Shalom Japan

Always enjoy coming here! Great service and food!!!

A true gem. Creative, unique, fabulous fusion cooking on a neat, hip Brooklyn Street. Wonderful staff. Not to be missed.

Incredible service with such kind and fun people! The food was delicious and unique :)

This restaurant has good food, good ambiance and great service.

Server was super attentive. (We actually had two so very well taken care of!) We had the maztoh ball soup ramen, really good. Make sure to get the scallion pancake for the table!

Shalom Japan was recommended by a friend & it exceeded expectations! Everything was delicious & had unique flavor. The service was welcoming & attentive. They also have some heated seating for outdoor dining! I will absolutely be going again soon!!

Delicious food - even cant stop thinking about the challah bread! Great out door dining with social distancing

Exquisite food. Lovely service. I am always dreaming of returning if I'm not there dining.

Definitely a unique place! All the food was lovely - not amazing blow your mind, but still lovely! I suppose it's difficult to truly blend Jewish and Japanese flavors, so the end result is more like "themed" Jewish and Japanese. For example the matzah ball ramen just really tasted like matzah ball soup with the additives (ramen, scallions, egg) sitting in there. But hey, where else are you going to get this stuff? It's a novelty place, and novelty is what you get.
Other than the food, the servers were all super helpful, energetic, and knowledgable about their stuff! A nice experience, if perhaps a bit too expensive (for me, a cheapskate) to come back very often.

I love the vibe, the food and the service. I’ve gone with friends, family, my kids, and dates. Great for creative yummy food with no pretense.

Awesome food

I love Shalom Japan Rob and his team make August feel so welcome the food is so unusual so many different flavors and textures I am addicted

Traditional Japanese was seemingly fused with another cuisine in the kitchen. Was not expecting this..

Wow, I enjoyed everything about this place

Delicious food! Highly recommend the matzoh ball ramen and the burger for brunch :)

We had an amazing time! Great food! Excellent service!

The food was more than average. A rice paddy covered with a slice of smoked salmon isn’t really a dish...

Truly terrible experience.

We had a reservation at 6pm and arrived a few minutes late (called them to let them know). Our order had been entered into the system by 6:15pm. By 7:58pm we still had one course of the omakase, which is 5 courses, and the dessert to go. They took more than 25 minutes between courses (one of which was a salad - one salad - split between three people). The food was fine, but not excellent, and the concept didn't really come through. At 7:58pm, still hungry and waiting, we asked for the bill so we could leave.

At this point, one of my guests (who was inviting) was really upset and just signed the receipt, which was for the full (overpriced) cost. The waitress told us that if we had a cutoff time we should've let them know because omakase always takes 2hrs and 15 minutes (where is this rule? never heard it in my life). She said "when you come next time you should..." and my guest just said "I don't think there will be a next time" to which she reacted poorly. She then noted that a tip should be left regardless, because it's not the waiter's fault, which, I agree, but when service has been bad, the food hasn't been good and your customer service is garbage, I'm sorry but you don't get to demand *more* things from your guests. If you're sincerely concerned about your waiter, you will discount part of the meal and I know that my guest would've left a tip, but for $250 for 4 bite-sized pieces of food, one bowl of greens to share and sparkling water, that's a lot to ask.

I highly recommend you go somewhere else, especially in Williamsburg where there are so many great options.

Shalom Japan has the perfect blend of Jewish and Japanese cuisine. I loved my matzoball ramen and need to go back so I can make my way through the menu. It is a great venue with a Japanese vibe, but I would only recommend for groups of 4 or fewer people because of space.

Great service, consistently interesting and delicious food.

Wonderful meal! Service was friendly and attentive. Each meal was delicious and enjoyed by all.

They called me the day before Valentine’s Day to tell me that it would be $125 a person prixe fix. I Felt like I got scammed and couldn’t change my plans the day before Valentines. There was no mention of the prixe fix before. The food was sub par and not very special. Walked away with a $400 check. I would never go back!

Valentines Day

Lovely as always! The food is spectacular - creative, delicious, and beautifully presented. There were a couple of truffle specials since it’s truffle season: truffle hot pockets, which are a playful rendition of a knish with potatoes and truffles wrapped in a soy skin. We also got a truffle pastrami sandwich which was an improved version of the regular menu pastrami sandwich. You should consider ordering either (depending on your truffle preference), because the pastrami is great. A bowl of ramen is the right move for the NYC winter weather. Will be back!

Amazing food and great friendly service. The sake juice boxes were so fun and delish.

Loved the food!! Great experience for brunch

All the dishes we had were amazing, our server was great and helped us figure out what to order, everything was great.

Good was very tasty. Prices were outrageous.

The staff seemed uninterested in giving a good dining experience and we were also informed that we would only be able to sit for an 1hr and 15min regardless of our reservation. Felt disrespectful and I will not be coming back or recommending. Too many other amazing restaurants where this would never happen.

Scallops were bomb bomb bomb bomb bomb bomb bomb bomb

Excellent menu and service. Will be definitely going again!

Amazing food, would go again!
Blah blah blah blah blah

Absolutely unique place that there is nothing anywhere else like it! The food was fantastic!

Shalom japan presents an innovative take on jewish and japanese cuisine. The dishes are clever, make sense and were delicious. I liked the simple menu, enough options but i was not overwhelmed. The "jew egg", matza ball ramen, and desert sorbet in particular was remarkable.

Absolutely amazing! We did the tasting menu which was a fantastic experience. We got to try nearly every delicious thing on the menu as well as get paired drinks along with every course. The staff was extremely courteous and the whole experience makes me want to go back again and again.

We did the tasting menu. It's great value but the ingredients are also not too expensive. The fusion is executed pretty well considering the vast difference between cultures. The service was slow, forgetting the drink pairing with the courses and the AC wasn't working so it was about 100 degrees in there. I prefer sitting at the bar for dinner, which is nice and spacious since they don't pack the restaurant out.

Food was underwhelming. For such a small menu I expected for some spectacular tasty plates. Oh well.

It was a bit expensive for amount of food.

My wife and I enjoyed everything about the experience.

Amazing Christmas Miyazaki hot pot Pre-fix!
