The 48 best foods to try in Jerusalem

The place is packed and had a wonderful atmosphere. The hostess was kind and even accommodated us about 15 minutes earlier than our reservation. Food: Starters were great, really both delecisous and well presented. So highly recommend them as all we ordered was good. Sadly this doesn't follow through to the main courses which were a mess. Fish was extremely salted to a point that all you could taste was saltiness and not the fish. Spicy pasta was oily and greasy. The flavour was heavily overshadowed by oil taste. The brisket was the only main course which was nice. And probably worth a taste. Drinks: Cocktails and the G&T were simply bad. Even when asking to use higher tier of Gin the end result was not great. Service: The service was bad not because the waiters weren't helpful, but simply due to the fact there were like only 3 of them for a whole 2 floors. Which causes long wait times, missed orders and various mischiefs. To their credits the waiters tried their best. I guess we just expected a bit better from what supposed to be the best food in town.

Not only couldn’t hear each other talk we couldn’t hear ourselves think When we asked waitress to lower music we were told that the noise is part of the concept. So I might just be a grumpy old man but we were there with our 27 year old son and 25 year old partner. They suffered just as much as myself and my partner. I just don’t get the concept and that’s such a pity because the food was really good

We were there 6 years ago. Extremely great athmosphere, service, music, food, everything. And now we visited it again, end of shift. Awuful experience, cold food, everyone is busy to handover duties to next shift. It could be amazing experience to involve us, but no, silence and waiting us to go out, not to be a problem. Thanks Asaf, good shift. If I am wrong, please let me know.

We came with great expectations and ordered a table about a month ago. Overall the service was professional and welcoming, the atmosphere was live and happy, the products were fresh and wel taken care of, BUT not very tasty and fulfilling for the sole and stomach. Also very noisy to the point that it was impossible to say a word without shouting it for several times. We set at the upper floor and the tables were almost one above each other so it was uncomfortable. we almost shared our table with the one behind us. I expected more than this.

We had the salad with herbs, grapes, croutons and labneh followed by the mackerel, the chicken liver on mashed potatoes and finally the honey cake with toffee and ice cream. Food was very good but the best part was the service. We sat at the bar and were welcomed by two super friendly bartenders who gave us free shots (they were drinking with us too). They also played my song on request. Fun atmosphere.

As someone who grew up in Jerusalem and lived there half her life, it's amazing to me to see how my beloved shuk (farmers market) advanced and elevated in the area of fine dining. Machneyuda is a wonderful gourmet restaurant in the shuk. The food is fantastic. The service is quick and friendly. They have their own delicious beer. The prices are very high, as expected, but they're worth it. Great atmosphere, music, and colorful decor. The seabass was yummy, just too plain for my partner (in comparison to his bold dish of interior parts), and the baked starters were really good. It's a very "happening" place, so if you want to sit and talk - go somewhere else. Overall, a great experience!

Machneyuda is great! It’s noisy, informal, slightly chaotic, and absolutely a good time. For me it hits exactly the right point on the food spectrum between refined and delicious - not fussy, not too focused on presentation, just very tasty. The tasting menu is good value at 295 shekels: not cheap, but worth it (and seriously generous). My best eating experience in Israel.

I don’t even know what happened. We used to come to the rooftop a lot and last night we went with a big group since I recommended the place. I ordered the shashimi salmon/ and got an avocado shashimi in a bath of teriyaki sauce. It was very heavy . Totally not what I was expecting. The duck for main was actually very good but then when we ordered the malabi for dessert it was like eating butter instead of a light dessert that’s malabi is supposed to be. We had a bite of the lemon cake, you expect it to be lemony sour/ it was more like a puffy shortcake with some sweet lemon on it. What happened to the chef? Bring him back!!! Other then that, I found the service to be pleasant and quick and great. And the view is spectacular. I will come back again, but only because if past expiriance not because of this last time. Cocktails were also very good.

While it is advertised as a “chef” restaurant unfortunately it does not present as such. The flavor profile of the food was below average and the presentation at times was disappointingly messy and without any refinement. Much better to go to a typical Israeli grill restaurant and eat good food at 1/5 th the price. This would not be true if it were a true chef restaurant. We spent 980 NIS for two people, which would have been fine if the food was up to par. Maybe nice for drinks due to the amazing view.

Well, I start with the end. When asking our waitress for the bill I presented her my cellphone for payment, Told her to add 15% for the tip. She then asked me without any hesitation if I could pay the tip in cash…. Well, for a five star hotel roof top restaurant, maybe they have a black money cash box only for the waitresses? The saviche was fine and well presented but the salad wasn’t tasty at all, just a large bowl of salad and vegetables plus a few pieces of fruits. The dressing was out of a bottle taste like… Ordered a strong cappuccino, got a vanilla tasting coffee instead from an automatic coffee dispenser, like you have in the airports… Expensive, not tasty food, terrible service. Ah the view! Yes the view is amazing :)

Extremely disappointing experience. We are guests of the hotel and had a reservation at the Rooftop Restaurant. We requested a specific table, but were seated somewhere cramped while a group without a reservation got a much better spot. When we asked to move, the staff were visibly annoyed and made us feel uncomfortable. Service was very poor — no smiles, no patience, no recommendations, and everything took ages. We had to ask four times just to get the check, and at the end they even asked if we could pay in cash, which was shocking for a place of this level. The food was surprisingly excellent, and the view is beautiful, but the atmosphere is very different (and not worth it) when the terrace is closed in “winter” (October). Sadly, even as hotel guests, we won’t be coming back.

The restaurant is located on the 8th floor in the luxury mamila hotel. When I made the reservation I asked to sit by the window, and the view of Jerusalem was breathtaking. The food was good, worth the price. I was a bit disappointed when no waiter came to take our order and we had to call someone and it took too long for the main course to arrive after the appetizers. AND THE MOST unprofessional thing was that we were not able to leave a tip with the credit card. It was only cash OR "bit" which is like "venmo" or a direct deposit to the waiters bank account, for me it felt a bit sketchy and I did not expect this from a place like this!

This was so bad it was insulting. The roast beef sandwich was a HUGE piece of dry and untoasted challah with two thin - and I mean thin - strips of roast beef in them. I respectfully tried to tell the waitress that I do not blame her but it was not good as it was slapped together untoasted bread with very little meat. The sandwich was 90 something shekels… The waitress instead of taking constructive criticism fought with me and said the bread is not toasted because it’s Shabbat. I didn’t say this to her but IF ITS SHABBAT YOU WOULDNT BE OPEN TAKING MONEY. So hypocritical and frankly untrue to say bread was untoasted because of Shabbat. She then came back and rudely slapped a small plate on the table with a small heap of cold roast beef, assuming because I said there was almost no meat in there. The meal was so expensive for nothing. My wife and I went out for another meal directly after at an Arab establishment who gave proper service and real food. I am Jewish and the service from Israelis is usually sub par - but this was on another level of bad. Incredibly disappointing and they should truly be ashamed. The view was good but could not save this for us.

The Rooftop restaurant on top of the Mamilla Hotel in Jerusalem offers some fantastic views over the New and Old Cities but, with the exception of some delicious roasted bone marrow I found the food to be unexceptional and the service very poor indeed. Having waited a very long time to be given a menu or offered a drink we hijacked a passing young waiter who did his very best to help and give us what we needed, despite being very busy and working in a completely different section of the restaurant. Without his initiative we would certainly have made a complaint or indeed left. Here are a few photographs of some of the food at Rooftop and a few other places in Jerusalem.

Great restaurant and highly recommended. The place is a beautiful alleyway where artists have their studios. Eat outside if you can The food was fantastic. There is a spicy sauces appetizer with is not too hot so very tolerable and delicious. The airee was so nice, she brought us another one and also gave us a roasted cauliflower with a terrific tahini sauce on the house We ordered a short rib and lamb and both were wonderful. They came with vegetables that were very tasty. Possibly the best place we have eaten at in Jerusalem They have a full bar

The meal, service, drinks (Turkish coffee, Jerusalem Mule and tea) were all incredible. Eating on the patio in the cool evening made for a beautiful setting. Our favorite dishes were the roasted cauliflower, bread with dipping sauces, candied pear dessert. We also got the eggplant appetizer and the lamb. Servers were kind, helpful and funny. Lovely date night or group outing.

The waiter kept on bringing out free delicious food. The rice dishes, vegetarian and chicken were cooked to perfection

One of the best restaurants I know. The food is delicious, and the Jerusalem atmosphere is great. I recommend the tasting menus all of the dishes were amazing. The chef goes around and talks with diners witch upgrades the experience.

