Food- Good but I didn't know how to enjoy it, I hope to try out new foods from the menu with friends! Service- the best. Went over and above to bring me food to my car as I was waiting Ambiance - just right read more

Haven't been here in years, and we're both glad we stopped in. Falafel sandwich was FABULOUS! Other people's dishes looked great. Place isn't comfortable, but we will now be regulars for sure. Worth going to from out of the area. read more

Holy Schnitzel was a solid option for a Kosher Lunch on Staten Island. Service was a bit rough, like many other businesses they may be struggling to recruit employees. My guest and I waited approx 10 minutes to order from the counter. The food was good, chicken sandwich was by far the star while the hummus was ok. The falafel sandwich while chock full it was missing some vinegar veggies, spice etc. I expect to pay more for Kosher but the prices are a bit out of line. I will likely give them another chance because I have a orthodox employee and there are limited Kosher options on Staten Island. read more

Holy Schnitzel! I wish I could upload video- might have to start posting on tik tok. 10/10 would order again. Pastrami Egg rolls were fire. Kinda hard to figure out which sauces I got. read more

Holy Schnitzel - Moroccan Beef Cigar Platter (4 Pieces) Potato Cigar Platter (6 Pieces) Hummus Platter Pastrami Egg Rolls (3 Pieces) Falafel in a Pita - Kosher Near Me - Staten Island, New York

Very good food! I didn't order from this place for years because the way things were handled by the previous owner and the food quality at this venue. But under this new ownership (few years I heard) the food is really terrific and the menu was revamped and priced appropriately! I ate the Shawarma and it was an explosion of great flavors with fresh ingredients in a crunchy baguette,. My wife ordered their shinitzel sandwich and was delicious too. My kid got their tenders with fries - - - again, everything very fresh! The only negative thing about the experience was the delivery. We waited 1:20 min to get our food and we live just 8 blocks from the restaurant! It's a real problem here. read more

I was certainly excited to try this place with some friends. I was not familiar with their food and follow a kosher diet, so believe me how excited I was seeing a menu where I could enjoy bacon. Sadly, that's where it ends. For one, the menus need to be updated. They have a sign that says prices on the menu are not reflective of what they truly are. So they can make a sign but not a new menu? How hard is it to print a new menu and laminate it? I ordered The Holy Double, and waited about an hour for my food to come and it never arrived. One of my friends received his falafel wrap in minutes and it looked good. Another friend ordered a rice bowl that didn't come until I asked where is our food. 20 minutes pass.I ask where is mine and they said "it'll be right out". 20 minutes pass. I ask again and they ask me what kind of sandwich I want (even though it says on the device "The Holy Double"), and they bring me the wrong one entirely. I return it, then later ask again. They point to my alleged sandwich as it was being made (it was not my sandwich). I ask once more and a worker says once again "it'll be right out". People that came into this restaurant later than me were getting their food faster. At this point I requested my refund. How long does it take to make a sandwich? The food seems really good so I will come back in the future to ACTUALLY try some. Until then, please get your act together! read more

The reason I came here is because my mother is annoying picky & kosher. My father also claimed that they've had food here before & it was flavorful. However, today would be one of the greatest upsets since the stolen election of 2020. I placed an order for what should be staple food items. Shnitzle, shawarma & israeli salad to name a few. The Shnitzle: quite thin, cooked fine & decently sized. Seasoning apparently wasn't available today. No salt, pepper, paprika used. The Israeli salad : no salt whatsoever & was essentially some tomatoes & cucumbers. The chicken shawarma: came on an Italian hero. I swear, even though I'm not supposed to according to religion, but it came on a fricken Italian hero. Guess that's Staten Island for you. Also ordered some "popcorn chicken" which was more like tasteless rubber. As described by my spouse. The "Kung Fu chicken" was absolutely a kick in the face. They likely used paprika for coloring but there was no flavor again. I had to get salt, pepper, garlic powder & mix it up. I was able to use my tv culinary skills from watching Geordan Ramsey yell at enough people to add just the right amount to make it take palatable & not get verbally degraded by my family members. The chicken fingers were by far the best item today but also no flavor. Thankfully the bbq sauce saved the day, although I specifically asked for honey bbq sauce. So, we got (2) fries, (2) popcorn chicken, (2) shawarmas, (2) israeli salads, (1) chicken fingers & (1) king fu chicken for a total with tax of 125 horrible spend dollars. I'm sorry, I don't mind supporting local businesses over fast food chains and big box stores, but I they should hire whoever they used to have or train someone to properly season the food. I will never order from here again. The 5 of us could have went to Angelina's kitchen for the same amount minus drinks and at least myself would have been satisfied. Sadly, my spouse is going heat me complain about this horrific experience for 3-4 days. As fir the owners, I apologize, but also don't feel too bad about my honest review. Seriously, correct your kitchen. read more

