Stopped by for a slice of pepperoni for 4.75. It's small in there so wouldn't eat there but solid slice and exactly what you want when you crave pizza. Friendly service. I'd like to try one of their more unique flavors in the future read more

Sunnyside Pizza - Pepperoni - Pizza Near Me - Sunnyside, New York

First, this is a very small pizza shop, so expect to take your slice to go!! Second, I read a few older reviews before coming here today that mentioned a $10 credit card minimum...well I showed up anyways not having any cash on me. Well, I'm happy to report that this is NO LONGER a requirement!! They must've been pretty busy today (Friday lunch hours) because they only had a few different options left for pizza by the slice. I ended up getting one Spinach Mushroom slice and one Plain slice. The Spinach Mushroom should be renamed to "Mushroom Lovers" because it was FILLED with mushrooms!!! Waaaay too many for my taste. I mean, I like mushrooms but they have an overpowering taste.. I ended up throwing this piece away because I couldn't deal with it. Their Plain slice, however, was really good! It came fresh out of the oven (the best time to get a slice!) and the cheese was so stringy and gooey. Loved it! Also, the staff were friendly and chatty, which is something I always appreciate. They seem to have regulars that they know by name, which I always take as a good sign! I noticed from past photos shared here on Yelp that they've historically had more vegetarian slice options, so I'll come back again to try them out. This place is a convenient 10-minute walk from my job, making it an easy place to grab lunch when I didn't have time to prepare one ahead of time. read more

A family member brought me here, he said pizza was very good here. It was not at all. The flavors and the crust was not as good, I had had so many great pizzas all over NY, this was not it. I had a regular slice and a ranch chicken, none of them were good in taste. read more

You will crave this pizza every single time you want pizza after you've experienced it. I tried this place out yesterday thanks to my partner who recommended it and as usual he never disappoints. The hype is real for this place. The place itself is small, service is quick and friendly. My service pup was welcomed kindly which I always love. The pizza is already out for you to pick from. The pretzel crust is the best idea ever. The second I bit into my pizza I realized it was the perfect amount of everything. The toppings had a generous amount, even though the pizza Is thin it was filling for me. I 100% recommend this place if you want pizza and you're around. read more

This place is really overrated. Pizza is average. Don't like the sesame seed crust, service is surly. Many other places in Sunnyside.

This is a small pick up pizzeria making tasty pizza. The crust is surrounded with seasme seeds which is different than other pizzerias. The pizza is cheesy, a bit oily but very enjoyable. There is about three stocks if you want to sit down and the ambiance is the oven. Service is very friendly. They were laid back and nice. The place is easy to miss but that adds to its character. It's like a secret. Mera's Tip: get more than one slice read more

You're going to want to eat the crust here. Sesame crusted crisp yet chewy, on cheese slices delightfully thin yet sturdy enough for the thick cheese and balanced sauciness. $3.50 goodness.This tiny old school pizzeria has been serving consistently delicious slices. The fresh mozzarella slice looked incredible, as I bet most of the other slices are. If you snag one of the six possible slots to dine in here treat yourself and eat it fresh. read more

Pizza was delicious! Very small restaurant barely any room to turn around. But that's a given, it's NY . The pizza were good price, tasted great. They didn't have a lot of vegetarian options to choose from but I made best with what I had. read more

This place was crowded when I came to order. It's a quick place to order and take out food. This isn't a place where someone takes their time to eat, since theres only a small table for one to eat at. Each slice is a different price, and they have variety, such as Sicilian.l ,cheese, meat, and other toppings. I didn't know what to get, so cheese slice it was. They are known for their seasme crusts. I don't know any other pizza spots with crusts that have seeds all over it. Makes it pretty unique from other slices that I've had in New York. They take card or cash. read more

stick with the plain, which is excellent. I ordered a veggie pie and the box felt strangely heavy. the pizza was laden down with an enormous amount of spinach and broccoli, crust was soggy and wet because of all the toppings, the slices had to be eaten with a knife and fork. read more

Your basic pizzeria the service was reasonably good the slice was really good not much seating to be had but. All in all very good.

Ordered the vegetable pizza for a brunch party in my office. It was very generous and absolutely delicious, it was a hit with everyone.

