Home Slice never misses. Tonight we had the classic Italian sub and it was outstanding. Served on their in-house baked sesame roll, toasted perfectly and packed with salami, capicola, ham, provolone, and fresh vegetables. The price might give you a little sticker shock at first, but it was absolutely worth it. The sandwich was massive and easily fed both my son and me. He ate about 3/4 of it and I still walked away full after eating my portion. Photographic evidence of bar dining, casual dining, outside seating and dine in options. Easy 5 stars again. read more

Home Slice Pizza delivers on quality across the board. The pies were excellent--nice crispy crust with great flavor in every bite. Service was solid, and the atmosphere made it an easy place to relax and enjoy a meal. They also have a good variety of brews on tap, which pairs perfectly with the pizza. Don't skip the meatball sub--it's substantial and just as satisfying as the pies. Overall, a great spot I'd gladly come back to. read more

Home Slice Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Austin, Texas

Call it Home Slice Sub because it's that good! My go to: Italian Assorted. I cannot pin point what makes it that delicious!? Shredded lettuce, tomatoes, deli, provolone cheese, oil, vinegar with toasted bread equal perfection. Half sub is plenty filling so well worth the price. I'd prefer to dine in since the bread is still toasty and crispy, but if you have to take out, just know that it doesn't get soggy. I always sit in the takeout area, or outside. No service so just in and out. And if the staff are available, they will for sure check in on you, which is always appreciated! read more

Stopped by for lunch and was greeted by a friendly face. I didn't make it inside as I saw they had a walk up order window outside. Ordering was quick and easy and the gentleman who took my order offered me complimentary water which was perfect for this hot day. The pizza was reasonably priced and I was left wishing I'd ordered a second slice . The pizza tasted light and fresh, not too greasy and it was a decent size! Looking forward to coming back to enjoy the chill vibes again and check out inside! read more

Home Slice Pizza on S. Congress is a popular Austin spot known for its New York-style, thin-crust pizza. Even if you're not a pizza enthusiast (like us), their crisp-yet-chewy slices are worth trying. The restaurant was busy with both locals and tourists. The staff was notably energetic and friendly as they called customers names for both on-site dining and "to go" orders. Home Slice Pizza dough is made from water, salt, olive oil, yeast, and flour, then fermented for 72 hours for consistency. Toppings include options like fresh basil, black and green olives, mushrooms, onions, pepperoni, sausage, extra cheese, and more, with premium toppings such as fried eggplant, ricotta, artichoke hearts, meatballs, and vegan cheese available for an additional charge. We had the Margherita pizza, which was good and not overly filling. Super busy environment... read more

Forever an Austin staple. This last round we skipped the pizza for the half Caesar salad and the half Italian sandwich. It was enough for two to share I know the sticker shock hurts if you see the whole sandwich ($22!!) but I'm telling you.. the hype is worth it. read more

Home Slice Pizza - Italian Assorted (Half) - Pizza Near Me - Austin, Texas

Yeah, I'm doing the classic Home Slice review in Austin. But it really is as good as everyone says and it's a reason that this place is an Austin staple. Despite the soco location being the most well known, I am more fond of their spot down off airport blvd. First off, every time I go, the staff are so sweet and kind. Always so friendly and welcoming. I also prefer the outdoor seating and generally homey vibe of this location. On to the pizza, yeah it's that good. Every slice I've had is cooked perfectly with the crust having a light crunch that you just want to keep chewing. The toppings are loaded on top and the price for a single slice is really good when you take into account just how big they are. I also love getting a caesar salad to pair. read more

Home Slice Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Austin, Texas

The soco location is great, but I find this location superior! It's very homey. The interior is eclectic, and their patio is the spot when the weather is nice. Get here early because once school is out, it starts getting packed and the line for a table can get long. And it can get dirty if that's not your vibe with the kids running around, then sit inside. You have to get a sandwich and a pizza if you've never tried Home Slice. The sandwiches are so good (and there's a veggie option), and ask for the pizza to be crispy! read more

This place sucks. Sorry, i spent 13 years recently in NY and know NY pizza. Plus I grew up in Michigan. I know the real original Detroit style pizza made by Buddy's pizza. This place and via 313 pizzas are cheap imitations. Does it taste good? Yes. Is it equal, hell NO. Sell your pizza for what it is and quit trying to copy it for free marketing. You will always lose. read more

