsamic syrup. Next, the guys came in and both ordered. The calzone is humungous. The other guy ordered 5 slices of pizza to which the waittress made a bet that he wouldnt finish it. She was right. I ordered a white slice, plain, but that thin and crispy crust has me yearning to come back. Hmmmmmmm....food. Ok, the place is a bit tight and gets crowded fast so you have to hurry if you want to get a table for lunch or dinner. It's cash and credit. As far as family friendly---hmmmm...could be. Parking is offstreet.

(I have only eaten at the Magazine Street location) For years, my favorite pizza in New Orleans has been Roman Pizza on Cohn Street in Uptown. But now I'm thinking I may like Slice even more. Oddly enough, the pizza here seems to taste even better when I just order a slice. When we get an entire pizza, the crust doesn't seem to be quite as crispy and it's a little on the wet side. Still a great pizza, but their pizza by the slice is the best. If you like New York style pizza like me, I think you'll like Slice.
(5)
Prescott R.
Quality pizza joint in NO. I don't say this lightly being originally from NY and love NY Pizza. Though I did not have pizza the calzone I had was fantastic, you could tell all the ingredients were fresh. The vegs and the cheese are on point, the calzone dough was cooked to perfection, crispy and brown on the outside and chew and tasty on the inside. The bar drinks are what you expect in NO, strong and tasty. I had a mango margarita on the rocks....dudes don't drink slushies. They made their own mango infused tequila....now that's a real restaurant.

Thomas C.
Stopped here on Tuesday afternoon for a late lunch: one of their specialty slices and an Abita draft. I can't remark about much on the menu, since I only had one item, but that was terrific, and to judge from the the other plates around me, Slice does it right; all of it looked good---entrees, sandwiches, pies---even on a rainy Tuesday at 2:30pm. Can't imagine pizza getting much better in NOLA (though if you're looking for New York style, continue onward). Good atmosphere and service, the only drawback being the tight parking off St. Charles.

Anthony H.
I'm from Nevada/California so the South is new for me. The vibe of this place is off the hook. The chef's are bumping tunes and dancing while they cook. Our waiter was super helpful and knowledgable about the beer and the food. Just a good dude. He recommended the BBQ Shrimp app Boy and it was PHENOMENAL. One of the best meals I've ever had. If you come here GET THE PO BOY!!!

How could you take the meatballs off the menu?! I heard 5 people ask and complain about it. BEFORE ME! I only started coming here. I had them 2 times and they are gone!!! WHY?! WHY?! WHY?! WHY?! PLEASE BRING BACK THE MEATBALLS OR WE'LL STOP COMiNG!!!!!! So sad about this... You ruined my Tuesday :(

Benjamin G.
I ordered the Margherita from Slice on a Sunday afternoon. The delivery time was great, it only took about 30 minutes which I was shocked about. The price I felt was a little high but I'm not complaining because it seems like what most pizzerias are getting to now. I could tell that the pizza was hot before I even opened the box, which is always a plus. The issue came when I opened the box to dive in. The cheese had all melted back together so the slices were very hard to pull apart, ended up having to recut them. Then the pizza was just very flimsy. You could not pick up a slice and just eat it at all. The crust was very thin and soaked all the way through. The flavor was good but overall I wasn't very satisfied with the pizza, may try again eating in their restaurant.

Joel M.
Had this location bookmarked and figured since had the kids with me in NOLA we'd give it a try... kids love pizza... Found it easy on St. Charles, parking was a breeze, found street parking right in front of St. Charles Tavern... when we walked in about 6ish on a Saturday just a couple of people at the bar but we were the only diners.. Lotta pizza for the price.... me and the boy split a medium Meat Lovers and it was plenty for a 16 year old boy with me, the Dad, not having to worry if he was gonna plow through the whole thing.... the baby girl wanted to try white pizza and I was happy that any pizza was offered by the slice... she went with a white slice with bacon and fresh basil and really loved it... However, in my humble opinion, the kids really loved the Garlic Bread with Red Gravy appetizer...I was lucky to get one piece of that garlic bread! Our waitress, didn't get her name but she has 2 6-shooters tattooed on her upper chest, was excellent, friendly and timely... plus the Leinenkugel Summer Shandy they were offering on tap hit the spot! All in all one helluva enjoyable stop and meal and brought it in for a damn reasonable price!

Wendy R.
Slices after a late night in the warehouse district- I was sooo excited to see this place and my food. I especially like that you can order all of their specialty pizzas by the slice. Even finished off my meal with a chocolate cookie- because ya'know sometimes you need a cookie. Best.Cookie.Ever!

Keandra R.
I frequent here quite often...possibly two to three times a month. And I love it. The staff is uber friendly and welcoming...and the location is great. The front of the restaurant is kinda setup like a "shotgun" New Orleans style house, but the back has more seating for larger groups. Whether ordering at the bar, getting take out, or having a quick sit down lunch I'm usually pretty pleased. The food....now I can't lie...I usually never venture from a slice and half salad, but it fills you up and for exactly $10.70 you can't be mad. The D'Luxe, Veggie, and Sportsman slices are my fave. The less than 5 star rating comes in for the hit or miss on the salads. The Mescluin salad (petite greens and seasonal fruit) was exceptionally WARM today. It appeared that nothing was refrigerated...not the greens, not the lettuce, not the dressing...NOTHING! And on another occasion I've had a greek salad, while cold, the lettuce was a lime green color. Not green like lettuce should be...so I'm sure I ate a salad that had no nutritional value. Even with those hiccups, its still one of my favorite go to places for a slice. I'll have to venture and try the mussels and the BBQ shrimp po-boy that I see others raving about.

If Iron Maiden is on when you walk through the door you are going really mess up the food to not get five stars from this guy. In all serious Slice is a great place is New Orleans for a slice in a town that typically sells whole pies. Chow down on the broccoli & mushroom while Bruce Dickinson belts out can I play with madness and other metal hits. Local beers, from NOLA brewing and Abita as well as PBR and the like! Enjoy!

Tiffany C.
While visiting NOLA I went here three times. It was that good, and this is from a Chicago gal who loves her pizza. Service is excellent. Super cute hipster vibe inside. Nice to sit at the bar or really nice to just take it and go. Everything is served within about 15minutes after you order and is fresh with the best ingredients. I had the veggie pizza, their mushroom pizza, their broccoli pizza, their spinach and goat cheese calzone, their meat lovers pizza. All were fantastic. The best of the bunch in my opinion was the all veggie. JUST DO IT AND EAT HERE!

We enjoy Slice, it's a neighborhood standby for Pizza. Very disappointed with the recent change to the menu. It was nice to come in and get a pasta bowl, I guess we'll have to find another spot for pasta. Ohhh well... :(

Joe Bert O.
WOW! This meal was awesome. Our waitress, Jessika, was friendly, helpful, i ordered the calzone, which was delightfully made with a white sauce and delicious toppings I chose. it came with steaming-hot (homemade) dipping sauce. My partner had a meat lovers pizza, which (due to the nature of the toppings) was a little salty but tasty but a little soggy-a result of the toppings and sauce. I loved every minute of my experience and look forward to my next visit.

Honestly the best vegan pizza around and only $20 for a large (that is really a large). The crust is so delicious. The sauce is great! I drive from Luling to get this pizza! The servers are always accommodating and helpful with the menu items.

Underwhelmed. Underwhelmed to the point of annoyance. I sat at the bar. I asked, "what kind of pizza do you folks have here?" I always ask this because I LOVE PIZZA. I explained that I am a transplant...I'm used to New York and Boston pizza. Normally that is a conversation starter in and of itself....this bartender is getting married guys. She does not have time to talk about pizza! The response should have been an indication for me to walk away. "uhmm it's pizza. so, you know. it's pizza.Plus I'm getting married so I want to talk about getting married." She didn't say the last part.... Once I asked her to go into a bit more detail ....thin crust? greasy? deep dish? she began reading the ingredients to me. Then the bartender, who is getting married, took my drink order. When I told her that I would just be having a club soda at the moment, I learned that Andrew wasn't drinking for Lent. He might be drinking on St. Patrick's Day. Do I think that counts as not drinking???? The more right I write the more annoyed I am getting. The first slice I got was good. I liked the texture, the cheese...I thought they were a bit stingy on the marinara. I noticed to my chagrin when I placed my order at 5:02 that they had a 2/1 Happy Hour Special. I ordered another piece anyway. This one came out like a weathered shingle. It was burned. I could actually crack the pizza in half. Breakable pizza is sooo 2012. Anyway, I mentioned that the slice was "well done" and she sent it back. The new slice came out.....raw basically. I ate it. She didn't check on me again, so I guess it didn't matter what I felt about the second slice anyway. I will go try another location I guess, but I would not recommend this place, based on the service alone.

We went to Slice twice during our honeymoon because it was really good pizza and it was very close to the B&B we stayed in. We had the same waitress both times and she was very pleasant and efficient. You really get to customize your pizza and even if you only want a few slices, they'll still make it how you want it. The first time I got two slices of a pesto based pizza with caramelized onions, goat cheese and salmon. Mouth wateringly delicious. The next time my husband and I split a pie and unfortunately the waitress told the kitchen a red sauce base when we asked for a white sauce, but we didn't want to waste it so we ate it any way. Still very good. Great little pizza place with a friendly staff and they are also open really late which is nice.

You wouldn't think it, but this pizzeria has the best BBQ shrimp po boy I've ever had. It is plenty rich, but they use quite a bit of Worcester sauce to help cut through all that richness. The shrimp are huge too. I dropped one on the floor and cried. There are a ton on the sandwich, but that didn't make losing one hurt any less. The Pizza is great too, an especially wonderful option during Parade Season. . I'm never really blown away by the food options on St Charles, but this place is a great exception to that. And that BBQ Shrimp PO-boy!

The pizza was greaaaaat!! It's a great spot to chill & eat on you're day off from work lol I didn't have the pasta but the person behind me did & it looked great. They seemed to enjoy it. I'm excited to go back & try it out.

A rarity in my food travels- 5 stars! I have never heard these words from my wife, "don't know how anyone can make an Italian salad taste this good but they have done it!" The pizza was really awesome. A medium pie left my seventeen year old and I full, walking out with two pieces unconsumed. The service was awesome, patient, and friendly. Plus one star for the incredibly attentive and friendly waitress. Heck, they might think about changing New Orleans slogan to the Big Slice because of this place.

Found our way to SLICE on St. Charles! Great food and staff!!! We really enjoyed it!!! Waiter was helpful and staff was helpful getting us back to how to reach our car via bus!!
This seems to be the Uptown go-to for pizza, but I've never really understood what the fuss is about. I tried Slice for the first time years ago, dining in at their St. Charles location. I remember being underwhelmed, but not dissatisfied. After seeing a forum on Facebook about the best place for pizza in New Orleans, and seeing all of the Slice voters, I decided to give it another try to change my opinion. Margherita has always been my favorite pizza, so I tried theirs. It's a four cheese take on the margherita. Nope. Entirely too much cheese for what is supposed to be an understated pizza that relies on simple, quality toppings. The crust in the middle of the pizza was soggy from the massive amount of greasy cheese sitting on top of it. I couldn't even taste the basil, which for me, has always been the best part of a good margherita. I had to wonder if it was fresh basil. Sauce and crust were otherwise not notable. Pizza is pizza. You're never really going to be mad at it. But I will continue to wonder what the fuss is about when it comes to Slice.

Great pizzeria! Seemed to be full of locals, which is always a plus. My husband had the meat lovers calzone. Loved it so much, he had it two nights in a row! First time, I tried the penne pasta dish, which was ok, and next time I tried the cheese calzone. My calzone broke while in the oven, so they brought me a piece of cheese pizza to hold me over. Pizza was good, but the calzone was better! Definitely recommend!

ALways good pizza! Lots of good options for toppings. Similar to NYC style, but not 100%. New Orleans is definitely not known for Pizza, but slice does good pizza for any area of the country

The Pizza here is ok. I felt like I was eating a premium version of Dominos Pizza. The reason I gave the place 4 stars is because it makes for a great bar as well as customer service and location is great.

Ugh! That's what I get for not reading Yelp before going to a restaurant. Came here tonight to dine for LASPCA's Pause 4 Paws. Overall not a great experience. Parking- it's on St. Charles with no reserved parking lot like other restaurants around. I parked around the block. No biggie since I could always use the exercise. But I didn't like the two homeless people parked outside that were literally following people when they left. I know it's not their fault, but it's a huge creep factor. They could have stopped the solicitors from sitting outside their establishment then stalking their patrons that happen to carry big purses (empty of cash, btw.) This will definitely prevent any women (or self-preserving men) from eating here. I don't like looking behind me the entire time I'm walking to my car, which was around the block from the place. As soon as I rounded the corner, I just RAN to my car. Food- Ordered the large mesclun salad: mixed greens, fresh goat cheese, crushed pecans, fresh strawberries and blueberries served with a homemade balsamic vinaigrette. It was a yummy salad but definitely wasn't a large portion. I've seen small salads bigger than that (i.e. Midway, Theo's, Katie's-just to name a few) Priced at $9, I was honestly hoping it would fill me up. Not even close. Drinks- ordered the special of the night. Name escapes me but it was basically two shots of bourbon served anyway you like. I'm a simple girl so I opted for a bourbon and coke. Bartender was nice, and the drink was pretty stiff. Didn't need another one the entire meal. For $5, thought it was a steal- especially when it was Maker's Mark. Service- horrendous. Server was quite rude with us from the moment we sat down. We went there for a meeting and was expecting 4-5 people. Half of the party showed up first and we were seated for about 10-15 mins. before more arrived. Not once did he ask to refill our drinks (we had all ordered our drinks from the bar but there was an empty beer glass that could have been refilled with some refreshing deliciousness) nor did he ask if we wanted any appetizers. When the final person got there, he immediately asked if we were ready to order. She hadn't even sat down at that point. So we asked for 5 mins. which he huffed then stomped away. When we were done with our food, he asked if we were ready for the bill. No questions of dessert or salad. And even though our party only ended up being 4 people, he still added a gratuity on there! We were all quite surprised since restaurants don't usually add a grat for parties smaller than 6. Not sure why he felt a need to express his frustrations on his tables. So this experience definitely soured this location for me. From here on, think I'm going to stick to the Magazine location. And just get their pizza or that BBQ shrimp po-boy everyone is raving about.

Update. I have been back 3 times in the last 8 months and its been horrible each time. I dont know whats going on. Looks like they have cut back on quality. And whoever is cooking the pizzas just dont give a damn. The last two times my pizza crust was soggy. I mean saturated, you could squeeze the water out of it literally. I THINK they are putting frozen toppings on and in the cooking process it melts causing the crust to become ...well, just unpleasant. Someone told me that they sent their best workers to the Magazine street location. Probably true since everyone inside now looks really out of it. Im done with this location.

My review of this Slice will be remarkably similar to my review of the Magazine location. Why? Because despite several trips here, I cannot get enough of their BBQ shrimp po boy. This location seems smaller than the Magazine location. There are booths along the wall and three tables up toward the front. The tables in the front are somewhat close together so if the restaurant is full you should expect to hear your neighboring tables conversations. Service was very good. Our server was friendly, had a sense of humor and was very prompt. As far as service goes, it was better at this location. Parking is still an issue, but it is at most uptown restaurants. I actually parked in the Houston's lot even though several signs warned me not to. I don't suggest you do that in case you get towed, I don't want the blame. The real reason you should visit is the BBQ shrimp po boy. Trust me on this. It is so good that you will try and find a way to soak up all of the excess sauce. I used a form and knife to cut my bread at the end, flipped it over and sopped it all up. Use my method, or devise your own, but you will want this sauce. On this visit one of the group ordered a pizza. It looked and smelled amazing. One of these days I will have to actually try the pizza. Until then I will keep enjoying that po boy.

Came here twice for lunch during my 15 day boondoggle in NOLA. 11:45 on a weekday it was half packed and was able to get in and out in 45 minutes. $12 for a slice, a small salad, water and tip! Italian salad was hearty with lots of ingredients. A little salty (lots of olives) for my California taste buds but good enough that I ordered it both times. Between the meat lovers slice and the special slice w shrimp, I would rank the special higher. Toppings were fresh and the thin crust was slightly crunchy just like it should be. The decor is an after thought and the feel is old, but I came here for the food. Interesting tho ... I didn't know that pizza grew on trees as the wall paper in the bathroom suggest!!! I better read Wikipedia more often! 4 stars for the food quality. 3 stars for the service. 2 stars for atmosphere. Would come here again but wouldn't go too much out of my way.

We split a half salad and a medium Siciliana Marinara pizza and it was too much food. The pizza was cooked to perfection with a nice chew to the crust... not to mention to abundance of great fresh peppery arugula that topped the pizza. Service was quick and attentive. Decent selection on tap, as well.

Brent C.
Skip the high priced tourist traps on Bourbon Street and come here instead for delicious, local pizza. The atmosphere is casual but clean, and the pizza has never disappointed us. We come to New Orleans at least once each year, and Slice is always on our short list of restaurants where we have to eat.

After being on the road for 4 hours, the BF and I we were in the mood for some good thin crust pizza. I love Slice and hadn't been in ages, and he had never been, so away we went. The atmosphere at Slice is a little off being that it's a really long and narrow space. That aspect doesn't bother me, it just feels...odd. The service at Slice is always friendly and attentive. No complaints. I really love the pizza at Slice! I LOVE LOVE LOVE how many choices you have that you can order by the slice. We got the standard Pepperoni, the BBG which was a white pizza with smoked bacon, fresh basil, roasted and fresh garlic, the PGA which was procuitto di parma, imported gorgonzola, organic arugula, and the specialty Mac n' Cheese pizza, which had pasta and a ton of bacon and cheese on it. I wasn't sure how that would work for a pizza, but the server said it was amazing. He was right. My boyfriend wasn't a huge fan of the PGA, but he loved the BBG. I thought they were all yummalicious. The prices are extremely reasonable. We got two slices of pizza each, we shared an Italian salad, I had 2 mimosas, and my BF had 2 beers, and our bill was $31! Can I say again how much I love Slice? If I had one complain, the only one would be that I would've liked my pizza to be hotter. I like my food to be insanely hot. Tip: Mimosas are $3.50 all day on Sundays!

Christopher A.
A great dive pizzeria. Twice I got the Sportsman, once as a slice and again as a calzone. This was easily the best slice of pizza I can remember. The garlic bread is also amazing. The staff is very friendly and the atmosphere is rough and kind of hipster-y, but in a good way. This is the type of pizza joint you want to visit. It's also right next door to The Streetcar Inn, so definitely hit it up if you're staying there.

It's a shame that this place has such mixed reviews. Thankfully I had a great experience. This was our part 1 of 2 for lunch, and we made it apparent to our waitress, and she didn't mind at all. Most other servers look so disappointed to find that we would each only order 1 slice, but she was nice enough to even offer to have each of our slices cut in half so that sharing was easier. We had the PGA and Sportsman's Paradise. I preferred the PGA, as the shrimp on the Sportsman's Paradise seemed to be slightly overcooked to me. I did enjoy the crunch and flavor of the crust. The toppings overall worked well together. If only I lived much closer to this place...I would go at least once a week to take advantage of the fact that they offer their specialty pizzas by the slice!

Leslie M.
It seems rumours of Slice's decline are true. I was informed by the stoned-sounding person who answered the phone that delivery would be 1 hour, and then that their delivery minimum has increased to $15. I was going to get the spaghetti and meatballs out of sheer laziness, as I have before; their pizza has become increasingly flavorless. Oh, well, there's now Dolce Vita!

This location of Slice Pizzeria is smaller than the one on Magazine Street. It feels pretty crowded and the tables are too close to one another. I don't like that neighboring diners can hear my conversation. However, Slice Pizzeria makes the best BBQ shrimp poboy that I've ever had so I jumped at the chance to have lunch with a few fellow Yelpers here and I'd jump at the chance to do it again. Of course, I ordered the BBQ shrimp poboy and savored every single bite of it. It's really the very best poboy I've ever had of its kind. I also ordered a salad on this visit. Mesclun Salad with balsamic vinergrette...petite greens, goat cheese, pecans, fresh berries. It was delicious as well. I love Slice and honestly if the restaurant was in a cardboard box, I'd still go for that BBQ shrimp poboy. My preferred location is the one on Magazine, though. If you haven't tried that poboy, do yourself a favor and order one. You're welcome.

Our second time here this week while visiting NOLA. Very close to our hotel so made it easy. But if not it would still be worth it. Large pizza was great for family of four. We are pizza snobs and it didn't disappoint. My daughters had to have the Brookie a la mode and it was very tasty. The staff has been super friendly. A great spot.

Melissa H.
This is such a perfect pizza dive. The pies are spectacular, with high quality toppings and the magic balance of crispy/chewy in their signature crust. As the name suggests, you can buy by the slice. But whole pies are tempting options as well. The creative craft cocktail menu deserves your attention. Standard and special concoctions turn out consistently delicious, visit after visit.

Juan H.
I was expecting some seriously great tasting pizza but was a little disappointed. I'm in the Bay Area, so fresh Amici pizza is the bomb, and I thought Slice would be similar. It was not. We had it delivered, so maybe that was part of it. By the time we got it, from down the street and an hour later, it wasn't hot and the thin crust wasn't very crisp. We asked for extra cheese, but if there was extra cheese, it would have had none without paying for the extra! All in all I cannot recommend it, but I think maybe if you walk in, you might have a better experience.

Friends and acquaintances, I would like to express my outrage. Most of you know me enough to understand that it takes a lot to truly piss me off. Also i have traveled and dined in restaurants in 3/4 of this country. So when I say that I received the absolutely worst service of my life, you know that i am being serious. Now that we got that disclaimer out of the way and you are still reading this.... here is the story. We came into Slices Pizza at 9:30 pm on a Saturday night in New Orleans, we all had about 3 double margaritas and were tipsy. We sat down at a booth and proceed to have a conversation about graphite as an art form. We were loud and there were quite a few fucks and shits thrown into the conversation. Next to us was a family having dinner, the kids at the table were heard to swear like dock workers by one of the members of our group in the bathroom. After we ordered food we were asked to keep the cussing to a low, while a song called big pimping was playing in the background. For those who do not know the song here are some of the lyrics. "You know I - thug em, fuck em, love em, leave em Cause I don't fuckin need em Take em out the hood, keep em lookin good But I don't fuckin feed em First time they fuss I'm breezin Talkin bout, "What's the reasons?" I'm a pimp in every sense of the word, bitch Better trust than believe em In the cut where I keep em til I need a nut, til I need to beat the guts Then it's, beep beep and I'm pickin em up Let em play with the dick in the truck Many chicks wanna put Jigga fist in cuffs Divorce him and split his bucks" Never mind the hypocrisy involved in that request, we toned it down. Our food was delivered to us with polite smile and a fuck you, which is fine. As the common saying at my work goes "fuck em if they can't take a joke". This is where I got pissed off enough to walk out and not pay, which I did not do. We received no silverware, I had to finally walk to the server stand and grab silverware and napkins so we could enjoy our meal. The only time the server walked up to us was when i was extremely vocal about not tipping and walking out on the bill because we received almost no service. The server approached we with an extremely rude "did you want something". And my only regret is being caught of guard by this and saying "no we are fine". At this point I put cash down for my meal and walked the fuck out, because I was too pissed off to do anything else. So thanks you Slices Pizzeria for being the only low point in my otherwise amazing NOLA experience. Please comment on this because I would like to know if I was in the wrong here. And if you are ever in New Orleans please stay away from Slices Pizzeria because this town is full of amazing restaurants with fantastic service and the risk of ruining your experience is not worth the good food they serve.

The first thing I've got to say about the crew at Slice is that at 10:59 pm on a weekday they still took care of me and made a handcrafted pie! None of that "sorry but the kitchen is closed" BS; they were open and took care of me. Thank you, Slice! Now for the pizza... I had a pepperoni and black olive finished with some Parmesan and crushed red pepper. It was delightful! The crust was nice and toasty on the bottom with just a hint of crunch. Who in their right mind wants soggy crust?! I've had lots of good pizza, and some not so good (I don't subscribe to that whole any pizza is good pizza thing), but the pizza from Slice will hit your top 10 for sure, maybe even the #1 spot depending on your personal taste. Give it a shot!

Christopher W.
All pizza in New Orleans must be compared to the greatness that is Pizza Delicious and this pizza is ok but not even close. They have more of a selection then PD but the quality and crust are no where near as good. If your uptown this is not a bad option for pizza but for me its just ok.

Thomas D.
Enjoyable pizza joint with good choices. Interesting crust, can't quite putt finger on its uniqueness. It's crispy, like how deep dish can be, but it's more NYC style. I like to stop in with out of town friends after exploring the LGD.

Still have mad love for this place. Went in on Saturday night, about 10, grabbed a table easily. This time we split a medium PGA pizza with prosciutto di parma, imported gorgonzola, organic arugula. Fan-freakin-tastic! I would definitely get this pie again. They say "honey by request" under the description of this pie. Well, I was intrigued, let me try this with honey! Crazy enough, totally worked. They brought a small side of honey, dripped it lightly on my PGA slice, perfect bite! Slice is still my favorite.

Josh F.
A great place to chill out, have a great slice of pizza (or several) and a few beers. This is my "go-to" joint for pizza. The best part about their pizza is that they have a number of selections that can be ordered by the slice, giving people the opportunity to try as many as they can handle in one sitting. I recently tried the salad they have that has salmon on it and it's great too. Twice I've ordered it and it's my new personal favorite. They've updated their menu and removed a few things. My favorite perk to this place is that, when we ask, they will still serve one of our favorite items that they removed.

Some of the better pizza in New Orleans. It gets an extra star from me because they sell by the slice. After living in Brooklyn, this is vital.

Oh man. Delicious. I'm going to miss this place when I go back to Virginia tomorrow. I'm here for the second time in as many days. Great atmosphere, DELICIOUS food! I highly recommend the mussels appetizer, the Flying Hawaiian, the Meat Lovers, and the gelato. There is local artwork for sale hanging on the walls if you have a few hundred bucks to kill.

When you first walk in, Slice is a dank lite hole-in-the-wall. But don't judge a pizzeria by it's digs! Let me first say the prices were great - we went for dinner and got three slices, two half salads, mussels, gelato, and a pitcher of beer for $50 (including tip!). The Mesclun Salad is delicious. Full of color and flavor, it's something you would expect to see in an upscale restaurant. I had the Margherita Pizza - which, despite it's simplicity, had the perfect combination of sauce, cheese, and toppings on a not-too-crispy thin crust. GET THE MUSSELS. If you like shellfish, you will LOVE these - I could have eaten my body weight in this appetizer. The white wine sauce was amazing. Also, half price pitchers on Tuesdays!

This place is amazing. It's a local place near the hotel I was staying in. The staff at slice is incredibly friendly and make some great recommendations. This isn't a fast food place, so don't expect your food to come out right after you order. They make everything from scratch. I recommend getting the pizzas and calzones. The pizza are so unique and you can make your own calzones. The place is small, but it's super cozy. Here's what I got: -shrimp and andouille sausage pizza -calzone with ricotta and prosciutto I'll be back again when I'm down in the bayou, lol

This is the perfect crust, perfect fresh toppings, perfect drink specials pizza joint in all of my rotation of pizza options. I appreciate that the "by the slice" option is quite possibly the same size of pizza as a "small" anywhere else. One slice is perfect for lunch and I like to pair it with a salad. I love the BBG pizza which is a white pizza with bacon, basil, and garlic. The four cheese margherita is also delicious if you're looking for something a little more traditional. The best best part is that you can add on any extra toppings you like TO A SLICE! You can't even do that in New York! Bah! If you're hankering for pizza during the football season they have a weekly pizza in honor of the opposing team so you can EAT DAT and we all feel like a bit of a winner. You're welcome Drew! I love you, Slice. Thank you for fulfilling all of my pizza desires.

Dear Gluten Free Friends.... Get ready to embrace your love and lust for thin crust pizza with fresh toppings once again! Made in house and fresh weekly, Slice makes the best gluten free pizza crust hands down. Yes, even good enough that your gluten loving friends will embrace sharing this medium pie with you without hesitation. Don't overlook the delicious salads with homemade salad dressings that will make you feel like the woes of the world have slightly melted. The shrimp appetizer is deliciously... really I've never seen anyone walk away here hungry. Oh, and if you are thirsty - don't worry the full stocked bar runs great specials and makes a good every day cocktail. To top it all off the staff has always been friendly with unique personalities providing smiles to customers.

Everything I've had here is REALLY good...time tested and grown up approved...BBQ shrimp is my favorite, however, the meatballs are delightful as well... The pizza is thin crust...which is a comfort and tradition from the NE that was a really good call on Slice's part...YES! Still awesome....staff works hard and enjoys where they are... Which says something.

Reasonably priced but the pizza didn't have much flavor, very plain, needs more seasonings. Rude on the phone, stingy on Ranch. I wouldn't eat here again.

Cristen F.
This is my favorite pizza place in town. I love the crust - not too thick, not too thin. It's made with part cornflour or cornmeal so is crispier than most crusts, which I prefer. The sauce is fantastic and there is almost anything you'd consider putting on a pizza for toppings. I generally go with the Greek add chicken or meatball with peppers. The meatballs are wonderful. It's also a good choice for lunch to get a slice with a small side salad.
(5)
Katherine M.
Slice used to be one of my favorite quick meals in NOLA, but I've found that the quality of pies has been a bit inconsistent. Slice's pies now seem to all have a very thick, chewy crust that's a far cry from the thinner-crusted pies they used to churn out on a regular basis. Overdoing the cheese and undercooking pizzas also seems to be an issue, further complicated when you've added toppings. I've found that individual slices are often an acceptable remedy, as they seem more thoroughly cooked and less heavy on the cheese. You can also order your pie on the side of well done, and they'll be happy to accommodate your request. That all being said, Slice's sauce is among my favorites, and they'll usually offer you some on the side if you're a tomato fanatic like I am. The specialty pizzas offer great and slightly unexpected combinations of toppings that turn out to be better than imagined, especially the bacon, basil, and garlic pie. The mesclun is my favorite salad, with always-fresh berries, walnuts, and goat cheese, although the quality of the greens isn't always the greatest. I wish they still offered the balsamic vinaigrette with this salad, as now you're left to add your own combo of oil and vinegar. Lastly, Slice has wonderful happy hour specials, and it's a great place to gather with a medium-sized group after work.

I couldn't face one more conversation re: dinner. After a long day of work & school, standing over a stove was the last thing I was worried about. Pizza to the rescue! Slice offered everything I needed: hot, fresh pizza, ready and waiting for me when I arrived within the timeframe I was given over the phone. It was a little soggy by the time I got it home (5 minutes?), it tasted as good as it looked. But 3 stars? Well, I think the Magazine location offers a better pizza and higher quality, in both appearance ans taste. That's too bad, since this location is so close to home.

So while visiting New Orleans, I decided to grab some pizza around the corner from my hotel. Little did I know that I would be getting some of the Best Pizza around. Living in California, I have found 2 good pizza places that deserve a good yelp review. 2 in 28 years. However, the first pizza place I walk into in New Orleans happens to be this place, some of the best pizza I have had. Well Done Slice. Well Done. *slow clap*

Slice does both standard and eccentric pizza offerings by the pie or slice. I had 2 slices: Andouille and shrimp, prosciutto Gorgonzola and arugula. Excellent, both. The Greek pizza was also calling. The daily special included a salmon with capers. Notes - Nobody working there was over 30, so it had a young, artistic, hip vibe. Really relaxed and fun to watch young artisans (the cooks) do pizza so well. - Wine menu included around 20 selections by the glass or bottle, which ran $24-$44/bottle. - Full bar with 3-5 selections of each spirits, ranging from well to super premium. - Service was excellent at 6pm on a Thursday, not terribly crowded, but constant flow of customers. - If you're a tourist, its right off of the St. Charles Street Car line next to VooDoo BBQ (also good). Perfect place for a light lunch. I would follow it up with a stop by Creole Creamery, a bit further up the St Charles line, off of Prytania in the UGD. - Hours 11 am to 11 pm

I know this is going to seem unlikely but believe it or not, Slice is probably one of my favorite restaurants in New Orleans.... yeah, I know right... a pizza joint *rolls eyes* But there's something about this place that just does it for me. I love the decor, it's casual, modern and comfortable and they always showcase the work of really cool local artists (mostly photographers). The menu is varied (not like most of your pizza joints that only give typical calzone/pizza options) and I have to say one of my favorite dishes is the Mesclun Salad, IT'S OUT OF THIS WORLD!! A sweet the mixture of berries, with goat cheese and vinaigrette, absolutely blissful, tastes like seduction. The Slices are huge and super reasonably priced considering they use fresh ingredients. My favorite night is half-priced bottle of wine Tuesday nights, and they serve Famega! (a delightful green grape wine that goes really well with pizza) As if this weren't enough, if you are a hipster like myself you'll love all the eye candy that works here (boys and girls alike ;)

I came to Slice on the recommendation of a friend and I'm not a pizza aficionado by any means unless it's out of a box but this is damn good pizza. I luv that it's thin crust and you can get it by the slice and these aren't a small slice. I've never had pizza in New York City but I've been told it's just as good. Now, my only complaint is that the bartenders (the females) don't ever seem to be eager to wait on other females. Word of advise, we usually tip better than men. But overall, a great place to grab a slice.

I love slice. I love slice for their white pizza with basil. I love slice for their giant pieces at small prices. I love slice for their italian cream sodas. I love slice for being open lunch and dinner. Yep. This pizza is done with flavorful ingredients and the white pizza is the closest I can get to the way we always had it on visits to jersey. Hush... the white pizza and hoagies in jersey are fanastic (and let's not forget about water ice or the fact the italian ice is a completely different animal) even if the jersey shore crew makes me either want to murder them or blind myself in order to forget what a bad name they give the place.... Umm... anyway.... I've never been disapointed in the fare or with getting on of those wodden booths in the much quiter back room. Being up in the front is always an adventure too being that close to the open pizza staff always makes for a great dining experience. Go... enjoy yourself... relax... this is what real pizza done well is all about.

Always on point with service. Great bar (even for non drinkers) to sit, socialize and eat. Music selection is eclectic. There's no telling what will be up next. Salads are wonderful. I love the arugula. No matter what you put on your slice or pie, you won't be disappointed. Check out the mussels, they're yummy. Don't skip desert.

I adore Slice, and I go there every time I get the opportunity. It's nice to sit in the restaurant and watch all the people come and go. Service inside is very good. When you have a Slice craving but can't sit a spell, you can always pick up your order to go. Favorite pizza: Prosciutto Arugula Gorgonzola. The pastas are also very well cooked and delicious. I highly recommend the aglio olio pasta.

I love that you can order pizza by the slice. I usually get 2 completely different slices, and a fresh salad. Their salads are large and delicious. They also make great sangria and Mojitos. We go to this location a good bit.

This is my go-to restaurant for anytime I want to eat out. I'm pretty sure my wife gets tired of me always suggesting we go. I never get sick of it and don't think I ever will. The pizza is delicious. $2 PBRs can't be beat. $5 Abita Amber pitchers during happy hour. Hip atmosphere. Everything about this place is great, especially the price. I take all of my friends who visit from out of town here. I'm pretty sure they're getting tired of it too. I don't understand how.

Less than $10 for a filling, tasty and unique lunch. Winning! Two slices of pizza was plenty to fill me up. I went with the special of the day which including salmon, capers, a poached egg, and goat cheese on a white slice. It was one of the most interesting pizza experiences I've ever had. It was like Jewish breakfast on a pizza. It was good. My other slice was one of their regular specialties, the sportsman's paradise. This slice included shrimp, sausage, corn among the toppings. A totally different taste experience from my first slice but also good. Not only did I enjoy the food, I enjoyed the experience of all the flavors and being able to have some rather unique items on a pizza. I highly recommend this place even if you have to make the 20-25 minute hike from the french quarter (or take the St. Charles street car if you are lazy!).

I'm pretty pumped that I'll get a free glass of wine with my next check in. I wish it were beer, but hey I'll give it away. Some of the gals and I like to gab here on Mondays and pretend like we are on Sex in the City. (I'm Charlotte.) We like it because the bill is usually pretty low and place is quiet enough to hear ourselves blab. They offer 1/2 price appetizers and beer and wine specials on Mondays until 6pm, so we pop in after work. Even with regular menu prices you can get a filling slice of pizza for around $4 and a salad with berries for around $3.50. An added bonus? The waitstaff is attentive, friendly, and kinda cute.

The pizza is really great but the staff has problems with things like taking orders and bringing the orders to you. The bartender told me he was too busy to make drinks when I asked for a cocktail at the bar while I waited the 20 minutes for our waiter to come to the table. Later the waiter rolled his eyes at me when I asked for a meat-free slice of the 'spinach and artichoke' pizza - it had arrived coated in bacon. I don't think it is unreasonable to assume that the spinach and artichoke pizza will be meat free, but apparently I am a huge pain in the ass. I would rather go somewhere else where I don't have to feel like it was an honor to receive food that I ordered and would eventually pay for.

Found this place after looking at Yelp reviews and were not disappointed. We ate here while riding the St. Charles streetcar. This was our first stop before heading to the Garden District and the Audubon Park. I had a muffaletta and my boyfriend had a slice of the shrimp and andouille sausage pizza. The muffaletta was awesome and not overly huge or out of control in size. The pizza divine - tasty and unique with the special regional flavors. The service was great and they kept the ice tea coming - refills are key. The decor was comfortable and cool and the location was perfect. Would definitely go back.

I had high hopes for this place but was disappointed by my lunch here. I got a slice of the andouille and shrimp pizza and veggie pizza. The shrimp was had an off flavor to it and I could really only eat about two bites. The andouille wasn't anything special. The veggie was just okay, almost boring. The dough had very little flavor. The waitress didn't even ask us how our food was or why 3/4 of my pizza was uneaten. Check out the far superior Louisiana Pizza Kitchen instead.

So, like every fucking restaurant in garden/uptown that's not bar food closes at 9 on Sunday, where are we Dayton, oh?!? So me and a friend decide to walk to slice from my place. On the way there we encounter a man who is clearly dressed from a restaurant job (probably a stupid restaurant that closes at 9) who "has to get to DEEP Kenner" and his "friends car overheated" so he needs two dollars for bus fare. First of all what bus goes to Kenner, second of all, maybe you should have asked a coworker I have no cash, so he walk past us and calls me a "fucking bitch." Good start to the meal! We sit down and are Informed mimosas and bloodys are half off. AMAZING. Our waiter is nice and very alt, in fact the whole bar crowd was alt. I could def see our waiters moose knuckle. Pizza was totes dec! (Not as good as New York) Bloodys were pretty good, could use a slice of bacon in them but had okra!

My GO-TO pizza place in NOLA. You can't get pizza any better than this. It's impressive and the combinations of pizzas they have are excellent. The name of the establishment represents how they sell their pizzas, by the SLICE unlike most places. Upon entering you seat yourself and the open kitchen is great actually. There are tables in the front, booths in the middle and a bar in the back somewhat like a pub type atmosphere. The wait staff is always friendly and prompt. You can never leave here unhappy!

I was in New Orleans for business and didn't want to deal with the craziness of the French Quarter for dinner. After reading a few reviews, I picked Slice. Service was good and very friendly. I started with the mesclun salad with berries and goat cheese. It was excellent. I could have just eaten that. What I liked about Slice is that you could order individual slices -- and it's not just a heated piece of pizza with toppings thrown on top. I had the proscuitto/arugula and the fresh. Both was quite tasty. Would definitely return.

Food was pretty good. Do yourself a favor and try one of their Popsicles. I tried the cheesecake blueberry one and my husband kept trying to steal it!! Atmosphere was chill and the staff was young and tatooed.

Found this place when I was searching for a quick lunch spot. I had a lunch of pizza and salad, and I have to admit the food was really good. This place has a really great feel to it and the staff is super nice and attentive. I think the location is in a great spot being right on the street car line. Slice has a really nice selection of items and the ingredients are really fresh and tasty.

We went in as a group of 11. The price turned out really good like 80+ and we got to try many different flavors. Our favorite is the Hawaii one. The restaurant is also very cute and special. The waitresses are friendly and with a good service. Definitely recommend to go there if you are visiting New Orleans!

Amazing food and it's priced well. Service was great and the waiter was honest about how much was needed to fill you up. Half salad+slice or two slices

This place is so much better than the one on Magazine Street - service wise. I can't tell you how many times I've been disappointed or been given "attitude" at their other location. Unfortunately, the Magazine location is just a few blocks away from my house and I purposefully make the trip to this location because I KNOW they won't disappoint. My favorite dishes here are the Aglio Oglio pasta and their cheese pizza. I've had a few different dishes, but I find myself ordering these same things over and over again.

Love it! Got the bacon, basil, and garlic slice and that topped my NOLA food trip. This place was pretty much my default restaurant while vacationing in New Orleans. Slice Pizzeria was very simple, fresh, and you are blasted with unforgettable pizza aromas, tasty brewed beers, and Southern hospitality. If i was there at this very moment i would purchase: Prosciutto, Gorgonzola, and Arguala; bacon, basil, and garlic; trucker calzone; and the creme brulee! NOTE: This place stayed open before hurricane Issac smacked St. Charles st. and that is a 5/5 in my books. Many stores/restaurants closed early or were understaffed.

Shercole K.
Every chance I get to take someone here for lunch, I seem to make it happen now. This is my go-to lunch pizza place. Yummy fresh pizza for cheap! You literally get one slice and can be full from it. That just doesn't happen much. Plus if its a place my boyfriend will actually eat and have nothing bad to say about the place must be AWESOME. Best Time to go is in the week during the 11-1pm range for a great lunch. One slice will cost you pretty much 5 bucks different specialties.

Our first time here, sat outside on st. Charles avenue. Spaghetti and meatballs were delicious. But the PGA pizza was awesome... The arugulla added a surprising crunch and the bitterness balanced with the Gorgonzola.... U gotta try it

A great little pizza spot. Out front they will have a few tables set up outside. Some tables inside, and booths that go along the back. The food comes out fast, but the table service for drink refills is a little slow. I got my app before I could get a second refill of ice tea. Though not a big deal. For an app, I had cheesy bread. Just garlic bread with mozzarella and marinara dipping sauce. Simple, but good. I had two slices of Prosciutto, Gorgonzola, and Arugula pizza. Again, really good and freshly made. They also have a small bar with a nice selection of beers. A place to look for if in the Garden District.

Lilly T.
Ah, Slice Pizzeria :) Slice will probably always be one of my favorite pizza places in New Orleans. They use fresh ingredients, their pizza dough is the perfect middle ground- not too thick,not too thin, and their toppings list is expansive. Also, their bruschetta is freaking delicious!

Arrived in NOLA for my 40th and we were staying at the Avenue garden Hotel next door. 5 of us just flew in and were starving! We were supposed to go to Willie Maes for the fried chicken but there was a line wrapped around the building. So we decided to check this place out because it was convenient and it was worth it. One thing I like was you could get ANY type of pizza they had for a slice! Most places have limited selections when it comes to the per slice. The pizza was pretty freakin awesome! Ny Style like I love it and full of flavor! We were so impressed we managed to squeeze this place in a 2nd time. The second time we didnt have pizza. Garlic Bread was great. Mushroom Crostini was very good, Caprese Salad was decent.. The pasta was a heaping portion and filling but it was kind of bland. However, the item I was least thrilled with was the bread pudding.. it was definitely cake not bread pudding. The only reason I wasn't impressed is because I was expecting bread pudding. For NOLA I expect an overabuncance of flavor so for the pasta portion I was left a bit in the "meh" category but the pizza.. SPOT ON!

Roxanne C.
This was my first time here, and I have to say I'm a fan. The food is good and affordable. I like that you can buy pizza by the slice. You can also either get a half of a pasta dish or a whole pasta dish, which I liked because I wasn't that hungry. I also thought the staff seemed friendly. Parking seemed to be an issue since you have to park on the street, but I was dropped off so it wasn't a problem for me. I will definitely come back here.

What I liked most about Slice, is as its name suggests, you can order pizza by the slice. At $3.75, the slices are pretty reasonably priced, allowing you to try a couple of different specialties. I had a slice of spinach, sun dried tomato, & artichoke and a slice of the special. While I thought the "base" of the pizza was perfect (think thin, New York style crust), the pizza was kind of flavorless despite all of the toppings. If I return, I think I'll simply go with a plain cheese slice and hopefully get to enjoy the pizza for what it really is. Why two stars down? As I've already mentioned, the pizza wasn't fantastic. I ordered a caesar salad as a starter and the lettuce was fairly brown and wilted. The boy asked what beer was on draught, ordered, and received a bottled beer. I ordered my slice without onions and peppers and it came with both. So, in short, the service could have been a bit better. I'll definitely go back to Slice for another try, but I won't be in a rush to return.

UNIQUE, FRESH, and LOCAL! We've been going to Slice since they opened many years ago. Their slices are huge, and the ingredients are really fresh! Let the staff know you aren't some snob and they are very friendly! I love getting penne pasta with pesto sauce and salmon (it is NO LONGER on the menu, but if you ask nicely - they will do it for ya!). 1/2 price mimosas on Sundays are a treat!!!! LOVE this place!

Bad experience. 2 hours for delivery, cold pizza and didn't get the order correct. Called back, they didn't answer. Warmed pizza, not good at all. Don't understand the hype. Waste of money. Try Reginellis , better service and food.

