The South Portlander

Plaza 29 Convenience Store, on Western Ave near Olde English Village, sells pizza by the slice and it’s not too shabby.  Not the best I’ve ever had, but pretty decent.  Redbank General Store on Westbrook St also sells slices, which I haven’t tried yet.

Sbarro would be my last choice, and only if I was desperate!

I happen to be a big fan of Amato’s pizza.  It hasn’t usually been too saucy when I’ve had it; maybe they just had a very liberal saucer on the day you went.

Are there any other places in the area that sell slices?

You’re right about Sbarro. I don’t know what I was thinking…

Amato’s just doesn’t do it for me, however. I like a big dose of garlic and oil with my pizza. Amato’s always tastes more sweet to me.

As far as other places… I know the South Portland House of Pizza doesn’t sell slices. Not sure about Willows…

who would go to the mall if they were looking for a decent slice?  isn’t half the appeal of a slice is that you illegally park out front, run in, and you’re eating by the time you hit the drivers seat one minute later?  as for the others, i gotta say that what is needed is a crispy dough slice, a triangle that holds its shape, something that’s really italian, something isn’t really a hot tomatoey sandwich hiding out as a slice.  there are no good options on slices in south portland.  i think we’re all still waiting.

Come on, now, South Portland is a pizza capital.  You’ve only just scratched the surface of our pizza parlors.  Let’s have another story rating ALL the pizza places (not just by-the-slice places).  Here’s a bunch of pizza places in SP that I can think of.  East end: South Portland House of Pizza, DiPietro’s, Pizza Joint, Angelone’s, Papa John’s, Domino’s, Amato’s, and JP Thornton’s.
West end: Willow’s, Portland Pie Co. (Main Street), Ricetta’s, Pizzeria Uno’s, Pizza Hut Italian Bistro, Sbarro’s, Amato’s, and Chuck E. Cheese (haha - go on, they sell mainly pizza, you know).
And that doesn’t even include sandwich shops, restaurants and others that sell pizza along with their other offerings.
My faves: Pizza Joint when I have the money, SP House of Pizza when the wallet is lighter.

I love eating pepperoni pizza. I also baked a home-made pizza, my kids loves it, as they help me preparing it every Sundays, they were the one putting sausage and mushrooms with their own designs.

This is simply GREAT! Your articles are more than awesome… Must admit that you are one of the best bloggers I ever saw.Thanks for posting this informatve article with us.

Come on, the biggest added attraction at Angelone’s is TRINA--you gotta love her and it will keep you coming back for more--and good pizza too. Thin crust, old standby sauce, no attempt at frills--just reliable and dependable. Just wish she stayed open LATER!!
