Pieces Pizza by the Slice: Discover Sacramento's Favorite Pizza Destination

Was in a hurry when I got to the store... But when I got in line and I saw that there was ONE SINGLE SOLITARY man making all the pies and maning the register by himself... I didn't have the heart to do anything but patiently wait. EVERYONE FELT BAD FOR HIM. So we all patiently waited for him to finish making our pies or heat our slices. PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS A CASH ONLY ESTABLISHMENT. I did not know that when I got there but a really cool guy in line let me cash app him some $$ and he paid for my food. Atmosphere was awesome considering there could have been a lot of angry people but we were all human beings recognize the situation for what it was. And hey... The pizza is great !! TOTALLY WORTH IT.

We really enjoyed this place. Needed a good slice before a show. The gentleman working the kitchen put out fresh pizza. Pepperoni was great, almost a new York style. The crust is rolled over the sauce/cheese, which adds a great level of flavor when you get to the crust. Almost like stuffed crust, but not gimmicky. He even gave us samples of his pesto pizza, which were really good. I particularly enjoyed the pesto, sundried tomatoes, and feta cheese pizza sample that he gave us (for free!). This is my by the slice spot when I'm in the area.

Best pesto pizza I have ever had! One massive slice is plenty. Have been there twice with two different friends and it’s unanimous = BEST PIZZA IN SAC! Met the owner Jackie who has been throwing pies there for 33 years-ask her for a few feta crumbles to try with the pesto. Don't go expecting fancy decor though....CASH ONLY

Holy cow! This pizza was sooooo good! I don't know what magic they use to get the pizza dough so crispy and soft at the same time. The cheese has an excellent bite and has a great flavor. If you like garlic I'd highly recommend adding it. Soo good! Definitely will be back!

Perfect spot for a slice, especially for late night cravings. I went late on Friday Feb 20 and the two guys working were so nice. They seem to really like their jobs and had positive attitudes. I had the Pesto with pepperoni and it was actually a good mix and my friend had regular pepperoni. The dough consistency was excellent. Slightly crunchy crust and super soft dough, great cheese pull. I even enjoyed the leftovers (reheating on low with lid on frying pan). ... That night i even had an emergency when I drove home then realized I forgot my bag there. I called in and the guys grabbed it for me and held it for me even after closing to make sure I could come back to pick it up. They went above and beyond. Thanks, Pieces!

I have been coming here since I moved to Sacramento in 2000. I don't live in Sac anymore but make the 2 hour trip from my current town to have pizza. Can't go wrong here! Cash only but cash is king!

My pal Chug Martin and his gal Little Sipper just moved to Sactown from Chitown because they're tired of hearing gunshots all night long! Yeah, I never liked Chicago either, I told him as we walked over to Pieces, the Pizza by the Slice joint. Being just 6 blocks away from Pieces, I think Chug and his little stab are going to eat at Pieces 3 or 4 times a week, because they can't get enough of this skinny pizza as they call it..they're used to Chicago style fat pizza. He tells me...Pieces is a 5 Star joint!

Great place to grab a piece of pizza and very friendly lady that helped me out she was so sweet. I felt like I was eating at someone's home with the great service i got. I recommend this place the pizza was outstanding.
