Review by @ArielleKlein I love to eat and I love new experiences. Most kosher eating experiences are the same; a new place opens up, we try it out, food is anywhere from decent to amazing, service generally sucks, and as for ambiance, it often doesn’t exist. Overall, apart from some restaurants with fabulous food, the [...]

Wolf & Lamb Steakhouse, the popular midtown Manhattan restaurant, is opening up a new location in Midwood, on the corner of Coney Island Ave. & Ave. M. This space has been occupied by at least 1-2 other kosher restaurants over the past 10+ years, but hopefully this unique location will work well for the existing [...]

Scrolling through my Facebook feed, I noticed people asking what kosher restaurants were open in their various neighborhoods.