Home Slice Pizza in Austin is officially the best pizza I've ever had, and I'm not being dramatic. The slices are MASSIVE, like "you have to fold it or you're going to wear it" huge. The crust had that perfect chew, and it was just straight up great pizza. We ate there and loved it so much that later that night we threw a little party and ordered Home Slice (again) delivered, and it still hit just as hard the second time! Everyone at the party loved it. Don't skip dessert! Their cookie was legit, so soft and loaded with chocolate chunks. For some reason, an awesome cookie paired with the best pizza is an elite combo. The dine in area isn't huge, but they're always busy because they're that good, and it's worth the wait. Sitting inside isn't impossible though, and it has a really cute old-school pizzeria vibe that feels authentic (not in a gross way). The staff is INCREDIBLY nice too and went out of their way for me multiple times, which just made me love the place even more. If you're in Austin, this is a must. Go hungry, plan on leftovers, and accept that folding your slice is part of the experience. Easy 5 stars from me. read more

This place was great. I went in for a late night pizza slice. I had 2...a pepperoni and a broccoli and feta. Both were amazing. I also returned the next day and had a calzone. Also good. This place is very efficient for the large foot traffic they have. I did have to wait about 45 min for the calzone but I had fun people watching. read more

Home Slice Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Austin, Texas

Dec 13, 2025 review: ---- This is one of those late night cravings place but with the good food quality. They have 2-3 options for vegetarian in their slice options. Super easy to order. You can just order through the window, no need to walk inside restaurant. Plenty of seating both outside and inside. Outside is also huge with place to sit in front, side and back area. Full menu is also available with salad, calzone, full size pizza portions. 1-2 pizza slice maybe a enough for one person depending on how hungry you are. It's decent size pie. They do have chilli flakes and oregano (which I hardly find at any pizza place). Overall really good place to keep in mind if you have late night cravings for pizza. read more

Home Slice Pizza - Margarita pizza slice and one spinach mushroom tomato pizza slice - Pizza Near Me - Austin, Texas

Home Slice gets a lot of hype in Austin but I truly believe it really is that good... it's some of the best NY style pizza you can get here in Austin and the subs are PHENOMENAL! They're open late, the pricing is reasonable, and the portion size is fantastic! FAST FACTS: * Parking - small lot in front of the building with some neighborhood parking nearby(can be tricky if they're busy) * Online ordering - available for pickup on their website * Pizza available by the slice or pie * Counter to the left when you enter for pickup orders and pizza by the slice SERVICE - We arrived at 9:20 pm on a Saturday night (on their 20th birthday celebration) and were seated right away. They were busy but the service was great... our server Nate took care of us from start to finish and made sure we had everything we needed. We ordered everything at once and they brought out the 2 slices first (about 20 minutes after ordering) followed by the subs (10 minutes later). PRICING - The total was $61.98 after tax ($4.73) but before tip for an iced tea ($3.50), pepperoni slice ($4.75), white pie with spinach slice ($5), whole meatball sub ($22) and whole Italian sub ($22). At first, $22 for a sub might sound steep but they are MASSIVE... two people could split a sub and be good to go! I think the pricing is reasonable for the portion size. PEPPERONI SLICE (8/10) - Classic NY style and it's done right... the crust is what makes it! It's foldable but not floppy and the pepperoni are crispy but not burnt. It's a great slice of pizza! I'd order this again. WHITE PIE WITH SPINACH SLICE (7/10) - This was one of the daily offerings for slices and I wanted to try something different... it was super cheesy and good! I'd probably get a different slice next time but I'm happy I tried it. ITALIAN SUB (8/10) - First of all, it's MASSIVE! The sesame seed bun is different but it works! There's also mayo on it which I really enjoyed. This is one of the best Italian subs I've had, especially in Austin. I'd order this again. MEATBALL SUB (8/10) - Again, It's MASSIVE. It's loaded from the top so it holds together pretty well. The meatballs are flavorful and juicy, it has the right amount of marinara sauce, and the cheese is super melty. Just like with the Italian subs, it's one of my favorite meatball subs here in Austin. I'd order this again. This was my second time trying this Home Slice location and I've also been to the SoCo location... both are great but this one is less busy. I'll definitely be back when I want NY style pizza or a massive sub (especially late) and would recommend it to others. Don't be afraid to get more food than you think you'll eat and take it home (both the pizza and subs reheat well and don't get soggy)! read more

First time visiting Home Slice's E 53rd St location! There's a small parking lot out front and some spots along the side. We came on a Wednesday around 4 pm, and were seated almost immediately. The interior design is very charming, complete with red gingham tablecloths and ambient lighting. (Side note, their bathrooms are quite nice too.) Our friend group all decided to go for "Pizza by the Slice." The slice pies change everyday and there are both thin crust and Sicilian (deep dish style, available until 5 pm) options available. Initially was going to order the Sicilian Pepperoni, but decided to try out the Special Slice after our server finished describing the options! Special Slice/White Pie ($5.00, 5/5) - The white pie comes topped with spinach and a good amount of ricotta! Very flavorful, and the ricotta was rich and creamy. - The (thin) crust was well-seasoned, warm & crispy - Fan favorite out of the group (with many of us getting another slice to-go). Overall, Home Slice is a great meet-up spot for delicious pizza! Would highly recommend giving the white pie a try if you haven't already. Will definitely be back to visit again! read more

