Slice & Sizzle — Restaurant in City of Schenectady

Where do I even start?

CERTIFIED HALAL

Being from Queens, NY, I’m always skeptical about pizza outside of NYC — it’s just in our DNA. But my buddy and I were starving on a road trip and decided to give this place a shot. Let’s just say… it absolutely passed the NYC test — and that’s saying a lot.

We ordered their “small” pizza (nothing small about it), and it was loaded with high-quality ingredients. The tomatoes were fresh, the feta added the perfect tang, and the mozzarella was melt-in-your-mouth good. Every bite hit different.

Then came the surprise: fried chicken. Didn’t expect it, but it was insanely juicy with that perfect crunch — no heavy batter, just pure flavor.

We also tried the buffalo chicken rolls (they call them “Firecrackers”), and they lived up to the name. Each bite was an explosion of flavor. Slept-on item for sure.

Not pictured: their homemade Angus burger — had to swing back before heading to NYC because people said it was a must. They weren’t wrong. Juicy, seasoned perfectly, and full of flavor. Definitely not your average patty.

But beyond the food, the service was top-tier. Everyone we interacted with was friendly, fast, and genuinely cared about the experience. You don’t always get that, especially when a place is busy — but they crushed it.

And the vibe? Straight-up Brooklynesque — cozy, chill, and full of character. Felt like a hidden NYC gem in the...

Slice and Sizzle is hands down one of the best takeout spots in Schenectady! Whether you're craving a quick slice or a full meal to bring home, this place never disappoints.

The pizza is always fresh, hot, and loaded with flavor — perfectly crispy crust, generous toppings, and just the right amount of cheese. You can really taste the quality in every bite. Their menu has a great variety, and everything I’ve tried so far has been delicious.

What I love most is how consistent they are. The orders are always ready on time, packed well, and the staff is super friendly and efficient. It’s clear they take pride in what they do, and that makes a big difference.

If you're in the mood for seriously good pizza and takeout comfort food, Slice and Sizzle should be your go-to. A real gem in Schenectady — highly...

Food here is fairly decent. They clearly use quality ingredients, except for maybe the lettuce. They need to source those better, not green or as crunchy as a fresh farm lettuce. Make sure if you purchase the rice and chicken mix that you mention not to add hot sauce. It doesn't mention that as an ingredient, but they add it anyway. The buffalo chicken quesadilla is our least favorite dish on the menu. The steak subs are okay. They could use more green peppers and onions, with some frie chips. But thats just me. Anyway, burgers are worth the money, and overall the prices are fair. Haven't really tried the pizza, because upstate pizza is trash. Ill go to Brooklyn and travel 3 whole pies up here, but thats another story. Oh and the seating area is not inviting. Very drab....
