We stopped by Louie's and had the meatball grinder. This is no ordinary meatball sub. The meatballs are sliced thin, just enough sauce, and the sub roll was crispy, crunchy and flaky. Hands down the BEST meatball sub I've ever had, and that's saying a lot! When you stop in, say Hi to Colin. He's not just an amazing person but a great ambassador for Louie's. The service was fast, made to order, came out hot & fresh. The vibe is family friendly, unpretentious and authentic. Did I mention they've been in business 52 years?! The quality of the food and the friendly, helpful vibe is clearly a testament of their longevity and commitment to excellence. Thank you to all the staff and especially Colin for making my first visit to Rehoboth Beach Special. read more

Slice & Drink Review Louie's is definitely a blast from the past. The dining room is straight out of 1970, and the walk up takeout right next door, at least a few decades older. The black and whites on the walls feel right out of a 50's newsreel. I love all that historic stuff from my own childhood, so it pleased me to go back in time for a little bit. I needed a slice and diet to carry me through the late afternoon and Louie's was right in front of me when we parked near the boards at the top of Rehoboth Ave. I knew nothing about pizza at this shore, but my Jersey roots made me comfortable it would be decent. The reheat on the mushroom slice was strong enough to crisp the firm scorched crust back to life, and allowed the mozzarella to sweat and melt, while the sliced dark schrooms remained embedded in the surrounding cheese. It was a smaller than expected triangle, but the taste and texture were fine. The crust was somewhat airy with a nice crunch; the red sauce wasn't memorable. Five bites and it was gone. Four Stars for the rekindled sandy memories. read more

This review is for take out slices only! It was the end of the night and we wanted a quick bite before heading back to the hotel. At almost 10pm they weren't cooking pizzas anymore so we got 3 pepperoni slices to go. They warmed it up in the oven and gave it to us in boxes. The pizza is a nice thin crust with tons of crispy pepperoni. I thought it was a pretty solid pizza slice and it hit the spot! Good to know that we can always grab a slice to go :) read more

Being right by the boardwalk, this is a very busy spot with limited inside seating. Service was so/so and unfortunately the pizza wasn't the best we've ever had. It may because we ordered well done as we do anywhere else. Crust was a little dry. Overall it's a decent place to get a quick bite to eat. read more

The pizza was bad. The pepperoni was mid, and the sauce and cheese weren't good. I wouldn't recommend stopping by, and the service wasn't good either. Save your money and choose another establishment near by read more

Trust me it's worth the long wait! Had gyro and fries. Took a while but totally worth it! Pizza looked and smelled amazing..and I'm from NY so I know a good slice! They have wide variety of subs and sandwiches too. Take out only. Boardwalk area staple. Good reason they've been around a long time! read more

WE always make it a point too stop and eat at Louie's when we are at Rehoboth beach. The best subs and pizza!!!

I was hoping this place would be better but it was average at best. All the locals said Louie's was the best pizza in Rehobeth but I was not impressed. Dough was thin and had an odd taste. Cannot explain it, just odd. The toppings were fine, just sparse and the cheese/sauce stopped we'll be for the end of the crust, which was again, very odd. It is "wannabe" New York style pizza in Delaware. read more

This was the worst pizza I've ever had. A frozen pizza from the grocery store would have been better. The center was soggy, the flavor was bland, and the crust was so hard it seemed like it had been frozen before baking. The price was also disappointing--it was far too expensive for the size. Will never be back. read more

Pretty good stuff! I'll definitely return to this spot. Prompt service. Decent service. Decent prices. Nothing to complain about. I was pretty satisfied. Thanks! read more

Best grinders/subs at the beach. Lots of topping options and a variety of peppers. My family loves the cheesesteaks, and Italian grinders. They take cash or charge - which is so convenient- and recently started a rewards program - for those who are into that. Have been enjoying Louie's at least once every summer for over 20 years. Hope your family likes it as much as mine. If you're in a rush- call ahead and go pick it up. They do have a dining room with a/c. read more

Absolutely fantastic experience at Louie's in Rehoboth! We were seated immediately with no wait time, which was a pleasant surprise. The food was absolutely delicious--especially the pizza! Colin went out of his way to chat with us and check in throughout our meal, making the experience even better. Great food, great service, and an all-around awesome dude. Highly recommend! read more

I ate at Louie's for the first time in all my years going to Rehobeth Beach. Man did I miss out. This blows the other local pizza places out of the ground. The crust is crunchie and the sauce and cheese is delicious. It was a great stop before the boardwalk. read more

It was time to update my review ... as this family favorite has only improved with time. In fact, I recently learned that they source many of their ingredients from local produce providers. This explains the quality you taste in every bite! And ... a new item on the menu ... Gluten Free pizza! And my wife says it's one of the best out there. Of course the staff is very friendly and quick to please. Looking forward to coming back! read more

Food is so good. Their grinders are my favorite. Ate here many years when I worked at Dolly's popcorn place .