This pizza is one of a kind. The sesame crust of this pizza is so delicious. I usually I don't eat the crust of any pizza but this one I chow down! They sell individual slices but I mostly get a pie to go. A tiny store with maybe 3 seats so there's really no seating. It is pretty much order and go! Well worth the trek to Sunnyside for this. You won't regret it! read more

Reasonably priced pizza that is very tasty. I personally enjoy the Nonna Sicilian. They serve regular pizza and square Neapolitan. Service is fast and professional. One of my favorite Queens pizzeria. read more

This place is an icon of Sunnyside if you ask me. For one of the best old school New York pizza slices this is where you go. One of the best locations for a pizza place across from 7 train 40th and Lowery stop. Staff is all really friendly and fast. Pizza is consistently incredible quality. Their ingredients are not bottom of the barrel so not a slice that drools oils all over you from cheap cheese. They are perfectly crispy and cheese to sauce ratio is perfect. I frequent here at least once a week. If I had the metabolism to eat more I would! read more

Love this place! The sesame seeds in the crust are amazing!! Service is excellent. Pizza is the best in sunnyside

Right off the 7train. Fast everything is already made. Slices are are delicious my favorites buffalo chicken, eggplant and the regular. It's a small space but you can eat there if you want. Tv in a corner service is great and engaging good place. read more

One of the best pizzas I've tried in queens! They have a pretty big selection and you can do half and half for most pies. A pie is ~$31 normally. I usually opt for the margherita by default and I've tried the chicken parm and bbq chicken slices. I prefer the chicken parm over the bbq, but they're both very hefty in volume. But the main reason why I enjoy the pizza here is cause of the crust. Usually not much of a crust type of gal, but their crust has sesame seed and I feel like this is a game changer. read more

I cane here earlier today since I was in the neighborhood and craving pizza. It's a small place with a few seats to sit at, and they have a lot of different slices to choose from. I got a regular and margarita and both weee good, though the regular slice was a bit tastier in my opinion. The staff were nice and I would definitely come back here again! read more

Sunnyside Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Sunnyside, New York

This is the best pizza ever!!! The crust is so tasty and I never eat crusts, it's so soft but not mushy or too soft and the more u chew the better the flavor gets ooooo it's gooodddd and the employees are so nice and friendly and service was super quick! 1000/10 Would 5000% recommend read more

One of the better NY slices you're going to get in Sunnyside., especially considering the lack of options in the area. The sesame seeds they put on the crust definitely works and it's perfectly crispy and flavorful. Really no complaints on the food for a slice that costs less than $3. However, beware that they close whenever they want. I've gone a few times 30-45 minutes before closing only to see no prepped pizzas on the shelves and the stools turned upside down on the counter. So if you're planning to go I'd recommend showing up at least an hour before the official closing just in case it's a rainy or slow day and they decided to shut the doors early. read more

Sunnyside Pizza - Cheese Slice - Pizza Near Me - Sunnyside, New York

One of the best and original pizzas in NYC. The special sesame seeds on the crust make their pizza a star

I've been living in Sunnyside and coming here for years. Might be biased but I think it's the best pizza in NYC! My relatives from out of town also agreed when I took em here. Staff is incredibly cool and friendly! read more

Been coming here for 5 years. The chicken parm pizza is awesome! I order it every time. Tonight it went from the usual great pie to a perfect pie. The proportion of mozzarella, sauce, ricotta and breaded chicken was just right. 2 slices fills me up and leftovers for the next day or two. The crust is not only tasty but the texture being crunchy (almost buttery, perfectly flaky) on the outside and soft and airy on the inside is hard to match. The icing on top is the toasted sesame seeds on the crust. Tonight we had a perfect pie. Thanks Sunnyside! I usually heat up the slices when I get home at 375 degrees for 6-8 min since I drive 15-20 min to get the pie. Haha read more

Sunnyside Pizza - Chicken Parm Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Sunnyside, New York

The sauce on this pizza is awesome. The little seasame seeds on the crust is a nice touch as well. The place is tiny definitely not a place to stay and eat. However you are there for the pizza and the plain slice here is one of my favorites. Ignore Dave Portnoy he only likes burnt pizza this place is great, read more