Everything here was delightful. My significant other has been wanting to come here for a few years, and we finally did. We had the Queen of Sheba tasting menu, which I would highly recommend. I’m a bit less adventurous than he is, so some of my plates my boyfriend ate, but nonetheless, the meal was amazing, and the staff was fantastic.

Amazing We took the taste deal, you get a bit of everything. Each meal is absolutely amazing by its taste. The service is good as well. We will definitely return to this place. Highly recommended if you are looking for a good restaurant in Jerusalem.

A very unique restaurant in Jerusalem that serves biblical-inspired dishes! Lots of great options on the menu so you really can't go wrong.

Amazing place. No idea why it hasn’t 5.0 stars 🤩 great hummus, very smooth. Amazing Falafel. The Shakshuka is okay, not the best, but still good. Everything is fresh and plenty and you get your money’s worth.

Fantastic food. There’s really nothing else I can say to describe it. Ordered delivery a bit late, so some items weren’t available, totally my fault. Meat hummus was FANTASTIC and a gracious helping. Chicken and fries also amazing. Falafels have a slickness my son didn’t like but he ate the chicken and I ate the falafel, problem solved. Recommend highly, making it a regular spot.

As my first restaurant in Jerusalem I was very impressed. The falafel was quite good, hummus was good and prices weren’t too expensive. One thing I was confused about was the whole ordering and sitting down thing. So how it works is you order first then sit wherever you want and they bring the food out to you.

Got to this location by foot because of a job we were doing nearby. Went here to get falafel and were surprised by the nice-boutique feeling of this small establishment. Got a falafel sandwich for each of us. 22nis each, on the high side price wise. The sandwich was great. Ben-sira, you got great balls! They had a crunchy exterior and a moist interior. I’m not sure if they do, but they tasted like they had fried onions in them. Hummus and tahini were phenomenal. And were made on location (note if you’re pregnant…). The pitta was soft and fresh. The veggies were in nice big chunks and had a fresh crunch to them. All in all, I liked this place. And I thank The Lord that I found this hole-in-the-wall. This location doesn’t seem to have Glatt meat. No close parking to this restaurant. —kosher rabbinate Jerusalem —

Best hummus I had in my Jordan/Israel trip! I ordered cauliflower and it tastes so good. The fried cauliflower adds more flavours into the plain hummus, it is just a great combination. (Also a vegetarian choice!) If I had more time I would’ve tried all the favours here! Heard the beef one is also good. There is just too much good food in Jerusalem.

Not sure how this place gets good ratings... It was pretty busy, tables were dirty, we were all cramped on each other when ordering at the register with people speaking over each other and the waitor squeezing in to get orders. My order was messed up 3 times because the girl just didn't listen. The hummus didn't taste good. I guess the only good thing was that my partner liked his food, which he describes as fast food. 75₪ for two hummus, one falafel order and a tea ... Seems way too expensive.

Stopped here for quick lunch before visiting Time Elevator which is 2 min walk away. This place is quick and tasty. Very affordable prices. Super friendly staff. Recommended.

It is really cool place located at the first train station. It has not a big one but nice menu, very friendly staff and usually great dishes. This time at the bar the guys were a bit forgetting orders, had to be reminded several times for water, drinks and wine, but overall was a good experience and definitely will be back.

Good food, even better than what expected from a restaurant in a heavily commercialized area. There were a couple of service mistakes but not too bad, and were taken care and corrected quite fast. The Sabich was awesome, so was the artichoke risotto. The desserts were nice, but could be slightly better...

A non-kosher restaurant located in the renovated Ottoman-era First Train Station. The seasonally changing chef menu is still among the best in town, specializing in seafood and fresh fish, chef’s dishes from Italy and France Mediterranean fusion and a selection of high quality wines. Every dish we ordered was excellent! Standouts to look for include a heavenly gnocchi with porcini and chestnuts; pasta and calamari in curry and apple sauce; seaweed risotto with calamari and split blue crab. In winter, the palate-warming chestnut soup appetizer reappears on the menu and must be tried. After 10pm, when Adom becomes more of a wine bar and pick-up spot, a menu of tapas-style dishes and half-portions becomes available. The bar is excellent, as are desserts.

We had a large group come here for lunch. While the tables were a little small the food was great and the staff did a lot to accommodate all the guests requests. The restaurant is located in the middle of the old trail station with lots of interesting thing to look at.

Beautiful restaurant, great service. Little pricey though. Chicken Cordon Bleu was little mild but had good crispiness. Ceviche was delicious and refreshing. Pasta was little chewy.

The Sabich here is really fantastic. One of my must eat restaurants in Jerusalem. We also had the Osso Bucco (yum!) the mussels and the Pavlova.

I had a great dinner at Adom. The staff was very accommodating. Good vibe and excellent food. Met with thr owner who came to say hi and was very nice. Loved the design and atmosphere. Recommend it for dinners.

Chakra delivers an exceptional dining experience in Jerusalem. The food is fresh, creative, and beautifully presented, with flavors that truly stand out. Service is attentive and professional, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Prices are high but absolutely worth it for the quality and overall experience.

I love this place for years, when they were on the corner of Shlomzion aMalka, and now. interesting and delicious menu , great atmosphere, good service. A pretty expensive, however it's almost ideal for the celebration. I love to sit on the bar, to see the open kitchen.

A super restaurant in the capital of Israel, Jerusalem. Everything was non less than excellent: food, wine, service and atmosphere. Tel Aviv's restaurants may learn from this restaurant. Very recommended

We had a nice time at this restaurant. The waiter was nice and knowledgeable. The food was good. Besides the fish and gnocchi (which was incredible) everything else tasted great but nothing exceptional, pretty ordinary for high-end restaurants.

Amazing food! Each dish was delicious! We had the bread, spicy tuna toast, cauliflower agnolotti, and the crispy sea bass with Thai sauces. (July 2023). Great service

We sat on the Bar - Amit and Paz were the Bartenders and we had a great time ! Food is delicious and fresh (A bit pricey in my opinion..). We enjoyed watching the guys working at the kitchen in front of us - very smooth and professional work. Great Music and Atmosphere

Visited in the last Monday evening and found a full house there. The appetisers were even better than the main course. Reasonable wine selection was offered. Friendly and smiley staff provided good customer service. I generally enjoyed the night there.

The pasta was perfectly cooked, seasoned and plated. I recommend the pappardelle with mushrooms and the mushroom ravioli. The cheese platter was delicious, but I think it could’ve used more variation in flavor. Having live music was definitely a plus and the hostess and service staff were friendly and outgoing. Will return soon.

My absolutely favorite place to dine in Jerusalem. The food is always delicious. Only the freshest ingredients. Be sure to order dessert .Service is impeccable! Fabulous music every night.

I was here with a group of friends for volunteering and for dinner we visited this place. Great service, people are so humble and welcoming. The food is really tasty as Italian food in Jerusalem, you would wonder but it was a classic one. We ordered red and white wine and delicious food raviolis, a bunch of salads, vegetables, cheese pizza and desserts. It's located in an excellent location and has very beautiful interiors. I will definitely recommend this place.

We were and really enjoyed it! The food was really delicious and arrived quickly. The atmosphere was amazing with live music playing in the background. Overall, the hosts were really kind and charming to us. I really recommend it!

Amazing food. Great service. Live music. Beautiful setting. Hard to ask for anything more. We were accompanying a family looking for a venue for a bar mitzvah party dinner and I was blown away by this gem of a restaurant. Keep in mind it can get crowded. Make reservations. We ate relatively early on a Monday, school night, evening and the place was full by the time we left . Dairy restaurant, pizzas, salads, pastas . Ask for the chef special of the day.

Another wondefull evening here. Outside dining under the stars with such talented musicians for live entertainment. Service was so attentive and the food was great. Thank you Rivka our server for making our evening so special with her great suggestions. Was Brazilian jazz night. Like a dream. Thanks for a memorable evening. 🥰❤️🇮🇱

There was a singer outside for חנוכה. He was singing some popular Israeli songs. The food was terrific 🤩. And our waiter was accommodating; he made sure my younger siblings got their food first, and he always ensured everything came on time—an absolute delight.

