John's Pizza — Restaurant in Brooklawn

Looking for a place to pick up something quick, we came upon John's Pizza. Reading the reviews, i was like "well there is a lot of people loving this place." Awesome! I'll give them a call....but the reviewers missed a few things they definitely need to work on. Let me explain now why I'm giving 3 stars instead of 5.

First when calling the store, i was hoping for a greet or a friendly voice but the guy that answered the phone sounded like he just got out of bed. I could barely hear him. I requested to pick up the pizza 20-25 mins because i was heading to the store. They did amazing with the directions i set for them, which is a plus.

Now it was time to pick it up. I walked in and the place was clean & festive with lights. With this, i gave them my first star. Cleanliness. I was not greeted, which does make it a little awkward going into a food business. Like maybe "hi. welcome to John's Pizza. are you picking up?" It'll let the customer know that you are friendly & opening. Customer Service wasn't really there either. Oh btw eating in front of the customer without washing hands...don't do that. Definitely with the world we live in now.

Well for my last two stars, the reviewers were right about the food. Pizza was tasty & fresh. So all i ask for next time if i visit, personality & customer service would make me change my 3 stars to maybe...

I hadn’t been to John’s in quite a few years and remembered it being good so decided to give it another go. Unfortunately this will probably be a one and done. We ordered a cheesesteak with extra cheese and it had hardly any cheese at all, and the meat was tough and clearly overcooked. Cheese fries had to be put in the oven when we got home as the fries were literally white like barely fried. Also got a pizza which was ok but not really anything to write home about. I also found the customer service to be pretty lacking, both on the phone while ordering and picking up- just super short and not one hello, goodbye, thank you, you’re welcome, have a nice day- nothing. I actually could overlook this if the food was worth it but that’s...

I'm an equal opportunist. I will try a pizza from anywhere and I've never met one I didn't like. But John's Pizza is the pizza from which all other pizzas should be compared. The sauce is savory, the cheese and toppings are always plentiful, and the crust is nice and thin with a crispy outer snap and a soft, chewy interior.

And if you're feeling especially hungry, get the Johnzarotti. This ain't no rinky dink, pre-made panzarotti that so many shops shell out. This is basically their full pizza flipped over and fried. And it's incredible. Don't bother with toppings either, it's...