If you want to clearly read a menu and know what the food prices are, this place isn't for you. Menu had prices and lunch specials listed and we were there on a weekday 11-3. Ordered a lunch special sandwich, 2 shwarma rice bowls and a create your own salad with Brisket. We expected to pay the prices on the menu, and the waiter/manager did not inform us any prices would be different. The check came and the lunch special of 15.99 was 22.99, and the salad with toppings should have been 20.24 but we were charged 22.49. Normally pointing this out to a waiter would get an apology and quick correction but we were given explanations such as: 1) the menu says "prices subject to change anytime" (from the time we ordered to the time we paid?) 2) the computer has new prices (but your menu doesn't, nor does it have a note. And the waiter did not inform us about the price change). 3) kosher food is expensive (of course, but you still expect to pay price on menu) Eventually the waiter/manager called another manager and he agreed to refund $4, which makes no sense since we were overcharged more than that. Anyway, if you choose to eat here check your bills very carefully. Food was okay (schwarma), good (Brisket, matzoh ball soup), nice portions. read more

So I am here for the second time in a month. Not much has changed. The food is ok. A change from cooking at home. The problem is two fold. Eating here is nit very appealing. One expects when you sit at a table it should at least be clean. This is a very little ask. Sticky, crumbs and no one attempted to clean. The place looks very tired. Considering the prices an attempt to clean the place up should be obvious. Unfortunately they have a captive audience. read more

I just want to update this review because this restaurant is THE best, most reliable kosher restaurant on the Island (and their other locations too!) For those of us who keep kosher, especially on Staten Island, it can be really hard to find exceptional food that is reliable, delicious, and has great hours. Holy Schnitzel is by far the epitome of this. Everything is fresh, clean, yummy and well prepared. Their Frenchy Schnitzel with honey mustard is my FAVE! read more

Do not waste your money. Not real pastrami that I ever had. Disgusting, old and like rubber. Threw out in the garbage when I got home. 18.00 down the drain. I told them a half of sandwich. Place not clean with food droppings throughout, on the floor read more

If I could have given zero stars I would have. It took over 2 hours for my order to arrive and the food was freezing cold and dried out.

I love this place nice and clean and close to my house plus it's kosher, their chicken shawarma is amazing

This review is for Holy Schnitzel in Brooklyn. Horrible service. Food was soggy and the container of salad was half empty on two orders. They got the order wrong. Put in corn instead of tomatoes. Everything tasted like olives. Didn't order olives They charge $1.00 to put the dressing on the side. Call them and they leave you on hold. Simply horrible. read more

Ordered delivery and it came on time. The burger was absolutely terrible. Dry and literally NOTHING on it- bun and overcooked meat. Practically inedible. The onion rings were nice and thick, but the breading/batter was falling off each ring. By the end I had a pile of fried breading/batter. Flavor was pretty good, but poor execution. The best thing I got was the Holy Toasty. I wouldn't call the chicken "crispy," but the charred bread certainly fit in that category. Really good flavors in here though made up for the bites that just tasted like burned bread. Overall, no need to go back, but not a terrible option. TIP: Order through their website, not grubhub. The menu items are cheaper. read more

I've been to this place a few times and always have a satisfactory experience! I've only tried their wraps (falafel wrap and spring wrap) and they are delicious. They're also very accommodating if you need any modifications. I'm not Jewish but I was attracted to this place because of the healthy food options and the vegan/vegetarian options. It's rare to find a place in this island that can offer that. I will definitely come back. (My review is actually 4.5 stars. I'd add the other half if they had more vegetarian/vegan options. Other than that, try this place out!) read more

Holy Schnitzel - "spring wrap": mixed greens/carrots/eggplant/red onions/sundried tomatoes/avocado/pesto sauce & a strawberry banana drink. yum!! - Kosher Near Me - Staten Island, New York

