Sweet or Savory: Which Side Are You On?

There are two kinds of people in the world: those who hear the word “pie” and immediately think of dessert, and those who picture a warm, savory meal underneath a golden crust. At The Right Slice, we happily welcome both groups. In fact, one of the most entertaining parts of the day is hearing customers debate which kind deserves the title of the perfect pie.

Team Savory has a strong argument. A well-made pot pie is a complete meal in one dish. It has a flaky crust, hearty filling, vegetables, and the kind of warmth that makes dinner feel comforting .Chicken Pot Pie is a classic, while Shepherd’s Pie has its own loyal following. Savory pies are practical, satisfying, and easy to bring home after a busy day. They are perfect when you want something that tastes homemade but do not have the time or energy to cook. There is also something satisfying about cutting into the crust and seeing the steam rise from the filling. It is the kind of food that encourages people to sit down at the table rather than eating on the run. A savory pie also solves one of the most common evening problems: everyone is hungry, no one wants to cook, and nobody can agree on what to order. Bring home pot pies, add a salad, and suddenly dinner feels organized.

Team Sweet is equally passionate. Sweet pie turns an ordinary meal into an occasion. Coconut Cream, Lilikoi, Macadamia Nut, fruit pies, cheesecake-style flavors, and seasonal specialties each have their own devoted fans. Some customers always order the same favorite. They know exactly what they want before they even walk through the door. There is no need to look at the choices because the decision was made before they left home. Others treat the pie case like an adventure and choose something different every time. They ask questions, compare flavors, and sometimes need a few minutes because every option sounds good. Then there are the customers who say they are only buying one slice and somehow leave with several flavors because choosing was simply too difficult. We understand completely.

Of course, the smartest answer may be both. Start with a savory pie for dinner and finish with a sweet slice for dessert. Our Ohana and. Picnic-style options make that combination especially easy for couples, families, and visitors who want to sample more than one flavor. There is no rule saying you have to choose only one side.
