If you're in the mood for Roman-style pizza (crispier, thicker crust, square) like no other, Alice Pizza should be on your list! It is one of my favorite restaurants of Philadelphia! --Highlights: Both counter service for pizza takeaway and personal pizzas for seated dining are versatile options for the type of dining you're craving. Also, the apple tart is delicious!--Alice Pizza is one of my favorite restaurants in the city. It offers both counter-service for pizza slices or takeout and limited seating at tables, the bar, and window counters. For takeout, the slices are measured by weight and can be heated or not. I would recommend asking for a long heating if you want your pizza to be very hot. Depending on the person, I've found the pizza is still room temperature. Additionally, for take out, at the time I have written this review, they currently do not accept tap to pay with card, so Apple Pay, Google Pay, etc. will not work and you need to have your physical card on hand.I've dined at Alice Pizza many times and I've found that my vegetarian favorites are the gnocchi, funghi e quattro formaggi (mushroom, four cheeses) pizza, and the apple tart. The gnocchi has a nice chew but isn't too tough. The mushroom pizza has a white sauce and it is so creamy and delicious. However, almost all of their pizzas are winners for me. They are Roman style pizzas, so they have a thicker crust compared to the NY style. Lastly, the apple tart is genuinely one of the best I've had in my life! Its thick crust and not too sweet apples with the ice cream on top are so tasty! Other desserts I enjoy are the tortina del nonna (lemony), banana bread pudding (has nuts), and strawberry ricotta cheesecake (very decadent). I would recommend making a reservation if going for restaurant week or dining at a peak hour. I recommend passing on the gelato for the other desserts, though it is personal preference. Unfortunately, I do not believe they have many/ any gluten free pizza options however they do try to be very mindful of other food allergies. I've always had impeccable service and delicious food at every visit to Alice Pizza. It is a little sunny inside during the day and dim during evenings. The tables are a little close to each other, as well. I highly recommend Alice Pizza for a grab and go bite or for your next date or special occasion! It is especially convenient for those seeing a show at the Kimmel Center or nearby.

I stopped in here with my wife and a couple friends as we were in the mood for some gelato. They had a variety of flavors available and we tried a couple each. I had the mint as well as the cannolo and both of them were absolutely delicious! We all really liked our gelato and we would definitely come back here again!

Staff is friendly. Inside is nice but definitely more functional than aesthetic per se. Having a dine in area and a cafe/take out area in the small space they have helps them make the most profit. I don't personally know how their entrees are but their pizza is delicious. Thin but flavorful and artisan. Rione was better to me but Rione is no longer around. Alice is great to still have around. Rize in Broomall and West Chester, while no competition for Alice, is also artisan and tends to be slightly greasier. Maybe I like Rize more because of its grease partially :/ but Alice holds its own.The TooGoodToGo is very hard to get but nice to see a pic of. You get random pieces cold and you are even asked if you have any food needs which they are not obligated to ask you. The drink options have a good variety. Pear was refreshing albeit typically small quantity and the chino was a typical bittersweet orange flavored soft drink. I liked it even though it is an Italian standard that I had never seen or noticed before.

This place is such a gem! The food is fresh and incredible, and the staff was super friendly. The restaurant is really cute and there were plenty of seats. I got the Suppli Al Telefono, Gnocci Fritti, and Fior Di Latte Mozzerella and would order all of it again! I also had the Aperol Spritz. Everything was incredible and I can't wait to go back! I also have to say this is one of the most reasonably priced, quality Italian restaurants I have been to in the city.I would highly recommend checking this one out!

Tasty pizza! We ordered carryout from Alice Pizza on a Saturday night. The pizza was ready about 10 minutes before we received the text message indicating that the pizza was ready for pick-up. We tried the potate picante pizza. The potatoes on the pizza were perfectly cooked with a rich flavor. The pizza had the perfect amount of heat and cheese as well. Overall, it was a delicious pizza experience that I would recommend to pizza fans.

I can't remember the last time I had Roman style pizza but after having pizza at Alice, I'm now wondering why I don't get it more often! Alice sells pizza by the weight so you control how big of a slice you want. They also have a small restaurant area if you are looking for a proper dine-in experience. The pizza crust at Alice is incredibly crispy, light and airy - everything I look for in a good pizza crust. The pizza here reminds me of an airy, thin focaccia with toppings. I tried the spicy tomato, sausage and mushrooms, zucchini and cheese, pepperoni, and pachino e bufala. My favorite was hands down the spicy tomato. It's so simple but so fresh and full of flavor. The zucchini pizza was my second favorite. I wouldn't get the pepperoni or sausage again because I found them to be too dry and overall uninteresting.Alice has definitely won me over at first impression and I would say it's one of the top 3 pizza restaurants in Philly for me personally. The cherry on top was ending the meal with authentic pistachio gelato from Gran Caffe L'aquila sold at the front of the shop. I can't wait to come back.

We got the Salsiccia e Funghi pizza (full tray) and the Bresaola salad. The pizza came out steaming hot from the oven and was immediately served to us. The crust was light and extremely crispy. I've never had Roman pizza before but if this is what pizza tastes like in Rome, then take me to Rome! The sausage on the pizza was a bit on the saltier side for me but it might be perfect for some people. The Bresaola salad has one of the best dressings I have tasted! It is a lemon vinaigrette and if you take a complete bite with the arugula, the thinly sliced beef tenderloin, the shaved parmesan cheese, and the cherry tomatoes, the flavors are balanced perfectly (sweet, salty, tangy, savory, and bitter).We got the full tray and it ended up being 24 squares of pizza that filled up 2 large boxes. Wow!!! It is definitely a bit on the pricier side since 1 square is not equivalent to a traditional slice of American pizza but if you want to take a trip to flavor town, then I suggest you giving their pizzas a try! Instead of ordering half tray or full tray, you also have the option to order individual slices by weight. Ordering by weight isn't freshly baked but they can warm it up for you. There is counter seating that is open seating where you are free to seat yourself or you can grab a seat with the wait staff for full service. I went in at around 1:30 on a Monday afternoon and while there weren't anybody sitting in the counter seating, the main dining room was bustling with people. There were also constantly people coming in to order to-go from the counter. They are definitely a popular pick for a delicious lunch.I read on their website that Alice Pizza was first created in Rome about 30 years ago. They have over 100 locations in Italy and this is their first and only location in the US. Being the first pizza chain in Italy, I'm glad that they have expanded to Philly and brought over their delicious and authentic Roman pizzas!

If you're into thicker pizza, this is a good place for you. I've ordered the eggplant slice and was pleasantly surprised. The sauce was flavorful and satisfying.

Grabbed a quick bite before seeing a show next door.Staff was super helpful and quick. You can order and sit down at the counter or be seated with a waiter .The pizza is delicious, the panini was delicious. The hot chocolate was perfect for this cold day.Lovely little pizza spot/cafe
