Best in Texas

Moved down from NYC in 05 and after months of complaining about horrible pizza, my buddy took me here to shut me up. I made it a point to visit once a week until I moved to SA, but always find time while I'm in town. Don't even acknowledge the bad reviews, those people were expecting CC's and got the real deal, they just weren't ready for it !
- Pros: REAL NY Pizza
- Cons: No location in San Antonio

Best pizza in Austin
by SmittyKev at Citysearch
Home Slice is the closest thing to authentic NY Pizza in Austin. So much so that the owners are taking the entire staff to NY for 3 days to "drink in" the NY Pizza experience.
Overall, fantastic pizza, very high quality.
- Pros: Authentic, great NY style pizza
- Cons: Long wait, limited space

Delicious of course, but also very hip
by CPO at Citysearch
From the outside it just looks like a normal pizza joint with a cool name, but once you walk in side it's suprisingly hip, with dim lighting, cool wall fixtures and modern seating areas. We expected to pop in and get a greasy slice on a paper plate Wednesday night. We ended up waiting 20 minutes because this place was hoppin! The host was kind enough to get us a glass of wine while we waited. The pizza was delicious, no doubt about it. I'm so pleased to have Home Slice down the street.
- Pros: Yummy Pizza, Cool Ambience
- Cons: A bit of a wait during dinner rush
