J.R. Pizzeria - Chicken Parmigiana hero was very delicious definitely would recommend this place to all my friends and fellow yelpers as well - Pizza Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Pizza used to be better..now it seems that they who make the tomato sauce put red pepper flakes or some other spice thats giving stomach burning. Keep the tomato sauce plain so that the customers can season it the way they like it. Thanks.From former customers. read more

My favorite pizza here is the square with just sauce!!! I highly recommend, best there is

Pretty standard fast-casual, no-frills Brooklyn pizzeria. Went to pickup lunch for the family last week but since we are new to the neighborhood we didn't order our two large pies until we got there. Ended up waiting about 30 min to make, but the nice man that took our order made sure we took a menu home so that we could call-in our order next time to avoid the wait. Good looking out. We got a large pie with broccoli and mushrooms, and another large pie that was half pepperoni/half without. We also got an order of garlic knots, and it all came out to under $60 which is very reasonable/affordable. The pies/slices were large indeed; generous portions. The crust is thin yet fluffy and chewy. read more

See all

Ordered Chicken parm over ziti. Huge portions I had to share with my girl. Sauce was delicious. Definitely hit the spot. read more

I have to laugh at the 5 star reviews. Most people don't have the faintest clue what goes into a good pizza. I laugh at all of you sad sacks. Ordered a pie with sausage and a calzone. It wasn't a *bad* pizza; it just wasn't a very good pizza. The sauce was so mild that it was almost tasteless. It was also slightly sweet, which is a huge "pizza pet peeve" of mine. This is how you separate pizza lovers from the schmucks. The schmucks like their pizza sauce to taste like Hunt's tomato sauce. Sweet. Bleah!!! The cheese was slightly bland too. A bit salty, which can be good on pizza, but it didn't have that deliciousness that fresh mozzarella has. Crust had good texture: the slices folded nicely. But, here again, the dough was bland. Not much flavor. Don't get me wrong... the pizza was "okay", but I wouldn't purposely walk in and get a slice again unless I was extraordinarily hungry. The calzone was alright. Why so big? I'm not complaining about the size, but I will complain that they don't serve tomato sauce with calzone like... pretty much every single solitary pizza store does in New York City. Seriously, dummies. How much does your crummy tomato sauce cost you that you have a problem serving sauce with your calzone? I guess business is good enough that you feel comfortable pissing off customers? You know what? I don't even want your sauce. It sucks. I made my own A+ fresh pasta sauce and I used that. Much better. read more

J.R. Pizzeria - Calzone is served without sauce -- they wanted to charge me for sauce for the calzone. Morons. - Pizza Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Great tasting pizza at amazing price! I recommend the 18" pizza at $20. Seating makes it a great place to hang out with a group of friends after school. We were even able to hold a small workshop here. I appreciate good customer service and hospitality at eateries, and this pizzeria deserves a 10/10 for this. Frank served us hot pizza, rearranged our tables to fit our group, and made sure we had a great experience. Highly recommend the pizza and the space! read more

In a borough with so many pizza choices, I go out of my way to come to JnR's on Kings Highway. Why you ask? Because this is the BEST pizza in NY period. The crust is always crusty, the cheesy is always stretchy and the sauce is perfect. They have tables and the place is clean if you're eating in. But, we usually get delivery because we're fat and lazy. They have lots of choices if you don't like pizza - entrees, chicken rolls etc. (Side note - if you don't like pizza, seek professional help.) The chicken rolls are pretty amazing; make sure you get sauce on the side to mop. I'm deliberately maintain friendships with Midwood people, so we can order food from here under the guise of me visiting them. read more

I've known this place since I was a teenager. The pizza always tastes great. Pepperoni pie is a bit overpriced compared to the regular cheese pie. I took off a star because we ordered from them online and they didn't have garlic knots so instead of giving us back $2 they applied "credit" for our next order..... read more

Real authentic Brooklyn pizza with excellent pricing and great customer service. My wife has been going to this place for 13 years and I've been visiting for two years. I recommend the garlic knots and the regular NY slice. The people are so nice that we brought them Turkish sausage in order to replace the pepperoni and they did the pie for us. The price again is reasonable and inexpensive. The quality of the food is amazing and authentic Italian style pizza. Go for the slice and soda special or order a pie. If your in BK kings highway go to JR. read more

