Huge fan and have had it several times now! Very much enjoyed the crust on these. Love that you can choose the size of your pizza slice. Also have had carry out with the option of getting the more traditional "full tray." I'm a plain cheese pizza kinda person and it was tasty. Sampled some of the vegetarian options that my family got and all were really good. The gelato will also have me coming back... chocolate hazelnut was perfection. Location is excellent near the theatre. Slightly crowded on a Saturday evening but managed to get a table without a wait. Ordered directly from the counter and just took a few minutes for them to heat up the slice so certainly works as a fast casual option. Excited that a new one is opening in the fashion district.

If you've ever been to Italy, then you would really appreciate a genuine Italian bistro! If you haven't, don't fret because Alice Pizza will remind you of the cluttered streets in Venice it has everything, amazing pizza which can be customized to your liking, pastas, coffee, Italian pastries and espresso. We went on a Sunday afternoon and chose to sit and dine ( you can just get pizza slices to go). We were promptly served with cold waters and menus, they do have a revolving specials menu. We tried the cacio- e-pepe gnocchi, it was fresh and quiet delectable! They also have a full bar! Can't wait to go back and get an Aperol Spritz! More...

This place truly hit the spot! I was craving comforting decadent Italian food and Alice delivered. We ordered the fried gnocchi in white sauce special (holy mouthwatering heaven). My friend ordered the cacio e Pepe pizza -- I usually avoid white pizzas bc they're dry/bland, but this was so saucy and cheesy and yum!! On a weeknight there was a friendly neighborhood buzz. For the price, this place is a hit!! More...

I got yelled at by my Italian co-worker who told me it's pronounced AH Leech CHE not Alice. Ohhhhhh.Pre-theater dining experience during the weekday. Got lucky and snagged a table and though it was one server taking care of a bunch of customers, he did a pretty good job. Warning - those personal pan pizzas at $14 or so are actually made for 2 people to share. I went for the cheesy mushroom option and it was delicious. And I'm a huuuuuuge fan of cheese - they were pretty generous with the cheese, so maybe next time I'd actually ask for a little less cheese. They come out in a big square sizzling hot pan. Â I could only finish half, and since I was going to the theater, I couldn't really bring in the leftovers into the Academy.Seats were a little cramped, people were loud, but everyone was in a good mood.

I was so pleasantly surprised when I first tried the pizza here. I feel like most specialty pizza places have that typical thinner, softer crust that sort of flaps when you pull it off the tray. Don't get me wrong, I've never met a pizza I didn't like, but I'm more a fan of the Pizza Hut pan pizza-style crust--thick and bready, buttery, crunchy, chewy, AMAZING. Alice's pizza is more like that, and I'm here for it. They also have gelato up front so you can get dinner and dessert all in one. DEF worth a visit if you're looking for a change up from your regular zza joint! More...

Pizza was amazing! There were three of us and we all ordered something different to share. I preferred the simple margherita. .it was my favorite... adding the spicy oil was a great idea! The server definitely could've been nicer. He wasn't not nice, he just seemed to be annoyed. But he treated everyone the same 'annoying' way so....there's that. (Suggestion: if you don't like your job...you're not a tree... leave!). The drinks are a bit expensive and the wine pour seemed small. Spot is cozy (in the seated area), love the window seats. Have to go back for the dessert (which we heard was amazing). More...

If you're ever craving super crispy pizza and want the liberty to decide exactly how many slices you want, Alice is the place to be. I first found about this place when I traveled to Rome. It's so cool to have one in Philly. Their specialty is Roman pizza, baked in squares and cut into pieces with scissors on demand. You tell them how big of a slice you're in the mood for and they cut it, stick it into the oven and serve it to you, They have a huge variety of pizzas, as well as a pretty stacked bakery/gelato bar. I've only ever been here for pizza, but it's always hit the spot. My favorite pizza is the one with sausage and mushrooms. The crust on every piece is so crunchy and amazing. More...

Very impressed with just my one visit. Their coffee is very good, and you might not think of this as a place to go just for the coffee. It's perfect just to grab a pre-concert coffee, given proximity to the Academy of Music and Kimmel Center. Also note the desserts (gelato in particular) available, so it's not just for the pizza that you might consider stopping in. More...

If you are in the city and looking for something quick and good, Alice Pizza is the one! They have a fast counter-where you can get a slice of pizza as much as you want because it sold by oz and add on a fresh salad. Then there is another side of restaurant with full service, you can get other dishes such as pasta etc.. All  the ingredients are fresh and homemade,great atmosphere also! More...

Solid pizza options here and the crust is very delicious. Nice and crisp!  I just got back from Rome  so it was nice to "extend the flavor". We share a "Philly special" and the zucchini Burrata...they were both very good. We also split an arugula salad which was very good but the dressing was a little bit too sweet for our taste. We were too full for any gelato but I am sure it is just as good as Gran Cafe - at least it looks the same? More...

My little slice of Italy in CC. Reminds me of the pizza in Italy where you get fresh, interesting slices by the kilo. We started going to the pizza counter where my faves are the zucchini with ricotta and the mushroom in cream sauce. The pizza is airy and tender with a crips bottom, perfect. Eventually we wandered to the other side, the cafe where you can get amazing pasta and the best chicken piccata. Add a $25 carafe of wine and the tri calore salad(which I'll never not get) and you're in for a great meal. What we used to call our little secret place is now on the radar so I'd suggest a res on the weekend. It's small and gets busy More...