This is my favorite pizza joint in all of New Orleans. My friend doesn't like pizza, but once she had a slice of the Flying Hawaiian, she's been addicted ever since! I have had the Meat Lover's, Flying Hawaiian, Specialty D-Luxe (MY FAVE) and Sportsman's Paradise. Usually, I order a 14" half Flying Hawaiian and half Specialty D-Luxe. They're really good about half/half pizzas. Their delivery is fast and their pizza is always so juicy! I like that I'm not gnawing on too much bread because it's thin crust. I like the atmosphere of the place as well, the service is fast and friendly - reminds me of my favorite pizza place in MN: Pizza Luce.

I really love this place and look forward to returning to eat here with my family once I visit in a few weeks. This is the better location as far as I am concerned, just has a better vibe about it than the one on Magazine St, and I think its due to the lack of tourists that are in there. Has a more laid back feel and a lot less children crying or screaming, always a good thing. It's family friendly though. I love the art work and the staff. The pizza is always phenomenal and you really just can't go wrong with whatever you get. Definitely recommend them to all my friends and family.

Simply awesome!!!! I would of gave 5 stars but the Sangria was bitter. (You know alcohol is a worth a whole star!) The food, the service, the wait time.... All of it, SIMPLY AWESOME! If u haven't tried this place you have been letting life pass you by! Did I forget to mention the prices were very affordable. My pregnant friend gave it 2 thumbs up! I will definitely be back with more friends! I wonder if they host events.... I'll find out and get back to you all! What more must I say for you to trust and believe that this place is SIMPLY AWESOME (in my slow motion voice!)?

So when i visited NOLA last, my friend wanted me to try Slice and see how it compared to Pizza or NY/NJ. While i still prefer my home slice, Slice is able to stand up on its own. The Pizza here is really good. I was pretty impressed and there combinations of flavors were pretty awesome. I like that they serve Italian sodas, disappointed that they were out of mango, but every place I've every been to that has mango is always out of it when I order it, so I'm not to disappointed and this just adds to my argument that the elusive mango is just a farfetched fable to get people like me into their shops. Getting back from my tangent, slice has some awesome food and defiantly would be willing to come back again to try some more of their awesome food.

The pizza's pretty good, but we were disappointed the last time we came and found the bar was (physically) miniaturized. They still have drinks, but you can't sit at the bar anymore. The ingredients are fresh and tasty! It's not my favorite place, but I won't refuse to go here. Not sure about small kids or groups... It's loud enough that loud young kids you might avoid taking other places would go virtually unnoticed. The building is a bit narrow, so I can't really imagine how they fit groups in together... I wouldn't go with a group of more than four.

My oh my, this place was soo delicious!! And definitely took me by suprise. I did NOT want to eat pizza in NOLA (Um...can i just try a billion different jambalays and gumbos please?) but, it was 1-2 blocks from our hotel (the Prytania), it was out 4th night, it was raining, and we were getting ready for our last night on Bourbon. So, it made sense to stay near the area. Imagine my suprise when we entered this classy yet comfortable (think brick walls, dim and moody lighting, with an intimate bar immediately greeting us upon entrance) pizzeria, with pizza slices in moderate prices ($3.75) and yummy smells? We got take out so we could eat in the comforts of our warm hotel room. Their pizza slices were huuge with tons of toppings gracing them...and incredibly flavorful. (would have expected nothing less from NOLA!) What we got: (ingredients straight from their website) -Shrimp & Andouille (Caramelized Onions, Yellow Corn, Diced Tomato, and Green Onion) Anything with caramelized onions..and you have my heart. Perfect balance of the greasiness of the cheese, sausage, and shrimp with the fresh veggies...delicious. -Greek (Artichoke Hearts, Imported Feta, Kalamata Olives, and Red Onions ~optional Anchovies) um...yum? -BBQ shrimp: a kind local (who claims he is there most nights for a beer and pizza since he lives a block away) recommended this dish to us. Upon opening it up when we got back to our hotel room, we were slightly disappointed. It looked like a slightly upgraded version of the po'boy we had eaten earlier. Buttered bread, a few pieces of cooked shrimp, fresh parsley, and a small container of liquid-y bbq sauce. HOWEVER, this sauce was to DIE for! It was incredibly different: not sweet and thick like most bbq sauces...brothy...but full of savory flavor with a kick at the end. (we ended up dipping our crusts into this sauce...yum) All in all, this was one of my best meals in NOLA. and what a suprise! Def recommend :)

This is the original location of Slice which has started to expand to other locations. This location is nearest to my house and the most convenient to me. If all your in the mood for is one slice of pizza this is probably the best place to get a highly customized slice to fit your hearts desire. The pizza here is ok to me and I like the availability of all the topping choices. I still rarely end up here as when I'm in the mood for pizza I usually go to Theo's, Pizza Delicious, or the $5 pint and a slice deal at New York Pizza. This is certainly a decent place for a slice but I always need more than one slice!

Joi B.
Lots of pizza bang for your buck! I'm the sort who, when faced with all kinds of options, can never make up her mind as to what kind of pizza she wants. I want 'em all!!! The beauty of Slice is that they allow you three ordering options: by the slice, a small pie or a large pie. And you can have virtually *any* style of pizza you want from gourmet slices (Mushroom Explosion, spinach/artichoke/sundried tomatoes) to create-your-own. Last night I started with a perfect arugula salad (size "small" is plentiful) and then decided on one special slice (spinach/artichoke/tomato which comes on their white pie) and one red slice with kalamata olives and mushrooms. Let me just say that I'm going to be a diehard for their red pies. I generally prefer red pies anyway (I'm a saucy gal) and Slice's sauce is great! Taste/texture is similar to a corner pizza joint in NY, but of course a little bit different. I mean, the ingredients are extremely fresh and they are *not* shy with the basil (love). I was not as in love with the white slice because it was very dry, but still tasty nonetheless. Service is super sweet and speedy. Casual, but charming atmosphere (read: not fast food-like) Oh and get a load of those drink specials!!! Seems like there is something different and awesome every day from Sunday Mimosas to Saturday Bloody Marys. Weekday evening specials include 1/2 price bottles and cocktails.

Moira R.
The two ladies at the table will have THE TRUCKER! The trucker? Oh yes, the trucker. A gigantic meat/ cheese stuffed calzone that can't be matched. Each bite is a delicious melody of pork goodness. Okay, so you're veg, that's cool too. They have an equally large, veg stuffed mate called the roasted garden. If you love garlic they have you covered. The last time I had this one I swear there must have been an entire head of garlic inside. I smelled like garlic for at least an entire day after I ate that thing. Ops The pizza of course is good as well. The crust is thin and the toppings are piled on. I haven't had a bad slice yet. The service is always speedy enough. The atmosphere is comfortable and modern, a step up from the every day pizza place. However, caution, don't leave your children unattended or, according to the sign above the bar, they will feed them espresso and give them a puppy. ;)

I love this location because it is three blocks from my house. Hell yeah! Went here with my parents today for a quick lunch. Pizza was delicious as usual, as was my mesclun salad (fruit+greens+vinaigrette+walnuts, yay!). Our waiter was fast and friendly'personable. They have great drink specials, with a full bar and a selection of beer and wine. My dad had the mac and cheese, and gobbled that up pretty fast, so it must have been good. Slice is the place I go to when I want a consistently good meal at a reasonable price with friendly service. I've never had a bad experience here. Try the pga, it's my favorite :)

2 of us stopped by around 1:30 on Sunday afternoon. Staff was friendly and welcoming. I had the cheese calzone with chicken. Good size, nice crust, but the cheese in the middle was still cold, so 1 star lost for that. Definitely a good value for the price, and steps away from the St Charles Ave streetcar stop

Whitney J.
My go-to pizza spot in the city... I definitely prefer the St. Charles location over the one on Magazine because the staff (as well as the pizza) seem different for some reason. My suggestions on pies/slices: Fresh, Arugula/Prosciutto/Gorgonzola.... or a slice of cheese/onion.

Chris R.
Since I've lived in NOLA, pretty much everyone I know said that the best pizza ever is at Slice. Our verdict? Not so much. Maybe all the friend hype raised my expectations. I liked the crust on the pie, but the Mrs. didn't. The sauce was too salty, and too spicy. I admit, I'm pretty hard on pizza, as I grew up on "real pizza" in the northeast. I also ordered a meatball appetizer, and my lady ordered the chocolate chip bread pudding. The meatballs were horrible, but the dessert was damn good. The service was excellent, which made up for some of the food's shortcomings, but I doubt we'll be back.

Jacinta W.
This place is awesome with a capital A! The calzone was superb. Way to big to eat in one sitting for me. And the chocolate bread pudding was a great way to end the evening. You have y to check this place out for pizza when visiting NOLA.

Jamie S.
Not impressed. It took 1.5 hours to get our pizza delivered and when it finally came we were pretty disappointed. We ordered the flying Hawaiian. We basically were brought a bacon and jalepeno pizza. Little to no red sauce, barely any pineapple or chicken. Crust was bland and dry. Heard a lot of great things about Slice over the last couple years but after this experience we will not be back. So many better pizza options out there! That being said... You know what they say about bad pizza.

YUMMMM!!! I love that you can order by the "slice" and choose anyyyy toppings you want!! It's basically subway meets a pizza joint. I had a slice with artichoke, corn, spinach, peppers, and garlic! Super yum and fair prices, and you don't feel like puking after like Pizza Hut. WIN!

Chose this place for dinner since it's close to where I was staying. Ordered shrimp bisque-very tasty! Small salad (with goat cheese, strawberries, blueberries, pecan & balsamic dressing)-good and the BBQ shrimp appetizer-very good but a bit salty. Overall would go again to try the pizza.

Attention parents, Slice may just be your salvation, too. If your kids are like mine and child A and child B are basically as compatible as Jack Sprat and his wife, waste money no more! Slice lets you order by the slice almost any kind of pizza you can think of. Gorgonzola and arugula for you, perhaps, while the kids eat toppings that don't involve compromise or negotiation. Add to this a full bar with drink specials, and you might just leave feeling relaxed and happy. After eating at a restaurant. With your kids. Crazy, right? The pizza is quite yummy, and the list of toppings is impressive by our admittedly compromised pizza standards in this city. When we were there last Friday, sangria was on special, so my friend and I got a red and a white. We both agreed that the white was slightly tastier but that the red was a strong contender. For dessert we tried the chocolate pear and the dreamsicle popsicles. Yum, and plenty of real fruit for a lower guilt:indulgence ratio than most desserts. The only drawback to the place is the hassle of trying to negotiate a parking spot around here at dinner time. But with just that minor annoyance, I'll definitely be back.

After looking for a good restaurant literally ALL over new orleans we stumbled on this place after taking the streetcar down into the Garden District. It was really good. They had an awesomely refreshing drink called the Riverboat Captain and their pizza was pretty good. I liked the PGA a lot. I definitely recommend making a trip out here for this.

Elaine M.
This is by far my second most favoritest pizza place in town! Not really so much for the pizza but the service, the prices, and the presentation of the food are all top. Not to mention, the last table we sat at had a great picture of local musician Clint Maedgen behind it, whom I adore. So that made me happy! Compared to every restaurant in New Orleans, the caprese salad is the freshest (and prettiest)! I love that you have the option of building your own slice, which is rare. The wine/beer options are pretty fantastic too. I appreciate the fact that the kitchen is so open and visible so nothing is hidden & you can rest assured that all your food is handled properly etc... Needless to say, if I do not feel like making the trip to the Bywater for my #1 favorite pizza in town, this is truly the only other pizza place that makes the cut in my book.

Amazing salads, pizza and ravioli are also excellent. I went during the boil water advisory, and a brief (1 minute or less) blackout and the service was STILL AWESOME. The atmosphere is great!

After a long day of walking around NOLA with my wife and our 3 kids under the age of 8, we were dog tired and in need of sustenance. We took the trolley car down St Charles and I used Yelp to find us some pizza along the way. Walking in, we had more than enough room to fit our stroller without taking it down, which is always nice. The place was fairly empty for a Sunday afternoon so we walked to the back and took a seat. The service was great, got us plenty of water right away and took our order. Our XL pepperoni was delicious as expected and satisfied everyone at the table. Our waitress recommended the bread pudding as a local favorite so we went in for that as well. It was a bit burnt and covered up with sugar toppings but we still polished it off. All in all a solid find for some wary tourists looking for a slice of pizza.

It's as good as I remember it back in college. Hot and crispy crust. Solid supreme pizza is a staple. Plus the tomato basil soup was delicious. We also ordered Chocolate chip bread pudding...get dat!

One of the lone voices of dissent, owing almost exclusively to personal taste. Friends, I am not a fan of the thin crust pizza. Slice loves the thin crust pizza. You may already see where we differ. It's not that Slice is bad. It's not that I will avoid this place. It's just that I don't love it the way everyone else does, when I have Cafe Roma even closer to my house (with delivery) offering me the same amazing toppings on a crust I prefer for less moola. Yes, Slice is fresh. Yes, Slice is interesting. Yes, Slice is full of hipsters. Yes, Slice has sexy waitstaff. Yes, Slice has a good bar. yes, Slice makes amazing salads. But no, Slice isn't my favorite. I also don't love the crowd of clove-smokers who hang out in front of Slice and try to kick my bike tires when I'm taking to the sidewalks in the dark. Not cool, guys! Not cool! Accessibility notes: Cramped for folks with mobility devices. Can get loud at peak hours. Bathrooms are tiny. No braille menu or signage. Booths can be a tight squeeze.

I went here over the Halloween weekend, and it was a great experience. I thought this place would be packed and service would bad, but it wasn't. My group of 4 was promptly seated, the waitress was sweet and our food came out hot and well made. I have been told about their banana bread pudding, that it was a must try. When I went, they didn't have that, they had a plum bread pudding instead. Many months later, I still remember how delicious it was.

A good salad, tasty slice and reasonable price. Had the bacon, basil and garlic pizza (gracias, Yelpers!) and it was great. Hip atmosphere. A few tables on the sidewalk. We opted for outdoor seating because the indoor section was too cold. If I lived here, I'd probably become a regular here. :)

Haven't been here in forever but every time I come the food is always excellent...I got the Special D-Luxe slice...only need one...

This place is amazing. You'd never guess this place would be so cool from looking at it from the outside. There is much more seating than you would think and so far I've yet to be disappointed by any of the pizza we've ordered.

My caprese salad was barely edible, Moz and tomatoes were hard, the balsamic vinaigrette was like tar and was blech. The calzone, in my spawn 1's opinion: "Meh" and I quote spawn 2: "I only ate 2 slices of the pizza b/c I was starving, I didn't like it and the crust was so thin all the topping fell off everytime I tried to eat it." I've been here before and things were better, I'll give it another go and hopefully I can up the stars on my next visit.

Typical of a tourist trap craphole, although the Slice on Magazine is great. Ingredients seem above average but a lazy crew works this one. Slice of pizza was really old, they threw my drink away when I went to the bathroom, little things that say "I don't care and I don't have to." So many better places nearby.

I visited Slice wanting some good pizza while in NOLA for a conference. The service was fantastic - just the right amount of attention. I was sitting by myself, but my server didn't make me feel like I was "taking up a table" I ordered a surprise calzone and it was absolutely delicious. I waited about 25 minutes for it, which just made me convinced they really did just make it. It had sausage, tomatoes, an unbelievable amount of cheese, spinach, and more. It was a perfect size - I got full about 3/4ths of the way through. I eavesdropped on the servers and cooks who chatted an equal mix of business and real life. They seemed to really enjoy working together, but ever let work go undone. Reasonable prices, great atmosphere. If you're looking for a great place to grab a pizza I highly recommend Slice.

I'm still a fan! my "go to" place for a night out with my daughter. I can feel like a grown up and still go to a place that she will love. A great night out options. I LOVE the arugula salad its one of the best IMO. a bowl overflowing with fresh arugula a splash of lemon and olive oil and salt and pepper with a few slices of pecorino, just hits the spot for me. For pizza she gets the cheese slice and I get the prosciutto, gorgonzola, and arugula. There is seriously enough arugula on here to count as a salad and the flavors merry beautifully. I prefer the Magazine location on weeknights and St. Charles on a weekend day trip for atmosphere purposes, both are excellent!

On subsequent visits Slice has made up for its first-time awkwardness. And, truthfully, no kind of mediocre service could keep me away from the amazingness that is the "fresh" pizza. The "Fresh" pizza is so good i considered taking one home, just for the next morning, in case i woke up hungry. The fresh pie comes without any sauce but the mozzarella is piled on. MMM. Then there are tomato slices and fresh basil all on top. I can't do it justice with words. Every one of their salads is good, but a little expensive for the size. The waitresses (i've only had ladies) have all been more welcoming than my first visit. Yesterday they even offered me crostini (i'm not cool with paying for bread before a meal) to stave off my crazed-monster look i get when i'm low on foods. My final service comment is that i hate when they bring you the bill half-way through your meal!!! What if you wanted to order another drink? Or a dessert even?! I understand that they're being proactive or whatever but it's really one of the rudest things you can do to someone enjoying their meal- and it's happened to me at Slice over and over. Which is why I can't review their desserts. So, Slice is getting a better review this time because maybe the staff were having a bad night my first time around. But, I must say, it's a little unnerving that there are a few (3 or 4) children running (literally running) back and forth through this little place. I wanted to grab one and shout "that's enough!" before he knocked into someone's beer or splattered some marinara everywhere.

I had actually never eaten here when my boyfriend brought me to this place a few months back. I got some kind of calzone that was really salty and cheesy. The cheese wasn't bad, but it was a little too salty for my liking. Also, we went on a Saturday night, and although they weren't insanely packed, it took them forever to get us our order. I would go back again (my rule is to try a place twice, unless the food is horrible), but I would be more careful about what I order (when they call something "meaty", they mean it!).

Ordered a medium special deluxe and a pitcher of Abita. What an excellent combo. Well the pizza was way better than anything we have in northern Indiana. The Abita was cold and fresh and helped numb my senses as I wolfed down 5 slices, while my wife could barely finish her 3rd. The servers were extremely friendly as well as all the staff acknowledged our leaving and thanked us for dining there. Way cool, friendly people. The back room was really warm when we got there, no big deal they kicked the air up a notch for us immediately. Perfect comfort... A lot of room to sit inside and a few tables outside. Highly recommend this place as a must eat at if your craving pizza. Great environment with great people working there.

Good pizza with great toppings, not sure the real name but i call it a slice of white. Pretty good, not greasy cooked perfect, and i love there slice of meat. I got a slice with Alligator sausage the other day it had corn and peppers with some green onions that was great. I have had there shrimp and Broccoli pasta which was awesome, but last couple times i have been there i was in a rush and didn't have time to enjoy. People there are really nice, and the food is good, and pretty cheap. Parking sucks but what can you expect on St Charles. I haven't had pizza better then this in New Orleans yet so when im uptown or even downtown i like to swing by for a slice of pie. Ow they started serving Popsicle wife had one she loved it, had chunks of fruits, its in a deep freezer by the front door with bunch of different flava's

It is my hypothesis that people who speak well of this place are either desperate or have never experienced pizza as it meant to be experienced. I enjoy a thin crust as much as the next (pizza) freak, & as many reviewers have already pointed out, this is Slice's purported speciality. However, I expect my thin crust to be thicker and more delicious than, say, a manilla envelope spread with garlic butter. I'd also prefer that the cheese not jump ship in one massive slithery scab before I've taken the first bite. At the very least, give me more than 3 pieces of wilted basil, and this on a "Fresh" slice, the description of which names basil as a main ingredient. There is clearly a pizza crisis happening in New Orleans. But it doesn't end there: $8 for a bbq shrimp "shared plate" that was mostly bread. $12 for a pitcher of very average beer, which we unsuspectingly agreed to at our waiter's suggestion. As for atmosphere, I'd sit in the belly of a whale for a good meal, but I gotta say they didn't do themselves any favors with the decor. It looks like a Boston College campus bar c.1999.

My preferred pizza spot in my neighborhood. Sometimes I'll crave their bacon/basil/garlic pizzas. Great toppings, great crust. Also, whenever I walk past the restaurant, I always spy on their front sidewalk board for menu items or specials that catch my eye and interest. I've had pretty much all their pizza and salad offerings (with nothing but positives to say about that), but I've yet to try any pasta dishes, so I have no comment on that. Is it the best pizza in the LGD? I've never put that to any scientific test. SO long as they keep me happy with their offerings, I have no reason to stray.

Delish pizza and Salads. Ate here twice and could have eaten here again. So yummy, and pretty quick. I am from New York and I can honestly say... This pizza is BETTER. Not greasy... full of flavor. Yumm!

I had the special slice (which was loaded with baked potato, garlic, cheese, chives and optional bacon) and it was fantastic. Now this is not a thick slice, on the contrary. I'd say it's a bit costly for such a teeny slice (hence the 4 stars) but it tasted very good. Their Italian Soda is awesome too.

I love this place. The calzones are the best I ever had, the pizza is very good and everything is made from scratch. The desserts are okay, but just a bit too heavy after a good Italian meal. Regular's Tip: If you get the salad, ask for the dressing on the side.

Wow, a good tasting pizza in NOLA. I would have gave it five but they don't deliver and they kinda skimped on the pepperoni. Really was a darn good pie though.

Had a great meal here! Bf and I were waiting to watch the Krewe of Druids on St. Charles Street and were looking for a place to eat. I figured we should check out Slice since it was rated so highly. I was not disappointed. We came during happy hour and took advantage of their $2 Abita Amber and $5 mussels. The mussels were served in a wine sauce and was delicious. I had a slice of shrimp etoufee pizza and bf had the muffaletta panini. The pizza was awesome! Seriously, it was one of the best pizzas I've ever had. It was a huge slice of pizza loaded with shrimp, corn, tomatoes, and caramelized onions. The crust was crispy, not soggy, even with all those toppings. Bf also enjoyed his panini. We finished off our meal with a king cake pudding which was recommended by our waitress. It was delicious...a super sweet bread pudding. The whole meal was great and our bill including tax and 20%+ tip was a little over $35.

I have such a crush on Slice! Wine Wednesdays hooked me in, distinctive toppings and toasty crust kept me coming back. This location in particular is comfy with groovy music and super nice staff. If pizza was actually a food category, I'd be in big trouble.

Holy Moly! Best pizza in the Garden District! Was in NOLA for our honeymoon in Jan and new hubby (see his review..Jeffery M.) wanted a break from the culinary Cajun madness I was on, so we yelped pizza joints near our hotel on St. Charles and this place popped up. Eager to continue the gluttony of food and drink that filled our honeymoon, we ordered take out. Hubby got a slice of the meat pizza and I got a slice of the garlic, anduille sausage pizza, along with a hot cap and red velvet cupcake. Whoa! The pizza was thin crust, smelled great had a sweetish sauce and were huge! I think we paid about $2.50 a slice. The red velvet cupcake was perfect..not too sweet. We loved this place so much, we went twice!! The cap held up even after rewarming it up and drinking it the next morning! The next time we went, we sat down and ate..hubby got the calzone and it was massive! I got a slice of white pizza and a house salad. his was the best house salad I have ever had!!! It had sliced green olives and red onions..it was lovely! We were going to purchase t-shirts (we do that with eateries we really like) but the pickings were slim.

Very happy we came here. Our first night visiting New Orleans, we passed so many scummy-looking restaurants. We just wanted to get some decent food before bed. Yelp helped up find Slice, right by our hotel. We knew it must be a good place since it was more full than the other places we had peeked in to, and we were so pleased! Pizza was great, and we were so excited that the beer list exceeded the usual bud and miller lite. Service was very good too. They made a mistake on our order, but sent the correct meal out as soon as they could and took it off our bill. So glad to have found this place!

Lots of pizza joints in the city, but this place does a great job melding the different flavors of the city with the traditional Italian classics. Check out the full menu, which includes some tasty drinks to wash down the fresh ingredients on your pie.

Slice is absolutely delicious. Kind of artisan pizzas. I love the location on St. Charles, too. The only reason I'm not giving a five star review is because you really do have to pay for the quality. Normally that's not a problem for me, but we're talking about pizza here. That said, it's still totally worth going.

Ryan S.
The Trucker Calzone was very good and probably deserves to be 4 stars. However when we ordered for delivery they said 40 minutes and it was over an hour and a half before it arrived- then once we got into our hotel room we discovered that we did not receive any utensils or napkins.

So is pizza without cheese still pizza? Some people tell me NO! Anyway, I've had cheeseless pizza from Slice several times and I can say they are delicious enough so that I really don't much mourn over the lack of dairy content. And if you eat cheese - all the better! My friends seem to all adore Slice so we've had several birthday celebrations, random get togethers there. They're pretty awesome about accommodating larger parties, but it doesn't hurt to notify them beforehand. That being said, I usually opt for the salad anyway, because I don't know, I guess I'm never really THAT hungry when I actually dine-in and no one really wants to share a cheeseless pizza with me (meanies). But no seriously, the salads are A-OK, but naturally, being that I eat salads everywhere, I've had better! They have a modest selection of beers on tap and a full bar in the back. Service is good, not great, but good. This place obviously isn't optimal if you're a vegan, but for a vegetarian - let the good times roll. I've heard many glowing reviews about their white pizza (? whatever it is). It's principally a pizza joint so if you're a pizza joint, definitely stop by. Just say no to Domino's!

Excellent pizza, good atmosphere and good pricing. The meat lovers slice was piled high with meat and was delivered popping hot. The bacon, basil, and garlic was masterful. The basil had a bite to it, which was refreshing. The do have artesian cheeses but frankly i don't think i would order cheeses from this establishment due to the pub type atmosphere. Overall excellent like an oral utopia!

Wow, it sure is difficult to find anything sour about this pizza haven. It's located right on St. Charles Ave., next to the Avenue Garden Hotel. Now that I think about it, I believe that particular hotel has a suite located just above the pizza parlor. Ahh, the Kensington suite. What a wild room, complete with sculpted statues, an Austin Powers-esque bed and mirrored ceilings....but, that story is for another day! I found Slice in the summer of 2005 and I've not found any pizza houses in the city that compare. The pizzas are always made fresh, have a great flavor and are reminiscent of the NY style. The big difference I see here, though, is the more gourmet feel that Slice adds to their pies. Plus, you probably won't find a pizza in NY with andouille sausage! They have such an eclectic selection, too. My personal favorite has always been the prosciutto, gorgonzola and arugula pizza pie from their specialty portion of the menu. Just for the record, I love cheese. I mean, like a lot. This particular pie has always cured me when I'm in a frenzy for cheese! Slice doesn't just serve pizza, though. They offer other treats in the form of fresh salads, poboys, subs, paninis, various pasta dishes and absolutely delishus calzones! OMG, the calzones are so good. I warn you, though, they are big for one person to eat. They come about the size of a spare tire that you'd find in your trunk (cuz' there's junk in there!) and stuffed with enough cheese to plug up an African elephant. Man, I'm getting hungry just thinking about this! The restaurant is shaped like a shotgun house in that it runs deep, not wide. To the rear of the restaurant, you'll find more cozy booths and a full bar to the right, stocked with all the classic beverages that one would require. They have a happy hour, I believe from 4-6 PM. In that time, certain drinks from the bar and all appetizers are half price. Not bad, especially if you're looking to grab a bite after work. In all, I only have a suggestion or two for people thinking of checking out the joint. First, the entire restaurant is not very big and because it is so good, it fills up pretty fast, especially on the weekends. My suggestion is that you get there early enough to avoid the line that's usually always just inside the door. Also, don't try to bring large groups of people with you because the seating is limited and you probably won't all be able to sit together. The food is terrific, made well and always fresh, the staff are courteous and attentive, the ambience is lively....what more could you ask for?

This is pretty much my favorite pizza joint in the city of NOLa. For the price, it is all good. One of tonight's specials was the Blue Marlin panini: delicious Gulf fish (blue marlin), arugula pesto, smoked mozzarella, spinach, sun-dried tomatoes. Quite tasty, especially for $8.95+ tax. Also, a couple of weeks ago they renovated the restaurant so that the bar is now in front of the place & the back room now has more tables in the place where the bar was located.

What can I say that hasn't already been said of this place. It's exceptional. The concept, a single slice of pie any style you want to include gourmet toppings at a reasonable price, is awesome. Price is right, beer is cold, food is prepared very well. Never been disappointed by this place, from the salads to the pie.

I go here fairly often during the week, and I'd suggest this is definitely the time to go. The daily drink specials are hard to beat. One day is half price bottle wine, and another is half price pitchers of beers. Pretty unbeatable. The pizza isn't amazing, but as far as New Orleans pizza goes, it is pretty good. Although the crust is a little too hard/crunchy for me. But they definitely make up for this with quality toppings (prosciutto, artichoke hearts, house made mozzarella, etc.), and interesting combinations for their full pies. Always great service and great atmosphere, and for the price point (especially during the week if you want a drink) it hits the spot.

THE POWER OF SLICE COMPELS YOU! THE POWER OF SLICE COMPELS YOU! :::puts down crucifix::: New Orleans is not a town known for it's amazing pizza joints. I've made peace with that since I live near/often go into New York City for what is considered to be the country's best Italian pies (shut up Chicago, no one wants to hear any of your deep-dish LIP!). I've resigned myself to all the amazing food New Orleans is known for that I cannot get back home, except for once. I had a craving for Pizza and nothing else would do. Slice was on my list since it was (at that time, not sure if it still is) somewhat affiliated with Juan's Flying Burrito which I luuuurve, so I hopped the streetcar, rode it down St.Charles and tripped off at the stop right near Slice. The Pizza? It's about as good as you've got, which isn't as good as I can get (but y'all can rub beignets and chicory coffee in my face daily as I eat a crappy donut and motor oil blend from Dunkin' Donuts). The staff was friendly, the salads were fresh and decently sized and they had a pretty rad wine special. All in all a successful craving satiated, and a bank account not too terribly dented.

I have yet to have a SLICE that I do not like if "Slice's" pizza. No matter what toppings you get, you will love what you get. Service is good and atmosphere is fun! Good to get pizza to-go or for a sit-down dinner which I love! I can't wait to try this for game days!

Meredith A.
One of the last places I dined at while visiting New Orleans. I love thin crust pizza so I thought I would try this place out. I found that the pizza was very good. I wasn't that hungry so I was excited I could just get one slice. The best part about this place is that listed on the drink menu was mimosas. Most places only list these for breakfast or brunch and I like to drink these at all times. Usually I have to be that weirdo asking about mimosas at dinner time(Don't judge me. I like frou-frou drinks). But here I knew I would be able to get my mimosa with my pizza without hassle. So I was able to enjoy two of my favorite things that usually aren't together in one place. This is like a nicer pizza restaurant. It has really good food and am able to get just a slice which is great for me.

I ordered enough food for 3 people, but I figured I'm only in town for a few days and I wanted to try the best of what NOLA Cuisine has to offer. I had white pizza with basil and smoked bacon, a mussels appetizer, a bowl of gumbo, and a greek salad. All was delicious, and made me wish my stomach was bigger! Seemed to be popular with younger/university student crowd, but wasn't lacking in ambiance or cleanliness. My waitress was super friendly and helpful. Tip: come for a late lunch/early dinner and profit from their fab happy hour specials.

peter s.
Just back form Slice and we are not sure if Yelp reviews take price into consideration or not but, while it was not expensive (indeed beers were very reasonable and their 1/2 price bloody mary sunday was a bargain), nothing was outstanding. All was perfectly adequate. (Oh except the Bruschetta which stone cold on cold white bread slices was so bad that I dumped the mushroom bits into my Shrimp Stew -- which seemed heavy on tomatoes and light on shrimp -- to warm them up and give them purpose.) We concluded we would have done better at the Blind Pelican pub across the street.

Went there with some friends not too long ago, and I enjoyed it a lot. The pizzas are huge, yes, but they are also delicious. I can't deny that at all. I loved every bite that I was able to finish and the rest went home with me. Then the next day it was darn good too. I'm actually wanting to go back now since this review has it on my mind. Huh! Okay time to make plans to go there again. Lol Well like I said, "I enjoyed it a lot."

Jazmin M.
This place was really, really good. Not as good as New York slice but still really awesome. We ordered the 18 inch Special pizza which was huge for only two people and a half serving of the lasagna. I usually hate lasagna that isn't homemade but I decided to take a risk and order this and I was completely satisfied with my decision. The ambiance, the food and the experience overall was really great. I'll definitely be back.

I was surprised when I first entered this establishment. The waitress reminded me of the spirit of the Austin Texas locals and the cook had HUGE hair that was carefully pulled back. The restrooms were very clean minus an accumulation of dust dirt on the window. The staff was attentive and the beverages were cold. My husband has has several slices of pizza at different times all he enjoyed. (Meatlovers, Bacon Basil and Garlic, and the Meat Lovers). I have had the pasta with white sauce and salmon. This was a very rich and tastey dish. However should I care to have it again I would ask for the sauce on the side. I have also tried the Wicked Garden calzone it is crusty and bursting with cheese. I wish the Magazine location would have the specials provided at St Charles location. Both locations were excellent! We will be frequent visitors of this establishment. Especially since there is an unobstructed view int the kitchen.

Sunny Dawn S.
The pizza is fabulous. The shrimp/andouille is incredible. I've never had a bad food experience here, but the service to get to-go pizza around lunch time is ridiculous. I've waiting half an hour both times I've gone to pick up to-go. They seem unconcerned. I won't return for take out, but I'm sure I'll give in to the tempting pizza again in the near future.

Went there twice on a recent trip down to New Orleans. This place serves thin crust specialty pizzas as well as the classics, sandwiches, salads and pastas. I have tried both their veggie and their spinach, sun dried tomato, artichoke pizza and both were really good. The veggie pie had ample veggies that were all flavorful. The combination was good, but I thought the green olives were a little overpowering (even more so than the kalamata olives). I thought the spinach, sun dried tomato and artichoke pie was better, with a good amount of ingredients that didn't really overpower one another. Both were on thin crusts and neither pie was greasy. I'm sad I never got to try any of their desserts as their tiramisu and bread pudding looked promising. I believe my favorite part of the whole experience was walking into the bathroom and finding a painting on the wall of Van Gogh's Starry Night with pizza pies in place of the bright round stars. I got to speak to the worker who had painted it, and he said he was working on a Salvador Dali one in the men's restroom! If it had been finished at the time, I would have sneaked into the men's bathroom to snap a pic...of the painting. Best bathroom surprise EVER. So check this place out for the pizza, the beer, and definitely for the restrooms!

As good as it gets! Pizza is made to order and fantastic. I had a spinach salad with salmon and it was the bomb! Fresh crisp greens, Prosciutto bacon, Gorgonzola, Pecans, with a sweet succulent salmon, and a perfectly balanced Balsamic Vinaigrette. We had dessert also and that was in my top 5. A made on the premises, Tiramisu that had the most beautiful sweet cream top, and was flavorful all the way to the bottom of the very large cup it was served in. Cocktails were large and hardy. The price was affordable. Our waiter was personable and informative. Thank you Walker, for a very nice time. To quote Walker," We are serious about food here." Indeed they are. A really BIG thumbs up for "Slice", on St. Charles.

Kristin B.
I have lived many places, and one thing is for sure - NOLA doesn't really "do" pizza. However, given that Slice is some of the best pizza that I have ever eaten in my life, I feel that NOLA should rethink this immediately. Slice is my favorite spot in NOLA. I am there a few times a month, and I don't even like pizza all that much. I am literally addicted to the blue cheese, proscuitto, and arugula pizza, although the greek with anchovies runs a close second. You know though, scratch that - EVERY kind of pizza that I have ever had there was spot-on. Their salads are delicious (the ceasar dressing is superb) and they have a ton of great beers. I've come to love Slice pizza more than po'boys, and that is a hard battle to win, people.

Anthony C.
Growing up in New Jersey, I have fond memories of getting slices of pizza for a dollars from the local pizzeria. Slice is the closing thing I've had to the real thing since I moved to the South. While I usually order a plain slice, I've heard all their more exotic slices are just as delicious. I highly recommend Slice (on St. Charles, I had a bad experience with the Magazine one) to any and everyone who loves great food at a low price.

Sam C.
I LOVE SLICE. The thin crust is not too crispy, but the crusty crust outside is so great. They use super high quality ingredients, and it's so delicious! Try the prosciutto arugula slice, or the meaty one, or the shrimp and andouille sausage one... Even was extremely surprised at how good the appetizers are (BBQ shrimp crostinis, the BMT salads). Low priced and a fun place.

There was nothing wrong with this place. I think it was a nice place to grab lunch on Sunday afternoon. Got the cheese bread which was pretty good. I thought the red dipping sauce had a nice flavor to it. Got 3 slices: pepperoni, pepperoni and minced garlic, and pepperoni and carmelized onion. I liked them all. My least favorite was the onion slice because the onions were more soggy than carmelized. Tasted pretty good though. The garlic slice was probably my favorite, but was pretty sparce on the garlic. I would've liked more garlic. The crust is thin with some crunch (I think it has cornmeal in it or something). I also tried a bite of the white slice and the pruscuitto and argula slice. Both were pretty good, but again, not jaw droppingly good or anything. My guess is that this is probably some of the better pizza in town.

Good pizza, but not as amazing as other reviewers say. I really liked the fact that you can order any pizza by the slice, with any combination of toppings and sauce, so for that reason I recommend!

Marty M.
Awesome! I'd definitely recommend this to anyone who likes fresh ingredients and great pizza.

Slice has great, heaping, dripping, melty slices of cheesy goodness, topped with whatever your little heart can conjure up. For a gal who doesn't normally eat her crust, there is never a crumb left here on my plate. They also have a wide variety of veggie-friendly options and a great beer/wine list.

Good salad, generously topped pizza (ok tasting) and friendly service.

The service and ambiance was great, the menu options were also very good, but when the pizza came out the dough was soggy. The toppings, sauce etc were all very fresh and presented well. Just goes to show that with a soggy crust, its not all that great.

As someone from Chicago, I would consider myself a pizza snob. I usually eat deep-dish pizza but the thin crust pizza here is amazing. The types of pizza they have could be comparable to Cali Pizza Kitchen but SLICE is way, Way, WAY better. The fact that I could try their different pizzas in slice-form was an added bonus. The staff were nice and friendly as well. I had two tastey and filling slices for less than $10! I will be back.

Gotta love the pitcher special- paired with their generally good pricing, and the quality of food, makes for a great dinner. Tip; The restaurant just keeeps onnnn goinngg. Like an ass, I picked a seat in the cramped front of the house. Didn't realize there was so much more dining room until I went to use the restroom... Much nicer!

The service puts this one over the top. Everyone was very friendly and the place had a 'real' feal. Even the patrons seemed like a nice bunch. I think if I lived near by this could become a regular spot for me. Good food and atmosphere at a great price. The pizza itself is probably not the best you've ever had, but it just might come in second.

When people get hurt and end up in the hospital, they should be fed intravenously using Slice's shrimp remoulade sauce. Of course, they may never want to wake up or leave. It's that good. This cute spot has an open kitchen, tables in the front, booths along the middle, and a bar in the back. After slopping up all the sauce with buttered bread, we noshed on bacon-chicken-cheese ravioli and pesto pasta with salmon. The perfect complement: Amita Satsuma beers. Deliciomo!

Reliable and reasonably priced except for the time I ordered tomato soup and you charged me for the jambalaya cuz it was " the soup of the day". 8 bucks for basil and tomato? Not on my watch. So I send it back and you call out to the cook "86 the soup". Dude looks like an extra from Sons of Anarchy. His response? He throws the soup and starts cursing. Now I don't have an MBA in management, but that seems like a management opportunity. Step up and say something next time. Don't be scared of the biker types. They got moms and cry in the night like everyone else.

Slice is pretty good, and one of the better pizza places in the city, if not the best. The St Charles location is definitely better than the one on Magazine Uptown.

Stopped in for a late dinner last night...had the Caesar salad, the Fresh slice, and the hubby had a slice of the pancetta/Gorgonzola/arugula and the bacon/roasted garlic slice. Perfect meal with friendly staff. The kitchen was a little slow, but other than that had a great time.

I came here while on vacation, and while the pizza alone was delicious enough for a return visit, what I was truly enamored with was the Caesar Salad. I was surprised at the addition of roasted red pepper, but it turned out to be a great compliment to the flavors! I had to come back on my last night to get one last dose for takeout. Image my disappointment when I got back to my hotel to find they'd forgotten to give me any dressing for my full serving of salad. It was just not worth a 15min round trip walk for a girl alone at night to ask for a refund/get dressing. Had to knock off a star for this cruel Caesar denial. Other points in their favor: *Our first night we came minutes before closing, so thought we should take-out so they could close down. The server we talked to did not begrudge our late appearance in the least, and pleasantly encouraged us to sit. They seat up through closing. *As hinted by the name, they also serve to-order pizza by the slice. We were able to order a full pizza, and a specialty slice just to sample. Both delicious!

Good pizza, excellent service on this Friday night. Don't get the tiramisu. It comes in from a long way away (Chicago). Is there no one closer who can supply a good tiramisu???

Not true Italian style pizza, but pretty good for American-variety pizza. Service is typically excellent & food is quick.

We stayed just a few blocks from Slice. My hubby likes to try different pizzas wherever we go....he is from NY and lives in Chicago-- so pizza is a passion. Anyway he loved this place! Amazing...with all the great food in NOLA I still could not keep him away from this place. He returned to enjoy the different types-- all great. Staff service was warm and inviting and by the end of our stay, he was on a first name basis with the entire crew!

I've had better pizza in one other place - a New York hole in the wall called Sal's. Other than that, this is the best pizza out there. That's assuming, of course, you don't favor the messy caserole that is Chicago style pizza. Friendly, full bar, great pizza; ehat else can you ask for?

This place is the bomb! You can order any pizza by the slice (as the name suggests) and they have different speciality pizzas in rotation. Also, they have delicious mojitos. I have always received great service here.

One of my favorite all time Pizza places in the city (New Orleans).It's not a flashy place, it doesn't beg for your attention, its just a nice laid back atmosphere that makes you feel right at home. It's almost like when you walk thru the door the them song to that famous TV show "Cheers" plays in your head. The workers are always nice, outgoing, and very attentive. The bar although maybe small its still very inviting and all part of the charm of this special place. Now onto the food, the pizza is immaculate,once you take the first bite into your pizza, you automatically roll your eyes into the back of your head and can't help but to let out a mmmmmmmmmmm. I always order the meat pizza, with almost every meat topping known to man on it. Meatball,Ham,Bacon,Pepperoni,Sausage. The only negative to eating the pizza is when its all gone and trust me you will be begging for more. They also have an extensive collection of beer and we are not talking about Budweiser or Miller Lite, which they have as well. We are talking about introducing you to new flavors and beers you have never heard of but never fail to be delicious. All and all its just one the best attractions on St.Charles, hop on a streetcar ride down the line, hop off right in front of Slice grab a slice or a few, have a beer and roll out, I guarantee you will always have a great experience.

Probably my favorite pizza of all time - good thin crust, just right amount of sauce, service was great . . . this was a hole in the wall, it didn't look like much when I walked in - but my son assured me that it was great - he was right. . . . I woke up the next morning wishing they were open at 9am, so I could grab a whole pie to munch on as I drove to Dallas, TX - Excellent!!!!!!!!!

We wandered in here accidental while strolling through the Garden District and boy are we glad we did! They have a lot of unique ingredients that are very fresh, such as broccoli and yellow corn. Their greek pizza is very delish! The crust is light and flaky, with a cornmeal bottom. Also, they have a nice full bar in the back, which makes having a beer and a pizza all the more enjoyable.

Matthew M.
Slice never disappoints. The place needs a little touch-up paint and it's a little cramped, but the pizza is always great. The servers look a little "indie" (which in my mind usually equals bad service) but they always rise above and beyond and never let your drink empty. They accommodated a party of eight for us today at noon on a Friday with NO WAIT! Tres Impresse! Love the Prosciutto, arugula, and gorgonzola pizza. I add roasted garlic to it and it is wonderful. The pizza is very thin crust with a cornmeal dusting underneath. Also there is a little bar in the back area that is usually laid-back and usually includes a cute and attentive bartender.

Let me start this review by saying that my "par" for pizza is Star in Houston - the best I've had in the world. Roaming the streets of New Orleans (outside the French Quarter for once), we stumbled upon this little dive. The wait staff seemed younger and more "indie" than most people we'd even seen in New Orleans, which was interesting. It's obviously close to a university or something. They were quick to recommend their favorites, and we took them. I had a slice of the spinach, sun-dried tomato, and artichoke "white" pizza (that means no tomato sauce) and a slice of the white pie, which had several cheeses on it. Both were pretty amazing, even though it may not be the best pizza in the world. We finished with the praline gelato and a shot of espresso, both of which were great. We call New Orleans "The Big Lazy" for how lethargic we find most people here to be. The pizza alone would have earned this place 4 stars, but the prompt and friendly service and modern ambiance gave it the extra bump it needed. A great, cheap lunch or dinner spot if you're ever in the area.

Great pizza, fabulous calzones, a fun, cheap laid back atmosphere! I loved this place during undergrad, where a calazone with 4 toppings would cost $7 and last for 2 meals. The wait staff is friendly yet laid back and the open cooking area makes for wonderful aromas. My 72yrs old Great-Aunt, who isnt particularly fond of pizza LOVES this place and demands that we go back next time we are in NOLA. If you local, dont pass this place up and if you are a tourist, this establishment is a reminder that NOLA has more to offer than seafood.

