Judaica Store in Roslyn Heights, Long Island

Zion Lion is a Judaica shop at 390 Willis Avenue, Roslyn Heights, NY 11577, in Nassau County on the North Shore of Long Island. The phone is (516) 437-5466. Everything in the online catalogue is the same stock as the shop floor, so what shows as in stock is on the shelf.

Give us a call before you visit. Two minutes on the phone confirms the current opening times and whether the specific piece you have in mind is out on display, which saves the drive if it is a higher-value item that moves.

What Is Worth Seeing in Person

Most of the catalogue you can buy online without a second thought. Three things are different.

• Sterling silver — weight and finish are most of what you are paying for, and neither photographs. A silver kiddush cup in the hand is a different object from the same cup on a screen.
• Ketubot — the paper, the border detail and the physical scale all matter, and a photograph flattens all three. This is the piece customers most often want to see before committing.
• Menorahs — height and footprint decide whether a menorah works on a particular windowsill or sideboard. The difference between a 12-inch and an 18-inch piece is the difference between it fitting the room and not.

Call, Email or Send a Message

Call (516) 437-5466 for anything time-sensitive — checking a piece is still in stock, asking about size, or placing an order over the phone. Use the email address above for anything that needs a photograph attached, and the form on this page if you would rather do neither. Messages come through with your name, email and phone, so we can reply whichever way suits you.

Worth asking about before you order: whether a piece is currently on the floor, how a fragile item will be packed, and what would suit a particular occasion and budget. Gift questions are the ones most worth asking — the right answer usually depends on what the household already owns, which is not something a product page can know.

Where We Are on Long Island

Willis Avenue runs through Roslyn Heights just off the Long Island Expressway and the Northern State Parkway, which puts the shop within a short drive of most of the North Shore: Roslyn, Roslyn Harbor, Greenvale, Albertson, East Hills, Old Westbury, Manhasset, Port Washington, Great Neck, Westbury, Mineola and Garden City. Customers come from across Nassau County and from Queens and Manhattan, and orders ship nationwide for everyone else.

Ordering, Shipping and Returns

Orders placed on the site ship free above $99 and are packed from the same stock as the shop. Full terms are on the shipping policy and returns and exchanges pages. For anything fragile or high-value — silver, crystal, glass menorahs — it is worth calling first so we can talk through packing rather than you finding out after it ships.

Before a Holiday, Call Ahead

The two busiest stretches of the year are the weeks before Chanukah and the weeks before Pesach. Popular designs move quickly in both, and the silver especially. If you have something specific in mind for a holiday, a call well ahead of the date is the difference between getting the piece you wanted and getting the one that was left.