It was 7ish on a Saturday night and we had just left a Phillies game, and realized we had no dinner plans when we saw Alice down the street from our hotel, so we decided to give it a try. What luck on our part! The gnocchi was great! There are many great options for dinner, but I stuck with pizza, and it was the best pizza that I have ever had in Philly! The dessert case looked incredible, but by then I was full, so I will definitely be back. It looks like they have a great coffee selection as well. See you soon, Alice! More...

Alice Pizza was my favorite lunch spot while studying abroad in Rome, and the Philly location is one of my favorite spots now! My favorite is the traditional margherita, a bite transports me right back to Italy. I do wish they had the 'bianca' al taglio - a dellicious oiled bread that I'll need to order as a whole pie soon!

Excellent food and great service. Baked goods and Gelato were amazing. I visited from Houston Tx and wandered in for a quick lunch and sat at the bar. Bartender was quick to engage with me and take my orde. Great conversation and service. Highly recommended.So I stopped by tonight for desert to go. I ordered a croissant and 2 shortbread cookies and got home to find 1 cookie. For over $7.00 it would be nice if the server could count to two. More...

We had no idea this was a part of the gran cafe branch. Only when you step inside do you get the vibe, and see the giant coffee cup that we're all dying to drink out of. The seating is fun and casual, and they sport both a take out area to order pizza by the ounce or a dine in area with a more robust menu. We only tried the take out, but pizzas are delicious! Can't wait to try them all. More...

This place is amazing. I live in the Bay Area, which is one of the best places on Earth to love eating, so I rarely find myself wishing I "could find something like this back home. " But dammit, Alice, you've got me dreaming about Philly. Alice Pizza offers a slew of thin, toppings-forward pizzas that you purchase by the ounce (so if you're dazzled by the selection and can't choose, you can talk yourself into buying an inch of several!). I got an eggplant, a Philly special, and a spicy tomato. All were delicious, and I was both satisfied and pretty full for under $7. They offer a wide selection of gelato also. I got the tiramisu, which was okay. Truth told, the gelato tasted super boozy. Perhaps they should sell this with a warning. :)I was eyeing the cannoli here but didn't leave any space for it. Next time, Alice! More...

There are a variety of pizza selections. The pizza is flavorful and the thin crust is crispy. I would have given this place five stars but when I went, the worker forgot about our order and it turned out burnt. I wouldn't have minded if she had offered to reheat another slice but she tried to give us the slices that were obviously burnt. We asked her for new slices which were then rushed and not very warm.I want to come back to try the Gelato and baked goods! More...

Â The cool thing here is that the price is by the weight of the pizza so you can mix and match. Â The waiter forgot about our pizza which came out burnt.

3.5 stars for the pizza, 5 stars for the pastries and gelato.The pizza is flatbread style, sold by weight. The crust is nice and crispy, but I didn't find the toppings to really make the pizza anything too special. Tried the mushroom + sausage, the potato pizza, as well as the diavola.The dessert and gelato section, however, is glorious. They get their gelato fresh every day from gran caffe l'aquila, and the flavors and texture are on point. Pastry section also has the papal smore, which immediately catches your eye and the taste backs up the visual appeal (no surprise, tastes like an elevated smore). More...

Gourmet pizza and Italian dishes close to Kimmel Center/ Merriam Theater. Â Ended up here for a quick bite before a show and was, surprisingly, able to get seated immediately. Ordered the Rossa pizza, which was basically a thin square (12"x12") pizza topped with bruschetta with a slight kick of spice. Two of us ordered this and we both enjoyed it. The other in our party ordered the chicken Parmesan and was pleased. I added the side of broccoli with pine nuts with lemon butter. The broccoli was a little over cooked but the flavor was good. I would recommend if looking for something quick and easy that's close to the Broad St venues. More...

This is such a cute spot! We ordered the margherita and ortolano pizza along with the ravioli. There's a sign that says the pizza takes a while and it really does lol, we waited probably 25 mins for it to come out. I thought the margherita was alright, nothing special, but the ortolano was amazing!! The ravioli was also delicious. You can tell everything is cooked fresh, and it tastes very authentic too! We also tried some of the gelato flavors and they were mediocre, I would rather walk a few blocks and go to capogiro instead lol. More...

Was very excited about this corner cafe/restaurant with nice accents from Gran Cafe L'Aquila. They do sell their coffee and ice cream which is a nice touch and their selection of pizza and desserts will make you salivate. We came for a quick coffee and bite where I ordered an espresso and wifey ordered a latte. Bar tender/barista was very nice in snack and coffee recommendations as we split a margherita pizza. Everything was very fresh and tasted robust. We gladly sipped on our respective roasts while indulging in a wholesome pie. The bar seating is about 10-12 with a TV and about 30-40 for sit down eating. They have a quick process/counter of getting pizza and coffee to go. Will definitely be back for more. More...

I've had sit down meals at Alice before but it never stood out until today. I guess ordering off a menu just doesn't cut it here, picking out slices from the counter display is the way to go! My favorite was the salami, cheese, and spicy oil slice. Followed by the "Philly Special" which was pesto, sun dried tomato, ricotta, and arugula. The bruschetta pizza was my least favorite and I actually ended up not eating it at all since my eyes were bigger than my stomach. It got too crispy for my liking when heated up and I didn't like the taste of the tomato mixture. Overall, it really hit the spot and I would be inclined to return for a quick meal when in the area.
