"Best Secret Menu Items In America: Home Slice Pizza - An entire Italian sub that consists of ham, dry salami, capiocola, genoa salami and provolone cheese."

Food Network

"Home Slice draws the Austin crowds with its New York-style pizzas, which have proven to be so popular that the joint sells 1,000 pies daily."

Veronica Meewes

"Home Slice made 18” New York-style pies accessible to locals and visitors alike, right in the heart of South Congress Avenue. Be sure to try the white clam pie for which they’ve become known."

Zagat

"Many consider this SoCo parlor a top contender for best pizza in town thanks to fantastic New York–style pies."

Jessica Dupuy

"They're all made on a special house-made Italian bread that's crisp and crunchy on the outside, but soft and seductive inside. Layered with ham, dry salami, capicola, Genoa salami and Provolone cheese, it's a fantastic treat."

Matthew Odam

"If you think making the perfect Italian is easy, think again. Layering two types of salami, capicola and shaved ham means cutting to just the right thickness and layering so the sandwich has body. Then you have to find the right combo of juiciness and crunch with red onion, tomato and lettuce; not be scared to dress with both olive oil and mayo; and make sure you get your sesame seed roll toasted just so. These guys do it right every time."

Dan Gentile

"The Best Sandwiches in Austin: The Italian, Home Slice - Austin's best pizza slinger also packs a secret weapon: the Italian sandwich, a monstrous belt-buster loaded with a smorgasbord of Italiano goodness (ham, dry salami, capicola, Genoa salami, Prov) that melts into a toasted sesame roll layered with mayo, oil, and vinegar to help wash down all that meat."

Matthew Odam

"I keep going back because I know I’m getting the perfect bake every time: a firm slice with a tawny crunch and just the right amount of gooey cheese."

James Holmes

"I always have a slice, but I love that sandwich. It has so much cured meat, salami, ham, etc., and it's salty as hell, which is great. It's on a perfectly crunchy baguette with LOTS of meat and great Italian peppers, too. It's just a well-constructed sandwich that hits the spot."

Sarah McIntosh

"The pizza at Homeslice is great, but try the Italian sub loaded with Italian cold cuts. Adding cherry peppers totally takes the sub to the next level."