Amazing. We order an off menu item, my favorite (and the people who live here) pizza - Cappicola and Onion! I've been getting this pizza for 30 years, they love to make it. It's the townies go to speciality pizza. Tust me, you'll be ordering more t read more

Best pizza at the beach I always get it for dessert the pepperoni is so thin it gets nice and crispy around the edges read more

This was such a good pizza place right by the beach, the food took awhile but was super good when we got it.

There's not enough room to explain how much I hate this place. I sat down and was met with a wet seat. It was extremely hot- no AC? The place had a terrible smell. The waiter was extremely rude and hairy. I ordered cheese fries that made me want jump off a bridge. Tasted so bad. read more

Might be some of the worst pizza I've had in a long time. The crust is not hand made. It's frozen shells that they top. It was dry and lacked flavor. 30 minute wait would equate to the amount of time to heat up a frozen pizza from your grocery store in the luxury of your home. read more

One of the best pizza joints by the beach. Out of: Grotto NICOLAS Louies is the best. Located near the boardwalk. You can call in or walk up to place an order. Pizza is actually good, with even cheese and sauce distribution. Because they are so under rated, hardly any waiting. However, its way more cooler to order it to go, and make the other beach goers on the beach hangry!! read more

Louie's Pizza is simply a Rehoboth Beach staple. Alongside Grotto's, it's a must when in the area. It's always hot and fresh. The pizza steak grinder is one of my favorites! It's a great little shop to stop in while on the boardwalk & have a slice! My family has been frequenting Louie's for 25+ years :) read more

12/12/2025 6:30pm Girlfriend and I were walking around and Crave something to eat so we decided to try Louie's since I saw a banner of 50th anniversary. We ordered take out but at time of picking up the food I decided to ask if we could dine in since it was very cold outside and young fella said it was ok. We were thinking on getting rest of food or drinks in dining area. As we sat down and got ready to eat another young guy came to us and told us that's not how it works, "you dine in you, order from the server and we bring the food, that we cannot do that" buy from carry out. I asked him if it was about spending money or what was the issue, that is the same owner and money goes to same business. Also told him that it was about eating comfortable at the end my girlfriend got up, as he mention "I guess is ok" but the bad experience infront of other customers had already happened. We decided to walk out. Pizza and fries were not that good anyway pricy too, fries (Thrasher's are the best) but were closed.... read more

Love the walk-up service for a quick slice. Good pizza, friendly staff, convenient. Yum !! read more

Louie's Pizza - Excellent place for walk-up slices ... great pizza, friendly service - Pizza Near Me - Rehoboth Beach, Delaware

Been coming here for a quick slice during the years but after renting a place for the week we ordered in twice. Chicken cheesesteak was delicious and everyone ordered gyros which was surprising because who gets gyros from a pizza joint? But everyone loved them that they ordered them the second time. The pizza was really good and cooked well considering we walked a few blocks to bring it home. Even on a busy Friday night our order was ready in like 45 minutes. I didn't have to deal directly with the staff so I can't comment to that but they did have a dedicated take out/away window which streamlined the process, as did the online ordering option. read more

Horrible service. Waited an hour for my order after confirming with the pickup window (was told "it was in the oven") only to learn it was sitting on the counter all along. Cold pizza and grinders for $70. NOT WORTH IT. I was told it was fine. There are better options with much better customer service. read more

been eating at Louies since I was a teen (now 61) by far the best pizza in Rehoboth Beach Delaware. I've never had a bad experience with weight staff or the owners in all that time. In fact, they recognize me and treat me like part of the family. I've eaten grotto's. It doesn't come close and the service is always horrible. I highly recommend everything on their menu. read more

This place was great. Stopped in for lunch, was a bit hesitant bc of reviews. Service (Sarah) was AWESOME, she managed the whole dining area flawlessly. Our two little kids loved her. Pizza was surprisingly delicious. Definitely will try the sandwiches next time, we had food envy watching all the other tables get served ridiculously good-looking sandos. Great price, great service, great food. Check it out! read more