Itching for some pizza, my friends recommended this place. On a nice warm sunny day we came and were seated promptly by a nice waitress. The place had a simple, contemporary design, and more importantly clean. I ordered a slice of the shrimp and andouille, along with a slice of bacon, basil and garlic, a cesar salad and asking the waitress to surprise me with a drink (she chose strawberry italian soda). The salad was like a cesar anywhere else, and the italian soda is good but nothing unique. They do know their pizza though. Thin crust, with crispy, slightly chewy base, and topped with fresh ingredients except one exception. The bacon slice was loaded with crispy salty delicious crumbled bacon, and fresh chopped basil and roasted garlic. This was an awesome choice, and I would order a whole pizza of this if given a choice. The other slice was dissappointing though. The shrimp tasted a bit old, and the andouille was nothing special. At least the crust was good, but I would not order this again. I will coming back here to try out all their other choices next time I am in town. =)

This weekend I went to Slice on St. Charles and it was absolute chaos. I called in a to go order and they said it would take about 25 minutes. After attempting to park for 10 minutes, I entered Slice about 25 minutes after I called in the order. There was one line for both take out orders and people putting their name on the list to be seated. Chaos with a capital K. So I finally got to the front of the line. Great Awesome. The computer is down. Bummer. The guy starts hitting the computer and cussing. Buzz kill. I have a to go order I say. "Name?" Lindsay. Yeah it's not done yet. What? So I wait. It comes out of the oven 10 minutes later. Total time for pizza? 40 minutes.Taste when I got home? Delicious. The pizza was absolutely yummy. I really do like Slice pizza, I think it's some of the best pizza in New Orleans. Slice St. Charles is a small space. There is no way around it. The Slice on Magazine is much better for dining in. However, I still like the pizza and the St. Charles location is much closer for me. Delicious homemade pizza, even if the wait is a little too long for the product. My advice? Go for a late lunch and take advantage of their happy hour and lack of crowd. But overall, if you're looking for pizza in New Orleans, this is pretty frickin good.

Go to place for pizza. Good pasta & salads too. The only place that I know of in NOLA that sells by the slice.

My first taste of New Orleans was Slice. Pizza, hmm... Now what I wouldve thought of, but it was awesome pizza at that. Took a few minutes to cook, but the slice I got was worth it. We stayed down the road just a short walk away, but I would've driven for another slice after hanging out on Frenchmen St. Atmosphere and the music was very Baltimore, where I'm from, and the staff was pleasant, so it felt like a piece of home on St Charles Ave. I'll eat here again very soon. Hopefully sooner than I expected! New Orleans did something to me unexplainable, and it's places like this that are pullin me back!

Talk about an unassuming place, Slice is it. Located near Lee circle, this place is easy to access using the St. Charles street car line. There is street parking but usually is filled up. I discovered the place quite by accident but I'm glad I did. I went in thinking "OK, gourmet pizza by the slice. good deal". I was pleasantly surprised. Waitstaff is funny and friendly, and the food is great. I went in as a party of four and we all got something different. Mine was called a Trucker, it was from the Calzone section of the menu and it was one of the best calzones I've ever had and I'm from New England and lived in Italy. Leave to NOLA to make the calzone their own, Slice serves it bent in a crescent shape, what can you expect from the crescent city. It was just the right amount of olive oil, meat juices and cheese oil. Blended together a fabulous balance. Slice does them slightly different in that they serve the sauce on the side and not in the calzone. Portion sizes are good, bordering on huge but that just means you can have it the next day for breakfast. If you want a great pizza treat in NOLA, you can't go wrong with Slice. Only criticism is that rest rooms are below par, only real compliant.

Ryan W.
Slice is fighting to overtake Reginelli's for my favorite Pizza in the metro area. The Pizza is delish, and you can by it, as the name implies, by the slice. The only drawback is the place trys too hard too be "hip" and it can (but dows not always) show in the attitude of the waitstaff and the speed of the kitchen.

Moving up! Now at 4 stars from my original 2. This place is really starting to rock it out. Service has been consistant, as well as food. Still wanting to have a slammin' Pizza from here as my past pizza experiences have been mediocre.

The happy hour beer special (M-F, 4-7) is amazing. For 5 bucks you get a pitcher of NOLA Brown or NOLA Blonde. 5 bucks! Or you can get a pint for $2.75. And the pitchers are big! Best beer bargain in town, no doubt. I went for the first time, attracted by the cheap, quality beer. The pizza was the best I've eaten in this town. I had a slice of Bacon Basil and Garlic, and a slice of Proscuito, Gargonzola, and Arugula. Outstanding. Tons of garlic, tons of gargonzola. I wanted a slice of Shrimp and Andouille pizza, but it was $5.75. A bit pricey. But I had my 2 gourmet slices, and 4 pints of beer from the pitcher, and ended up paying just $13!!! The server was good (and cute).

We went to New Orleans for a conference/vacation and ended up eating here 3 times. We eat out a lot and everywhere was so tourist like. I think this is the type of place I would eat if I lived in New Orleans to avoid the tourists. Lots of variety, helpful staff. Nice little bar in the back but family friendly in the front. Kids liked picking out their own popsicles from the cooler.

Eboni F.
One word. Amazing! Had a Spinach salad and the pesto ravioli w/ chicken and bacon. The food was phenomenally fresh and tasty. The roasted tomatoes in the salad were just great. I called ahead for pick-up so when I got it home it was warm. I can only imagine how great it would be getting it straight outta the oven.... Next time I''ll dine in!

Amanda G.
My coworkers and I used to eat lunch here sometimes when I worked downtown. The pizza was ok. The mussels were delish! The service was very slow and we quickly realized that it is not a place to go when you only have an hour for your lunch break. *** EDIT/UPDATE *** Yes - The serivce still leaves much to be desired - however, I have recently fallen in love with "The White Pie." It's yummo & you should try it :)

Shanna D.
We are NOT New York or Chicago, those places are known for their pizza. I've personally experience both and they are hard to beat, but if you live in New Orleans or just visiting and craving a pizza then Slice is the best pizza in town. No pre-made frozen crust here. The crust is thin, light and crispy (corn meal sprinkled on the bottom of the pan makes the crust crispy) you can try it at home when making your own pizza, it works! :) All the topping are fresh and plentiful. Great service and reasonably priced. Order a pitcher of Abita Beer and Enjoy! :)

FINALLY, I find a place in New Orleans that seems not to be teeming with tourists ... tough to find "locals" places in this town. The chicken, bacon, and basil ravioli were insanely delicious - perfectly cheesy, baked hot in a cast-iron dish, flavorful - the crushed tomato sauce was the perfect foundation on which the other flavors were built, and the fresh basil on top simply POPPED in my mouth. Wonderful. Warm, friendly, accommodating and casual - not to metion very reasonably priced, Slice is a gem ... smack dab on St Charles - easy street parking on the sidestreets.

First, I must stipulate that I am an Italophilic pizza fan, so a place like Slice is starting with a strike against it (Italians know nothing of slices and eat pizza whole, with knife and fork). Despite this, I love Slice and eat there very regularly. The pizza is, obviously, great-thin crusted, little or no char but crispy handle. I love the white pizza with arugula, or the standard cheese with ricotta and mushrooms added. Calzones are enormous and delicious.Their salads, especially the mesculin, are quite good, and they make a decent cacio e pepe pasta. On the minus side, their bruschetta with tomatos and balsamic is borderline inedible. Service can be passive-aggressive, low grade hostile to newcomers unless one is festooned with tattoos and projects a punk rock aura.

Ernest P.
Nice that the restaurant was only a block from our hotel. Stopped by during happy hour and got a large pitcher of Abita for $5. Orderd mushroom-goat cheese bruschetta which was simple yet perfectly executed. Bread crispy and not too thick. Also had a half salad, perfect portion. BBQ Shrimp was full of flavor, rich and garlicky. Shrimp were not huge but tasted nice and fresh, and were not overcooked. Had a slice of white and a slice of regular. Both delicious, but enjoyed the regular a bit more. In any case the dough was delicious. Would have definitely eaten here again had we more time to spend in town.

Mike C.
Payed a visit to Slice while staying at a B&B on Prytania St. The white pizza was awesome; just like what I used to get while living in the northeast! I'll definitly keep this place in mind if I make it back to New Orleans in the future.

Nathan M.
Slightly upscale atmosphere with casual joint prices and one of my top go-to places. Slice has a great menu selection for both meat lovers and the veggie people without a qualitative drop in flavor. Like most self respecting pie shop, you can order by the slice which is good for those that are indecisive or have a hankering for a wide variety of flavors. You cannot go wrong with any of the pies. Slice's other menu options are fantastic as well. The Trucker and Roasted Garden calzones are two of my favorite items on their menu and will leave you full without feeling overly stuffed. I cannot comment on the Magazine location, but the staff are great at the St. Charles location. They are always nice and quick with service. If you are looking for a good pizza or Italian lunch or dinner, Slice is definitely the place to go.
(5)
Eleni F.
Probably my favorite pizza in New Orleans. I love that you can get any of their pizzas by the slice, and one is enough to fill you up, wash it down with an Abita amber and I am in pizza heaven. The dough is tender with just the slightest bit of crispyness on the edges, the sauce is smooth and flavorful and the toppings run the gambit. Enjoy!

Tuna D.
Ive been to this place a couple of times but only the last time that I was there did I finally have some good service. From greetin ya at the door to the waittress making sure that I was doing ok. In the past, I thought the food was ok and overpriced including the service was horriendous with the waittress and their nasty ass attitudes. On this last trip to Slice, I met some co-workers there for some pizza. I protested at first, but decided to go ahead and meet them there. I went ahead and ordered the strawberry salad, it was ok, nothing to brag about. Next up, I had the caprese salad. Damn but it was good with that balsamic syrup dressing. I liked that it was the caprese iteself was not drenched in the dressing. Just a subtle toss here and there...perfect. I can still think about those wonderful sliced tomatos with the yummy slices of mozzarella cheese. So light with the perfect compliment of the sweet balsamic syrup. Next, the guys came in and both ordered. The calzone is humungous. The other guy ordered 5 slices of pizza to which the waittress made a bet that he wouldnt finish it. She was right. I ordered a white slice, plain, but that thin and crispy crust has me yearning to come back. Hmmmmmmm....food. Ok, the place is a bit tight and gets crowded fast so you have to hurry if you want to get a table for lunch or dinner. It's cash and credit. As far as family friendly---hmmmm...could be. Parking is offstreet.

T. J.
(I have only eaten at the Magazine Street location) For years, my favorite pizza in New Orleans has been Roman Pizza on Cohn Street in Uptown. But now I'm thinking I may like Slice even more. Oddly enough, the pizza here seems to taste even better when I just order a slice. When we get an entire pizza, the crust doesn't seem to be quite as crispy and it's a little on the wet side. Still a great pizza, but their pizza by the slice is the best. If you like New York style pizza like me, I think you'll like Slice.
(5)
Prescott R.
Quality pizza joint in NO. I don't say this lightly being originally from NY and love NY Pizza. Though I did not have pizza the calzone I had was fantastic, you could tell all the ingredients were fresh. The vegs and the cheese are on point, the calzone dough was cooked to perfection, crispy and brown on the outside and chew and tasty on the inside. The bar drinks are what you expect in NO, strong and tasty. I had a mango margarita on the rocks....dudes don't drink slushies. They made their own mango infused tequila....now that's a real restaurant.

Thomas C.
Stopped here on Tuesday afternoon for a late lunch: one of their specialty slices and an Abita draft. I can't remark about much on the menu, since I only had one item, but that was terrific, and to judge from the the other plates around me, Slice does it right; all of it looked good---entrees, sandwiches, pies---even on a rainy Tuesday at 2:30pm. Can't imagine pizza getting much better in NOLA (though if you're looking for New York style, continue onward). Good atmosphere and service, the only drawback being the tight parking off St. Charles.
(5)
Chris C.
Love this place. Where else can you try speciality pizzas by the slice. The prices are very reasonable and one slice is enough for a meal. Everything we have tried has been good. The garlic bread with cheese is great. The MTB Panini (mozzarella, tomato, basil-pesto) is terrific. The ingredients are very fresh. Recent bonus. They now have Aventinus Weizenbock beer on tap from Germany. This is a strong, dark, wheat doppelbock. They serve it in authentic glasses. With 8.2% alcohol, this beer has a kick!
(5)
Allison R.
I keep trying to get into Slice, but every time I go, I keep getting another reason to not like it. There is NOTHING on the menu without cheese on it. When you ask them for something without cheese , either it comes pre-made like that or they just can't do it. The one thing I had ont he menu that was excellent, they took off. Not my favorite place to eat.

Kelsey K.
Being from Chicago, I'm a total pizza snob, but this place was really good and damn cheap. Bottles of wine for $10, not kidding you. The service was great and the pizza selections seemed to be authentic NOLA, at least from what I can tell. I mean, not that I'm the best judge or anything...

Mr N.
The ceaser salad was a good size to split and the pizza we chose was the Fresh Pizza which was perfectly cooked. The staff was friendly and really got along well with each other. There is also a full bar in the back. Parker Posey was in there and thanked and complimented on the pizza to the workers while we were there. The staff was pleased. :)

Dyanna P.
Great little place! We stopped in on a rainy Friday and the place was packed. After waiting about ten minutes for a table, we were seated and ordered drinks (iced teas), salads (arugula and gorgonzola for my companion and caprese for me), and our meals. I decided on the old-standby pepperoni while he ordered a slice of the arugula, mozzarella, and prosciutto. Our salads came out pretty quickly, and we both enjoyed them immensely. The caprese was made with Slice's homemade mozzarella, and man... it was incredible - possibly the best caprese I've ever had. But then we waited for our pizza. And we waited. And we waited some more. We waited close to 45 minutes for two slices of pizza. When they finally arrived, I was convinced they would be cold, but they weren't. But I did laugh at my friend's pizza, which was a slice of cheese pizza with prosciutto and arugula plopped on top after the pizza had been taken out of the oven. He said it was really good, but the presentation was very disappointing. Tasty pizza, nice folks, but nothing special.

I am not a big pizza person !! But times have changed... this pizza was amazing , had the 1/2 fresh and the other half gorgonzola ham and arugula ..... Amazing pizza can't wait to have it again ! Great place great pizza !!!

I often find myself driving by slice but never had the urge to go inside. After reading all the rave reviews I decided to give it a go. I wasn't disappointed, they have a good and unique selection of pizza and the thin crust is great. I'm not sure if I prefer this place over Regenelli's. I'll have to come back a few more times to decide that.
(4)
David A.
Excellent pizza! They probably have the best crust and sauce I have ever eaten. I loved the "special". As others have suggested, make your way to the back of the restaurant if you want to have a quiet meal. The front is ok if you don't mind the hustle and bustle of the kitchen. We will definitely be back. Slice is probably my 2nd favorite pizza place in the country, but I lived in NYC for 2 years. You can't beat that. :-)

The pizza was OK. I've had a lot better. The place smelled like a moldy basement and messed with the experience. Waitstaff continually suggested drinks even though we told them we weren't going to be drinking that night and then kept passing up our table even though the place was nearly empty! Small, cramped, smelly, overly hyped. I would advise if you're going to eat pizza from Slice, order it to go. Would have had a better review if I just took the food home.

Absolutely the best pizza in New Orleans. The place is fast, casual, reasonably priced, and friendly. And of course the pizza is awesome! It is an excellent thin, New York style pizza you can buy by the slice or a whole pie. It is made with very high quality ingredients, a fantastic sauce, and perfect crust. We eat here several times a month. If you like Slice you will also like their sister restaurant, Juan's Flying Burrito.

I am still in shock that we found such a gem hidden in plain sight on St. Charles St. The food was amazing, super-fast, friendly service, and their price fixed dinners, and $5 pitchers make me want this place to open a sister restaurant in San Francisco. It was our first Lunch in New Oreleans, and we stopped by Slice on while walking to the Garden District. We wanted to stay local, fresh, and cheap. We walked by a few different choices, but one look at the breadboard with the daily special of a roasted pepper, spinach, eggplant, and goat cheese panini sealed the deal. I settled on the Muffuletta panini and a sweet tea. The service was quick, friendly and the food arrived promptly, each sandwich flanked with a decent portion of salad, and we dug in. For the record, this was my first Muffuletta in New Orleans, and I did later try the Muffuletta at Napolean House and at Central Grocery. I was instantly in love with this variation. The bread was Crispy and crunchy, the inside was gooey and warm, and had the perfect combination of Italian meats and olive spread. I cannot describe how amazing the sandwich was, and to this day I still think it holds the crown for best Muffuletta in New Orleans, albeit in a very different style than the traditional. My partner had the Veggie Panini, and was very pleased with the whole meal. The salad accompanying the veggie panini was slightly different than with my Muffuletta, but paired very nicely. We spent less than $20 and had a fantastic meal for two... what else could you ask for? Oh yeah... a $5 Pitcher of Domestic beer... Done and Done.

Just got home from my Honeymoon in New Orleans. We spent 5 days there. We went to Commander's Palace, Dooky Chase, Surrey's Cafe, Parkway Bakery and Tavern, Cochon, and Slice Pizzeria. I only went back a second time to one place....yep...I had to have another Slice of the meat lover's pizza. yum yum.

We came back here 2x in 16 days while we were here in New Orleans! I know pizza's not what you're looking for while you're in New Orleans, but they have some great selections of different pizzas that make you want to come back again to try the ones you didn't try the first time! 1. They have an EXTREMELY reasonable and cheap price. Their gourmet slices, which are huge and filling, run around $3 per slice. That's like almost COSTCO pizza prices!!! 2. Their ingredients are noticeably fresh, even to the average joe! Garlic, prosciutto, the cheese! 3. Barbecue shrimp for the win! My coworker and I shared a plate both times and we were in heaven. The bread and the sauce were just perfect complements to each other and the portion was fantastic for the appetizer. 4. Service was great. The waiters were very attentive and kept us well and happy with drinks throughout dinner. I'm from LA and I've been to Pizzeria Mozza and all those snazzy pizza places in LA, but this one is definitely up there without the super expensive prices of those other places. Love Slice!

Pizza has been one of my favorite foods since I was a wee tot, so I'm always looking for new places to try when I travel. Slice was recommended to us by some friends that live in NOLA and I'm so happy we tried it. Why I heart slice: 1. You can customize individual slices of pizza. 2. BACON is a topping choice 3. The crust! It's crisp, thin and holds all the toppings without sagging! 4. The atmosphere is great and the service was top notch I'll see you again one day Slice.....

F-A-Bulous! Slice has a great variety of pizzas and they are ALWAYS fresh. Sizeable portions too! Wait staff is prompt and friendly. Location is great!

Located on St. Charles in the Garden District, Slice is a decent place to find pizza and other Italian-like dishes. The crust is made very well, has a great flavor, and is a good balance between crispy and soft. I am not, however, a big fan of the sauce. The pizza sauce is very thin and tastes more like marinara sauce instead of pizza sauce. Despite the runny sauce, I did enjoy the flavor of my pineapple and ham pizza. Oh and they don't make breadsticks...bummer. On another trip I tried the lasagna; again it was just okay. Same sauce. Service is friendly but the wait for food is long...took about 30 minutes (at least) to receive our entrees during both visits. I have not had the opportunity to try other pizza places in NOLA, so for now I will return to Slice, but there is a definite possibility that I might find better.

Nice staff, great food, cheap eats, no wait (if you don't hit it up at peak hours). I'm definitely not a salad person but I really like their arugula and mesclun. Last night we shared a bacon, basil, and garlic pizza-- thin crust, fresh stretchy cheese, piping hot, with lots of crumbled fatty bacon, slices of basil, and whole cloves of roasted garlic--de-fucking-licious, while they accomodated my vegan friend's request for cheeseless garlic bread and sauce. The spot is bigger than you'd think, it stretches out to the back, and there's outdoor seating as well. Prices are good for New Orleans, $7 for half a salad (and it's definitely enough) and a drink (mojito). Their happy hour is a great deal as well.

Jared F.
This is a really good pizza restaurant. My lady friend from chicago would say my assumption of calling it "best in the country" blasphemy, but she agrees it good though. Relatively cheap, and a good amount of options. I would personally recommend the Portofino (unless you hate shrimp) but if you go in, it's a little small.
(5)
Christin D.
I will tell people about this place and how good it was until I'm in my grave. I had a slice of the shrimp-andouille pizza and a create your own slice with goat cheese, caramelized onions, and spinach. All I can say is WOW. A few days later I came back with friends and they confirmed it's awesomeness. The chocolate chip bread pudding was also really great. I'm seriously sad just thinking about it and how I'm not in NOLA anymore. I'm also drooling.

Kirun M.
The slices here are really good (and fresh). We got one slice each and shared a bread pudding. A great, no fuss meal under $15. I'll be back.

Stopped here for lunch when we visited NOLA in July. Delicious pizza at a great price! I ordered the Fresh and my husband ordered the Prosciutto, Gorgonzola, and Arugula. Both were amazing but after trying a bite of my hubby's I insisted we share. Friendly staff, particularly the owner. We will be back next time we are in NOLA.

Gira M.
I love love love Slice. Their Meat Lover's pizza with extra cheese is what I always get when I need an instant shot of protein. The soda glasses are always full, they feature local artists on the walls, the waitstaff is always attentive and helpful. (Just don't order espresso!)

I wish I could give 4 1/2 stars....the pizza was awesome! Bacon, Basil & Garlic + Mushrooms = good stuff. If you are a pizza fan, it doesnt get much better than this.

I was in NOLA last week on business, had two locals recommended this place, so skipped out on a afternoon business meeting and took the trolley to the "garden district". We ate the Arugula salad which had been highly recommended and can I say the greatest thing ever. We had pizza also, which the crust was to die for. I can hardly wait until business or pleasure brings me back to New Orleans...this will be my first stop!!!
(5)
Lisa W.
I love, love, love Slice, especially the St. Charles location. The food is always delicious and the staff is rad. I'm addicted to the the bacon, garlic, & basil pizza but the recent special slice, fried green tomatoes with pancetta (I think) on the white pie was f'*#cking delicious.. I am never disappointed.

Danny K.
I walked into SLICE on a recommendation from a local when I inquired about good local eats. I went on a hot July day and was greeted with air-conditioning and a cold drink. The menu gave good variety but I'm a simple guy when it comes to pizza so I ordered the Trucker Calzone which contains pepperoni, italian sauusage bacon & ham. While waiting I took the opportunity to take in the charm of the restaurant. It's one of those typical trendy-non-franchise places complete with local art on the wall and chalkboards filled with daily specials. I love a place with good service and was plesantly surprised when my waitress refilled my drink before I had even finished my Coke. All the pizza is made to order, unlike many other pizza places that reheat pre-made pizza. My calzone came out pipping hot and boy was it delicious. I wanted to save room for one of their frozen treats but there was literally no more room after eating only 3/4 of my calzone. Come here, you won't be dissapointed.

Great pizza! I love that you can order a single slice of any pizza and try some different flavors. Great service, cute restaurant.

Adriana G.
When I lived in NOLA I would come here often. I LOVE the Fresh pizza!! This is one of the few restaurants in New Orleans where you can find a variety of vegetarian options. On my last trip I of course came to Slice and realized that you can build your own slice! WOW! All this time my roommate and I would always order 2 pizzas and have a ton of leftovers, which really isn't a problem ;-). One time the waiter made a comment about how 2 young ladies were ordering 2 pizzas that would feed a crowd. We all got a good laugh out of it. The staff here is incredibly nice and will crack jokes with you. The environment here is always lively and busy. It's a great casual place to grab some pizza and beer with a few friends.

Service was fast and friendly. Arugula salad was good. G's pasta dish was too oily and okay he said. Mussels made me sick. Very sick; took about 20 minutes before my intestines began convulsions like I had never experienced.......... I am now afraid of their food, no matter what. Everyone else seems to love the pizza, so stay safe and stick to the pizza.

Tiffany S.
Sooo good. Sooo sooo good. Try the alligator sausage. Yum!! We also had the spinach, sundried tomato, and artichoke. Mmmm... The woman who took our to-go order was friendly and shared her suggestions. Thin crust pizza. Quality ingredients (you can taste it). Reminds me of Pie in the Sky in Berkeley, CA.

Nick S.
earlier today my first 5 out of 5, now my second. this is by far the best pizza i have eaten. the crust is sooo delicious. all the ingredients fresh and flavorful. Coolest part, you can order by the slice and make it your way. want 10 slices 10 different ways, go for it. we had just got done eating at another restaurant but heard good things and wanted to stop by here just to try it. so glad we did. i had the special, my wife had the prosciutto gorgonzola arugula, both were amazing, and like i said the crust was WOW, the topping were just plain tasty. we sat at the bar and the bartender was super nice and helpful and very friendly. would come back just to have a drink with this chap.

Michelle D.
i'd like to give slice a bad review because i really can't stand listening to an entire motorhead album while i'm eating. really after i've heard "killed by death" and "ace of spades" i've had my fill of lemmy. the staff all appear to be on drugs and i'm certain one of the waitresses stole my sweater - i left it in the booth, came back to fetch it and it was gone - *shrug*. probably the best pizza in N.O.. indifferent service, never a bad meal.

Katherine J.
Used to be the best pizza place in town but the last two times we've been there, the food has been really mediocre. The thing that has turned me away permanently, is the total lack of concern about the quality of the food, service or the restaurant atmosphere. If you're looking for a bar that serves mediocre pizza this is your place, but if you're looking for a decent pie do yourself a favor and go elsewhere. (Note: this is about the newer Magazine location)

The food, prices, and atmosphere are good. We like it because my daughter can get a plain slice and we can get something different. My only complaint is it is one of those places where they don't write down your order, so mistakes happen. Last time they forgot our appetizer entirely.

Pizza is a famous Italian dish savored around the world. The entire credit for the popularity of Pizza in the United States goes to the chain of pizzerias all over the country. While the base and the texture of Pizza remains same across the globe, it's the toppings that differs from country to country. In the United States, you will find the top pizzerias serving pizzas with the toppings of mainly beef, bacon, chicken, ham, and sausage for the non-vegetarians. Other than these famous meat options, Pizzas with veg toppings such as mushrooms, pepperonis, garlic, tomatoes, spinach, etc. are also famous in most restaurants in the United States.
Irrespective of your locality, you will find a variety of different restaurants in your cities offering pizzas of all different types. Pizza is hot favorite among people of all ages in the United States. A large size pizza is enough to feed a family of 3 or 4 at large. Pizza is also the most preferred food whenever a group of friends is hanging out together. Pizza gained popularity in the United States after the American soldiers stationed in Italy returned from World War II.
Over the years, different pizzerias in the United States have developed their own respective regional variations. Pizza gained popularity as the iconic dish in the United States in the second half of the 20th century. Whether you prefer thin or thick crust pizza, you can find a pizza of your preference at the best pizza restaurants in your city.
Italian Cuisine
The immense popularity of Italian cuisine globally isn't unknown. You can find an Italian Pizzeria around every corner of almost every city in the United States. Not to forget that in every house, people enjoy mac and cheese as comfort food. But it would be wrong to believe that Italian food starts with pizza and ends with good pasta as this Mediterranean country has much more to offer other than these two dishes. In Italian Cuisine, there is a high use of fresh tomatoes, all kinds of herbs, great quality of cheese, all types of meat, seafood and fresh handmade pasta. Many find it hard to believe that Italians have been making noodles long back.
Italian and Greek cuisines are always mistaken to be same, but they are poles apart. The primary difference between the two cuisines is the use of cheese in most of the Italian dishes. Italians love to cultivate their own cheese and process them as per their food requirement. It is believed that some cheese is so expensive that cheese producers secure them in lockers.
If you are bored eating the same old pasta or pizza, you can try some of the authentic Italian dishes like Risotto, Polenta, Ribollita, Lasagna, Fiorentina Steak, Bottarga, Ossobuco, Carbonara, Focaccia, Arancini and Supplì. Another item which Italians love to relish every morning is a good cup of Italian Coffee. Once you taste a freshly brewed cup of Italian Coffee, you might not visit Starbucks ever again. Authentic Italian food is made with heart and soul, so go find a restaurant where you can relish Italian cuisine in your city.

Being from Chicago, I'm a total pizza snob, but this place was really good and damn cheap. Bottles of wine for $10, not kidding you. The service was great and the pizza selections seemed to be authentic NOLA, at least from what I can tell. I mean, not that I'm the best judge or anything...
(5)Dyanna P.
Great little place! We stopped in on a rainy Friday and the place was packed. After waiting about ten minutes for a table, we were seated and ordered drinks (iced teas), salads (arugula and gorgonzola for my companion and caprese for me), and our meals. I decided on the old-standby pepperoni while he ordered a slice of the arugula, mozzarella, and prosciutto. Our salads came out pretty quickly, and we both enjoyed them immensely. The caprese was made with Slice's homemade mozzarella, and man... it was incredible - possibly the best caprese I've ever had. But then we waited for our pizza. And we waited. And we waited some more. We waited close to 45 minutes for two slices of pizza. When they finally arrived, I was convinced they would be cold, but they weren't. But I did laugh at my friend's pizza, which was a slice of cheese pizza with prosciutto and arugula plopped on top after the pizza had been taken out of the oven. He said it was really good, but the presentation was very disappointing. Tasty pizza, nice folks, but nothing special.
(4)James M.
I am not a big pizza person !! But times have changed... this pizza was amazing , had the 1/2 fresh and the other half gorgonzola ham and arugula ..... Amazing pizza can't wait to have it again ! Great place great pizza !!!
(5)Russell W.
I often find myself driving by slice but never had the urge to go inside. After reading all the rave reviews I decided to give it a go. I wasn't disappointed, they have a good and unique selection of pizza and the thin crust is great. I'm not sure if I prefer this place over Regenelli's. I'll have to come back a few more times to decide that.
(4)David A.
Excellent pizza! They probably have the best crust and sauce I have ever eaten. I loved the "special". As others have suggested, make your way to the back of the restaurant if you want to have a quiet meal. The front is ok if you don't mind the hustle and bustle of the kitchen. We will definitely be back. Slice is probably my 2nd favorite pizza place in the country, but I lived in NYC for 2 years. You can't beat that. :-)

The ceaser salad was a good size to split and the pizza we chose was the Fresh Pizza which was perfectly cooked. The staff was friendly and really got along well with each other. There is also a full bar in the back. Parker Posey was in there and thanked and complimented on the pizza to the workers while we were there. The staff was pleased. :)
(5)Adolfo A.
The pizza was OK. I've had a lot better. The place smelled like a moldy basement and messed with the experience. Waitstaff continually suggested drinks even though we told them we weren't going to be drinking that night and then kept passing up our table even though the place was nearly empty! Small, cramped, smelly, overly hyped. I would advise if you're going to eat pizza from Slice, order it to go. Would have had a better review if I just took the food home.

i'd like to give slice a bad review because i really can't stand listening to an entire motorhead album while i'm eating. really after i've heard "killed by death" and "ace of spades" i've had my fill of lemmy. the staff all appear to be on drugs and i'm certain one of the waitresses stole my sweater - i left it in the booth, came back to fetch it and it was gone - *shrug*. probably the best pizza in N.O.. indifferent service, never a bad meal.

Used to be the best pizza place in town but the last two times we've been there, the food has been really mediocre. The thing that has turned me away permanently, is the total lack of concern about the quality of the food, service or the restaurant atmosphere. If you're looking for a bar that serves mediocre pizza this is your place, but if you're looking for a decent pie do yourself a favor and go elsewhere. (Note: this is about the newer Magazine location)

Eclectic customers, and good food at reasonable prices. What more do you want?
(4)Jonathan B.
Great pizza great salad. The waiter cool and had cool tatoos.
(5)shaun c.
Get the special... very tasty.
(5)Jerri H.
The food, prices, and atmosphere are good. We like it because my daughter can get a plain slice and we can get something different. My only complaint is it is one of those places where they don't write down your order, so mistakes happen. Last time they forgot our appetizer entirely.
(4)Ben B.
Atmosphere and vibe were great. However, I got a couple slices of pizza to go, and the sauce was just bland.
(3)Mike W.
i really enjoy this place the people were real nice and the atmosphere is really cool. perfect place to take your date too.
(4)Amber M.
i had some darn good pizza at the magazine street location last week....
(4)Scott W.
Great Pizza Joint. Low key and relaxed.
(5)Vicky L.
I went here over the Halloween weekend, and it was a great experience. I thought this place would be packed and service would bad, but it wasn't. My group of 4 was promptly seated, the waitress was sweet and our food came out hot and well made. I have been told about their banana bread pudding, that it was a must try. When I went, they didn't have that, they had a plum bread pudding instead. Many months later, I still remember how delicious it was.
(4)Karen Z.
A good salad, tasty slice and reasonable price. Had the bacon, basil and garlic pizza (gracias, Yelpers!) and it was great. Hip atmosphere. A few tables on the sidewalk. We opted for outdoor seating because the indoor section was too cold. If I lived here, I'd probably become a regular here. :)
(4)Brandon M.
Haven't been here in forever but every time I come the food is always excellent...I got the Special D-Luxe slice...only need one...
(4)Dustin D.
This place is amazing. You'd never guess this place would be so cool from looking at it from the outside. There is much more seating than you would think and so far I've yet to be disappointed by any of the pizza we've ordered.
(5)Sheri M.
My caprese salad was barely edible, Moz and tomatoes were hard, the balsamic vinaigrette was like tar and was blech. The calzone, in my spawn 1's opinion: "Meh" and I quote spawn 2: "I only ate 2 slices of the pizza b/c I was starving, I didn't like it and the crust was so thin all the topping fell off everytime I tried to eat it." I've been here before and things were better, I'll give it another go and hopefully I can up the stars on my next visit.
(2)Emily Z.
Typical of a tourist trap craphole, although the Slice on Magazine is great. Ingredients seem above average but a lazy crew works this one. Slice of pizza was really old, they threw my drink away when I went to the bathroom, little things that say "I don't care and I don't have to." So many better places nearby.
(2)Ashley C.
I visited Slice wanting some good pizza while in NOLA for a conference. The service was fantastic - just the right amount of attention. I was sitting by myself, but my server didn't make me feel like I was "taking up a table" I ordered a surprise calzone and it was absolutely delicious. I waited about 25 minutes for it, which just made me convinced they really did just make it. It had sausage, tomatoes, an unbelievable amount of cheese, spinach, and more. It was a perfect size - I got full about 3/4ths of the way through. I eavesdropped on the servers and cooks who chatted an equal mix of business and real life. They seemed to really enjoy working together, but ever let work go undone. Reasonable prices, great atmosphere. If you're looking for a great place to grab a pizza I highly recommend Slice.
(5)Eileen Z.
I'm still a fan! my "go to" place for a night out with my daughter. I can feel like a grown up and still go to a place that she will love. A great night out options. I LOVE the arugula salad its one of the best IMO. a bowl overflowing with fresh arugula a splash of lemon and olive oil and salt and pepper with a few slices of pecorino, just hits the spot for me. For pizza she gets the cheese slice and I get the prosciutto, gorgonzola, and arugula. There is seriously enough arugula on here to count as a salad and the flavors merry beautifully. I prefer the Magazine location on weeknights and St. Charles on a weekend day trip for atmosphere purposes, both are excellent!
(4)Christine D.
On subsequent visits Slice has made up for its first-time awkwardness. And, truthfully, no kind of mediocre service could keep me away from the amazingness that is the "fresh" pizza. The "Fresh" pizza is so good i considered taking one home, just for the next morning, in case i woke up hungry. The fresh pie comes without any sauce but the mozzarella is piled on. MMM. Then there are tomato slices and fresh basil all on top. I can't do it justice with words. Every one of their salads is good, but a little expensive for the size. The waitresses (i've only had ladies) have all been more welcoming than my first visit. Yesterday they even offered me crostini (i'm not cool with paying for bread before a meal) to stave off my crazed-monster look i get when i'm low on foods. My final service comment is that i hate when they bring you the bill half-way through your meal!!! What if you wanted to order another drink? Or a dessert even?! I understand that they're being proactive or whatever but it's really one of the rudest things you can do to someone enjoying their meal- and it's happened to me at Slice over and over. Which is why I can't review their desserts. So, Slice is getting a better review this time because maybe the staff were having a bad night my first time around. But, I must say, it's a little unnerving that there are a few (3 or 4) children running (literally running) back and forth through this little place. I wanted to grab one and shout "that's enough!" before he knocked into someone's beer or splattered some marinara everywhere.
(4)Marielle S.
I had actually never eaten here when my boyfriend brought me to this place a few months back. I got some kind of calzone that was really salty and cheesy. The cheese wasn't bad, but it was a little too salty for my liking. Also, we went on a Saturday night, and although they weren't insanely packed, it took them forever to get us our order. I would go back again (my rule is to try a place twice, unless the food is horrible), but I would be more careful about what I order (when they call something "meaty", they mean it!).
(3)Sharein E.
Delish pizza and Salads. Ate here twice and could have eaten here again. So yummy, and pretty quick. I am from New York and I can honestly say... This pizza is BETTER. Not greasy... full of flavor. Yumm!
(5)Luca P.
I had the special slice (which was loaded with baked potato, garlic, cheese, chives and optional bacon) and it was fantastic. Now this is not a thick slice, on the contrary. I'd say it's a bit costly for such a teeny slice (hence the 4 stars) but it tasted very good. Their Italian Soda is awesome too.
(4)Donald H.
Ordered a medium special deluxe and a pitcher of Abita. What an excellent combo. Well the pizza was way better than anything we have in northern Indiana. The Abita was cold and fresh and helped numb my senses as I wolfed down 5 slices, while my wife could barely finish her 3rd. The servers were extremely friendly as well as all the staff acknowledged our leaving and thanked us for dining there. Way cool, friendly people. The back room was really warm when we got there, no big deal they kicked the air up a notch for us immediately. Perfect comfort... A lot of room to sit inside and a few tables outside. Highly recommend this place as a must eat at if your craving pizza. Great environment with great people working there.
(5)Eric S.
Good pizza with great toppings, not sure the real name but i call it a slice of white. Pretty good, not greasy cooked perfect, and i love there slice of meat. I got a slice with Alligator sausage the other day it had corn and peppers with some green onions that was great. I have had there shrimp and Broccoli pasta which was awesome, but last couple times i have been there i was in a rush and didn't have time to enjoy. People there are really nice, and the food is good, and pretty cheap. Parking sucks but what can you expect on St Charles. I haven't had pizza better then this in New Orleans yet so when im uptown or even downtown i like to swing by for a slice of pie. Ow they started serving Popsicle wife had one she loved it, had chunks of fruits, its in a deep freezer by the front door with bunch of different flava's
(4)Mry Louise P.
It is my hypothesis that people who speak well of this place are either desperate or have never experienced pizza as it meant to be experienced. I enjoy a thin crust as much as the next (pizza) freak, & as many reviewers have already pointed out, this is Slice's purported speciality. However, I expect my thin crust to be thicker and more delicious than, say, a manilla envelope spread with garlic butter. I'd also prefer that the cheese not jump ship in one massive slithery scab before I've taken the first bite. At the very least, give me more than 3 pieces of wilted basil, and this on a "Fresh" slice, the description of which names basil as a main ingredient. There is clearly a pizza crisis happening in New Orleans. But it doesn't end there: $8 for a bbq shrimp "shared plate" that was mostly bread. $12 for a pitcher of very average beer, which we unsuspectingly agreed to at our waiter's suggestion. As for atmosphere, I'd sit in the belly of a whale for a good meal, but I gotta say they didn't do themselves any favors with the decor. It looks like a Boston College campus bar c.1999.
(2)Donovan F.
My preferred pizza spot in my neighborhood. Sometimes I'll crave their bacon/basil/garlic pizzas. Great toppings, great crust. Also, whenever I walk past the restaurant, I always spy on their front sidewalk board for menu items or specials that catch my eye and interest. I've had pretty much all their pizza and salad offerings (with nothing but positives to say about that), but I've yet to try any pasta dishes, so I have no comment on that. Is it the best pizza in the LGD? I've never put that to any scientific test. SO long as they keep me happy with their offerings, I have no reason to stray.
(4)Jen F.
Really good pizza place with a great menu, very very reasonable prices and great food. A place to visit again if you are in New Orleans!!! Do it!!!
(5)David B.
I love this place. The calzones are the best I ever had, the pizza is very good and everything is made from scratch. The desserts are okay, but just a bit too heavy after a good Italian meal. Regular's Tip: If you get the salad, ask for the dressing on the side.
(4)Rob C.
Wow, a good tasting pizza in NOLA. I would have gave it five but they don't deliver and they kinda skimped on the pepperoni. Really was a darn good pie though.
(4)Judy C.
Had a great meal here! Bf and I were waiting to watch the Krewe of Druids on St. Charles Street and were looking for a place to eat. I figured we should check out Slice since it was rated so highly. I was not disappointed. We came during happy hour and took advantage of their $2 Abita Amber and $5 mussels. The mussels were served in a wine sauce and was delicious. I had a slice of shrimp etoufee pizza and bf had the muffaletta panini. The pizza was awesome! Seriously, it was one of the best pizzas I've ever had. It was a huge slice of pizza loaded with shrimp, corn, tomatoes, and caramelized onions. The crust was crispy, not soggy, even with all those toppings. Bf also enjoyed his panini. We finished off our meal with a king cake pudding which was recommended by our waitress. It was delicious...a super sweet bread pudding. The whole meal was great and our bill including tax and 20%+ tip was a little over $35.
(5)Kelsey G.
I have such a crush on Slice! Wine Wednesdays hooked me in, distinctive toppings and toasty crust kept me coming back. This location in particular is comfy with groovy music and super nice staff. If pizza was actually a food category, I'd be in big trouble.
(5)Charay C.
Holy Moly! Best pizza in the Garden District! Was in NOLA for our honeymoon in Jan and new hubby (see his review..Jeffery M.) wanted a break from the culinary Cajun madness I was on, so we yelped pizza joints near our hotel on St. Charles and this place popped up. Eager to continue the gluttony of food and drink that filled our honeymoon, we ordered take out. Hubby got a slice of the meat pizza and I got a slice of the garlic, anduille sausage pizza, along with a hot cap and red velvet cupcake. Whoa! The pizza was thin crust, smelled great had a sweetish sauce and were huge! I think we paid about $2.50 a slice. The red velvet cupcake was perfect..not too sweet. We loved this place so much, we went twice!! The cap held up even after rewarming it up and drinking it the next morning! The next time we went, we sat down and ate..hubby got the calzone and it was massive! I got a slice of white pizza and a house salad. his was the best house salad I have ever had!!! It had sliced green olives and red onions..it was lovely! We were going to purchase t-shirts (we do that with eateries we really like) but the pickings were slim.
(5)Chrissy J.
Very happy we came here. Our first night visiting New Orleans, we passed so many scummy-looking restaurants. We just wanted to get some decent food before bed. Yelp helped up find Slice, right by our hotel. We knew it must be a good place since it was more full than the other places we had peeked in to, and we were so pleased! Pizza was great, and we were so excited that the beer list exceeded the usual bud and miller lite. Service was very good too. They made a mistake on our order, but sent the correct meal out as soon as they could and took it off our bill. So glad to have found this place!
(5)Bryan D.
Lots of pizza joints in the city, but this place does a great job melding the different flavors of the city with the traditional Italian classics. Check out the full menu, which includes some tasty drinks to wash down the fresh ingredients on your pie.
(5)Sam C.
Slice is absolutely delicious. Kind of artisan pizzas. I love the location on St. Charles, too. The only reason I'm not giving a five star review is because you really do have to pay for the quality. Normally that's not a problem for me, but we're talking about pizza here. That said, it's still totally worth going.
(4)Ryan S.
The Trucker Calzone was very good and probably deserves to be 4 stars. However when we ordered for delivery they said 40 minutes and it was over an hour and a half before it arrived- then once we got into our hotel room we discovered that we did not receive any utensils or napkins.
(3)Ellen C.
So is pizza without cheese still pizza? Some people tell me NO! Anyway, I've had cheeseless pizza from Slice several times and I can say they are delicious enough so that I really don't much mourn over the lack of dairy content. And if you eat cheese - all the better! My friends seem to all adore Slice so we've had several birthday celebrations, random get togethers there. They're pretty awesome about accommodating larger parties, but it doesn't hurt to notify them beforehand. That being said, I usually opt for the salad anyway, because I don't know, I guess I'm never really THAT hungry when I actually dine-in and no one really wants to share a cheeseless pizza with me (meanies). But no seriously, the salads are A-OK, but naturally, being that I eat salads everywhere, I've had better! They have a modest selection of beers on tap and a full bar in the back. Service is good, not great, but good. This place obviously isn't optimal if you're a vegan, but for a vegetarian - let the good times roll. I've heard many glowing reviews about their white pizza (? whatever it is). It's principally a pizza joint so if you're a pizza joint, definitely stop by. Just say no to Domino's!
(3)B K.
Excellent pizza, good atmosphere and good pricing. The meat lovers slice was piled high with meat and was delivered popping hot. The bacon, basil, and garlic was masterful. The basil had a bite to it, which was refreshing. The do have artesian cheeses but frankly i don't think i would order cheeses from this establishment due to the pub type atmosphere. Overall excellent like an oral utopia!
(5)Erica F.
This place was amazing. Fresh salads, amazing bruschetta, and the slice pizza was huge!! Awesome service and great food!!! A wonderful gem of a pizzeria!!! Will return for another yummy salad soon!!!
(5)Paul R.
Wow, it sure is difficult to find anything sour about this pizza haven. It's located right on St. Charles Ave., next to the Avenue Garden Hotel. Now that I think about it, I believe that particular hotel has a suite located just above the pizza parlor. Ahh, the Kensington suite. What a wild room, complete with sculpted statues, an Austin Powers-esque bed and mirrored ceilings....but, that story is for another day! I found Slice in the summer of 2005 and I've not found any pizza houses in the city that compare. The pizzas are always made fresh, have a great flavor and are reminiscent of the NY style. The big difference I see here, though, is the more gourmet feel that Slice adds to their pies. Plus, you probably won't find a pizza in NY with andouille sausage! They have such an eclectic selection, too. My personal favorite has always been the prosciutto, gorgonzola and arugula pizza pie from their specialty portion of the menu. Just for the record, I love cheese. I mean, like a lot. This particular pie has always cured me when I'm in a frenzy for cheese! Slice doesn't just serve pizza, though. They offer other treats in the form of fresh salads, poboys, subs, paninis, various pasta dishes and absolutely delishus calzones! OMG, the calzones are so good. I warn you, though, they are big for one person to eat. They come about the size of a spare tire that you'd find in your trunk (cuz' there's junk in there!) and stuffed with enough cheese to plug up an African elephant. Man, I'm getting hungry just thinking about this! The restaurant is shaped like a shotgun house in that it runs deep, not wide. To the rear of the restaurant, you'll find more cozy booths and a full bar to the right, stocked with all the classic beverages that one would require. They have a happy hour, I believe from 4-6 PM. In that time, certain drinks from the bar and all appetizers are half price. Not bad, especially if you're looking to grab a bite after work. In all, I only have a suggestion or two for people thinking of checking out the joint. First, the entire restaurant is not very big and because it is so good, it fills up pretty fast, especially on the weekends. My suggestion is that you get there early enough to avoid the line that's usually always just inside the door. Also, don't try to bring large groups of people with you because the seating is limited and you probably won't all be able to sit together. The food is terrific, made well and always fresh, the staff are courteous and attentive, the ambience is lively....what more could you ask for?
(5)David M.
This is pretty much my favorite pizza joint in the city of NOLa. For the price, it is all good. One of tonight's specials was the Blue Marlin panini: delicious Gulf fish (blue marlin), arugula pesto, smoked mozzarella, spinach, sun-dried tomatoes. Quite tasty, especially for $8.95+ tax. Also, a couple of weeks ago they renovated the restaurant so that the bar is now in front of the place & the back room now has more tables in the place where the bar was located.
(4)Sarah M.
The food here was pretty good and the portions huge. The only thing that dissappointed me was the service. We had three severs and I don't think any of them smiled once.
(3)Janet B.
Soo delicious!!!!calzone was gargantuan and the gorgonzola pizza had the right balance of favors.i actually enjoyed this pizza better than in Chicago!!shocking I know.great friendly service too.yummy cheese bread as well!definitely my go to place if I head back to Nola.:)
(5)Alana L.
I like to keep my pizza simple and the Slice pepperoni calzone is as good as it gets. Absolutely delicious and at under $10 it is a filling lower cost lunch on the Avenue.
(5)Diane S.
The location is great and just what I needed after a long drive from Houston. With that said, the drinks are meh, the chocolate chip bread pudding was greasy with a slight bitter aftertaste but the ravioli was outstanding! The service there was pretty good.
(3)Greg M.
My quest for the best pizza in NOLA didn't take long! What's not to love about the perfect slice & a great beer selection in a casual, friendly setting?
(5)Yasmin R.
No New York pizza, but it hits the spot.
(3)Big Baby D.
What can I say that hasn't already been said of this place. It's exceptional. The concept, a single slice of pie any style you want to include gourmet toppings at a reasonable price, is awesome. Price is right, beer is cold, food is prepared very well. Never been disappointed by this place, from the salads to the pie.
(5)august g.
I go here fairly often during the week, and I'd suggest this is definitely the time to go. The daily drink specials are hard to beat. One day is half price bottle wine, and another is half price pitchers of beers. Pretty unbeatable. The pizza isn't amazing, but as far as New Orleans pizza goes, it is pretty good. Although the crust is a little too hard/crunchy for me. But they definitely make up for this with quality toppings (prosciutto, artichoke hearts, house made mozzarella, etc.), and interesting combinations for their full pies. Always great service and great atmosphere, and for the price point (especially during the week if you want a drink) it hits the spot.
(4)Kelly L.
THE POWER OF SLICE COMPELS YOU! THE POWER OF SLICE COMPELS YOU! :::puts down crucifix::: New Orleans is not a town known for it's amazing pizza joints. I've made peace with that since I live near/often go into New York City for what is considered to be the country's best Italian pies (shut up Chicago, no one wants to hear any of your deep-dish LIP!). I've resigned myself to all the amazing food New Orleans is known for that I cannot get back home, except for once. I had a craving for Pizza and nothing else would do. Slice was on my list since it was (at that time, not sure if it still is) somewhat affiliated with Juan's Flying Burrito which I luuuurve, so I hopped the streetcar, rode it down St.Charles and tripped off at the stop right near Slice. The Pizza? It's about as good as you've got, which isn't as good as I can get (but y'all can rub beignets and chicory coffee in my face daily as I eat a crappy donut and motor oil blend from Dunkin' Donuts). The staff was friendly, the salads were fresh and decently sized and they had a pretty rad wine special. All in all a successful craving satiated, and a bank account not too terribly dented.
(4)Gloria T.
Best pizza in NOLA! Thin crispy crust, really fresh ingredients. Loved it!
(5)Leslie C.
I have yet to have a SLICE that I do not like if "Slice's" pizza. No matter what toppings you get, you will love what you get. Service is good and atmosphere is fun! Good to get pizza to-go or for a sit-down dinner which I love! I can't wait to try this for game days!
(5)Meredith A.
One of the last places I dined at while visiting New Orleans. I love thin crust pizza so I thought I would try this place out. I found that the pizza was very good. I wasn't that hungry so I was excited I could just get one slice. The best part about this place is that listed on the drink menu was mimosas. Most places only list these for breakfast or brunch and I like to drink these at all times. Usually I have to be that weirdo asking about mimosas at dinner time(Don't judge me. I like frou-frou drinks). But here I knew I would be able to get my mimosa with my pizza without hassle. So I was able to enjoy two of my favorite things that usually aren't together in one place. This is like a nicer pizza restaurant. It has really good food and am able to get just a slice which is great for me.
(4)Burnell B.
My fav pizza spot. You can taste how fresh all the ingredients are on the pie. The barbecue shrimp po boy is a killer too.
(4)Beandrea T.
I ordered enough food for 3 people, but I figured I'm only in town for a few days and I wanted to try the best of what NOLA Cuisine has to offer. I had white pizza with basil and smoked bacon, a mussels appetizer, a bowl of gumbo, and a greek salad. All was delicious, and made me wish my stomach was bigger! Seemed to be popular with younger/university student crowd, but wasn't lacking in ambiance or cleanliness. My waitress was super friendly and helpful. Tip: come for a late lunch/early dinner and profit from their fab happy hour specials.
(5)peter s.
Just back form Slice and we are not sure if Yelp reviews take price into consideration or not but, while it was not expensive (indeed beers were very reasonable and their 1/2 price bloody mary sunday was a bargain), nothing was outstanding. All was perfectly adequate. (Oh except the Bruschetta which stone cold on cold white bread slices was so bad that I dumped the mushroom bits into my Shrimp Stew -- which seemed heavy on tomatoes and light on shrimp -- to warm them up and give them purpose.) We concluded we would have done better at the Blind Pelican pub across the street.
(2)Valencia M.
Went there with some friends not too long ago, and I enjoyed it a lot. The pizzas are huge, yes, but they are also delicious. I can't deny that at all. I loved every bite that I was able to finish and the rest went home with me. Then the next day it was darn good too. I'm actually wanting to go back now since this review has it on my mind. Huh! Okay time to make plans to go there again. Lol Well like I said, "I enjoyed it a lot."
(4)Katherine M.
Slice used to be one of my favorite quick meals in NOLA, but I've found that the quality of pies has been a bit inconsistent. Slice's pies now seem to all have a very thick, chewy crust that's a far cry from the thinner-crusted pies they used to churn out on a regular basis. Overdoing the cheese and undercooking pizzas also seems to be an issue, further complicated when you've added toppings. I've found that individual slices are often an acceptable remedy, as they seem more thoroughly cooked and less heavy on the cheese. You can also order your pie on the side of well done, and they'll be happy to accommodate your request. That all being said, Slice's sauce is among my favorites, and they'll usually offer you some on the side if you're a tomato fanatic like I am. The specialty pizzas offer great and slightly unexpected combinations of toppings that turn out to be better than imagined, especially the bacon, basil, and garlic pie. The mesclun is my favorite salad, with always-fresh berries, walnuts, and goat cheese, although the quality of the greens isn't always the greatest. I wish they still offered the balsamic vinaigrette with this salad, as now you're left to add your own combo of oil and vinegar. Lastly, Slice has wonderful happy hour specials, and it's a great place to gather with a medium-sized group after work.
(3)Brian D.
Slice does both standard and eccentric pizza offerings by the pie or slice. I had 2 slices: Andouille and shrimp, prosciutto Gorgonzola and arugula. Excellent, both. The Greek pizza was also calling. The daily special included a salmon with capers. Notes - Nobody working there was over 30, so it had a young, artistic, hip vibe. Really relaxed and fun to watch young artisans (the cooks) do pizza so well. - Wine menu included around 20 selections by the glass or bottle, which ran $24-$44/bottle. - Full bar with 3-5 selections of each spirits, ranging from well to super premium. - Service was excellent at 6pm on a Thursday, not terribly crowded, but constant flow of customers. - If you're a tourist, its right off of the St. Charles Street Car line next to VooDoo BBQ (also good). Perfect place for a light lunch. I would follow it up with a stop by Creole Creamery, a bit further up the St Charles line, off of Prytania in the UGD. - Hours 11 am to 11 pm
(5)Paula E.
I know this is going to seem unlikely but believe it or not, Slice is probably one of my favorite restaurants in New Orleans.... yeah, I know right... a pizza joint *rolls eyes* But there's something about this place that just does it for me. I love the decor, it's casual, modern and comfortable and they always showcase the work of really cool local artists (mostly photographers). The menu is varied (not like most of your pizza joints that only give typical calzone/pizza options) and I have to say one of my favorite dishes is the Mesclun Salad, IT'S OUT OF THIS WORLD!! A sweet the mixture of berries, with goat cheese and vinaigrette, absolutely blissful, tastes like seduction. The Slices are huge and super reasonably priced considering they use fresh ingredients. My favorite night is half-priced bottle of wine Tuesday nights, and they serve Famega! (a delightful green grape wine that goes really well with pizza) As if this weren't enough, if you are a hipster like myself you'll love all the eye candy that works here (boys and girls alike ;)
(5)Laura C.
I love slice. I love slice for their white pizza with basil. I love slice for their giant pieces at small prices. I love slice for their italian cream sodas. I love slice for being open lunch and dinner. Yep. This pizza is done with flavorful ingredients and the white pizza is the closest I can get to the way we always had it on visits to jersey. Hush... the white pizza and hoagies in jersey are fanastic (and let's not forget about water ice or the fact the italian ice is a completely different animal) even if the jersey shore crew makes me either want to murder them or blind myself in order to forget what a bad name they give the place.... Umm... anyway.... I've never been disapointed in the fare or with getting on of those wodden booths in the much quiter back room. Being up in the front is always an adventure too being that close to the open pizza staff always makes for a great dining experience. Go... enjoy yourself... relax... this is what real pizza done well is all about.
(5)Gregory R.
I adore Slice, and I go there every time I get the opportunity. It's nice to sit in the restaurant and watch all the people come and go. Service inside is very good. When you have a Slice craving but can't sit a spell, you can always pick up your order to go. Favorite pizza: Prosciutto Arugula Gorgonzola. The pastas are also very well cooked and delicious. I highly recommend the aglio olio pasta.

