To quote the blurb on the menu from Slice of Sicily:
Founded in early 1999 by Bill and Donna, Slice of Sicily is now regarded as the pizzeria of choice in the Northeast Phoenix, with a combination of 25 years experience, old family recipes and using only the finest ingredients, the art of creating the best traditional Italian food around has been mastered. As for service, once you walk in… you are family!
While I’m not sure that I’d consider 38th Street and Indian School to be “Northeast Phoenix” certainly I can attest to the family approach to the service. It’s one of the friendliest restaurants I’ve eaten in.
It was a holiday, and business was apparently slow, but most of the customers who came in appeared to be regulars and the staff knew their orders before the customers did.
It wouldn’t matter if it was the friendliest restaurant in the world, it would be all for naught if the food wasn’t good.
My pizza was pretty good. I’d have no problem recommending it.
It’s a typical New York style and the smallest available size is 14″, which, typically, results in a floppy center, and this pie was no exception to that unfortunate rule. Despite that, the crust was properly browned on the bottom and tested good.
Similarly, the cheese and the sauce were quite good. My only reservation on this pizza was that I wasn’t too crazy about the strong-flavored pepperoni. In future, I’ll probably try for a cheese only or sausage pizza.
Price: 14″ = $10.45, Price per square inch = $0.07 (0.068)
Conclusion: Recommended
