Miami Slice — Restaurant in Miami

The lines are there and keeps replenishing with more people arriving, but at least nothing is sold out when you get to ordering. I arrived at 5:20 PM on a Sunday and there was already a substantial number of people waiting to place a takeout order. There is a staff member who goes through the line just to ask if you're going to be dining in or taking out. You can get a seat at their counter inside to dine in, but otherwise there is not much room inside. Some people put in their orders and get a line beer ($5 Polar pilsner) to drink outside while waiting.

I do appreciate that you can take your takeout pizza box and sit on the patio to eat your purchases. They have a water cooler with cups available for people in line and on the patio outside. Trust me when I say it is needed for surviving standing in line this humid sweltering Miami weather. They even have a rack to throw your pizza box if you finish eating your pizza so they can recycle the boxes.

They take and put together an order at a time, so you get pandemic times vibes being allowed inside to place an order at the counter. The door is shut after someone comes out and another person is allowed inside. A great way to increase the anticipation of placing an order, and an ingenious way to make me want to order a slice more than I had intended.

I didn't get any sauces on the side since I'm a purist about enjoying the dish as is before adding other flavorings, but I know now to return for sauces. The pizza slices themselves were lovely. They were all dressed with pillowy shreds of parmesan that allowed the cheese aroma to float as you took a bite. The Pepperoni Proper ($8.25) was fantastically unctuous and had those curly pepperoni slices that give that nice crunch when you bite in. I haven't been on the hot honey train for very long, but the sweetness of the honey really gave a new dimension to the flavor of the pie. It could have been spicier---I couldn't pick up on any of the hot flavor. The Leeks on Bacon ($9.25) was unfortunately way too rich for me. I had been excited to try this because I love the sweetness of leeks when they are cooked, and it's hard to find leek employing dishes. On paper, a garlic confit cream sounds delightful, but it was quite heavy on the cream, even spread out on the crust. The bacon they used was mostly fat when you took a close look at the slices. And remember, they topped the pizza with that fluffy shredded parmesan. The La Salsera ($8.25) was very intriguing to me, and it came off more of a marinara sauce pizza with that signature squiggle of pesto sauce. I couldn't see or taste a lot of the vodka sauce that is supposed to be the third sauce on the pie, but the combination of the densely flavored sauces with the parmesan was delightful to see and taste.

What I feel makes the pizza pies special to eat is the crust. It is the closest to bread dough that I've seen, which makes it a great part of the pizza to eat in its own right, with or without sauce or toppings. I hope no one throws these crusts away, but if I see any of my friends doing so with these crusts, I would without a doubt eat them.

The price tag of the pizzas ($47-63 for specialty whole pies) would not let me make a regular trip here, but it is certainly a nice treat for yourself on occasion. Get yourself in line, sip a line beer and see what the...

Very nice place if you are searching for pizza! The place is remodeled, nice looking, and very clean. It has indoor and outdoor areas. The menu is small. They offer only 5 different kinds of pizzas - by the slice or 20’’ pie. Also, there is a drink menu that has a good selection of beverages. It was my first time trying this place, so I decided to order a few different slices of pizza - Margherita, Pepperoni, and Mushroom Truffle. And I absolutely loved every single flavor! My favorite one would be the Mushroom Truffle one! It tasted super delicious! Also, in the Pepperoni flavor, I liked the added sweet spicy sauce (it was optional; the cashier asked me specifically if I wanted that sauce added) which gave the pizza a great taste! The sizes of the pizzas were pretty big. I would say that 2 pieces is the right amount per person if you are hungry. If you are slightly hungry, just go with 1 piece. Prices at the pizzeria are generally reasonable. The most expensive pizza is the Mushroom Truffle one which is $10.75 or $63 for the whole pizza pie. But it is really worth trying! I have read many reviews that the pizzeria is always busy. When I got there Thursday night around 8:15 p.m., all the tables outside and inside were occupied, and there was a little line for tables. But I was lucky because the take-out line had only 2 persons before me. I was waiting for like 8 min to place my order. The place does not accept cash, by the way! They have this notice on the entrance door. To prepare my order it took them only 5 min. But leaving the place, I was shocked because the waiting line for take-out already had like 12 people! Yes, I confirm that this place is very busy! I absolutely recommend this pizzeria if you are searching for nice tasty pizza in Miami and you want it by the slice. The pizzeria’s location is tricky, by the way. The area around is still being built and developing, so walking to this place is kind of complicated; the neighborhoods around can seem unsafe. But if you drive, you are fine. Looking forward to going back and trying the rest of the...

This review makes it to three stars because the slice itself is fairly decent. To quote Taylor, I’d experienced their reputation about how they keep people waiting because they refuse to expand and staff up. I hadn’t been here since first opened and the lines went around the block and I didn’t even get a chance to try #foodieptsd

A few years in, I was in the area tonight with friends and gave this place a shot again. My friends got here earlier and were seated and while the line was manageable when I got there, we still had to stand line. This place doesn’t have table service outside, and even inside it is questionable. A friend who ordered their pepperoni “proper” with straciatella even had told she had to spread the cheese herself, that they don’t do so for outside tables. I have a sport injury and shouldn’t be standing around so one of my friends offered to bring my slice. Maybe these guys have not heard about the ADA..

I have a sports injury and this place has a takeout line whether you’re heading back home or sitting with friends which meant I would have to stand. While in the epic wait, we are informed that type two of their pizza types had run out. Oh and we had to deal with an unhoused person screaming, cussing and slamming chairs in the patio. While sympathizing for the person, I was more concerned for my personal safety. Nobody from their staff offered to help out.

After one of my friends picked up both of our slices, I was finally able to eat. Was the pizza tasty? It was pretty good, the crust was nice & the pepperoni and hot honey (mild for my taste buds was pretty decent.) But not $8 decent. The fact we had to get our own utensils and napkins and apply a condiment sealed not wanting to tip.

Would I try them again if I happen to be in the area and there’s no line? Perhaps. Would I rush out of my way to eat there? In the words of President Putin, Nyet. No. Non Pas…not until they become more Considerate for their customers and not artificially...