I went in to get my husband a hot pastrami sandwich & was greeted by a masked owner/ worker not sure, & was very impressed having walked out of 3 stores for lack of a mask or one put on improperly.! As I turned to give my order to the men behind the counter I noticed 1 had no mask & other 2 wore it under their noses!! That first man asked if I wanted a menu I said " no thank you . I did want a sandwich but ur workers have no mask on or it's on improperly worn!" as I turned to leave he yelled out . " have a nice day".. I guess they don't need business! If I could it would b a 0 review! lol read more

Some of the freshest and most tastiest food I have ever had on the island. No wonder this place is always packed. What a find. The soups here are simply to die for. Try the lemon potatoe. Favorite sandwich is the Big Sister. This place rocks. read more

First of all let me say the food here is delicious, the fries are some of the best I've had in my life. There are so many sauces to choose from and the variety of sandwich/ wrap/salad combos is unreal. BUT I have to say the schnitzel is not tasty. It's often hard to bite through, rubbery and flavorless. Sometimes I forget to order my sandwiches without the schnitzel, and perform tabletop surgery to remove it. I can't eat it. 4 stars seems really generous considering their facility is named after their schnitzel.. but they do everything else SO WELL I can overlook it. read more

I used to be a very happy and frequent customer of Holy Schnitzel. Unfortunately, I had one bad experience and after confronting both the owner and the manager, neither were concerned for the satisfaction of the customer and truly went against the most well known and respected rule of the customer is always right. I will NEVER step foot in their store, nor will I EVER give another penny to their business, nor will I eat the smallest crumb of food from this disgusting and horribly run establishment again! -Very disappointed customer read more

For the food I just had from here, it doesn't even deserve 1 star. This is the first time I've eaten from here. Uber eats rated it 4.6 overall and the menu sounded good so I went for it. I ordered the tony special sandwich and a side of the mix of 3 types of fries. The fries were the better of the 2 but that isn't saying much because they were awful. The fries were mushy, soggy and just didn't taste good at all. The sandwich is another story. The sandwich was wrapped in 2 sheets of cooking paper, both of which were so soaked from the sandwich that the paper ripped as soon as I tried to pick up the sandwich. The sandwich itself was unbelievably soggy, I could barely pick up the sandwich but that was mainly because the bread wrap wasn't wrapped at all so as soon as I started to pick up the sandwich it completely fell apart. I still attempted to eat it because I was starving. The onions and peppers were incredibly mushy and the chicken was awful. It's difficult to cook someone as simple as chicken, onions and peppers bad but this was beyond disappointing. Never eating from here again. read more

Great food! Best Kosher restaurant to ever happen to Staten Island. If you like spicy their "Tony Special" is one of a kind and if you want something without heat and delicious try their "Big Sister" not spicy.. My kids love their popcorn chicken and sliders. I also use them to cater my fundraisers. Which many participants are not kosher and they all love and look forward to the large selection of unique sandwiches. read more

3rd time visiting this amazing restaurant and 2nd time since the quarantine started. They're food is the highest quality and their service is prompt and friendly. The Buffalo Bacon sandwich is a superior sandwich and I LOVE it! Will return! read more

Holy schnitzel!! What a great place!! Great decor very clean.. When walking in you have a great young lady who greets you with a smile!! She was so sweet and helpful. She explains everything and made some great suggestions.. I went with the holy schnitzel hero its thin chicken breast fried in a breading with lettuce tomato and fried onions on a baguette. I also ordered hummus and falafel platter. She told me everything was made in house. It took a while but everything is made to order. Well when i got home it was worth the wait, the food was so good the schnitzel was still crisp the falafel was moist an the hummus comes with pita and it was hot it went so well with it. So glad i stop there for lunch. read more

I originally ate here and left a review 3 years ago. It was a pretty bad review and we'll deserved imo. I had honestly sworn the place off and didn't intend to return, but today I was with my mother and we were looking for something to eat. We went to the new place, "Mustard", but unfortunately they have no seating for elderly, or handicapped, so we left. After eliminating a couple of other places, I reluctantly agreed to go back to Holy Schnitzel... Wow! The place looked great compared to last time we were there. Clean walls, no dust piled up, thoughtful lighting, front of house not stacked up with boxes/storage, and almost all the employees were wearing branded t-shirts. It was amazing how much better it was. I ordered a hero called "the champ" and it was truly delicious. My mother had shawarma and was very pleased. Ironically, the sweet potato fries that we liked a lot last time were not great this time. Well prepared, but no flavor. The above said, kudos to management and the team working there. Not only will I no longer avoid HS, but I look forward to returning! read more