Azura has a cozy atmosphere and the food tastes homemade. Most of the food is already cooked so the wait time is minimal. The food is very traditional and authentic to the Iraqi Kurdish cuisine. The Azura was tasty and had a combination of flavors. It consisted of an eggplant, ground meat, pine nuts and cinnamon. The portion was a bit small and I was not a huge fan of the cinnamon but overall it had a great texture. The Kubbe in the soup was delicious and probably my favorite thing I tasted. Keep in mind that this soup is a bit sour since it is made with lemon. For those that like something spicy ask for their schug, it’s great! Also the staff is very friendly and makes you feel welcome. (They also have English menus)

Why 5 stars? The Food. Great taste, good portions, relaxed family atmosphere. Everything about this place is right. Family run, super busy, classic dishes. Price is on the high side, but the value is there. Shimon Peres, former President and Prime minister of Israel used to hang around this place. Not a bad recommendation!

A tasty good old restaurant. Their stovetops are full of pots brimming with hearty delights like Kibbe and other stews The service is good, the prices are reasonable and the food comes VERY fast due to the fact it's mostly long cooked and prepared. I had beetroot kibbeh (קובה) soup which was good but a bit too soft and too oily for my tasting.

This place has truly amazing food. However, be prepared to either get there early or wait for a long time as it gets very busy during peak times. We went on Friday lunch and had to wait for at least 30 mins to get a seat. We went again on Wednesday before lunch and got a seat without waiting. We had the beet soup, bean soup, beef head, moussaka, rice with beans and hummus - all of which were amazing together with warm bread.

*AZURA RESTAURANTE * IS THE BEST RESTAURANTE IN JERUSALEM. Inside Machaneh Yehudah Market, * JAFFA STREET* I really recommend this Restaurant Where you eat like a local. Good Prices The food is homemade Traditional Typical Dishes Family RESTAURANTE The service is so good and all the staff is so Friendly. 💛💛💛💯💯 🥩🍗🍖🥦🥬🥒🫑🍄🥯

in the heart of the Jerusalem souk a Meetic restaurant , delicious and exceptional dishes simmered overnight over low heat on old kerosene stoves, the real taste of yesteryear, as our grandmothers did, recommended visit to this restaurant. The service is very fast and the waiters friendly.

Love this place for a great Friday lunch. I can honestly say I’ve never had a dish I didn’t love ❤️. My favorites are the Kubeh Soup, sofrito, and hummus. Excellent home cooked food, so good every single time. Usually very busy.

We had Tala Comb and Chicken Schnitzel Plate and it was good choice! Loved the hummus and falafel! People were nice and welcoming. The place is very close to Jaffa Gate and is easy to find.

Decent food with fair pricing. Fries and baklava were unexpected good.

Very close to the Jaffa gate, the small street is quiet. Food is very good, service is fast and polite! The toilette is clean and huge.

Best foul, hummus, falafel, chicken shawarma, and baklava of my life! Shawarma was crispy and well seasoned, falafel was fresh and soft in the middle, and hummus with roasted pine nuts with olive oil was a great balance for the saltier dishes. I was stuffed and wanted to try one baklava, ended up ordering two more! And they take credit card as a payment

We were directed here by our Sandemans tour guide as a local place with fast service and good food. She was not wrong! Firstly it was great to cool down in the AC and be able to use the toilet. We ordered 2 dishes and they were both delicious and not super expensive. Recommend!

Very good food and the staff is fantastic the day we went we got a lot of Sahlab because my wife and the girl love it. Then they run after us to give us some more to take away. Recommend Shakshuka and other dishes.

Lovely place right next to the wall just inside the Old City. Two levels in a relatively small space with wonderful service. Very busy with locals. Food is plentiful and varied local cuisine. A place where locals eat. Prices very reasonable. The Jaffa Gate is minutes away although this street is quiet and away from the bustling crowd.

The view from the roof is awesome. Coffee's alright, but the food and service? Not so much. I'd just check out the view and the roof. Skip the food and drinks.

A bit tricky to find, small island of peace, tranquility and traditional Austrian apple strudel in the Christian quarter of the Old City. The roof (pay with a 5NIS coin for access, or pay at reception) has a beautiful view of the Old City, but there’s no shade or seats up there, so it’s only a viewing platform. They also have a nicely decorated room for piano recitals.

A fantastic spot to recharge in the midst of the Old City of Jerusalem. It's great to enjoy a cold beer, Sachertorte, apple strudel, or other cakes and snacks with your coffee. The view from the rooftop is breathtaking! Have 5 nis coin for the rooftop's entry.

We have been here several times and had good memories and of course for christians the location is unique.However this time the service was a disaster. When checking in (After a long and eventful journey) we were told we had pay up front (This was not the case perviously) Then however it showed they could not get the bill correct. They tried to split it between me and my wife? then needed to transport it between her and me? After a long waiting time and several attempts from my side to make life easier for them we concluded we wanted to go to our room and would pay after they had solved the problem. Some time later they called and we went down to pay, but they could not get the creditcard machine to work correctly causing me to enter my pincode several times in hebrew, without any confirmation that it was canceled. So we did not know how many times we had payed. Then we had dinner and really wanted to have a coffee After dinner which they refused since the had already cleaned the coffee machine. Note it was 20:05 while the information said it was a Wiener kaffee and was opened until 22:00...

Little Austria in the heart of the old city of Jerusalem. Love the place, love the solemn garden, and, ofcurse, love the greet Maindrl coffee with a great Apfelstrudel l

I've been only at the Coffee shop. A great place to relax and a great view. I recommend to everyone who visits old JLM to try the Coffee shop.

We were in the Austrian hospice cafe a few times. Wonderful experience in the old city, historic and well preserved building, the food is delicious and Austrian dishes like goulash, apple strudel and etc are served. Recommend the cafe! Can’t vouch for the rooms as I haven’t stayed there as a guest

Must go! It’s the restaurant with the best hygiene we’ve experienced in Israel (and we are comparing this to some of the top high end restaurants in Tel Aviv). Order the Georgian “pizza”, which is a freshly baked bread with cheese/spinach/mushroom topped with an egg. The bread is fluffy and crisp AND it doesn’t get soggy in the bottom even with the fillings! Also try the salad. So so fresh with a delicious homemade dressing. Eat here!! (Expect a queue but they’re so popular with the locals)

You can only order something at a big tablet like mc Donald’s self service. But instead of cheap prices, the food costs the same as in a service restaurant. It takes round about 20min until the food is ready and your name or number is called. We had the egg in a bread with spinach and cheese inside. The taste was really good and there are sauces as side dish. It was good, but I wouldn’t come here again because of the high price (55 Scheckel for one piece)

Authentic Georgian food with Israeli twist. Just few meters from Mahane Yehuda open market. Ideal for quick bites, groups and tourists. Very tasty, quick and good service!! Expect to pay 35-40 NIS for a dish. Pretty big serves. Recommend!

Great food. Good Beer. Cool people. We came here for dinner. It was our first Georgian meal and it was a great experience. The service was super nice and the food was already done in a few minutes. Maybe it's possible in the future to save some plastics and serve the sauces in little glasses or bowls and replace the plastic forks with reusables - at least for the people who eat there. 💪

FIVE STARS must eat here. Georgian (the country lol) dough baked in a special oven, made fresh to order. We got the one with the Spinach and cheese and the fried egg on top. INSTRUCTIONS TO EAT - if it’s your 1st time here, follow the server’s direction on how to eat it. Not with a fork. Use your hands and rip the dough. crack the egg yolk and twirl it around. And we also got the fried one, mind blown! 🤯

Megruli with spinach was very nice. The other dish was interesting, but too heavy. Be prepared as they don’t have a menu in English. But one of the servers speaks English. However, might be difficult during busy hours.

Good food, line is crazy on a Friday though. Prepare to order, take a 30 minutes walk and come back to eat while standing outside in the street. Still, a fun experience that goes perfectly with a walk in the market.

If, like me, you stopped eating cheeseburgers at your Bar-Mitzvah, then let me tell you, the meat itself tastes WAY better than what I remember and the "cheese" makes it creamy like I'll never forget. And if somehow you've worked through all the burgers, the specials are Insane! Oh, and the beer selection is only topped by wait staff who bring such good vibes!

Fried foods were greasy and for the most part unseasoned. Chicken was dry. Salad tasteless and beyond oily. Extremely disappointed. Mostly American patrons who don't recognize good Israeli street food. To top it off Hechsher questionable.

