Was looking for excellent pizza within walking distance or a short train ride from Citi Field. Outstanding grandma slice. Salads are massive. Old school feel. Army vet who opened the restaurant 17 years ago. People come in with a smile on the face. Louie talks to everyone. A gem in Elmhurst. Legit ingredients- slices of mozzarella, basil, chunks of tomato. Delicious. Highly recommend.

Visiting NY and this was my 2nd trip alone this week to this pizza spot. Its an entire neighborhood vibe and the owner is a cool ass, down to eart guy... we thoroughly enjoyed the food and the entire visit there... Spinach pinwheel and Grandma pizza were my favorite, but my Wife loved the margarita pizza and pepperoni as well. You wont be dissapointed!

I had no idea Louie Suljovic’s Grandma pie had won awards — I ordered a slice completely by coincidence. It instantly became my new favorite, which surprised me because I usually prefer very thin pizza. This one completely changed my mind.<br><br>What stood out just as much as the food was the atmosphere. There’s something uniquely welcoming and reassuring about this Queens pizzeria. I felt comfortable the moment I walked in, and after later reading more about Louie and the place, it all made sense.<br><br>The vibe honestly feels like walking into a neighborhood spot where people genuinely look out for one another. Louie carries himself with the kind of presence that gives off law-and-order energy — someone who deeply cares about his country, his neighborhood, and the people around him. Not many places make you feel both well-fed and genuinely at ease at the same time.<br><br>Thank you to Louie and the whole team. I’ll definitely be back.

The food was phenomenal! The flavor is on point! Not too salty and not diluted with so many artificial flavors! The pizza is one of the best! Can compete with the more popular chains in the city! Hefty serving that will leave you extremely full! The owner was extremely kind, accommodating and extremely patient especially for new customers like us! The place feels like home to be honest! Definitely a gem!

Nice dark, garlicky sauce. Finally got to try after having on my list so long! 100% coming back, probably one of the best Sicilian pies in Queens

If you’re in Elmhurst, you have to stop here. This chicken slice was easily the best slice I ate all weekend in NYC, and that’s saying a lot because I ate pizza every day 😂🍕

Ordered the Grandmas Sicilian pizza which was thick, fluffy, and delicious flavor, was almost like focaccia bread consistency. The second was a sausage with onion pizza… this was great, thin and crispy. Would recommend to family and friends.

A Must-Stop Slice in Elmhurst!<br><br>We love finding local spots when we travel, and of course when you come to NYC you have to get a slice. I’m so glad we chose Louie’s Pizza in Elmhurst! Louie himself was behind the counter, and he could not have been more friendly. He chatted with us in between taking orders, and his whole staff was just as welcoming. The restaurant is small, clean, and has that cozy neighborhood feel we love.<br><br>And the food… AMAZING! We tried pepperoni, margherita, the grandma slice, and buffalo, plus garlic knots and agnolotti. Every single thing was delicious!<br><br>If you’re anywhere near Elmhurst, you should run (not walk!) to Louie’s to get your pizza. And Louie, if you see this — thank you for a wonderful dinner and such warm, friendly service. You made our NYC trip even better! 🍕❤️

Louie! I hope you see this brother. My goodness I have been dreaming of that grandma slice. The best pizza I've ever had. Everything was great here. We showed up about 45 minutes before closing. We had a late flight, and Louie greeted us, took our order and made us feel welcome. This was a great introduction to NY pizza for me. Louie, you made us feel like we were at home at your shop. Thank you for your wonderful service and welcoming us to enjoy your food. I will be flying back to enjoy your pizza again. Unless your willing to mail me a whole pan of grandma slices ha ha. Thank you again.<br><br>- Your customers from Texas.

last place we checked out before heading to the airport was this pizza place recommended by our airbnb host as some of the best pizza in the city and it definitely lived up to that title! we tried thecheese and buffalo slices which were both great, everything made fresh. the owner Louie is really friendly and makes every customer feel like family, its clear why this place is so popular.

THE best overall experience of any pizza place I've ever been in! The owner was so gracious and polite, he really put out a welcome vibe that made my daughter and I very excited to have chosen his pizzeria to have our dinner. My daughter chose classic pepperoni, while I chose the Grandma and we were both totally blown away!!! Absolutely the best pizza I've had, ever. I enjoyed it so much, I took four additional slices home. I was fortunate enough to spend a little bit of time speaking with the owner, Louie, and just left feeling like I had a great experience. I cannot recommend Louie's pizzeria enough!!! AAA+++

I’ve eaten at Louie’s more times than I can count, and it never disappoints. The food is reaallly good. Every bite just hits. Grandma slice 🤌🏻🤌🏻🤌🏻<br><br>The owner’s a total gem—funny, down to earth, and always makes you feel like you belong there. It’s one of those spots that just gets it. IYKYK 😎

Best, most consistent grandma slice in Queens.<br>Going to Louie's I can always expect a great slice and not only is it consistent but the flavor is unmatched for what I've found so far on Long Island. If I'm craving pizza I'm going to Louie's.<br><br>This is one of those places where it doesn't need toppings to make the slice good, it's already very flavorful, but the toppings bring it to the next level.<br><br>Their service is excellent and calling over the phone is quick, and efficient.<br><br>My only gripe would be that the checkout area could use a bit more table space to place your box to add seasoning, but other than that, 10/10.

Finally found a great pizza place with no pork! Had grandma slice and it was really good. I usually left the crust but this one is very crunchy I ended up eating the whole thing. One specialty slice was $4.50. Best pizza around the hood, definitely will come back.