I stopped by this place to try out their pizza. In Sunnyside, this seems to one of maybe two pizza joints (by the slice) on/to the north of Queens Blvd that's not a combo type establishment. There's a couple to the south (Lenny's, Giovanni's), but they're a bit far for me to pickup to the point where my pizza would probably get cold heading back to my apartment (unless I eat it there, which kinda defies my main goal of pizza joints....) As I digress, I tried this place out. It's super tiny so expect to just pick up and go. Surprisingly, the cheese slices were not on the main counter (interesting), but I found it ready on the side to the point where the man behind the counter just served me a couple slices hot without having to reheat. After going back to my apartment (about a 5 minute walk or so), the pizza was still hot, which was a good sign. The base of the pizza tasted up to par for me and the sauce had an interesting kick to me. The only thing I did not like was the sesame seed crust. This sounds unpopular, but I wasn't a fan. I like sesame bagels and sesame seeds on its own, but not on pizza crusts. It was just too strange for me, especially writing this a few days after eating the pizza. It sucks because everything else was pretty good and the price is standard for NYC pizza. I just couldn't get myself to enjoy the sesame crusts, so I have to give this place a 3 star review. I know others will like it - if they like sesame crusts - but I'm just not a big fan of it. read more

Sunnyside Pizza - pizza was good (minus the sesame crusts for me) - Pizza Near Me - Sunnyside, New York

When I first moved to Sunnyside a local, who I happened to bump into at the liquor store, pointed across the street at this place and said with the utmost confidence that Sunnyside Pizza was the best slice in the neighborhood. With that kind of glowing recommendation I had to try this joint. It's the best food decision I've made in a long time and I gladly embrace the extra pounds around my waist it has given me. If you want stellar pizza that's absolutely jam-packed with toppings then you need to go to Sunnyside. The people behind the counter are phenomenal, from Jose tossing the dough to Joss taking your order. Even grumpy Michael is a stand-up guy. I've come for a slice and stayed for hours talking and laughing and having an amazing time with these wonderful folks. I don't know if it's the cheapest and honestly I don't care about that sort of thing. Give me quality over cost any day of the week. Not to mention, it's a slice, the difference in price between joints can be counted in quarters, so I don't understand why people get tied in knots over pocket change. If you're in the neighborhood, do yourself the favor of trying their pizza. The Buffalo Chicken is my go-to though the Spinach on White pulls me in when I'm trying to eat "healthier". Yes, imagine air quotes around the word "healthier". This is pizza after all. It's a cramped dining area, but that just means you'll become fast friends with the other regulars enjoying these delicious slices. If that's not your bag, then take one to go or snag some delivery. However you want to acquire their pizza the end result is the same, a very happy belly. read more

Top 3 pizza spots in NYC. I'm from Sunnyside so it's very convenient for me. Lots of parking and near the 7 train. The folks working here are great. Super friendly and good service. The pizza is on point. The dough and sesame seed crust is where it's at. The sauce has a nice sweet and tanginess to it. Their sausage rolls are also great but will think twice about ordering a $14 dish next time. Definitely recommend. read more

I have been coming here since they opened and the pizza here is always very consistently delicious. If you are looking for a bland, lack luster tasting slice with minimal amount of sauce and cheese this is not the place for you. On the other hand for me there is no other pizzeria in the neighborhood that offers fresh, savory, crunchy pizza with a generous amount of real cheese. The ratio to sauce and cheese is on point. The sesame on the crust adds an additional texture which really makes their pizza stand out from all the other pizzerias in the neighborhood. If you want to add additional toppings beware they do not skimp at all. Their calzone's are amazing and ridiculously large plus they are made to order. The staff to me are are always very friendly. This is not a large place and it can get busy really fast. I like to order my pies ahead of time and pick it up myself. I really don't like to get delivery from any where because I have no patience. I order my food. They tell me how long it will take to get it ready and I go pick it up it's just that simple for me. read more

All of their pizza is made with sesame seeds. Unfortunately I did not know this since I've never encountered a pizzeria that only sells pizza with seeds and I ordered regular slices. The regular slices were away from view so I could not have seen they had sesame seeds on them. I opened the box to apply my seasonings and realized all of my slices (3 regular) (1 margarita) had sesame seeds on the crust and even on the cheese part. I mentioned I was allergic to sesame seeds and they proceeded to argue with me and make excuses that "sesame seeds part of their recipe". I asked for a refund. The cashier said yes then changed his mind after he realized I paid with a card. Now I'm left with 4 slices of pizza I can't eat and $20 down the drain. Thank you. read more

