@jordanduran2131 no its not. Pedrosos in austin is where it's at if you want a new york style pizza. I really think Dave should definitely visit pedrosos next time he's in austin. All the others are a joke. Pedrosos is the only place I've had that I think comes closest to anything in the east coast.
Dave looks much better now since he got the plugs and is working out. The manager seems like an OK guy even if Dave isn't taking him seriously. One bite everyone knows the rules
Obviously people comment on this elsewhere so judging these comments alone is stupid, but my god. Did you not see the vid from $1 slice day? He sees Dave again and basically drops to his knees in reverence. Clearly Pres did something for this guy's life with the kind words and exposure in general. And the footnote he added at the end of this video was real, didn't just come from Dave's character of Pres. Show me another time that Dave had patience enough to let someone else finish more than 2 sentences. No offence to Dave but unless you're Mr. Kraft, he's going to find a way to cut you off. It's not a small thing, this guy was truly appreciative and anyone who watches pizza reviews should understand it's about more than just dough and cheese and sauce what Dave did. Love this.
The red beanie guy was a nut case. Pres didnt want to make any sudden movement. The guy seemed like someone on the verge of a tweaking rage. 😂😂😂 Pres was sooo uncomfortable from the start. You could tell.😂🤣😂😂
As a Native NY'er, in Austin on Business, I was told about HomeSlice by Mike Rocco from Austin Speed Shop, a NY transplant to TX.... I thought it was a great slice... Was it the best? Was it a New Park? NO... It was an above average slice from NY... I'd go 7.
I'd give it about a 7, too. It's a decent slice. Best slice I've ever had was at Joe's on Carmine in NYC. Never been to New Haven, CT. Those pizzas look amazing!
I lived there and I don't buy single slices but got whole pies there all the time, thought it was real good. Around 7 is a really fair score. If you really want a treat get their Italian sub, that's easily around a 9.
I haven’t eaten at The Home Slice in years at this point, but when I lived in Austin, it was definitely better than a 5.4. That place used to be consistently busy (that’s why they opened the second slice shop next door to the full restaurant). And I’ve been to NY and had LOTS of terrible pizza in the time I was there (and, mind you, some incredibly great pizza as well). In fact, some of the pizza I had in New York, it was so bad, I couldn’t even finish 1 slice. The point is, just because it is made in NY, doesn’t automatically mean you are getting a quality product. And for God’s sake, if you ever find yourself in NY, stay away from any place claiming to sell pizza for $1 a slice!
NY pizza even from a place that isn't in NYC and just a hole in the wall is better than Homeslice. Sorry. Lived in NY 27 years, NYC, upstate, midstate, downstate, better than Homeslice. I like Homeslice. I live in Austin now. Love Austin more than NY. The meatball sub at homeslice is decent. But the pizza is whatever. Not good. Not bad. Not anything. NY pizza even when it's not good it's at least something. Homeslice is total medicority. The atmosphere of the place is great, the employees rock, but the pizza is a 5.0. Nothing lower, nothing higher.
Never been to NY but homeslice is good but sometimes it is better then other times. I'd say that 8.4 was about right. It's definitely one of the better places for pizza in austin. Dave about a year ago did a review on pedroso's which is a trailer on burnet and I've had that pizza and he scored that higher than homeslice with a 7.7. That's also why that 8.4 seems about right instead of that 5.4. Could've had em on a bad day or something else
i went a few months ago while i was in austin and my slice looked a lot better than the one he got. it was really crispy almost too crispy, it had no flop whatsoever. so maybe they adjusting it. still was only slightly better than an average chain pizza
Why's red beenie dude got to trash talk Jack in the Box? When you're hella stoned at 3am, after leaving the regretful Tinder Date's house. An Oreo Cookie shake, Curly Fries and a slew of 2 for 99 cent deep-fried tacos, are DA BOMB!!!
Wow, i had this slice yesterday for the first time, its definitely not the same as what dave got here...i was intrigued to see what he'd score it, but dont take this video as a reference because it's def improved since then
At least he's more honest w ppl now. Ppl have to know they suck. Usually it takes you to tell them, and hopefully they don't categorize you as a hater, so they can improve.
You'd be lucky to be so passionate about anything in your life. Dave is one person rating the pizza. Everyone has their own tastes. 4.7 stars with over 4,000 google reviews. That's 1000 times more telling than Daves score.
