Classic New York Slices with a Sesame Crust
Grab thin New York slices with a sesame crunch at this unfussy Queens counter.
🍕 The Sesame Crunch
Sunnyside Pizza keeps the New York slice formula intact, then adds one twist at the edge. The crust carries a coat of sesame seeds, giving a thin, crispy base a nutty crunch under tangy tomato sauce and melted cheese. Whole pies wait in the counter case, from a tomato and basil round to a spinach pie, with a Sicilian square striped in fresh basil for anyone who wants more bread.
Beyond slices, the kitchen bakes oversized chicken parm rolls and ham and cheese rolls, each large enough to stretch into two meals. Split one across the table, or carry half home for tomorrow's lunch. Recent opinions split on flavor consistency, and the sesame slice remains the order to judge it by.
The counter at 40-01 Queens Boulevard opens daily at 10 AM and closes at 8 PM on weekdays, an hour earlier than weekends, when it stays open until 9 PM. Grab a slice on the way home, or settle in with a whole pie and a couple of rolls.
