    Moving away from Strongsville always resurfaces as one of the great regrets of my life every time we drive down to visit A Slice Above.  Angelo's in Lakewood has nothing on 'em.  Seriously.  A Slice Above is clearly the superior pizza choice.

    I especially adore their Twister pizza (soft pretzels with a cheddar cheesy sauce), although my best friend said it sort of tastes like mac 'n' cheese.  Another favorite of mine is the Rancher's Choice -- fresh spinach, garlic slices, broiled chicken, cheddar cheese, and topped with a "tangy ranch salad dressing" (but no mushrooms for me, please!) .  More recently, they came out with a pesto pizza that I've been dying to try.

    It's not all gourmet, either, for you plain Janes out there.  They have "normal" pizza, too -- The Pepperoni Feast, the Vegetable Patch Pizza, and Pizza Margherita are just a few options.  You can also build your own.

    They have 5 different crust choices -- New York Style, Chicago Style, "Slice Above" Style, Whole Wheat, and Low-Carb (with Chicago, Whole Wheat, and Low-Carb only available in medium sizes).  While you might be tempted to go with New York or Chicago Style crusts, I say stick with what's local and go for the "Slice Above" Style.  They have 5 different sauce choices -- Traditional, Marinara, Bianco, Spicy, or Sweet & Light.  The Bianco is my personal favorite.

    You can probably sense A Slice Above is no stranger to variety, but their creativity doesn't stop with their pizzas.  They also offer Slice Overs (their version of a calzone, totally customizable for $.50 a topping), wings, Slice Cream (what other pizza place offers homemade ice cream?), and Take N Bakes.  Take N Bakes are awesome for people like me who don't live close by.  Their gourmet pizzas are still made fresh to order, but they're given to you unbaked -- all you have to do is take it home and stick it in the oven!  They even provide a baking tray.  Fabulous!

    I feel mislead.  I just don't like it when a pizza place says it serves Chicago style pizza, and its just thick crust.  You should need to go to Chicago and order a pizza before you insult their city by calling this Chicago style.  The Italian sausage was cut into chunks, and looked like kielbasa, but tasted kinda like the box I took it home in.  Not that there was a ton of sauage or onion on it anyhow, but what I did get, didn't think it was that good.  

    I doubt that I'll go back anytime soon, but maybe the other crust aren't as bad, as I'd like to believe the other reviews.  

    I had plenty of leftovers of course, as no one wanted to eat it, and as I tried to eat a slice for breakfast, realized it actually could get worse, and it doesn't reheat good either.  

    Maybe if I sat at the bar next door for a couple hours and got drunk, this pizza would have seemed ok.

    Awful! I got a pizza and a salad and it was such a disappointment. Burnt pizza!

    BF finally introduced me to A Slice Above a few days ago.  I have 6 words: honeybee pizza on whole wheat crust.  And the bacon was whole strips, not tiny little crumbles.  The sweetness of the honey really complements the smoky saltiness of the bacon and I don't remember what kind of cheese it was, but it was GOOD.  

    Picked up a menu to take home for perusal and drooling later.

    Yes, yes!  I have been eating this pizza for years and feel bad I've waited so long to review it.  Highly recommend the South of the Border!  Tex-mex style, amazing crust, and reheats very well.  They have bizarre concoctions here, and each one I try leaves me happy I did.

    The prices are a little steep compared to the discount chains.  You get what you pay for though.

    Where's the Beef?, order this pizza it's the best.  It can get greasy so don't hold it on the ride home and don't put on your car seat!  We just tried the Tutti-Fruitti Pie-, we weren't fans of this one.  There standard single topping pizzas are great.  Would have giving 5 stars but to much grease.