1. found hair on soda cup. should have been a warning. 2. waited 30 min for food bc the waitress forgot to take our order. 3. as soon as we get our food and wife breaks off a piece of crust find more hair baked into the crust. we didn't eat, or rather couldn't eat. lost our appetite altogether. paid $9.50 for our sodas and just left. wasted so much of our time and patience. they were apologetic but doesn't mean anything after the aggravation in response to the owner/manager. we didn't want to wait another 20 minutes for our pizza. as you said, that pizza takes a while. your waitress took drink order promptly. she then took the orders of 3 tables that came in after us. and i had to ask her to take our order in which she apologized for. regardless of who my baseball team is or my taste in music, you served food with hair in our pizza. it may have been a blessing since people in the arcade overheard my wife and i talking about it and they said your place has that kind of a reputation. maybe you should get your beard in check too. yes i did copy and paste this review to google. surprisingly, my opinion didn't change much when i went from yelp to google so i figured i'd save some time since you wasted so much of it good luck to you read more

Excellent authentic mom and pop pizzeria. My cheesesteak was out of this world as was the service. I highly recommend them.

Pepperoni pizza by the slice is AMAZING! Buttery crust, perfectly crisp, hot and full pepperoni coverage. Super fast service, love the casual walk up area. Going back to today to try the grinders. Excellent experience overall. read more

BEST ITALIAN SUB EVER. I have been eating the samr sub for 4 days in a row because is just so good. They have great and fast service, good ingredients NO SOGGY BREAD. Well distributed ingredients and lot of onions In a good way. One small complaint is that i took an phone order and my order didn't go through the first time but they made my order when i got there in less than 1 minute read more

Pizza was horrible/ burnt. I ate my slice my husband threw his away. I waited 20 mins for two slices. Customer service was trash, instead of calling my number they just put my order in the back as I stood there and waited. No one asked what number I was or nothing. Then I went in to ask if I was missed cause I didn't hear #72 the boy working said oh I just said two cheese slices... mind you there's people in and out getting slices. Why give me a number if you can't say it. Had me standing there for 20 mins. Fail, wouldn't go back or recommend. read more

The pizza looks Yumm, however the crust isn't. The flavor is good, but the crust was soggy. My kids love pizza and they even left disappointed. We had a few slices as we were hungry. Will NOT come back. read more

This is the best NY pizza at the beach. It was just perfection. Took it to go and ate on a bench on the boardwalk.

Fantastic Best pizza in Rehoboth Way better than grotto Grinders are outstanding- sausage and meatball Bit of a wait Tolerable though read more

There was a hair baked into the crust of my pizza. Since the manager claims he reviewed the camera on the previous review... I know that's bs because if you really review your cameras, you will see that once the soda was delivered, I CLEARLY SAID.. THERE IS A hair stuck to the styrofoam cup... there should be a clip of me pulling the hair off and my husband asking if I should get another soda but since it was on the outside of the cup so it was forgivable and not a big deal. However after taking the order of every table that came after us first and receiving our food last... which manager claims takes longer to cook, ok fine but does not seem to understand the concept of FIRST come first serve which was the argument; we ordered a pizza with 6 toppings or whatever (the Louie special w/hair) I ripped the crust to cool it down and feed my baby and there was a hair baked right into it. Husband was super annoyed at this point and I was turned off by it and completely lost my appetite. Manager comped it as if I would actually consume it if they comp it..?? Comping seems standard since we were didn't even bite into it and the hair... can't get past the hair in the crust. Whatever, it's a small pizzeria in a beach town; if I wanted michelin rated this wouldn't be it but the manager missed the mark here. We came in for a local pizza joint instead of grotto's across the street. We came in for a good Delaware pie and was served an unsanitary pizza and a questionable response on my husband's hat and profile pic which is completely irrelevant to the food. Weird take. What a disservice to a long historical pizza joint. read more

Sad to say that I just feel like Louie's is not that good any more. This use to be one of my go-to's in Rehoboth, but sadly the pizza these days tastes more like grease than anything else. It's something that I've noticed the last few time's I've been; today just sealed the deal when my son only had a few bites, handed back his slice and said "No, thanks." read more

Been coming here for years and years. Great cheesesteak grinders. Good service. Dine in or carry out!
