Great bar
Dustin E.

My wife and I stopped in here tonight for the first time during Downtown Days. They had $4 slices, but there were a couple open tables so we decided to grab a seat and place an order instead. Because of the number of people and the occasion, it was super loud inside, but I don't know if it's that way all of the time. Yet another restaurant where our Gen Z server did not bother to introduce herself, but she was delightful, lovely and efficient. I ordered the house salad to get in a little green stuff before having some pie and it was quite substantial and delicious. We ordered the Main Street 18" pizza so that we would have enough to take home and we sure did. My wife and I both looked at each other after our first bite of this delicious pizza. The crust is very thin and it is almost a cracker crust, but not quite. It is definitely in the top three pizzas that we have in the KC metro. We may never eat Minsky's again. This place is the real deal. The staff and Management are completely and totally on it. We can't wait to return!

Half Mediterranean and half Farmer's market

Much larger area inside than anticipated; tables, booths and counter seating. Was mainly focused on getting a pizza and was happy that they allowed half and half toppings on sizes 14" and up. Had the Farmer's market for the vegetarian side and the Mediterranean for the combo side. Both were piled up so much that the relatively thin crust strained a bit to hold it together; a good problem to have. The toppings were fresh and tasty. The bar area was rather large with 8 large screens. Looked like a good spot to watch sports. Asked for a glass of malbec and received such a large pour that I hesitated to ask if it was a single serving. What a value! Highly recommended.

The charm of downtown Lee's Summit can be found alive and well if you choose to look hard enough and at Main Slice you will not be searching for too long. The hipster bones of a pizza by the slice joint in a downtown atmosphere can still be seen but, the pretentiousness has been stripped down. You immediately know you are in the downtown of a suburb and not in the beating hustle and bustle of the city center, the energy is more casual and the pace is slower but, that isn't to say that service isn't friendly because it is. Main Slice is big and spacious inside and it seems like a place where you are guaranteed to find a seat during the lunch rush on a weekday. Their beer selection on tap wasn't bad with a few local brews but, it is notable there wasn't a seasonal boulevard offering. The gist of the menu consists of pizzas however, if you are craving a hot Italian sandwich or a satisfying salad it had a few options of each to choose from. Also, the pies are all offered in a standard 10 inch, 14 inch and 16inch sizes but, the unique thing about Main Slice is that each day of the week they offer their namesake (slice's) in a variety of options. Last time I popped in it happened to be between the choices of barbecue chicken, my selection of the day , jalapeño popper, a very close second and a Hawaiian slice with the addition of jalapeños. I didn't regret my safe choice of barbecue chicken however, next time I am in I think I'll be a little more adventurous. Would like the commend our waitress for remembering my beer order even after only being in once before, made it feel like a neighborhood joint and that sort of ambiance is always welcoming.

Cheese Pizza Slice

Growing up with New York pizza, I can be a bit of a pizza snob. I recognize that not all pizza has to be NY style pizza to be good and have found a variety of pizzerias across the states that deliver on the basic concept with traditional, cracker, deep dish, thin and flatbread crust renditions of one of my favorite foods. Looking for a lunch spot, I stopped outside of Main Slice to read the menu in the window. A guy passing by yelled, "that's solid pizza, dude!" Although the feedback was unsolicited, he's level of conviction had me intrigued. It was quickly decided Main Slice was going to be what's for lunch. It would turn out to be my best decision of the day. I wanted the meatball calzone right off the bat, but had to try the pizza, so I ordered a slice of cheese too. The slice came first and instantly brought back memories of the NY slices I ate as a kid. The crust was cooked to perfection with plenty of sauce and cheese. Folding it to take my first bite, my only disappointment was how quickly it was gone. The meatball calzone equally delivered with tasty and well seasoned meatballs, smothered in melted cheese and a robust marinara sauce. As for the service, I only know my waiter as "Server #23" or I would throw out props to him too. He was attentive and checked on me regularly throughout my meal (e.g. would you like your slice out first, is everything ok with your lunch, more soda, would you like a to go box, anything else I can get for you, enjoy the rest of your day, etc.). Thank you for doing your job so well. Who knew the NY pizza I've been missing for so long was right here in Historic Downtown Lee's Summit. Main Slice touts their pizza is "crafted with love." I'm here to tell ya, I felt it!

