Coolest pizza boxes!

Family and I have been here over a dozen times, every time the pizza has been great and the lady that works the counter has been patient kind. I hope they thrive and grow.

Loved their cheese pizza. Probably one of the best cheese slices I've had in a very long time. NEW York style, thin crust and tremendous flavor! Their service was great and you can't beat their $9 lunch menu! 2 slices of pizza and a drink!

Cute

Guess this place changed hands about a year ago, and I absolutely love the upgrade. They still offer a great lunch special--any choice pizza, even the Sicilian, with 2 slices and a drink for just $9. On weekends, the price goes up to $10.50, but it's still a fantastic deal. The service was wonderful, and I went with the cheese slice and a ricotta, basil, and tomato slice, which was absolutely delish! Overall, a great spot to enjoy good pizza at a great price. Really cute ambiance felt more open than the last restaurant

They have a nice lunch special for 2 slices of pizza with a drink for $9. They have a good varieties of pizza to choose from; they have one with hot honey drizzled on top. I do like their pepperoni with sausage as well. They also have a small selection of salads and garlic knots to try. The wait time is not long, seating can get limited and the place is clean.

Incredible slice variety

This place left me genuinely speechless. I've had pizza in New York twice in my life. Nothing on San Diego had come anywhere close. Upper East Slice is far and away the closest to NY pizza I've had in California. The homemade meatball & ricotta was absolute fire, and the Sicilian slice was incredible. Staff was very kind and welcoming when I walked in. I don't want to overreact but this very well might be the best pizza I've had in my life. I don't live in the area but I will be coming back just for this pizza. Bravo, Upper East, Bravo.

The best slices joint in Temecula / San Diego area. The smell of their pizza ovens hits you from the moment you walk in. Next you'll be presented with a large selections of pizzas to choose from. The slices will be heated and delivered hot from the oven. These were the best slices I've ever had. The crust and the toppings were delicious. - So many pies to chose from. - Great place for lunch. 2 slices and a drink for under $10. - crispy crust that's perfectly flavored.

I gotta say that this is a really good New York pizza spot for you if you're in the area and want the thin crispy and buttery bread that comes with the New York style Like everyone else says the best deal in town for nine dollars you could get two large slices and a drink. There are many pizza places that cater towards the experience or the different unique flavors and I would just say that this place is a no-frills get your pizza and scarf it down and enjoy it. I will say the upper east slice is really well decorated on point with New York subway decor with all the nice amenities. Surface was good and quick. I got the buffalo chicken and I got the house special overall I enjoyed the buffalo chicken more. I wish I got maybe a pepperoni or a regular slice with mushroom because it was good but at the same time wish the slices were hotter and a little bit more cheese. Nothing to complain about with the crust and everything that they put together is really well done.

Updated! So clean! Delicious We will be back! Get the calzone! Great crunch! So moist either way ricotta and mozzarella inside! I added double pepperoni and mushrooms. It came with marinara on the side. Ask for hot marinara! If not it comes with a chilled one. Lots of pizza choices to get by the slice. Fountain drinks, and drinks ready to buy in the fridge. My husband loved his crispy salad and loves the Italian dressing. My daughter loved the yummy ranch. Tastes homemade. I would totally recommend eating here! We will be back! Under new ownership. They updated a ton! Restroom look gorgeous and high end. Good music playing. Owner making the pizzas!

Margarita Slice and Pepperoni Slice

Super nice young guys working. Went in last second before they close and they threw in an extra slice of pizza for my wife who was FaceTime with me. It's the small gestures on random nights that go the furthest. I have been coming here since it's opened. Always recommend when you are in the mood for a good slice of pizza.

(4 pc) Garlic Knots with Marinara-$5
Jasmine G.

Great little spot! I came here with my friends for lunch and got a little bit of everything. The garlic knots are 4 for $5 and are so good with the marinara. The salads are really crisp and fresh, literally not one bad bite. I also got the $9 lunch special, which comes with 2 large slices of pizza and a drink. The pizza is really good, with lots of options to choose from. They also have cheesecake and cannolis for dessert. The restaurant itself is nice and clean, even the bathrooms are taken care of. Service was nice and the staff were friendly. I would for sure recommend!

easy to read menu

Their pizza crust is super bomb. A slight crunch sound but super chewy afterwards. I tried the vegetarian and loved how all the toppings balanced together without being too salty. The layout of the place was also really nice and well thought out! Service was also very nice and sweet. I can tell the owner is really passionate about what they do.

Came here before it changed ownership and was shocked when it temporarily closed, but needless to say, the remodel that took place is very nice. The pizza is still very good, but was a little frustrated with the service after being told 20 minutes and it took 45 because they forgot our pizza was for dine in and not to go so it just sat there for a minute... Regardless, still a decent spot for pizza in Temecula

NY BABY
Seabrook M.

Upper East Slice serves up that real New York energy crispy, foldable!! slices that snap like a Rakim verse and flavor that's straight Juicy. The crust is thin with the perfect char, the cheese melts just right, and the sauce packs East Coast attitude. But it's not just the pizza cuz they're doin' it and doin' it and doin' it well with service that's warm, fast, and genuinely friendly. Walk in and it's "all good, baby baby" from the jump. Temecula just got a slice of the boroughs, and it's fire.

See all

Tried this place because it was referred by my aunt. We ordered a few things to try since it our…read morefirst time. Everything we got was very delicious! It's a cute little place, staff is very friendly and attentive. We ordered a large pizza which was very tastey, the crust was soooo good and crunchy!! It's thin pizza too. We ordered wings and fries and asked for the wings extra crispy, double fried buffalo. They were again so good and the fries were the thin crunchy ones too! It comes with 6 so next time we will get two orders since we really enjoyed them! We ordered cheese bread and it was so cheesey and tasted like garlic, kids enjoyed this for sure because of the cheese pull lol. We also ordered the caprese salad and of course very good! I asked for a side of glaze because I like extra all the time. We seen they had a brownie with ice cream which omg was AMAZING! It was moist, crunchy edges. Perfect! I'm not a big brownie person but this is definitely a must. The homemade cookies are made by the owners daughter which were also amazing, soft and the sea salt on top just made it that much better!! Overall we will definitely be back! It was such a cute place and everything was delicious and the staff again were just so friendly and welcoming. We met the owners Jay and Michelle, great, friendly welcoming people and this place is a MUST TRY! Thank you!

I come here since it's pretty close to Pechanga casino and my family plays alot. I don't gamble but…read moreI like to try new restaurants in the area which is how I found out about this place. This place is owned by a new family and not the same people who own Cali Kabob in the same plaza. I tried their full size tuna sandwich ($14.99) which came with a side of fries along with the personal size of The Valley which is chopped pear, goat cheese, argula, onions, and proscuitto. It's not on the menu anymore but you can still ask for it. The tuna sandwich was large enough for me to share with my mom. My family likes the pepperoni the most but they've tried the buffalo chicken which is buffalo chicken, ranch dressing, onions, and cheese along with the chicken bacon ranch pizza. I do like their crust since it's not so dry and it has a garlicy buttery taste to it. The staff is nice and the place is clean.