This is my go-to restaurant for anytime I want to eat out. I'm pretty sure my wife gets tired of me always suggesting we go. I never get sick of it and don't think I ever will. The pizza is delicious. $2 PBRs can't be beat. $5 Abita Amber pitchers during happy hour. Hip atmosphere. Everything about this place is great, especially the price. I take all of my friends who visit from out of town here. I'm pretty sure they're getting tired of it too. I don't understand how.

I'm pretty pumped that I'll get a free glass of wine with my next check in. I wish it were beer, but hey I'll give it away. Some of the gals and I like to gab here on Mondays and pretend like we are on Sex in the City. (I'm Charlotte.) We like it because the bill is usually pretty low and place is quiet enough to hear ourselves blab. They offer 1/2 price appetizers and beer and wine specials on Mondays until 6pm, so we pop in after work. Even with regular menu prices you can get a filling slice of pizza for around $4 and a salad with berries for around $3.50. An added bonus? The waitstaff is attentive, friendly, and kinda cute.

Been here twice so for with one of my kids. Loved it. Simple slices of pizza - delicious.

Found this place after looking at Yelp reviews and were not disappointed. We ate here while riding the St. Charles streetcar. This was our first stop before heading to the Garden District and the Audubon Park. I had a muffaletta and my boyfriend had a slice of the shrimp and andouille sausage pizza. The muffaletta was awesome and not overly huge or out of control in size. The pizza divine - tasty and unique with the special regional flavors. The service was great and they kept the ice tea coming - refills are key. The decor was comfortable and cool and the location was perfect. Would definitely go back.

My GO-TO pizza place in NOLA. You can't get pizza any better than this. It's impressive and the combinations of pizzas they have are excellent. The name of the establishment represents how they sell their pizzas, by the SLICE unlike most places. Upon entering you seat yourself and the open kitchen is great actually. There are tables in the front, booths in the middle and a bar in the back somewhat like a pub type atmosphere. The wait staff is always friendly and prompt. You can never leave here unhappy!
(5)Jack W.
Fantastic pizza!!! I have tried pizza from all over the USA and Slice is definitely on my top 10 list.

I was in New Orleans for business and didn't want to deal with the craziness of the French Quarter for dinner. After reading a few reviews, I picked Slice. Service was good and very friendly. I started with the mesclun salad with berries and goat cheese. It was excellent. I could have just eaten that. What I liked about Slice is that you could order individual slices -- and it's not just a heated piece of pizza with toppings thrown on top. I had the proscuitto/arugula and the fresh. Both was quite tasty. Would definitely return.
(4)Jazmin M.
This place was really, really good. Not as good as New York slice but still really awesome. We ordered the 18 inch Special pizza which was huge for only two people and a half serving of the lasagna. I usually hate lasagna that isn't homemade but I decided to take a risk and order this and I was completely satisfied with my decision. The ambiance, the food and the experience overall was really great. I'll definitely be back.

I was surprised when I first entered this establishment. The waitress reminded me of the spirit of the Austin Texas locals and the cook had HUGE hair that was carefully pulled back. The restrooms were very clean minus an accumulation of dust dirt on the window. The staff was attentive and the beverages were cold. My husband has has several slices of pizza at different times all he enjoyed. (Meatlovers, Bacon Basil and Garlic, and the Meat Lovers). I have had the pasta with white sauce and salmon. This was a very rich and tastey dish. However should I care to have it again I would ask for the sauce on the side. I have also tried the Wicked Garden calzone it is crusty and bursting with cheese. I wish the Magazine location would have the specials provided at St Charles location. Both locations were excellent! We will be frequent visitors of this establishment. Especially since there is an unobstructed view int the kitchen.
(4)Sunny Dawn S.
The pizza is fabulous. The shrimp/andouille is incredible. I've never had a bad food experience here, but the service to get to-go pizza around lunch time is ridiculous. I've waiting half an hour both times I've gone to pick up to-go. They seem unconcerned. I won't return for take out, but I'm sure I'll give in to the tempting pizza again in the near future.

Went there twice on a recent trip down to New Orleans. This place serves thin crust specialty pizzas as well as the classics, sandwiches, salads and pastas. I have tried both their veggie and their spinach, sun dried tomato, artichoke pizza and both were really good. The veggie pie had ample veggies that were all flavorful. The combination was good, but I thought the green olives were a little overpowering (even more so than the kalamata olives). I thought the spinach, sun dried tomato and artichoke pie was better, with a good amount of ingredients that didn't really overpower one another. Both were on thin crusts and neither pie was greasy. I'm sad I never got to try any of their desserts as their tiramisu and bread pudding looked promising. I believe my favorite part of the whole experience was walking into the bathroom and finding a painting on the wall of Van Gogh's Starry Night with pizza pies in place of the bright round stars. I got to speak to the worker who had painted it, and he said he was working on a Salvador Dali one in the men's restroom! If it had been finished at the time, I would have sneaked into the men's bathroom to snap a pic...of the painting. Best bathroom surprise EVER. So check this place out for the pizza, the beer, and definitely for the restrooms!
(4)Marcy A.
As good as it gets! Pizza is made to order and fantastic. I had a spinach salad with salmon and it was the bomb! Fresh crisp greens, Prosciutto bacon, Gorgonzola, Pecans, with a sweet succulent salmon, and a perfectly balanced Balsamic Vinaigrette. We had dessert also and that was in my top 5. A made on the premises, Tiramisu that had the most beautiful sweet cream top, and was flavorful all the way to the bottom of the very large cup it was served in. Cocktails were large and hardy. The price was affordable. Our waiter was personable and informative. Thank you Walker, for a very nice time. To quote Walker," We are serious about food here." Indeed they are. A really BIG thumbs up for "Slice", on St. Charles.
(5)Kristin B.
I have lived many places, and one thing is for sure - NOLA doesn't really "do" pizza. However, given that Slice is some of the best pizza that I have ever eaten in my life, I feel that NOLA should rethink this immediately. Slice is my favorite spot in NOLA. I am there a few times a month, and I don't even like pizza all that much. I am literally addicted to the blue cheese, proscuitto, and arugula pizza, although the greek with anchovies runs a close second. You know though, scratch that - EVERY kind of pizza that I have ever had there was spot-on. Their salads are delicious (the ceasar dressing is superb) and they have a ton of great beers. I've come to love Slice pizza more than po'boys, and that is a hard battle to win, people.
(5)Anthony C.
Growing up in New Jersey, I have fond memories of getting slices of pizza for a dollars from the local pizzeria. Slice is the closing thing I've had to the real thing since I moved to the South. While I usually order a plain slice, I've heard all their more exotic slices are just as delicious. I highly recommend Slice (on St. Charles, I had a bad experience with the Magazine one) to any and everyone who loves great food at a low price.
(4)Sam C.
I LOVE SLICE. The thin crust is not too crispy, but the crusty crust outside is so great. They use super high quality ingredients, and it's so delicious! Try the prosciutto arugula slice, or the meaty one, or the shrimp and andouille sausage one... Even was extremely surprised at how good the appetizers are (BBQ shrimp crostinis, the BMT salads). Low priced and a fun place.
(5)Adam S.
There was nothing wrong with this place. I think it was a nice place to grab lunch on Sunday afternoon. Got the cheese bread which was pretty good. I thought the red dipping sauce had a nice flavor to it. Got 3 slices: pepperoni, pepperoni and minced garlic, and pepperoni and carmelized onion. I liked them all. My least favorite was the onion slice because the onions were more soggy than carmelized. Tasted pretty good though. The garlic slice was probably my favorite, but was pretty sparce on the garlic. I would've liked more garlic. The crust is thin with some crunch (I think it has cornmeal in it or something). I also tried a bite of the white slice and the pruscuitto and argula slice. Both were pretty good, but again, not jaw droppingly good or anything. My guess is that this is probably some of the better pizza in town.
(3)Dawn D.
Good pizza, but not as amazing as other reviewers say. I really liked the fact that you can order any pizza by the slice, with any combination of toppings and sauce, so for that reason I recommend!
(4)Marty M.
Awesome! I'd definitely recommend this to anyone who likes fresh ingredients and great pizza.
(5)Lindsay H.
Slice has great, heaping, dripping, melty slices of cheesy goodness, topped with whatever your little heart can conjure up. For a gal who doesn't normally eat her crust, there is never a crumb left here on my plate. They also have a wide variety of veggie-friendly options and a great beer/wine list.
(5)Kim M.
Good salad, generously topped pizza (ok tasting) and friendly service.
(3)Guy S.
The service and ambiance was great, the menu options were also very good, but when the pizza came out the dough was soggy. The toppings, sauce etc were all very fresh and presented well. Just goes to show that with a soggy crust, its not all that great.
(3)Joshua B.
As someone from Chicago, I would consider myself a pizza snob. I usually eat deep-dish pizza but the thin crust pizza here is amazing. The types of pizza they have could be comparable to Cali Pizza Kitchen but SLICE is way, Way, WAY better. The fact that I could try their different pizzas in slice-form was an added bonus. The staff were nice and friendly as well. I had two tastey and filling slices for less than $10! I will be back.
(5)Anthony H.
I'm from Nevada/California so the South is new for me. The vibe of this place is off the hook. The chef's are bumping tunes and dancing while they cook. Our waiter was super helpful and knowledgable about the beer and the food. Just a good dude. He recommended the BBQ Shrimp app Boy and it was PHENOMENAL. One of the best meals I've ever had. If you come here GET THE PO BOY!!!
(5)Meredith H.
How could you take the meatballs off the menu?! I heard 5 people ask and complain about it. BEFORE ME! I only started coming here. I had them 2 times and they are gone!!! WHY?! WHY?! WHY?! WHY?! PLEASE BRING BACK THE MEATBALLS OR WE'LL STOP COMiNG!!!!!! So sad about this... You ruined my Tuesday :(
(2)Benjamin G.
I ordered the Margherita from Slice on a Sunday afternoon. The delivery time was great, it only took about 30 minutes which I was shocked about. The price I felt was a little high but I'm not complaining because it seems like what most pizzerias are getting to now. I could tell that the pizza was hot before I even opened the box, which is always a plus. The issue came when I opened the box to dive in. The cheese had all melted back together so the slices were very hard to pull apart, ended up having to recut them. Then the pizza was just very flimsy. You could not pick up a slice and just eat it at all. The crust was very thin and soaked all the way through. The flavor was good but overall I wasn't very satisfied with the pizza, may try again eating in their restaurant.
(3)Joel M.
Had this location bookmarked and figured since had the kids with me in NOLA we'd give it a try... kids love pizza... Found it easy on St. Charles, parking was a breeze, found street parking right in front of St. Charles Tavern... when we walked in about 6ish on a Saturday just a couple of people at the bar but we were the only diners.. Lotta pizza for the price.... me and the boy split a medium Meat Lovers and it was plenty for a 16 year old boy with me, the Dad, not having to worry if he was gonna plow through the whole thing.... the baby girl wanted to try white pizza and I was happy that any pizza was offered by the slice... she went with a white slice with bacon and fresh basil and really loved it... However, in my humble opinion, the kids really loved the Garlic Bread with Red Gravy appetizer...I was lucky to get one piece of that garlic bread! Our waitress, didn't get her name but she has 2 6-shooters tattooed on her upper chest, was excellent, friendly and timely... plus the Leinenkugel Summer Shandy they were offering on tap hit the spot! All in all one helluva enjoyable stop and meal and brought it in for a damn reasonable price!
(5)Wendy R.
Slices after a late night in the warehouse district- I was sooo excited to see this place and my food. I especially like that you can order all of their specialty pizzas by the slice. Even finished off my meal with a chocolate cookie- because ya'know sometimes you need a cookie. Best.Cookie.Ever!
(5)Keandra R.
I frequent here quite often...possibly two to three times a month. And I love it. The staff is uber friendly and welcoming...and the location is great. The front of the restaurant is kinda setup like a "shotgun" New Orleans style house, but the back has more seating for larger groups. Whether ordering at the bar, getting take out, or having a quick sit down lunch I'm usually pretty pleased. The food....now I can't lie...I usually never venture from a slice and half salad, but it fills you up and for exactly $10.70 you can't be mad. The D'Luxe, Veggie, and Sportsman slices are my fave. The less than 5 star rating comes in for the hit or miss on the salads. The Mescluin salad (petite greens and seasonal fruit) was exceptionally WARM today. It appeared that nothing was refrigerated...not the greens, not the lettuce, not the dressing...NOTHING! And on another occasion I've had a greek salad, while cold, the lettuce was a lime green color. Not green like lettuce should be...so I'm sure I ate a salad that had no nutritional value. Even with those hiccups, its still one of my favorite go to places for a slice. I'll have to venture and try the mussels and the BBQ shrimp po-boy that I see others raving about.
(4)Bob N.
If Iron Maiden is on when you walk through the door you are going really mess up the food to not get five stars from this guy. In all serious Slice is a great place is New Orleans for a slice in a town that typically sells whole pies. Chow down on the broccoli & mushroom while Bruce Dickinson belts out can I play with madness and other metal hits. Local beers, from NOLA brewing and Abita as well as PBR and the like! Enjoy!
(5)Tiffany C.
While visiting NOLA I went here three times. It was that good, and this is from a Chicago gal who loves her pizza. Service is excellent. Super cute hipster vibe inside. Nice to sit at the bar or really nice to just take it and go. Everything is served within about 15minutes after you order and is fresh with the best ingredients. I had the veggie pizza, their mushroom pizza, their broccoli pizza, their spinach and goat cheese calzone, their meat lovers pizza. All were fantastic. The best of the bunch in my opinion was the all veggie. JUST DO IT AND EAT HERE!
(5)Adam S.
Very good pizza, served whole or by the slice, with a colorful decor and unique music mix. Fun spot in the Garden District.
(5)Greg H.
We enjoy Slice, it's a neighborhood standby for Pizza. Very disappointed with the recent change to the menu. It was nice to come in and get a pasta bowl, I guess we'll have to find another spot for pasta. Ohhh well... :(
(2)Joe Bert O.
WOW! This meal was awesome. Our waitress, Jessika, was friendly, helpful, i ordered the calzone, which was delightfully made with a white sauce and delicious toppings I chose. it came with steaming-hot (homemade) dipping sauce. My partner had a meat lovers pizza, which (due to the nature of the toppings) was a little salty but tasty but a little soggy-a result of the toppings and sauce. I loved every minute of my experience and look forward to my next visit.
(4)Cyn B.
Love Slice but sadly I discovered there's no more Happy Hour. What?! Please bring it back!! And extend the time to 6 for all us stuck behind a desk till 5.
(5)Desiree T.
Honestly the best vegan pizza around and only $20 for a large (that is really a large). The crust is so delicious. The sauce is great! I drive from Luling to get this pizza! The servers are always accommodating and helpful with the menu items.
(5)Alyssa J.
Underwhelmed. Underwhelmed to the point of annoyance. I sat at the bar. I asked, "what kind of pizza do you folks have here?" I always ask this because I LOVE PIZZA. I explained that I am a transplant...I'm used to New York and Boston pizza. Normally that is a conversation starter in and of itself....this bartender is getting married guys. She does not have time to talk about pizza! The response should have been an indication for me to walk away. "uhmm it's pizza. so, you know. it's pizza.Plus I'm getting married so I want to talk about getting married." She didn't say the last part.... Once I asked her to go into a bit more detail ....thin crust? greasy? deep dish? she began reading the ingredients to me. Then the bartender, who is getting married, took my drink order. When I told her that I would just be having a club soda at the moment, I learned that Andrew wasn't drinking for Lent. He might be drinking on St. Patrick's Day. Do I think that counts as not drinking???? The more right I write the more annoyed I am getting. The first slice I got was good. I liked the texture, the cheese...I thought they were a bit stingy on the marinara. I noticed to my chagrin when I placed my order at 5:02 that they had a 2/1 Happy Hour Special. I ordered another piece anyway. This one came out like a weathered shingle. It was burned. I could actually crack the pizza in half. Breakable pizza is sooo 2012. Anyway, I mentioned that the slice was "well done" and she sent it back. The new slice came out.....raw basically. I ate it. She didn't check on me again, so I guess it didn't matter what I felt about the second slice anyway. I will go try another location I guess, but I would not recommend this place, based on the service alone.
(2)Audrey L.
Good pizza, good calzones, good ice coffee and pretty location. Server/bartender was hanging out with friends/staff and as personable as she could be I guess. Good first visit. Used a groupon.
(5)Kristin P.
We went to Slice twice during our honeymoon because it was really good pizza and it was very close to the B&B we stayed in. We had the same waitress both times and she was very pleasant and efficient. You really get to customize your pizza and even if you only want a few slices, they'll still make it how you want it. The first time I got two slices of a pesto based pizza with caramelized onions, goat cheese and salmon. Mouth wateringly delicious. The next time my husband and I split a pie and unfortunately the waitress told the kitchen a red sauce base when we asked for a white sauce, but we didn't want to waste it so we ate it any way. Still very good. Great little pizza place with a friendly staff and they are also open really late which is nice.
(4)Chris F.
You wouldn't think it, but this pizzeria has the best BBQ shrimp po boy I've ever had. It is plenty rich, but they use quite a bit of Worcester sauce to help cut through all that richness. The shrimp are huge too. I dropped one on the floor and cried. There are a ton on the sandwich, but that didn't make losing one hurt any less. The Pizza is great too, an especially wonderful option during Parade Season. . I'm never really blown away by the food options on St Charles, but this place is a great exception to that. And that BBQ Shrimp PO-boy!
(4)Marcela M.
The pizza was greaaaaat!! It's a great spot to chill & eat on you're day off from work lol I didn't have the pasta but the person behind me did & it looked great. They seemed to enjoy it. I'm excited to go back & try it out.
(5)Jim M.
A rarity in my food travels- 5 stars! I have never heard these words from my wife, "don't know how anyone can make an Italian salad taste this good but they have done it!" The pizza was really awesome. A medium pie left my seventeen year old and I full, walking out with two pieces unconsumed. The service was awesome, patient, and friendly. Plus one star for the incredibly attentive and friendly waitress. Heck, they might think about changing New Orleans slogan to the Big Slice because of this place.
(5)Peter B.
Great pizza!! Had the Hawaiian pizza--delicious! Arugula salad very tasty. And Bloody Mary's---yummy!!!!!!! Would return.
(4)Tonya T.
Found our way to SLICE on St. Charles! Great food and staff!!! We really enjoyed it!!! Waiter was helpful and staff was helpful getting us back to how to reach our car via bus!!
(5)Charles H.
BRUISER OF A BBQ SHRIMP PO'BOY: yes, "Angie T", thank you for the heads up this really is one of the best shrimp po'boys I've ever had; rivaling "Milk Bar" & "Parkway" for best in city. "UPTOWN COOL": compared to sterile "Pizza Delicious", the staff at Slice are personable and chatty. PRICE VALUE: sautéed Po'boy (not battered & deep fried), easily splittable, just $12. MY ONLY COMPLAINT: the generously topped pizzas' thin crust is not crispy. I think it absorbs the moisture of the sauce and ingredients. Regardless go for the po'boy!
(4)Cubb C.
Update. I have been back 3 times in the last 8 months and its been horrible each time. I dont know whats going on. Looks like they have cut back on quality. And whoever is cooking the pizzas just dont give a damn. The last two times my pizza crust was soggy. I mean saturated, you could squeeze the water out of it literally. I THINK they are putting frozen toppings on and in the cooking process it melts causing the crust to become ...well, just unpleasant. Someone told me that they sent their best workers to the Magazine street location. Probably true since everyone inside now looks really out of it. Im done with this location.
(1)Katie K.
This seems to be the Uptown go-to for pizza, but I've never really understood what the fuss is about. I tried Slice for the first time years ago, dining in at their St. Charles location. I remember being underwhelmed, but not dissatisfied. After seeing a forum on Facebook about the best place for pizza in New Orleans, and seeing all of the Slice voters, I decided to give it another try to change my opinion. Margherita has always been my favorite pizza, so I tried theirs. It's a four cheese take on the margherita. Nope. Entirely too much cheese for what is supposed to be an understated pizza that relies on simple, quality toppings. The crust in the middle of the pizza was soggy from the massive amount of greasy cheese sitting on top of it. I couldn't even taste the basil, which for me, has always been the best part of a good margherita. I had to wonder if it was fresh basil. Sauce and crust were otherwise not notable. Pizza is pizza. You're never really going to be mad at it. But I will continue to wonder what the fuss is about when it comes to Slice.
(3)Chrissy P.
Great pizzeria! Seemed to be full of locals, which is always a plus. My husband had the meat lovers calzone. Loved it so much, he had it two nights in a row! First time, I tried the penne pasta dish, which was ok, and next time I tried the cheese calzone. My calzone broke while in the oven, so they brought me a piece of cheese pizza to hold me over. Pizza was good, but the calzone was better! Definitely recommend!
(4)Kacie E.
I ordered delivery (charge pending on credit card), was told 60 minutes, food never showed. Phone has been busy for 45 minutes. It's been 2 hours and 15 minutes since I ordered!!! Really upset as food reviews were good
(1)Jamie R.
I'd rather get Domino's.
(1)Dwayne D.
I'm a New Yorker, and this is the best pizza I have had in New Orleans. Hands Down!! Caprese is fresh, light and delicious! Coming every week! Thank you for the food and the great energy from the staff!!
(5)Jackson K.
ALways good pizza! Lots of good options for toppings. Similar to NYC style, but not 100%. New Orleans is definitely not known for Pizza, but slice does good pizza for any area of the country
(5)Jerrel T.
The Pizza here is ok. I felt like I was eating a premium version of Dominos Pizza. The reason I gave the place 4 stars is because it makes for a great bar as well as customer service and location is great.
(3)Erin M.
Went with co workers for lunch. Split the whole Greek salad. So fresh and delicious. Got he 1 veggie slice. Amazing and so affordable. Can't wait to go back!
(4)May W.
Ugh! That's what I get for not reading Yelp before going to a restaurant. Came here tonight to dine for LASPCA's Pause 4 Paws. Overall not a great experience. Parking- it's on St. Charles with no reserved parking lot like other restaurants around. I parked around the block. No biggie since I could always use the exercise. But I didn't like the two homeless people parked outside that were literally following people when they left. I know it's not their fault, but it's a huge creep factor. They could have stopped the solicitors from sitting outside their establishment then stalking their patrons that happen to carry big purses (empty of cash, btw.) This will definitely prevent any women (or self-preserving men) from eating here. I don't like looking behind me the entire time I'm walking to my car, which was around the block from the place. As soon as I rounded the corner, I just RAN to my car. Food- Ordered the large mesclun salad: mixed greens, fresh goat cheese, crushed pecans, fresh strawberries and blueberries served with a homemade balsamic vinaigrette. It was a yummy salad but definitely wasn't a large portion. I've seen small salads bigger than that (i.e. Midway, Theo's, Katie's-just to name a few) Priced at $9, I was honestly hoping it would fill me up. Not even close. Drinks- ordered the special of the night. Name escapes me but it was basically two shots of bourbon served anyway you like. I'm a simple girl so I opted for a bourbon and coke. Bartender was nice, and the drink was pretty stiff. Didn't need another one the entire meal. For $5, thought it was a steal- especially when it was Maker's Mark. Service- horrendous. Server was quite rude with us from the moment we sat down. We went there for a meeting and was expecting 4-5 people. Half of the party showed up first and we were seated for about 10-15 mins. before more arrived. Not once did he ask to refill our drinks (we had all ordered our drinks from the bar but there was an empty beer glass that could have been refilled with some refreshing deliciousness) nor did he ask if we wanted any appetizers. When the final person got there, he immediately asked if we were ready to order. She hadn't even sat down at that point. So we asked for 5 mins. which he huffed then stomped away. When we were done with our food, he asked if we were ready for the bill. No questions of dessert or salad. And even though our party only ended up being 4 people, he still added a gratuity on there! We were all quite surprised since restaurants don't usually add a grat for parties smaller than 6. Not sure why he felt a need to express his frustrations on his tables. So this experience definitely soured this location for me. From here on, think I'm going to stick to the Magazine location. And just get their pizza or that BBQ shrimp po-boy everyone is raving about.
(2)John L. H.
My review of this Slice will be remarkably similar to my review of the Magazine location. Why? Because despite several trips here, I cannot get enough of their BBQ shrimp po boy. This location seems smaller than the Magazine location. There are booths along the wall and three tables up toward the front. The tables in the front are somewhat close together so if the restaurant is full you should expect to hear your neighboring tables conversations. Service was very good. Our server was friendly, had a sense of humor and was very prompt. As far as service goes, it was better at this location. Parking is still an issue, but it is at most uptown restaurants. I actually parked in the Houston's lot even though several signs warned me not to. I don't suggest you do that in case you get towed, I don't want the blame. The real reason you should visit is the BBQ shrimp po boy. Trust me on this. It is so good that you will try and find a way to soak up all of the excess sauce. I used a form and knife to cut my bread at the end, flipped it over and sopped it all up. Use my method, or devise your own, but you will want this sauce. On this visit one of the group ordered a pizza. It looked and smelled amazing. One of these days I will have to actually try the pizza. Until then I will keep enjoying that po boy.

Came here twice for lunch during my 15 day boondoggle in NOLA. 11:45 on a weekday it was half packed and was able to get in and out in 45 minutes. $12 for a slice, a small salad, water and tip! Italian salad was hearty with lots of ingredients. A little salty (lots of olives) for my California taste buds but good enough that I ordered it both times. Between the meat lovers slice and the special slice w shrimp, I would rank the special higher. Toppings were fresh and the thin crust was slightly crunchy just like it should be. The decor is an after thought and the feel is old, but I came here for the food. Interesting tho ... I didn't know that pizza grew on trees as the wall paper in the bathroom suggest!!! I better read Wikipedia more often! 4 stars for the food quality. 3 stars for the service. 2 stars for atmosphere. Would come here again but wouldn't go too much out of my way.
(3)Jack-Daniyel S.
We split a half salad and a medium Siciliana Marinara pizza and it was too much food. The pizza was cooked to perfection with a nice chew to the crust... not to mention to abundance of great fresh peppery arugula that topped the pizza. Service was quick and attentive. Decent selection on tap, as well.
(4)Brent C.
Skip the high priced tourist traps on Bourbon Street and come here instead for delicious, local pizza. The atmosphere is casual but clean, and the pizza has never disappointed us. We come to New Orleans at least once each year, and Slice is always on our short list of restaurants where we have to eat.
(5)Niki M.
After being on the road for 4 hours, the BF and I we were in the mood for some good thin crust pizza. I love Slice and hadn't been in ages, and he had never been, so away we went. The atmosphere at Slice is a little off being that it's a really long and narrow space. That aspect doesn't bother me, it just feels...odd. The service at Slice is always friendly and attentive. No complaints. I really love the pizza at Slice! I LOVE LOVE LOVE how many choices you have that you can order by the slice. We got the standard Pepperoni, the BBG which was a white pizza with smoked bacon, fresh basil, roasted and fresh garlic, the PGA which was procuitto di parma, imported gorgonzola, organic arugula, and the specialty Mac n' Cheese pizza, which had pasta and a ton of bacon and cheese on it. I wasn't sure how that would work for a pizza, but the server said it was amazing. He was right. My boyfriend wasn't a huge fan of the PGA, but he loved the BBG. I thought they were all yummalicious. The prices are extremely reasonable. We got two slices of pizza each, we shared an Italian salad, I had 2 mimosas, and my BF had 2 beers, and our bill was $31! Can I say again how much I love Slice? If I had one complain, the only one would be that I would've liked my pizza to be hotter. I like my food to be insanely hot. Tip: Mimosas are $3.50 all day on Sundays!

A great dive pizzeria. Twice I got the Sportsman, once as a slice and again as a calzone. This was easily the best slice of pizza I can remember. The garlic bread is also amazing. The staff is very friendly and the atmosphere is rough and kind of hipster-y, but in a good way. This is the type of pizza joint you want to visit. It's also right next door to The Streetcar Inn, so definitely hit it up if you're staying there.

It's a shame that this place has such mixed reviews. Thankfully I had a great experience. This was our part 1 of 2 for lunch, and we made it apparent to our waitress, and she didn't mind at all. Most other servers look so disappointed to find that we would each only order 1 slice, but she was nice enough to even offer to have each of our slices cut in half so that sharing was easier. We had the PGA and Sportsman's Paradise. I preferred the PGA, as the shrimp on the Sportsman's Paradise seemed to be slightly overcooked to me. I did enjoy the crunch and flavor of the crust. The toppings overall worked well together. If only I lived much closer to this place...I would go at least once a week to take advantage of the fact that they offer their specialty pizzas by the slice!

It seems rumours of Slice's decline are true. I was informed by the stoned-sounding person who answered the phone that delivery would be 1 hour, and then that their delivery minimum has increased to $15. I was going to get the spaghetti and meatballs out of sheer laziness, as I have before; their pizza has become increasingly flavorless. Oh, well, there's now Dolce Vita!
(3)Cody H.
Love it. They had a macaroni and bacon pizza my son loved. The food was good and fresh. It was nice to sit outside and enjoy our food while people watching. We will go back

This location of Slice Pizzeria is smaller than the one on Magazine Street. It feels pretty crowded and the tables are too close to one another. I don't like that neighboring diners can hear my conversation. However, Slice Pizzeria makes the best BBQ shrimp poboy that I've ever had so I jumped at the chance to have lunch with a few fellow Yelpers here and I'd jump at the chance to do it again. Of course, I ordered the BBQ shrimp poboy and savored every single bite of it. It's really the very best poboy I've ever had of its kind. I also ordered a salad on this visit. Mesclun Salad with balsamic vinergrette...petite greens, goat cheese, pecans, fresh berries. It was delicious as well. I love Slice and honestly if the restaurant was in a cardboard box, I'd still go for that BBQ shrimp poboy. My preferred location is the one on Magazine, though. If you haven't tried that poboy, do yourself a favor and order one. You're welcome.

Our second time here this week while visiting NOLA. Very close to our hotel so made it easy. But if not it would still be worth it. Large pizza was great for family of four. We are pizza snobs and it didn't disappoint. My daughters had to have the Brookie a la mode and it was very tasty. The staff has been super friendly. A great spot.
(5)Melissa H.
This is such a perfect pizza dive. The pies are spectacular, with high quality toppings and the magic balance of crispy/chewy in their signature crust. As the name suggests, you can buy by the slice. But whole pies are tempting options as well. The creative craft cocktail menu deserves your attention. Standard and special concoctions turn out consistently delicious, visit after visit.
(5)Juan H.
I was expecting some seriously great tasting pizza but was a little disappointed. I'm in the Bay Area, so fresh Amici pizza is the bomb, and I thought Slice would be similar. It was not. We had it delivered, so maybe that was part of it. By the time we got it, from down the street and an hour later, it wasn't hot and the thin crust wasn't very crisp. We asked for extra cheese, but if there was extra cheese, it would have had none without paying for the extra! All in all I cannot recommend it, but I think maybe if you walk in, you might have a better experience.

Friends and acquaintances, I would like to express my outrage. Most of you know me enough to understand that it takes a lot to truly piss me off. Also i have traveled and dined in restaurants in 3/4 of this country. So when I say that I received the absolutely worst service of my life, you know that i am being serious. Now that we got that disclaimer out of the way and you are still reading this.... here is the story. We came into Slices Pizza at 9:30 pm on a Saturday night in New Orleans, we all had about 3 double margaritas and were tipsy. We sat down at a booth and proceed to have a conversation about graphite as an art form. We were loud and there were quite a few fucks and shits thrown into the conversation. Next to us was a family having dinner, the kids at the table were heard to swear like dock workers by one of the members of our group in the bathroom. After we ordered food we were asked to keep the cussing to a low, while a song called big pimping was playing in the background. For those who do not know the song here are some of the lyrics. "You know I - thug em, fuck em, love em, leave em Cause I don't fuckin need em Take em out the hood, keep em lookin good But I don't fuckin feed em First time they fuss I'm breezin Talkin bout, "What's the reasons?" I'm a pimp in every sense of the word, bitch Better trust than believe em In the cut where I keep em til I need a nut, til I need to beat the guts Then it's, beep beep and I'm pickin em up Let em play with the dick in the truck Many chicks wanna put Jigga fist in cuffs Divorce him and split his bucks" Never mind the hypocrisy involved in that request, we toned it down. Our food was delivered to us with polite smile and a fuck you, which is fine. As the common saying at my work goes "fuck em if they can't take a joke". This is where I got pissed off enough to walk out and not pay, which I did not do. We received no silverware, I had to finally walk to the server stand and grab silverware and napkins so we could enjoy our meal. The only time the server walked up to us was when i was extremely vocal about not tipping and walking out on the bill because we received almost no service. The server approached we with an extremely rude "did you want something". And my only regret is being caught of guard by this and saying "no we are fine". At this point I put cash down for my meal and walked the fuck out, because I was too pissed off to do anything else. So thanks you Slices Pizzeria for being the only low point in my otherwise amazing NOLA experience. Please comment on this because I would like to know if I was in the wrong here. And if you are ever in New Orleans please stay away from Slices Pizzeria because this town is full of amazing restaurants with fantastic service and the risk of ruining your experience is not worth the good food they serve.

