    I often hear and see other people comparing pizza they find in Houston to pizza in New York City. The comparisons never make sense to me because, for one thing, the water is different from one city to the next, but also the ingredients can be different as well. One would also be hard pressed to find pizza in Houston which is identical to what is found in Chicago; New Haven, Connecticut or Italy. Each city's (or country's) offerings should just be appreciated on their own merit. With Home Slice Pizza, the first thought which comes to mind is: it's a welcome familiar sight (with lots of character and unique design) while driving along Travis Street. As I recall, this spot was once utilized by chef Monica Pope years ago. I love the exterior design, which incorporates colorful graffiti, unique signage in red lettering, the cool brick exterior and a "Hello"-inspired painting of Lionel Richie. Pizza-wise, I just wanted to try a pepperoni slice. And while it kind of looked like a slice one could get in NYC because of the thin crust, I also thought the crust wasn't as moist or saucy as what I would get in NYC. And it wasn't as cheesy either. Just thinking of the pizza I've tried from Ray's in the East Village in NYC, and I think of Home Slice as more of an Austin brand (with a bit of an East Coast flair) now in Houston which which will likely be around for years to come. The service at the counter was good. Parking is relatively easy here, and next time I'd like to go inside, enjoy the ambiance and try the pizza again.

    Really enjoyed Home Slice Pizza! Everything was solid from start to finish. good vibe, friendly service, and easy casual spot to grab a slice or a whole pie. I kept it simple with a cheese pizza. It was definitely good; fresh, cheesy, and classic! but just not something that completely blew me away or felt super unique. Still, no complaints at all, just a really reliable and enjoyable pizza experience. I'd 100% go back, especially to try some of their other specialty slices.

    Home Slice reminded me of some of the Midwest/East coast small, full of character pizza spots. Mixed seating including Booths with some fun artwork/Celebrity photos and an ample patio area. The slice (huge) selection was dizzying in a good way. We ended up getting a couple of pies. Pepperoni and White Pie with Spinach. New York style crust and on the thinner side with generous toppings and a nice balance of sauce and cheese-delicious! Take out was seamless and fast. Friendly people behind the counter. Started in Austin and great to see them in H town!

    My husband and I went on a Saturday night around 10:30pm. It was packed but nothing too crazy. The parking was horrible, just like any other place in midtown. They have a parking lot of about 6-8 spots, and the rest is street parking (not much lighting!) The restaurant had cute decor but the inside was very small in my opinion. They had a handful of tiny booths, and about 2 regular sized one. The rest of the seating is outside if you don't mind the weather. Now let's get into the food...... we ordered half an Italian assorted cold sub, white pie slice and a pepperoni slice. *The coldsub was SOOOOOO good! The half size was a pretty hefty portion, it was enough for both of us to share and it also came with a side of kettle chips. Honestly the star of the show. 10/10 would be back for this alone! *Pizza slices......ummmm didn't really care for it. Not sure if it was because we ordered slices, but the pizza isn't fresh. They obviously just reheat the cold pizzas that sit out in the front, its not bad but it just makes them too crispy for my liking. Would skip on this next time. 6/10 Overall review: 7.5/10 Recommendations: You gotta try the Italian cold sub!!!

    Make your own pizza kit

    Stopped by to grab one of their make-your-own pizza kits and it absolutely delivered. The kit comes with dough, sauce, cheese, and spices. I had my own pepperoni at home, so I added that into the mix. I baked it on a pizza steel, and the crust came out beautifully crisp on the bottom with that perfect chew inside. Honestly, the dough alone is worth the trip. It's miles better than any store-bought dough I've tried. It stretches well, bakes evenly, and actually tastes like proper pizza shop dough. If you're serious about home pizza nights, this is a cheat code. I've also been to the Midtown location before on Election Day for the free voting slice, which was a great community touch. That said, parking can be tight. Last time I went, someone who clearly didn't need it was parked in the handicap spot because they were "just picking up." I politely asked them to move. They weren't thrilled, but they did move in the end. It would really help if there were a smoother pickup option for Uber Eats or DoorDash drivers, maybe even a quick street window setup, to ease the parking squeeze. Overall, the pizza kit was a big win. Great dough, easy setup, legit results at home. Five stars for letting me pretend I'm running my own little pizzeria for the night.

    Interior

    A fan favorite from Austin that I'm just now getting a try with at the Houston location. I really liked the original and think this one does well to recreate the same flavors. This is quintessential late night pizza, the pie you get after you helped your buddy who just got divorced move into a 1 bedroom apartment. The toppings are the most creative or artsy or high brow, they're American pizzeria staples. The bottom of the crust is toasted to almost cracker like crispness and edge stay chewy and light, definitely elevated from your typical post-bar night pizza. The white clam pizza was something different expcially for this houstonian, and I appreciated the New England flair. The interior is smaller with not the largest selection of seating, but the patio makes up for that. It's covered and has plenty of fans and a decent environment to stick around and munch at.