The Alf

This may be controversial, but I love a good Hawaiian pizza. It's probably because I grew up in Southern California, but pineapple on a pizza is a must. The main slice version is called the Maui. I love that they don't skimp on ingredients, but the pizza felt a little dry. We also got the Alfredo pizza, and again, I wish there was more sauce. The flavors were good, and the toppings plentiful. I also loved that they have a thinner crust, but wish it was a little crispier versus soft. This also applies to my thoughts on the cheesy bread. Definitely cheesy, good flavor, but a little too soft for me. I like a little contrast in texture when it comes to the crust of my cheesy bread or pizza. I would still try the place Another time. I am curious about their strombolis and homemade soup. I noticed that their menu has a rotating daily slice schedule, which is a great way to try their specialty pizza options without getting a whole pie.

A slice to go!

See all

It was nice so we sat on the patio. The brunch menu is small but packs a nice variety. I ordered the tater tot bowl minus bacon add chicken tinga. It was delicious.

On a previous visit, I ordered the spicy peanut noodle bowl with shrimp and the dynamite shrimp app. Yum!! Both were loaded with flavor. Forgot to take a pic. From 10-11:30 on weeekends, mimosas are $1.99. What a deal!! And of course I had to try all the flavors! Cran-orange is my fav. They have a great happy hour, daily specials, kids menu, vegetarian menu and some gf options. I will definitely be back to try the pancakes and Nashville chicken Sammy. Shout out to Mike the manager and Rey my server my making my dining experiece so very lovely. This casual spot is ideal for families with small children, couples, groups and celebrations.

Quiet open arrival, but as it quickly gained patrons, it was difficult with hearing aids to carry on a conversation. Old building, high ceilings - - LOTS of conversations. It's busy with 30 to 50 year olds. It was an absolute JOY to witness their gatherings, hugs and smiles. Eric - - our server, was very kind, patient and helped explain several of the questions we had regarding the menu. We APPRECIATED his attention to our large water carafe, filling it frequently. THANKS ERIC (with a C!!) Our food was nicely plated, temperature perfect and portions were VERY generous. The Classic Breakfast was my choice. Eggs cooked as directed, breakfast potatoes, one smallish, breakfast sausage in natural casing. A steak knife would have been helpful. I don't know the brand of bacon they serve, but it was FABULOUS! Thick sliced, prepared beautifully and mmmm, mmmm GOOD! The plate includes a Cheddar Biscuit. It is BIG and delicious LOOKING! I had to bring it, half of my potatoes and the sausage "to go". My husband ordered the Sausage, Egg & Cheese Biscuit. He was not a fan of the less than tasty sausage. #DIL ordered a Chicken Biscuit - - she shared a bite of the chicken. Let's just say, I KNOW what I will be ordering NEXT time we go. Our grandson ordered his favorite Biscuits & Gravy. HUGE portions, suitable for a growing young man. We will be back! P.S. The Gilded Pear cocktail was delicious. The Key Lime Pie was exquisite. Lovely plating and scrumptious. I shared it with my husband PLUS we brought half of it home.

So glad we tried this place! Being from Florida and going to a seafood place in a landlocked state…read moreis not usually something I do. We sat at the bar, and the bartender was amazing, full of helpful info about the menu. He told us how the seafood comes in fresh. He recommended oysters to us, and since it was our first time, he threw in a couple of his favorites at no charge. It was also happy hour, and we took advantage of the specials, ordering the cheddar biscuits drizzled with honey and the colossal cocktail shrimp. They really were huge and delicious. We also enjoyed half-price oysters. My husband loved the crushed cocktails We split the mahi-mahi, and we loved how he told us about the fresh fish that had never been frozen and whether it was wild or farm-raised. The mahi was incredible. You could tell it was fresh. We enjoyed the potatoes and the BéreBlanc sauce. This is going to be a place that we will end up becoming regulars at. So happy to have tried it!

This review is for the experience my sister and I had on Saturday, February 14th. ^_^…read more My sis treated me to an amazing meal for my first Galentine's Day and Pearl Tavern blew my mind!! I know I'm a bit behind on my reviews again, but posting now other than later is still fine. lol.. I'm doing my best to keep up with what life is throwing at me. That being awkwardly included and all, sis and I dined on some of the best food I've had in a while. We shared smoked oysters topped with bread crumps and parmesan, a super spicy and flavorful salsa-type appetizer with habanero that came with surprisingly flavorful chips lol, we shared some crab cakes, a beautiful aquatic-toned alcoholic drink, and shared one of the best trout dishes I have ever had in my entire human life! 0__0 The rainbow trout was our favorite part of that entire experience, which was tough to decide on honestly.. My 2nd best thing were those oysters! Our waiter was so kind and entertaining, and I really hope we get him the next time I visit! If I remember correctly, his name was Tristin. Thankfully due to how early we were there that day, the restaurant wasn't super packed, so we had plenty of breathing air for most of our visit. During the last 15 minutes it began filling up! This review is a mess you guys, but it's still an absolute satisfied one!
