Slice House by Tony Gemignani

"We came on Thursday evening around 6pm and it was busy. We decided to have the pizza to go and we still had to wait some time after picking our pizza. They have different specialty everyday and we decided to try them. - Red top (Detroit style): we love the soft & fluffy bread and the crispy cheese edges. The tomato sauce was delicious and it was very cheesy. Delicious! - Chicken ranch (NY style): love the flavor of chicken & bacon and it was also super cheesy. However, the dough was a bit soggy from all the toppings. - Webbs double sausage (NY style): love the crispy dough but the edge crust was overcooked & hard. The sausage & pepperoni were generous and delicious!"

"Why do I even bother coming back to give them a try? I ordered a Sicilian traditional slice. The pizza that they had behind the glass counter was loaded with pepperoni and sausage as was the photo on their website. But what I got was far from that. Where’s the meat?!? ::::::: Since they opened about a month ago, I have been back over five times. The first time I popped in was during the soft opening. That visit and the following ones within the first week, were great. Pizzas had a great baked crusts even after the re-heat. Gorgeous looking slices, outstanding flavors for either dine in or take out. Five stars. But as the weeks have gone by, the slices are slacking. Over baked, less cheese, the sauce has lost its zing. They don’t quite taste the same. The past three times, the slices were over baked giving it a dry, tough texture. Aww. Sad. Because when they are done right, oooohhh it’s delicious!!! So they gotta work on the cooking consistency. My faves are the sweet Gino $6.60 a slice. It’s a focaccia style thick, square pizza crust. When it’s done right, the crust should be airy, dense with a soft chew, light crispness with great flavors. It should taste buttery with no oilness with beautiful hues of golden crust colors. Not brown. The sweet tomato sauce had a nice depth of flavor and balanced with drizzle of thick balsamic. The pizza had slices of mozzarella and garnished with strips of basil. They use slices of avorio and ovoline mozzarella. Quality stuff. Creamy melt. Sicilian Traditional slice- $6.60. It has pepperoni and sausage toppings on focaccia crust. Clean, classic flavors when the bake is done right. You can get a slice (average $7) or whole pie ($22-38) in various styles: New York, Grandma, Sicilian, and Detroit. They also have salads, pastas, and dessert options. The patio and inside dining area is tiny."

"Great new pizza spot in Folsom. The pizza slices are very generous. Nice crispy bottom. Definitely not soggy New York style pizza... Plus Detroit style pizza with beautiful crunchy cheesy edges. They have Sicilian style pizza too but I haven't that one. Friendly helpful staff! The wait for a whole pizza was a little long but definitely worth the wait. The 20-in pizzas are huge!! If you have hungry teenagers at home, I definitely recommend this place."

"First timer, I'll definitely return. Slice of the day was "Detroit style Tony Jack" square pan pizza which was fantastic. Crispy edges, light airy dough cooked thoroughly but not overcooked, with mildly spicy sauce and toppings. One slice and I was full. Dog Friendly patio with ample seating about the same size as the indoor seating. I took two other slice varieties home to share later with my wife. Priced reasonably for the quality of the food. Today April 23 was the official ribbon cutting ceremony with Folsom Mayor, Tony G and the new franchise owner in attendance, among others. I was here at lunchtime a few hours before the ceremony. I was able to have a quick chat with Tony G as he took a short break outside. With new franchises open and many in the works, opportunities for great pizza abound."

"As a huge Pizza fan, not to mention Tony's in SF is my favorite pizza, I was not 100% satisfied with my visit. Granted they are new, I'll have to come back in a month or so to give them another try. The Hawaiian Hit Man was actually really good Detroit style, but was chewy. The Purple Potato was extremely chewy and hard, although I did like the toppings so I'll have to give it another try. Didn't taste fresh to me. If you want Tony's its worth the trip to SF and you will get Tony's . I wanted to give feedback while I was there however they were extremely busy during lunch time. I will be sure to come back and give it another review in a month or so. **Updated Review 1 Month Later on 4/23** Pizza was much better this time all around! I got 1 slice of the Detroit style Tony Jack which is my new favorite Detroit style by Tonys! It was amazing I will get this for sure next time. The crust was exceptionally fresh! I had to get back in line and get the Picante and it was super good and fresh! Best part of the experience was I ran into Tony G himself, Super Nice Guy! I will continue coming here hats off to the staff the have absolutely improved the freshness! I will be back"
