New to the Utica area for work wanted some pizza and got HUGE slices. Cheese and purple cow (think buffalo chicken) problem is purple cow was LOADED with chicken very fully and good, cheese was very good too. Young lady at the counter was great at helping me figure out what purple cow was and even told me I may want just the one slice as they are big and loaded. Wasn't kidding. Good food and will be back!! read more

Heard a bunch a hype for this place and was in town for work. I normally just get a cheese slice but the Margherita picture looked pretty good. I got slice and it was pretty big, as it should be for almost 6 bucks. Slice was nice and thin with a good crisp when you bite into it. Sauce was good and the cheese and basil were fresh. They only have a counter to stand and eat here so don't plan on eating in. Counter person was friendly and service was quick. Good spot for some pizza for sure. read more

A really great place to eat the food is really good I enjoyed the different slice options they.offer

The food was good, and people were nice. The service was also pretty quick. The environment is nice as well.

Not sure what's going on at SLICE! Today is my 50th and I am a REGULAR CUSTOMER...it was early and I wanted my usual order! So I see the cheesecake and WANT IT! The girl going to tell me it's not ready....yet By the time my pizza and wings are done, the cake would also be! Instead of allowing me to wait....she said it's not cut (I'm looking at two cakes, one cut) just not dressed! So instead of $32 or MORE?! You were willing to take $27?! Not my money WITH AN ATTITUDE?! I walked out! That was STRIKE 2! Humble yourself, without CUSTOMERS where would you be?! read more

Slice Pizzeria - Where's the MEAT?? - Pizza Near Me - Utica, New York

If you like the game of "stand in a hot pizzeria with my thumb up ass waiting for pizza"..then this is your place. So...checklist.. Service--beyond the worst ever, not close. Quoted 30 minutes for my pizza, was one hour 15 minutes. Pizza--Adequate, but not as Good as DP says, and not even close to worth the wait. Ambiance--super talkative Italian girl, who seems to enjoy watching people wait. So overall pretty shity, would not recommend..oh, and don't try to call to order, they want to job the for the extra couple bucks by ordering online. PPS--they don't sell slices. Order at your own risk, and cross a few hours off your calendar. read more

I bought $20 gift card for a friend's Christmas. The following year, I bought another $20 gift card. The third year ,the staff made me mad. I didn't buy one. The man said, as I left"as long as they are valid." Which I didn't understand. I did a review before, as to how much they hate their customers. They removed all of the tables and chairs. My friend and I went into the place (May 14, 2025) and was told the gift the gift cards are no good. Invalid. Because they changed their system. I have lost my $40. The girl behind the counter recognized me. They knew they were going to do this when they sold me my second card. They rob their customers and get away with it. I doubt that I am the only one. Wouldn't even answer a question I had. read more

Use to love this place my favorite in central New York , since portnoy reviewed it's gone to hell I go in and ask for crispy and get a soggy cold slice and the girl behind the cash register has, I'm now calling in purposely stiffed me on sauces I am up charged for I leave and they aren't in the box 4 times now either lazy or pockets the money idk but I'm gonna have to find some place else read more

The sauce was very very sweet. Overpriced pizza. People were very nice and service was good

Good pizza - horrible service. 4 people working the lunch shift and they can't keep up. 4 , repeat 4 groups ordered after me and got their food before me. I ordered 2 cheese slices - the easiest order ever. No apology, no explanation: "Here's your pizza" No wonder there are other bad reviews- with employees more concerned with gossip and playing on their phones Slice will lose business- they just lost mine. read more

When I was in Utica I asked my students what's the best pizza in town. The first, girl said red lobster, she is now no longer allowed on my bus, rumor has it shes been walking to barefoot to school so much she's going straight to the olympics out of middle school. But no seriously, they told me This place called slice. I didn't go cause I said kids taste buds be different. But finally I caved in and now I'm a believer! I'm actually headed there now. the Pizza is good enough to not be stuffed but if you just want that old School NYC slice, Big and worth the Buck.....Pause read more

They gave my 3 yr old a thin burnt cheese pizza. I do not recommend going there. Tony's however is amazing.

I should've checked the reviews before ordering. The pizza is good but I got the boneless chicken with it and it's so bad! They gave us the wrong order, it was supposed to be garlic sauce but gave us Buffalo sauce which was not good at all! It's soo salty and oily! The chicken wasn't even battered and fried like a typical boneless wing. See the pic below read more

Slice Pizzeria - a piece of chicken in a pie tin - Pizza Near Me - Utica, New York

Hypes: - slice is known to be pizza closest to that nyc slice that you can get. Just know that these slices are HUGE! Triple the standard nyc slice but also cheaper. Taste wise it's a solid pizza. - riggies - I went in for pizza but everyone sitting also had an order of chicken riggies. Must be the popular kid in the pizza store. I'll try it next tile - On Yelp- the place has stars docked for staff and I have no idea what they were talking about. We've been here three times to dine in with kids and the staff was super friendly. Gave my kids a cannoli on the house, and extremely nice. Gripes: - wings were okay. The purple ones are maybe not my style but everyone else loves them. read more

We've been ordering lunch from here every other week, or so. Everything has been wonderful until today's order arrived. Ordered slices with sausage & cherry peppers, got sausage & bell peppers. (No big deal, honest mistake) Then we opened the wings (@$15 for 10, we got 2 orders) Apparently wing tips are now counted because we got 19 wings & 1 tip. Just hoping that these mistakes can be remedied, because they, normally, have it dialed in. Update: My order was made right by Slice. Thank you! I would still babe ordering from them anyway! Keep being you! Made my day. read more

Order some purple cow wings and they were awesome. I must say so. Definitely would recommend these.

