&#8220;What&#8217;s for Dinner?&#8221;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>In Kew Gardens Hills, one of Queens&#8217; great kosher neighborhoods, Holy Schnitzel has become the default answer to a universal question. Hand-breaded cutlets, burgers stacked without restraint and a wall of house-made sauces make it the rare fast-casual spot that pleases picky kids, hungry teenagers and nostalgic parents in a single order.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Concept\"><\/span>The Concept<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>What started as a New York schnitzel shop grew into a kosher franchise with locations across three states \u2014 and a simple house rule that never changed: every schnitzel is breaded by hand when ordered and fried to golden crispness, never held under a lamp. More than twenty-five sauces, all made in-house, let every family member customize without negotiation.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"On_the_Menu\"><\/span>On the Menu<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The Kung Fu Schnitzel \u2014 sesame-panko chicken in a baguette \u2014 leads the hit parade, trailed by the Shwanitzel wrap, an unapologetic union of shawarma, schnitzel and fries. The Tony Special layers marinated grilled chicken with garlic, jalape\u00f1o and spicy mayos, while the Double Decker burger and the pastrami-topped burger handle the beef side of the family. Fries and salads round out the tray.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Space\"><\/span>The Space<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Bright, casual and built for speed: order at the counter, grab a table or take the bag home. It is the kind of room where soccer teams debrief and Sunday errands end \u2014 comfortable, unfancy, always moving.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Who_Its_For\"><\/span>Who It&#8217;s For<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Kosher-keeping families who want weeknight dinner solved, groups with wildly different tastes, and anyone who believes comfort food should come with a crunch.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Good_to_Know\"><\/span>Good to Know<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><strong>Is everything kosher?<\/strong> Yes \u2014 fully kosher-supervised, all-meat menu; observant diners can order freely.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What are the Shabbat hours?<\/strong> Closed from Friday afternoon through Saturday sundown, reopening for the post-Shabbat rush.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What should first-timers try?<\/strong> A classic schnitzel baguette with two or three different sauces \u2014 then branch out to the Shwanitzel.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Is it good for feeding a crowd?<\/strong> Very \u2014 family platters and catering-scale orders are routine here.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Can kids find something plain?<\/strong> Easily: plain schnitzel, fries and mild sauces keep young diners happy.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Opening_hours\"><\/span>Opening hours<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\">\n<table class=\"has-fixed-layout\">\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Day<\/th>\n<th>Hours<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Monday<\/td>\n<td>11:00\u201323:00<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Tuesday<\/td>\n<td>11:00\u201323:00<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Wednesday<\/td>\n<td>11:00\u201323:00<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Thursday<\/td>\n<td>11:00\u201300:00<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Friday<\/td>\n<td>11:00\u201315:00<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Saturday<\/td>\n<td>21:00\u201301:00<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Sunday<\/td>\n<td>11:00\u201323:00<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<section id=\"entity-gallery\" class=\"padrino-entity-gallery\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Photos\"><\/span>Photos<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.queenska.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/60\/2026\/06\/holy-schnitzel-queens-queens-1.jpg\" alt=\"Holy Schnitzel (Queens)\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.queenska.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/60\/2026\/06\/holy-schnitzel-queens-queens-2.jpg\" alt=\"Holy Schnitzel (Queens)\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.queenska.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/60\/2026\/06\/holy-schnitzel-queens-queens-3.jpg\" alt=\"Holy Schnitzel (Queens)\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.queenska.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/60\/2026\/06\/holy-schnitzel-queens-queens-4.jpg\" alt=\"Holy Schnitzel (Queens)\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.queenska.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/60\/2026\/06\/holy-schnitzel-queens-queens-5.jpg\" alt=\"Holy Schnitzel (Queens)\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.queenska.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/60\/2026\/06\/holy-schnitzel-queens-queens-6.jpg\" alt=\"Holy Schnitzel (Queens)\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n<details>\n<summary>Show 2 more photos<\/summary>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.queenska.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/60\/2026\/06\/holy-schnitzel-queens-queens-7.jpg\" alt=\"Holy Schnitzel (Queens)\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.queenska.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/60\/2026\/06\/holy-schnitzel-queens-queens-8.jpg\" alt=\"Holy Schnitzel (Queens)\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n<\/details>\n<\/section>\n<div id=\"comments\" class=\"comments-area wp-block-group\">\n<h2 class=\"comments-title\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Visitor_reviews\"><\/span>Visitor reviews<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<ol class=\"comment-list\">\n<li id=\"comment-padrino-0\" class=\"comment odd alt thread-odd thread-alt depth-1\">\n<article id=\"div-comment-padrino-0\" class=\"comment-body\">\n<footer class=\"comment-meta\">\n<div class=\"comment-author vcard\">\n<b class=\"fn\"><span>Mayer Perlstein<\/span><\/b>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"comment-metadata\">\n5 June 2026<br \/>\n \u00b7 <span>\u2605 10.0\/10<\/span>\n<\/div>\n<\/footer>\n<div class=\"comment-content\">\n<p>Joshua was super cool, working with many customers at once, remembering every name and different personal requests.
