Aside from the fact that you’re not only ensuring the animals you eat are humanely killed, and the ingredients used are properly regulated, kosher, whether you’re a follower of the faith or not, is an exciting selection of food for your culinary adventures.

In this video, we’ll look at 5 Kosher restaurants in NYC you should consider visiting.

1. Le Marais

First on this list is probably one of the most interesting restaurants in New York. Who would expect a French restaurant to still be successful in its way even if it didn’t have cheese or pork on its menu.

The old-fashioned French steakhouse is a great way to enjoy a Kosher French culinary experience.

2. Mama Kitchen

Offering Israeli food, Mama Kitchen is a go-to for schnitzels, stews, and kebabs. A hearty soup can also be found in this Brooklyn restaurant.

Combining contemporary and classic Israeli cuisine, it’s a go-to for gyros and sandwiches.

3. Izzy’s Brooklyn Smokehouse

Izzy’s Brooklyn Smokehouse is a kosher smokehouse located in Crown Heights. From beef ribs to briskets, chicken, hot dogs, and even some barbecue tacos, Izzy’s serves a wide selection of kosher meats you can choose from.

This joint is an award-winning smokehouse that brings a twist to the southern tradition by applying modern techniques—and of course—staying Kosher.

4. Holy Schnitzel

Holy Schnitzel is a food chain that takes pride in Kosher. They use wonderful ingredients that prove why it’s still possible to enjoy great food despite the Kosher regulations. There’s a reason why they’re called regulations and no restrictions.

Their schnitzel sandwich with pastrami, peppers, kosher bacon, and breading is a must-try.

5. Gottlieb’s Restaurant

Last but not least is one of the few remaining Glatt kosher restaurants. It opened in 1962 when a Hungarian Holocaust survivor named Zoltan Gottlieb decided to share the cuisine of South Williamsburg’s Hasidic community with the locals. Try their Hungarian goulash!
