A local journalist and an IT expert/movie producer decided to make a major career change in the early 2000s. The married couple, Jen and Joseph Strickland, wanted to open their own pizza shop. Since they didn't have much experience in the culinary business, they enlisted the help of Jen's college roommate and seasoned restaurateur Terri Hannifin. Together, the trio opened the first Home Slice Pizza in 2005. Today, the homegrown business boasts multiple locations, including a new pizzeria in the North Loop.
Grab a slice or order an entire pie to enjoy at the mom-and-pop shop. Savor something simple like the margherita pizza, which features a layer of mozzarella topped with diced Roma tomatoes and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil, plus fresh garlic and basil. When you're craving something more unique, opt for the pie topped with eggplant parm or chopped white clams. The eatery also serves up some subs, calzones, and a handful of salads and apps.
