and I am willing to bet at least an acre of that is
Classic Slice in Milwaukee. While I realize that pizza preferences are very personal, I think it would be hard to find someone who didn't think that Classic Slice pizza would classify as at least "good". In my book it's FANTASTIC. Recent yelp
reviews have shown that a lot of people agree with me!
I remember the first time I ate a slice. I kept telling Mark, "Oh my goodness.... this is the best pizza, omg it's so good. Seriously, wow, this pizza is amazing." He got a little tired of me after a while and said, "Why don't you write about it." So my dear boy, here I go, approximately... 6 months later.
Classic Slice Pizza is now conveniently located in TWO Milwaukee neighborhoods,
Bay View and
North Ave. As the name suggests they sell pizza by the slice and whole pies. They also feature vegan pizza for those of you who like to avoid animal products. My personal favorite is the Satyricon Sausage with features feta, sausage, mushrooms and peppers.
What makes Classic Slice is a success in Milwaukee is the "everyone is welcome, feel at home' vibe it sets off. I think this might be an important part of their success because in my pizza loving experience I have noticed other by-the-slice places tend to cater to the bar crowd rather than the neighborhood folks. This is not the case at Classic Slice.
The fact that this is the most authentic New York style pizza it town probably helps a ton too. It has a sweeter more tomato-y sauce than your average pizza chain and their ingredients always seem to be the freshest of fresh. The owner wanted you to be able to fold your slice in half, and boy can you ever!
