A kosher restaurant is an establishment that serves food that complies with Jewish dietary laws. These businesses, which also include diners, cafés, pizzerias, fast food, and cafeterias, and are frequently in listings together with kosher bakeries, butchers, caterers, and other similar places, differ from kosher-style businesses in that they operate under rabbinical supervision, which requires that the laws of kashrut, as well as certain other Jewish laws, must be observed.
Such locations must be closed during Shabbat and Jewish holidays if under Jewish ownership. Also, dairy and meat must be kept separate. In most cases, a kosher establishment is limited to serving exclusively either dairy or meat foods.
Some types of businesses, such as delicatessens, frequently serve both, kept in separate areas. Vegetarian kosher restaurants serve only vegetarian fare.
