Steak Caesar Salad
Marina F.

Definitely not a huge fan of Holy. I have gotten sandwiches here including the shwanitzel which has shwarma, schnitzel, fries, and sauce in it. It tastes like a whole lot of breading and not much meat. It was also greasy. Since I did not like my sandwich last time, I switched to a salad. I got steak Caesar salad. The portion was nice but the steak wasn't great quality and I had higher expectations for it. Also the dressing didn't really have much flavor.

Baguette about it.

My sister-in-law is a doll. A doll who happened to grow up eating Spaghetti with Ketchup. No doubt you're thinking, 'ewww," as I did when I first heard this. But it's a thing, apparently, among some orthodox Jewish families. And right or wrong, this apathetic approach to cooking, if you can even call it that, has always informed my perception of kosher restaurants. Sure, I know they've evolved since I was a kid and I know that especially here in NYC, good kosher restaurants are not the oxymoron I've long thought they were, but still... So it was during a recent lunch here with my strictly observant brother, nephews and aforementioned sister-in-law: Anyway, wound up here after our first pick, Posh Tomato, a few blocks away, was inexplicably closed. The um... ambiance, or really, total lack thereof, didn't do much to boost my confidence. But you know what??? The food turned out to be pretty tasty! Was totally into my classic 'Holy Schnitzel' Sandwich on a Baguette, topped with the works, which included hummus, tahini, Israeli salad and hot sauce. Cajun Fries were good too. Sandwiches here run $10.99 and up. Not exactly inexpensive, but I could only finish half and took the rest home. And really, I have had pricier sandwiches in this town that were far less satisfying. Sad, but true. Enjoyed the Hummus in particular, and everyone else was similarly happy with their food picks, including Wings, Shawarma, Falafel, and various Sandwiches. Service was pleasant too. Can't believe I'm saying this, but I'd definitely return.

Greeting- Yes Vibe- Cool Price- Expensive (kosher) Parking- challenging BR- only one Service- fast Food The holy Toast is a chicken shnitzel with pastrami. The pastrami sucks. $12.99 Lunch special includes fries(suck) those corn starch coated fries i hate! Why! Fresh fries people! And a coke. The shnitzel is tasty thin sliced chicken cutlet with the works. It tastes just like Shnitzl down the block. Same bread and dressings. But this place looks a lot cleaner! WIGB? Maybe

HOLY SCHNITZEL! I've been to a lot of places that served food similar to Holy Schnitzel, but none of them were particularly close to me (mostly in Manhattan). I really like HS because it's pretty authentic. When I went, I was probably the only non-Jewish person there, which really enforces the authenticity of the cuisine offered. So how it works is that you step up to the counter, order, and wait for your name to be called. If it's pickup, they'll likely just hand it over to you. Once your name is called, you can just step to the back and pick it up. The entire restaurant is centered on a no-waiter experience, where after you're done; you clean up after yourself and all. We ordered their pepper steak sandwich, which honestly was a little dry and tasteless, but their shwarma platter was golden. I had it with Israeli Salad (although this Israeli salad was not that fresh or nicely chopped), the chicken was amazing. The fries were okay, not too great. Basically - get the shwarma with better sides. Another thing I really like about HS is that they have a lot of options - their menu is loaded with American options (which I'm sure are Kosher as well) like Buffalo wings, burgers, and a massive amount of wraps and sandwiches.

Cornflake schnitzel is amazing. As as the onion rings. The different sauces on the side make the order!

Some of the best kosher fast-food burgers in Brooklyn. Consistently great food. My favorites: the Crispy Ranch or the Holy Guacamole Burger.

I am reading some different review of B&B and I do not understand why anyone is giving this shop…read moreless than 5 stars, (and that's after my first visit here.). We were a group of 8 with two children. After touring Crown Heights since early morning, we stopped here for lunch. We walked in, were nicely greeted and sat down immediately. The waitress came over, said hello and immediately took a drink order. They. have a pretty extensive list of wine and beer here along with their very complete food menu. I skipped the appetizer but a few of my friends had the wings. I made the mistake of not tasting one and they looked delicious. Who ever had one also enjoyed them. I went straight for the burger, most of of did. Their classic burger was, [well] a classic. A great patty of [kosher] beef with all the toppings. It was perfectly cooked [medium] and flavorful and moist. This is definitely a great burger spot. Too bad it's a 45 minute drive from me. Service was great and our waitress very attentive to detail. I am really looking forward to a return trip with my wife. I want to experience their great looking desserts. KUDO's to the team here at Boeuf & Bun.

If you are in the neighborhood I would say, these smash burger are a good option for you…read more Ambiance: Came here in the afternoon, and the vibe was relaxed with nice music in the background and a lot of seatings. Food: Smash burger are great, they are not the best but I would rank it as top 5 in the city. I was pretty surprised how they charge for cheese (the place is mostly Kosher, and the Cheese of I remember is vegan) which contradict the concept of smash burgers. The fries were overly cooked if not almost burned, so I couldnt eat half of the basket. Service: ordering regular fries and getting trufle fries just to charge me extra is not a nice move. But having those popcorn and water cup made up for it little bit. If I knew I would be charged that much (burger + fries) I would have chosen from the lunch special menu
