Howard St. (2). 11 of the 22 listings on this page have a phone number, 16 a website and 22 are on the map.

How hechshers are checked

Shown: places whose hechsher is on the cRc recommended list (checked 2026-11-10) and was confirmed on the agency’s own list in the last 7 days; older checks hide by themselves. Other hechshers are behind the checkbox, marked “ask your rav” (the cRc says a missing agency is not necessarily substandard). Information, not a kashrus ruling.

Common questions

How does JRA decide which restaurants show as kosher?

By default JRA shows food places whose hechsher is on the cRc list of recommended agencies and was confirmed on that agency's own list in the last 7 days; a listing hides itself when that check gets older. Places under other hechshers are behind a checkbox, marked "ask your rav".

About this section’s coverage

Exact-branch certification, expiry and permitted directory reuse are required. KCL/RCBC pages are reference links; no bulk licence or authorized feed is recorded. Food stays behind the existing kashrus gate.
