Great pizza. The kids noticed the difference between Louis’ and other pizzerias after the first bite. The staff were very friendly and service was fast.

Great place. Extremely good pizza. Service was awesome. One plate delivered to us was dirty but a few minutes later, the server took it away before we had to complain. Decor is straight outta the 70’s but that's the charm of this place. Very busy but the service was not slow. Most people order without a menu so clearly a lot of repeat customers. Don't have the breaded veal cutlet; it wasn't bad, but it wouldn't be the best thing on the menu.

One of the BEST pizza places in the city, I regret not coming here earlier. I'm not usually a fan of thick crust, but their crust is to die-for. The pizza is extra cheesy, they are generous with the toppings, and it's all around goodness. I think I would only order the pizza from here though - the pies are beautiful, but I found the coconut cream pie filling didn't have a soft custard texture that I'm used to. It was mediocre, and so were the milkshakes. But the pizza is to die-for. Also, I love the atmosphere - it's like you've stepped back in time to the 80's. In a good way though. If it's your birthday, they play a super old sounding birthday anthem over the speakers and the staff present you with a candle on top of a ball of dough. Super super cute & conveniently close by to the bowling alley so you can bowl off the calories after=)

Best pizza i have ever had. The place looks like a VERY old dinner that was never updated but dont let that stop you, the food is incredible. Service was great, food arrived quickly and very warm/fresh.
Family owned they make sure you are happy with everything. We loved it

Best pizza in town. A little on the greasy side but if you like that then place is for you. Omg worthy crust! Service is great and it seems like they really care. Wish they did delivery but oh well.

Great food terrible service (today). The pizza was beyond good seriously best in Ottawa. I've gone here as a date restaurant before and it's always been super good never had a single problem with service. Great breakfast, great everything pretty much. Today however, I don't know what went wrong but my friends and I had the worst server. She talked to us like we were home invaders and made us feel really unwelcome. Although we tried to be friendly back we were greeted with rude and sarcastic quips among other comments. Seriously this lady talked to us like we were garbage. I have never tipped 0 percent in my life but today I did and I've worked as a server before.

Absolutely love this place. They go out of their way to make new customers feel welcome. And that's how they earn so much repeat business. Oh and also because the pizza is a-ma-zing!!

This place has good pizza and great environment! I went today and ordered a large meat lover with some friends. We also got a large poutine. The pizza was very thick crust and filled with toppings. It was a very filling meal albeit on the salty side. The poutine had somewhat of a peculiar taste but was pleasant nonetheless. The restaurant itself was a little small, but I cannot complain. Our drinks were brought out after our poutine which is my only complaint since we were quite thirsty. Great service, good food.

Best Pizza in Ottawa. The pizza here is my favourite in Ottawa. The crust is what makes it, but they have pretty gosh darned good pepperoni too. If you're into the classic pizzeria type pizza, this is the best pizza ever. I LOVE the way the place looks, like it hasn't been renovated since 1973. It brings me a very pleasant sense of nostalgia. The service is super friendly. They even write nice things out in ketchup for you on the pizza plate when they serve it to you. Their pizza is amazing, their salad is pretty good, their pies are exquisite. Also, the hallway you walk through to get into and out of the restaurant includes arcade games like the Love Doctor. So, if you want a blast from the past and you love pizza, this is the place to go. I hope it doesn't change. Edit: I previously said something about the soup not being so great on account of it being out of a can, but have since been told that the soup is in fact homemade; you just have to order the soup of the day, otherwise you'll get canned soup. I can't wait to try the homemade soup at Louis'! I bet it's delicious.

Classic. I used to live just across the street, so Louis had a big part to play in my life at that time. Pizza is delicious and has it's own flare. It is distinct in it' flavour and appearance. Not many places can say that. The old school atmosphere with no non-sense family run service is just right in my book. I prefer service with personality than generic pitch people we see these days.
This place remains a classic in my world

Pizza Subs and Desserts Among the Best. This place is a true institution. I would say any day order the pizza you like and order the subs. Truly Ottawa's best. The Crust and Cheese along with all the best toppings make this the top choice for Za in town.

One of a Kind. Never had a pizza like this. The dough and the sauce were quite unique. Loved it!

An Old Favorite...Revisited. I have always been a Louis Pizza fan (for 30+ years) but haven't gotten to eat there in many many years.... Well, I was so delighted to taste that familiar, fantastically, cheesy, delicious Louis goodness! The pizza was absolutely scrumptious in every way, from the crunchy cheese, the soft, fresh crust, to the taste tantalizing sauce.... mmmmm.... every bite was to die for! It was definitely everything I remembered and more. Can't wait to go back for more!!!

Fantastic Pizza. It hardly seems necessary to post yet another "Best Pizza in Town" review, but I'm going to do it anyway. We have been eating at Louis' for many years and it is by far the best in Ottawa. The negative reviewers are clearly looking for a different style of pizza. If you are looking for the trendy, wood-fired, thin crust, goat-cheese, arugula covered style of pizza then go somewhere else. Louis' is serving a traditional, "Canadian" style pizza that most of us grew up with. Nothing against the newer offerings, but you simply cannot compare the two. Apples and Oranges.

Louis' Pizza has an egg-dough crust and sweeter style tomato sauce. For me these two items set Louis' apart from other pizzerias in Ottawa. For me Pizza in Ottawa comes down to three places: Louis', KS on the Keys and Colonnade. All three are pretty equal, but Louis' is the best.

BEST PIZZA IN OTTAWA. I'm not a huge fan of their other menu items and their prices are high considering the food being offered but I don't mind shelling out almost $30 for a large pizza when it's this good. Best crust and sauce. Lots of cheese. Amazing pizza.

Really appreciate the extra touch of the "welcome" written in tomato sauce on the pizza pan. That's great service right there!

One of the best pizza we ever had! They kept the look and feel of this authentic 60’s pizzeria filled with great stories about the relationship between the owners (the uncle who was the original owner and now his niece) and the community. And if your wondering about the food, the place was packed on a Tuesday night, and take-out orders kept going out. Definitely a site to see if you are visiting from out of town!

Outstanding pizza and people. The dough is second to none, despite what two reviews described as salty and undercooked? Must be the competition writing this garbage. Sauce, cheese is quality, dessert pies, breakfasts just WOW. Try the pizza kits as well to take home and cook in your own oven. They are AMAZING and budget friendly. We bought 3 of them, and they were a big hit over the weekend. My favorite pizza in Ottawa or anywhere for that matter.

The best pizza you’ll ever eat. It’s the crust - so buttery and delicious that I could just eat it plain! Lots of amazing topping options and lots of other great foods like their poutine, as well. Staff always go above and beyond! Truly the sweetest people ever. Jo even made a crust display for my son whose obsessed with “ABC” when we last were there!

Absolutely the best pizza joint in Ottawa. 1. Their pizzas are delicious, especially the smoked meat pizza (in the picture. They put the meat INSIDE the cheese which makes the pizza a whole lot tastier. 2. Their staff is the best. Very welcoming, always smiling, always caring. They’re always trying to talk and build rapport. Never are they in the “get served and leave” mood. 3. Their overall restaurant vibe is cute. A fun place to just sit and enjoy their wonderful pizza. 10/10 would recommend.

I walked all the way here from Byward Market just for the coconut cream pie...and it was totally worth the effort. The pie was delicious and paired very well with a hot coffee. Service was fast and friendly. I would highly recommend Louis Pizza. I am looking forward to returning to try their pizza (and another slice of pie 😇).
