Home Slice Pizza 1415 South Congress Street, Austin TX http://www.homeslicepizza.com/
We visited Home Slice Pizza last night. It was my first visit there, only my husband had been previously. We arrived about 5:30pm, there were 4 adults and 3 kids under 10. The wait for indoor seating was 30 minutes but we could be seated outside immediately. The temperature at the time was 101 degrees. We decided to go ahead and eat outside. That was a great choice. We sat at a picnic table in the shade with large fans blowing. The kids were given plates of dough to play with (VERY NICE TOUCH). We ordered a family style spinach salad, garlic knots, large 1/2 pepperoni and 1/2 cheese pizza and a medium Margherita pizza. I thought the pizza was great and I liked the New York style crust. Our friends from St. Louis and used to St. Louis style pizza weren't as enamored but chowed it down anyway. The atmosphere was definitely Austin with colorful body art on almost everyone (I enjoy that) and very friendly. There were a few 20 somethings (of which I am not) that sat down in front of one of the fans and smoked (remember, we were outside) which blew it right at us but our server was great and asked them to move, which they were very cool with.
I liked it and would eat there again. We paid about $63 for our meal (non-alcoholics drinks/not including tip). I definitely recommend this if you like pizza, Austin culture, have kids
