What people say, in short
Louie and Ernie's draws strong Bronx recommendations, with the sausage pie particularly praised by a diner and the Grandma pie favored by another. A longtime customer still enjoys it but is less enthusiastic than before. Another commenter relays uneven results from family members who still visit frequently, and notes that reaching it can require an extra bus trip. Its loyal following comes with reservations about consistency and convenience.
