    Tony knows pizza! The pizza was delicious, the decor was spot on and they offer up some good deals. That being said, I'll be back to do a more thorough review. Pizza makes me happy therefore Tony makes me happy. Mangia!

    Yummy Pie

    Went back for lunch with the DGDs. Arrived early, which made it easy as it is very busy, and a small space. We each had a Slice...they were huge. Mine was a Little Italy. It was delicious. Sadly no Gluten Free Slices...so DGD the Elder had to order a small pie. DGD the younger and tried the Cannoli...yum! Great new spot for lunch.

    So many options to chose from and so many different crust types such as NY style, Detroit, regular, Sicilian, Grandma, with each one being exceptionally well made and delicious. I got 2 different slices and they were absolutely humongous! Rosa- Detroit Style- Topped with pepperoni, basil, mozzarella, excellent flavor. Tomato sauce was fresh, cheese was nice, gooey, and melty, and the cheese pull was absolutely amazing. Basil added an elevated flavor to it as a whole. Wiseguy- Regular- Delicious. I loved how the sweet ricotta cheese balances out the salty flavors of the sausage and pepperoni. This was the clear winner and the best slice that I had this day. I can still taste the pizza today. I absolutely need to come back and try the other types of pizzas and toppings!

    Great new addition to downtown Livermore! Love the variety of slices offered. My favorite was the Sweet Gino Grandma Style. Thin rectangular slice with a crispy bottom and topped with sweet tomato sauce, mozzarella and basil. Really enjoyed the large House Craft Salad-generously sized, fresh mixed greens and veggies with candied walnuts and Gorgonzola. I'll definitely be back to try more slices!

    Little Italy (pizza by the slice)

    Google maps strangely takes you on an unnecessary detour if following walking directions, but you can find the restaurant entrance in the tunnel-like walkway that passes through the building. The place offers both indoor and outdoor seating with quirky artworks on the walls and a modern, clean, and inviting space. Service was okay this past Friday in the evening. A bit slow, but I didn't encounter any problems. Ordered by the slice, and got the detroit style Little Italy and Walker's White Pie, which were both reheated in a quick fashion. The ingredients and crust on the Little Italy slice were delicious, savory toppings, and buttery and crisp edges. However, the Walker's White Pie, even after being toasted, didn't taste as good. It was still edible and I enjoyed the melted cheese (as I would any pizza), but it just tasted old, like it had been sitting in the display case for too long, the crust and toppings sort of stale and the alfredo sauce dried up. That said, I still appreciate the variety of pizza flavors and styles offered by Slice House, and I wouldn't hesitate to visit other locations of the chain when in the mood for some saucy, cheesy goodness.

    Came for an afternoon pick me up & it didn't disappoint. I really enjoyed the fact that I could have my own pizza flavor & not have to share a whole pie! There are four styles to choose from - Detroit, Sicilian, New York & Long Island Grandma. That im itself was an experience - square or round, pan fried or cooker in steel pans, focacia crust or flour-based? I enjoyed the Drunken Italian. It was doughy & crusty. The vodka sauce was the perfect base to the bacon, mozzarella, & cheddar. It was heated in the oven before serving it to me. It is definitely good for 2! Service is simple. Order at the counter. Slices are displayed next to the register. Once it is heated & finished with garlic, Olive oil, oregano& romano cheese, they'll call you to pick it up or they'll bring it to your table (for dine in). Dining room has limited seating inside but more outside. It is casual & easy. It is well organized with seats on the periphery of the room, next to glass window walls.

    Heard about this place on Instagram and decided to check it out. When we showed up on a weeknight for dinner, the line was packed, but it moved pretty quickly. You can order either a whole pie or by the slice. We decided to order 4 slices so we could try a few different flavors since you pick them from the window display. The slices are huge. I love to eat and so does hubby, but even for us, 4 slices was a lot. I think 2 or maybe 3 slices would've been enough. We ended up taking the 4th slice to-go. One thing I thought was interesting, we wanted a pepperoni slice, and there was only 1 left in the display case. We asked if they would be putting out more pepperoni, hoping for a fresh slice, and the employee went to check and said it would be about 3 minutes. She explained that they're not allowed to ring up a slice unless it's already in the display case or about to come out, so she had to check and get the OK before ringing up the pepperoni slice for us. Since they just opened, service seemed a little mixed. Some of the staff were friendly, while others didn't seem as welcoming. The inside was also very packed, so I was keeping an eye on the tables waiting for one to open up. They do have plenty of outdoor seating, but it was pretty cold that day so we were hoping for an indoor table. Their zero sugar soda was unfortunately out of order, which was a bit frustrating because the soda machine is around the corner so you don't find out until after you already have paid for your cup. I even saw someone disappointed after realizing they couldn't get their zero drink and went up to tell the staff. Apparently they hadn't received the syrup yet. At that point I probably would've asked for a refund since the only other options were regular sugary sodas. It also looked like they had a container dispenser for iced tea or something similar, but that was empty too. To be fair though, they just opened, so they may still be working out the kinks. Parking was easy. It's located in the new apartment buildings, so it's kind of tucked in there.