Great food Lots of choices on the menu Open 7 days a week No table service Free delivery Will return Highly recommend !! read more

I love the place, been going here literally since the first day they opened....but I was disappointed how now the wings have changed over into winglets, which have barely ANY meat on them...its 95% bone, I hope they change back to the quality they once had read more

Hi! My extended family's neighbor is the person who actually told me about Holy Schnitzel a couple of days ago... and wow, what good fortune i had in listening to joyce Wald's recommendation to this eatery restaurant!... my ninang's family loved the various sandwiches, Jerusalem salad hot beef frank sandwich and pastrami sandwich that we purchased. Will definitely eat here again ! read more

Really good food. Love ordering from here. I ate here once and the ambiance is weird. But ordering, no problem!

I want to compliment the food ,staff and service at this establishment . The food is always good and prepared especially for your liking. The staff is very friendly and professional. Strongly recommend this great neighborhood restaurant. read more

Although I understand that today is Mother's Day, you can't tell me that the restaurant couldn't expect the extra business and work accordingly. We ordered food for 8 people and waited 2 hours for the food to be delivered AND half of the items were either cold or wrong or both. They should be able to do better than this, even on a holiday. read more

I'll give this place a solid 5. Staff is super nice, food is good, bigger portions than expected. Sure, I can go to a deli and get a sandwich at half the price, but coming from LA where sandwiches are $10-15, the price is very reasonable for what you get and it's delicious! Chicken is good and there are plenty of toppings and sauces to choose from, I love the options and variety! I would definitely come back for another schnitzel sandwich if I'm back in town and I wish they'd expand to LA! read more

I couldn't eat the food - it was so bad - no flavor at all - I had bought the falafel and I bought the Cali panini - which by the way is not even a panini - it's a regular hero roll with grill marks -_- I legit wish I can get a refund the food is literally going in the trash! Never again - just stay away read more

I ordered a healthy salad delight with chicken. This salad costs $17. You would think that paying this much for a salad you would get a fresh salad. However this was not the case... I was horrified when I opened my salad to find the avocado was black. How do you charge $17 for a salad and put rotten ingredients in it??!! I was in disbelief. I was on the way to pick up my two children from school so I could not turn around and go back to the store, so I called in instead. Their reaction was even worse than finding black avocado in your expensive salad. The boy who picked up tried his best, however it was the manager/owner who shocked me the most. His solution ? " give me your address and we will send you fresh avocado." What?! He wanted me to pick out the disgusting avocado and wipe off the lettuce and chicken that was mixed and smashed up with the spoiled avocado? I was almost speechless. He had a temper and was yelling at me that I was making him lose money because I wasn't bringing the salad back. I explained I had no time. He continued saying that he could of sold it to someone else and that he is losing money if he refunded my money. That too me is a indicator that this place doesn't care about costumer satisfaction or health. Long story short: I'm horrified and still hungry because I could not eat this salad and will NEVER be eating there again. Too bad it's one of the few kosher spots in Staten Island. Oh well, they will never get my money again. read more

Holy Schnitzel - I should not have this kind of avocado in my $17 salad !!! - Kosher Near Me - Staten Island, New York

Ordered Cornflake chicken fingers, french fries, sweet potato fries, falafel plater, fire salad & burger to go. Everything was delicious service was fast and they were very generous with the sauces. I was surprised that everything was still crispy after a long 45 minute drive home. read more

First time ordering from this restaurant. Asked for 2 sandwiches, both with lettuce tomatoes and onion. One came with it, the other came with just bread and chicken. Bad first experience. They probably need to slow down, maybe moving to fast.. losing the opportunity for repeat customers. read more

This has been the hot spot for me and my co workers to get lunch during the pandemic. They have the best chicken sandwiches, and their sides and starters are so good as well. They deliver pretty fast and their portions are HUGE!! I often find myself only eating half of a sandwich and saving the rest for later. I got their fries and onion rings before and both can easily be split between two people. I never had a meal from here and left hungry. The only downside is that they do mess up orders sometimes. I will say when they have messed up and gave me something else I was still happy because whatever they gave me was also delicious. Either way this place is great to try out especially if your looking for different restaurants to order from while at home or at work. read more
