Are you tired of the bland, restaurant chain pizza? Then take a drive down Main Street in Norman, Okla. and you will find a small, family owned pizzeria that offers the best pizza you will ever have.
Pisa By The Slice is a family owned business in Norman. The restaurant was established three years ago at its original location on 12th and Robinson, however, three months ago the family moved its business to the present location on Main Street next to Norman High School.
Pisa By The Slice is owned and operated by the Yango family. The family was trained by an Italian man. The man showed the family how to make the dough and prepare the pizzas in a traditional Italian manner. Everyone plays a role in the operation of the restaurant but, two of the most important employees are Regie and Ralph Yango. The two brothers work in the pizzeria almost everyday of the week. You can see the pride they take in their work and their ability to offer a product that is far superior to any product offered by any pizza chain.
Pisa By The Slice uses only the finest ingredients for their pizzas and calzones. Their dough is made fresh daily, along with the special sauce. The pizza sauce is a special recipe that only a few people know and it makes all the difference. The pizzeria offers a variety of toppings for your pizza or calzone including, but not limited to pepperoni, sausage, beef, chicken, peppers, olives, mushrooms, and much more. For the finishing touch, Pisa By The Slice cooks their pizzas in a brick oven. The pizzas bake to a golden brown and come out with crisp crust that you just can't find at any pizza chain.
The menu is what makes Pizza By The Slice so phenomenal. The restaurant not only offers the classic pizzas like supreme, meat lover's, and pepperoni, but also specialty gourmet pizzas. The gourmet pizzas range from a Mediterranean pizza to a chicken calabrese pizza. Ralph and Regie are always thinking creatively and trying to create new specialty pizzas for the restaraunt. In fact, Regie has just created a new pizza that could possibly hit the menu soon. The pizza was a chicken teriyaki pizza. The pizza consist of a special teriyaki sauce, chicken, and cheese. It may sound simple enough but, the way the flavors came together is amazing.
The beauty of Pisa By The Slice is that they are not limited to pizza on their menu. The restraunt offers a variety of fantastic dining options. In addition to pizzas, the Pisa By The Slice menu consists of calzones, Stromboli, gyros, pasta, sub sandwiches, and various appetizers. The customer always has options and can never get burned out because of the ability to try something different every visit.
The pizzeria's business has really came to life since the change in location three months ago. The location next to the high school on Main Street provides great exposure and opportunity. The restaurant receives consistent business from the high school students during their lunch break and also receives a good amount of business from the local business owners on Main Street. Some of the family have dreams of expanding the business and possibly branching out to other surrounding communities. There is no questioning the product, it will be just a matter for opportunity for their expansion to be a success.