    Ok gave it another shot. This time we ordered a fresh made XL combo and it was way better. Ordering fresh is the way to go, even though it takes a long time to get the pizza. Its better then the ones already made that they just reheat.

    For a simple slice of pizza, Slice House is great! Both times we've visited, we've ordered and ate there. It's been very busy, but the line moves along quickly and our slices come out soon after. I've gotten pepperoni both times and it's been flavorful, hot, and fresh each time. My husband has ordered a couple different types and enjoyed them. So far we have not tried the pastas, whole pies, or any dishes other than the slices. I'd recommend visiting during non-peak hours since it's easier to find parking and a table around that time.

    Busy on a Wed at lunch but still ordered and got food in less than 5 minutes. Grabbed a table when someone got up. The slices were huge! One is definitely enough to fill you up but I had to try at least two, did pizza by the slice. Was bummed they only had hawaiian detroit style by the slice, will have to come back another day bc I am anti pineapple on pizza. Wiseguy NY style- 5/5 gigantic, crust was hot and crispy. All the sausages were good and flavorful Sicilian - 5/5 I think they only had the traditional, honestly the line just moved so fast I just picked what looked good. And it was, this was my favorite of the two, the dough was so chewy and the bottom was lightly fried from the oil. Cheese was perfectly melty and gooey. Only downside is the pepperonis turned into little cups of oil which is not the most appealing. Had to grab a togo box for my leftovers. Will definitely be coming back. Easy parking in the little lot behind the apartments or at the new parking structure downtown. Love the pizza box artwork on the walls.

    Nice new bldg next to Breakfast Club ! We've been to x2 other east east bay locations a d this is no exception here in west dow town Livermore. Choices always. Tin chewy abd Detroit style almost Chicago thick crilust, seems like 3 styles which is great for.choosing and variety. Even mamas and Tony's infamous hand tossed cheese. Did you know ow the originator has won world not just SF North comps?? So cool. In our backyard. First 50 were able to...? Got a cap and was signed so free advertising...when we decide to elders it. I did go incognito.and no one knew I revised the following days. The new apt community makes out, except for.the ones Above it alike next door, food smells abound. Everyday. But that's just biz daily. Let's talk about the food then the decor. Pizza is pizza, but Slice House has more. Not just pizza by the slice, obviously whole. But have you ever had a Cannoli? Desert time in a shell don't let it fall out the other end. Crunchy on the outside sweetened cheese goodness on the inside. Can you imagine a pizza with what you want in it. ? Meatballs, they got them, best kept secret in the house ..3 for 7 bux. Take a slice to go, kinda crowded inside but plenty bleating around the back and more parking east of apt pkg. They warm it up in minutes and you're outta theirnbackntonwork.or play. The sauce is sweet side but quality tomatoes finish, never asked if it's San Marizanos. Always a go to for us depending where we are in the Bay! SF first location, North Beach Tough is seven days a week but they pull off well. Always fresh never see pizza slices put back out when waiting to open next day. We've always had consistency in taste for over a decade, that's why I am posting. Alot A LO T of comps outntyere but here seems like a home run for Livermorena d the Tri-Valley. Closest is down the hill in his hometown Valley in the Castro and up north to Walnut Creek mid downtown. Although wc is a bit tight they have ample seating outside here more seating LVK. Check out all the pics even on Rony himself of the Bay Area happenings and whatnot. May be back Thursday for a slice on the way home. Ciao, Bonne Apettito! Affordable btw

    Let's be honest. This man Tony has 13 World Pizza Champion titles. Thirteen! I haven't won thirteen of anything in my entire life, unless you count arguments with my GPS. So, I walked into Slice House expecting good pizza. What I got was a full-blown religious experience disguised as a carbohydrate delivery system. The inside is clean with many TV's to catch a game, I took a moment to Figure out where I wanted to sit. I ordered the sweet gino-style pizza, and I am pretty sure the crispy cheese edge on that crust cured my bad mood. The crust is so thick and fluffy it could pull double duty as a pillow, yet the bottom is perfectly fried. How do you make dough both airy and structural? Is it magic? Is it physics? I don't care. Just keep it coming. The New York slice is so big you could use it as a blanket, and the sauce tastes like it was blessed by an Italian grandmother who loves you more than your own mother does. Is it possible to be romantically involved with a slice of pepperoni? Asking for a friend. 10/10 will be back tomorrow to continue my research.

    The traditional slice

    The pizza is to die for! We went twice in one week, it's so good! The lady behind the counter helped us on both occasions, super nice and friendly! Rum don't walk you won't regret it !

