Yes it’s always in the “top 10 best pizza in NYC” lists — and it’s great. But it’s not worth a trip from more than a borough away. We had the margarita (which has great mozzarella and a very bright vibrant red sauce) and a very good sausage pie (the fennel sausage is great!).

Nice old style pizzeria. Rustic interior. Delicious pie. Crispy crust. Super hot on the plate. Deserves to be on the New York times best list

Was told by so many people that this was the spot to go visit. I finally went ahead and listened and pay them a visit, I went with the family and ordered 2 large pies one just cheese that was for my kids and one cheese and sausage that was my wife and I. I must say we got our first pizza which was the cheese pizza large (the kids pizza ) and I was so disappointed in how burned the underneath was I mean my kids started eating and immediately started making weird faces there mom and I asked what’s wrong they replied this thing is super burned at first we were like no way it’s fine just eat it but then we decided to try it and were absolutely stunned on how charred it was underneath I mean I had coal fire pizza before but this was definitely left unattended for a while then served it was super burned. We were very angry that the kids had to go through that but we’re also not the type of people to complain at the moment just to avoid any animosity nor any smart remarks on behalf of the staff. We then received our second pie and that was much better I even had to stop eating my portion which was half the pie that had cheese to offer it to my kids cause they were very hungry there mom had her side which was the sausage side and finished hers. All I’m saying is that if you’re going to visit this location tell then from the very beginning not to burn the pizza or leave it too long cause you will not enjoy it. This fits as a learning lesson through our process it sucks cause we were really looking forward to this but hey it’s ok maybe next time. Take care folks and enjoy just be sure to mention not to burn the pie and you should be good.

Wish I can rate this pizza. I did not get to try it because it’s cash only. I understand businesses like this don’t like to report all earnings to the IRS. But it’s 2026. We live in a time where almost no one carries cash. I was offered to use the ATM there but I shouldn’t have to be forced to pay an ATM fee and a foreign fee from my bank. I think it’s time for all businesses to not discriminate against people who don’t like to carry cash and get a machine to accept card payments

Pizza Alert!

This place is absolute fire!!!

Let me tell you, the crust is perfection , the sauce is out of this world , the cheese is so melty and delicious, and the sausage… omg . Just perfection in every bite.

The calzone? Hands down, the BEST I’ve ever had in my life .

I honestly can’t believe I waited this long to discover this gem. From the moment you walk in, you feel like family. It’s that warm, cozy, “Mom-and-Pop” vibe that makes you want to stay forever.

The pizza is so good, I couldn’t stop eating—even when I was full! And if you know me, you know I eat pizza ALL the time. This spot has officially topped every other place I’ve ever been.

The staff is amazing, too. Even when they’re busy, they greet you with a smile and the best attitude.

Seriously, don’t wait—get here NOW. Like, right now! You won’t regret it!

I’ve had their famous sausage pie before and it was great. However, it totally failed to live up to the hype today. Ordered a sausage slice and it literally looked like sausage there’s thrown on the slice. No care in presentation whatsoever.

Louie & Ernie’s in the Bronx is a true hidden gem, nestled in a neighborhood where change creeps in slower than a New York cab stuck making it’s way through rush hour (and that’s a good thing!). For every bustling block in Manhattan to North Brooklyn, there are places like this, where the only constant is the familiar faces of its dedicated patrons.

For over 65 years, locals have made their way here in search of pies that remind them why they fell in love with pizza in the first place. This is pizza perfection. The margherita slices are simply unforgettable, and the sausage pies are unique to this spot.
Situated on a quiet corner of the Country Club neighborhood, it’s easily overlooked—no flashy signs, no bright lights, and no one begging for your attention.

Louie & Ernie’s doesn’t set out to impress, yet it manages to leave a lasting impression. Louie & Ernie’s embodies the spirit of old New York, where the pies have character, the sauce has perfect balance of flavor, and the cheese has just the right “sheen” and nuttiness.
This establishment isn’t about reinventing the wheel; it celebrates the beauty of tradition and the pleasure of savoring a slice that takes its time.

Hands down, one of the best pizzas I’ve ever had. With many options to choose from, a classic cheese or sausage hits just right.

I drove over 30 minutes to Louie & Ernie’s Pizza in the Bronx after reading tons of glowing reviews—and I truly wish I hadn’t wasted my time or money. I ordered an extra-large pizza with extra sauce, extra cheese, and half garlic, sausage, and pepperoni. The smell in my car on the ride home had me hopeful, but that’s where the excitement ended.

For a whopping $46.00, I expected something special. That’s well above the average price for even a loaded XL pizza in the city, and honestly? I can’t imagine how bland and dry it would’ve been without the “extra” sauce and cheese I paid for—probably like eating a matzo cracker with toppings. And even with the extras, it was still dry, the cheese was sparse, and parts of the crust were burnt to a crisp.

The sauce lacked any depth—no basil, no salt, just a plain, uninspired tomato base that brought nothing to the table. Totally underwhelming.

Oh, and be aware—cash only, which just adds another layer of hassle in this day and age.

Deluso decisamente. Save your money and your gas—this one’s all hype, no heart

Best pizza simple as that. Lived over 20 years in the BX and this is the spot. The sausage is chunky and perfectly cooked. Not dried out. The Sicilian is the best one I ever had. Not overly thick and super crunchy bottom. The regular slice doesn’t get any better. Great service and they sell the Louie and Ernie’s t shirts for 15 bux. A must try for all pizza lovers. Cash only.
