About the best you can do is the following:

{
  "@context":
  {
     "schema": "http://schema.org/",
    "@base": “",
    "@vocab": "_:"
  },
    "@id": "#BrewEats",
    "@type": "schema:Restaurant",
    "schema:name": "Brew Eats",
    "databaseId": "23987520"
}

My implementation (http://rdf.greggkellogg.net/distiller?command=expand&format=jsonld&output_format=jsonld <http://rdf.greggkellogg.net/distiller?command=expand&format=jsonld&output_format=jsonld>), accepts “@base”: “#” (or “”), but the javascript version does not. To not loose databaseid, you need to set “@vocab”, but this must be an absolute IRI or  a BNode (for prefixing values), otherwise, the property is ignored. Getting “Breweats” out as a relative URI seems to work reasonably consistently across at least, as it is document relative.

Note that, without setting “@base”, a processor will use the document location for setting values of “@id” and other values which are evaluated as URIs.

Turtle, I believe, don’t impose the same requirement on properties being absolute IRIs, but JSON-LD may often be used to extract data from a document for which some JSON is ignored. A pending issue #333 [2] would provide some support for preserving unmapped JSON as a typed literal, and this should make it into the 1.1 CG work, but I don’t believe it would address this particular use case.

Is there some specific reason to want to use document-relative properties? With enough support, we could consider it for 1.1, but I’m not clear on a real-world use case. Relative values of “@id” seem to be reasonably well supported, even if the result is considered invalid.
