No,

The Milky Way is the galaxy in which Earth's sun is to be found and it is only the second largest galaxy in the local group - the neighboring Andromeda galaxy is larger.

The largest galaxies that we know of are giant elliptical galaxies in the centers of clusters of galaxies. These galaxies are about 10 times more luminous than the Milky Way and Andromeda (which are spiral galaxies) and about 100 times more massive, with diameters of more than 6 million light years (compared to about 100 thousand light years for the Milky Way).

The largest objects in the universe that we can recognize are galactic super clusters, which are large associations of galaxies that can extend over distances of more than 100 million light-years.

Is the milky way galaxy the largest known thing in the universe?

No, there are thought to be other galaxies that are just as big, even bigger. The milky way isn't the only thing in the universe; even the universe itself is larger than the milky way. The Milky Way isn't even the biggest galaxy in our "neighborhood", galactically speaking. The Andromeda Galaxy appears to be about twice as big (though the jury's still out on which has more mass; the Milky Way may have a slight edge there).
