J&R Pizzeria — Restaurant in Kingston

I wish there were more stars to give them a higher rating. Wow where do I begin?! We came from the city for a camping trip and among all of the hustle and bustle of the trip we forgot our connecting piece to our propane stove, so after a few days of cooking over fire and choking myself out we decided we were going to take out. Well J & R's was the first place we picked because of the ratings, and we'll, I am so glad we did. We have found our new go to place every time we are down their way. The reviews didn't lie one bit. We came at the latter end of the night when they were almost closed( our bad we never thought to see if they were open). But I believe it may have been the owner who insisted we stay anyway. We would have but I didn't want to keep them after they closed so we ordered and waited to take our food out. He made our cheese pizza first probably assuming that was for the kids so while we waited for the second the kids could have eaten it. He kept insisting we were ok to stay. Then when the order was done he looked to see if it was cheaper to pay singly for my pizzas even though I got the special just because one was a cheese only pizza not a specialty. I tried to tip him and he wouldn't take it. I paid for my pizza's then realized I forgot about the pop I had so I went to pay him and he said it's on me. I again tried to tip him and he he cupped the tip jar so I couldn't put money in it. Then ran around the counter to hold the door for us. I'm sorry this was a long rant review but it was the good kind. I loved the Donair pizza and cheese pizza. I can't wait to go back to get a Donair and other yummies. This is, and I mean is the FIRST place in my whole life that I've ever had this much exceptional service in my life! Thank you for your outstanding business, hospitality and food. We...

Okay, so I was told that this was the place to go in Kingston, so I had to try it out.

I was there for the week on a work trip.

First time I ordered a donair pizza, which was good, but I should have ordered a bigger size.

While I was waiting I saw something on the menu that stirred me into a frenzy.

There it was, big and bold.

A Steak King.

Now, I used to get them at the King of Donair here in Halifax, but I haven't been able to to find me one since King of Donair stopped making the Steak King and decided to call themselves KOD.

That's right.

They went and got sissified.

Now, don't get me wrong. The KOD (pause to spit), still has the best donairs in Halifax, but when they stopped making the Steak King they broke my heart.

Well, J&R Pizzeria put a big old greasy bandaid across my poor old broken heart.

So I went back the next day and got myself a Steak King.

The fellow who ran the place was a nice enough gent. He asked me how I liked that Steak King.

"Go away," I said. "Me and this Steak King want to be alone together."

So I tell you this. There is another pizzeria in Kingston that I had planned to try, but once I saw that Steak King I didn't bother going anywhere else.

Next time you pull into Kingston, park yourself handy to J&R Pizzeria and order yourself something good to eat!

I guarantee good...

Large Donair pizza Xlarge garlic fingers Med garlic fingers Med pepperoni pizza Small veggie pizza

$94 order and they didn't "combo" anything. Upon arrival to pick up our pizza, I noticed all sorts of signs for "two large pizzas for..." and " two garlic fingers for..". I paid full price for everything. The guy on the phone should have led me in the direction of saving a bit of loot and giving me a break on some food.

Donair pizza could have used more Donair meat. Small veggie pizza looked as though it had a half a cup of water poured in the middle...so soggy. And probably the most frustrating, a good 1.5 - 2 inches of crust on everything! Why? Why would you do that?? Oh, to save money on toppings and things for the pizzas.

Kod was always a stop for me in my early days of hanging in Scotia, I'll just give my money who will actually earn...