I have been going to Sunnyside Pizza for more than 10 years and I'm sorry to say I won't be going back there. The quality has declined a bit but the biggest problem is the staff. The owner isn't there very much anymore and his workers don't care about good service. In particular there is a young guy that works there who is rude and unsanitary. I've seen him without a mask multiple times, talking over the food, going on and on. I've seen him use the same hand for food and money. He literally put my pizza on the countertop where a pizza box was just sitting. When my bf raised this as an issue, he rolled his eyes. This is not the first time. The final straw was today when I realized I've been saying "we can't go back there," every time we've been there since the start of the pandemic. read more

Been here 3x now and I have to say the pizza is pretty tasty and good. The sesame pizza crust I realize some folks here think is blasphemy but I like it. The variety is great and I like that they put real blue chz on the buffalo slice. My favorite so far has been the meatball slice (one huge meatball sliced up, with the sauce. Really good if u happen to catch it when it just comes out. Seating is limited and on a 100deg day like today, take it to go as it's super hot inside. ( there's chairs across under the El where u can eat) Good place to grab a slice while your biking. read more

Sunnyside Pizza - My son and I had the meatball(rear), fresh mozzarella, and chicken parmigiana. - Pizza Near Me - Sunnyside, New York

I have tried almost all the pizzeria in sunnyside neighborhood. My first time trying the sunnyside pizza and I was glad making the trip here to order some pies. Their pizza isn't cheap but worth the price you're paying for. I ordered the spinach pizza which I believe it was $24 also order the buffalo chicken pizza with blue cheese crumble which was $30 something. They are not stingy with the toppings like other places. Their spinach pizza & buffalo chicken looks delicious, worth the price & worth the picture. I was going through their menu in the morning I wanted to try either bbq chicken or buffalo chicken so just went with buffalo chicken. Next time I will try their bbq chicken it looks amazing on Yelp pictures. The lady I spoked with on the phone was very nice which is a big plus. Overall sunnyside pizza will be on my number 1 list for pizzas. There are few seats with a stand. It's pretty a small store so it's mostly like a take out place. An update after I tried to the pizza. I had to lower 1 star it's because it was way too salty and heavy for me to even eat one slice of pizza. Trying to make customer happy but overwhelming on the pizza is JUST TOO MUCH. read more

When I first realized that the *best* slice of Pizza in NYC, and perhaps the world, was in Queens... after spending years trawling through Brooklyn and Manhattan looking for it... I was a little angry. I was hurt. I was self-harming. I was purging. I was considering committing myself actually. I often am. But then, over time, I learned to see the "Funnyside." What to get: Garlic Bread Pizza Slice What else: All their slices are good, but get the one I just said, trust me Why should we trust you: Umm... Say something that makes us trust you: OK. Come with me if you want to live. Oh! That's Arnie?: NEIN! So will you buy us a slice?: NEIN! How hot do you think you are, out of 10: NEIN! And, how many inches do you like your nails to be?: NEIN! Will you bite the hand that feeds you? Will you stay down on your knees?: NEIN! Originally when I thought they just sold Pizza, they were my 2nd fave spot in NYC, behind Luigi's on 5th in Brooklyn. But when I found out they also sell eggs, I had to move "Sunnyside Up" to number one! Get it. Eggs. Sunnyside up. Never mind. Seriously though, this is my *favourite* slice in New York City and one of my five *favourite pizzas* in the entire USA and I do not say that lightly because I f**king love pizza, and I f**king love NYC Pizza, and have probably tried well in excess of 200 of the top rated slices in the region. Specifically, as mentioned, you need to get yourself the Garlic Bread Slice. I've tried others from here and while they were nommably nomtastic, they did not hold a candle to the Garlic Bread Slice. I can honestly say I've never tasted anything quite like it. It's thicker than most NY slices, and much wetter and juicier. The tomato sauce is rich and heavy. The cheese is used sparingly and that just makes it all the more enjoyable. The crisp crust is awash with a plethora of sesame seeds which wouldn't seem like something I'd want... until I bite into it and realize that I'm orgasmic in my foodpants. As an aside: I used to side with Cher in terms of who the victim was. But now that he is gone (RIP), I can definitely see "Sonny's side." And of course, best of all, there is the garlic. What the French call a certain "Garlique." What the Spaniards call "Garlicia." What the Italians call "Garliccimo." What the Germans call "NEIN! NEIN! DAS IST GUT YAAAA!" Oh wait that's what my German friend said in my bedroom last night. And what the Romanians call "oh my f***ing sh** it's Garlic get the f*** out of here we're gonna die, vampire brethren." Yep. Masses. And masses. Of f***ing garlic, people. F*** yes. Now I'm not some guy that is obsessed with garlic (otherwise I wouldn't have so many boyfriends, I mean girlfriends, okay fine I mean both), but on this slice it works so well that it makes me dream of putting it in my mouth (yes still talking about the slice) for months and months on end. I suppose compared to Astoria and Long Island City, some might say this neighborhood is on the "Slummy-side" but forget that. If you've been to Detroit, West Baltimore or East Buffalo lately, Queens Blvd is paradise. And this pizza slice? The word paradise does not do it justice. How can a slice in Queens be the best slice in NYC? Don't ask me. It just is. I call them like I taste them. I find it hard to order just one slice when I'm here. No matter how full I am. In fact, if my German friends are with me, we order at least NEIN! YAAAAAA! There are actually multiple facets to me. But if you only know me from my Yelp reviews, then you only know my "Punnyside." So, in conclusion. Hit up Louie & Ernie's in the Bronx, try Bleecker St Pizza or Prince St Pizza in Manhattan, try Capri Pizza in Jersey, and go to Louie's on 5th ave in Broke-lyn. But if you want the most delicious slice of all... come to Queens and eat like a King. Garlic Bread Pizza. Sunnyside. I'm not fronting. I'm also not fronting you the money for it. But it's a very affordable place if that helps. Speaking of which, you look fantastic from the front. But turn around, so I can check out your Bummyside. Ooh. read more