This place turned into a dump. Idk if there are new owners or what's going on but as you can see from my photos from two years ago they used to have bomb ass pizza and wings. I would honestly never go back here. The purple cow pizza was gross, the chicken was thick and dry on the pizza and there was barely any sauce on it. We ended up sending it back. Half of the purple cow wings were burnt. The place looks wicked dirty inside. I usually don't give bad reviews but I honestly am not impressed by this place anymore and I wouldn't eat here. read more

NEVER EVER GO THERE!!!!! Just went there for 2 slices. It took 20 minutes!!! And the woman behind the counter was a rude jerk. Good pizza, but nowhere near worth the aggravation. Go across the street to the truck for Savage Pizza. They actually don't treat you like crap. read more

Order was on New Years Eve in the afternoon for pick up. I had to wait about 10 min so I wasn't late. - Large pizza was cold. WTF cold pizza ? - Mozzarella sticks were over fried and all empty. - Caesar salad was gigantic pieces of Lettuce and two pieces of toast on top Overall was very disappointed. Won't bother to try again. Sorry read more

Good pizza. They really take their time to make it. No, really, they reeeeaaaaalllllllyyyyyyyyy take their time to make it. From the time I ordered a large cheese pizza with wings until the time I picked it up, it was well over an hour. I showed up 40 minutes after placing the order thinking that would be enough time, but I still waited inside another 35 minutes for it to actually be ready. The pizza wasn't that great to justify the wait. read more

I spend my time between Maine and Utica and almost gave up finding a great pizza/sandwich shop till on a whim we tried Slice. Iphone 12 max until then we went to a closer place but never really enjoyed the food. All of that changed when we found Slice. Very very very good pizza. Crust is perfect and the staff is fast. I'm read more

Somehow when I lived in the area I didn't have the opportunity to eat here. That was a huge mistake. I visited after being gone for several years and a friend brought me here. The pizza was ridiculous. Old school Utica but better. The desserts were incredible as well. This is my new first stop whenever I'm in town. Do not understand the less than 5-star reviews. Maybe because there isn't any seating? I would have gladly eaten this food sitting in the floor. read more

Went here for a slice of margherita pizza but was pretty disappointed. They just take the normal cheese slice and slather more sauce on top then add the mozzarella? That is not margherita pizza. Disgusting amount of sauce also. We also got a normal cheese slice and it was overcooked and just sad. read more

The chicken was frozen. Will never be back again. Not worth the time or money. Waited half an hour for a vodka parm sub and everyone who came in after and ordered got their food first read more

This place use to have good food and now they are the worst in Utica, Fastrac gives you a better pizza! They pizza is fry and little cheese. Also the customer service on the phone was horrible. They give you the impression you are bothering them. There wings are "boneless" well let's just say these are not what you would expect. Also they never give you the correct amount. They were counting the small crumb pieces to add up to the amount ordered. Just not impressed, at all, everyone at the house hated the wings and the pizza. It was a huge disappointment. Many times we say "let's give them one last try- and as you may have already guess we keep saying never again! Well learn from our mistakes! This place is NO good! You've been warned. read more

FANTASTIC OLD FASHIOM PIZZA! I had classmates visiting from out of town.. Slice Pizza was such a hit..reminiscent of Thurston's in Frankfort from years ago. . Fresh ingrediants, great dough and sauce was wonderful. i ordered it delivered. Came right on time still piping hot! Will order again for sure. read more

i would give zero stars if allowed. Ordered a margarita pizza. When I complained that the cheese was burned and that only some of the slices even had cheese on them they told me it was how they made it. I said that I wasn't paying called over a manger who never said a word to me had his music head phones on. They continued do cut the pizza and argue with me in front of a store full of customers. Finally got my money back and left. Very embarrassing and unnecessary. read more

Slice Pizzeria - The Portnoy Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Utica, New York

Usually am very pleased with slices everything wings, boneless or bone in. Select chicken pieces were rubbery and the crust of the pizza was not as crispy as usual. I would stick to getting slices. Slices quality was pristine in the beginning with some questionable service. As service quality increased, food quality decreased a bit. -A former regular read more

Left Utica 4 years ago and came back to find that Slice Pizzeria was the talk of town so I had to hit it up. To my surprise Slice made some of the best pizza I've had. The best thing on their menu of course is their upside down pizza. With just cheese, crust and sauce, so simple but so delicious, a must try. Their crust is amazing, I mean how are they making this? Simply delicious. And what is up their purple cow? When a I heard of this, I was like what? They are trippin! Purple cow? Come on bro. Seriously though, their purple cow wings is bomb, no joke. The guys had me tried some when I was waiting for my food and damn yo, loved it. Besides their amazing pizzas and wings, I had a good experience my first time here. The guys are friendly and nice. Prices are reasonable and the food came out quick. Would love to sit down and eat but no not here. Maybe they will in the future. Only stayed in Utica for a week but I made sure I ordered me some more of that pizza, froze it and bought it to Texas because the pizza game in Texas is wack. Straight up. read more

I'm leaving a review about Slice. First off who the hell says no to taking my order, I know it's a busy night but you are giving me a excuse for not taking my business. I'm a pretty good customer and now you are not getting my business ever again. That sucks because you had good pizza. I'm pretty angry that's bad business for telling me no to my money. Let me give you a tip you could off taking my order and telling me to come back 30 to 40 min. You have lost me as a customer. read more