    An Unforgettable Birthday Celebration in Downtown Livermore!…read more We came to Locanda Wine Bar in downtown Livermore on a Friday evening to celebrate my wife's birthday with friends, and we had an absolute blast! The vibe here is lively, fun, and vibrant. Reservations are definitely highly recommended since it gets so popular. The entire staff is awesome, but a massive shout-out goes to our waitress, Ashley--she was fantastic and provided incredible service throughout the entire night! We ordered a wide variety of dishes to share, and every single one was a hit: * Fritto Marechiaro: A wonderful mix of fresh calamari, jumbo prawns, sliced zucchini, and artichoke hearts. Everything was fried to a light, crispy perfection and paired wonderfully with the signature Locanda Capri sauce. * Pane e Olive: Crisp, fresh baguette from local Wingen Bakery served alongside Locanda's classic olive tapenade. Rich, savory, and the perfect starter bite. * Fiori di Zucca: Delicate zucchini blossoms stuffed with creamy ricotta and mozzarella, served over a rich marinara sauce. These were absolutely delicious and melted in your mouth. * Penne alla Vodka: Tender penne pasta tossed with smoked mozzarella, Parmesan, and cracked pepper in a rich, creamy vodka pink sauce. Yummy and comforting! * Parmigiana di Melanzane: Mamma Carmela's famous eggplant parmigiana layered with melted mozzarella and tomato sauce. Hearty, warm, and bursting with authentic Italian flavor. * Pollo Piccata: Tender organic chicken breast served in a bright, zesty lemon-butter sauce with Sicilian capers, accompanied by creamy mashed potatoes and rainbow baby carrots. * Branzino Locanda: Fresh Mediterranean seabass filet lightly breaded with panko and topped with a bright lemon sauce, served with velvety mashed potatoes and rainbow baby carrots. Delicately crispy on the outside and wonderfully flaky inside. * Polpette della Mamma: Homemade beef meatballs cooked to tender perfection, served in a rich marinara sauce with Parmesan cheese and crisp crostini for dipping. Warm, comforting, and packed with flavor. * Beet Salad: A crisp, refreshing mix of wild baby arugula, mixed greens, sweet golden and red beets, tangy goat cheese crumbles, and juicy blood orange slices. * Espresso Martini & Wine: The drinks were top-tier. The espresso martini was amazing, bold, and perfectly balanced. We also ordered a bottle of Collefasani Bacchanalia Falerno del Massico Bianco D.O.C., which was served perfectly chilled--crisp, refreshing, and not too sweet. * Almond Cheesecake: For dessert, we treated ourselves to the almond cheesecake. It was rich, creamy, and served with fresh strawberries and whipped cream--the ideal sweet note to wrap up the night. Overall, it was a fantastic evening filled with great energy, outstanding hospitality, and incredible food. I highly recommend Locanda Wine Bar for a celebration, a night out with friends, or a memorable family meal!

As our organizer mentioned, they were fully booked that night so do reserve early. Warm earthy tones in the decor made for a comfortable, inviting atmosphere and the light jazz ensemble and lovely vocal performances elevated the evening's experience. The ambiance is a strong point. Being a paella newbie, I definitely looked forward to tasting a version especially after watching cooking shows over the years. The saffron broth rice nicely counterbalanced the seasoned shrimp, sausage and other ingredients. Thumbs up. I had several portions. The tempura cauliflower - good. KR Enchiladas were cheesey and rich, plumply filled, and the accompanied rice accented with corn. Since we shared the three enchiladas, my small piece was enough for me. Suggest passing on the sourdough side that came with the paella. The bread had melted, but cooled cheese on it and there was not much free broth in the paella to soak therewith anyway. With water being the group's primary beverage, perhaps request a carafe of water at the table to ease the thirstier folks (me). Our wait person gave helpful suggestions and efficient service. The rest of the staff had hustle. As normal with live music, be prepared to raise your voice and repeat yourself in conversations. Parking is ample, with a short walk, in this Nob Hill Foods shopping center.

Parking in the area is not bad; you'll have a small walk since this is in the downtown area, but there was a parking lot across the street. The bread was really good with the olive oil and vinegar, and turned out to be the best part of the meal. We were tempted to get a refill, but the menu said that they charged for bread refills so we declined. Nevertheless, they still refilled our bread and didn't charge us for it (maybe they forgot?). I tried their risotto con pollo and short rib papardelle. The risotto was alright, not the best I've had and portions were small. The short rib papardelle was way too salty. Also, it felt really sketchy when they handed us the bill with the total amount and tip already hand written in on the customer receipt by the waiter. Besides this, I would say skip their mediocre and pricey food.

