Food Review: Jamal’s Pizza – Chester, NS
Jamal’s Pizza is a true local gem, perfectly situated right off Highway 3 in a bustling plaza that makes it a super convenient stop, whether you're a local or just passing through from the nearby Highway 103.
From the moment you walk in, you're greeted by friendly, welcoming staff. Parking is plentiful, which adds to the hassle-free experience. On this visit, I used their online ordering system, which was incredibly smooth and user-friendly. My order was ready in just 10 minutes—despite the website estimating 20—which was a great surprise.
I went with the Small Donair Poutine this time, and it was a standout. The serving size was generous—comparable to "large" servings at some other places. Great value for the price!
Jamal’s also offers local delivery and has a wide range of specials with very competitive pricing compared to nearby spots. Their pizza, which I've had before, features a deliciously sweet sauce that really sets them apart.
During this visit, the slice rack looked like it had older slices, so I passed—but knowing most places, they’d likely have no problem making a fresh one if asked.
The inside of the restaurant was clean, with indoor seating available and a washroom for customers. They accept both cash and card payments, which adds to the convenience.
Final Thoughts: Great location, fast service, tasty food, and fair prices—Jamal’s Pizza hits all the right notes. 10/10 – Would recommend and will...
   Read moreI only eat here occasionally when I'm working. So far I've typically had pizza but read reviews on their burgers and had them a couple and I'm honestly shocked how good they make burgers when it's a pizza joint. I did have a poutine when coming off of a cold so didn't have my full taste back to give it a proper review. Overall I must say I've enjoyed all the slices I've tried. Meats, works, Donair and pepperoni over the years. Also it's fairly reasonable when compared to some other pizza places that charge a lot for a tiny slice. The staff always has been super friendly when I'm in there, and they are more personable than most. I typically lean heavily towards Jamal's vs the other pizza places in Chester when I want lunch during work for the consistency, price and taste of everything I've had. I can't wait to explore the menu more when I have more...
   Read moreRecently moved in to the area. Checking everyone out.
Their pizzas I've had are very good. Like their sweet sauce.
I'd rate higher, but after my last, paid for, Donair order (medium w/works, sauce on side), I received a small, no onions or tomatoes at all, 1 1/4 oz cup of sauce. Maybe their mediums are... small? I dunno. The Donair meat is good, medium spicy, with very little fat. But didn't appear to be double cooked. And as mentioned, I ordered with works, but theRE were no tomatoes or onions at all.
Did I get someone else's order?
And if so, who's eating my medium w/ works Donair?!?
This round, my 4 stars over all drops to 2, adding a star because there was practically no fat dripping everywhere, as there was little excess to be dripping. Additionally it does taste good. So 3 stars. For...
