Urban Slice

Sometimes you're just craving a big greasy floppy slice of cheap pepperoni pizza and only your cardiologist will really fault you for that. It's a comfort food. Unfortunately this place only hits a few of those already low marks consistently. It's always greasy and pizza. It isn't cheap. Sometimes the crust is the perfection of thin crust pizza baking, but usually it is just hard as a rock if not burnt. Also, annoyingly, is the tendency for a slice of insert-topping pizza looking like a slice of cheese pizza. Nothing wrong with cheese pizza until you try to call it sausage pizza, folks. Menu offerings aside from pizza disappear despite appearing popular. Calzones were always in short supply while offered because they were good. Why stop selling one of the things you consistently did right? Service is done by students who generally appear to be on autopilot. It's functional, but sometimes can lead to further frustration with an already disappointing meal.

Worst slice of pizza I’ve had in six years in Madison. Soggy dough for most of the slice but stale at the crust, too salty, barely edible.

My wife and I had the pleasure of eating at Urban Slice many times since moving to Madison a couple of years ago. We were both born and raised in New York so we know a little bit about authentic New York Style pizza and Urban Slice did not disappoint! Not only was this the best pizza that we have ever had outside of New York but it was one of the best pizza that we have ever had period! My wife is not a big pizza lover and she loved this pizza. The pizza is thin crusted with just the right amount of spices in the sauce and just the right amount of mozzarella cheese. In addition the meatball topping that we ordered was delicious. It was not just ground beef but a real Italian meatball topping. We are moving to Madison soon and this will be our regular pizza place. If you value the opinion of two New Yorkers on good New York Pizza then don’t just walk here for their pizza…RUN!!!

I work on campus and eat here often. When it's good, it's good. When it's bad....oh boy. A few times I've walked in and all the pizzas have been burned to a black crisp, yet they're sitting there waiting to be sold as if it's all good. Their cheese bread also seems to change completely on a monthly basis; I assume because they just buy whatever is the cheapest at the time? The staff are always good and the price is right. They just desperately need some quality control!

The first time the pizza was burnt. Second time pizza was even more burnt. Will not be trying a third time.