As pizza joints continue to pop up all over the neighborhood, Sunnyside Pizza has probably garnered the most fanfare of them all. There are no gimmicks, no pretense, and almost no seats at this Queens Blvd pizzeria, just slices, pies, and a lot of love from the hood. They might just be the leading contender for the most consistent pie of all. Despite its old school look and feel, Sunnyside Pizza has really only been around for a few years. It was naturally a bit shaky at first (prices changed quickly, pies were on and then off the menu), but it seems they've found their footing. They now have pies on display for all to see daily and while the prices are fair, I still miss the days of an $11 pie. Such is inflation. One of their claims to fame, has been their infamous crust. All pies, round or square, feature a sesame seeded crust. This didn't win me over initially, but now I can dig it and I'm certainly not alone. I've always been partial to pepperoni, but they do make a mean BBQ chicken pizza and their Sicilian magherita is as tasty as it looks. Shout out to their grandma pies, that alone is worth a trip here. Overall, big ups on the presentation. Lastly, the guys who work here are as amiable and as local as they come. They've become popular with the regulars and delivery hasn't been an issue. There is a credit card minimum ($10 still?) and this place is definitely all take out otherwise. Seating is for solo passerbys, not for a raging group of 3 (or more). read more

WARNING - DO NOT ORDER MORE THAN ONE TOPPING!!!! They make great pizza with one topping max. If you want regular cheese pizza or pepperoni pizza, this place is the bomb. However, if you get more than one topping this place is ridiculous. They don't just sprinkle it, they dumb the whole thing in there. I was wondering why it was sooo expensive when I ordered a pizza with pepperoni, broccoli, mushrooms, and onions since I like things with a little of everything-- little being key. I added a picture to show what I mean (check out their gallery). You can't even see the pizza and the box almost broke with the weight! read more

Sunnyside Pizza - Do NOT order more than 1 topping!!! I ordered 4 and this is what happened! you can't even see the pizza and not tasty. They overdo it! - Pizza Near Me - Sunnyside, New York

I found this place when looking for food to bring to Alewife since you can bring outside food there. I love pizza of all sorts and this was perfect! I got two slices of the margherita pizza and it was delicious, with a nice crunch and blister to the crust. The counter guy told me he was charging me slightly less since one of the slices was small. My only gripe was that the counter guy wasn't wearing a mask, but he did put it on when I came in. "Forget it, Jake, it's Sunnyside." read more

Tiny, old school pizza emporium on Queens Blvd. that churns out excellent slices. I stopped by the other day for 2 slices, and was very happy I did. They have some of the best tasting pizza this side of Gaby's. They have sesame seed dough that has just a hint of spice. Plenty of cheese and sauce makes for a pizza lover's dream. Unfortunately, their prices reflect our inflationary times, but I didn't walk away unhappy. I'll return. read more
