Slice House

Pizza review on their newest location!

I’m sure majority of you guys have heard of the Slice House location in Thousand Oaks, however, were you aware of their newest location that opened up in Simi Valley? Yes, that’s right! Slice House located at 2916 Tapo Canyon Rd, CA 93063 had a kick off with a grand opening on April 6th at 11am. I’m here to tell you all about it.

First off you may have heard of all the hype surrounding this place and may be asking yourself what’s so great about it. Well, have you ever had massive pizza served by a whole or a slice bigger than your head with great amount of flavor? How about a large variety of off the menu items that aren’t pizza like meatballs, subs, salads, and pastas. This place has it all. Let me take you through the journey of Slice House with a few of their menu items I ordered and gave a try.

As mentioned above, Slice House has a great menu to explore that has a little bit of everything for everyone. On my particular visit to this location and my first time ever trying Slice House, I ordered four slices, the meatballs, and a beer. The slices happened to be Pepperoni, Hawaiian Hit Man, Sweet Gino, and Veggie. After tasting each of these slices, I fell in love with all of them. Not one disappointment or area of critique. The amount of flavor each slice had was amazing something for sure is in that sauce that brings it all to life. If I had to choose I would say Sweet Gino was the best one and will probably be a slice I order every time I return.

Onto the items that are not pizza, the meatballs. I had overheard that these meatballs are a must try when going to Slice House, so that’s exactly what I did. I had the order of three. In less than 3 minutes they were already being served to my table fresh, steaming, and a strong smell of aroma just waiting to be eaten. Once again, something is in that sauce bringing it all to life. These are the best meatballs I have ever had and strongly recommend them to everyone planning to visit this location.

Speaking of visiting, are these existing areas too far out from your hometown location? Well, not to worry! They are currently working on expanding their restaurant over to Burbank, Santa Clarita, Ventura, Oxnard, Pasadena, Glendale, and Woodland Hills.

Well everyone, there you have it. My own personal Slice House review with what I got off their menu. Let me know below which slice of pizza you would give a try. Link to their Instagram is listed below, check them out as they are always keeping up with their audience.

BLVD BURGER CO.

A menu review with employee-favorite recommended food!


Have you ever craved a nice burger in an ambient, relaxing setting? Well, have I got the place for you at BLVD BURGER. This is located at 2145 Ventura Blvd in Camarillo, right off the freeway. On the main strip of restaurants, lays this beautiful burger joint that I find myself going back to revisit time after time.

You may be wondering what really makes a great burger. Can it be the cheese, how the beef is cooked, the limitless toppings you can add within the burger? Well, I came across an article, chefs weigh in on what makes a perfect burger, and every individual described their perfect bite.

Now, a little bit about this burger place happens to be they have a sit down restaurant with a bar attached where you can try local brewed beer to pair with your food. Music from artist like Tame Impala, The Maria’s, Steve Lacy, etc. are all a part of the playlist. A big screen tv is present in the bar to watch your sport games. Lastly, there are a few old school arcade games to play such as Pac-Man.

Time for the juicy part, during my visit to this burger place, I wanted to review the menu, but with a twist. So, that’s exactly what I did, I went on to order what the employees favorite menu items are. The first person, AJ, which was the person who took my order, told me that his favorite two items off the menu are chicken club and pineapple burger.

After ordering my food, I grabbed a seat at the bar to order my beer. I asked Christian, our next server, which was his favorite beer off of the menu. He told me the one he really enjoys right now is Malibu Brewing Company’s Happy Days Honey Blonde Ale. The beer did not disappoint, but unfortunately, I did not get a picture of my beer for the purposes of this class.

My overall pick of what I enjoyed the most would be the chicken club. I found this one to be flavorful, the chicken was cooked just right, and the serving of fries was just enough to leave you satisfied. When I make the trip back to this location, I will definitely be ordering this chicken club again.

Well there you have it, BLVD BURGER will always be a must visit burger joint so go ahead and check it out for yourselves. Check out their Instagram account for photos of the food and events they got going on. Also, check out their menu to see what you might order on your visit.

What would you guys pick? The pineapple burger or the chicken club, or would it be something else from the posted menu down below?