The first thing I've got to say about the crew at Slice is that at 10:59 pm on a weekday they still took care of me and made a handcrafted pie! None of that "sorry but the kitchen is closed" BS; they were open and took care of me. Thank you, Slice! Now for the pizza... I had a pepperoni and black olive finished with some Parmesan and crushed red pepper. It was delightful! The crust was nice and toasty on the bottom with just a hint of crunch. Who in their right mind wants soggy crust?! I've had lots of good pizza, and some not so good (I don't subscribe to that whole any pizza is good pizza thing), but the pizza from Slice will hit your top 10 for sure, maybe even the #1 spot depending on your personal taste. Give it a shot!
(5)Cristy C.
This place is so much better than the one on Magazine Street - service wise. I can't tell you how many times I've been disappointed or been given "attitude" at their other location. Unfortunately, the Magazine location is just a few blocks away from my house and I purposefully make the trip to this location because I KNOW they won't disappoint. My favorite dishes here are the Aglio Oglio pasta and their cheese pizza. I've had a few different dishes, but I find myself ordering these same things over and over again.
(5)teeny t.
Very cute, delicious, cheap, AND they were playing awesome music! Couldn't ask for more. :-)
(5)Jackie F.
I ordered a pizza to go and it was DELISH! It was quick and ready to go when I picked it up. Def making this my pizza spot! Next time I'm dining in!!!!
(5)Shercole K.
Every chance I get to take someone here for lunch, I seem to make it happen now. This is my go-to lunch pizza place. Yummy fresh pizza for cheap! You literally get one slice and can be full from it. That just doesn't happen much. Plus if its a place my boyfriend will actually eat and have nothing bad to say about the place must be AWESOME. Best Time to go is in the week during the 11-1pm range for a great lunch. One slice will cost you pretty much 5 bucks different specialties.
(5)Erwin B.
Love it! Got the bacon, basil, and garlic slice and that topped my NOLA food trip. This place was pretty much my default restaurant while vacationing in New Orleans. Slice Pizzeria was very simple, fresh, and you are blasted with unforgettable pizza aromas, tasty brewed beers, and Southern hospitality. If i was there at this very moment i would purchase: Prosciutto, Gorgonzola, and Arguala; bacon, basil, and garlic; trucker calzone; and the creme brulee! NOTE: This place stayed open before hurricane Issac smacked St. Charles st. and that is a 5/5 in my books. Many stores/restaurants closed early or were understaffed.
(5)Nicole K.
This place was FANTASTIC!!! I started with a caesar salad and then had the BBG calzone with grilled chicken added. So so amazing!! I was so glad we came here on our last night of vacation.
(5)Ross D.
yuummmm
(5)Byron J.
Our first time here, sat outside on st. Charles avenue. Spaghetti and meatballs were delicious. But the PGA pizza was awesome... The arugulla added a surprising crunch and the bitterness balanced with the Gorgonzola.... U gotta try it
(4)Paul D.
A great little pizza spot. Out front they will have a few tables set up outside. Some tables inside, and booths that go along the back. The food comes out fast, but the table service for drink refills is a little slow. I got my app before I could get a second refill of ice tea. Though not a big deal. For an app, I had cheesy bread. Just garlic bread with mozzarella and marinara dipping sauce. Simple, but good. I had two slices of Prosciutto, Gorgonzola, and Arugula pizza. Again, really good and freshly made. They also have a small bar with a nice selection of beers. A place to look for if in the Garden District.
(4)Lilly T.
Ah, Slice Pizzeria :) Slice will probably always be one of my favorite pizza places in New Orleans. They use fresh ingredients, their pizza dough is the perfect middle ground- not too thick,not too thin, and their toppings list is expansive. Also, their bruschetta is freaking delicious!
(4)Grace T.
We went in as a group of 11. The price turned out really good like 80+ and we got to try many different flavors. Our favorite is the Hawaii one. The restaurant is also very cute and special. The waitresses are friendly and with a good service. Definitely recommend to go there if you are visiting New Orleans!
(4)Vincent L.
Amazing food and it's priced well. Service was great and the waiter was honest about how much was needed to fill you up. Half salad+slice or two slices
(5)Vanessa M.
Arrived in NOLA for my 40th and we were staying at the Avenue garden Hotel next door. 5 of us just flew in and were starving! We were supposed to go to Willie Maes for the fried chicken but there was a line wrapped around the building. So we decided to check this place out because it was convenient and it was worth it. One thing I like was you could get ANY type of pizza they had for a slice! Most places have limited selections when it comes to the per slice. The pizza was pretty freakin awesome! Ny Style like I love it and full of flavor! We were so impressed we managed to squeeze this place in a 2nd time. The second time we didnt have pizza. Garlic Bread was great. Mushroom Crostini was very good, Caprese Salad was decent.. The pasta was a heaping portion and filling but it was kind of bland. However, the item I was least thrilled with was the bread pudding.. it was definitely cake not bread pudding. The only reason I wasn't impressed is because I was expecting bread pudding. For NOLA I expect an overabuncance of flavor so for the pasta portion I was left a bit in the "meh" category but the pizza.. SPOT ON!
(4)Roxanne C.
This was my first time here, and I have to say I'm a fan. The food is good and affordable. I like that you can buy pizza by the slice. You can also either get a half of a pasta dish or a whole pasta dish, which I liked because I wasn't that hungry. I also thought the staff seemed friendly. Parking seemed to be an issue since you have to park on the street, but I was dropped off so it wasn't a problem for me. I will definitely come back here.
(4)Suzanne A.
I didn't try their pizza, but their calzone was just ok. I won't be going back for the calzone, but maybe for their pizza
(3)Shane F.
First time I've tried slice ill absolutely be coming back again. Kill pizza, killer meatballs full stomach can't go wrong
(5)Mark L.
Loved it. I typically prefer thicker crust but this crust is awesome. Great, low jet atmosphere and great friendly service. Gotta try it.
(4)Kelley M.
What I liked most about Slice, is as its name suggests, you can order pizza by the slice. At $3.75, the slices are pretty reasonably priced, allowing you to try a couple of different specialties. I had a slice of spinach, sun dried tomato, & artichoke and a slice of the special. While I thought the "base" of the pizza was perfect (think thin, New York style crust), the pizza was kind of flavorless despite all of the toppings. If I return, I think I'll simply go with a plain cheese slice and hopefully get to enjoy the pizza for what it really is. Why two stars down? As I've already mentioned, the pizza wasn't fantastic. I ordered a caesar salad as a starter and the lettuce was fairly brown and wilted. The boy asked what beer was on draught, ordered, and received a bottled beer. I ordered my slice without onions and peppers and it came with both. So, in short, the service could have been a bit better. I'll definitely go back to Slice for another try, but I won't be in a rush to return.
(3)Wendi R.
UNIQUE, FRESH, and LOCAL! We've been going to Slice since they opened many years ago. Their slices are huge, and the ingredients are really fresh! Let the staff know you aren't some snob and they are very friendly! I love getting penne pasta with pesto sauce and salmon (it is NO LONGER on the menu, but if you ask nicely - they will do it for ya!). 1/2 price mimosas on Sundays are a treat!!!! LOVE this place!
(5)Rand H.
Bad experience. 2 hours for delivery, cold pizza and didn't get the order correct. Called back, they didn't answer. Warmed pizza, not good at all. Don't understand the hype. Waste of money. Try Reginellis , better service and food.
(1)Sheng Y.
This is my favorite pizza joint in all of New Orleans. My friend doesn't like pizza, but once she had a slice of the Flying Hawaiian, she's been addicted ever since! I have had the Meat Lover's, Flying Hawaiian, Specialty D-Luxe (MY FAVE) and Sportsman's Paradise. Usually, I order a 14" half Flying Hawaiian and half Specialty D-Luxe. They're really good about half/half pizzas. Their delivery is fast and their pizza is always so juicy! I like that I'm not gnawing on too much bread because it's thin crust. I like the atmosphere of the place as well, the service is fast and friendly - reminds me of my favorite pizza place in MN: Pizza Luce.
(5)Colin A.
Cool space, good pizza with New Orleans flavor.
(3)Mrs. C.
I really love this place and look forward to returning to eat here with my family once I visit in a few weeks. This is the better location as far as I am concerned, just has a better vibe about it than the one on Magazine St, and I think its due to the lack of tourists that are in there. Has a more laid back feel and a lot less children crying or screaming, always a good thing. It's family friendly though. I love the art work and the staff. The pizza is always phenomenal and you really just can't go wrong with whatever you get. Definitely recommend them to all my friends and family.
(4)Treveontay M.
Simply awesome!!!! I would of gave 5 stars but the Sangria was bitter. (You know alcohol is a worth a whole star!) The food, the service, the wait time.... All of it, SIMPLY AWESOME! If u haven't tried this place you have been letting life pass you by! Did I forget to mention the prices were very affordable. My pregnant friend gave it 2 thumbs up! I will definitely be back with more friends! I wonder if they host events.... I'll find out and get back to you all! What more must I say for you to trust and believe that this place is SIMPLY AWESOME (in my slow motion voice!)?
(4)Mike P.
So when i visited NOLA last, my friend wanted me to try Slice and see how it compared to Pizza or NY/NJ. While i still prefer my home slice, Slice is able to stand up on its own. The Pizza here is really good. I was pretty impressed and there combinations of flavors were pretty awesome. I like that they serve Italian sodas, disappointed that they were out of mango, but every place I've every been to that has mango is always out of it when I order it, so I'm not to disappointed and this just adds to my argument that the elusive mango is just a farfetched fable to get people like me into their shops. Getting back from my tangent, slice has some awesome food and defiantly would be willing to come back again to try some more of their awesome food.
(4)Elizabeth C.
The pizza's pretty good, but we were disappointed the last time we came and found the bar was (physically) miniaturized. They still have drinks, but you can't sit at the bar anymore. The ingredients are fresh and tasty! It's not my favorite place, but I won't refuse to go here. Not sure about small kids or groups... It's loud enough that loud young kids you might avoid taking other places would go virtually unnoticed. The building is a bit narrow, so I can't really imagine how they fit groups in together... I wouldn't go with a group of more than four.
(3)Whitney J.
My go-to pizza spot in the city... I definitely prefer the St. Charles location over the one on Magazine because the staff (as well as the pizza) seem different for some reason. My suggestions on pies/slices: Fresh, Arugula/Prosciutto/Gorgonzola.... or a slice of cheese/onion.
(4)Chris R.
Since I've lived in NOLA, pretty much everyone I know said that the best pizza ever is at Slice. Our verdict? Not so much. Maybe all the friend hype raised my expectations. I liked the crust on the pie, but the Mrs. didn't. The sauce was too salty, and too spicy. I admit, I'm pretty hard on pizza, as I grew up on "real pizza" in the northeast. I also ordered a meatball appetizer, and my lady ordered the chocolate chip bread pudding. The meatballs were horrible, but the dessert was damn good. The service was excellent, which made up for some of the food's shortcomings, but I doubt we'll be back.
(3)Jacinta W.
This place is awesome with a capital A! The calzone was superb. Way to big to eat in one sitting for me. And the chocolate bread pudding was a great way to end the evening. You have y to check this place out for pizza when visiting NOLA.
(4)Eileen K.
My oh my, this place was soo delicious!! And definitely took me by suprise. I did NOT want to eat pizza in NOLA (Um...can i just try a billion different jambalays and gumbos please?) but, it was 1-2 blocks from our hotel (the Prytania), it was out 4th night, it was raining, and we were getting ready for our last night on Bourbon. So, it made sense to stay near the area. Imagine my suprise when we entered this classy yet comfortable (think brick walls, dim and moody lighting, with an intimate bar immediately greeting us upon entrance) pizzeria, with pizza slices in moderate prices ($3.75) and yummy smells? We got take out so we could eat in the comforts of our warm hotel room. Their pizza slices were huuge with tons of toppings gracing them...and incredibly flavorful. (would have expected nothing less from NOLA!) What we got: (ingredients straight from their website) -Shrimp & Andouille (Caramelized Onions, Yellow Corn, Diced Tomato, and Green Onion) Anything with caramelized onions..and you have my heart. Perfect balance of the greasiness of the cheese, sausage, and shrimp with the fresh veggies...delicious. -Greek (Artichoke Hearts, Imported Feta, Kalamata Olives, and Red Onions ~optional Anchovies) um...yum? -BBQ shrimp: a kind local (who claims he is there most nights for a beer and pizza since he lives a block away) recommended this dish to us. Upon opening it up when we got back to our hotel room, we were slightly disappointed. It looked like a slightly upgraded version of the po'boy we had eaten earlier. Buttered bread, a few pieces of cooked shrimp, fresh parsley, and a small container of liquid-y bbq sauce. HOWEVER, this sauce was to DIE for! It was incredibly different: not sweet and thick like most bbq sauces...brothy...but full of savory flavor with a kick at the end. (we ended up dipping our crusts into this sauce...yum) All in all, this was one of my best meals in NOLA. and what a suprise! Def recommend :)
(5)Shannon S.
This is the original location of Slice which has started to expand to other locations. This location is nearest to my house and the most convenient to me. If all your in the mood for is one slice of pizza this is probably the best place to get a highly customized slice to fit your hearts desire. The pizza here is ok to me and I like the availability of all the topping choices. I still rarely end up here as when I'm in the mood for pizza I usually go to Theo's, Pizza Delicious, or the $5 pint and a slice deal at New York Pizza. This is certainly a decent place for a slice but I always need more than one slice!
(3)Jamie S.
Not impressed. It took 1.5 hours to get our pizza delivered and when it finally came we were pretty disappointed. We ordered the flying Hawaiian. We basically were brought a bacon and jalepeno pizza. Little to no red sauce, barely any pineapple or chicken. Crust was bland and dry. Heard a lot of great things about Slice over the last couple years but after this experience we will not be back. So many better pizza options out there! That being said... You know what they say about bad pizza.
(1)Kristen A.
YUMMMM!!! I love that you can order by the "slice" and choose anyyyy toppings you want!! It's basically subway meets a pizza joint. I had a slice with artichoke, corn, spinach, peppers, and garlic! Super yum and fair prices, and you don't feel like puking after like Pizza Hut. WIN!
(5)Joi B.
Lots of pizza bang for your buck! I'm the sort who, when faced with all kinds of options, can never make up her mind as to what kind of pizza she wants. I want 'em all!!! The beauty of Slice is that they allow you three ordering options: by the slice, a small pie or a large pie. And you can have virtually *any* style of pizza you want from gourmet slices (Mushroom Explosion, spinach/artichoke/sundried tomatoes) to create-your-own. Last night I started with a perfect arugula salad (size "small" is plentiful) and then decided on one special slice (spinach/artichoke/tomato which comes on their white pie) and one red slice with kalamata olives and mushrooms. Let me just say that I'm going to be a diehard for their red pies. I generally prefer red pies anyway (I'm a saucy gal) and Slice's sauce is great! Taste/texture is similar to a corner pizza joint in NY, but of course a little bit different. I mean, the ingredients are extremely fresh and they are *not* shy with the basil (love). I was not as in love with the white slice because it was very dry, but still tasty nonetheless. Service is super sweet and speedy. Casual, but charming atmosphere (read: not fast food-like) Oh and get a load of those drink specials!!! Seems like there is something different and awesome every day from Sunday Mimosas to Saturday Bloody Marys. Weekday evening specials include 1/2 price bottles and cocktails.
(4)Moira R.
The two ladies at the table will have THE TRUCKER! The trucker? Oh yes, the trucker. A gigantic meat/ cheese stuffed calzone that can't be matched. Each bite is a delicious melody of pork goodness. Okay, so you're veg, that's cool too. They have an equally large, veg stuffed mate called the roasted garden. If you love garlic they have you covered. The last time I had this one I swear there must have been an entire head of garlic inside. I smelled like garlic for at least an entire day after I ate that thing. Ops The pizza of course is good as well. The crust is thin and the toppings are piled on. I haven't had a bad slice yet. The service is always speedy enough. The atmosphere is comfortable and modern, a step up from the every day pizza place. However, caution, don't leave your children unattended or, according to the sign above the bar, they will feed them espresso and give them a puppy. ;)
(5)Amanda W.
I love this location because it is three blocks from my house. Hell yeah! Went here with my parents today for a quick lunch. Pizza was delicious as usual, as was my mesclun salad (fruit+greens+vinaigrette+walnuts, yay!). Our waiter was fast and friendly'personable. They have great drink specials, with a full bar and a selection of beer and wine. My dad had the mac and cheese, and gobbled that up pretty fast, so it must have been good. Slice is the place I go to when I want a consistently good meal at a reasonable price with friendly service. I've never had a bad experience here. Try the pga, it's my favorite :)
(5)Matt R.
2 of us stopped by around 1:30 on Sunday afternoon. Staff was friendly and welcoming. I had the cheese calzone with chicken. Good size, nice crust, but the cheese in the middle was still cold, so 1 star lost for that. Definitely a good value for the price, and steps away from the St Charles Ave streetcar stop
(4)Mai W.
Chose this place for dinner since it's close to where I was staying. Ordered shrimp bisque-very tasty! Small salad (with goat cheese, strawberries, blueberries, pecan & balsamic dressing)-good and the BBQ shrimp appetizer-very good but a bit salty. Overall would go again to try the pizza.
(4)Alice H.
Attention parents, Slice may just be your salvation, too. If your kids are like mine and child A and child B are basically as compatible as Jack Sprat and his wife, waste money no more! Slice lets you order by the slice almost any kind of pizza you can think of. Gorgonzola and arugula for you, perhaps, while the kids eat toppings that don't involve compromise or negotiation. Add to this a full bar with drink specials, and you might just leave feeling relaxed and happy. After eating at a restaurant. With your kids. Crazy, right? The pizza is quite yummy, and the list of toppings is impressive by our admittedly compromised pizza standards in this city. When we were there last Friday, sangria was on special, so my friend and I got a red and a white. We both agreed that the white was slightly tastier but that the red was a strong contender. For dessert we tried the chocolate pear and the dreamsicle popsicles. Yum, and plenty of real fruit for a lower guilt:indulgence ratio than most desserts. The only drawback to the place is the hassle of trying to negotiate a parking spot around here at dinner time. But with just that minor annoyance, I'll definitely be back.
(4)Kate S.
After looking for a good restaurant literally ALL over new orleans we stumbled on this place after taking the streetcar down into the Garden District. It was really good. They had an awesomely refreshing drink called the Riverboat Captain and their pizza was pretty good. I liked the PGA a lot. I definitely recommend making a trip out here for this.
(4)Elaine M.
This is by far my second most favoritest pizza place in town! Not really so much for the pizza but the service, the prices, and the presentation of the food are all top. Not to mention, the last table we sat at had a great picture of local musician Clint Maedgen behind it, whom I adore. So that made me happy! Compared to every restaurant in New Orleans, the caprese salad is the freshest (and prettiest)! I love that you have the option of building your own slice, which is rare. The wine/beer options are pretty fantastic too. I appreciate the fact that the kitchen is so open and visible so nothing is hidden & you can rest assured that all your food is handled properly etc... Needless to say, if I do not feel like making the trip to the Bywater for my #1 favorite pizza in town, this is truly the only other pizza place that makes the cut in my book.
(4)Kathryn G.
Amazing salads, pizza and ravioli are also excellent. I went during the boil water advisory, and a brief (1 minute or less) blackout and the service was STILL AWESOME. The atmosphere is great!
(5)Jonathan S.
After a long day of walking around NOLA with my wife and our 3 kids under the age of 8, we were dog tired and in need of sustenance. We took the trolley car down St Charles and I used Yelp to find us some pizza along the way. Walking in, we had more than enough room to fit our stroller without taking it down, which is always nice. The place was fairly empty for a Sunday afternoon so we walked to the back and took a seat. The service was great, got us plenty of water right away and took our order. Our XL pepperoni was delicious as expected and satisfied everyone at the table. Our waitress recommended the bread pudding as a local favorite so we went in for that as well. It was a bit burnt and covered up with sugar toppings but we still polished it off. All in all a solid find for some wary tourists looking for a slice of pizza.
(4)Oliver D.
It's as good as I remember it back in college. Hot and crispy crust. Solid supreme pizza is a staple. Plus the tomato basil soup was delicious. We also ordered Chocolate chip bread pudding...get dat!
(4)Suzanne C.
One of the lone voices of dissent, owing almost exclusively to personal taste. Friends, I am not a fan of the thin crust pizza. Slice loves the thin crust pizza. You may already see where we differ. It's not that Slice is bad. It's not that I will avoid this place. It's just that I don't love it the way everyone else does, when I have Cafe Roma even closer to my house (with delivery) offering me the same amazing toppings on a crust I prefer for less moola. Yes, Slice is fresh. Yes, Slice is interesting. Yes, Slice is full of hipsters. Yes, Slice has sexy waitstaff. Yes, Slice has a good bar. yes, Slice makes amazing salads. But no, Slice isn't my favorite. I also don't love the crowd of clove-smokers who hang out in front of Slice and try to kick my bike tires when I'm taking to the sidewalks in the dark. Not cool, guys! Not cool! Accessibility notes: Cramped for folks with mobility devices. Can get loud at peak hours. Bathrooms are tiny. No braille menu or signage. Booths can be a tight squeeze.
(2)C.Rose P.
Gotta love the pitcher special- paired with their generally good pricing, and the quality of food, makes for a great dinner. Tip; The restaurant just keeeps onnnn goinngg. Like an ass, I picked a seat in the cramped front of the house. Didn't realize there was so much more dining room until I went to use the restroom... Much nicer!

The service puts this one over the top. Everyone was very friendly and the place had a 'real' feal. Even the patrons seemed like a nice bunch. I think if I lived near by this could become a regular spot for me. Good food and atmosphere at a great price. The pizza itself is probably not the best you've ever had, but it just might come in second.

When people get hurt and end up in the hospital, they should be fed intravenously using Slice's shrimp remoulade sauce. Of course, they may never want to wake up or leave. It's that good. This cute spot has an open kitchen, tables in the front, booths along the middle, and a bar in the back. After slopping up all the sauce with buttered bread, we noshed on bacon-chicken-cheese ravioli and pesto pasta with salmon. The perfect complement: Amita Satsuma beers. Deliciomo!

Reliable and reasonably priced except for the time I ordered tomato soup and you charged me for the jambalaya cuz it was " the soup of the day". 8 bucks for basil and tomato? Not on my watch. So I send it back and you call out to the cook "86 the soup". Dude looks like an extra from Sons of Anarchy. His response? He throws the soup and starts cursing. Now I don't have an MBA in management, but that seems like a management opportunity. Step up and say something next time. Don't be scared of the biker types. They got moms and cry in the night like everyone else.

Perfect start to a perfect first visit to New Orleans! Very chill atmosphere and delicious food with an upscale feel and hometown prices! Thank you!
(5)Michael S.
Slice is pretty good, and one of the better pizza places in the city, if not the best. The St Charles location is definitely better than the one on Magazine Uptown.
(4)Joseph D.
Great service. Server was right on. Pizza - bacon, basil & garlic - medium crust - wasn't greasy. Price was very reasonable.
(5)Karen C.
They have beer floats now. AMAZING!!!!!! I'm still thinking about them.
(5)Ann H.
Stopped in for a late dinner last night...had the Caesar salad, the Fresh slice, and the hubby had a slice of the pancetta/Gorgonzola/arugula and the bacon/roasted garlic slice. Perfect meal with friendly staff. The kitchen was a little slow, but other than that had a great time.
(4)Jenn C.
I came here while on vacation, and while the pizza alone was delicious enough for a return visit, what I was truly enamored with was the Caesar Salad. I was surprised at the addition of roasted red pepper, but it turned out to be a great compliment to the flavors! I had to come back on my last night to get one last dose for takeout. Image my disappointment when I got back to my hotel to find they'd forgotten to give me any dressing for my full serving of salad. It was just not worth a 15min round trip walk for a girl alone at night to ask for a refund/get dressing. Had to knock off a star for this cruel Caesar denial. Other points in their favor: *Our first night we came minutes before closing, so thought we should take-out so they could close down. The server we talked to did not begrudge our late appearance in the least, and pleasantly encouraged us to sit. They seat up through closing. *As hinted by the name, they also serve to-order pizza by the slice. We were able to order a full pizza, and a specialty slice just to sample. Both delicious!
(4)Marcus K.
Good pizza, excellent service on this Friday night. Don't get the tiramisu. It comes in from a long way away (Chicago). Is there no one closer who can supply a good tiramisu???
(4)Jennifer S.
Not true Italian style pizza, but pretty good for American-variety pizza. Service is typically excellent & food is quick.
(3)Dallas C.
We stayed just a few blocks from Slice. My hubby likes to try different pizzas wherever we go....he is from NY and lives in Chicago-- so pizza is a passion. Anyway he loved this place! Amazing...with all the great food in NOLA I still could not keep him away from this place. He returned to enjoy the different types-- all great. Staff service was warm and inviting and by the end of our stay, he was on a first name basis with the entire crew!
(5)Berrius B.
Chianti happy hour $3. Good pizza, with unusual options. If you want to break out of a pizza rut, this is the way to do it.
(4)Alex C.
One of my favorite all time Pizza places in the city (New Orleans).It's not a flashy place, it doesn't beg for your attention, its just a nice laid back atmosphere that makes you feel right at home. It's almost like when you walk thru the door the them song to that famous TV show "Cheers" plays in your head. The workers are always nice, outgoing, and very attentive. The bar although maybe small its still very inviting and all part of the charm of this special place. Now onto the food, the pizza is immaculate,once you take the first bite into your pizza, you automatically roll your eyes into the back of your head and can't help but to let out a mmmmmmmmmmm. I always order the meat pizza, with almost every meat topping known to man on it. Meatball,Ham,Bacon,Pepperoni,Sausage. The only negative to eating the pizza is when its all gone and trust me you will be begging for more. They also have an extensive collection of beer and we are not talking about Budweiser or Miller Lite, which they have as well. We are talking about introducing you to new flavors and beers you have never heard of but never fail to be delicious. All and all its just one the best attractions on St.Charles, hop on a streetcar ride down the line, hop off right in front of Slice grab a slice or a few, have a beer and roll out, I guarantee you will always have a great experience.
(5)Sharon A.
Probably my favorite pizza of all time - good thin crust, just right amount of sauce, service was great . . . this was a hole in the wall, it didn't look like much when I walked in - but my son assured me that it was great - he was right. . . . I woke up the next morning wishing they were open at 9am, so I could grab a whole pie to munch on as I drove to Dallas, TX - Excellent!!!!!!!!!
(5)Keith W.
Wife loves this place and to be honest so did I and to top it off it was real cheap, both of us ate for $10
(4)Bonnie B.
Cute restaurant. We sat outside and the pizza was very good as was the salad. Service was great too. Very family friendly.
(4)Mike B.
We wandered in here accidental while strolling through the Garden District and boy are we glad we did! They have a lot of unique ingredients that are very fresh, such as broccoli and yellow corn. Their greek pizza is very delish! The crust is light and flaky, with a cornmeal bottom. Also, they have a nice full bar in the back, which makes having a beer and a pizza all the more enjoyable.
(4)Ryan D.
I've had better pizza in one other place - a New York hole in the wall called Sal's. Other than that, this is the best pizza out there. That's assuming, of course, you don't favor the messy caserole that is Chicago style pizza. Friendly, full bar, great pizza; ehat else can you ask for?
(5)Maggie W.
This place is the bomb! You can order any pizza by the slice (as the name suggests) and they have different speciality pizzas in rotation. Also, they have delicious mojitos. I have always received great service here.
(5)Keaton B.
Let me start this review by saying that my "par" for pizza is Star in Houston - the best I've had in the world. Roaming the streets of New Orleans (outside the French Quarter for once), we stumbled upon this little dive. The wait staff seemed younger and more "indie" than most people we'd even seen in New Orleans, which was interesting. It's obviously close to a university or something. They were quick to recommend their favorites, and we took them. I had a slice of the spinach, sun-dried tomato, and artichoke "white" pizza (that means no tomato sauce) and a slice of the white pie, which had several cheeses on it. Both were pretty amazing, even though it may not be the best pizza in the world. We finished with the praline gelato and a shot of espresso, both of which were great. We call New Orleans "The Big Lazy" for how lethargic we find most people here to be. The pizza alone would have earned this place 4 stars, but the prompt and friendly service and modern ambiance gave it the extra bump it needed. A great, cheap lunch or dinner spot if you're ever in the area.
(5)Eddie W.
Great fresh pizza but not good for reheat! Got the meatlovers and enjoyed it when it was fresh.
(4)Natalie M.
Great pizza, fabulous calzones, a fun, cheap laid back atmosphere! I loved this place during undergrad, where a calazone with 4 toppings would cost $7 and last for 2 meals. The wait staff is friendly yet laid back and the open cooking area makes for wonderful aromas. My 72yrs old Great-Aunt, who isnt particularly fond of pizza LOVES this place and demands that we go back next time we are in NOLA. If you local, dont pass this place up and if you are a tourist, this establishment is a reminder that NOLA has more to offer than seafood.
(5)Tri N.
Itching for some pizza, my friends recommended this place. On a nice warm sunny day we came and were seated promptly by a nice waitress. The place had a simple, contemporary design, and more importantly clean. I ordered a slice of the shrimp and andouille, along with a slice of bacon, basil and garlic, a cesar salad and asking the waitress to surprise me with a drink (she chose strawberry italian soda). The salad was like a cesar anywhere else, and the italian soda is good but nothing unique. They do know their pizza though. Thin crust, with crispy, slightly chewy base, and topped with fresh ingredients except one exception. The bacon slice was loaded with crispy salty delicious crumbled bacon, and fresh chopped basil and roasted garlic. This was an awesome choice, and I would order a whole pizza of this if given a choice. The other slice was dissappointing though. The shrimp tasted a bit old, and the andouille was nothing special. At least the crust was good, but I would not order this again. I will coming back here to try out all their other choices next time I am in town. =)
(4)anna s.
super tasty pizza and I am from Philly so I know pizza lol
(4)Rico C.
Rico friends make him come here. Pizza New Orleans is big dispoint for Rico pero I go anyway. Bottom bread on pizza make Rico feel wonderful. Muy garlic for the taste. Maybe Rico no find exceptional more pizza here for New Orleans.
(4)Lindsay A.
This weekend I went to Slice on St. Charles and it was absolute chaos. I called in a to go order and they said it would take about 25 minutes. After attempting to park for 10 minutes, I entered Slice about 25 minutes after I called in the order. There was one line for both take out orders and people putting their name on the list to be seated. Chaos with a capital K. So I finally got to the front of the line. Great Awesome. The computer is down. Bummer. The guy starts hitting the computer and cussing. Buzz kill. I have a to go order I say. "Name?" Lindsay. Yeah it's not done yet. What? So I wait. It comes out of the oven 10 minutes later. Total time for pizza? 40 minutes.Taste when I got home? Delicious. The pizza was absolutely yummy. I really do like Slice pizza, I think it's some of the best pizza in New Orleans. Slice St. Charles is a small space. There is no way around it. The Slice on Magazine is much better for dining in. However, I still like the pizza and the St. Charles location is much closer for me. Delicious homemade pizza, even if the wait is a little too long for the product. My advice? Go for a late lunch and take advantage of their happy hour and lack of crowd. But overall, if you're looking for pizza in New Orleans, this is pretty frickin good.
(4)Jen L.
Go to place for pizza. Good pasta & salads too. The only place that I know of in NOLA that sells by the slice.
(4)Elton A.
My first taste of New Orleans was Slice. Pizza, hmm... Now what I wouldve thought of, but it was awesome pizza at that. Took a few minutes to cook, but the slice I got was worth it. We stayed down the road just a short walk away, but I would've driven for another slice after hanging out on Frenchmen St. Atmosphere and the music was very Baltimore, where I'm from, and the staff was pleasant, so it felt like a piece of home on St Charles Ave. I'll eat here again very soon. Hopefully sooner than I expected! New Orleans did something to me unexplainable, and it's places like this that are pullin me back!
(5)MJ D.
They renovated the back room since my last visit. Less bar, more tables, very noisy. Pizza is still superb,
(4)L M.
Talk about an unassuming place, Slice is it. Located near Lee circle, this place is easy to access using the St. Charles street car line. There is street parking but usually is filled up. I discovered the place quite by accident but I'm glad I did. I went in thinking "OK, gourmet pizza by the slice. good deal". I was pleasantly surprised. Waitstaff is funny and friendly, and the food is great. I went in as a party of four and we all got something different. Mine was called a Trucker, it was from the Calzone section of the menu and it was one of the best calzones I've ever had and I'm from New England and lived in Italy. Leave to NOLA to make the calzone their own, Slice serves it bent in a crescent shape, what can you expect from the crescent city. It was just the right amount of olive oil, meat juices and cheese oil. Blended together a fabulous balance. Slice does them slightly different in that they serve the sauce on the side and not in the calzone. Portion sizes are good, bordering on huge but that just means you can have it the next day for breakfast. If you want a great pizza treat in NOLA, you can't go wrong with Slice. Only criticism is that rest rooms are below par, only real compliant.
(4)Matthew M.
Slice never disappoints. The place needs a little touch-up paint and it's a little cramped, but the pizza is always great. The servers look a little "indie" (which in my mind usually equals bad service) but they always rise above and beyond and never let your drink empty. They accommodated a party of eight for us today at noon on a Friday with NO WAIT! Tres Impresse! Love the Prosciutto, arugula, and gorgonzola pizza. I add roasted garlic to it and it is wonderful. The pizza is very thin crust with a cornmeal dusting underneath. Also there is a little bar in the back area that is usually laid-back and usually includes a cute and attentive bartender.
(5)Britta M.
Yum!!! Nice, casual and great pizza.
(5)Ryan W.
Slice is fighting to overtake Reginelli's for my favorite Pizza in the metro area. The Pizza is delish, and you can by it, as the name implies, by the slice. The only drawback is the place trys too hard too be "hip" and it can (but dows not always) show in the attitude of the waitstaff and the speed of the kitchen.
(5)Don B.
Moving up! Now at 4 stars from my original 2. This place is really starting to rock it out. Service has been consistant, as well as food. Still wanting to have a slammin' Pizza from here as my past pizza experiences have been mediocre.
(4)Cameron W.
The happy hour beer special (M-F, 4-7) is amazing. For 5 bucks you get a pitcher of NOLA Brown or NOLA Blonde. 5 bucks! Or you can get a pint for $2.75. And the pitchers are big! Best beer bargain in town, no doubt. I went for the first time, attracted by the cheap, quality beer. The pizza was the best I've eaten in this town. I had a slice of Bacon Basil and Garlic, and a slice of Proscuito, Gargonzola, and Arugula. Outstanding. Tons of garlic, tons of gargonzola. I wanted a slice of Shrimp and Andouille pizza, but it was $5.75. A bit pricey. But I had my 2 gourmet slices, and 4 pints of beer from the pitcher, and ended up paying just $13!!! The server was good (and cute).
(5)Richard L.
We went to New Orleans for a conference/vacation and ended up eating here 3 times. We eat out a lot and everywhere was so tourist like. I think this is the type of place I would eat if I lived in New Orleans to avoid the tourists. Lots of variety, helpful staff. Nice little bar in the back but family friendly in the front. Kids liked picking out their own popsicles from the cooler.
(5)Christopher W.
All pizza in New Orleans must be compared to the greatness that is Pizza Delicious and this pizza is ok but not even close. They have more of a selection then PD but the quality and crust are no where near as good. If your uptown this is not a bad option for pizza but for me its just ok.
(3)Thomas D.
Enjoyable pizza joint with good choices. Interesting crust, can't quite putt finger on its uniqueness. It's crispy, like how deep dish can be, but it's more NYC style. I like to stop in with out of town friends after exploring the LGD.
(4)Marc R.
NOLA's Finest Piz joint
(5)Nicole C.
Still have mad love for this place. Went in on Saturday night, about 10, grabbed a table easily. This time we split a medium PGA pizza with prosciutto di parma, imported gorgonzola, organic arugula. Fan-freakin-tastic! I would definitely get this pie again. They say "honey by request" under the description of this pie. Well, I was intrigued, let me try this with honey! Crazy enough, totally worked. They brought a small side of honey, dripped it lightly on my PGA slice, perfect bite! Slice is still my favorite.
(5)Josh F.
A great place to chill out, have a great slice of pizza (or several) and a few beers. This is my "go-to" joint for pizza. The best part about their pizza is that they have a number of selections that can be ordered by the slice, giving people the opportunity to try as many as they can handle in one sitting. I recently tried the salad they have that has salmon on it and it's great too. Twice I've ordered it and it's my new personal favorite. They've updated their menu and removed a few things. My favorite perk to this place is that, when we ask, they will still serve one of our favorite items that they removed.
(4)Christine F.
Their pizza is the best thin crust pizza in town! Salads are great as well. Hope off of the streetcar and get you some pizza!
(5)Ryan B.
Love this place! The meat lovers pizza is my absolute favorite. They deliver too which is amazing.
(5)Katelin N.
Well it's been a year and I did go back, and honestly I was less impressed by this visit. I've just had better pizza, and by better I mean tastier crust, more abundant and evenly spread toppings, not to mention friendlier service.
(3)Jonathan S.
Some of the better pizza in New Orleans. It gets an extra star from me because they sell by the slice. After living in Brooklyn, this is vital.
(4)Thom S.
Oh man. Delicious. I'm going to miss this place when I go back to Virginia tomorrow. I'm here for the second time in as many days. Great atmosphere, DELICIOUS food! I highly recommend the mussels appetizer, the Flying Hawaiian, the Meat Lovers, and the gelato. There is local artwork for sale hanging on the walls if you have a few hundred bucks to kill.
(5)Bethany S.
When you first walk in, Slice is a dank lite hole-in-the-wall. But don't judge a pizzeria by it's digs! Let me first say the prices were great - we went for dinner and got three slices, two half salads, mussels, gelato, and a pitcher of beer for $50 (including tip!). The Mesclun Salad is delicious. Full of color and flavor, it's something you would expect to see in an upscale restaurant. I had the Margherita Pizza - which, despite it's simplicity, had the perfect combination of sauce, cheese, and toppings on a not-too-crispy thin crust. GET THE MUSSELS. If you like shellfish, you will LOVE these - I could have eaten my body weight in this appetizer. The white wine sauce was amazing. Also, half price pitchers on Tuesdays!
(5)David G.
Good food good prices. Wether you want a whole pizza or just a slice anything can be made.
(4)Sonny S.
This place is amazing. It's a local place near the hotel I was staying in. The staff at slice is incredibly friendly and make some great recommendations. This isn't a fast food place, so don't expect your food to come out right after you order. They make everything from scratch. I recommend getting the pizzas and calzones. The pizza are so unique and you can make your own calzones. The place is small, but it's super cozy. Here's what I got: -shrimp and andouille sausage pizza -calzone with ricotta and prosciutto I'll be back again when I'm down in the bayou, lol
(5)William R.
Me and the kids stop by here whenever we are in the area it's small but it's very family friendly. The pizza always fresh the garlic bread us homemade. If you're are by either location I recommend you stop by for a slice..pun intended
(4)Natalie H.
This is the perfect crust, perfect fresh toppings, perfect drink specials pizza joint in all of my rotation of pizza options. I appreciate that the "by the slice" option is quite possibly the same size of pizza as a "small" anywhere else. One slice is perfect for lunch and I like to pair it with a salad. I love the BBG pizza which is a white pizza with bacon, basil, and garlic. The four cheese margherita is also delicious if you're looking for something a little more traditional. The best best part is that you can add on any extra toppings you like TO A SLICE! You can't even do that in New York! Bah! If you're hankering for pizza during the football season they have a weekly pizza in honor of the opposing team so you can EAT DAT and we all feel like a bit of a winner. You're welcome Drew! I love you, Slice. Thank you for fulfilling all of my pizza desires.
(4)Katrina S.
Dear Gluten Free Friends.... Get ready to embrace your love and lust for thin crust pizza with fresh toppings once again! Made in house and fresh weekly, Slice makes the best gluten free pizza crust hands down. Yes, even good enough that your gluten loving friends will embrace sharing this medium pie with you without hesitation. Don't overlook the delicious salads with homemade salad dressings that will make you feel like the woes of the world have slightly melted. The shrimp appetizer is deliciously... really I've never seen anyone walk away here hungry. Oh, and if you are thirsty - don't worry the full stocked bar runs great specials and makes a good every day cocktail. To top it all off the staff has always been friendly with unique personalities providing smiles to customers.
(4)Jill C.
Everything I've had here is REALLY good...time tested and grown up approved...BBQ shrimp is my favorite, however, the meatballs are delightful as well... The pizza is thin crust...which is a comfort and tradition from the NE that was a really good call on Slice's part...YES! Still awesome....staff works hard and enjoys where they are... Which says something.
(5)Girlie G.
Reasonably priced but the pizza didn't have much flavor, very plain, needs more seasonings. Rude on the phone, stingy on Ranch. I wouldn't eat here again.
(1)Cristen F.
This is my favorite pizza place in town. I love the crust - not too thick, not too thin. It's made with part cornflour or cornmeal so is crispier than most crusts, which I prefer. The sauce is fantastic and there is almost anything you'd consider putting on a pizza for toppings. I generally go with the Greek add chicken or meatball with peppers. The meatballs are wonderful. It's also a good choice for lunch to get a slice with a small side salad.
(5)Rene D.
I couldn't face one more conversation re: dinner. After a long day of work & school, standing over a stove was the last thing I was worried about. Pizza to the rescue! Slice offered everything I needed: hot, fresh pizza, ready and waiting for me when I arrived within the timeframe I was given over the phone. It was a little soggy by the time I got it home (5 minutes?), it tasted as good as it looked. But 3 stars? Well, I think the Magazine location offers a better pizza and higher quality, in both appearance ans taste. That's too bad, since this location is so close to home.
(3)Michael P.
So while visiting New Orleans, I decided to grab some pizza around the corner from my hotel. Little did I know that I would be getting some of the Best Pizza around. Living in California, I have found 2 good pizza places that deserve a good yelp review. 2 in 28 years. However, the first pizza place I walk into in New Orleans happens to be this place, some of the best pizza I have had. Well Done Slice. Well Done. *slow clap*
(5)Dave W.
What's not to like. Right next door to my hotel, full bar, ice cold beer & a damn decent slice. Stoked. Man I love this town.
(4)Danielle S.
I came to Slice on the recommendation of a friend and I'm not a pizza aficionado by any means unless it's out of a box but this is damn good pizza. I luv that it's thin crust and you can get it by the slice and these aren't a small slice. I've never had pizza in New York City but I've been told it's just as good. Now, my only complaint is that the bartenders (the females) don't ever seem to be eager to wait on other females. Word of advise, we usually tip better than men. But overall, a great place to grab a slice.
(4)Sarah E.
Exceptional pizza! I particularly like the special with everything on it. The pies are large and the toppings are fresh.
(4)Wendy P.
Always on point with service. Great bar (even for non drinkers) to sit, socialize and eat. Music selection is eclectic. There's no telling what will be up next. Salads are wonderful. I love the arugula. No matter what you put on your slice or pie, you won't be disappointed. Check out the mussels, they're yummy. Don't skip desert.
(4)Nicole F.
I love that you can order pizza by the slice. I usually get 2 completely different slices, and a fresh salad. Their salads are large and delicious. They also make great sangria and Mojitos. We go to this location a good bit.
(4)Alan S.
Less than $10 for a filling, tasty and unique lunch. Winning! Two slices of pizza was plenty to fill me up. I went with the special of the day which including salmon, capers, a poached egg, and goat cheese on a white slice. It was one of the most interesting pizza experiences I've ever had. It was like Jewish breakfast on a pizza. It was good. My other slice was one of their regular specialties, the sportsman's paradise. This slice included shrimp, sausage, corn among the toppings. A totally different taste experience from my first slice but also good. Not only did I enjoy the food, I enjoyed the experience of all the flavors and being able to have some rather unique items on a pizza. I highly recommend this place even if you have to make the 20-25 minute hike from the french quarter (or take the St. Charles street car if you are lazy!).
(5)heather t.
The pizza is really great but the staff has problems with things like taking orders and bringing the orders to you. The bartender told me he was too busy to make drinks when I asked for a cocktail at the bar while I waited the 20 minutes for our waiter to come to the table. Later the waiter rolled his eyes at me when I asked for a meat-free slice of the 'spinach and artichoke' pizza - it had arrived coated in bacon. I don't think it is unreasonable to assume that the spinach and artichoke pizza will be meat free, but apparently I am a huge pain in the ass. I would rather go somewhere else where I don't have to feel like it was an honor to receive food that I ordered and would eventually pay for.
(1)Ryan P.
I had high hopes for this place but was disappointed by my lunch here. I got a slice of the andouille and shrimp pizza and veggie pizza. The shrimp was had an off flavor to it and I could really only eat about two bites. The andouille wasn't anything special. The veggie was just okay, almost boring. The dough had very little flavor. The waitress didn't even ask us how our food was or why 3/4 of my pizza was uneaten. Check out the far superior Louisiana Pizza Kitchen instead.
(2)Yelping Drunk X.
So, like every fucking restaurant in garden/uptown that's not bar food closes at 9 on Sunday, where are we Dayton, oh?!? So me and a friend decide to walk to slice from my place. On the way there we encounter a man who is clearly dressed from a restaurant job (probably a stupid restaurant that closes at 9) who "has to get to DEEP Kenner" and his "friends car overheated" so he needs two dollars for bus fare. First of all what bus goes to Kenner, second of all, maybe you should have asked a coworker I have no cash, so he walk past us and calls me a "fucking bitch." Good start to the meal! We sit down and are Informed mimosas and bloodys are half off. AMAZING. Our waiter is nice and very alt, in fact the whole bar crowd was alt. I could def see our waiters moose knuckle. Pizza was totes dec! (Not as good as New York) Bloodys were pretty good, could use a slice of bacon in them but had okra!
(4)Meghan B.
Yummy Pizza - great service - good prices
(5)Meg B.
Food was pretty good. Do yourself a favor and try one of their Popsicles. I tried the cheesecake blueberry one and my husband kept trying to steal it!! Atmosphere was chill and the staff was young and tatooed.
(3)Benjamin G.
Found this place when I was searching for a quick lunch spot. I had a lunch of pizza and salad, and I have to admit the food was really good. This place has a really great feel to it and the staff is super nice and attentive. I think the location is in a great spot being right on the street car line. Slice has a really nice selection of items and the ingredients are really fresh and tasty.
(4)Eboni F.
One word. Amazing! Had a Spinach salad and the pesto ravioli w/ chicken and bacon. The food was phenomenally fresh and tasty. The roasted tomatoes in the salad were just great. I called ahead for pick-up so when I got it home it was warm. I can only imagine how great it would be getting it straight outta the oven.... Next time I''ll dine in!
(5)Amanda G.
My coworkers and I used to eat lunch here sometimes when I worked downtown. The pizza was ok. The mussels were delish! The service was very slow and we quickly realized that it is not a place to go when you only have an hour for your lunch break. *** EDIT/UPDATE *** Yes - The serivce still leaves much to be desired - however, I have recently fallen in love with "The White Pie." It's yummo & you should try it :)
(2)Shanna D.
We are NOT New York or Chicago, those places are known for their pizza. I've personally experience both and they are hard to beat, but if you live in New Orleans or just visiting and craving a pizza then Slice is the best pizza in town. No pre-made frozen crust here. The crust is thin, light and crispy (corn meal sprinkled on the bottom of the pan makes the crust crispy) you can try it at home when making your own pizza, it works! :) All the topping are fresh and plentiful. Great service and reasonably priced. Order a pitcher of Abita Beer and Enjoy! :)
(4)Noah F.
Glad I was staying nearby, because this was the BEST pizza I've EVER had. [not a case of hyperbole]
(5)Jane M.
I'm from Chicago and I'm giving it four stars. Need I say more? I think not.
(4)Rebecca P.
Fantastic. I love trying their daily specials, and the unique pizzas they offer are really amazing. Their caprese salad is definitely my favorite in the city... simple and beatifully presented. They also have great happy hour specials for beer and wine.
(4)Heather S.
Love the pizza, but the main reason I go there is the BBQ shrimp. Pretty much in love with it.
(4)Sean H.
FINALLY, I find a place in New Orleans that seems not to be teeming with tourists ... tough to find "locals" places in this town. The chicken, bacon, and basil ravioli were insanely delicious - perfectly cheesy, baked hot in a cast-iron dish, flavorful - the crushed tomato sauce was the perfect foundation on which the other flavors were built, and the fresh basil on top simply POPPED in my mouth. Wonderful. Warm, friendly, accommodating and casual - not to metion very reasonably priced, Slice is a gem ... smack dab on St Charles - easy street parking on the sidestreets.

