Modern kosher deli-grill with spacious upstairs seating, big portions, and crowd-pleasing schnitzel and burgers; prices lean high for some items and waits can spike at busy times.
Why it gets a B for overall quality
House of Glatt delivers solid neighborhood dining with strong food quality highlighted by excellent schnitzel and smash burgers, paired with exceptional space comfort in its bright, spacious upstairs. However, inconsistent execution during peak times—including occasional undercooked items and notable waits—prevents a higher grade, while variable service attentiveness during rushes tempers the otherwise friendly experience. A reliable kosher destination for families and regulars, though not a citywide draw.
Restaurant Summary
This modern kosher butcher-deli hybrid feels clean and spacious, with a bright upstairs where trays land after you order at the kiosk. Guests describe the scene as relaxed most days, buzzing on Thursdays. One diner summed it up: "Fresh, tasty sandwiches and a comfortable spot to sit," even if waits stretch when it gets busy. The cooking leans hearty and familiar more than flashy—think crispy schnitzel, smash burgers, and a well-stacked steak sandwich with chimichurri. Flavors are bold and portions generous; pricing is mid-to-high for fast casual, typical of kosher venues. A few reports note slower handoffs and the odd undercooked patty, but most agree the food hits the spot when fresh from the line. Families will find it straightforward: chicken fingers, schnitzel, and simple grilled chicken keep kids happy, and the roomy upstairs makes seating easy. Vegetarians may struggle with choices, as the menu is meat-forward; plan accordingly if you need meat-free options.
