Kosher describes food that meets Jewish dietary law (kashrut): no pork or shellfish, meat only from ritually slaughtered permitted animals, and a strict separation of meat and dairy — never in the same dish or meal. In practice, fully kosher eating requires certified kitchens; the certification mark (hechsher) is the actual guarantee.

What to order

  • At certified kosher restaurants — the whole menu, by definition
  • Fish with fins and scales — salmon, tuna, cod are kosher species (shellfish is not)
  • Vegetarian and vegan dishes — sidestep the meat-slaughter question entirely
  • Meat dishes without dairy sauces — no cheeseburgers, no cream sauces on meat
  • Pareve desserts — fruit, sorbets, and dairy-free pastries after a meat meal

Frequently asked questions

Why can’t meat and dairy be eaten together?

Kashrut derives a full separation from the biblical rule against cooking a kid in its mother’s milk: separate dishes, utensils, and a waiting period between meat and dairy meals in observant practice.

Is fish kosher?

Fish with both fins and scales — salmon, tuna, cod, herring — are kosher and count as pareve (neither meat nor dairy). Shellfish, eel, and catfish are not kosher.

Can I eat kosher at a non-certified restaurant?

Strict observance requires certification, full stop. Diners who keep a lighter standard often choose fish or vegetarian dishes; SeEat’s per-dish descriptions and pork/shellfish flags make those choices visible at a glance.
