Slice House - Walnut Creek

The pizza is fantastic, but we prefer the North Beach location. Ordering take-out here has been frustrating during multiple visits. During one visit, the cooks and cashiers were arguing. However, our visit two weeks ago was excellent. The pizza was really delicious.

As self-proclaimed pizza aficionados, we have high standards. My husband, hailing from New Jersey, is especially picky when it comes to pizza, particularly Sicilian style. He indulges in it once a week and savors a slice every day. It reheats beautifully on a panini press. We recommend keeping it simple with just cheese - it's truly the best!

Update: Returned for more, ordered a 20” pie this time, tomato source and basil. Delicious. Enjoyed the pizza here: sampled 3 slices, meatball ricotta, grandma slice and regular/ cheese slice. All was almost gone before I had a chance to photograph…recommended.

Tony Gemignani is the godfather of American pizza making, and it's clearly demonstrated here at the Slice House. He showcases his skills with many different styles of pizza, like New York, Detroit, grandma and American traditional. On top of that, their crust may be one of the best I've ever had. However, I do have a small warning for those who have never been here before, this is not a full size restaurant with indoor seating, but more of a take out pizza joint with only a few individual seats with a common bar table inside and a few tables and chairs outside. As the name suggests, you can get a slice or two, but for most people it's takeout, but very good takeout.

Delicious pizza! I have only tried the Pepperoni Pizza so far, and it is the best pizza I have had in a long time. I appreciate that it is not greasy, holds together well when picked up, and has plenty of pepperoni toppings. The flavor of the pepperoni, sauce, and cheese is rich and balanced. A truly classic pizza spot that you can't go wrong with.
