We went to Olce tonight to try out their highly reviewed pizza. We show up without a reservation and get a funny look. The place is virtually empty and all we could get was an uncomfortable picnic table outside. That's fine but we ate and left and there were many unused tables during the entire time we were there. Strange way to do business. It appeared the diners there were the oddballs who show up to a pizza place with own coolers/insulated bags with their BYO wine and beer.
As for their pizza (I am a bit of a pizza snob).... we ordered the Margherita and the Dennis. I tried both and they were really unimpressive. The Margherita had almost no topping and what was there slid off in an oil slick. The Dennis was a bit more substantial but nothing to rave about. The crust on both was totally bland (like a matzo) and burnt on the bottom. If you looking for "fancy" or different pizza, I say go to Earth on Germantown Ave in Mt Airy. IMO, hands down better than this fare.
I would not recommend this place for their pizza. We did not have any salads so I cannot...

We tried the Autumn and the Bianco, the latter of which was incredible, unlike any pizza I’ve had before (named after Chris Bianco, who changed the pizza game in America). The complimentary pickles were awesome too. Really looking forward to coming back and trying more pies, especially the s’mores one!
Seating is limited, so definitely make reservations. Picture included is of what was left of the Bianco, as I didn’t get a chance to take one before we...
Read moreI am shocked that the rating for Olce is 4.5 stars. A friend and I just went last night and we were not impressed to say the least. We both ordered margherita pizzas and they were drenched in olive oil. When we'd go to pick up a slice all of the cheese would slide off because there was such an excessive amount of olive oil. We asked for new pizzas and the waitress first tried to tell us it was supposed to be a "wet" pizza. They did bring us out new pizzas and didn't charge us for them which is why I'm giving them 2 stars. Even still, neither of us could bring ourselves to finish the other pizzas. Will not be returning to...