1-The burgers are awful, the sauce had an unrecognisable taste, the meat had no flavour and the bun was mediocre. The side dish (sweet potato chips) arrived 20 minutes before the burger. They were greasy and smelled like they had been fried three times. 2-There were at least five waitresses, and none of them were competent. The service was very, very slow. 3-It was dirty, very dirty, both the outdoor tables and chairs and the indoor dining area. The toilets looked like a prison and were filthy...

Gourmet burgers and hot sandwiches — exceptionally tasty. Average bill is about 100 NIS per person. The dining area is quite small. Good for small company events. A waiting list is possible during peak hours.

The burger and fries were really the best i ever had. You could taste the freshness and homemade ingrediënts. Thanks to the chef! Great job!

Best burger in Israel!! High quality ingredients, prompt, friendly and efficient service. The bacon lamb is incredible. Good beer selection and if you have room for dessert, the apple pie rolls are amazing. It does get busy for obvious reasons but any wait is worth it.

What an ammmmmazing kosher menu. We had to try everything and almost did. The Philly cheese steak, the Ruben, the brisket, duck fries and more. They have a huge bar menu and so many different items. When you get to machane Yehuda spend the night, get there early and be ready to wait. There is always a line but I think well worth it.

We had a difficult experience ,my young child urgently needed the restroom and at first we were told it’s only for customers. With kids, compassion should come first. Jewish law teaches that kavod habriyot (human dignity) takes precedence, and no child should be put in that situation.

The owner (or whoever was the older person setting up the trays), is extremely rude. I already paid for the pizza, otherwise I would have left the place when he literally ripped a napkin I took out of my hands while shouting at me in the local language. The pizza was good, don’t know if NY style or not, but it was good and well loaded with all the ingredients we ordered.

Yummy pizza and fries! Nice vibe. Come early to get a seat!

We grabbed 2 slices of pizza while checking this amazing area ! The pizza were so good and specially the one with the Onion ! It was the first time we try it and we definitely can get back just to try it again and try other pizza tastes. This place is recommended for a fast bite !

One of the best old pizzas in Jerusalem and in Israel. 🍕 It’s really pricey, cost 15 nis per slice which is like 3.75 euros and not sure on the value for money as the slice is small but very tasty so totally recommended to try. For owners: reduce prices so people return more. And also how about offering good gluten free options as well?

Not bad, the Bulgarian cheese slice I had on another trip was not good but these slices were ok. The slushy was too Icey and impossible to drink

Pizza is good. But not NY pizza. Too thin, crust is not fluffy.

Just hummus, but The Real Deal. Opens 9am and already it’s hard to find a seat (the place can only hold around 30 people). You can have it straight or with chickpeas or ful or both. Simple, fresh, and delicious.

Absolutely spectacular houmous with fuul, lovely topping of olive oil and lemon, and great falafel to go with it.

Perfect place to eat hummus while checking out the old city.

One of the best hummus in Israel.

The best Humus I ever had ! I took out, but you can seat in.

Great Hummus, the pita bread was a bit dry

The four of us stood together with their parents at the age of 15 minutes right in front of the chef, they just wanted to take a can of hummus to go, but nothing happened. In Hebrew, I told them that we want, they did not pay any attention to us and did not serve us. At the same time, during the time that we stood in the hope that they would pay attention to us and give us a can of hummus, they made probably 30 plates for their Arab friends, who continued to come right from behind us, grabbed their food and ran into the bowels of the market. I do not recommend to anyone, although once a friend treated me to hummus from them - it was delicious

This is one of the tastiest and most flavorful burgers I've ever eaten. I'm talking about the version without the vegetables and they just have a sauce that makes it feel like cheese, but more than that, their meat is really good and tasty at a high level. Really good prices, great atmosphere and good service.

Sorry but no words could put this Berger into a sentence. Is Berger is in one of a kind delicious masterpiece With a delicious bun coded with a delicious sauce with some veggies sandwiching the best most awesome melt in your mouth, Berger !!! wow this place is not overrated at all. It’s actually underrated. You must come here and taste the Berger. Thank you so much the most unbelievable team.

Great hamburger ! Tasted their regular burger and also their special burger. Both were great, I prefer the regular to the special meat that tastes a bit like sweet brisket. Best hamburger in Jerusalem, regular hamburger costs 58₪ not cheap in my opinion but worth it.

This is easily the best kosher burger I've ever had, and it’s even better than most non-kosher spots I’ve tried. The sauce is incredible, and the bun was toasted so perfectly it tasted like it was fried in butter. Be prepared for a bit of a wait, but I promise it's completely worth it for a burger this good. An absolute must-try if you're in Jerusalem! 🍔

This was delicious. Really wanted a burger and this did not disappoint. As an American I love a cheeseburger. Even with cheese the Golden Burger is amazing. We are part of the church and hope to start going to Israel every year or so. I plan to tell all future groups to try and get here for at least one meal. If I'm ever in Israel again I will definitely make a point to get another burger from here.

Orders through wolt. One of the best burgers I’ve ever had. Try it!! Golden Burger - thank you for producing quality food 👌

No service to be expected... Very dirty place The food is ok but arrives after an hour, unless you are vegetarian, in which case you can expect waiting 1.5 hours

They are really pushy, they tried to sell my wife a big portion while she asked for something smaller, then he started to push her and make her feel very uncomfortable, it's nice to get a taste in the street but based on her experience I'll never buy here again, the halva is really good

Halva Kingdom makes the finest, most delicious tahina I've ever tasted. I have tried many brands and a few are very good but . . . The tahina from Halva Kingdom surpasses them all.

I bought Halva with pistachios. Unfortunately, it was full of pistachio peels. Also, in spite of I insisted many times to reduce the portion, the vendor didn’t want to reduce it and it gave me half of a kg of it! I wanted half of that.

Halva Kingdom sells a wide variety of the Mideastern treat called Halva. This is very sweet and delicious. Halva Kingdom is located in both the Open Shuk and the Closed Shuk.

Sesame seeds ground to Thina. Halva is made of Thina (Tehini), lots of sugar and various flavor additives.

Avoid avoid avoid! It’s a scam. You can’t rate lower than one star but they are taking advantage of tourist and customers. The place runs like a fraud. They push products you didn’t want, the over charge, the quality is poor. It’s a scam.

Vendor was very pushy and cut off larger portion than I asked for $40. American dollars for a slice. Total rip off

DO NOT GO TO THIS PLACE. Although it might look tempting, and although the baklava is ok, they are STEALING YOUR MONEY. I have been ripped off and payed 100₪ for a small tray of 18 sweets. Disgraceful.

Only go if you like wasting your money!

Very very expensive, but very good

Standard sweets

It is a bit far from Italian restaurant. Several Italian drinks are missing, cappuccino you can get only in clear glasses, it is not enough just to have pasta and pizza and to be Italian restaurant. Service was good as well as the interior of the place. Food is tasty and good, portions as well are good size. It is nice place to be but it needs a bit more attention to details and ensure better overall experience.

Well, I sat with a friend who doesn't eat gluten. We ordered a gluten-free salad and a gluten-free pizza. It was really delicious. The prices are a bit expensive, but not too much. Overall, it was a great experience.

food was pretty good. service terrible. no waters, delivered dirty dishes 3 times before finally giving clean ones. blasting music, turned down at request then immediately turned back up. forgot part of order.

Very good and very Italian. It did take a while till they seated us but once seated most of the food came out pretty fast (our reservation for 20 was also with a preordered menu). It is not the very best kosher Italian restaurant I've been to but the food was all decent to very good. It is quite expensive....

With a very nice ambiance this dairy kosher restaurant offers an Italian menu. We had the business lunch options. There were average with a higher than average price tag. Nothing remarkable, unfortunately.

If you don't have a reservation you will likely wait an hour. We were there are around 2pm. Staff was super friendly. We ordered mushroom risotto, Fettuccini, and Margarita pizza. Once we ordered the food was very quick to arrive. The risotto came with a spoonful of parmesan cheese in order for the waiters to serve more clients i guess. The risotto lacked some flavour. I've had better. All else was pretty good. Prices were a little high than Italian I've had in the past but all good. When the bill came I asked about an additional charge. It took about 10 minutes to pay as the waiter had other tables. They advised it was an automatic tip, 34 shekels. This wasn't advertised anywhere and I wondered if it was legit. I paid anyway.