Everybody looked at me strangely when I said I have never tried Home Slice as I've been an Austin resident off and on since 2016. When I lived within walking distance, I still never visited. I cannot believe it! This restaurant is more than just a restaurant -- it's a whole MOOD. The bathrooms are ones to experience for sure as there are surprises next to the sink (you gotta check it out). Our waiter was extraordinarily helpful and kind. I ordered a half greek salad and a vegan slice. Since the greek salad comes with feta, he made sure to give me the feta on the side (assuming correctly that I am dairy-free). Incredible attention to detail, especially with a party larger than 6! My pizza slice was perfect: I hate a saucy slice and there was just enough marinara to not be heavy and overwhelming. The greek salad was dressed to perfection and light enough to not make me feel bloated. With 22% gratuity included, our large table ate for a little over $120 which I found spectacular! No wonder why this place is always bustling. I will say finding parking is really tough but there are always the neighborhood backstreets. I will be back! read more

In Austin for work and personal. Not ashamed to say I had it twice in one week. First time, work peeps, large group of 10. Waited maybe 20ish min which wasn't too bad on a Tuesday night. Unfortunately I wasn't feeling super great so couldn't fully enjoy my meal. Got the margherita pizza and had a little of the house salad. Salad was light and refreshing but could have used a little salt. Second round: feeling much better and got to enjoy more. We came for lunch right when they opened. We got a nice assortment of the menu. Order: medium buffalo wings - on the small side but enjoyable Chicken parm sandwich- got a nibble , so good. Bread was soft, chewy, and crusty. Pizza: large pepperoni with half having mushrooms and basil Caesar salad: the dressing had a light zing to the traditional Caesar Both times servers were great. Attentive, nice, and helpful with ordering for a big group. read more

Home Slice is in our regular rotation and somewhere we'll take guests from out of town if they're wanting a slice of pizza. We went this past weekend with an out of town guest, the wait wasn't bad and ended up being a little less than quoted. Parking was a little tough because it was during dinner hour but we found street parking. Home Slice always has a specialty slice which is like their rotating flavor, this was our first encounter with the meatball onion and let me tell youuuuuuu. This slice was so delicious! The flavor of the meatball and the paper thin onions that melted into the cheese were just *chefs kiss*. The spinach white pie is always a favorite for us and definitely recommend their cannoli even if you have to take it to go! read more

Home Slice Pizza - Prop Large Pizza (18") - Pizza Near Me - Austin, Texas

We went for an early dinner on New Year's Eve. This was our first time at this location and they did a great job. The wait was only about 20 minutes for an inside table. We got the #8 which came loaded with fresh toppings. We asked for extra crispy crust and the kitchen made it happen. Service was excellent in spite of the big crowd. The restaurant has a great atmosphere. Everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves and we weren't rushed to make way for others. And the tiramisu was delicious. We will be back!!! read more

My husband and I came here to try the pizza after hearing great things--we were especially excited because we've been missing good pizza from back home (NYC). Service was excellent and the food came out quickly, which we appreciated. The staff was genuinely friendly, the space was clean, and the bathroom was well-maintained. There's a nice variety of seating and a great selection of beers on tap. We started with the Caesar salad, which was fresh, crisp, and full of flavor--definitely a highlight. Unfortunately, the pizza itself didn't live up to the hype for us. As native New Yorkers, we were hoping for that true NY-style experience, but this just didn't hit the mark. It wasn't super bad, just not what we'd call New York pizza--and not something we'd come back for. While we won't return for the pizza, we still appreciated the friendly service and clean, welcoming space. read more

We had nothing better to do on a soon to be rainy Friday night so we decided to go out and solve our pizza cravings. Since the 40 minute drive to South Congress didn't seem very fun, we decided to stop at the East 53rd Street location for Homeslice. Here's what we found... Parking is tight and may take a few times around so be prepared for that. We got very lucky and their parking lot security waved us over to a spot. There's a good amount of indoor vs outdoor seating, we chose the latter and it was nice as there's a good energy around the restaurant. You do have the option of restaurant style for both indoor and outdoor which is a nice option. We ordered garlic knots, 2 cheese slices, a pepperoni slice, and a margherita slice. They bring the food right out to your table which is very convenient (you order at an outside window for context). The food itself varied quite a bit in tastiness. The garlic knots were some of the worst we've ever had. Barely any garlic flavor or any flavor at all really, pretty disappointing. The slices however more than made up for that. The margherita slice was okay, definitely didn't look like a good slice presentation wise but tasted just like one. The other two slices though, pure heaven. The regular cheese is dam near perfection, about as close to NYC as you can get. And the pepperoni? We took a bite and dam near teleported to Bleecker Street. Unreal. By the end of our trip to Homeslice on 53rd we came to 2 realizations: dam that was good and statistical anomalies are real (see garlic knot criticism for proof). read more

