 🍽️ 1 Restaurant to Try  

Slice of Homage Pizza

• Where: 163 W Santa Clara St, San Jose, CA 95113

• Description: Since finding his passion for pizza at a local SJ pizzeria over 20 years ago, chef and founder Steven B. hasn’t looked back. While pizzas here aren’t cheap (a slice costs around $10), there are hundreds of reviews raving about their unique flavors and deliciousness as “the epitome of pizza.” Pro tip: it’s only a 15-minute walk from MOMENT Paseo, so grab a slice before heading over!