First, I must stipulate that I am an Italophilic pizza fan, so a place like Slice is starting with a strike against it (Italians know nothing of slices and eat pizza whole, with knife and fork). Despite this, I love Slice and eat there very regularly. The pizza is, obviously, great-thin crusted, little or no char but crispy handle. I love the white pizza with arugula, or the standard cheese with ricotta and mushrooms added. Calzones are enormous and delicious.Their salads, especially the mesculin, are quite good, and they make a decent cacio e pepe pasta. On the minus side, their bruschetta with tomatos and balsamic is borderline inedible. Service can be passive-aggressive, low grade hostile to newcomers unless one is festooned with tattoos and projects a punk rock aura.

Nice that the restaurant was only a block from our hotel. Stopped by during happy hour and got a large pitcher of Abita for $5. Orderd mushroom-goat cheese bruschetta which was simple yet perfectly executed. Bread crispy and not too thick. Also had a half salad, perfect portion. BBQ Shrimp was full of flavor, rich and garlicky. Shrimp were not huge but tasted nice and fresh, and were not overcooked. Had a slice of white and a slice of regular. Both delicious, but enjoyed the regular a bit more. In any case the dough was delicious. Would have definitely eaten here again had we more time to spend in town.

Payed a visit to Slice while staying at a B&B on Prytania St. The white pizza was awesome; just like what I used to get while living in the northeast! I'll definitly keep this place in mind if I make it back to New Orleans in the future.

Slightly upscale atmosphere with casual joint prices and one of my top go-to places. Slice has a great menu selection for both meat lovers and the veggie people without a qualitative drop in flavor. Like most self respecting pie shop, you can order by the slice which is good for those that are indecisive or have a hankering for a wide variety of flavors. You cannot go wrong with any of the pies. Slice's other menu options are fantastic as well. The Trucker and Roasted Garden calzones are two of my favorite items on their menu and will leave you full without feeling overly stuffed. I cannot comment on the Magazine location, but the staff are great at the St. Charles location. They are always nice and quick with service. If you are looking for a good pizza or Italian lunch or dinner, Slice is definitely the place to go.

Probably my favorite pizza in New Orleans. I love that you can get any of their pizzas by the slice, and one is enough to fill you up, wash it down with an Abita amber and I am in pizza heaven. The dough is tender with just the slightest bit of crispyness on the edges, the sauce is smooth and flavorful and the toppings run the gambit. Enjoy!
(5)Chris C.
Love this place. Where else can you try speciality pizzas by the slice. The prices are very reasonable and one slice is enough for a meal. Everything we have tried has been good. The garlic bread with cheese is great. The MTB Panini (mozzarella, tomato, basil-pesto) is terrific. The ingredients are very fresh. Recent bonus. They now have Aventinus Weizenbock beer on tap from Germany. This is a strong, dark, wheat doppelbock. They serve it in authentic glasses. With 8.2% alcohol, this beer has a kick!
(5)Allison R.
I keep trying to get into Slice, but every time I go, I keep getting another reason to not like it. There is NOTHING on the menu without cheese on it. When you ask them for something without cheese , either it comes pre-made like that or they just can't do it. The one thing I had ont he menu that was excellent, they took off. Not my favorite place to eat.

Ive been to this place a couple of times but only the last time that I was there did I finally have some good service. From greetin ya at the door to the waittress making sure that I was doing ok. In the past, I thought the food was ok and overpriced including the service was horriendous with the waittress and their nasty ass attitudes. On this last trip to Slice, I met some co-workers there for some pizza. I protested at first, but decided to go ahead and meet them there. I went ahead and ordered the strawberry salad, it was ok, nothing to brag about. Next up, I had the caprese salad. Damn but it was good with that balsamic syrup dressing. I liked that it was the caprese iteself was not drenched in the dressing. Just a subtle toss here and there...perfect. I can still think about those wonderful sliced tomatos with the yummy slices of mozzarella cheese. So light with the perfect compliment of the sweet balsamic syrup. Next, the guys came in and both ordered. The calzone is humungous. The other guy ordered 5 slices of pizza to which the waittress made a bet that he wouldnt finish it. She was right. I ordered a white slice, plain, but that thin and crispy crust has me yearning to come back. Hmmmmmmm....food. Ok, the place is a bit tight and gets crowded fast so you have to hurry if you want to get a table for lunch or dinner. It's cash and credit. As far as family friendly---hmmmm...could be. Parking is offstreet.

(I have only eaten at the Magazine Street location) For years, my favorite pizza in New Orleans has been Roman Pizza on Cohn Street in Uptown. But now I'm thinking I may like Slice even more. Oddly enough, the pizza here seems to taste even better when I just order a slice. When we get an entire pizza, the crust doesn't seem to be quite as crispy and it's a little on the wet side. Still a great pizza, but their pizza by the slice is the best. If you like New York style pizza like me, I think you'll like Slice.
(5)Prescott R.
Quality pizza joint in NO. I don't say this lightly being originally from NY and love NY Pizza. Though I did not have pizza the calzone I had was fantastic, you could tell all the ingredients were fresh. The vegs and the cheese are on point, the calzone dough was cooked to perfection, crispy and brown on the outside and chew and tasty on the inside. The bar drinks are what you expect in NO, strong and tasty. I had a mango margarita on the rocks....dudes don't drink slushies. They made their own mango infused tequila....now that's a real restaurant.
(4)Thomas C.
Stopped here on Tuesday afternoon for a late lunch: one of their specialty slices and an Abita draft. I can't remark about much on the menu, since I only had one item, but that was terrific, and to judge from the the other plates around me, Slice does it right; all of it looked good---entrees, sandwiches, pies---even on a rainy Tuesday at 2:30pm. Can't imagine pizza getting much better in NOLA (though if you're looking for New York style, continue onward). Good atmosphere and service, the only drawback being the tight parking off St. Charles.
(5)Anthony H.
I'm from Nevada/California so the South is new for me. The vibe of this place is off the hook. The chef's are bumping tunes and dancing while they cook. Our waiter was super helpful and knowledgable about the beer and the food. Just a good dude. He recommended the BBQ Shrimp app Boy and it was PHENOMENAL. One of the best meals I've ever had. If you come here GET THE PO BOY!!!
(5)Meredith H.
How could you take the meatballs off the menu?! I heard 5 people ask and complain about it. BEFORE ME! I only started coming here. I had them 2 times and they are gone!!! WHY?! WHY?! WHY?! WHY?! PLEASE BRING BACK THE MEATBALLS OR WE'LL STOP COMiNG!!!!!! So sad about this... You ruined my Tuesday :(
(2)Benjamin G.
I ordered the Margherita from Slice on a Sunday afternoon. The delivery time was great, it only took about 30 minutes which I was shocked about. The price I felt was a little high but I'm not complaining because it seems like what most pizzerias are getting to now. I could tell that the pizza was hot before I even opened the box, which is always a plus. The issue came when I opened the box to dive in. The cheese had all melted back together so the slices were very hard to pull apart, ended up having to recut them. Then the pizza was just very flimsy. You could not pick up a slice and just eat it at all. The crust was very thin and soaked all the way through. The flavor was good but overall I wasn't very satisfied with the pizza, may try again eating in their restaurant.
(3)Joel M.
Had this location bookmarked and figured since had the kids with me in NOLA we'd give it a try... kids love pizza... Found it easy on St. Charles, parking was a breeze, found street parking right in front of St. Charles Tavern... when we walked in about 6ish on a Saturday just a couple of people at the bar but we were the only diners.. Lotta pizza for the price.... me and the boy split a medium Meat Lovers and it was plenty for a 16 year old boy with me, the Dad, not having to worry if he was gonna plow through the whole thing.... the baby girl wanted to try white pizza and I was happy that any pizza was offered by the slice... she went with a white slice with bacon and fresh basil and really loved it... However, in my humble opinion, the kids really loved the Garlic Bread with Red Gravy appetizer...I was lucky to get one piece of that garlic bread! Our waitress, didn't get her name but she has 2 6-shooters tattooed on her upper chest, was excellent, friendly and timely... plus the Leinenkugel Summer Shandy they were offering on tap hit the spot! All in all one helluva enjoyable stop and meal and brought it in for a damn reasonable price!
(5)Wendy R.
Slices after a late night in the warehouse district- I was sooo excited to see this place and my food. I especially like that you can order all of their specialty pizzas by the slice. Even finished off my meal with a chocolate cookie- because ya'know sometimes you need a cookie. Best.Cookie.Ever!
(5)Keandra R.
I frequent here quite often...possibly two to three times a month. And I love it. The staff is uber friendly and welcoming...and the location is great. The front of the restaurant is kinda setup like a "shotgun" New Orleans style house, but the back has more seating for larger groups. Whether ordering at the bar, getting take out, or having a quick sit down lunch I'm usually pretty pleased. The food....now I can't lie...I usually never venture from a slice and half salad, but it fills you up and for exactly $10.70 you can't be mad. The D'Luxe, Veggie, and Sportsman slices are my fave. The less than 5 star rating comes in for the hit or miss on the salads. The Mescluin salad (petite greens and seasonal fruit) was exceptionally WARM today. It appeared that nothing was refrigerated...not the greens, not the lettuce, not the dressing...NOTHING! And on another occasion I've had a greek salad, while cold, the lettuce was a lime green color. Not green like lettuce should be...so I'm sure I ate a salad that had no nutritional value. Even with those hiccups, its still one of my favorite go to places for a slice. I'll have to venture and try the mussels and the BBQ shrimp po-boy that I see others raving about.
(4)Bob N.
If Iron Maiden is on when you walk through the door you are going really mess up the food to not get five stars from this guy. In all serious Slice is a great place is New Orleans for a slice in a town that typically sells whole pies. Chow down on the broccoli & mushroom while Bruce Dickinson belts out can I play with madness and other metal hits. Local beers, from NOLA brewing and Abita as well as PBR and the like! Enjoy!
(5)Tiffany C.
While visiting NOLA I went here three times. It was that good, and this is from a Chicago gal who loves her pizza. Service is excellent. Super cute hipster vibe inside. Nice to sit at the bar or really nice to just take it and go. Everything is served within about 15minutes after you order and is fresh with the best ingredients. I had the veggie pizza, their mushroom pizza, their broccoli pizza, their spinach and goat cheese calzone, their meat lovers pizza. All were fantastic. The best of the bunch in my opinion was the all veggie. JUST DO IT AND EAT HERE!
(5)Adam S.
Very good pizza, served whole or by the slice, with a colorful decor and unique music mix. Fun spot in the Garden District.
(5)Greg H.
We enjoy Slice, it's a neighborhood standby for Pizza. Very disappointed with the recent change to the menu. It was nice to come in and get a pasta bowl, I guess we'll have to find another spot for pasta. Ohhh well... :(
(2)Joe Bert O.
WOW! This meal was awesome. Our waitress, Jessika, was friendly, helpful, i ordered the calzone, which was delightfully made with a white sauce and delicious toppings I chose. it came with steaming-hot (homemade) dipping sauce. My partner had a meat lovers pizza, which (due to the nature of the toppings) was a little salty but tasty but a little soggy-a result of the toppings and sauce. I loved every minute of my experience and look forward to my next visit.
(4)Cyn B.
Love Slice but sadly I discovered there's no more Happy Hour. What?! Please bring it back!! And extend the time to 6 for all us stuck behind a desk till 5.
(5)Desiree T.
Honestly the best vegan pizza around and only $20 for a large (that is really a large). The crust is so delicious. The sauce is great! I drive from Luling to get this pizza! The servers are always accommodating and helpful with the menu items.
(5)Alyssa J.
Underwhelmed. Underwhelmed to the point of annoyance. I sat at the bar. I asked, "what kind of pizza do you folks have here?" I always ask this because I LOVE PIZZA. I explained that I am a transplant...I'm used to New York and Boston pizza. Normally that is a conversation starter in and of itself....this bartender is getting married guys. She does not have time to talk about pizza! The response should have been an indication for me to walk away. "uhmm it's pizza. so, you know. it's pizza.Plus I'm getting married so I want to talk about getting married." She didn't say the last part.... Once I asked her to go into a bit more detail ....thin crust? greasy? deep dish? she began reading the ingredients to me. Then the bartender, who is getting married, took my drink order. When I told her that I would just be having a club soda at the moment, I learned that Andrew wasn't drinking for Lent. He might be drinking on St. Patrick's Day. Do I think that counts as not drinking???? The more right I write the more annoyed I am getting. The first slice I got was good. I liked the texture, the cheese...I thought they were a bit stingy on the marinara. I noticed to my chagrin when I placed my order at 5:02 that they had a 2/1 Happy Hour Special. I ordered another piece anyway. This one came out like a weathered shingle. It was burned. I could actually crack the pizza in half. Breakable pizza is sooo 2012. Anyway, I mentioned that the slice was "well done" and she sent it back. The new slice came out.....raw basically. I ate it. She didn't check on me again, so I guess it didn't matter what I felt about the second slice anyway. I will go try another location I guess, but I would not recommend this place, based on the service alone.
(2)Audrey L.
Good pizza, good calzones, good ice coffee and pretty location. Server/bartender was hanging out with friends/staff and as personable as she could be I guess. Good first visit. Used a groupon.
(5)Kristin P.
We went to Slice twice during our honeymoon because it was really good pizza and it was very close to the B&B we stayed in. We had the same waitress both times and she was very pleasant and efficient. You really get to customize your pizza and even if you only want a few slices, they'll still make it how you want it. The first time I got two slices of a pesto based pizza with caramelized onions, goat cheese and salmon. Mouth wateringly delicious. The next time my husband and I split a pie and unfortunately the waitress told the kitchen a red sauce base when we asked for a white sauce, but we didn't want to waste it so we ate it any way. Still very good. Great little pizza place with a friendly staff and they are also open really late which is nice.
(4)Chris F.
You wouldn't think it, but this pizzeria has the best BBQ shrimp po boy I've ever had. It is plenty rich, but they use quite a bit of Worcester sauce to help cut through all that richness. The shrimp are huge too. I dropped one on the floor and cried. There are a ton on the sandwich, but that didn't make losing one hurt any less. The Pizza is great too, an especially wonderful option during Parade Season. . I'm never really blown away by the food options on St Charles, but this place is a great exception to that. And that BBQ Shrimp PO-boy!
(4)Marcela M.
The pizza was greaaaaat!! It's a great spot to chill & eat on you're day off from work lol I didn't have the pasta but the person behind me did & it looked great. They seemed to enjoy it. I'm excited to go back & try it out.
(5)Jim M.
A rarity in my food travels- 5 stars! I have never heard these words from my wife, "don't know how anyone can make an Italian salad taste this good but they have done it!" The pizza was really awesome. A medium pie left my seventeen year old and I full, walking out with two pieces unconsumed. The service was awesome, patient, and friendly. Plus one star for the incredibly attentive and friendly waitress. Heck, they might think about changing New Orleans slogan to the Big Slice because of this place.
(5)Peter B.
Great pizza!! Had the Hawaiian pizza--delicious! Arugula salad very tasty. And Bloody Mary's---yummy!!!!!!! Would return.
(4)Tonya T.
Found our way to SLICE on St. Charles! Great food and staff!!! We really enjoyed it!!! Waiter was helpful and staff was helpful getting us back to how to reach our car via bus!!
(5)Charles H.
BRUISER OF A BBQ SHRIMP PO'BOY: yes, "Angie T", thank you for the heads up this really is one of the best shrimp po'boys I've ever had; rivaling "Milk Bar" & "Parkway" for best in city. "UPTOWN COOL": compared to sterile "Pizza Delicious", the staff at Slice are personable and chatty. PRICE VALUE: sautéed Po'boy (not battered & deep fried), easily splittable, just $12. MY ONLY COMPLAINT: the generously topped pizzas' thin crust is not crispy. I think it absorbs the moisture of the sauce and ingredients. Regardless go for the po'boy!
(4)Katie K.
This seems to be the Uptown go-to for pizza, but I've never really understood what the fuss is about. I tried Slice for the first time years ago, dining in at their St. Charles location. I remember being underwhelmed, but not dissatisfied. After seeing a forum on Facebook about the best place for pizza in New Orleans, and seeing all of the Slice voters, I decided to give it another try to change my opinion. Margherita has always been my favorite pizza, so I tried theirs. It's a four cheese take on the margherita. Nope. Entirely too much cheese for what is supposed to be an understated pizza that relies on simple, quality toppings. The crust in the middle of the pizza was soggy from the massive amount of greasy cheese sitting on top of it. I couldn't even taste the basil, which for me, has always been the best part of a good margherita. I had to wonder if it was fresh basil. Sauce and crust were otherwise not notable. Pizza is pizza. You're never really going to be mad at it. But I will continue to wonder what the fuss is about when it comes to Slice.
(3)Chrissy P.
Great pizzeria! Seemed to be full of locals, which is always a plus. My husband had the meat lovers calzone. Loved it so much, he had it two nights in a row! First time, I tried the penne pasta dish, which was ok, and next time I tried the cheese calzone. My calzone broke while in the oven, so they brought me a piece of cheese pizza to hold me over. Pizza was good, but the calzone was better! Definitely recommend!
(4)Kacie E.
I ordered delivery (charge pending on credit card), was told 60 minutes, food never showed. Phone has been busy for 45 minutes. It's been 2 hours and 15 minutes since I ordered!!! Really upset as food reviews were good
(1)Jamie R.
I'd rather get Domino's.
(1)Dwayne D.
I'm a New Yorker, and this is the best pizza I have had in New Orleans. Hands Down!! Caprese is fresh, light and delicious! Coming every week! Thank you for the food and the great energy from the staff!!
(5)Jackson K.
ALways good pizza! Lots of good options for toppings. Similar to NYC style, but not 100%. New Orleans is definitely not known for Pizza, but slice does good pizza for any area of the country
(5)Jerrel T.
The Pizza here is ok. I felt like I was eating a premium version of Dominos Pizza. The reason I gave the place 4 stars is because it makes for a great bar as well as customer service and location is great.
(3)Erin M.
Went with co workers for lunch. Split the whole Greek salad. So fresh and delicious. Got he 1 veggie slice. Amazing and so affordable. Can't wait to go back!

Ugh! That's what I get for not reading Yelp before going to a restaurant. Came here tonight to dine for LASPCA's Pause 4 Paws. Overall not a great experience. Parking- it's on St. Charles with no reserved parking lot like other restaurants around. I parked around the block. No biggie since I could always use the exercise. But I didn't like the two homeless people parked outside that were literally following people when they left. I know it's not their fault, but it's a huge creep factor. They could have stopped the solicitors from sitting outside their establishment then stalking their patrons that happen to carry big purses (empty of cash, btw.) This will definitely prevent any women (or self-preserving men) from eating here. I don't like looking behind me the entire time I'm walking to my car, which was around the block from the place. As soon as I rounded the corner, I just RAN to my car. Food- Ordered the large mesclun salad: mixed greens, fresh goat cheese, crushed pecans, fresh strawberries and blueberries served with a homemade balsamic vinaigrette. It was a yummy salad but definitely wasn't a large portion. I've seen small salads bigger than that (i.e. Midway, Theo's, Katie's-just to name a few) Priced at $9, I was honestly hoping it would fill me up. Not even close. Drinks- ordered the special of the night. Name escapes me but it was basically two shots of bourbon served anyway you like. I'm a simple girl so I opted for a bourbon and coke. Bartender was nice, and the drink was pretty stiff. Didn't need another one the entire meal. For $5, thought it was a steal- especially when it was Maker's Mark. Service- horrendous. Server was quite rude with us from the moment we sat down. We went there for a meeting and was expecting 4-5 people. Half of the party showed up first and we were seated for about 10-15 mins. before more arrived. Not once did he ask to refill our drinks (we had all ordered our drinks from the bar but there was an empty beer glass that could have been refilled with some refreshing deliciousness) nor did he ask if we wanted any appetizers. When the final person got there, he immediately asked if we were ready to order. She hadn't even sat down at that point. So we asked for 5 mins. which he huffed then stomped away. When we were done with our food, he asked if we were ready for the bill. No questions of dessert or salad. And even though our party only ended up being 4 people, he still added a gratuity on there! We were all quite surprised since restaurants don't usually add a grat for parties smaller than 6. Not sure why he felt a need to express his frustrations on his tables. So this experience definitely soured this location for me. From here on, think I'm going to stick to the Magazine location. And just get their pizza or that BBQ shrimp po-boy everyone is raving about.
(2)Cubb C.
Update. I have been back 3 times in the last 8 months and its been horrible each time. I dont know whats going on. Looks like they have cut back on quality. And whoever is cooking the pizzas just dont give a damn. The last two times my pizza crust was soggy. I mean saturated, you could squeeze the water out of it literally. I THINK they are putting frozen toppings on and in the cooking process it melts causing the crust to become ...well, just unpleasant. Someone told me that they sent their best workers to the Magazine street location. Probably true since everyone inside now looks really out of it. Im done with this location.
(1)John L. H.
My review of this Slice will be remarkably similar to my review of the Magazine location. Why? Because despite several trips here, I cannot get enough of their BBQ shrimp po boy. This location seems smaller than the Magazine location. There are booths along the wall and three tables up toward the front. The tables in the front are somewhat close together so if the restaurant is full you should expect to hear your neighboring tables conversations. Service was very good. Our server was friendly, had a sense of humor and was very prompt. As far as service goes, it was better at this location. Parking is still an issue, but it is at most uptown restaurants. I actually parked in the Houston's lot even though several signs warned me not to. I don't suggest you do that in case you get towed, I don't want the blame. The real reason you should visit is the BBQ shrimp po boy. Trust me on this. It is so good that you will try and find a way to soak up all of the excess sauce. I used a form and knife to cut my bread at the end, flipped it over and sopped it all up. Use my method, or devise your own, but you will want this sauce. On this visit one of the group ordered a pizza. It looked and smelled amazing. One of these days I will have to actually try the pizza. Until then I will keep enjoying that po boy.
(4)Ed L.
Came here twice for lunch during my 15 day boondoggle in NOLA. 11:45 on a weekday it was half packed and was able to get in and out in 45 minutes. $12 for a slice, a small salad, water and tip! Italian salad was hearty with lots of ingredients. A little salty (lots of olives) for my California taste buds but good enough that I ordered it both times. Between the meat lovers slice and the special slice w shrimp, I would rank the special higher. Toppings were fresh and the thin crust was slightly crunchy just like it should be. The decor is an after thought and the feel is old, but I came here for the food. Interesting tho ... I didn't know that pizza grew on trees as the wall paper in the bathroom suggest!!! I better read Wikipedia more often! 4 stars for the food quality. 3 stars for the service. 2 stars for atmosphere. Would come here again but wouldn't go too much out of my way.
(3)Jack-Daniyel S.
We split a half salad and a medium Siciliana Marinara pizza and it was too much food. The pizza was cooked to perfection with a nice chew to the crust... not to mention to abundance of great fresh peppery arugula that topped the pizza. Service was quick and attentive. Decent selection on tap, as well.
(4)Brent C.
Skip the high priced tourist traps on Bourbon Street and come here instead for delicious, local pizza. The atmosphere is casual but clean, and the pizza has never disappointed us. We come to New Orleans at least once each year, and Slice is always on our short list of restaurants where we have to eat.
(5)Niki M.
After being on the road for 4 hours, the BF and I we were in the mood for some good thin crust pizza. I love Slice and hadn't been in ages, and he had never been, so away we went. The atmosphere at Slice is a little off being that it's a really long and narrow space. That aspect doesn't bother me, it just feels...odd. The service at Slice is always friendly and attentive. No complaints. I really love the pizza at Slice! I LOVE LOVE LOVE how many choices you have that you can order by the slice. We got the standard Pepperoni, the BBG which was a white pizza with smoked bacon, fresh basil, roasted and fresh garlic, the PGA which was procuitto di parma, imported gorgonzola, organic arugula, and the specialty Mac n' Cheese pizza, which had pasta and a ton of bacon and cheese on it. I wasn't sure how that would work for a pizza, but the server said it was amazing. He was right. My boyfriend wasn't a huge fan of the PGA, but he loved the BBG. I thought they were all yummalicious. The prices are extremely reasonable. We got two slices of pizza each, we shared an Italian salad, I had 2 mimosas, and my BF had 2 beers, and our bill was $31! Can I say again how much I love Slice? If I had one complain, the only one would be that I would've liked my pizza to be hotter. I like my food to be insanely hot. Tip: Mimosas are $3.50 all day on Sundays!
(4)Christopher A.
A great dive pizzeria. Twice I got the Sportsman, once as a slice and again as a calzone. This was easily the best slice of pizza I can remember. The garlic bread is also amazing. The staff is very friendly and the atmosphere is rough and kind of hipster-y, but in a good way. This is the type of pizza joint you want to visit. It's also right next door to The Streetcar Inn, so definitely hit it up if you're staying there.
(5)Cathy R.
It's a shame that this place has such mixed reviews. Thankfully I had a great experience. This was our part 1 of 2 for lunch, and we made it apparent to our waitress, and she didn't mind at all. Most other servers look so disappointed to find that we would each only order 1 slice, but she was nice enough to even offer to have each of our slices cut in half so that sharing was easier. We had the PGA and Sportsman's Paradise. I preferred the PGA, as the shrimp on the Sportsman's Paradise seemed to be slightly overcooked to me. I did enjoy the crunch and flavor of the crust. The toppings overall worked well together. If only I lived much closer to this place...I would go at least once a week to take advantage of the fact that they offer their specialty pizzas by the slice!
(4)Leslie M.
It seems rumours of Slice's decline are true. I was informed by the stoned-sounding person who answered the phone that delivery would be 1 hour, and then that their delivery minimum has increased to $15. I was going to get the spaghetti and meatballs out of sheer laziness, as I have before; their pizza has become increasingly flavorless. Oh, well, there's now Dolce Vita!
(3)Cody H.
Love it. They had a macaroni and bacon pizza my son loved. The food was good and fresh. It was nice to sit outside and enjoy our food while people watching. We will go back
(5)Angie T.
This location of Slice Pizzeria is smaller than the one on Magazine Street. It feels pretty crowded and the tables are too close to one another. I don't like that neighboring diners can hear my conversation. However, Slice Pizzeria makes the best BBQ shrimp poboy that I've ever had so I jumped at the chance to have lunch with a few fellow Yelpers here and I'd jump at the chance to do it again. Of course, I ordered the BBQ shrimp poboy and savored every single bite of it. It's really the very best poboy I've ever had of its kind. I also ordered a salad on this visit. Mesclun Salad with balsamic vinergrette...petite greens, goat cheese, pecans, fresh berries. It was delicious as well. I love Slice and honestly if the restaurant was in a cardboard box, I'd still go for that BBQ shrimp poboy. My preferred location is the one on Magazine, though. If you haven't tried that poboy, do yourself a favor and order one. You're welcome.
(4)Marcel B.
Our second time here this week while visiting NOLA. Very close to our hotel so made it easy. But if not it would still be worth it. Large pizza was great for family of four. We are pizza snobs and it didn't disappoint. My daughters had to have the Brookie a la mode and it was very tasty. The staff has been super friendly. A great spot.
(5)Melissa H.
This is such a perfect pizza dive. The pies are spectacular, with high quality toppings and the magic balance of crispy/chewy in their signature crust. As the name suggests, you can buy by the slice. But whole pies are tempting options as well. The creative craft cocktail menu deserves your attention. Standard and special concoctions turn out consistently delicious, visit after visit.

I was expecting some seriously great tasting pizza but was a little disappointed. I'm in the Bay Area, so fresh Amici pizza is the bomb, and I thought Slice would be similar. It was not. We had it delivered, so maybe that was part of it. By the time we got it, from down the street and an hour later, it wasn't hot and the thin crust wasn't very crisp. We asked for extra cheese, but if there was extra cheese, it would have had none without paying for the extra! All in all I cannot recommend it, but I think maybe if you walk in, you might have a better experience.

Friends and acquaintances, I would like to express my outrage. Most of you know me enough to understand that it takes a lot to truly piss me off. Also i have traveled and dined in restaurants in 3/4 of this country. So when I say that I received the absolutely worst service of my life, you know that i am being serious. Now that we got that disclaimer out of the way and you are still reading this.... here is the story. We came into Slices Pizza at 9:30 pm on a Saturday night in New Orleans, we all had about 3 double margaritas and were tipsy. We sat down at a booth and proceed to have a conversation about graphite as an art form. We were loud and there were quite a few fucks and shits thrown into the conversation. Next to us was a family having dinner, the kids at the table were heard to swear like dock workers by one of the members of our group in the bathroom. After we ordered food we were asked to keep the cussing to a low, while a song called big pimping was playing in the background. For those who do not know the song here are some of the lyrics. "You know I - thug em, fuck em, love em, leave em Cause I don't fuckin need em Take em out the hood, keep em lookin good But I don't fuckin feed em First time they fuss I'm breezin Talkin bout, "What's the reasons?" I'm a pimp in every sense of the word, bitch Better trust than believe em In the cut where I keep em til I need a nut, til I need to beat the guts Then it's, beep beep and I'm pickin em up Let em play with the dick in the truck Many chicks wanna put Jigga fist in cuffs Divorce him and split his bucks" Never mind the hypocrisy involved in that request, we toned it down. Our food was delivered to us with polite smile and a fuck you, which is fine. As the common saying at my work goes "fuck em if they can't take a joke". This is where I got pissed off enough to walk out and not pay, which I did not do. We received no silverware, I had to finally walk to the server stand and grab silverware and napkins so we could enjoy our meal. The only time the server walked up to us was when i was extremely vocal about not tipping and walking out on the bill because we received almost no service. The server approached we with an extremely rude "did you want something". And my only regret is being caught of guard by this and saying "no we are fine". At this point I put cash down for my meal and walked the fuck out, because I was too pissed off to do anything else. So thanks you Slices Pizzeria for being the only low point in my otherwise amazing NOLA experience. Please comment on this because I would like to know if I was in the wrong here. And if you are ever in New Orleans please stay away from Slices Pizzeria because this town is full of amazing restaurants with fantastic service and the risk of ruining your experience is not worth the good food they serve.

The first thing I've got to say about the crew at Slice is that at 10:59 pm on a weekday they still took care of me and made a handcrafted pie! None of that "sorry but the kitchen is closed" BS; they were open and took care of me. Thank you, Slice! Now for the pizza... I had a pepperoni and black olive finished with some Parmesan and crushed red pepper. It was delightful! The crust was nice and toasty on the bottom with just a hint of crunch. Who in their right mind wants soggy crust?! I've had lots of good pizza, and some not so good (I don't subscribe to that whole any pizza is good pizza thing), but the pizza from Slice will hit your top 10 for sure, maybe even the #1 spot depending on your personal taste. Give it a shot!