Luciana is a dairy Italian restaurant located in Jerusalem. I have been to Luciana several times and have always had a pleasant experience. Their staff is pleasant, their prices are reasonable and they keep it clean. I love the restaurants decor and the food is really good. Their presentation of the dishes is nice and the food is fresh and tasty. They have a variety of cocktails and an excellent wine selection. This time I didn't have a cocktail or dessert so I guess I will have to come back again 😋 *Good idea to make a reservation before going as the restaurant was pretty full. For restaurant reviews and more follow me on Instagram at dining_withdina hope to see you there ❤

Went for a dinner. The restaurant has good price range, you can have a meal that will cost you less than 120 shekels and you can also have 2000 shekels bottle of wine. The food was extremely tasty, the chicken and the fish were perfect done, the fries as well. The staff is very friendly and polite, a 5 stars service, food and environment. I definitely recommend this place and once I come back to Jerusalém, I’ll come back to eat here.

Food was amazing, the fish is so fresh. The greens were super uplifted and everything we ate was great. Except the dessert, we ordered pistachio creme brulee, after we ordered she said someone told you it's not pistachio, we said no but we tried it anyways. It didn't come with any berries or accompaniments like the menu said and it was coconut, no one told us any of this. The service was great, starters and mains came out fast but the dessert took double as long to order and serve (we definitely would have passed if we knew how underwhelming it was going to be.) They have so many other exciting options on the menu we would have chosen instead. It would have been a perfect meal but as people walked in without reservations they seemed to be caught off guard juggling everything and the service was bad. They also messed up the bill but swiftly went to fix it. Overall food was incredible non the less.

We had an absolutely lovely early evening meal outside! The fish and chips is crunchy and delicious, with very good french fries. The lamb kebabs were gluten free and excellent, the sea bass was very tasty, and the green vegetables were a hit. 2 Goldstar Unfiltered draft beers went really well with our fish and chips. Excellent service, pleasant surroundings, overall a big hit!

Wife's Birthday and we are glad we came here. Food was lovely, ambience romantic and a surprise dessert! The best bit though is the service and friendly approach of the staff! Must visit this place when you're in Jerusalem. I will definitely come back to dine here when I return!

Nice small restaurant friendly staff. Food is nice and good for sharing. We ordered seafood platter, bread, salad , risotto, 1kg steak , dessert; very good.

One of the few restaurants open on Shabes. To our surprise, excellent seafood food. All prepared with fresh and tasty ingredients. Very friendly and helpful service. Excellent homemade wine. We were satisfied beyond measure.

Awsome restaurant in downtown Jerusalem. Our CEO dropped us of here and referred to it as one of the best restaurants around. He did not promise to much, the food been simply amazing and staff was just perfect. However I have to take one star off since the red wine had a way to high temperature. But apart from that, this place is must go to when you are in Jerusalem.

Perfect place. A combination of great service, delicious food, attentive personnel and gastronomic delight is hardly found in Jerusalem. Accidentally got here while walking in the heart of the city and were amazed by the atmosphere. It’s not that the interior is something unique or unbelievable but the people that work at Mona fill the restaurant with kindness and professional care. This place is authentic chef restaurant providing gastronomic masterpieces inventing something new almost every evening. How pleasant it was when we received very tasty dish on the basis of corn as a compliment. We wish that this place would be open also in the mornings and be more accommodated for families with children. Definitely worthy of 5 star 🏅evaluation!!

The food is good, but not great. The service was bad, really bad. It’s a small place with low ceilings and therefore it’s very loud when full. The service was like a neighbourhood eatery. Food comes out of the kitchen when it comes. There is no order and the staff states this is the system. The place is clearly understaffed. What a mess. Some of us finished eating when others were still waiting for food. The staff was overwhelmed and did not clear plates and glasses. They have good intentions but this is far from professional. The Chef maybe a good cook but a lousy manager. While I enjoyed the food, visit was disappointing.

An excellent restaurant in the center of Jerusalem, based in an old building and magical atmosphere. Great Italian inspired cuisine - simple but high quality and cooking skills and a good service. Had a wonderful evening.

Said to be one of the best and most romantic restaurants in Jerusalem. We started with the sourdough bread. My favorite were the corn agnolotti, the steak and the brocomini. We also had the barkanit farm cheese, cod croquette, sweet bread, barzaula, spinach salad, fish sashimi, vegetarian linguini and lemon linguini. Everything was excellent. For dessert we had the cheesecake, cream chocolate and the fruit salad. Below are photos of what we had for reference. Non-kosher.

Overall it was good, Although the food was 90% tasty but some of the dishes need to be improved. Fair prices, bring your wine is great with very reasonable price. Nice atmosphere and friendly and professional service.

Great place with great fine food. We were two dinners and we ordered 2 dishes from each category, a total of 6 courses which was more than enough. The food was very good and the service was outstanding. The restaurant is located in an old building and the back garden was really a perfect romantic place.

I was looking for gluten free food on Wolt and found this place. I had a lamb burger with a gluten free bun. The bun was good, couldn’t tell it was gluten free. The lamb burger flavour had too strong a lamb flavour. I ordered a side salad and it was a decently large size.

It is a basic burger place. The good side is that is not kosher so you can have cheeseburger but then one slice of cheese is 9 shekels. Burgers are good. The regular ones the meat is rather small. Cheese fries were a bit tasteless, the fried onions in the burger where actually burnt onions. Overall was ok, but too expensive for what they offer as overall experience.

Wonderful burger, really good customer service, great experience all around. the people behind the counter were quick to answer any question I had, the food arrived really fast, and the price is pretty good for the area and the meal.

First after I ordered my burger and found out that it's too big for me, I asked the server to have it wrapped so it can be cut in halves. Then I finished half and asked the rest to be wrapped again for a take away. All requests are pleasantly fulfilled by them. Will certainly be back. The burger is unbeatably great!

I Like Burger. I do my Burgers in high charcoal Heat. Pure Beef, Sometimes Mixed with Lamb. Usually 200 g a Patty . Seasoned Just with grey seasalt only,. All Summer Long I Had No opportunity for a Barbecue at all. So I visited Iwo's butcher Shop and deli First. They directed me to the Burger Joint. I decided for Iwo's Classic Burger 400 g pure beef, wow, what a Patty. The bun Open with all the regular toppings. Sauces, Help yourself: Mayo, mustard, Chili, Ketchup and tobasco Red and Green. I am Happy smiling. Fries are a must. Meat tasted like pure beef. What a pleasure. 1-2-3 that's it. They also serve Burgers in a Plate without bun. Chicken Nuggets we're a Side dish, soakef with tobasco, garnished with chilli sauce and Mayo Like a Candy.

This was a very good burger, the meat was super juicy, the toppings great. I did not like the bun; however i am not marking down for this as this type of brioche bun is the "in" bread right now. I had the potato wedges as my side. --fantastic They have the electronic menu ordering system, however the counter person took my order verbally along with explaining any options. If you looking for a burger this no frills joint is just the place!

Great burger place, really one of the best I've ever tasted. Great meat, and beautiful fries.. highly recommended if you are around and getting hungry. Great service too and friendly staff.

We got to the restaurant to have breakfast. We were told there was one table in front of us. They didn’t have the ability to estimate a wait time. After the table ahead of us was seated being told we were next. They changed their mind and decided someone else had priority. 25 minutes of waiting and we left.

Highly unsatisfactory experience and not worth the waiting line. After a week time of close to 40 minutes we sat down to a breakfast for two. I asked about gluten free options and the waitresses said there were non, but promised to keep the bread separate from the meal. The meal arrived with crackers on the cheese and when asked to replace it with a cheese plate that crackers had not touched, they returned the plate covered in crumbs. (They had clearly just removed the crackers). We had to wait a long time between each request, and the waitress was indifferent and unhelpful.

Expensive but tasty. The food was quite good but it was around 20 euros for a plate of pasta at lunch. Tap water was offered. Service was a bit cold but efficient. Decoration is good and has a great vibe.

We came early on a Thursday night, and were seated outside. Great atmosphere - lots of helpful and attentive staff, and the food is beyond delightful. They’re pastries are on a whole different level that any other bakery - and their fresh homemade pasta was such a treat. We tried a few of the dishes, and loved them all - there are only good options here. Breakfast served all day, too! :)

Worth every second of waiting. Amazing place, fresh food and dessert. A must go to place in Jerusalem! Whenever you have a chance don't miss it! The owners are husband and wife who love there job and you can feel they enjoy it, wonderful experience!!!

