    Kosher Japanese restaurant? I wasn’t expecting much, but this place really surprised me: the ramen was out of this world and all the appetizers were delicious. Good service also. Make a reservation.

    “Shalom Japan...sounds almost like the punch line to a joke—but the married couple Aaron Israel and Sawako Okochi…are far from kidding around. At its best, their food is fusion in the truest sense.” Mehr erfahren

    The matzo ball ramen is very unique, but the okonomiyaki, teriyaki duck, and the challah (ahem the butter) are the winners here. Knishes are good but not in the same realm as the above.

    Creative and surprisingly restrained Jewish-Japanese fusion fare from a chef couple in a sleepy corner of South Williamsburg. Don't miss the challah baked with sake kasu.

    This.is.officially.my.favorite.restaurant. And I’m picky as f***. delicious & unique. Service was on point. Highly recommend the “weird” sake flight, ramen, and bread pudding.

    Okinomiyaki is pretty good for app and the ramen with matzo is fine, but i dunno if i call it ramen..more like chicken noodle soup with hint of asian? Also a bit pricey vs other ramen spots

    One of the coolest restaurants in Williamsburg! The matzohball ramen soup is the perfect blend of Jewish/Japenese cuisines. Everything on the menu is delicious. Omakase menu is $65!

    Make reservations. The menu changes daily and is displayed on a chalkboard above the bar so sit at the bar for easy ordering. Great and creative food, toro toast and challah bread are amazing.

    Highly recommend New Year’s Duck, Scallops, Grilled Chrysanthemum Greens & Kale. You're fine skipping the Lox Bowl. By far the best feature of this place is the Hitachino Nest White Ale on tap

    The lox bowl was my favorite! It was well put together. The duck was tasty, too. I also tried the tuna cream cheese toast. It was good, but they're really small though. The asparagus was alright.

    With no idea what to expect from a Jewish- Japanese fusion restaurant I was pleasantly surprised & blown away by how creative and delicious everything was - chefs tasting menu is the only way to go!

    The tuna tataki in a black tahini sauce with broccoli and grilled red onion and the teriyaki duck wings among other yummy things.

    Matzoh ball ramen and wagyu beef tartar were excellent, but the real winner was the challah chocolate banana bread pudding. I would have taken a picture, but I ate it too quickly.

    The sakekasu challah bread is a must, mostly because that golden raisin butter is one of the tastiest, most memorable things you'll eat.

    Definitely get the matzo ball ramen and the shana tova duck. And the desserts. And a hitachino (on draft)! And everything else.

    Wagyu grilled steak, pastrami-stuffed chicken, and aburaage raclette pouches. Um... I know, right? Best restaurant I've been to so far in Brooklyn. Huge selection of drinks as well.

    I️ love this place. The okonomiyaki is one of my favorites — very flavorful. Great for brunch or dinner. The lox bowl is also a go-to favorite.

    Creative Japanese with a Jewish twist...favorites were the lox bowl, Jew egg and the fugu tempura special. Mazeman too. Worth a visit !

    Don't miss the Okonomiyaki pancake thang. It appears the preparation changes on occassion, but its base is (delicious emoji) good.

    Chefs Sawako Okochi and Aaron Israel, both veterans of top NYC restaurants, wanted to explore their roots, but in merging these two divergent cuisines, they advanced something utterly unique. Mehr erfahren

    Go here for a splurge-style din. Rotating menu, but if they have them, challah, okonomiyaki, duck, and lox bowl are all worth ordering to share.
