J2 Pizza (Boro Park) – Restaurant

Eighteenth Avenue in Borough Park, and a kosher dairy counter doing the neighbourhood's pizza run. The pies come three ways - regular round cheese, square thick deep dish, and a thin square gramma - with mushroom and vegetable versions beside them. Round it out with garlic knots, spicy fries, cream cheese sticks and a kani salad, or take falafel in a pita if pizza is not the plan. It is a slice shop first: quick, dairy, certified, priced for a family order. Unfussy, and exactly what an 18th Avenue pizza stop should be.
