Experience: 10/10
Home slice is located on South Congress Ave in Austin Texas. If you are driving and you don't know what it looks like or what you are looking for, it might be hard to locate while driving. The building is pretty small, the sign is far back, and the pizza guy that is on the corner doesn't really look like it fits in with the rest of the restaurant. However, if you do find it, I bet you that you will love this place. There isn't a lot of parking but there is a church thing right across the street where you are able to park for free and walk across a non-busy street to get there.
As mentioned previously, the building is pretty small. There is outdoor seating in the front of the building and near the side. I believe that they also have backyard seating as well as in-building seating. When you walk in, you can clearly see that it is a cramped space, with ovens, shelves of pizza, a seating area, and of course, people. You can order inside but I personally recommend ordering at the little window on the outside. There's just more space and not as hot while you are there.
The pizza is pretty good quality, fresh, and huge for a good price. One piece of pepperoni pizza is about $3 but the pizza is bigger than your face so it is a lot of food. They offer drinks, different kinds of pizza and salads. They come out pretty fast as well and most of the time, the waiters will deliver the pizza right to the spot you decided to sit and eat. So that's an added benefit.
Is it fast food? Or is it a restaurant? I don't know. A combination of the 2 probably. You can opt into getting this food delivered or take away. You can also seat yourself. But a lot of people who decide to sit down and eat there are spending some time walking around south congress shopping and drinking so it's almost always popping.
Just be prepared to be surrounded by a lot of people when you go, regardless of what time it is. There's almost always a rush.
