Pinching Pennies With PizzaBy Cathy Cassinos-Carr |
From April 2008
Penny-pincher alert: Pizza-by-the-slice places are proliferating in the Sacramento area, offering big slices of pie that don’t take a big slice out of your wallet. Mangia! COST:$2.25, making it the cheapest slice around, though also the smallest at only 4½ ounces. But don’t let that fool you: It was plenty filling.Pieces 1309 21st St., Sacramento Mushroom slice, robust with cheese and garlic, and an unusually tasty crust. A tad on the greasy side, though. COST:$3.75 for a hefty 10¾-ounce sliceUncle Vito’s 1501 16th St., Sacramento Veggie slice with pesto, sliced tomatoes and feta cheese. Loved the thin, crisp, easy-to-fold New York-style crust, but watery tomatoes drowned out the flavor. COST:$3.50 for a generous 10-ounce sliceLuigi’s Slice 1050 20th St., Suite 150, Sacramento Hawaiian slice, generously loaded with Canadian bacon and chunks of sweet pineapple on Luigi’s fantastically crispy crust. COST:$3.75 for a huge 10½-ounce sliceSbarro Arden Fair, Sacramento “Supreme” slice with pepperoni, sausage, bell pepper, mushroom and onion, gooey with cheese and a very tomatoey sauce on a thick, doughy crust. COST:$3.99 for an enormous 10¾-ounce slice (could easily feed two)The verdict Biggest: Pieces and Sbarro (tie)Cheapest (but smallest): Village BakeryTastiest: Luigi’s Sliceadvertisement

Reader Comments:
Totally agree with the verdict on Luigi's slice. By FAR the tastiest in the area. Wonderful crust, Tasty toppings, and I love their homemade ranch dressing and sausage. Hawaiian is delicious, but I don't even consider it their best, try the pesto to be wowed(I asked, they only have it on Fridays and Saturdays though)Really guys, for the value and taste, there's no competition!