    Home Slice Pizza is a great spot for late-night dining with friends. The service is friendly and fast, and indoor seating is tight but has a cozy, vintage interior; outdoor patio seating is also available! But don't get me started on the parking situation... to put into perspective, my friends & I had parked our cars at Axelrad on Halloween and walked to Home Slice because we agreed it was too much of a hassle to find parking here. Regarding the food, they occasionally switch up their pizza menu, so it's not always consistent, but I can't say anything I've ordered so far has blown me away. I've visited about 2-3 times already, and most recently I ordered one slice of the Pepperoni with Cherry Peppers, which was not too filling, but satisfying. I made sure to sprinkle my order with red chili peppers. The slices are reminiscent of NY-style pizza, so there was a thin, crispy crust/breading! The spice was subtle, but not overpowering; overall, the pizza was tasty and not too oily or salty. I can't say there's much that differentiates Home Slice from any other pizza shop in Houston. Nonetheless, it is a reliable, consistently high-quality establishment that's perfect for a night out!

    Located in Midtown / South Downtown north of the freeway. Interior is cozy and there's some shaded outdoor seating. Service is minimal, you order at the counter, and get brought your food, and that's it. Got their supreme and clam pie along with a slice of their grannie style square slice. Square slice- 2.5/5. Not my favorite square slice, the crust needs some work and I'm not a fan of their particular tomato sauce White clam pie- 3.5/5. Interesting to see a New Haven inspired pie in Houston but this wasn't as good as expected vs the real pie up north. The crisp of the crust is good but it doesn't have the NY feel that Romano's has Supreme pizza- 3/5. It's alright in terms of the toppings; should've gone for the pepperoni or cheese

    You know a place...a place you call home. Well, this is it. Home Slice. Put your phone down, have a piece of pie, the whole pie, enjoy a pint, and truly savor the moment. You won't regret it.

    Fantastic pizza spot with its roots in Austin. This location absolutely delivers on both taste and quality. The service is solid, friendly, and genuinely fun to chat with. Seating inside is limited and parking can be a bit tight, but it's an easy short walk to the door. Inside feels cozy, and there's a heated patio that's perfect during cooler weather. It's well worth the drive from the suburbs for a truly great slice. This isn't kid-style pizza--this is legit, NYC-style pizza done right.

    Italian sub and chef salad
    Nina K.

    Always love home slice. Their pizza is thin and crispy and they have the best Italian sub. The only annoying part is the parking. They have like maybe 6 spots in their parking lot otherwise you have to try to street park which can be difficult because the area around it is typically busy.

    7. White Clam Pizza
    Grace K.

    Yum! I am a huge fan of Home Slice Pizza in Austin, and I'm glad that I finally had the opportunity to visit the Houston location. I was worried that parking would be a pain, but thankfully they have a small parking lot and I was able to find a space. The overall vibes are very Austin-y and weird, and I really liked how they had pictures and autographs of celebrities who have visited previously posted throughout the restaurant. You order at the counter and have the option of ordering individual slices. The staff was super nice and knowledgeable. Inside seating is quite limited but I was able to get a table. Outside seating is ample and there were definitely a few patrons eating outside. The family size salad was very tasty and dressed well, but it was quite expensive for the portion size in my opinion ($22). It was served with garlic knots which had a great chew and flavor. The white clam pizza was glorious. They are super generous with the clam topping, and the dough is aged perfectly and has a wonderfully chewy texture that you would expect in a great pizza. My diagnosis: Come to Home Slice for excellent pizza and Austin vibes.

    Ask the Community - Home Slice Pizza

    Is there an option to order by the slice vs the whole pie?

    Yes you will be able to order by the slice.

    Do I need extra cheese to get cheese? You get the question.

    I think i get it. The pizza I got had plenty of cheese - great ratio. I didn't try the regular cheese slice so I'm not sure how that one is. The good news is they sell it by the slice too so you can try it before you get a full pie. Enjoy!

    Is there parking here?

    Yes there is a small parking lot along with street parking.

    Easily some of the best pizza I've ever had…read more Friendly staff upon walking in. We were seen once the line moved through to us. We had the order put in ahead of time and it was ready on time. The space is smaller but I think its designed to be that way. More so a spot to pickup and if need be theres a few tables in and outside to eat at. We ordered the pig and chicken pizza along with the truffled mushroom bruschetta. Both 10/10. The buschetta by itself can be an order. Good lord it was so good. Nutty, mushroom, cheesy crispy but not dry bread. Im a big toppings make the pizza guy. Perfect crust. I asked for it to be cooked a bit longer because i like really crispy edges. Good bread to topping ratio. You can tell the toppings arent just run of the mill stuff you put on top. The pizza was flavorful, the ricotta was creamy and gave a good cut through with the fatty meats on the pizza. Wonderful job talespin. I need to come back for the breakfast for dinner pizza.

    I got the Pepporini pizza, classic neo style. It was good but not my style of pizza, the ricotta…read morecheese on each slice was not a good touch and the pizza was floppy. Great char on the bottom, light crust, cupped pepperoni and sauce/cheese were good. The pizza looks amazing when you get it, presentation is 10/10. I bet if I would have customized it without ricotta, it would have been a lot better. Inside the stores decor is cool; skateboarding theme and I bet a lot of items are great on the menu. I wouldn't knock it and I will forsure come back.
