The Best Slice 2011

1.) Mack’s Pizza

2011 Pizza Tour Winner

We apologize for this first-time cliche, but at the end of the day, Mack’s Pizza tore it up in 2011. A beautiful blend of sauce and cheese with a perfect sprinkling of exceptionally delicious spice made this slice just right. Seriously, just try it.

Overall Rating: 4.25 out of 5
Slice Price: $2.25
Chris: 4.5  Brian: 4.0  Frank: 4.0  Mike: 4.5

2: Franconi's - Avg: 3.75

5: Santino's - Avg: 3.5

Best Bang for Your Buck (PPR: Points Per Price Ratio)

1. Santino’s Pizza

2011 Best Bang For Your Buck (PPR) Winner

Almost every year, Santino’s competes not only for the Best Value slice, but also the Best Overall slice on the boards. 2011′s land slide victory is a walk in the park for the North / Central bridging pizza parlor, whose $1 slice and 3.5 taste rating make it an easy decision for any value-minded beach-goer.

PPR Rating: 3.5
Slice Price: $1.00
Overall Rating: 3.50 out of 5
Chris: 3.5  Brian: 3.5  Frank: 3  Mike: 4

4: Little Nicky's - PPR: 1.86

5: Sam's - PPR: 1.67

Least Impressive Slice

25. La Vecchia Sicilia

2011 Least Impressive Slice

It’s never fun to award the Least Impressive slice. Maybe it was the end of the night, maybe it was an unusual circumstance, but our slice from La Vecchia Sicilia left much to be desired. The pizza was dry, well done on the bottom and service was friendly but unfortunately slow. La Vecchia fell 16 places from 9th (in 2010) to 25th this year.

Overall Rating: 0.25 out of 5
Slice Price: $2.00
Chris: 0.5  Brian: 0  Frank: 0  Mike: 0.5

24: Fredo's - Avg: 0.38

23: Little Roma - Avg: 0.88

22: Angelo's - Avg: 1.25

21: Beach Burger - Avg: 1.25
