The hand-breaded schnitzel franchise is taking over the Grill House space at 120 Raritan Avenue, and the owner expects the transition to take about four weeks before the kosher chain opens its doors. With the brand\u2019s Boca Raton location also opening next month, Highland Park is set to become the twelfth Holy Schnitzel in the franchise.<\/p>\n<p>A Familiar Kosher Address Gets Its Third Act<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Kosher diners in Highland Park have known this storefront for nearly two decades.

Holy Schnitzel will now be the third kosher restaurant to call 120 Raritan Avenue home, taking over from Grill House after a run of about a year and a half.<\/p>\n<p>What to Expect on the Menu<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Founded in 2015 by siblings Sivan and Ofeer Benaltaba, Holy Schnitzel grew from a single Staten Island storefront into the largest franchised kosher restaurant brand in the country. The menu centers on chicken schnitzel that is pounded thin, seasoned, and hand-breaded to order, then served in sandwiches, wraps, platters, and salads. Diners can pick from more than two dozen house-made sauces, from the signature Holy Sauce to smoky garlic aioli and chimichurri.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Expect the brand\u2019s core lineup in Highland Park: the Holy Toasty, the Tony Special, and the Mr. Brooklyn burger, alongside loaded fries, popcorn chicken, chicken fingers, and BBQ Pulled Brisket Tacos.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/holy-schnitzel-kosher-Highland-Park-New-Jersey-1.jpg\" alt=\"Holy Schnitzel salad, wrap, baguette sandwich, and burger\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Every Holy Schnitzel Location<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Highland Park joins a footprint that stretches across New York, New Jersey, and Florida.
