I came here for lunch by myself and got a slice of pepperoni pizza ($45). I thought the pizza was good. One question you might ask is whether it's "authentic New York-style pizza" as it claims to be. Personally, I think good beats authentic any day, so it doesn't particularly matter, but I would say this is close in character to many slices I had in Jersey and New York city. It falls short in a number of ways: the crust is a little too thin and crispy. I attribute this to Slice's use of Italian
I thought the pizza was good. One question you might ask is whether it's "authentic New York-style pizza" as it claims to be.

It falls short in a number of ways: the crust is a little too thin and crispy. I attribute this to Slice's use of Italian 00 flour, rather than American bread flour. They seem proud of the fact, which is bizarre, given how inauthentic it is. The sauce is fine, and the cheese is distributed appropriately. I got far too few pepperoni slices (3 and some crumbles). Finally, the slice was way less greasy than I'd expect (see what I mean about not all authenticity being good?)
That said, there's not lots for a lover of New York style-ish pizza in HK. After the closure of Pizzeria Pubblico, I believe only Slices and Paisano's pretend to do NY pizza, and Paisano's is neither good* nor passable as NY style. So I would definitely eat here again.
*I mean the Paisano's near me, at Hollywood near the escalators. I hear its original branch in Sai Kung is much better.
