Gloria Pizza
About This Spot
Stepping into Gloria Pizza feels like uncovering a cherished neighborhood retreat where familiar warmth meets genuine local flavor. Nestled along Queens Boulevard in Forest Hills, this spot hums with a relaxed, unhurried energy — a space where the day's pace slows just enough to savor the simple pleasure of a well-made slice or a cozy table shared with friends and family.
The interior welcomes with a straightforward, inviting design that leaves all the focus where it belongs: on the food and the moments it inspires. The staff's easy friendliness mirrors the neighborhood’s spirit, making every visit feel like coming home. You notice the subtle buzz of voices, the occasional laughter, a shared appreciation for the kind of pizza that balances thin, crispy crust with a blend of cheese and sauce that speaks of care, not convenience.
Here, the menu is an honest invitation to savor classic Italian-American comfort with a fresh twist. Whether it’s a Neapolitan-inspired slice or a more adventurous buffalo chicken offering, each bite reflects a delicate harmony of textures and flavors — tender chicken, just the right touch of spice, dough that’s not overly dense yet holds together with satisfying resilience. It’s in these details that Gloria Pizza earns its loyal following; those who appreciate a slice that respects tradition but welcomes a touch of creativity.
Beyond pizza, the presence of hearty rice balls, garlicky knots, and bright, garden-fresh salads adds layers to the experience, encouraging a leisurely exploration of tastes rather than a quick stop. The option to enjoy these hearty Italian staples through delivery or catering further ties Gloria Pizza into the fabric of community gatherings, celebrations, and everyday sharing.
There’s a grounded generosity to this place—not just in portions but in the atmosphere it fosters. Whether you’re settled in for a quiet solo meal or surrounded by a lively group, Gloria Pizza humbly supports the kind of joyful discovery that comes from good food and genuine human moments.

customer here. The pizza at this place is the best. It’s thin, crispy, and the cheese blends perfectly with the sauce. Truly the best pizza!”

extradited from Flushing to Forest Hills, Gloria has found new life here on Queens Boulevard. their buffalo chicken pizza slice is one of the best I've tasted. the sauce is the right ratio of spicy:sweet, and the tender chunks of chicken are great. the crust of all the slices here is done right, and the cheese doesn't taste like plastic cheese food. the guys here are friendly and outgoing. the dining area is modern, spacious and clean. while I'm an old-school stalwart who still enjoys seeing the old neon orange/red booths, the pizza is top-notch and just the way outerboro pizza should be. prices are fair and the portions are great. I've yet to finish trying all the pizza options in Forest Hills, but Gloria's is so good

The pizzas are so good and yum! Try any chicken pizza it’s juicy tasty and yes crunchy! Lol I wish I got paid for writing this but I’m not.

It is very rare that I give a 5-star review; the business must be nothing short of exceptional, and I can say without a doubt that this business has earned a 5-star review in all areas. It has been some time since I’ve had phenomenal and extraordinary pizza with an environment to match it. I see other reviews where people are complaining about the price however they do not understand that this business is an established marker for this community in Forest Hills and has been around a very long time therefore their prices are going to be higher also with the cost of inflation it makes sense their prices are not that high for quality outstanding pizza and a pizzeria that backs its food. If you're looking for a quick bite to eat near Austin Street and or 71st Ave, that's not going to break your bank, this is your go-to place, period, point blank 10,10, 10’s across the board.

The plain slice here is exemplary of the basics that make a good pizza. The cheese has a great texture, the sauce a good flavor, and the crust crispy yet chewy.
