Slice House - Walnut Creek

As self-proclaimed pizza aficionados, we have high standards. My husband, hailing from New Jersey, is especially picky when it comes to pizza, particularly Sicilian style. He indulges in it once a week and savors a slice every day. It reheats beautifully on a panini press. We recommend keeping it simple with just cheese - it's truly the best!

Tony Gemignani is the godfather of American pizza making, and it's clearly demonstrated here at the Slice House. He showcases his skills with many different styles of pizza, like New York, Detroit, grandma and American traditional. On top of that, their crust may be one of the best I've ever had. However, I do have a small warning for those who have never been here before, this is not a full size restaurant with indoor seating, but more of a take out pizza joint with only a few individual seats with a common bar table inside and a few tables and chairs outside. As the name suggests, you can get a slice or two, but for most people it's takeout, but very good takeout.

Delicious pizza! I have only tried the Pepperoni Pizza so far, and it is the best pizza I have had in a long time. I appreciate that it is not greasy, holds together well when picked up, and has plenty of pepperoni toppings. The flavor of the pepperoni, sauce, and cheese is rich and balanced. A truly classic pizza spot that you can't go wrong with.

Truly excellent pizza. By far the best in the east bay. Love the Wise Guy and for those moments where im really insatiable I love the weekday special which includes a massive pepperoni pizza, meatballs and cookies! However one star must be deducted because the patio section is in need of a little TLC. Lots of trash strewn about and none of the heaters worked. For a place with no indoor dining I would think this would be in tip top shape

The pizza is fantastic, but we prefer the North Beach location. Ordering take-out here has been frustrating during multiple visits. During one visit, the cooks and cashiers were arguing. However, our visit two weeks ago was excellent. The pizza was really delicious.
