King David Pizza

One of the most kosher experiences you will have in this city– You walk in and the store splits in two!
One side is for meat– smoked meat sandwiches, chicken fingers and other items I forget to remember. They divide the meat items from the dairy items.
The other side of the store seemed to be mostly vegetarian options– where i ended up due to the fact i was in bit of a rush. I randomly stopped by to grab a slice of pizza only to find out that most items are veggie based. I was not disappointed-​and thank my luck for this new experience.
Both the eggplant and spinach pizza was delicious. One is not thinking in the most healthiest fashion when considering pizza. However I was satisfied in all means. Hunger gone, well balanced meal and it tasted pretty great!
Thanks to the owner who gave us the complimentary falafels– He knew whats up. Those little fried up veggie balls were PROPER FAM!
liked it!

It really amazes me how the same ingredient, used in the same dish could turn out so differently.
In this case I’m referring to King David’s eggplant pizza. So sought after and pliable a vegetable in term of its many uses that it’s often referred to as the «meat of the Mediterranean».
Order it as a pizza slice and the featured ingredient is thinly cut along its whole length. Allowing the short stay in the pizza oven to roast it to a soft, slightly sweet and nearly creamy goodness. The slice is colourfully framed by red & yellow hot banana peppers and a single tomato. While the top is dusted with sesame seeds. The crust has just the right thickness and appropriate texture that yields a welcome crunch with every bite.
Now contrast that satisfying nosh by ordering it as a whole pie and you’ll experience a real let down. For my large size pizza order the staff decided to take a short cut by slicing the eggplant thickly across its centre. A dumb move because it resulted in an undercooked, chewy and unpleasant topping which is the featured attraction.
Their inconsistency is the source of my ongoing frustration with King David Pizza. When they execute a dish right, like the eggplant pizza slice, it soars. However, when they falter on the execution and skimp on the quantity of ingredients it’s maddening.

Just delish. I look forward to babysitting my mom as she lives n the hood. Delicious falafel balls, yummy salad and great selection of pizza slices.

They have the best Falafal in the whole GTA and I mean it. Full of flavors and aroma.

The falafel here is very tasty, you can even have it baked instead of fried.

Great Kosher pizza. Tastes New York-​style. Sad that for a well-​reviewed place, it is small and not very ornate. Will definitely be back when I come back to this area of Toronto. I’m just glad that I stopped by after passing this place countless times.
