Boasting a relaxed atmosphere with elegance and style, the restaurant expects to become nationally acclaimed for artisinal kosher cuisine- quality food that’s skillfully crafted right in the back of the restaurant. With briny pickles barreled onsite, high quality meats smoked in a state-of-the-art smokehouse right at our restaurant and a cornucopia of locally produced ingredients, the cuisine is an alchemy of Mediterranean, traditional kosher and slow-food fare. The Kitchen Table’s menu is also accentuated by California culinary sensibilities and standards, delivering a distinctive kosher menu unavailable and unmatched anywhere else in the world. The restaurant was founded by local community members who shared a passion for food and saw an opportunity to provide the Bay Area with kosher food that was fresh, different and uniquely appealing to the diverse demographics of the region.
They are under the supervision of the Vaad Hakashrut of Southern California. Entree’s will ranges from $13 to $28.
