Salt + Charcoal
A Japanese steakhouse in Williamsburg
Sashimi
Williamsburg in Brooklyn is filled with numerous shops and restaurants and has a very diverse selection to choose from. So it was pretty awesome to see a Japanese Steakhouse in Williamsburg.
The interior of the restaurant definitely gives the place a rustic steakhouse look with wooden floors and tables. There’s also outside seating as well for people that went to enjoy the warm weather.
Each dry-aged steak served at Salt + Charcoal is hand selected by Executive Chef Tadaaki Ishizaki, dry-aged for a minimum of 50 days, and grilled over organic wood charcoal on a custom-made grill designed by the chef himself. The grill is said to maximize the effect of charcoal’s unique infrared energy and char. I don't understand this but if you’re into grill porn, you’ll have a hoot.
Steak aging
One of the things I enjoyed most about this steak was the accompaniments. I LOVE condiments and these were amazing. Don’t get me wrong, it tasted fantastic on it’s own with the black pepper, but I really loved the herb butter, the soy lemon onion sauce, and the wasabi cream sauce too. Wasabi on anything is heaven for me.
Cheese Fries and sushi on same menu!
Wagyu Sashimi
Fried Oyster was the size of my hand
