NEW YORK—Reserve Cut, a contemporary Kosher restaurant opened in the financial district on Oct. 10.

Albert Allaham, owner of butcher shop The Prime Cut in Brooklyn, comes from a family of butchers dating back 200 years to Damascus, Syria. 

“We hope the Reserve Cut experience will redefine the kosher dining landscape, and encourage non-kosher guests to try our superior cuisine,” Allaham said in a release.

Reserve Cut’s menu features USDA prime steak sourced from The Prime Cut, and dry aged in the restaurant’s private aging room. Meats include selections such as grilled Wagyu Angus ribs and Colorado rack of lamb.

Executive Chef Hok Chin put together a menu that features French- and Asian-inspired dishes such as Glazed Veal Sweetbreads with Caramelized Fava Beans, Tokyo Turnips and Black Truffles, Pistachio Crusted Duck Confit with Japanese Eggplant and Hon Shimeji Mushrooms.

Drawing on the Eastern influence of The Setai, the restaurant features Asian-inspired décor in the 200-seat main dining room, sushi bar, wine room, and two additional spaces available for private events.

Reserve Cut’s beverage program serves kosher wines as well as classic and modern cocktails.
