Shalom Japan Reviews
A very interesting menu. Great food and service. A must for every local and tourist.
Increíble fusión. So creative and delicious.
We had such a great experience at Shalom Japan on our most recent trip to New York. The food was fantastic - especially the Jew Egg and the seasonal cold ramen, which were both standouts. And don’t skip out on the pickles!
We were also pleasantly surprised by how accommodating they were with our toddler. They had a kids’ menu, brought her activities, and made us feel completely comfortable having her there.
What really stood out, though, was the service....read full review

Shalom Japan is a hidden gem that combines the flavors of Japan and Jewish cuisine. The menu features innovative dishes such as the Jew Egg, Tuna Tataki, and Matzoh Ball Ramen, which are all expertly prepared and presented. The service is friendly and attentive, with servers who radiate joy for each menu item. Standout dishes include the Spring Jew Egg, Wagyu pastrami, and the Matzoz Ball Ramen, which is a genius take on traditional soups. The restaurant also offers unique desserts like banana bread pudding and Japanese Sweet Potato Cheesecake. The atmosphere is cozy and intimate, with a vibe that makes guests feel comfortable. The Matzoz Ball Ramen has a comforting broth with vegetables that burst with flavor and freshness, and adding the egg makes it an umami bomb. The karaage is crispy, juicy, and flavorful, and the cheesecake and challah are both delicious, offering creamy and sweet options. Drinks are good, with a variety of choices from sweet to strong. Seating can be tight, but the personable service and solid recommendations make up for it. Parking may be available depending on the time of day, and public transportation is nearby. Overall, Shalom Japan is a great spot for those looking to enjoy a fusion of two cultures with tasty food and a cozy setting.