Food here is a near five star for me. In terms of the quality, consistency, and price, I just feel like Homeslice knows itself super well. The slice offerings are generously sized, balanced in their saltiness, and usually come out very fast! Today there was a slight mixup and out to go order (one slice and one Italian sandwich) took about 40 minutes to come out. I do wish the staff showed a but more humility and remorse, but I'll chalk it up to a one off. It was also packed on this Friday evening, so the vibes were fun and lively as we waited in their outside seating area. When we finally did get to eat, our Italian sub did not disappoint. It was stacked high with meat, was just a bit soggy having sat while we waited, but the flavor was amazing. Looking forward to more from Homeslice. read more

Very much like NYC pizza. As someone once said, in order to know if a pizza place has good pizza you have to get just a plain slice of cheese. So, I got the cheese, margarita, pepperoni, and a slice of sausage and garlic. All 4 slices were delicious. Too bad I wasn't in Texas for pizza but if I was I would definitely hit this place up again. I LOVE NY style pizza. All Q spots are closed on Mondays so...this was next best choice. The only thing that sucked is they were out of pineapple and ham so no Hawaiian. And the pizzas they have on display are pretty much what you get unless you order a whole pizza . They have a few locations, so feel free to pick and choose. Wouldn't mind checking out other spots next time. read more

Being from Massachusetts, I'm naturally picky about my pizza, but HomeSlice is the real deal. It tastes so close to the pizza I grew up eating back home and in New York. We've been twice recently and it's been amazing both times. Most recently, we went on a Sunday as a party of 2 and were sat instantly in a booth inside (actually the same booth we had last time, which was a vibe). We kept it "simple" with Mexican Cokes, an Italian sub, and slices of cheese and pepperoni. My fiancé literally dreams about this Italian sub--it's that good. A few weeks back, we came with a bigger group on a Saturday. The wait for a table was definitely longer, but we wanted the full-service experience instead of the takeout window. They were so sweet and gave my nieces actual pizza dough to play with while we waited for the food, which kept them busy. We did a whole pie and wings that time and everything was 10/10. Highlight: The leftovers. I heated them up the next day and they were still a perfect 10. That's the true test of a good crust. Lowlight (if you can even call it that): I'm not a fan of Maine Root sodas (just being picky lol), but they have glass bottles of Mexican Coke and other drinks that are totally worth it and hit the spot. If you want that authentic Northeast feel in Austin, this is it. read more

Great experience and this spot is perfect for kids. We had friends in town visiting and their 1 and 4 year old loved playing in the kids area and playing with the complimentary kids dough balls they provide for entertainment. They offer vegan pizza options by the slice and as full pizzas which is so appreciated, Very tasty! The inside and outside dining areas are completely different vibes but both are great. While the inside had a 25 minute wait, we were able to order at the counter and sit down outside right away (covered with fans). Highly recommend!! read more

I haven't yet physically been to Home Slice, but I did get it delivered last night. It was worth the wait for sure! The pizza was HUGE so if I ever go eat by the slice, then just one slice would be a whole meal for me. The thin crust was great because it still had a nice sized outer ring of crust. The flavor of the pizza dough seemed unique and I loved it. I had the classic margherita pizza and it was perfect. Great balance of tomatoes, cheese and basil. My friend raved about the turkey sub. I also got and warmed up one of their big chocolate chip cookies, which was tasty but a little crispy for my taste. I can't wait to go into this neighborhood pizza joint to enjoy the full experience! read more

I mean, Home Slice is THE Austin pizza place!! The white pie with spinach is one of my all time fav takeout orders. Don't sleep on the subs either... they are such a hidden sandwich gem!!

I've lived in New York City and can confidently say that Home Slice Pizza is the closest New York-style pizza that I've had in Austin. My fiance and I visited on a busy Friday night so parking was packed. Nevertheless with a little patience, we found street parking. We only wanted a few slices of pizza so we ordered from the walk-up window instead of dining in. Pepperoni was a solid choice--they even had the little pool of oil at the bottom of each cupped pepperoni. The margherita was also delicious. Slices are huge too! Our food came out quickly and hot! We'll definitely be coming back again. read more