There's usually quite a wait during lunch. The food is great though. Got a feel of authentic French to it. They specialize in pastries so be sure to eat as many of those. I think the croque madam dish was a bit disappointing. The goat cheese croasone toast was great however. They also have great deserts that you can choose from the cabinet. Generally highly recommended, especially off peak busy hour

Arrived around 10AM on Friday and the place was super busy so had to get in line. My number was 26 so I decided to take a stroll around the area and see some shops and other stuff (which turned out to be a good decision since it took a whole hour and 15 minutes to get our table). After the waiting was over and finally sat down, everything turned out for the best. There’s quite a big variety of breakfast options on the menu so you can find anything g from the classical breakfast, croissants, salads, toasts and more. We took two dishes with some fresh juice and it was very good and fresh. Later we decided that there’s no way we don’t try something sweet and here I implore you to go inside and see what catches your eyes (for me it was almost everything) and get some recommendations from the staff. Everything was delicious and so good that we already decided to come back again ASAP. Some tips: Try to come early in the morning and be prepared to queue up. The good thing is that they work with an app that shows you your turn in line live. Take a stroll around (get water as it’s hot), see some shops and boutiques and random artists and musicians. Be patient with the waitresses as they are under huge pressure and it can be seen they lack some more employees (we had to wait about 10 minutes for someone to take our order and then another 10 for the bill). Overall I remember the good experience, amazing food and yummy sweets.

My favourite go-to falafel in Jerusalem. Quick and easy service. Shawarma, schnitzel and falafel on a pita or a larger laffa wrap

The falafel place to visit in Jerusalem. Great food and interesting street full of colorful characters and people from all over the world stopping by to grab a falafel. Cant go wrong with Moshiko!

I love Moshiko. First, the staff are great. While you're waiting for your order, or sometimes are just queueing up, they'll hand out delicious falafel balls fresh out the fryer. It's enough to wet your appetite for the best schwarma in town. I always visit there. I love it. And so will you! It's incredibly reasonably priced too.

Good falafels, very friendly staff, low prices (starting from 18NIS for falafel in pita, 35NIS for falafel on a plate). Very good pita and laffa bread. They have some tables, so it's possible to sit down and eat while enjoying the view of a very alive street. Sometimes there's a line, mostly of tourists as Moshiko has their menu in English - most of the places around, with similar street food, have their menus in Hebrew only, so they don't catch that much attention of a hungry tourist. Cons - they don't have toilet; they don't serve tap water (only water in plastic bottles - what bothers my ecological conscience - for 7NIS), they serve food only on plastic plates.

As touristy as this place is, there's a good reason for it. Their fries stuffed pita and laffa is to Israel what a California burrito is to California. Delicious.

Not great, not bad. Very average Falafel. Prime location on Ben Yehuda gets it points, though there are better places to be had.

Fresh and tasty food. Shawarma was fantastic. We went there at 11 in the night after a late flight and were surprised with the ambience and the energy of the crowd outside.

I waited to be seated by the host, as the sign instructs. There were two hosts deep in conversation with the only table that had customers in the entire restaurant. I made eye contact with the hosts several times and they did not ask me if I needed to be seated, if I needed help, nothing. Finally after waiting for five minutes I decided to eat somewhere else.

You need to get ready to wait for the food be ready but that's what you can expect from a very popular place. Not fancy if this is what you're looking for but makes you feel the middle east vibes.

​I visited on a Friday and had a really excellent experience! My "Jerusalem Mixed Griil" was prepared super quickly and honestly, it was one of the tastiest I've had in Israel. My only thought is that it felt a bit pricey for just one pita with a can of Coke, coming in at 72 NIS.

We visited this old restaurant on Agripas Street near the entrance to Mahane Yehuda Market, known since the 1970s for its “Jerusalem Mixed Grill.” Four of us sat down, and the table was quickly filled with salads, mezze, and laffa bread. We each ordered the house specialty – the Jerusalem Mixed Grill. Unfortunately, the dish was a big disappointment. The portion was very small, the meat was extremely dry, and none of us enjoyed it (all four agreed, so it wasn’t a matter of taste). The plate was just a pita with 3–4 spoons of meat on top – far from a proper main dish. Then came the bill: 538 NIS before tip for 4 mains, 2 beers, and 2 Cokes. That’s about 150 NIS per person for a tiny, dry portion – absolutely unreasonable. Service was also poor: waitresses avoided eye contact and didn’t check on us, so we had to chase after them for anything. In the past, I had tried their takeaway pita from the window, which was tasty and much more reasonable. But now, with prices of ~80+ NIS even for a pita with fries and a drink, the value is just not there.

I’m embarrassed to say I never been to Hatzot until tonight.. The atmosphere was beautiful & genuine, the service was attentive & fast, and the food…. After ordering, an large assortment of salads & pita bread arrived with our drinks, followed by the appetizer dishes, and later the large portion, sizzling hot, main dishes. We struggled to finish the food, interrupted by the smiley waitresses asking us if everything was alright.. In addition to being stuffed and barely able to fit more food in our stomachs, the gestures and smiles made the night. I’d give this place 7 stars out of 5, and can’t wait to be back, and being the family over for an authentic Israeli cosine experience.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ If you're searching for the best מעורב ירושלמי in Jerusalem – look no further! This place absolutely blew us away. The מעורב was flavorful, juicy, and cooked to perfection, with that signature Jerusalem-style spice that hits just right. But that’s just the beginning — we were served 16 kinds of fresh, delicious salads along with generous sides like crispy French fries, comforting mejadra, fluffy rice and beans, and a hearty bama. It felt like a feast made for royalty — so much abundance and variety! If you’re hosting someone from out of town and want to leave an unforgettable impression, this is the spot. The food, the flavors, the hospitality — truly a celebration of Israeli cuisine at its best. Highly recommended!

Hatzot is an iconic and authentic Israeli restaurant which has been open since the 1970s. The restaurant decor brings you back in time. The walls of the restaurant are covered with photos of many famous people who have dined there over the years. The service was great and the food was plentiful. We had a good meal and left feeling full. Hatzot is famous for its Jerusalem mixed grill consisting of liver, heart, spleen and bits of lamb and onion. Not my cup of tea but if you like that sort of dish then this restaurant is definitely the place for you. For reviews and more follow my account on Instagram @dining_withdina Hope to see you there 😍

Excellent food, good vibe, lovely people. I need to come back soon to try all dishes from the menu :D The menu is not updated online but I still got the lovely soft polenta. The black truffle oil is super aromatic and goes well with the mushroom. The polenta itself is creamy and fluffy, yet not heavy at all. For the main, the fish filet came as two pieces of sea bass with surprisingly beautiful crispy skin :> The agnolotti is perfectly made and cooked, and I very much enjoyed the thick pinched slightly chewy parts. I was warned about the sourness of lemon butter, but as someone who eats lemon and drinks vinegar, I loved how it lightened the fatty fish and fatty. The roasted garlic clove is sweet and melts in mouth. I don’t usually touch garlics but I couldn’t resist finishing that one. The Spanish songs in the background is lovely and relaxing. The wine list looks impressive. The staff are super friendly and attentive.

What a perfect place. A real gem in Jerusalem, in a quiet and pastoral neighborhood. Service above and beyond expectations. The food is simply delicious. Pleasant music. Highly recommended place.

We visited this establishment in Jerusalem for breakfast, and were shocked by how poorly we were treated. Despite at least eight empty tables in full view, we were told there was no available seating and were denied breakfast service. The reason given didn’t make any sense — and frankly, it felt like unjustified discrimination. It’s incredibly disappointing when a venue treats paying guests this way: having empty tables yet refusing to seat people is unacceptable. The policy is baffling and makes one wonder if some guests are being unfairly treated compared to others. We expected fair and courteous service, but instead we left feeling unwelcome. Could you please clarify where we can submit a formal complaint about this incident?

TL;DR Great food in a small but very nice place It's located on the street level of the Jerusalem theater. It took us some time to find it since the google maps announced we were there when we stood on the theater plaza which is the restaurant roof. The place is small with just a few tables but it offers a nice warm  space to dine in, not crowded or noisy so you can enjoy the excellent food that is served there. We got a table of 8 for a late lunch and took all you can eat/drink when they just get several firsts and mains out of the menu and you can order more of what you like. We liked them all. The food was really good there, the wine was also good and with good company it turned out to be a perfect event. We got Appetizers: - Polenta - Green salad - Za'atar coated calamari - Asparagus - Tomatoes in garlic - Shrimps - Pate en croute - Some mushroom dish Mains: -  Beef cuts -  Risotto - Sous vide chicken breast - Some other but I don't remember Desserts: - Lemon cake - Almond cake - Ice cream Everything was really good. I especially liked - Pate en croute - Beef cuts - Lemon cake Price was really good for the food we got. Parking is hard to find on the surrounding streets - we had to park a few min walk that is less present in the Jerusalem winter even with the hot sangria we got on the way out.

