There's something shameful about the slice.
The slice is pizza for one, one slice out of eight.
One is the loneliest number as goes a song lyric.
"What's the matter, pal, don't you have at least one person who wants to share a pizza pie with you"?
The slice has none of the panache of "one and done", a quick pint at the pub.
The slice doesn't have the street cred of a red hot from a street cart, either. The slice usually comes from inside, eaten inside.
In some joints, the slice comes from a pizza that no one wanted, ordered but left forgotten on the rack at the store.
At least, Original Italian Pizza has taken the shame away from the slice. The pizzas available for slices are set out on handsome glass shelfs. The pizzas for slices are baked for the slice shelf.
Plus, street types can enjoy their one hand dinner sitting on a tall stool, looking out the window, perched like a nighthawk gazing out into the Manlius dark. The , sliced from a tree with dark heart wood looks far better than nasty hard to clean, plastic counters at lesser joints.
Heavens, this brightly lit corner shop has barn wood paneling inside and clean windows., One could stare out and have a good think as one digests.

My next complaint is that they charge a 4.99 delivery fee and no where on there site does it state that!! The driver is not door dash or grub hub but OIP's own driver!! Mind you I live a block away and had I been told this in advance I would have canceled! I was getting over covid otherwise I would have picked it up myself! I left a message for the owner Rosario to call me back but never heard from him! I will never order from there again and I will tell my friends and neighbors to...
Read moreAt my local OIP the food was average. The cashier was very inexperienced. On Mondays the pizza is 5$ off but we were almost scammed luckily I spoke up and got my 5$ off, but I would expect the cashier would take the 5$ off automatically and tell us. Also the wait was awful it was 1 hour when we were told 15 minuets and some people came in ordered at the counter and got their food before us. I would also like to add that the delivery guy left after we got there and came back before we got our food. The food is definitely not worth the wait. Might I add that the prices are so expensive. I would not recommend OIP if you coming through town and looking for...