This is the best pizza with the best service in Brooklyn. I am super selective about my pizza so if I say it's great the pizza has to amazing. The crust/cheese/sauce/spice/herbs are all beautifully balanced. I never do slices, it's much smarter to just get a whole pie and heat up leftovers in the toaster the next day for breakfast. read more

J & R Pizzeria is really special. Happy vibe. Every thing we had here was outstanding. All of the staff are extremely courteous - you certainly feel welcome and taken care of. I certainly see myself returning here in the future. read more

I have ordered pizza from other places in the neighborhood but this is the place i always keep going back to. Very good pizza and service is also good. read more

Workers treat people different when owner is there...not very polite on the phone when taking orders

When my friends in Brooklyn make their own pizza (which kicks ass, btw) they first buy the dough here. And, the pizza at J & R kicks ass on its own as well. read more

Amazing pizza, really friendly staff, and big slices too. I'm willing to say one of the top 5 best in Brooklyn. The price is understandable given the sheer size of the pizza and the pizza itself is delicious. Highly recommended. read more

Bleh. J & R Pizza was great during my junior high school days, but now it just falls short. Their pizza repertoire includes a regular slice, sicilian, white, and marinara, the latter being the only recommendation on my end. This does have a nice conservative environment. More middle-age and older people will enjoy this place and the TV provided. Not really for the younger (below 30) generation. Granted, this place is inexpensive, but the wait in between pizzas can be a huge problem. *I would also not recommend anything other than the pizza. **P.S.: I must say the zeppole are good, but again it is just pizza dough deep fried. Everything deep-fried is better, so I will not give this 3 stars because of that perk. read more

Visited twice this week. Food is standard. Service is fast. Good quality and would come back, but not amazing.

My neighborhood pizza spot with decent pizza and rolls. It's one of the bigger pizza spots in the area so if you want to dine in, this is the place to go. It's pretty clean, the staff are friendly and there's a tv, for those who don't want to miss a game. read more

Stood at the counter for 10 minutes and no one asked me what I wanted, even asked someone who had come in after me what she wanted. So, I left. Looked good but I can't tell you. Kind of got the vibe that you had to be a regular to get any good service, which is dumb. I'm from the area but I just don't go there much. read more

Delicious, greasy, Scrumptious. From my high school days. Great hole-in-the-wall. (Part of Best NY PIzza: The Haiku Series) read more

Ive been here a few times, got delivery too. The place is a standard pizzeria, the pizza is good and they make it how you like it. The place has plenty of tables to sit in and the environment is nice. They have an LCD HD tv playing movies for the customers but its just basic cable, TNT, USA, maybe HBO. Their menu is filled with multiple dishes like spaghetti and meat balls, hot subs, etc. I recommend the place for groups, you can watch the movie and discuss it, as well as get good pizza for your buck. I find myself getting delivery from them, it takes about 20-30 minutes but the pizza is hot and fresh. If you live in Midwood or around that area and don't want to get broke on Di Fara Pizza, or Joe's Pizza then this is the right place for you to get that good taste for your buck. read more

Been going to this local pizza shop since I was a kid. I'm now 29 and things are pretty much the way I remember them. Decent pie, really love the white slice. Nice flat screen that shows games and they sell beer if you are in the mood for that. Atmosphere is lacking but hey most pizza places are. read more

I haven't tried the pizza but the food is over the moon delicious. Their tomato sauce is the best I've had and even better than L&B , food is very fresh and prices are fair. Becoming disenchanted with the drop in freshness and quality of the place I always ordered from, I tried at least 6 other local Italian restaurants. None were good. Some were downright bad. J&R is another story. Everything is cooked to perfection and you can see how fresh the ingredients are by the color/texture of the ricotta cheese. The raviolis are nice and big and the stuffed shells and lasagna are great. The only problem is that they have always had a small delivery area of maybe 10 blocks. On the day I called they had delivery by scooter so I was able to order. I was told that when the pandemic is over they will deliver to expanded areas. Sure hope this is true because I've been dreaming about their food since I ordered a few days ago but can't get there. Thank you J&R! read more

The pizza tasted like I remembered it as a kid. Before the Albanians took over pizzerias and started cutting corners. I ordered the plain slice and it was perfection. The very tall guy behind the counter was friendly and I will be back to this place as often as possible. read more