All pizza in New Orleans must be compared to the greatness that is Pizza Delicious and this pizza is ok but not even close. They have more of a selection then PD but the quality and crust are no where near as good. If your uptown this is not a bad option for pizza but for me its just ok.
(3)Thomas D.
Enjoyable pizza joint with good choices. Interesting crust, can't quite putt finger on its uniqueness. It's crispy, like how deep dish can be, but it's more NYC style. I like to stop in with out of town friends after exploring the LGD.
(4)Marc R.
NOLA's Finest Piz joint
(5)Nicole C.
Still have mad love for this place. Went in on Saturday night, about 10, grabbed a table easily. This time we split a medium PGA pizza with prosciutto di parma, imported gorgonzola, organic arugula. Fan-freakin-tastic! I would definitely get this pie again. They say "honey by request" under the description of this pie. Well, I was intrigued, let me try this with honey! Crazy enough, totally worked. They brought a small side of honey, dripped it lightly on my PGA slice, perfect bite! Slice is still my favorite.
(5)Josh F.
A great place to chill out, have a great slice of pizza (or several) and a few beers. This is my "go-to" joint for pizza. The best part about their pizza is that they have a number of selections that can be ordered by the slice, giving people the opportunity to try as many as they can handle in one sitting. I recently tried the salad they have that has salmon on it and it's great too. Twice I've ordered it and it's my new personal favorite. They've updated their menu and removed a few things. My favorite perk to this place is that, when we ask, they will still serve one of our favorite items that they removed.
(4)Christine F.
Their pizza is the best thin crust pizza in town! Salads are great as well. Hope off of the streetcar and get you some pizza!
(5)Ryan B.
Love this place! The meat lovers pizza is my absolute favorite. They deliver too which is amazing.
(5)Katelin N.
Well it's been a year and I did go back, and honestly I was less impressed by this visit. I've just had better pizza, and by better I mean tastier crust, more abundant and evenly spread toppings, not to mention friendlier service.
(3)Jonathan S.
Some of the better pizza in New Orleans. It gets an extra star from me because they sell by the slice. After living in Brooklyn, this is vital.
(4)Thom S.
Oh man. Delicious. I'm going to miss this place when I go back to Virginia tomorrow. I'm here for the second time in as many days. Great atmosphere, DELICIOUS food! I highly recommend the mussels appetizer, the Flying Hawaiian, the Meat Lovers, and the gelato. There is local artwork for sale hanging on the walls if you have a few hundred bucks to kill.
(5)Bethany S.
When you first walk in, Slice is a dank lite hole-in-the-wall. But don't judge a pizzeria by it's digs! Let me first say the prices were great - we went for dinner and got three slices, two half salads, mussels, gelato, and a pitcher of beer for $50 (including tip!). The Mesclun Salad is delicious. Full of color and flavor, it's something you would expect to see in an upscale restaurant. I had the Margherita Pizza - which, despite it's simplicity, had the perfect combination of sauce, cheese, and toppings on a not-too-crispy thin crust. GET THE MUSSELS. If you like shellfish, you will LOVE these - I could have eaten my body weight in this appetizer. The white wine sauce was amazing. Also, half price pitchers on Tuesdays!
(5)David G.
Good food good prices. Wether you want a whole pizza or just a slice anything can be made.
(4)Sonny S.
This place is amazing. It's a local place near the hotel I was staying in. The staff at slice is incredibly friendly and make some great recommendations. This isn't a fast food place, so don't expect your food to come out right after you order. They make everything from scratch. I recommend getting the pizzas and calzones. The pizza are so unique and you can make your own calzones. The place is small, but it's super cozy. Here's what I got: -shrimp and andouille sausage pizza -calzone with ricotta and prosciutto I'll be back again when I'm down in the bayou, lol
(5)William R.
Me and the kids stop by here whenever we are in the area it's small but it's very family friendly. The pizza always fresh the garlic bread us homemade. If you're are by either location I recommend you stop by for a slice..pun intended
(4)Natalie H.
This is the perfect crust, perfect fresh toppings, perfect drink specials pizza joint in all of my rotation of pizza options. I appreciate that the "by the slice" option is quite possibly the same size of pizza as a "small" anywhere else. One slice is perfect for lunch and I like to pair it with a salad. I love the BBG pizza which is a white pizza with bacon, basil, and garlic. The four cheese margherita is also delicious if you're looking for something a little more traditional. The best best part is that you can add on any extra toppings you like TO A SLICE! You can't even do that in New York! Bah! If you're hankering for pizza during the football season they have a weekly pizza in honor of the opposing team so you can EAT DAT and we all feel like a bit of a winner. You're welcome Drew! I love you, Slice. Thank you for fulfilling all of my pizza desires.
(4)Katrina S.
Dear Gluten Free Friends.... Get ready to embrace your love and lust for thin crust pizza with fresh toppings once again! Made in house and fresh weekly, Slice makes the best gluten free pizza crust hands down. Yes, even good enough that your gluten loving friends will embrace sharing this medium pie with you without hesitation. Don't overlook the delicious salads with homemade salad dressings that will make you feel like the woes of the world have slightly melted. The shrimp appetizer is deliciously... really I've never seen anyone walk away here hungry. Oh, and if you are thirsty - don't worry the full stocked bar runs great specials and makes a good every day cocktail. To top it all off the staff has always been friendly with unique personalities providing smiles to customers.
(4)Jill C.
Everything I've had here is REALLY good...time tested and grown up approved...BBQ shrimp is my favorite, however, the meatballs are delightful as well... The pizza is thin crust...which is a comfort and tradition from the NE that was a really good call on Slice's part...YES! Still awesome....staff works hard and enjoys where they are... Which says something.
(5)Girlie G.
Reasonably priced but the pizza didn't have much flavor, very plain, needs more seasonings. Rude on the phone, stingy on Ranch. I wouldn't eat here again.
(1)Cristen F.
This is my favorite pizza place in town. I love the crust - not too thick, not too thin. It's made with part cornflour or cornmeal so is crispier than most crusts, which I prefer. The sauce is fantastic and there is almost anything you'd consider putting on a pizza for toppings. I generally go with the Greek add chicken or meatball with peppers. The meatballs are wonderful. It's also a good choice for lunch to get a slice with a small side salad.
(5)Katherine M.
Slice used to be one of my favorite quick meals in NOLA, but I've found that the quality of pies has been a bit inconsistent. Slice's pies now seem to all have a very thick, chewy crust that's a far cry from the thinner-crusted pies they used to churn out on a regular basis. Overdoing the cheese and undercooking pizzas also seems to be an issue, further complicated when you've added toppings. I've found that individual slices are often an acceptable remedy, as they seem more thoroughly cooked and less heavy on the cheese. You can also order your pie on the side of well done, and they'll be happy to accommodate your request. That all being said, Slice's sauce is among my favorites, and they'll usually offer you some on the side if you're a tomato fanatic like I am. The specialty pizzas offer great and slightly unexpected combinations of toppings that turn out to be better than imagined, especially the bacon, basil, and garlic pie. The mesclun is my favorite salad, with always-fresh berries, walnuts, and goat cheese, although the quality of the greens isn't always the greatest. I wish they still offered the balsamic vinaigrette with this salad, as now you're left to add your own combo of oil and vinegar. Lastly, Slice has wonderful happy hour specials, and it's a great place to gather with a medium-sized group after work.
(3)Rene D.
I couldn't face one more conversation re: dinner. After a long day of work & school, standing over a stove was the last thing I was worried about. Pizza to the rescue! Slice offered everything I needed: hot, fresh pizza, ready and waiting for me when I arrived within the timeframe I was given over the phone. It was a little soggy by the time I got it home (5 minutes?), it tasted as good as it looked. But 3 stars? Well, I think the Magazine location offers a better pizza and higher quality, in both appearance ans taste. That's too bad, since this location is so close to home.
(3)Michael P.
So while visiting New Orleans, I decided to grab some pizza around the corner from my hotel. Little did I know that I would be getting some of the Best Pizza around. Living in California, I have found 2 good pizza places that deserve a good yelp review. 2 in 28 years. However, the first pizza place I walk into in New Orleans happens to be this place, some of the best pizza I have had. Well Done Slice. Well Done. *slow clap*
(5)Brian D.
Slice does both standard and eccentric pizza offerings by the pie or slice. I had 2 slices: Andouille and shrimp, prosciutto Gorgonzola and arugula. Excellent, both. The Greek pizza was also calling. The daily special included a salmon with capers. Notes - Nobody working there was over 30, so it had a young, artistic, hip vibe. Really relaxed and fun to watch young artisans (the cooks) do pizza so well. - Wine menu included around 20 selections by the glass or bottle, which ran $24-$44/bottle. - Full bar with 3-5 selections of each spirits, ranging from well to super premium. - Service was excellent at 6pm on a Thursday, not terribly crowded, but constant flow of customers. - If you're a tourist, its right off of the St. Charles Street Car line next to VooDoo BBQ (also good). Perfect place for a light lunch. I would follow it up with a stop by Creole Creamery, a bit further up the St Charles line, off of Prytania in the UGD. - Hours 11 am to 11 pm
(5)Dave W.
What's not to like. Right next door to my hotel, full bar, ice cold beer & a damn decent slice. Stoked. Man I love this town.
(4)Paula E.
I know this is going to seem unlikely but believe it or not, Slice is probably one of my favorite restaurants in New Orleans.... yeah, I know right... a pizza joint *rolls eyes* But there's something about this place that just does it for me. I love the decor, it's casual, modern and comfortable and they always showcase the work of really cool local artists (mostly photographers). The menu is varied (not like most of your pizza joints that only give typical calzone/pizza options) and I have to say one of my favorite dishes is the Mesclun Salad, IT'S OUT OF THIS WORLD!! A sweet the mixture of berries, with goat cheese and vinaigrette, absolutely blissful, tastes like seduction. The Slices are huge and super reasonably priced considering they use fresh ingredients. My favorite night is half-priced bottle of wine Tuesday nights, and they serve Famega! (a delightful green grape wine that goes really well with pizza) As if this weren't enough, if you are a hipster like myself you'll love all the eye candy that works here (boys and girls alike ;)
(5)Danielle S.
I came to Slice on the recommendation of a friend and I'm not a pizza aficionado by any means unless it's out of a box but this is damn good pizza. I luv that it's thin crust and you can get it by the slice and these aren't a small slice. I've never had pizza in New York City but I've been told it's just as good. Now, my only complaint is that the bartenders (the females) don't ever seem to be eager to wait on other females. Word of advise, we usually tip better than men. But overall, a great place to grab a slice.
(4)Britta M.
Yum!!! Nice, casual and great pizza.
(5)Sarah E.
Exceptional pizza! I particularly like the special with everything on it. The pies are large and the toppings are fresh.
(4)Laura C.
I love slice. I love slice for their white pizza with basil. I love slice for their giant pieces at small prices. I love slice for their italian cream sodas. I love slice for being open lunch and dinner. Yep. This pizza is done with flavorful ingredients and the white pizza is the closest I can get to the way we always had it on visits to jersey. Hush... the white pizza and hoagies in jersey are fanastic (and let's not forget about water ice or the fact the italian ice is a completely different animal) even if the jersey shore crew makes me either want to murder them or blind myself in order to forget what a bad name they give the place.... Umm... anyway.... I've never been disapointed in the fare or with getting on of those wodden booths in the much quiter back room. Being up in the front is always an adventure too being that close to the open pizza staff always makes for a great dining experience. Go... enjoy yourself... relax... this is what real pizza done well is all about.
(5)Wendy P.
Always on point with service. Great bar (even for non drinkers) to sit, socialize and eat. Music selection is eclectic. There's no telling what will be up next. Salads are wonderful. I love the arugula. No matter what you put on your slice or pie, you won't be disappointed. Check out the mussels, they're yummy. Don't skip desert.
(4)Gregory R.
I adore Slice, and I go there every time I get the opportunity. It's nice to sit in the restaurant and watch all the people come and go. Service inside is very good. When you have a Slice craving but can't sit a spell, you can always pick up your order to go. Favorite pizza: Prosciutto Arugula Gorgonzola. The pastas are also very well cooked and delicious. I highly recommend the aglio olio pasta.
(5)Nicole F.
I love that you can order pizza by the slice. I usually get 2 completely different slices, and a fresh salad. Their salads are large and delicious. They also make great sangria and Mojitos. We go to this location a good bit.
(4)Rodney H.
This is my go-to restaurant for anytime I want to eat out. I'm pretty sure my wife gets tired of me always suggesting we go. I never get sick of it and don't think I ever will. The pizza is delicious. $2 PBRs can't be beat. $5 Abita Amber pitchers during happy hour. Hip atmosphere. Everything about this place is great, especially the price. I take all of my friends who visit from out of town here. I'm pretty sure they're getting tired of it too. I don't understand how.
(5)Alan S.
Less than $10 for a filling, tasty and unique lunch. Winning! Two slices of pizza was plenty to fill me up. I went with the special of the day which including salmon, capers, a poached egg, and goat cheese on a white slice. It was one of the most interesting pizza experiences I've ever had. It was like Jewish breakfast on a pizza. It was good. My other slice was one of their regular specialties, the sportsman's paradise. This slice included shrimp, sausage, corn among the toppings. A totally different taste experience from my first slice but also good. Not only did I enjoy the food, I enjoyed the experience of all the flavors and being able to have some rather unique items on a pizza. I highly recommend this place even if you have to make the 20-25 minute hike from the french quarter (or take the St. Charles street car if you are lazy!).
(5)Lindsay H.
I'm pretty pumped that I'll get a free glass of wine with my next check in. I wish it were beer, but hey I'll give it away. Some of the gals and I like to gab here on Mondays and pretend like we are on Sex in the City. (I'm Charlotte.) We like it because the bill is usually pretty low and place is quiet enough to hear ourselves blab. They offer 1/2 price appetizers and beer and wine specials on Mondays until 6pm, so we pop in after work. Even with regular menu prices you can get a filling slice of pizza for around $4 and a salad with berries for around $3.50. An added bonus? The waitstaff is attentive, friendly, and kinda cute.
(4)D V.
Been here twice so for with one of my kids. Loved it. Simple slices of pizza - delicious.
(4)heather t.
The pizza is really great but the staff has problems with things like taking orders and bringing the orders to you. The bartender told me he was too busy to make drinks when I asked for a cocktail at the bar while I waited the 20 minutes for our waiter to come to the table. Later the waiter rolled his eyes at me when I asked for a meat-free slice of the 'spinach and artichoke' pizza - it had arrived coated in bacon. I don't think it is unreasonable to assume that the spinach and artichoke pizza will be meat free, but apparently I am a huge pain in the ass. I would rather go somewhere else where I don't have to feel like it was an honor to receive food that I ordered and would eventually pay for.
(1)Erin H.
Found this place after looking at Yelp reviews and were not disappointed. We ate here while riding the St. Charles streetcar. This was our first stop before heading to the Garden District and the Audubon Park. I had a muffaletta and my boyfriend had a slice of the shrimp and andouille sausage pizza. The muffaletta was awesome and not overly huge or out of control in size. The pizza divine - tasty and unique with the special regional flavors. The service was great and they kept the ice tea coming - refills are key. The decor was comfortable and cool and the location was perfect. Would definitely go back.
(4)Ryan P.
I had high hopes for this place but was disappointed by my lunch here. I got a slice of the andouille and shrimp pizza and veggie pizza. The shrimp was had an off flavor to it and I could really only eat about two bites. The andouille wasn't anything special. The veggie was just okay, almost boring. The dough had very little flavor. The waitress didn't even ask us how our food was or why 3/4 of my pizza was uneaten. Check out the far superior Louisiana Pizza Kitchen instead.
(2)Yelping Drunk X.
So, like every fucking restaurant in garden/uptown that's not bar food closes at 9 on Sunday, where are we Dayton, oh?!? So me and a friend decide to walk to slice from my place. On the way there we encounter a man who is clearly dressed from a restaurant job (probably a stupid restaurant that closes at 9) who "has to get to DEEP Kenner" and his "friends car overheated" so he needs two dollars for bus fare. First of all what bus goes to Kenner, second of all, maybe you should have asked a coworker I have no cash, so he walk past us and calls me a "fucking bitch." Good start to the meal! We sit down and are Informed mimosas and bloodys are half off. AMAZING. Our waiter is nice and very alt, in fact the whole bar crowd was alt. I could def see our waiters moose knuckle. Pizza was totes dec! (Not as good as New York) Bloodys were pretty good, could use a slice of bacon in them but had okra!
(4)Helen N.
My GO-TO pizza place in NOLA. You can't get pizza any better than this. It's impressive and the combinations of pizzas they have are excellent. The name of the establishment represents how they sell their pizzas, by the SLICE unlike most places. Upon entering you seat yourself and the open kitchen is great actually. There are tables in the front, booths in the middle and a bar in the back somewhat like a pub type atmosphere. The wait staff is always friendly and prompt. You can never leave here unhappy!
(5)Meghan B.
Yummy Pizza - great service - good prices
(5)Jack W.
Fantastic pizza!!! I have tried pizza from all over the USA and Slice is definitely on my top 10 list.
(5)Allison S.
I was in New Orleans for business and didn't want to deal with the craziness of the French Quarter for dinner. After reading a few reviews, I picked Slice. Service was good and very friendly. I started with the mesclun salad with berries and goat cheese. It was excellent. I could have just eaten that. What I liked about Slice is that you could order individual slices -- and it's not just a heated piece of pizza with toppings thrown on top. I had the proscuitto/arugula and the fresh. Both was quite tasty. Would definitely return.
(4)Meg B.
Food was pretty good. Do yourself a favor and try one of their Popsicles. I tried the cheesecake blueberry one and my husband kept trying to steal it!! Atmosphere was chill and the staff was young and tatooed.
(3)Benjamin G.
Found this place when I was searching for a quick lunch spot. I had a lunch of pizza and salad, and I have to admit the food was really good. This place has a really great feel to it and the staff is super nice and attentive. I think the location is in a great spot being right on the street car line. Slice has a really nice selection of items and the ingredients are really fresh and tasty.
(4)Grace T.
We went in as a group of 11. The price turned out really good like 80+ and we got to try many different flavors. Our favorite is the Hawaii one. The restaurant is also very cute and special. The waitresses are friendly and with a good service. Definitely recommend to go there if you are visiting New Orleans!
(4)Vincent L.
Amazing food and it's priced well. Service was great and the waiter was honest about how much was needed to fill you up. Half salad+slice or two slices
(5)Cristy C.
This place is so much better than the one on Magazine Street - service wise. I can't tell you how many times I've been disappointed or been given "attitude" at their other location. Unfortunately, the Magazine location is just a few blocks away from my house and I purposefully make the trip to this location because I KNOW they won't disappoint. My favorite dishes here are the Aglio Oglio pasta and their cheese pizza. I've had a few different dishes, but I find myself ordering these same things over and over again.
(5)teeny t.
Very cute, delicious, cheap, AND they were playing awesome music! Couldn't ask for more. :-)
(5)Jackie F.
I ordered a pizza to go and it was DELISH! It was quick and ready to go when I picked it up. Def making this my pizza spot! Next time I'm dining in!!!!
(5)Nicole K.
This place was FANTASTIC!!! I started with a caesar salad and then had the BBG calzone with grilled chicken added. So so amazing!! I was so glad we came here on our last night of vacation.
(5)Erwin B.
Love it! Got the bacon, basil, and garlic slice and that topped my NOLA food trip. This place was pretty much my default restaurant while vacationing in New Orleans. Slice Pizzeria was very simple, fresh, and you are blasted with unforgettable pizza aromas, tasty brewed beers, and Southern hospitality. If i was there at this very moment i would purchase: Prosciutto, Gorgonzola, and Arguala; bacon, basil, and garlic; trucker calzone; and the creme brulee! NOTE: This place stayed open before hurricane Issac smacked St. Charles st. and that is a 5/5 in my books. Many stores/restaurants closed early or were understaffed.
(5)Shercole K.
Every chance I get to take someone here for lunch, I seem to make it happen now. This is my go-to lunch pizza place. Yummy fresh pizza for cheap! You literally get one slice and can be full from it. That just doesn't happen much. Plus if its a place my boyfriend will actually eat and have nothing bad to say about the place must be AWESOME. Best Time to go is in the week during the 11-1pm range for a great lunch. One slice will cost you pretty much 5 bucks different specialties.
(5)Byron J.
Our first time here, sat outside on st. Charles avenue. Spaghetti and meatballs were delicious. But the PGA pizza was awesome... The arugulla added a surprising crunch and the bitterness balanced with the Gorgonzola.... U gotta try it
(4)Paul D.
A great little pizza spot. Out front they will have a few tables set up outside. Some tables inside, and booths that go along the back. The food comes out fast, but the table service for drink refills is a little slow. I got my app before I could get a second refill of ice tea. Though not a big deal. For an app, I had cheesy bread. Just garlic bread with mozzarella and marinara dipping sauce. Simple, but good. I had two slices of Prosciutto, Gorgonzola, and Arugula pizza. Again, really good and freshly made. They also have a small bar with a nice selection of beers. A place to look for if in the Garden District.
(4)Lilly T.
Ah, Slice Pizzeria :) Slice will probably always be one of my favorite pizza places in New Orleans. They use fresh ingredients, their pizza dough is the perfect middle ground- not too thick,not too thin, and their toppings list is expansive. Also, their bruschetta is freaking delicious!
(4)Vanessa M.
Arrived in NOLA for my 40th and we were staying at the Avenue garden Hotel next door. 5 of us just flew in and were starving! We were supposed to go to Willie Maes for the fried chicken but there was a line wrapped around the building. So we decided to check this place out because it was convenient and it was worth it. One thing I like was you could get ANY type of pizza they had for a slice! Most places have limited selections when it comes to the per slice. The pizza was pretty freakin awesome! Ny Style like I love it and full of flavor! We were so impressed we managed to squeeze this place in a 2nd time. The second time we didnt have pizza. Garlic Bread was great. Mushroom Crostini was very good, Caprese Salad was decent.. The pasta was a heaping portion and filling but it was kind of bland. However, the item I was least thrilled with was the bread pudding.. it was definitely cake not bread pudding. The only reason I wasn't impressed is because I was expecting bread pudding. For NOLA I expect an overabuncance of flavor so for the pasta portion I was left a bit in the "meh" category but the pizza.. SPOT ON!
(4)Roxanne C.
This was my first time here, and I have to say I'm a fan. The food is good and affordable. I like that you can buy pizza by the slice. You can also either get a half of a pasta dish or a whole pasta dish, which I liked because I wasn't that hungry. I also thought the staff seemed friendly. Parking seemed to be an issue since you have to park on the street, but I was dropped off so it wasn't a problem for me. I will definitely come back here.
(4)Suzanne A.
I didn't try their pizza, but their calzone was just ok. I won't be going back for the calzone, but maybe for their pizza
(3)Shane F.
First time I've tried slice ill absolutely be coming back again. Kill pizza, killer meatballs full stomach can't go wrong
(5)Mark L.
Loved it. I typically prefer thicker crust but this crust is awesome. Great, low jet atmosphere and great friendly service. Gotta try it.
(4)Kelley M.
What I liked most about Slice, is as its name suggests, you can order pizza by the slice. At $3.75, the slices are pretty reasonably priced, allowing you to try a couple of different specialties. I had a slice of spinach, sun dried tomato, & artichoke and a slice of the special. While I thought the "base" of the pizza was perfect (think thin, New York style crust), the pizza was kind of flavorless despite all of the toppings. If I return, I think I'll simply go with a plain cheese slice and hopefully get to enjoy the pizza for what it really is. Why two stars down? As I've already mentioned, the pizza wasn't fantastic. I ordered a caesar salad as a starter and the lettuce was fairly brown and wilted. The boy asked what beer was on draught, ordered, and received a bottled beer. I ordered my slice without onions and peppers and it came with both. So, in short, the service could have been a bit better. I'll definitely go back to Slice for another try, but I won't be in a rush to return.

UNIQUE, FRESH, and LOCAL! We've been going to Slice since they opened many years ago. Their slices are huge, and the ingredients are really fresh! Let the staff know you aren't some snob and they are very friendly! I love getting penne pasta with pesto sauce and salmon (it is NO LONGER on the menu, but if you ask nicely - they will do it for ya!). 1/2 price mimosas on Sundays are a treat!!!! LOVE this place!

Bad experience. 2 hours for delivery, cold pizza and didn't get the order correct. Called back, they didn't answer. Warmed pizza, not good at all. Don't understand the hype. Waste of money. Try Reginellis , better service and food.

This is my favorite pizza joint in all of New Orleans. My friend doesn't like pizza, but once she had a slice of the Flying Hawaiian, she's been addicted ever since! I have had the Meat Lover's, Flying Hawaiian, Specialty D-Luxe (MY FAVE) and Sportsman's Paradise. Usually, I order a 14" half Flying Hawaiian and half Specialty D-Luxe. They're really good about half/half pizzas. Their delivery is fast and their pizza is always so juicy! I like that I'm not gnawing on too much bread because it's thin crust. I like the atmosphere of the place as well, the service is fast and friendly - reminds me of my favorite pizza place in MN: Pizza Luce.

Cool space, good pizza with New Orleans flavor.

I really love this place and look forward to returning to eat here with my family once I visit in a few weeks. This is the better location as far as I am concerned, just has a better vibe about it than the one on Magazine St, and I think its due to the lack of tourists that are in there. Has a more laid back feel and a lot less children crying or screaming, always a good thing. It's family friendly though. I love the art work and the staff. The pizza is always phenomenal and you really just can't go wrong with whatever you get. Definitely recommend them to all my friends and family.

Simply awesome!!!! I would of gave 5 stars but the Sangria was bitter. (You know alcohol is a worth a whole star!) The food, the service, the wait time.... All of it, SIMPLY AWESOME! If u haven't tried this place you have been letting life pass you by! Did I forget to mention the prices were very affordable. My pregnant friend gave it 2 thumbs up! I will definitely be back with more friends! I wonder if they host events.... I'll find out and get back to you all! What more must I say for you to trust and believe that this place is SIMPLY AWESOME (in my slow motion voice!)?

So when i visited NOLA last, my friend wanted me to try Slice and see how it compared to Pizza or NY/NJ. While i still prefer my home slice, Slice is able to stand up on its own. The Pizza here is really good. I was pretty impressed and there combinations of flavors were pretty awesome. I like that they serve Italian sodas, disappointed that they were out of mango, but every place I've every been to that has mango is always out of it when I order it, so I'm not to disappointed and this just adds to my argument that the elusive mango is just a farfetched fable to get people like me into their shops. Getting back from my tangent, slice has some awesome food and defiantly would be willing to come back again to try some more of their awesome food.
(4)Elizabeth C.
The pizza's pretty good, but we were disappointed the last time we came and found the bar was (physically) miniaturized. They still have drinks, but you can't sit at the bar anymore. The ingredients are fresh and tasty! It's not my favorite place, but I won't refuse to go here. Not sure about small kids or groups... It's loud enough that loud young kids you might avoid taking other places would go virtually unnoticed. The building is a bit narrow, so I can't really imagine how they fit groups in together... I wouldn't go with a group of more than four.

My oh my, this place was soo delicious!! And definitely took me by suprise. I did NOT want to eat pizza in NOLA (Um...can i just try a billion different jambalays and gumbos please?) but, it was 1-2 blocks from our hotel (the Prytania), it was out 4th night, it was raining, and we were getting ready for our last night on Bourbon. So, it made sense to stay near the area. Imagine my suprise when we entered this classy yet comfortable (think brick walls, dim and moody lighting, with an intimate bar immediately greeting us upon entrance) pizzeria, with pizza slices in moderate prices ($3.75) and yummy smells? We got take out so we could eat in the comforts of our warm hotel room. Their pizza slices were huuge with tons of toppings gracing them...and incredibly flavorful. (would have expected nothing less from NOLA!) What we got: (ingredients straight from their website) -Shrimp & Andouille (Caramelized Onions, Yellow Corn, Diced Tomato, and Green Onion) Anything with caramelized onions..and you have my heart. Perfect balance of the greasiness of the cheese, sausage, and shrimp with the fresh veggies...delicious. -Greek (Artichoke Hearts, Imported Feta, Kalamata Olives, and Red Onions ~optional Anchovies) um...yum? -BBQ shrimp: a kind local (who claims he is there most nights for a beer and pizza since he lives a block away) recommended this dish to us. Upon opening it up when we got back to our hotel room, we were slightly disappointed. It looked like a slightly upgraded version of the po'boy we had eaten earlier. Buttered bread, a few pieces of cooked shrimp, fresh parsley, and a small container of liquid-y bbq sauce. HOWEVER, this sauce was to DIE for! It was incredibly different: not sweet and thick like most bbq sauces...brothy...but full of savory flavor with a kick at the end. (we ended up dipping our crusts into this sauce...yum) All in all, this was one of my best meals in NOLA. and what a suprise! Def recommend :)

This is the original location of Slice which has started to expand to other locations. This location is nearest to my house and the most convenient to me. If all your in the mood for is one slice of pizza this is probably the best place to get a highly customized slice to fit your hearts desire. The pizza here is ok to me and I like the availability of all the topping choices. I still rarely end up here as when I'm in the mood for pizza I usually go to Theo's, Pizza Delicious, or the $5 pint and a slice deal at New York Pizza. This is certainly a decent place for a slice but I always need more than one slice!
(3)Joi B.
Lots of pizza bang for your buck! I'm the sort who, when faced with all kinds of options, can never make up her mind as to what kind of pizza she wants. I want 'em all!!! The beauty of Slice is that they allow you three ordering options: by the slice, a small pie or a large pie. And you can have virtually *any* style of pizza you want from gourmet slices (Mushroom Explosion, spinach/artichoke/sundried tomatoes) to create-your-own. Last night I started with a perfect arugula salad (size "small" is plentiful) and then decided on one special slice (spinach/artichoke/tomato which comes on their white pie) and one red slice with kalamata olives and mushrooms. Let me just say that I'm going to be a diehard for their red pies. I generally prefer red pies anyway (I'm a saucy gal) and Slice's sauce is great! Taste/texture is similar to a corner pizza joint in NY, but of course a little bit different. I mean, the ingredients are extremely fresh and they are *not* shy with the basil (love). I was not as in love with the white slice because it was very dry, but still tasty nonetheless. Service is super sweet and speedy. Casual, but charming atmosphere (read: not fast food-like) Oh and get a load of those drink specials!!! Seems like there is something different and awesome every day from Sunday Mimosas to Saturday Bloody Marys. Weekday evening specials include 1/2 price bottles and cocktails.
(4)Moira R.
The two ladies at the table will have THE TRUCKER! The trucker? Oh yes, the trucker. A gigantic meat/ cheese stuffed calzone that can't be matched. Each bite is a delicious melody of pork goodness. Okay, so you're veg, that's cool too. They have an equally large, veg stuffed mate called the roasted garden. If you love garlic they have you covered. The last time I had this one I swear there must have been an entire head of garlic inside. I smelled like garlic for at least an entire day after I ate that thing. Ops The pizza of course is good as well. The crust is thin and the toppings are piled on. I haven't had a bad slice yet. The service is always speedy enough. The atmosphere is comfortable and modern, a step up from the every day pizza place. However, caution, don't leave your children unattended or, according to the sign above the bar, they will feed them espresso and give them a puppy. ;)
(5)Amanda W.
I love this location because it is three blocks from my house. Hell yeah! Went here with my parents today for a quick lunch. Pizza was delicious as usual, as was my mesclun salad (fruit+greens+vinaigrette+walnuts, yay!). Our waiter was fast and friendly'personable. They have great drink specials, with a full bar and a selection of beer and wine. My dad had the mac and cheese, and gobbled that up pretty fast, so it must have been good. Slice is the place I go to when I want a consistently good meal at a reasonable price with friendly service. I've never had a bad experience here. Try the pga, it's my favorite :)
(5)Matt R.
2 of us stopped by around 1:30 on Sunday afternoon. Staff was friendly and welcoming. I had the cheese calzone with chicken. Good size, nice crust, but the cheese in the middle was still cold, so 1 star lost for that. Definitely a good value for the price, and steps away from the St Charles Ave streetcar stop
(4)Whitney J.
My go-to pizza spot in the city... I definitely prefer the St. Charles location over the one on Magazine because the staff (as well as the pizza) seem different for some reason. My suggestions on pies/slices: Fresh, Arugula/Prosciutto/Gorgonzola.... or a slice of cheese/onion.
(4)Chris R.
Since I've lived in NOLA, pretty much everyone I know said that the best pizza ever is at Slice. Our verdict? Not so much. Maybe all the friend hype raised my expectations. I liked the crust on the pie, but the Mrs. didn't. The sauce was too salty, and too spicy. I admit, I'm pretty hard on pizza, as I grew up on "real pizza" in the northeast. I also ordered a meatball appetizer, and my lady ordered the chocolate chip bread pudding. The meatballs were horrible, but the dessert was damn good. The service was excellent, which made up for some of the food's shortcomings, but I doubt we'll be back.
(3)Jacinta W.
This place is awesome with a capital A! The calzone was superb. Way to big to eat in one sitting for me. And the chocolate bread pudding was a great way to end the evening. You have y to check this place out for pizza when visiting NOLA.
(4)Jamie S.
Not impressed. It took 1.5 hours to get our pizza delivered and when it finally came we were pretty disappointed. We ordered the flying Hawaiian. We basically were brought a bacon and jalepeno pizza. Little to no red sauce, barely any pineapple or chicken. Crust was bland and dry. Heard a lot of great things about Slice over the last couple years but after this experience we will not be back. So many better pizza options out there! That being said... You know what they say about bad pizza.
(1)Kristen A.
YUMMMM!!! I love that you can order by the "slice" and choose anyyyy toppings you want!! It's basically subway meets a pizza joint. I had a slice with artichoke, corn, spinach, peppers, and garlic! Super yum and fair prices, and you don't feel like puking after like Pizza Hut. WIN!
(5)Ross D.
yuummmm
(5)Mai W.
Chose this place for dinner since it's close to where I was staying. Ordered shrimp bisque-very tasty! Small salad (with goat cheese, strawberries, blueberries, pecan & balsamic dressing)-good and the BBQ shrimp appetizer-very good but a bit salty. Overall would go again to try the pizza.
(4)Alice H.
Attention parents, Slice may just be your salvation, too. If your kids are like mine and child A and child B are basically as compatible as Jack Sprat and his wife, waste money no more! Slice lets you order by the slice almost any kind of pizza you can think of. Gorgonzola and arugula for you, perhaps, while the kids eat toppings that don't involve compromise or negotiation. Add to this a full bar with drink specials, and you might just leave feeling relaxed and happy. After eating at a restaurant. With your kids. Crazy, right? The pizza is quite yummy, and the list of toppings is impressive by our admittedly compromised pizza standards in this city. When we were there last Friday, sangria was on special, so my friend and I got a red and a white. We both agreed that the white was slightly tastier but that the red was a strong contender. For dessert we tried the chocolate pear and the dreamsicle popsicles. Yum, and plenty of real fruit for a lower guilt:indulgence ratio than most desserts. The only drawback to the place is the hassle of trying to negotiate a parking spot around here at dinner time. But with just that minor annoyance, I'll definitely be back.
(4)Kate S.
After looking for a good restaurant literally ALL over new orleans we stumbled on this place after taking the streetcar down into the Garden District. It was really good. They had an awesomely refreshing drink called the Riverboat Captain and their pizza was pretty good. I liked the PGA a lot. I definitely recommend making a trip out here for this.
(4)Elaine M.
This is by far my second most favoritest pizza place in town! Not really so much for the pizza but the service, the prices, and the presentation of the food are all top. Not to mention, the last table we sat at had a great picture of local musician Clint Maedgen behind it, whom I adore. So that made me happy! Compared to every restaurant in New Orleans, the caprese salad is the freshest (and prettiest)! I love that you have the option of building your own slice, which is rare. The wine/beer options are pretty fantastic too. I appreciate the fact that the kitchen is so open and visible so nothing is hidden & you can rest assured that all your food is handled properly etc... Needless to say, if I do not feel like making the trip to the Bywater for my #1 favorite pizza in town, this is truly the only other pizza place that makes the cut in my book.
(4)Kathryn G.
Amazing salads, pizza and ravioli are also excellent. I went during the boil water advisory, and a brief (1 minute or less) blackout and the service was STILL AWESOME. The atmosphere is great!
(5)Jonathan S.
After a long day of walking around NOLA with my wife and our 3 kids under the age of 8, we were dog tired and in need of sustenance. We took the trolley car down St Charles and I used Yelp to find us some pizza along the way. Walking in, we had more than enough room to fit our stroller without taking it down, which is always nice. The place was fairly empty for a Sunday afternoon so we walked to the back and took a seat. The service was great, got us plenty of water right away and took our order. Our XL pepperoni was delicious as expected and satisfied everyone at the table. Our waitress recommended the bread pudding as a local favorite so we went in for that as well. It was a bit burnt and covered up with sugar toppings but we still polished it off. All in all a solid find for some wary tourists looking for a slice of pizza.
(4)Oliver D.
It's as good as I remember it back in college. Hot and crispy crust. Solid supreme pizza is a staple. Plus the tomato basil soup was delicious. We also ordered Chocolate chip bread pudding...get dat!
(4)Suzanne C.
One of the lone voices of dissent, owing almost exclusively to personal taste. Friends, I am not a fan of the thin crust pizza. Slice loves the thin crust pizza. You may already see where we differ. It's not that Slice is bad. It's not that I will avoid this place. It's just that I don't love it the way everyone else does, when I have Cafe Roma even closer to my house (with delivery) offering me the same amazing toppings on a crust I prefer for less moola. Yes, Slice is fresh. Yes, Slice is interesting. Yes, Slice is full of hipsters. Yes, Slice has sexy waitstaff. Yes, Slice has a good bar. yes, Slice makes amazing salads. But no, Slice isn't my favorite. I also don't love the crowd of clove-smokers who hang out in front of Slice and try to kick my bike tires when I'm taking to the sidewalks in the dark. Not cool, guys! Not cool! Accessibility notes: Cramped for folks with mobility devices. Can get loud at peak hours. Bathrooms are tiny. No braille menu or signage. Booths can be a tight squeeze.
(2)Vicky L.
I went here over the Halloween weekend, and it was a great experience. I thought this place would be packed and service would bad, but it wasn't. My group of 4 was promptly seated, the waitress was sweet and our food came out hot and well made. I have been told about their banana bread pudding, that it was a must try. When I went, they didn't have that, they had a plum bread pudding instead. Many months later, I still remember how delicious it was.
(4)Karen Z.
A good salad, tasty slice and reasonable price. Had the bacon, basil and garlic pizza (gracias, Yelpers!) and it was great. Hip atmosphere. A few tables on the sidewalk. We opted for outdoor seating because the indoor section was too cold. If I lived here, I'd probably become a regular here. :)
(4)Brandon M.
Haven't been here in forever but every time I come the food is always excellent...I got the Special D-Luxe slice...only need one...
(4)Dustin D.
This place is amazing. You'd never guess this place would be so cool from looking at it from the outside. There is much more seating than you would think and so far I've yet to be disappointed by any of the pizza we've ordered.
(5)Sheri M.
My caprese salad was barely edible, Moz and tomatoes were hard, the balsamic vinaigrette was like tar and was blech. The calzone, in my spawn 1's opinion: "Meh" and I quote spawn 2: "I only ate 2 slices of the pizza b/c I was starving, I didn't like it and the crust was so thin all the topping fell off everytime I tried to eat it." I've been here before and things were better, I'll give it another go and hopefully I can up the stars on my next visit.
(2)Emily Z.
Typical of a tourist trap craphole, although the Slice on Magazine is great. Ingredients seem above average but a lazy crew works this one. Slice of pizza was really old, they threw my drink away when I went to the bathroom, little things that say "I don't care and I don't have to." So many better places nearby.
(2)Ashley C.
I visited Slice wanting some good pizza while in NOLA for a conference. The service was fantastic - just the right amount of attention. I was sitting by myself, but my server didn't make me feel like I was "taking up a table" I ordered a surprise calzone and it was absolutely delicious. I waited about 25 minutes for it, which just made me convinced they really did just make it. It had sausage, tomatoes, an unbelievable amount of cheese, spinach, and more. It was a perfect size - I got full about 3/4ths of the way through. I eavesdropped on the servers and cooks who chatted an equal mix of business and real life. They seemed to really enjoy working together, but ever let work go undone. Reasonable prices, great atmosphere. If you're looking for a great place to grab a pizza I highly recommend Slice.
(5)Eileen Z.
I'm still a fan! my "go to" place for a night out with my daughter. I can feel like a grown up and still go to a place that she will love. A great night out options. I LOVE the arugula salad its one of the best IMO. a bowl overflowing with fresh arugula a splash of lemon and olive oil and salt and pepper with a few slices of pecorino, just hits the spot for me. For pizza she gets the cheese slice and I get the prosciutto, gorgonzola, and arugula. There is seriously enough arugula on here to count as a salad and the flavors merry beautifully. I prefer the Magazine location on weeknights and St. Charles on a weekend day trip for atmosphere purposes, both are excellent!
(4)Christine D.
On subsequent visits Slice has made up for its first-time awkwardness. And, truthfully, no kind of mediocre service could keep me away from the amazingness that is the "fresh" pizza. The "Fresh" pizza is so good i considered taking one home, just for the next morning, in case i woke up hungry. The fresh pie comes without any sauce but the mozzarella is piled on. MMM. Then there are tomato slices and fresh basil all on top. I can't do it justice with words. Every one of their salads is good, but a little expensive for the size. The waitresses (i've only had ladies) have all been more welcoming than my first visit. Yesterday they even offered me crostini (i'm not cool with paying for bread before a meal) to stave off my crazed-monster look i get when i'm low on foods. My final service comment is that i hate when they bring you the bill half-way through your meal!!! What if you wanted to order another drink? Or a dessert even?! I understand that they're being proactive or whatever but it's really one of the rudest things you can do to someone enjoying their meal- and it's happened to me at Slice over and over. Which is why I can't review their desserts. So, Slice is getting a better review this time because maybe the staff were having a bad night my first time around. But, I must say, it's a little unnerving that there are a few (3 or 4) children running (literally running) back and forth through this little place. I wanted to grab one and shout "that's enough!" before he knocked into someone's beer or splattered some marinara everywhere.
(4)Marielle S.
I had actually never eaten here when my boyfriend brought me to this place a few months back. I got some kind of calzone that was really salty and cheesy. The cheese wasn't bad, but it was a little too salty for my liking. Also, we went on a Saturday night, and although they weren't insanely packed, it took them forever to get us our order. I would go back again (my rule is to try a place twice, unless the food is horrible), but I would be more careful about what I order (when they call something "meaty", they mean it!).
(3)Donald H.
Ordered a medium special deluxe and a pitcher of Abita. What an excellent combo. Well the pizza was way better than anything we have in northern Indiana. The Abita was cold and fresh and helped numb my senses as I wolfed down 5 slices, while my wife could barely finish her 3rd. The servers were extremely friendly as well as all the staff acknowledged our leaving and thanked us for dining there. Way cool, friendly people. The back room was really warm when we got there, no big deal they kicked the air up a notch for us immediately. Perfect comfort... A lot of room to sit inside and a few tables outside. Highly recommend this place as a must eat at if your craving pizza. Great environment with great people working there.
(5)Eric S.
Good pizza with great toppings, not sure the real name but i call it a slice of white. Pretty good, not greasy cooked perfect, and i love there slice of meat. I got a slice with Alligator sausage the other day it had corn and peppers with some green onions that was great. I have had there shrimp and Broccoli pasta which was awesome, but last couple times i have been there i was in a rush and didn't have time to enjoy. People there are really nice, and the food is good, and pretty cheap. Parking sucks but what can you expect on St Charles. I haven't had pizza better then this in New Orleans yet so when im uptown or even downtown i like to swing by for a slice of pie. Ow they started serving Popsicle wife had one she loved it, had chunks of fruits, its in a deep freezer by the front door with bunch of different flava's
(4)Mry Louise P.
It is my hypothesis that people who speak well of this place are either desperate or have never experienced pizza as it meant to be experienced. I enjoy a thin crust as much as the next (pizza) freak, & as many reviewers have already pointed out, this is Slice's purported speciality. However, I expect my thin crust to be thicker and more delicious than, say, a manilla envelope spread with garlic butter. I'd also prefer that the cheese not jump ship in one massive slithery scab before I've taken the first bite. At the very least, give me more than 3 pieces of wilted basil, and this on a "Fresh" slice, the description of which names basil as a main ingredient. There is clearly a pizza crisis happening in New Orleans. But it doesn't end there: $8 for a bbq shrimp "shared plate" that was mostly bread. $12 for a pitcher of very average beer, which we unsuspectingly agreed to at our waiter's suggestion. As for atmosphere, I'd sit in the belly of a whale for a good meal, but I gotta say they didn't do themselves any favors with the decor. It looks like a Boston College campus bar c.1999.
(2)Donovan F.
My preferred pizza spot in my neighborhood. Sometimes I'll crave their bacon/basil/garlic pizzas. Great toppings, great crust. Also, whenever I walk past the restaurant, I always spy on their front sidewalk board for menu items or specials that catch my eye and interest. I've had pretty much all their pizza and salad offerings (with nothing but positives to say about that), but I've yet to try any pasta dishes, so I have no comment on that. Is it the best pizza in the LGD? I've never put that to any scientific test. SO long as they keep me happy with their offerings, I have no reason to stray.
(4)Sharein E.
Delish pizza and Salads. Ate here twice and could have eaten here again. So yummy, and pretty quick. I am from New York and I can honestly say... This pizza is BETTER. Not greasy... full of flavor. Yumm!
(5)Luca P.
I had the special slice (which was loaded with baked potato, garlic, cheese, chives and optional bacon) and it was fantastic. Now this is not a thick slice, on the contrary. I'd say it's a bit costly for such a teeny slice (hence the 4 stars) but it tasted very good. Their Italian Soda is awesome too.
(4)Jen F.
Really good pizza place with a great menu, very very reasonable prices and great food. A place to visit again if you are in New Orleans!!! Do it!!!
(5)David B.
I love this place. The calzones are the best I ever had, the pizza is very good and everything is made from scratch. The desserts are okay, but just a bit too heavy after a good Italian meal. Regular's Tip: If you get the salad, ask for the dressing on the side.
(4)Rob C.
Wow, a good tasting pizza in NOLA. I would have gave it five but they don't deliver and they kinda skimped on the pepperoni. Really was a darn good pie though.
(4)Judy C.
Had a great meal here! Bf and I were waiting to watch the Krewe of Druids on St. Charles Street and were looking for a place to eat. I figured we should check out Slice since it was rated so highly. I was not disappointed. We came during happy hour and took advantage of their $2 Abita Amber and $5 mussels. The mussels were served in a wine sauce and was delicious. I had a slice of shrimp etoufee pizza and bf had the muffaletta panini. The pizza was awesome! Seriously, it was one of the best pizzas I've ever had. It was a huge slice of pizza loaded with shrimp, corn, tomatoes, and caramelized onions. The crust was crispy, not soggy, even with all those toppings. Bf also enjoyed his panini. We finished off our meal with a king cake pudding which was recommended by our waitress. It was delicious...a super sweet bread pudding. The whole meal was great and our bill including tax and 20%+ tip was a little over $35.
(5)Kelsey G.
I have such a crush on Slice! Wine Wednesdays hooked me in, distinctive toppings and toasty crust kept me coming back. This location in particular is comfy with groovy music and super nice staff. If pizza was actually a food category, I'd be in big trouble.
(5)Charay C.
Holy Moly! Best pizza in the Garden District! Was in NOLA for our honeymoon in Jan and new hubby (see his review..Jeffery M.) wanted a break from the culinary Cajun madness I was on, so we yelped pizza joints near our hotel on St. Charles and this place popped up. Eager to continue the gluttony of food and drink that filled our honeymoon, we ordered take out. Hubby got a slice of the meat pizza and I got a slice of the garlic, anduille sausage pizza, along with a hot cap and red velvet cupcake. Whoa! The pizza was thin crust, smelled great had a sweetish sauce and were huge! I think we paid about $2.50 a slice. The red velvet cupcake was perfect..not too sweet. We loved this place so much, we went twice!! The cap held up even after rewarming it up and drinking it the next morning! The next time we went, we sat down and ate..hubby got the calzone and it was massive! I got a slice of white pizza and a house salad. his was the best house salad I have ever had!!! It had sliced green olives and red onions..it was lovely! We were going to purchase t-shirts (we do that with eateries we really like) but the pickings were slim.
(5)Chrissy J.
Very happy we came here. Our first night visiting New Orleans, we passed so many scummy-looking restaurants. We just wanted to get some decent food before bed. Yelp helped up find Slice, right by our hotel. We knew it must be a good place since it was more full than the other places we had peeked in to, and we were so pleased! Pizza was great, and we were so excited that the beer list exceeded the usual bud and miller lite. Service was very good too. They made a mistake on our order, but sent the correct meal out as soon as they could and took it off our bill. So glad to have found this place!
(5)Bryan D.
Lots of pizza joints in the city, but this place does a great job melding the different flavors of the city with the traditional Italian classics. Check out the full menu, which includes some tasty drinks to wash down the fresh ingredients on your pie.
(5)Sam C.
Slice is absolutely delicious. Kind of artisan pizzas. I love the location on St. Charles, too. The only reason I'm not giving a five star review is because you really do have to pay for the quality. Normally that's not a problem for me, but we're talking about pizza here. That said, it's still totally worth going.
(4)Ryan S.
The Trucker Calzone was very good and probably deserves to be 4 stars. However when we ordered for delivery they said 40 minutes and it was over an hour and a half before it arrived- then once we got into our hotel room we discovered that we did not receive any utensils or napkins.
(3)Ellen C.
So is pizza without cheese still pizza? Some people tell me NO! Anyway, I've had cheeseless pizza from Slice several times and I can say they are delicious enough so that I really don't much mourn over the lack of dairy content. And if you eat cheese - all the better! My friends seem to all adore Slice so we've had several birthday celebrations, random get togethers there. They're pretty awesome about accommodating larger parties, but it doesn't hurt to notify them beforehand. That being said, I usually opt for the salad anyway, because I don't know, I guess I'm never really THAT hungry when I actually dine-in and no one really wants to share a cheeseless pizza with me (meanies). But no seriously, the salads are A-OK, but naturally, being that I eat salads everywhere, I've had better! They have a modest selection of beers on tap and a full bar in the back. Service is good, not great, but good. This place obviously isn't optimal if you're a vegan, but for a vegetarian - let the good times roll. I've heard many glowing reviews about their white pizza (? whatever it is). It's principally a pizza joint so if you're a pizza joint, definitely stop by. Just say no to Domino's!
(3)B K.
Excellent pizza, good atmosphere and good pricing. The meat lovers slice was piled high with meat and was delivered popping hot. The bacon, basil, and garlic was masterful. The basil had a bite to it, which was refreshing. The do have artesian cheeses but frankly i don't think i would order cheeses from this establishment due to the pub type atmosphere. Overall excellent like an oral utopia!

(5)Janet B.
Soo delicious!!!!calzone was gargantuan and the gorgonzola pizza had the right balance of favors.i actually enjoyed this pizza better than in Chicago!!shocking I know.great friendly service too.yummy cheese bread as well!definitely my go to place if I head back to Nola.:)
(5)Alana L.
I like to keep my pizza simple and the Slice pepperoni calzone is as good as it gets. Absolutely delicious and at under $10 it is a filling lower cost lunch on the Avenue.

Wow, it sure is difficult to find anything sour about this pizza haven. It's located right on St. Charles Ave., next to the Avenue Garden Hotel. Now that I think about it, I believe that particular hotel has a suite located just above the pizza parlor. Ahh, the Kensington suite. What a wild room, complete with sculpted statues, an Austin Powers-esque bed and mirrored ceilings....but, that story is for another day! I found Slice in the summer of 2005 and I've not found any pizza houses in the city that compare. The pizzas are always made fresh, have a great flavor and are reminiscent of the NY style. The big difference I see here, though, is the more gourmet feel that Slice adds to their pies. Plus, you probably won't find a pizza in NY with andouille sausage! They have such an eclectic selection, too. My personal favorite has always been the prosciutto, gorgonzola and arugula pizza pie from their specialty portion of the menu. Just for the record, I love cheese. I mean, like a lot. This particular pie has always cured me when I'm in a frenzy for cheese! Slice doesn't just serve pizza, though. They offer other treats in the form of fresh salads, poboys, subs, paninis, various pasta dishes and absolutely delishus calzones! OMG, the calzones are so good. I warn you, though, they are big for one person to eat. They come about the size of a spare tire that you'd find in your trunk (cuz' there's junk in there!) and stuffed with enough cheese to plug up an African elephant. Man, I'm getting hungry just thinking about this! The restaurant is shaped like a shotgun house in that it runs deep, not wide. To the rear of the restaurant, you'll find more cozy booths and a full bar to the right, stocked with all the classic beverages that one would require. They have a happy hour, I believe from 4-6 PM. In that time, certain drinks from the bar and all appetizers are half price. Not bad, especially if you're looking to grab a bite after work. In all, I only have a suggestion or two for people thinking of checking out the joint. First, the entire restaurant is not very big and because it is so good, it fills up pretty fast, especially on the weekends. My suggestion is that you get there early enough to avoid the line that's usually always just inside the door. Also, don't try to bring large groups of people with you because the seating is limited and you probably won't all be able to sit together. The food is terrific, made well and always fresh, the staff are courteous and attentive, the ambience is lively....what more could you ask for?

This is pretty much my favorite pizza joint in the city of NOLa. For the price, it is all good. One of tonight's specials was the Blue Marlin panini: delicious Gulf fish (blue marlin), arugula pesto, smoked mozzarella, spinach, sun-dried tomatoes. Quite tasty, especially for $8.95+ tax. Also, a couple of weeks ago they renovated the restaurant so that the bar is now in front of the place & the back room now has more tables in the place where the bar was located.
(4)Sarah M.
The food here was pretty good and the portions huge. The only thing that dissappointed me was the service. We had three severs and I don't think any of them smiled once.
(3)Scott W.
Great Pizza Joint. Low key and relaxed.
(5)Diane S.
The location is great and just what I needed after a long drive from Houston. With that said, the drinks are meh, the chocolate chip bread pudding was greasy with a slight bitter aftertaste but the ravioli was outstanding! The service there was pretty good.
(3)Greg M.
My quest for the best pizza in NOLA didn't take long! What's not to love about the perfect slice & a great beer selection in a casual, friendly setting?
(5)Yasmin R.
No New York pizza, but it hits the spot.
(3)Big Baby D.
What can I say that hasn't already been said of this place. It's exceptional. The concept, a single slice of pie any style you want to include gourmet toppings at a reasonable price, is awesome. Price is right, beer is cold, food is prepared very well. Never been disappointed by this place, from the salads to the pie.
(5)august g.
I go here fairly often during the week, and I'd suggest this is definitely the time to go. The daily drink specials are hard to beat. One day is half price bottle wine, and another is half price pitchers of beers. Pretty unbeatable. The pizza isn't amazing, but as far as New Orleans pizza goes, it is pretty good. Although the crust is a little too hard/crunchy for me. But they definitely make up for this with quality toppings (prosciutto, artichoke hearts, house made mozzarella, etc.), and interesting combinations for their full pies. Always great service and great atmosphere, and for the price point (especially during the week if you want a drink) it hits the spot.

