Jerusalem Ii Pizza

Love this place. Food is good. This is Israeli kind of pizza, so dough is not very thin as you may expect. Not too expensive, portions are decent. This place is kind of tight for a tall big person to sit without touching people sitting behind you. Also, their restroom is located in the basement where leads pretty steep stairway. This place is not accessible for a wheelchair.

There are a LOT of kosher pizza places in Midwood, and I've been to most of them. I'm not a huge fan of food from kosher pizza, but Jerusalem II Pizza is one of the better ones. It's not awful, and in fact, it's actually pretty good. Don't expect John's of Bleeker quality pizza, It's still kosher pizza, but the pizza here is definitely a notch above the rest in the neighborhood. I used to come here when I was a Murrow student back in the mid 80's. I liked the guys who worked here; they were friendly and helpful. The pizza was pretty good. Nothing has changed since 1985. Salad bar is huge. Hot foods aren't as inspiring. Pizza is great. If you're aiming for kosher pizza, come here (and if not, go ahead and aim for Di Fara). Unlike a lot of kosher pizza in the hood, there's a good balance between the cheese, sauce and crust. The cheese is good and the sauce isn't sickly sweet. The crust is generally thin and crunchy / chewy. The pizza is not the oily variety; although I tend to like oily pizza like Di Fara, I can still appreciate the slices from Jerusalem II as well. The grandma slice wasn't so good. You can see in the pictures I've uploaded -- either they made a mistake and gave me a Sicilian slice by accident or else the grandma slice has a crust that's waaay too thick and not nearly enough cheese.

A friend treated me to a couple of slices of pizza here. Enjoyed the slices and the chairs outside were comfortable.

*Edit: Went back after posting a review from a bad experience, owner said he took steps to correct the issue. He was not kidding. The staff were super friendly and helpful. Asked me if I wanted the slices cut up for my kids into bites without any prompt. We ordered some regular slices, sicilian slices and a large regular fries. Regular slice is good but the sicilian blows it out of the water. Phenomenal crust and good cheese to bread ratio. Fries were crispy (thank gd) and fresh. They asked multiple times if everything was OK. Overall I'm very glad they fixed the glitch in the system and finally are a great kosher establishment again. Conveniently located off the train, I recommend stopping by.

This is a wonderful business. The employees are nice and the food tastes good. The price is great, but I'd gladly pay a little more to eat their pizza in larger/ newer dining area. Two thumbs up
