My wife, my in-laws and myself were walking around downtown Wilmington when we all decided it was time for something to eat. We decided on Fork and Cork but the wait was too long so we decided to go across the street to Slice of Life. We walked in and sat ourselves and it wasn’t too long before our server “AM” arrived to take our drink orders. My wife ordered half and half teas for herself, our grandson and me. Our waitress promptly asked “What’s that?” Not “which version?”, not “with tea or lemonade?”, and certainly “tea?” This should have been our first hint that being a waitress was not “AM’s” calling in life. Our drink orders arrived without issue and our waitress took our orders. My wife ordered a medium White Pizza for herself and her mother and I ordered a medium pizza with sausage, bacon, mushrooms and red onion. Eventually I excused myself to go to the bathroom and in the interim, our order arrived. When our order arrived, we received two medium white pizza’s with sausage, bacon, mushrooms and red onion. When my wife questioned our waitress about the order, she insisted that the bastardized white pizza’s in front of us was indeed what I ordered. At this point, everyone just went with it and was halfway through the first pizza by the time I returned. So the good news here is that the pizza turned out to be pretty good. The crust had good flavor and the right amount of crunch and the toppings were fresh and delicious. While the pizza was the saving grace of this little story, the pricing was another stick in the eye for Slice of Life. Because of the price of the white pizza and the expense of the additional toppings, our dinner was about 20 dollars more expensive than it should have been due to our waitress’s bungle. No offer of a fix by the waitress was offered and she was insistent that the delicious abomination pizza’s were indeed what we ordered. So, the bottom line for Slice of Life is that they are worth a try but make sure that your order is 100 percent correct or make sure that “AM” is either not working or has managed to get herself fired which I would think is the preferred response to her incompetence.

My husband and I stopped in for lunch since we saw that they had vegan cheese on their menu...I regret our choice. This was the worst pizza we've ever had- and we've had MANY vegan pizzas all over NC. We each started off with a side salad that was mostly watery iceberg lettuce (not fully rinsed) in a tiny bowl. We weren't hopeful after that. The vegan cheese pizza with "pepperoni" came out with gooey liquid like cheese spilling out everywhere. Not only was the liquid cheese gooey and barely hanging on to our pizza but it tasted awful. The crust was super thin and rubbery. We ended up scraping off the goo and just eating the crust only because we were starving and on our way home to Charlotte after our beach vacation. On top of the terrible food we also received poor service. Our server seemed nice enough at the start but never asked if we needed refills or if we needed anything else during our meal. I usually don't leave bad reviews but I want to be honest so that others who are searching for vegan cheese pizza (or pizza in general) don't make the same mistake we did.

Slice of Life Pizzeria & Pub is a recommendation from a fellow Vegan in North Carolina at a location with not too many Vegan options, thanks! Customer service is good; an employee is helpful with navigating the menu, kind, and mindful with the order. The Vegan pies are tasty. The pepperoni offers a sharp spicy taste that quickly dissipates after a few bites. The cheese is a good carrier of flavor/other ingredients though more so feels like a fluffy-filling Vegan option that satisfies a requirement for a pizza (for one looking for Vegan cheese on a pizza). The garlic and mushroom pie is delicious. The slices still taste good after about a day and a half outside of a fridge/freezer (with the box shut, in like a closet-room-temperature environment). The establishment has multiple televisions and feels like a decent space to mingle downtown. The establishment accepts different forms of payment.

Save your time and $, go down the road to I love NY Pizza. Your pizza won't be burnt, will have toppings (box won't feel like air), the staff is kind and quick. I've been here twice, I'll never return after today. I run a restaurant and I'll never recommend this place again. I just returned my order and will spend my money down the road for a real pizza with real toppings and kind staff. I hate to sound like a Karen, but this is twice now this happened. With little to no regard of mistake. Your staff opened my pizza box and wanted to run to management because how burnt and disgusting it looked. Extremely disappointing. Your night shift crew is amazing and sweet. The fact you'd serve what I spent this $ on is beyond me.

After a show at Live Oaks, we were looking for a bite. While in The Village Market, SoL was recommended for late night bites. We walked over and got right in. Only bar service, but could order full menu. Had to work through the people sitting at the bar, but it wasn't bad. We both got a couple of slices, and my wife grabbed a beer. Didn't take long till we heard our name called, and we grabbed our food. Thin crispy crust. Good-sized topping. All seemed very fresh. Decent sized inside with a good-sized patio out back with quite a few picnic tables. Located right on Market Street, within walking distance to lots. Good solid pie here. Staff was pretty friendly, especially seeing only 2 and was a bit busy.

My family and I visit Wilmington several times a year. Slice of Life is our go to for a quick, affordable, lunch that is always delicious. The atmosphere there is great as well. It’s always very clean, cozy and welcoming. The staff is always super friendly and helpful. You almost feel as if you’re eating at your hometown regular lunch spot. The food there is amazing especially for the price. We’ve never gotten a bad meal or bad service at Slice of Life. We can always count on them to be on point for our family. Thank you to the owners as well as the staff for providing such an amazing little pizza spot for our family over the years! We will see you again in August!
