Looking up Whitney Avenue from Broadway 1929.
Anyone remember Dandy's Pizzaria?

When Dandy opened you could get a slice and a soda for twenty cents.

I remember Dandy! It was my family's go-to pizza place when I was growing up in Elmhurst in the 1980s.

Was born in "54" in Elmhurst and went to Newtown High and ate at Dandy's Pizzeria, with my cousin John "Red" Mulqueen.
We must have had pizza there about 1 million times.
Growing up there was the best.
A great era to be young.

I remember the day Dandy's opened! My friend and I saved our 15 cents so we could buy a slice!

This was the first place I ever tried pizza. I loved the large chunks of mozzerella he put on. Up to that point in my life(all of 10 years) I hated tomatoes and cheese. Who knew!

I remember watching ET at the movies (1982) and getting pizza at Dandy’s afterwards. I was short a few cents for a soda but John served me anyway. He was a good guy. Later on in the 80’s my dad worked as a pizza man there for many years. I would help out from time to time as well.
