Shalom Japan is a unique restaurant in Brooklyn, New York. Found in the hip Williamsburg neighborhood, it is conveniently located near the bridge as well as many different subway lines. The brick walls, simple decor, natural light and chalkboard menus on the walls give Shalom Japan restaurant a casual, comfortable and welcoming vibe.

Co-owners and chefs Aaron Israel and Sawako Okochi created a menu that combines both Jewish and Japanese cultures as well as fresh ingredients sourced from local markets. Plates, such as matzoh ball ramen with foie gras dumpling and sake kasu challah with raisin butter, are meant to be shared with the table for dinner. Visit for brunch and enjoy the lox bowl or pastrami-don.

We came for brunch on a Sunday. The food was delicious. Very inventive melding Jewish and Asian influences. The restaurant itself is very small. We sat close to the door so we were a bit on top of people coming and going but overall fine. It was definitely expensive but very different so hard to compare. We had a birthday at the table which our server forgot so no candles with dessert which was a bit of a bummer. But overall good service, great food, and A fun experience.

Food was good not outstanding, and we felt it was a bit overpriced - particularly the ramen add-ons. Nobody left full which we felt was a bummer due to how much we ordered, but overall I’d recommend for the experience.
