M

etro Detroit is home to a variety of kosher-cer-
tified eateries. From local pizza joints to upscale 
steakhouses, to even national breakfast chains, 
there’s something for nearly every tastebud when it comes 
to finding kosher-friendly meals in the area. With summer 
in full swing and many restaurants back open for in-person 
dining (or increased carryout options), these are the estab-
lishments worth checking out for the best kosher dining 
Metro Detroit has to offer.

JERUSALEM PIZZA
26025 GREENFIELD ROAD, SOUTHFIELD
Jerusalem Pizza has a little bit of everything. On top of 
their namesake pizza (which includes vegetarian “meat” 
options), this cozy eatery serves up homemade kosher 
bagels and, most recently, sushi. Though their indoor din-
ing space has been reduced to make room for a sushi bar, 
Jerusalem Pizza continues to offer carryout.
More than 29 pizza varieties make up Jerusalem Pizza’s 
vast pizza menu. Owner Brian Jacobs says the most pop-
ular orders are Greek, barbeque “chicken,” Sephardic and 
Mexican pizzas. While there aren’t any summer dining 
specials, Jacobs explains that the sushi bar is growing in 
popularity.
“If you go to New York, every pizza store has sushi,” 
he says. Sushi was a perfect addition to Jerusalem Pizza, 
Jacobs says, because the pizza restaurant is next door to 
an Asian eatery that doesn’t offer sushi. This brings cus-
tomers to Jerusalem Pizza. Jacobs says the sushi is made-
from-scratch, cooked in-house and available in brown rice 
options.