THE POWER OF SLICE COMPELS YOU! THE POWER OF SLICE COMPELS YOU! :::puts down crucifix::: New Orleans is not a town known for it's amazing pizza joints. I've made peace with that since I live near/often go into New York City for what is considered to be the country's best Italian pies (shut up Chicago, no one wants to hear any of your deep-dish LIP!). I've resigned myself to all the amazing food New Orleans is known for that I cannot get back home, except for once. I had a craving for Pizza and nothing else would do. Slice was on my list since it was (at that time, not sure if it still is) somewhat affiliated with Juan's Flying Burrito which I luuuurve, so I hopped the streetcar, rode it down St.Charles and tripped off at the stop right near Slice. The Pizza? It's about as good as you've got, which isn't as good as I can get (but y'all can rub beignets and chicory coffee in my face daily as I eat a crappy donut and motor oil blend from Dunkin' Donuts). The staff was friendly, the salads were fresh and decently sized and they had a pretty rad wine special. All in all a successful craving satiated, and a bank account not too terribly dented.
(4)Gloria T.
Best pizza in NOLA! Thin crispy crust, really fresh ingredients. Loved it!
(5)Leslie C.
I have yet to have a SLICE that I do not like if "Slice's" pizza. No matter what toppings you get, you will love what you get. Service is good and atmosphere is fun! Good to get pizza to-go or for a sit-down dinner which I love! I can't wait to try this for game days!
(5)Meredith A.
One of the last places I dined at while visiting New Orleans. I love thin crust pizza so I thought I would try this place out. I found that the pizza was very good. I wasn't that hungry so I was excited I could just get one slice. The best part about this place is that listed on the drink menu was mimosas. Most places only list these for breakfast or brunch and I like to drink these at all times. Usually I have to be that weirdo asking about mimosas at dinner time(Don't judge me. I like frou-frou drinks). But here I knew I would be able to get my mimosa with my pizza without hassle. So I was able to enjoy two of my favorite things that usually aren't together in one place. This is like a nicer pizza restaurant. It has really good food and am able to get just a slice which is great for me.
(4)Burnell B.
My fav pizza spot. You can taste how fresh all the ingredients are on the pie. The barbecue shrimp po boy is a killer too.
(4)Beandrea T.
I ordered enough food for 3 people, but I figured I'm only in town for a few days and I wanted to try the best of what NOLA Cuisine has to offer. I had white pizza with basil and smoked bacon, a mussels appetizer, a bowl of gumbo, and a greek salad. All was delicious, and made me wish my stomach was bigger! Seemed to be popular with younger/university student crowd, but wasn't lacking in ambiance or cleanliness. My waitress was super friendly and helpful. Tip: come for a late lunch/early dinner and profit from their fab happy hour specials.
(5)peter s.
Just back form Slice and we are not sure if Yelp reviews take price into consideration or not but, while it was not expensive (indeed beers were very reasonable and their 1/2 price bloody mary sunday was a bargain), nothing was outstanding. All was perfectly adequate. (Oh except the Bruschetta which stone cold on cold white bread slices was so bad that I dumped the mushroom bits into my Shrimp Stew -- which seemed heavy on tomatoes and light on shrimp -- to warm them up and give them purpose.) We concluded we would have done better at the Blind Pelican pub across the street.
(2)Valencia M.
Went there with some friends not too long ago, and I enjoyed it a lot. The pizzas are huge, yes, but they are also delicious. I can't deny that at all. I loved every bite that I was able to finish and the rest went home with me. Then the next day it was darn good too. I'm actually wanting to go back now since this review has it on my mind. Huh! Okay time to make plans to go there again. Lol Well like I said, "I enjoyed it a lot."
(4)Jazmin M.
This place was really, really good. Not as good as New York slice but still really awesome. We ordered the 18 inch Special pizza which was huge for only two people and a half serving of the lasagna. I usually hate lasagna that isn't homemade but I decided to take a risk and order this and I was completely satisfied with my decision. The ambiance, the food and the experience overall was really great. I'll definitely be back.
(4)C s.
I was surprised when I first entered this establishment. The waitress reminded me of the spirit of the Austin Texas locals and the cook had HUGE hair that was carefully pulled back. The restrooms were very clean minus an accumulation of dust dirt on the window. The staff was attentive and the beverages were cold. My husband has has several slices of pizza at different times all he enjoyed. (Meatlovers, Bacon Basil and Garlic, and the Meat Lovers). I have had the pasta with white sauce and salmon. This was a very rich and tastey dish. However should I care to have it again I would ask for the sauce on the side. I have also tried the Wicked Garden calzone it is crusty and bursting with cheese. I wish the Magazine location would have the specials provided at St Charles location. Both locations were excellent! We will be frequent visitors of this establishment. Especially since there is an unobstructed view int the kitchen.
(4)Sunny Dawn S.
The pizza is fabulous. The shrimp/andouille is incredible. I've never had a bad food experience here, but the service to get to-go pizza around lunch time is ridiculous. I've waiting half an hour both times I've gone to pick up to-go. They seem unconcerned. I won't return for take out, but I'm sure I'll give in to the tempting pizza again in the near future.
(3)Tawny L.
Went there twice on a recent trip down to New Orleans. This place serves thin crust specialty pizzas as well as the classics, sandwiches, salads and pastas. I have tried both their veggie and their spinach, sun dried tomato, artichoke pizza and both were really good. The veggie pie had ample veggies that were all flavorful. The combination was good, but I thought the green olives were a little overpowering (even more so than the kalamata olives). I thought the spinach, sun dried tomato and artichoke pie was better, with a good amount of ingredients that didn't really overpower one another. Both were on thin crusts and neither pie was greasy. I'm sad I never got to try any of their desserts as their tiramisu and bread pudding looked promising. I believe my favorite part of the whole experience was walking into the bathroom and finding a painting on the wall of Van Gogh's Starry Night with pizza pies in place of the bright round stars. I got to speak to the worker who had painted it, and he said he was working on a Salvador Dali one in the men's restroom! If it had been finished at the time, I would have sneaked into the men's bathroom to snap a pic...of the painting. Best bathroom surprise EVER. So check this place out for the pizza, the beer, and definitely for the restrooms!
(4)Marcy A.
As good as it gets! Pizza is made to order and fantastic. I had a spinach salad with salmon and it was the bomb! Fresh crisp greens, Prosciutto bacon, Gorgonzola, Pecans, with a sweet succulent salmon, and a perfectly balanced Balsamic Vinaigrette. We had dessert also and that was in my top 5. A made on the premises, Tiramisu that had the most beautiful sweet cream top, and was flavorful all the way to the bottom of the very large cup it was served in. Cocktails were large and hardy. The price was affordable. Our waiter was personable and informative. Thank you Walker, for a very nice time. To quote Walker," We are serious about food here." Indeed they are. A really BIG thumbs up for "Slice", on St. Charles.
(5)Kristin B.
I have lived many places, and one thing is for sure - NOLA doesn't really "do" pizza. However, given that Slice is some of the best pizza that I have ever eaten in my life, I feel that NOLA should rethink this immediately. Slice is my favorite spot in NOLA. I am there a few times a month, and I don't even like pizza all that much. I am literally addicted to the blue cheese, proscuitto, and arugula pizza, although the greek with anchovies runs a close second. You know though, scratch that - EVERY kind of pizza that I have ever had there was spot-on. Their salads are delicious (the ceasar dressing is superb) and they have a ton of great beers. I've come to love Slice pizza more than po'boys, and that is a hard battle to win, people.
(5)Anthony C.
Growing up in New Jersey, I have fond memories of getting slices of pizza for a dollars from the local pizzeria. Slice is the closing thing I've had to the real thing since I moved to the South. While I usually order a plain slice, I've heard all their more exotic slices are just as delicious. I highly recommend Slice (on St. Charles, I had a bad experience with the Magazine one) to any and everyone who loves great food at a low price.
(4)Sam C.
I LOVE SLICE. The thin crust is not too crispy, but the crusty crust outside is so great. They use super high quality ingredients, and it's so delicious! Try the prosciutto arugula slice, or the meaty one, or the shrimp and andouille sausage one... Even was extremely surprised at how good the appetizers are (BBQ shrimp crostinis, the BMT salads). Low priced and a fun place.
(5)Adam S.
There was nothing wrong with this place. I think it was a nice place to grab lunch on Sunday afternoon. Got the cheese bread which was pretty good. I thought the red dipping sauce had a nice flavor to it. Got 3 slices: pepperoni, pepperoni and minced garlic, and pepperoni and carmelized onion. I liked them all. My least favorite was the onion slice because the onions were more soggy than carmelized. Tasted pretty good though. The garlic slice was probably my favorite, but was pretty sparce on the garlic. I would've liked more garlic. The crust is thin with some crunch (I think it has cornmeal in it or something). I also tried a bite of the white slice and the pruscuitto and argula slice. Both were pretty good, but again, not jaw droppingly good or anything. My guess is that this is probably some of the better pizza in town.
(3)Dawn D.
Good pizza, but not as amazing as other reviewers say. I really liked the fact that you can order any pizza by the slice, with any combination of toppings and sauce, so for that reason I recommend!
(4)Marty M.
Awesome! I'd definitely recommend this to anyone who likes fresh ingredients and great pizza.
(5)Lindsay H.
Slice has great, heaping, dripping, melty slices of cheesy goodness, topped with whatever your little heart can conjure up. For a gal who doesn't normally eat her crust, there is never a crumb left here on my plate. They also have a wide variety of veggie-friendly options and a great beer/wine list.
(5)Kim M.
Good salad, generously topped pizza (ok tasting) and friendly service.
(3)Guy S.
The service and ambiance was great, the menu options were also very good, but when the pizza came out the dough was soggy. The toppings, sauce etc were all very fresh and presented well. Just goes to show that with a soggy crust, its not all that great.
(3)Joshua B.
As someone from Chicago, I would consider myself a pizza snob. I usually eat deep-dish pizza but the thin crust pizza here is amazing. The types of pizza they have could be comparable to Cali Pizza Kitchen but SLICE is way, Way, WAY better. The fact that I could try their different pizzas in slice-form was an added bonus. The staff were nice and friendly as well. I had two tastey and filling slices for less than $10! I will be back.
(5)C.Rose P.
Gotta love the pitcher special- paired with their generally good pricing, and the quality of food, makes for a great dinner. Tip; The restaurant just keeeps onnnn goinngg. Like an ass, I picked a seat in the cramped front of the house. Didn't realize there was so much more dining room until I went to use the restroom... Much nicer!
(4)Wayne N.
The service puts this one over the top. Everyone was very friendly and the place had a 'real' feal. Even the patrons seemed like a nice bunch. I think if I lived near by this could become a regular spot for me. Good food and atmosphere at a great price. The pizza itself is probably not the best you've ever had, but it just might come in second.
(5)Jennifer H.
When people get hurt and end up in the hospital, they should be fed intravenously using Slice's shrimp remoulade sauce. Of course, they may never want to wake up or leave. It's that good. This cute spot has an open kitchen, tables in the front, booths along the middle, and a bar in the back. After slopping up all the sauce with buttered bread, we noshed on bacon-chicken-cheese ravioli and pesto pasta with salmon. The perfect complement: Amita Satsuma beers. Deliciomo!
(5)Alexios M.
Reliable and reasonably priced except for the time I ordered tomato soup and you charged me for the jambalaya cuz it was " the soup of the day". 8 bucks for basil and tomato? Not on my watch. So I send it back and you call out to the cook "86 the soup". Dude looks like an extra from Sons of Anarchy. His response? He throws the soup and starts cursing. Now I don't have an MBA in management, but that seems like a management opportunity. Step up and say something next time. Don't be scared of the biker types. They got moms and cry in the night like everyone else.
(4)Leslie C.
Perfect start to a perfect first visit to New Orleans! Very chill atmosphere and delicious food with an upscale feel and hometown prices! Thank you!
(5)Michael S.
Slice is pretty good, and one of the better pizza places in the city, if not the best. The St Charles location is definitely better than the one on Magazine Uptown.
(4)Joseph D.
Great service. Server was right on. Pizza - bacon, basil & garlic - medium crust - wasn't greasy. Price was very reasonable.
(5)Karen C.
They have beer floats now. AMAZING!!!!!! I'm still thinking about them.
(5)Ann H.
Stopped in for a late dinner last night...had the Caesar salad, the Fresh slice, and the hubby had a slice of the pancetta/Gorgonzola/arugula and the bacon/roasted garlic slice. Perfect meal with friendly staff. The kitchen was a little slow, but other than that had a great time.
(4)Jenn C.
I came here while on vacation, and while the pizza alone was delicious enough for a return visit, what I was truly enamored with was the Caesar Salad. I was surprised at the addition of roasted red pepper, but it turned out to be a great compliment to the flavors! I had to come back on my last night to get one last dose for takeout. Image my disappointment when I got back to my hotel to find they'd forgotten to give me any dressing for my full serving of salad. It was just not worth a 15min round trip walk for a girl alone at night to ask for a refund/get dressing. Had to knock off a star for this cruel Caesar denial. Other points in their favor: *Our first night we came minutes before closing, so thought we should take-out so they could close down. The server we talked to did not begrudge our late appearance in the least, and pleasantly encouraged us to sit. They seat up through closing. *As hinted by the name, they also serve to-order pizza by the slice. We were able to order a full pizza, and a specialty slice just to sample. Both delicious!
(4)Marcus K.
Good pizza, excellent service on this Friday night. Don't get the tiramisu. It comes in from a long way away (Chicago). Is there no one closer who can supply a good tiramisu???
(4)Jennifer S.
Not true Italian style pizza, but pretty good for American-variety pizza. Service is typically excellent & food is quick.
(3)Dallas C.
We stayed just a few blocks from Slice. My hubby likes to try different pizzas wherever we go....he is from NY and lives in Chicago-- so pizza is a passion. Anyway he loved this place! Amazing...with all the great food in NOLA I still could not keep him away from this place. He returned to enjoy the different types-- all great. Staff service was warm and inviting and by the end of our stay, he was on a first name basis with the entire crew!
(5)Berrius B.
Chianti happy hour $3. Good pizza, with unusual options. If you want to break out of a pizza rut, this is the way to do it.
(4)Ryan D.
I've had better pizza in one other place - a New York hole in the wall called Sal's. Other than that, this is the best pizza out there. That's assuming, of course, you don't favor the messy caserole that is Chicago style pizza. Friendly, full bar, great pizza; ehat else can you ask for?
(5)Maggie W.
This place is the bomb! You can order any pizza by the slice (as the name suggests) and they have different speciality pizzas in rotation. Also, they have delicious mojitos. I have always received great service here.
(5)Alex C.
One of my favorite all time Pizza places in the city (New Orleans).It's not a flashy place, it doesn't beg for your attention, its just a nice laid back atmosphere that makes you feel right at home. It's almost like when you walk thru the door the them song to that famous TV show "Cheers" plays in your head. The workers are always nice, outgoing, and very attentive. The bar although maybe small its still very inviting and all part of the charm of this special place. Now onto the food, the pizza is immaculate,once you take the first bite into your pizza, you automatically roll your eyes into the back of your head and can't help but to let out a mmmmmmmmmmm. I always order the meat pizza, with almost every meat topping known to man on it. Meatball,Ham,Bacon,Pepperoni,Sausage. The only negative to eating the pizza is when its all gone and trust me you will be begging for more. They also have an extensive collection of beer and we are not talking about Budweiser or Miller Lite, which they have as well. We are talking about introducing you to new flavors and beers you have never heard of but never fail to be delicious. All and all its just one the best attractions on St.Charles, hop on a streetcar ride down the line, hop off right in front of Slice grab a slice or a few, have a beer and roll out, I guarantee you will always have a great experience.
(5)Sharon A.
Probably my favorite pizza of all time - good thin crust, just right amount of sauce, service was great . . . this was a hole in the wall, it didn't look like much when I walked in - but my son assured me that it was great - he was right. . . . I woke up the next morning wishing they were open at 9am, so I could grab a whole pie to munch on as I drove to Dallas, TX - Excellent!!!!!!!!!
(5)Keith W.
Wife loves this place and to be honest so did I and to top it off it was real cheap, both of us ate for $10
(4)Bonnie B.
Cute restaurant. We sat outside and the pizza was very good as was the salad. Service was great too. Very family friendly.
(4)Mike B.
We wandered in here accidental while strolling through the Garden District and boy are we glad we did! They have a lot of unique ingredients that are very fresh, such as broccoli and yellow corn. Their greek pizza is very delish! The crust is light and flaky, with a cornmeal bottom. Also, they have a nice full bar in the back, which makes having a beer and a pizza all the more enjoyable.
(4)Matthew M.
Slice never disappoints. The place needs a little touch-up paint and it's a little cramped, but the pizza is always great. The servers look a little "indie" (which in my mind usually equals bad service) but they always rise above and beyond and never let your drink empty. They accommodated a party of eight for us today at noon on a Friday with NO WAIT! Tres Impresse! Love the Prosciutto, arugula, and gorgonzola pizza. I add roasted garlic to it and it is wonderful. The pizza is very thin crust with a cornmeal dusting underneath. Also there is a little bar in the back area that is usually laid-back and usually includes a cute and attentive bartender.
(5)Keaton B.
Let me start this review by saying that my "par" for pizza is Star in Houston - the best I've had in the world. Roaming the streets of New Orleans (outside the French Quarter for once), we stumbled upon this little dive. The wait staff seemed younger and more "indie" than most people we'd even seen in New Orleans, which was interesting. It's obviously close to a university or something. They were quick to recommend their favorites, and we took them. I had a slice of the spinach, sun-dried tomato, and artichoke "white" pizza (that means no tomato sauce) and a slice of the white pie, which had several cheeses on it. Both were pretty amazing, even though it may not be the best pizza in the world. We finished with the praline gelato and a shot of espresso, both of which were great. We call New Orleans "The Big Lazy" for how lethargic we find most people here to be. The pizza alone would have earned this place 4 stars, but the prompt and friendly service and modern ambiance gave it the extra bump it needed. A great, cheap lunch or dinner spot if you're ever in the area.
(5)Eddie W.
Great fresh pizza but not good for reheat! Got the meatlovers and enjoyed it when it was fresh.
(4)Natalie M.
Great pizza, fabulous calzones, a fun, cheap laid back atmosphere! I loved this place during undergrad, where a calazone with 4 toppings would cost $7 and last for 2 meals. The wait staff is friendly yet laid back and the open cooking area makes for wonderful aromas. My 72yrs old Great-Aunt, who isnt particularly fond of pizza LOVES this place and demands that we go back next time we are in NOLA. If you local, dont pass this place up and if you are a tourist, this establishment is a reminder that NOLA has more to offer than seafood.
(5)Tri N.
Itching for some pizza, my friends recommended this place. On a nice warm sunny day we came and were seated promptly by a nice waitress. The place had a simple, contemporary design, and more importantly clean. I ordered a slice of the shrimp and andouille, along with a slice of bacon, basil and garlic, a cesar salad and asking the waitress to surprise me with a drink (she chose strawberry italian soda). The salad was like a cesar anywhere else, and the italian soda is good but nothing unique. They do know their pizza though. Thin crust, with crispy, slightly chewy base, and topped with fresh ingredients except one exception. The bacon slice was loaded with crispy salty delicious crumbled bacon, and fresh chopped basil and roasted garlic. This was an awesome choice, and I would order a whole pizza of this if given a choice. The other slice was dissappointing though. The shrimp tasted a bit old, and the andouille was nothing special. At least the crust was good, but I would not order this again. I will coming back here to try out all their other choices next time I am in town. =)
(4)anna s.
super tasty pizza and I am from Philly so I know pizza lol
(4)Rico C.
Rico friends make him come here. Pizza New Orleans is big dispoint for Rico pero I go anyway. Bottom bread on pizza make Rico feel wonderful. Muy garlic for the taste. Maybe Rico no find exceptional more pizza here for New Orleans.

This weekend I went to Slice on St. Charles and it was absolute chaos. I called in a to go order and they said it would take about 25 minutes. After attempting to park for 10 minutes, I entered Slice about 25 minutes after I called in the order. There was one line for both take out orders and people putting their name on the list to be seated. Chaos with a capital K. So I finally got to the front of the line. Great Awesome. The computer is down. Bummer. The guy starts hitting the computer and cussing. Buzz kill. I have a to go order I say. "Name?" Lindsay. Yeah it's not done yet. What? So I wait. It comes out of the oven 10 minutes later. Total time for pizza? 40 minutes.Taste when I got home? Delicious. The pizza was absolutely yummy. I really do like Slice pizza, I think it's some of the best pizza in New Orleans. Slice St. Charles is a small space. There is no way around it. The Slice on Magazine is much better for dining in. However, I still like the pizza and the St. Charles location is much closer for me. Delicious homemade pizza, even if the wait is a little too long for the product. My advice? Go for a late lunch and take advantage of their happy hour and lack of crowd. But overall, if you're looking for pizza in New Orleans, this is pretty frickin good.
(4)Jen L.
Go to place for pizza. Good pasta & salads too. The only place that I know of in NOLA that sells by the slice.
(4)Elton A.
My first taste of New Orleans was Slice. Pizza, hmm... Now what I wouldve thought of, but it was awesome pizza at that. Took a few minutes to cook, but the slice I got was worth it. We stayed down the road just a short walk away, but I would've driven for another slice after hanging out on Frenchmen St. Atmosphere and the music was very Baltimore, where I'm from, and the staff was pleasant, so it felt like a piece of home on St Charles Ave. I'll eat here again very soon. Hopefully sooner than I expected! New Orleans did something to me unexplainable, and it's places like this that are pullin me back!
(5)MJ D.
They renovated the back room since my last visit. Less bar, more tables, very noisy. Pizza is still superb,
(4)L M.
Talk about an unassuming place, Slice is it. Located near Lee circle, this place is easy to access using the St. Charles street car line. There is street parking but usually is filled up. I discovered the place quite by accident but I'm glad I did. I went in thinking "OK, gourmet pizza by the slice. good deal". I was pleasantly surprised. Waitstaff is funny and friendly, and the food is great. I went in as a party of four and we all got something different. Mine was called a Trucker, it was from the Calzone section of the menu and it was one of the best calzones I've ever had and I'm from New England and lived in Italy. Leave to NOLA to make the calzone their own, Slice serves it bent in a crescent shape, what can you expect from the crescent city. It was just the right amount of olive oil, meat juices and cheese oil. Blended together a fabulous balance. Slice does them slightly different in that they serve the sauce on the side and not in the calzone. Portion sizes are good, bordering on huge but that just means you can have it the next day for breakfast. If you want a great pizza treat in NOLA, you can't go wrong with Slice. Only criticism is that rest rooms are below par, only real compliant.
(4)Ryan W.
Slice is fighting to overtake Reginelli's for my favorite Pizza in the metro area. The Pizza is delish, and you can by it, as the name implies, by the slice. The only drawback is the place trys too hard too be "hip" and it can (but dows not always) show in the attitude of the waitstaff and the speed of the kitchen.

Moving up! Now at 4 stars from my original 2. This place is really starting to rock it out. Service has been consistant, as well as food. Still wanting to have a slammin' Pizza from here as my past pizza experiences have been mediocre.

The happy hour beer special (M-F, 4-7) is amazing. For 5 bucks you get a pitcher of NOLA Brown or NOLA Blonde. 5 bucks! Or you can get a pint for $2.75. And the pitchers are big! Best beer bargain in town, no doubt. I went for the first time, attracted by the cheap, quality beer. The pizza was the best I've eaten in this town. I had a slice of Bacon Basil and Garlic, and a slice of Proscuito, Gargonzola, and Arugula. Outstanding. Tons of garlic, tons of gargonzola. I wanted a slice of Shrimp and Andouille pizza, but it was $5.75. A bit pricey. But I had my 2 gourmet slices, and 4 pints of beer from the pitcher, and ended up paying just $13!!! The server was good (and cute).

We went to New Orleans for a conference/vacation and ended up eating here 3 times. We eat out a lot and everywhere was so tourist like. I think this is the type of place I would eat if I lived in New Orleans to avoid the tourists. Lots of variety, helpful staff. Nice little bar in the back but family friendly in the front. Kids liked picking out their own popsicles from the cooler.
(5)Eboni F.
One word. Amazing! Had a Spinach salad and the pesto ravioli w/ chicken and bacon. The food was phenomenally fresh and tasty. The roasted tomatoes in the salad were just great. I called ahead for pick-up so when I got it home it was warm. I can only imagine how great it would be getting it straight outta the oven.... Next time I''ll dine in!
(5)Amanda G.
My coworkers and I used to eat lunch here sometimes when I worked downtown. The pizza was ok. The mussels were delish! The service was very slow and we quickly realized that it is not a place to go when you only have an hour for your lunch break. *** EDIT/UPDATE *** Yes - The serivce still leaves much to be desired - however, I have recently fallen in love with "The White Pie." It's yummo & you should try it :)
(2)Shanna D.
We are NOT New York or Chicago, those places are known for their pizza. I've personally experience both and they are hard to beat, but if you live in New Orleans or just visiting and craving a pizza then Slice is the best pizza in town. No pre-made frozen crust here. The crust is thin, light and crispy (corn meal sprinkled on the bottom of the pan makes the crust crispy) you can try it at home when making your own pizza, it works! :) All the topping are fresh and plentiful. Great service and reasonably priced. Order a pitcher of Abita Beer and Enjoy! :)
(4)Noah F.
Glad I was staying nearby, because this was the BEST pizza I've EVER had. [not a case of hyperbole]
(5)Jane M.
I'm from Chicago and I'm giving it four stars. Need I say more? I think not.
(4)Rebecca P.
Fantastic. I love trying their daily specials, and the unique pizzas they offer are really amazing. Their caprese salad is definitely my favorite in the city... simple and beatifully presented. They also have great happy hour specials for beer and wine.
(4)Heather S.
Love the pizza, but the main reason I go there is the BBQ shrimp. Pretty much in love with it.
(4)Sean H.
FINALLY, I find a place in New Orleans that seems not to be teeming with tourists ... tough to find "locals" places in this town. The chicken, bacon, and basil ravioli were insanely delicious - perfectly cheesy, baked hot in a cast-iron dish, flavorful - the crushed tomato sauce was the perfect foundation on which the other flavors were built, and the fresh basil on top simply POPPED in my mouth. Wonderful. Warm, friendly, accommodating and casual - not to metion very reasonably priced, Slice is a gem ... smack dab on St Charles - easy street parking on the sidestreets.

First, I must stipulate that I am an Italophilic pizza fan, so a place like Slice is starting with a strike against it (Italians know nothing of slices and eat pizza whole, with knife and fork). Despite this, I love Slice and eat there very regularly. The pizza is, obviously, great-thin crusted, little or no char but crispy handle. I love the white pizza with arugula, or the standard cheese with ricotta and mushrooms added. Calzones are enormous and delicious.Their salads, especially the mesculin, are quite good, and they make a decent cacio e pepe pasta. On the minus side, their bruschetta with tomatos and balsamic is borderline inedible. Service can be passive-aggressive, low grade hostile to newcomers unless one is festooned with tattoos and projects a punk rock aura.
(4)Ernest P.
Nice that the restaurant was only a block from our hotel. Stopped by during happy hour and got a large pitcher of Abita for $5. Orderd mushroom-goat cheese bruschetta which was simple yet perfectly executed. Bread crispy and not too thick. Also had a half salad, perfect portion. BBQ Shrimp was full of flavor, rich and garlicky. Shrimp were not huge but tasted nice and fresh, and were not overcooked. Had a slice of white and a slice of regular. Both delicious, but enjoyed the regular a bit more. In any case the dough was delicious. Would have definitely eaten here again had we more time to spend in town.
(4)Mike C.
Payed a visit to Slice while staying at a B&B on Prytania St. The white pizza was awesome; just like what I used to get while living in the northeast! I'll definitly keep this place in mind if I make it back to New Orleans in the future.
(5)Nathan M.
Slightly upscale atmosphere with casual joint prices and one of my top go-to places. Slice has a great menu selection for both meat lovers and the veggie people without a qualitative drop in flavor. Like most self respecting pie shop, you can order by the slice which is good for those that are indecisive or have a hankering for a wide variety of flavors. You cannot go wrong with any of the pies. Slice's other menu options are fantastic as well. The Trucker and Roasted Garden calzones are two of my favorite items on their menu and will leave you full without feeling overly stuffed. I cannot comment on the Magazine location, but the staff are great at the St. Charles location. They are always nice and quick with service. If you are looking for a good pizza or Italian lunch or dinner, Slice is definitely the place to go.
(5)Eleni F.
Probably my favorite pizza in New Orleans. I love that you can get any of their pizzas by the slice, and one is enough to fill you up, wash it down with an Abita amber and I am in pizza heaven. The dough is tender with just the slightest bit of crispyness on the edges, the sauce is smooth and flavorful and the toppings run the gambit. Enjoy!
(5)Tuna D.
Ive been to this place a couple of times but only the last time that I was there did I finally have some good service. From greetin ya at the door to the waittress making sure that I was doing ok. In the past, I thought the food was ok and overpriced including the service was horriendous with the waittress and their nasty ass attitudes. On this last trip to Slice, I met some co-workers there for some pizza. I protested at first, but decided to go ahead and meet them there. I went ahead and ordered the strawberry salad, it was ok, nothing to brag about. Next up, I had the caprese salad. Damn but it was good with that balsamic syrup dressing. I liked that it was the caprese iteself was not drenched in the dressing. Just a subtle toss here and there...perfect. I can still think about those wonderful sliced tomatos with the yummy slices of mozzarella cheese. So light with the perfect compliment of the sweet balsamic syrup. Next, the guys came in and both ordered. The calzone is humungous. The other guy ordered 5 slices of pizza to which the waittress made a bet that he wouldnt finish it. She was right. I ordered a white slice, plain, but that thin and crispy crust has me yearning to come back. Hmmmmmmm....food. Ok, the place is a bit tight and gets crowded fast so you have to hurry if you want to get a table for lunch or dinner. It's cash and credit. As far as family friendly---hmmmm...could be. Parking is offstreet.
(4)T. J.
(I have only eaten at the Magazine Street location) For years, my favorite pizza in New Orleans has been Roman Pizza on Cohn Street in Uptown. But now I'm thinking I may like Slice even more. Oddly enough, the pizza here seems to taste even better when I just order a slice. When we get an entire pizza, the crust doesn't seem to be quite as crispy and it's a little on the wet side. Still a great pizza, but their pizza by the slice is the best. If you like New York style pizza like me, I think you'll like Slice.
(5)Prescott R.
Quality pizza joint in NO. I don't say this lightly being originally from NY and love NY Pizza. Though I did not have pizza the calzone I had was fantastic, you could tell all the ingredients were fresh. The vegs and the cheese are on point, the calzone dough was cooked to perfection, crispy and brown on the outside and chew and tasty on the inside. The bar drinks are what you expect in NO, strong and tasty. I had a mango margarita on the rocks....dudes don't drink slushies. They made their own mango infused tequila....now that's a real restaurant.
(4)Thomas C.
Stopped here on Tuesday afternoon for a late lunch: one of their specialty slices and an Abita draft. I can't remark about much on the menu, since I only had one item, but that was terrific, and to judge from the the other plates around me, Slice does it right; all of it looked good---entrees, sandwiches, pies---even on a rainy Tuesday at 2:30pm. Can't imagine pizza getting much better in NOLA (though if you're looking for New York style, continue onward). Good atmosphere and service, the only drawback being the tight parking off St. Charles.
(5)Chris C.
Love this place. Where else can you try speciality pizzas by the slice. The prices are very reasonable and one slice is enough for a meal. Everything we have tried has been good. The garlic bread with cheese is great. The MTB Panini (mozzarella, tomato, basil-pesto) is terrific. The ingredients are very fresh. Recent bonus. They now have Aventinus Weizenbock beer on tap from Germany. This is a strong, dark, wheat doppelbock. They serve it in authentic glasses. With 8.2% alcohol, this beer has a kick!
(5)Allison R.
I keep trying to get into Slice, but every time I go, I keep getting another reason to not like it. There is NOTHING on the menu without cheese on it. When you ask them for something without cheese , either it comes pre-made like that or they just can't do it. The one thing I had ont he menu that was excellent, they took off. Not my favorite place to eat.
(3)Kelsey K.
Being from Chicago, I'm a total pizza snob, but this place was really good and damn cheap. Bottles of wine for $10, not kidding you. The service was great and the pizza selections seemed to be authentic NOLA, at least from what I can tell. I mean, not that I'm the best judge or anything...
(5)Mr N.
The ceaser salad was a good size to split and the pizza we chose was the Fresh Pizza which was perfectly cooked. The staff was friendly and really got along well with each other. There is also a full bar in the back. Parker Posey was in there and thanked and complimented on the pizza to the workers while we were there. The staff was pleased. :)
(5)Dyanna P.
Great little place! We stopped in on a rainy Friday and the place was packed. After waiting about ten minutes for a table, we were seated and ordered drinks (iced teas), salads (arugula and gorgonzola for my companion and caprese for me), and our meals. I decided on the old-standby pepperoni while he ordered a slice of the arugula, mozzarella, and prosciutto. Our salads came out pretty quickly, and we both enjoyed them immensely. The caprese was made with Slice's homemade mozzarella, and man... it was incredible - possibly the best caprese I've ever had. But then we waited for our pizza. And we waited. And we waited some more. We waited close to 45 minutes for two slices of pizza. When they finally arrived, I was convinced they would be cold, but they weren't. But I did laugh at my friend's pizza, which was a slice of cheese pizza with prosciutto and arugula plopped on top after the pizza had been taken out of the oven. He said it was really good, but the presentation was very disappointing. Tasty pizza, nice folks, but nothing special.
(4)James M.
I am not a big pizza person !! But times have changed... this pizza was amazing , had the 1/2 fresh and the other half gorgonzola ham and arugula ..... Amazing pizza can't wait to have it again ! Great place great pizza !!!
(5)Russell W.
I often find myself driving by slice but never had the urge to go inside. After reading all the rave reviews I decided to give it a go. I wasn't disappointed, they have a good and unique selection of pizza and the thin crust is great. I'm not sure if I prefer this place over Regenelli's. I'll have to come back a few more times to decide that.
(4)David A.
Excellent pizza! They probably have the best crust and sauce I have ever eaten. I loved the "special". As others have suggested, make your way to the back of the restaurant if you want to have a quiet meal. The front is ok if you don't mind the hustle and bustle of the kitchen. We will definitely be back. Slice is probably my 2nd favorite pizza place in the country, but I lived in NYC for 2 years. You can't beat that. :-)
(4)Megan H.
This is my favorite go-to spot for cheap but always good food.
(5)Adolfo A.
The pizza was OK. I've had a lot better. The place smelled like a moldy basement and messed with the experience. Waitstaff continually suggested drinks even though we told them we weren't going to be drinking that night and then kept passing up our table even though the place was nearly empty! Small, cramped, smelly, overly hyped. I would advise if you're going to eat pizza from Slice, order it to go. Would have had a better review if I just took the food home.
(2)Kris A.
Absolutely the best pizza in New Orleans. The place is fast, casual, reasonably priced, and friendly. And of course the pizza is awesome! It is an excellent thin, New York style pizza you can buy by the slice or a whole pie. It is made with very high quality ingredients, a fantastic sauce, and perfect crust. We eat here several times a month. If you like Slice you will also like their sister restaurant, Juan's Flying Burrito.
(5)Chris P.
I am still in shock that we found such a gem hidden in plain sight on St. Charles St. The food was amazing, super-fast, friendly service, and their price fixed dinners, and $5 pitchers make me want this place to open a sister restaurant in San Francisco. It was our first Lunch in New Oreleans, and we stopped by Slice on while walking to the Garden District. We wanted to stay local, fresh, and cheap. We walked by a few different choices, but one look at the breadboard with the daily special of a roasted pepper, spinach, eggplant, and goat cheese panini sealed the deal. I settled on the Muffuletta panini and a sweet tea. The service was quick, friendly and the food arrived promptly, each sandwich flanked with a decent portion of salad, and we dug in. For the record, this was my first Muffuletta in New Orleans, and I did later try the Muffuletta at Napolean House and at Central Grocery. I was instantly in love with this variation. The bread was Crispy and crunchy, the inside was gooey and warm, and had the perfect combination of Italian meats and olive spread. I cannot describe how amazing the sandwich was, and to this day I still think it holds the crown for best Muffuletta in New Orleans, albeit in a very different style than the traditional. My partner had the Veggie Panini, and was very pleased with the whole meal. The salad accompanying the veggie panini was slightly different than with my Muffuletta, but paired very nicely. We spent less than $20 and had a fantastic meal for two... what else could you ask for? Oh yeah... a $5 Pitcher of Domestic beer... Done and Done.
(5)Jeffery M.
Just got home from my Honeymoon in New Orleans. We spent 5 days there. We went to Commander's Palace, Dooky Chase, Surrey's Cafe, Parkway Bakery and Tavern, Cochon, and Slice Pizzeria. I only went back a second time to one place....yep...I had to have another Slice of the meat lover's pizza. yum yum.
(5)Veronica M.
We came back here 2x in 16 days while we were here in New Orleans! I know pizza's not what you're looking for while you're in New Orleans, but they have some great selections of different pizzas that make you want to come back again to try the ones you didn't try the first time! 1. They have an EXTREMELY reasonable and cheap price. Their gourmet slices, which are huge and filling, run around $3 per slice. That's like almost COSTCO pizza prices!!! 2. Their ingredients are noticeably fresh, even to the average joe! Garlic, prosciutto, the cheese! 3. Barbecue shrimp for the win! My coworker and I shared a plate both times and we were in heaven. The bread and the sauce were just perfect complements to each other and the portion was fantastic for the appetizer. 4. Service was great. The waiters were very attentive and kept us well and happy with drinks throughout dinner. I'm from LA and I've been to Pizzeria Mozza and all those snazzy pizza places in LA, but this one is definitely up there without the super expensive prices of those other places. Love Slice!
(5)Liz T.
Best food around and a really awesome staff! Keep up the good work Slice!
(5)Amanda S.
This place was good, but not awesome. The appetizers are expensive and small, and the service was SO SLOW!
(3)Yasmine A.
Pizza has been one of my favorite foods since I was a wee tot, so I'm always looking for new places to try when I travel. Slice was recommended to us by some friends that live in NOLA and I'm so happy we tried it. Why I heart slice: 1. You can customize individual slices of pizza. 2. BACON is a topping choice 3. The crust! It's crisp, thin and holds all the toppings without sagging! 4. The atmosphere is great and the service was top notch I'll see you again one day Slice.....
(5)K F.
F-A-Bulous! Slice has a great variety of pizzas and they are ALWAYS fresh. Sizeable portions too! Wait staff is prompt and friendly. Location is great!
(4)Lindsay C.
Located on St. Charles in the Garden District, Slice is a decent place to find pizza and other Italian-like dishes. The crust is made very well, has a great flavor, and is a good balance between crispy and soft. I am not, however, a big fan of the sauce. The pizza sauce is very thin and tastes more like marinara sauce instead of pizza sauce. Despite the runny sauce, I did enjoy the flavor of my pineapple and ham pizza. Oh and they don't make breadsticks...bummer. On another trip I tried the lasagna; again it was just okay. Same sauce. Service is friendly but the wait for food is long...took about 30 minutes (at least) to receive our entrees during both visits. I have not had the opportunity to try other pizza places in NOLA, so for now I will return to Slice, but there is a definite possibility that I might find better.
(3)Dorothy Y.
Nice staff, great food, cheap eats, no wait (if you don't hit it up at peak hours). I'm definitely not a salad person but I really like their arugula and mesclun. Last night we shared a bacon, basil, and garlic pizza-- thin crust, fresh stretchy cheese, piping hot, with lots of crumbled fatty bacon, slices of basil, and whole cloves of roasted garlic--de-fucking-licious, while they accomodated my vegan friend's request for cheeseless garlic bread and sauce. The spot is bigger than you'd think, it stretches out to the back, and there's outdoor seating as well. Prices are good for New Orleans, $7 for half a salad (and it's definitely enough) and a drink (mojito). Their happy hour is a great deal as well.
(4)Jared F.
This is a really good pizza restaurant. My lady friend from chicago would say my assumption of calling it "best in the country" blasphemy, but she agrees it good though. Relatively cheap, and a good amount of options. I would personally recommend the Portofino (unless you hate shrimp) but if you go in, it's a little small.
(5)Christin D.
I will tell people about this place and how good it was until I'm in my grave. I had a slice of the shrimp-andouille pizza and a create your own slice with goat cheese, caramelized onions, and spinach. All I can say is WOW. A few days later I came back with friends and they confirmed it's awesomeness. The chocolate chip bread pudding was also really great. I'm seriously sad just thinking about it and how I'm not in NOLA anymore. I'm also drooling.
(5)Kirun M.
The slices here are really good (and fresh). We got one slice each and shared a bread pudding. A great, no fuss meal under $15. I'll be back.
(5)Tara T.
Stopped here for lunch when we visited NOLA in July. Delicious pizza at a great price! I ordered the Fresh and my husband ordered the Prosciutto, Gorgonzola, and Arugula. Both were amazing but after trying a bite of my hubby's I insisted we share. Friendly staff, particularly the owner. We will be back next time we are in NOLA.
(5)Gira M.
I love love love Slice. Their Meat Lover's pizza with extra cheese is what I always get when I need an instant shot of protein. The soda glasses are always full, they feature local artists on the walls, the waitstaff is always attentive and helpful. (Just don't order espresso!)
(5)Jil W.
I wish I could give 4 1/2 stars....the pizza was awesome! Bacon, Basil & Garlic + Mushrooms = good stuff. If you are a pizza fan, it doesnt get much better than this.
(4)Lynda J.
I was in NOLA last week on business, had two locals recommended this place, so skipped out on a afternoon business meeting and took the trolley to the "garden district". We ate the Arugula salad which had been highly recommended and can I say the greatest thing ever. We had pizza also, which the crust was to die for. I can hardly wait until business or pleasure brings me back to New Orleans...this will be my first stop!!!
(5)Lisa W.
I love, love, love Slice, especially the St. Charles location. The food is always delicious and the staff is rad. I'm addicted to the the bacon, garlic, & basil pizza but the recent special slice, fried green tomatoes with pancetta (I think) on the white pie was f'*#cking delicious.. I am never disappointed.
(5)Danny K.
I walked into SLICE on a recommendation from a local when I inquired about good local eats. I went on a hot July day and was greeted with air-conditioning and a cold drink. The menu gave good variety but I'm a simple guy when it comes to pizza so I ordered the Trucker Calzone which contains pepperoni, italian sauusage bacon & ham. While waiting I took the opportunity to take in the charm of the restaurant. It's one of those typical trendy-non-franchise places complete with local art on the wall and chalkboards filled with daily specials. I love a place with good service and was plesantly surprised when my waitress refilled my drink before I had even finished my Coke. All the pizza is made to order, unlike many other pizza places that reheat pre-made pizza. My calzone came out pipping hot and boy was it delicious. I wanted to save room for one of their frozen treats but there was literally no more room after eating only 3/4 of my calzone. Come here, you won't be dissapointed.
(5)Michelle W.
Great pizza! I love that you can order a single slice of any pizza and try some different flavors. Great service, cute restaurant.
(5)Adriana G.
When I lived in NOLA I would come here often. I LOVE the Fresh pizza!! This is one of the few restaurants in New Orleans where you can find a variety of vegetarian options. On my last trip I of course came to Slice and realized that you can build your own slice! WOW! All this time my roommate and I would always order 2 pizzas and have a ton of leftovers, which really isn't a problem ;-). One time the waiter made a comment about how 2 young ladies were ordering 2 pizzas that would feed a crowd. We all got a good laugh out of it. The staff here is incredibly nice and will crack jokes with you. The environment here is always lively and busy. It's a great casual place to grab some pizza and beer with a few friends.
(5)Joey C.
Good location, cozy, excellent food worth the wait
(3)Tell Y.
Service was fast and friendly. Arugula salad was good. G's pasta dish was too oily and okay he said. Mussels made me sick. Very sick; took about 20 minutes before my intestines began convulsions like I had never experienced.......... I am now afraid of their food, no matter what. Everyone else seems to love the pizza, so stay safe and stick to the pizza.
(2)Tiffany S.
Sooo good. Sooo sooo good. Try the alligator sausage. Yum!! We also had the spinach, sundried tomato, and artichoke. Mmmm... The woman who took our to-go order was friendly and shared her suggestions. Thin crust pizza. Quality ingredients (you can taste it). Reminds me of Pie in the Sky in Berkeley, CA.
(5)Nick S.
earlier today my first 5 out of 5, now my second. this is by far the best pizza i have eaten. the crust is sooo delicious. all the ingredients fresh and flavorful. Coolest part, you can order by the slice and make it your way. want 10 slices 10 different ways, go for it. we had just got done eating at another restaurant but heard good things and wanted to stop by here just to try it. so glad we did. i had the special, my wife had the prosciutto gorgonzola arugula, both were amazing, and like i said the crust was WOW, the topping were just plain tasty. we sat at the bar and the bartender was super nice and helpful and very friendly. would come back just to have a drink with this chap.
(5)Michelle D.
i'd like to give slice a bad review because i really can't stand listening to an entire motorhead album while i'm eating. really after i've heard "killed by death" and "ace of spades" i've had my fill of lemmy. the staff all appear to be on drugs and i'm certain one of the waitresses stole my sweater - i left it in the booth, came back to fetch it and it was gone - *shrug*. probably the best pizza in N.O.. indifferent service, never a bad meal.
(4)Katherine J.
Used to be the best pizza place in town but the last two times we've been there, the food has been really mediocre. The thing that has turned me away permanently, is the total lack of concern about the quality of the food, service or the restaurant atmosphere. If you're looking for a bar that serves mediocre pizza this is your place, but if you're looking for a decent pie do yourself a favor and go elsewhere. (Note: this is about the newer Magazine location)
(1)Ernest S.
Eclectic customers, and good food at reasonable prices. What more do you want?
(4)Jonathan B.
Great pizza great salad. The waiter cool and had cool tatoos.
(5)shaun c.
Get the special... very tasty.
(5)Jerri H.
The food, prices, and atmosphere are good. We like it because my daughter can get a plain slice and we can get something different. My only complaint is it is one of those places where they don't write down your order, so mistakes happen. Last time they forgot our appetizer entirely.
(4)Ben B.
Atmosphere and vibe were great. However, I got a couple slices of pizza to go, and the sauce was just bland.
(3)Mike W.
i really enjoy this place the people were real nice and the atmosphere is really cool. perfect place to take your date too.
(4)Amber M.
i had some darn good pizza at the magazine street location last week....