Like Joe's franchise down the street, by no means is J&R pizza a great pizza. But I like how the short guy calls me "boss". It is, however, a great place to sit and relax in the barely decorated room over a no-nonsense slice of the doughiest, gooeyest most mediocre pizza available in the area surrounded by the neighborhood vagrants and retirees. The sauce is pleasant enough, but the mealy crust and cheap translucent goo that passes for cheese are what keep it from being anything more than just another neighborhood pizza shop. The eggplant parmesian is equally satisfying in that flavorless but warm kind of way. Comfort food in a comfortable setting. read more

As a weary newb to the area, and after several unsuccessful eating adventures, I tucked my tail between my legs and ordered a small cheese pizza from this place delivery. It was here in like 20min. The delivery guy BIKED in the RAIN to bring me my pizza and bottle of diet Pepsi promptly. Oh, and I ordered a small. This is the biggest small pizza I've ever seen, talk about vanity sizing. It's a little greasy, but I'm one of those losers that likes to soak up the grease with a paper towel. This place far exceeded my expectations. Great service, tastes good, I'll get a couple meals out of it, 5 stars. read more

Way too overpriced, cheap quality cheese, cheap dough, sauce was too salty this place isn't good at all... Any of these yelpers are morons and don't know what real pizza is suppose to taste like. Let's just say for two slices an a rice ball special came to $14 dollars. The cheese falls off the slice as you pick it up to eat it Stay away !!! read more

Ordinary at best. Food mediocre and staff service is even worse. Be prepared to be charged extra for everything. Not cool, considering there's other pizza places on the block which are Cheaper with same quality of food. read more

This was one of the only places open late (we are talking 9PM) on a Saturday night. What's up Brooklyn? Why are you closing down so early on a Saturday night??? Anyway, we popped in for a quick bite. At first I was a little nervous; the place looked a bit run down/ not the cleanest - but the two slices we had were pretty decent (or maybe I was just that hungry). read more

My go-to pizzeria to order a quick pie. Been ordering from here for 10+ years. Its good and fulfilling. Chicken rolls are still small compared to other pizzerias but my wife loves their rice balls. read more

I have been eating pizza at J&R for over 35 years since the day they opened. As far as I am concerned they do make one of the best pizza's in Brooklyn. I have had pizza from most of the pizza places around (luigi's, Franks, Knapp, Lenny and John's ect...) and as far as I am concerned not many are as good as J&R. I do love Difara's but having to wait hours for Dominic to make the pizza and the huge price you pay for that pizza I stay with J&R. Their regular round pizza, the Sicilian and their grandma pies are definitely one of the best around. I also order the chicken Parmesan platter with ziti n extra sauce which always hits the spot. read more

The food is good but not much else. The place itself is clean, but the beer they sell seems to attract the neighborhood degenerates. If you decide to try them, you're better off having it delivered. read more

quick delivery, pizza was decent. Ordered a half regular, half Hawaiian pie. Hawaiian pizza consists of pineapple AND ham but only got pineapple. We called them back about missing ham and they told us it was what we ordered. They ended up delivering 4 slices of cold ham separately and again given an excuse that we have to specify toppings for Hawaiian because of allergies. I would've been more than okay if they owned up to their mistakes. read more

Staff is great..Food is great and we love the catering menu. Use for my Christmas Eve party every one thought the good awesome.

This is probably the most underrated pizza place I've ever been to in Brookyn. If you've ever tried originals pizza or L&B, the regular slice tastes EXACTLY THE SAME!!! they nailed down the recipe. It's simple, but perfect. They definitely need more recognition because I'm impressed (even though I've only ever ordered a plain slice, they never fail to please me). Will definitely become a regular place for me. read more

You can keep DiFara; I'll take this place. Not only best pizza in Bk but best pizza in NY. Soft doughy crust. Scrumptious cheese. I've turned many a soul onto this place. Nice big TV to watch sports or Oprah. Just beautiful all around. read more

Went last week to pick up a regular large pizza. They now have increased the price to $16. They have increased the price of almost everything on the menu. A slice of peperoni was already overpriced comparing to other places. I still won't go to Vesuvio's. read more

Very good square slice and spinach rolls. Delivery is always on time and the actual environment is great also. Will be ordering again

They by far have the best pizza on all of coney island. The staff is very good. The owner is a tall gentleman and he has a great attitude. The tables are always clean and a positive attitude. read more