Finally we have something good to eat at The Jerusalem Theater! Good service, clean, cozy, spacious and most important - delicious!!! My personal suggestion - good Aperol Spritz would be just perfect at sunny afternoon (you should add it to the menu)

We love this restaurant, one of our favorites in Jerusalem for any special occasion. The atmosphere is calm and pleasant, not too loud and not over crowded. The food is very good, I dont think we ever disappointed from a dish here. The pastas are homemade and they ate terrific. The sea food is fresh and cooked to perfection. Tastes are delicate but rich and combining very well. They have a nice wine selection. The only problem with this restaurant is the parking. Not a lot of parking available near by, especially when there's an event in the nearby theatre. Luckily on Fridays and Sauterday this is not a problem at all.

High quality food and very nice decoration and atmosphere The location is also great - situated underneath the entrance plateau to the Jerusalem theater. Prices are not that steep. Only issue was the service which was incredibly slow and they forgot some of our orders (bit they did provide them free of charge as it was their fault)

I have been to Jerusalem a few times and have my favorites, but I couldn’t get into the 2 restaurants that I wanted so I took the suggestion of the front desk at Mamilla Hotel. He recommended Angelica. Looked at the pictures and was impressed. I gave it 3 stars because of the service not the food. I cleaned my plate. Food is great. Well seasoned and nicely plated. Service kinda sucked. It took awhile to get our drink orders when they took it the wine came out quick but I was one of 2 that orders a Coke Zero. It took forever to get my coke and I had to follow up. Next the waitress was rude to my sister’s boyfriend. He wanted medium rare burger. She insisted medium even medium well. It was really her attitude though. How she answered him. A little disappointed for such a nice restaurant.

The private room and the service were good, i think that for the expense and the expectations we were expecting a little more, we enjoyed the private room it was a little hot with the lights that heat, a simple switch to LED would help reduce the heat in the little room, the service remembered a lot of details but the small requests were forgotten, great food and options atmosphere was great! The sound in the private room could have been dealt with to accommodate the room more

My heart (stomach?) is broken. This used to be one of the best places to eat. It's just awful and expensive. The service was ok (no refilling of water) and an unwilingness to open a bottle of merlot to serve a glass. But the food was just terrible. The ceviche was too sweet with some passion fruit coulis that provided some color but did not allow any fish to be flavored. The carpachio wasn't that - but rather made to look to ceviche and was tasteless. The minute steaks were awful - tough and tasteless (the fries were excellent - although less good because the bad meat was slathered over them making them less crispt). There were no vegetables at all on any of the dishes! They were shades of yellow, orange and brown... nothing green... nothing that spoke of the connection of food to nature. The lemon mousse was fine and I enjoyed that... but the chocolate souffle was not cooked! How hard can a chocolate molten cake be to do right? There is a severe lack of vision... gone are the days of beautiful colors and interesting connections between dishes - a fusion of foods that made sense. This was poor quality mess. What a shame.

Angelica has not just remained consistently outstanding in terms of food and service - it has even improved which I didn’t think was possible as it was already amazing. With its perfect central location and food that will make your mouth water and will leave the most difficult diners with a smile and happy stomach - Angelica remains my favorite fine dining restaurant in Jerusalem and very possibly in the country. Thank you. King Regards, Jeremy Weiss Concierge Manager The King David Hotel

Very nice and testy! The food was great, and the service was very good. For the first dish we ordered the Chicken Liver Pate and Roast beef Bruschetta,both were full of great flavors and very good! For the main course we ordered the Grilled Beef Fillet which was well made and had many great and cool add-ons on the plate. Highly recommend.

Food is Next level in Taste, Presentation and Creativity. Service was Solid! Would be going there every time I get to come to Israel.

I have been there several times.Last time was very deceiving! Food was average.It's a shame,I used to love this restaurant..

A cozy non-kosher cafe in Rehavia, Jerusalem with high quality homemade food, pleasant ambiance and smiling waitresses. They have a business lunch 👉 order the main course and get the first one for free. Discount on beer and wine during a lunch. #foodinisrael #restinisrael #lenarestrecall #едавизраиле #ленагидизраиль_еда

Very nice place with tasty food, good selection of wines and pleasant vibe. We got salmon and beef tartare, beef tenderloins and beet and camembert salad. Everything was amazing, however, I personally would go easy on parsley for salmon tartare. One minor minus — gin & tonic comes mixed. Most places in Israel serve gin on ice and a bottle of tonic on the side — that way you control how strong your drink is. We’ll be back for sure!

Excellent! Tasty food, great service and cozy atmosphere. We were a party of 7 (about the limit for same table here...) and everyone enjoyed their breakfasts. Thanks for a wonderful experience!

The perfect place. I was in charge of finding the night’s fare in Jerusalem and was looking for a light menu with drinks….Cafe Yehoshua more than delivered! Inventive and delicious cocktails (Pink Lady which is on the dry side & Spicy Margarita-both fabulous!), shrimp in a garlic broth with vibrant tomatoes for an entree, veggie bowl and the chicken schnitzel. All delivered by lovely staff in a warm venue. This is a neighborhood gem as evidenced by the eclectic mix of patrons that streamed in over time. I was drawn by a review that mentioned a light menu but they left out the decadent desserts….bring more friends or enjoy alone with stretchy pants🤭 but don’t miss out on this incredible cafe!

One word: Shakshuka. If the rest of the menu is anywhere near as good as the shakshuka was, you are in for a treat! Cafe Yehoshua staff were great. I was enjoying the shakshuka so much I was worried I was making noises similar to the ones Meg Ryan was making in When Harry met Sally! Cafe Yehoshua gets multiple stars, or whatever the scale is!

Loved everything about cafe yehoshua. Loved the atmosphere, the service, the English breakfast with mushrooms, grilled tomatoes, potatoes and fried eggs, and of course delicious sausages. The benidict breakfast was also good. Last of all the music was perfect

The service is nice and attentive. They have a kids manu and some colors for the kids to draw with, which is nice. We got the recommended schnitzel and the Philly Cheese Steak and loved the latter much better, although the portions aren't big

Friendly service. However the cappuccino was quite bland and watery. Maybe they can't do proper coffee. The salmon bagel was quite chewy. Overall disappointing. Nice location though.

Anyone who wants to indulge in some delicious cake, something sweet, something salty, this is the place to enjoy and indulge. A little expensive but worth the price. Highly recommended.

We had a fantastic experience at Roladin! 🍴 The food was delicious and exceeded our expectations. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, making it perfect for a night out with family. The service was also top-notch. We can't wait to come back and try more of their menu items. Highly recommend! ⭐️😋

Terrible hostess please fire her , there was a table for two no line and she just ignored us and went somewhere every time for five minutes. Maybe the food is good but the service is terrible

Great location and view... normal kitchen ... The place is located on a very beautiful street, where there are many shops, several cafes and restaurants, and many different small sculptures. Some of the tables are located outside and, due to the high position of that part of the street, on an elevation with a good view of a part of the city. Normal staff who can help you with an order. But the condition of the bathroom was very disappointing(the floor with puddles, the door handle of one of the cabins was almost broken, a broken seat mat). About the kitchen: I ordered one of the special dishes (seemingly thick big toast bread with tuna and omelettes on it and vegetable salad as a side dish), my wife ordered fried fish with the same salad, and my mother - ice cream and coffee. They drank red and white wine and a craft beer for me. I tried everything except coffee and ice cream and everything was very tasty, so I liked the food and drinks, except one thing, the tuna was salted more than necessary.

Coffee was good. Food is interesting.... I ordered from the specials: mediterranean sea fish with tahini souce and salad. Would I come for seconds? Definitely not! Food was either over seasoned or bland. Dessert was just ok. Roladin didn't justify its reputation. Service same as food: some servers are attentive and some moseyltly ignore you. Tables are not cleaned between guests. New guests are being sitted when a table is vacated without being wiped clean. I've noticed this happening repeatedly with four different tables. (Yuck!) View is amazingly, but that's Jerusalem, not the place....

So salad I order with tuna has a hair, and then, we try eat some cheesecake which has a plastic on the side…. I would not recommend this place for visit.

