The pizza is the best in the city. The food is amazing. Good portion and taste

I have to start by saying I usually do not leave bad reviews for any business or anyone; I do not hold grudges. However, my experience at City Slicker today was not good. Their food is spot on A1 always, in my opinion. It is the customer service I have an issue with today. I ordered lunch online for pick up. I took my time getting there to be on the safe side. When I get there, the doors are locked, and I can see an entire staff of people in there. I look at the business hours, and sure enough, they are supposed to be open. I knock on the door, and no one acknowledges me. Their chef walks by as I knock, makes eye contact, and openly ignores me. At this point, I'm like, WTH?! I go to call the restaurant to cancel the order altogether, and that is when they come and open the door. I asked them what that was all about, and one staffer said, " I didn't see you" then everyone started to chime in that they did not see me, and then they began to say, " we were busy!" When they said they did not see me, I responded by saying I made eye contact with the chef. At this point, 2-3 of the staffers and I are going back and forth, which is crazy. Communication is a big deal. All-City Slicker's staff had to tell me is to wait a minute, and I would have waited, no problem; instead, you would rather stand there and argue with a paying customer that enjoys your food!

This place has good food but it's 11:00 on a Friday lunch time and they're not open. why?How come the other day when I called for a delivery the woman explained to me that they don't take Visa credit cards? The food IS good But it's not always available.

Friendly staff, pretty decent sweet potato fries. Giving them a 2 star becuse their pricing doesn't make sense. Small sweet potato is 4.50 with tax, if you want any type of sauce it does to 6.50. The sauce is half the price of the actual meal. Not understanding, not going back.

The pizza here is delicious - I love the vegetarian options! It’s one of my favorite places to get pizza in the Boston area!

Very delicious pizza and crispy

Love it here! Very clean, friendly staff and the food comes quick and clean.

This place used to be my favorite. I moved away from Somerville 6 months ago, but used to regularly order the sweet potato melt. It was always delicious, perfectly cooked, and on some type of focaccia or ciabatta bread. I was in the area today, and decided to swing by for that melt, and was very disappointed. Prices went up, and the quality went down. The prior tasty focaccia / ciabatta has been replaced with flavorless, dry french bread. The sweet potatoes were undercooked and crunchy. A little disappointed with the experience I had.

This place is 4 minutes from me, and it took them an hour and change to deliver a Cuban and buffalo chicken. Charged me $3 for delivery on DoorDashand it came cold - classic. Tasted average with terrible service, won't be trying again.

Awesome little pizza joint. They've got really good calzones. Some indoor seating too which is great.
