Popular Northern California pizza chain Slice House by Tony Gemignani is finally making its way to Southern California, coming to Thousand Oaks at 3297 E Thousand Oaks Blvd Ste. #102.
Currently, the restaurant has six locations in Northern California and one in Nevada. Slice House, which also operates under the Pizza Rock brand, is also available in four different stadiums, such as Las Vegas’ new Allegiant Stadium. The company is now getting ready to open its seventh location sometime in 2023, according to its website. The new site will move into the former home of women’s clothing store Bull LLC, on the west side of the building, opposite La Esquina Mexican Grill.
Slice House started in San Francisco’s North Beach neighborhood as Tony’s Coal Fired Pizza. Prior to that, Tony Gemignani served as the chef and owner of the renowned restaurant Tony’s Pizza Napoletana. Now, through Slice House, Gemignani has spread his delicious pizza with the rest of California and Nevada. The pizza itself is somewhat charred and slightly chewy and uses low-moisture mozzarella from Brooklyn. Slice House features various pizzas available by the slice or a whole pie. The restaurant also has Sicilian-style pizza, deep dish, coal fire pizza, and Detroit-style, plus subs, sandwiches, and other Italian classics.
“Tony’s Coal Fired Pizza and Slice House pays homage to two very different styles of pizza, New York and New Haven,” according to the company’s original website. “One of the only pizzerias of its kind on the West Coast, customers can find authentic New Haven and Connecticut-style pizza cooked in a genuine coal-fired oven. Upon the first taste and smell, you will find why Tony’s Coal Fired Pizza is one of the best.”