Well, also I've watched probably a hundred of these, this guy isn't a food critic. He's a personality. His taste and attention to detail is completely subjective. Watch his review with Jon Taffer. When Taffer starts actually reviewing the food he's impressed, because he really doesn't know what he's talking about. These videos are fun though. I'll keep watching and that's all prez really wants.
@@aguy1883 so you've had all the pizza in Texas? Lmao there's actually a lot of good pizza in Texas. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to make a good pizza.
Did he really?! I totally missed that. I just watched his newest upload where he scored this mess of a pizza a 5.7 and I scratched my head comparing that slice to Austin's most popular showcased here as a 5.8...there's no resemblance!
Ya, no way Giordanos got a better score than home slice, idc if gios is a deep dish those ingredients used to make a gios pizza to the ingredients used to make home slice pizza is apples n oranges.
Texas doesn’t know shit about pizza 🍕 lived there 20 years. NowI live on the East Coast eating in New York, Connecticut,Jersey and Pennsylvania. Those states know pizza . Seattle doesn’t know shit either where I was born and raised .
Haha No Holds Barred, I've ate there before I thought it was tasty, but if you compare it to the Best Pizza in the US and there are many it sounds like it can't even compete, I'll still eat there though since NY is across the country.
Have you ever tried Hoboken Pie on 7th and Red River? Not sure how it is now, but I worked there for a while in 2017 and it was damn fucking good, nice and crispy. Pretty sure Dave would have liked that one better.
@@Smiley-Coyote I have not but I did just read something recently that th Hoboken was the best pizza in town. I move out in a month so i will have to give it a shot for sure.
@@Smiley-Coyote ok, I ordered it and I would put it around the same maybe lower. The sauce was just terrible like most of the sauce around austin. I dont get it.
Brian Darlage Yeah I’m not surprised, I recently heard from other friends that the pizza quality has gone downhill since mid to late 2018. Must be new management now because when I worked there in early to late 2017 the sauce was spectacular and there was always a line of people put the door stretching down to the corner of Red river and 8th especially on the Friday- Sunday night shifts.
@@briandarlage9815 Jersey Giant Pizza. It isn't the greatest pie ever...but it's damn good. And the best pizza I have eaten in Austin that is NY style. Love their pachanga. If you happen to know the cook at a Conan's...or are willing to gamble...their Chicago style can be pretty damn good. But my friend quit, and I had some very meh experiences. So I haven't really been back.
It is not the best in Austin. But how can you tell with a reheated slice? You have to get it fresh out of the oven to judge pizza. I give Home Slice about a 7.5. It will do but not like the NY Pizaa I grew up with.
You should be tasting bbq in Texas, much less Austin. We are not known for our pizza, and more for bbq, but I’m always looking for a thin crust pie similar to some tasted in CT or NY. Again, we are known more for our bbq.....
I’m from Philly and I’ve lived down south for the last seven years and there’s no such thing as pizza here. Unless it’s Pizza Hut dominoes or little Skeezers. It’s very depressing.
Prez you must have been in a pissy mood or something, that is NOT 6.4 pizza. Ive eaten pizza like yourself mostly they NY,CT Mass area ( Uber Drive ) but visiting my nephew in Austin. it is soooooo 8.5 level slice. this guy CARES about the whole process. I respectfully disagree with you on this review. My #! place Sally in Ct or Johns of Bleeker in NY

Lived in New York. Via 313 in Austin is best pizza in America.
Shoulda gotten a whole pie from next door at the original location, not the walk up counter. This would've been awesome with McConaughey as a guest.
Its a 5.4 bruh get over it, one bite everybody knows the rules
@@salythaone he’s right though, it is way better as a whole pie. Slices are just reheated pre-made
You must be from Austin to know this. He got the reheated pizza, you go next door for that real Homeslice experience. Via 313 still better though..
Why wouldn't he be passionate? In 2018, 3196 Yelp reviews, 4.5 stars.

holy shit, you did the hook em horns sign at 1:32 followed by the shocker sign. classic!
You gotta come back and have VIA 313 or DeSanos. Those are the best slice in town.
313 is Detroit style so can’t compare
Well since your from New York you are used to the best of the best pizza, but for the south people give it 8-10
Grew up and live in Austin, went to homeslice growing up. Ironically I’ve always gotten their cold cuts lol
El Prez, give VIA 313 a try next time you're in town!
slice out for the homeless brought me here. good shit davey