    The pasta here was alright. The pesto was extremely salty and didn't taste like basil pesto but…read moretasted like spinach pesto instead. The linguine fratellos was extremely bland. The vodka sauce was the only thing that was worth getting again. They brought out complementary focaccia which was fresh but had no salt what so ever.

    What a wonderful restaurant! Great wine selection and it's so hard to choose just one item from…read morethe menu! We came here for dinner and had a great time. The appetizers, entree, and dessert were all timed perfectly. We stayed for a very long time and didn't get rushed at all. The linguine dish was really good. Flavors were on point and nothing was overwhelming on the dish. Very well balanced. The tiramisu was absolutely delish! The vibe of the restaurant was really nice. The decor was simple yet elegant. As it got darker, the candles lit up the room. We were checked on often.

    This place is pretty cute inside and out, wish I would have liked it more though! Our waiter was…read morenot super friendly. Not rude either, but wasn't a happy and welcoming experience. The front host staff was friendly though which was nice. The restaurant itself was freezing inside! My wife politely asked our waiter if they could reduce the AC level and the waiter kind of said he'd look into it but nothing came of that/he ignored it. It was literally freezing in there and I was wearing a jacket! Not a comfortable experience. The Penne alla vodka pasta was pretty mid. They for some reason served it on a wide plate which made it cool a lot faster. It was at no point "hot." The pasta itself was cooked well enough, but the sauce and cheese was nothing special, pretty basic. The salad was also mid. The beets seemed like they were canned and the salad was pretty drenched in a basic dressing. The pizzas overall were better than the salad and pastas, although the Diavola pizza's meat was too acidic and bitter. The pizza Amalfi was a better pizza, had a good balance. Overall, this place wasn't anything special food-wise and the fact that the restaurant was so cold and our waiter was not super friendly just turned us off even more.

    So glad we finally came in for dinner. We have ordered take out and it was great. We brought my…read morefiancés parents for dinner as we kept wanting to eat there. We had a reservation right when they opened at 5 so it was fairly quiet when we came in but it started to get busy quick. Great service and generous portions. The bread was ok. The meatballs are huge and very flavorful. Sauce on the spaghetti was fresh. The dinner specials are such a nice variety but I had to get pasta! The pesto was so delicious very flavorful and giant portion with tons of flavor. Added chicken and it was juicy and cooked perfect. Everyone enjoyed their dishes and we can't wait to come back.

    We ended up at De La Torre's last week after our original birthday dinner plans fell through…read morebecause another downtown restaurant lost power. The experience started off poorly. We arrived around 7:45 PM, with closing at 8:30 PM. The server outside did not seem happy to see us, and once inside there was no greeting or anyone to seat us. I had to go back and ask for a table. Throughout the evening, the owner or hostess also made us feel like our late arrival was an inconvenience. The one bright spot was our server. He was welcoming, never rushed us, and even surprised our daughter with a complimentary birthday dessert after learning we were celebrating. That thoughtful gesture was the highlight of the evening. The food was just average. The capellini was especially disappointing, as it was bland and lacked flavor. Overall, nothing we ordered really stood out. Between the average food and the unwelcoming atmosphere, this is not a place we would return to, despite the excellent service from our server

(or fancy little place for the girls!) i loved the decor, great historical building with a fresh clean interior. lots of candles and wooden accents. the staff was attentive but not intrusive. they made some suggestions since it was our first time here. loved their vibe and the way the restaurant was run. food was great! very fresh and enough for a single serving per person. i don't recommend sharing because i loved my food and didn't want to share! i would skip the fritto and try another appetizer. it was just ok. oysters were fresh and worth the price. the radiatori was surprisingly fresh and great for say a lunch. loved the combo of corn and ricotta! campanelle was heavier, good for dinner, had a few fat strings but i'm not complaining.

    We were really looking forward to trying Range Life, especially because getting a reservation was…read moresurprisingly difficult. Unfortunately, the experience did not live up to the hype. Even before our visit, the staff we spoke with on the phone came across as rude and unhelpful. Thankfully, once we were seated, our waitress was very nice, attentive, and probably the best part of the experience. The food, however, was very disappointing. My wife ordered the steak medium-well, but it came out medium-rare, which was frustrating because her requested temperature seemed to have been completely ignored. I ordered the Marin Coast Halibut. The fish lacked seasoning to the point that I had to ask for salt just to give it some flavor. The sauce was also completely cold, which made the dish even less enjoyable. For a restaurant at this price point, I expected much better execution. For dessert, we tried the Milk & Honey. It sounded interesting, but the honeycomb component basically tasted like hardened sugar and was overwhelmingly sweet rather than adding anything special to the dessert. The restaurant has a nice atmosphere and our waitress provided good service, but between the difficulty getting a reservation, the unpleasant phone interaction, improperly cooked steak, and disappointing food, I don't understand the high ratings. For the price and reputation, we expected a much better meal. Unfortunately, I don't think we would return.
