What Kosher-Style Means, and How It Differs From Certified Kosher

Kosher-style describes the style of a menu, not a kosher status. Our team cooks the dishes without a certificate. Certified kosher means a rabbi or a certifying agency supervises the food from ingredients to table. The quote lists every dish and states that the dishes are kosher-style and not certified.
