"Traif is the Yiddish word for foods traditionally banned under Jewish law: pork, shrimp, etc. This place got some attention for its name when it first opened, but concept aside, the food here is very good. They cook everything behind the bar, and we especially like the the General Tso’s cauliflower and the tuna tartare served on japanese eggplant tempura. This Williamsburg spot never seems to get as busy as it should, which is something you should definitely take advantage of." - bryan kim, hillary reinsberg