Local Jerusalem Gem. Meant for locals and discerning tourists looking for a quiet spot. Breakfast is well served and prepared with many amazing flavors. Coffee is Very good too. Highly recommended , but don’t give this special restaurant away too quickly. The atmosphere is perfect. I don’t want to ruin it by attracting random loud tourists. Service was excellent! Thank you Shai for making this my new favorite restaurant in Jerusalem

We’ve ordered a breakfast for two but shared it for 3 people, because the portions are rather generous. Various toppings and dips to eat with bread are nice, and it was a good experience overall, but some of the dips just too spicy, and some things included to this breakfast are strange, as, for example, sweet potato, which was cold and not really tasty, and omelette wasn’t fluffy. The tea I’ve ordered (chai) wasn’t flavored enough

This great spot in the heart of Jerusalem is always lively and full of energy. They serve fresh, flavorful salads with complimentary bread and dips. It’s a one-of-a-kind experience you don’t really find anywhere else in the city — I’d definitely come back!

Lovely ambience, great service, beautifully presented & very tasty salads. My husband & I both enjoyed the best coffee , cappuccino & double espresso we have ever enjoyed. Dessert was a scrumptious Lemon/raspberry tart. Highly recommend Nadi Cafe! Will definitely be back here soon!

This review is specifically for the Emek Refaim branch. Small cafe but really pleasant place. Not a lot of choices on the menu but everything is served beautifully. The cheese cake is AMAZING. The staff is super pleasant and efficient without being pushy. An excellent place in the neighborhood.

One of my favorite brunches of our entire trip. The platters with the sauces are where this place shines. There are many types so be sure to choose wisely. I wouldn't choose the green shakshuka - I thought it would have more sauce. The apple chutney, olive tapenade and sun-dried tomato dips were all awesome.

The three of us had breakfast. We liked the presentation of the food. The coffee was delicious. The sweets were very tasty.

Cozy restaurant, nice waiters. We had the Sea fish bruschetta for starter, which was amazing, and shared the "Mushroom & Truffle Tortellini" with "Red tuna" pizza. The prices are on the expansive side (relative to other restaurants in Jerusalem), but we got a free antipasti salad. Overall, great restaurant, worth paying a visit.

We had dinner at Al Dente, and it wasn't bad, but I don't think we are going back. It's a very small and cozy place, so it's best to make a reservation. Their menu looked pretty good. We ordered for two people a starter (arancini: good but nothing special) and 2 pasta dishes (chestnut ravioli: not good at all, and tagliatelle Verde: good but very heavy). We paid 215nis. Prices are ok, but food promised to be better, we were a little disappointed...

One of the best Italian food in Israel!!! The service is perfect and the chef Asi Itach will give you the best experience you need to have a perfect day.

Very good Italian restaurant with varieties of good pastas and fishes. Good appetizers as well. We took 2 different pastas and both of them were very tasty. We had Tiramisu for dessert and was also well done. Service is good and staff friendly. Order a table in advance since the place is not very big.

Excellent Italian food in a cozy atmosphere. Many vegetarian and fish entrees at this delightful little restaurant. A good small dessert menu as well. Charming atmosphere and attentive service.

Coziest place in the town, worm atmosphere, very friendly service Homemade like food, fresh and tasty Endive salad is great, also mushrooms ravioli and focaccia bread Will be back definitely 😊

We were here for dinner. The service is professional and kind. The chef of this restaurant is excellent. The food is high quality, fresh, and delicious  . We definitely will come back again. highly recommended.!!!!

Harvey? Are you the owner? You should give Texas style BBQ a shot. I have not eaten here or ever been to Israel. I wish I could visit. Smoke with an oak or pecan, use ONLY salt and pepper very liberally. Smoke at 225-250f to an internal temp of 208-210f. THEN wrap in butcher paper and stand that beautiful brisket a few hours at 150 f. You will have the most tender juiciest brisket ever that will hold for hours but when word gets out you will be lined out the door and down the road. ;) with love from Texas

Overall good experience, probably the best smokehouse in jerusalem, but here are some issues with my experience: - on lunch time they didn’t have any beers - the brisket was ok but dry - we got a good service but they can improve it by being more professional and showing that they care about the customer more. The rest of the food was delicious and well prepared. I would recommend trying the popcorn chicken, chorizo sausages, pulled beef, even the pulled lamb was very good. A bit overpriced.

The waiter didn’t even ask how to cook the meat, then we had to wait 40 minutes for 3 burgers and the place was pretty empty. They really cheap out on the fries. And the prices are expensive!! YOU SHOULD AVOID THIS PLACE.

Paper dirty menu pitcher of water dirty cups most of the meat's thay didn't have Takes long for the food to come the waiters don't know how to describe the food for example I ordered an extra fries he didn't tell me that my dish that I ordered it really comes with one I asked for some bread or crackers they charged me 22 shackle for them That's way overpriced after I drop down there more than 1,200 ILS

Really good food and the staff was friendly. Just pay attention that the meat prices are per 100g and not for a full portion. It seems cheap but it’s not. The meat was super tasty, the shoulder is a great option and also the chorizo. The chicken balls are amazing

Wow! When you crave BBQ - this is the place! If we had more time, we would have gone back. After three weeks of delicious Mediterranean cuisine, our taste buds were ready. Harvey's delivered! Thank you! Every item was delicious and plentiful! Burnt ends were my favorite. But can't go wrong with any that we ordered.

Awesome smoked everything and then some! We were visiting from Jamaica and getting a little tired of the typical Middle Eastern flavors so we decided to try this spot. Everything was awesome. Top notch service. Our waitress was super and so were the chefs. You can tell they enjoy their work experience. Burnt ends were the best and the serving is definitely entree size. Shared with my friend and we could barely get through it along with our main meals. Chimichanga was also delicious and large. Smoked meats were good. Creme brûlée was great. Zero complaints. Wonderful all-round.

The food is really delicious and the service is very fast. They waiters are really friendly and helpful (especially yoni!!). I have been here many times and I am still going back!! If you want a night out this is the perfect place in Jerusalem.

The staff and service is outstanding The food was Mehadrin and truly great. Only issue is you need to ask them to pace the food delivery to the table. They are a bit too quick and you don’t want your steak while eating the appetizers. Otherwise you can’t go wrong.

The music is great - upbeat and positive vibe. Birthdays are celebrated with extra special music and fun hats given to the whole table. Must go !!! Food was absolutely delicious and plentiful. ENJOY !

Guys i recommend that you ask for amir. Gave us great course recommendations and were surprised how neat the plating was honestly the chef deserves michlen star and service was ten out of ten. Its rare to find a high end restaurant in jerusalem a must visit

I had an outstanding experience with Yitzhak and Amir! They provided exceptional service and demonstrated incredible attention to detail. Every aspect of our interaction was handled with care and professionalism. I truly appreciated how they went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. Highly recommend!

Greetings to all the staff and owner. Our waiter Amir was great. Needless to say everything was delicious and very tasty we had a great time. Amir’s service was gracious and top notch!!

wow Entrecote jerusalem was AMAZING!!!!!!, beside the great food and the beautiful atmosphere but the service was A+!! And if you are getting a drink get the strawberry daiquiri you will not regret it as it comes in a cool cup with a cool taste so at the end of the day if you don’t come your missing out

Located at the edge of Mahane Yehuda market, Arica Sabich offers just one thing: sabich, the combination of fried eggplant, slow-cooked egg, amba, chili sauce, tahini, hummus, and salads (cucumber, tomato, onions, pickles, herbs) in a freshly-baked pita or on a plate. The sabich here was traditional and rustically assembled. The slow-cooked egg was sliced and crushed, so it had a nice creamy consistency in the sandwich, and the highlight was the soft, chewy pita that held all the ingredients together.

Omg the best! We come here twice a day because it's so fresh and only about $6. Very satisfying mix of 8 hour cooked hard boiled egg, hummus, fresh veggies, and various magical sauces combined to make an explosive taste sensation that will have you coming back as a daily pilgrimage.

The pita is fresh from the oven, the ingredients are delicious and perfectly balanced, and the staff are courteous and lightning-fast. A note of caution: no matter how hard you try to eat neatly, you’ll still get tahini all over you… but it’s definitely worth it!

It is located across the busy Machaneh Yehudah Market. Aricha Sabich offers delicious food at an affordable price. You can definitely ask for help with your order if you don't understand the menu here. It is a friendly atmosphere, and the staff is always willing to assist with your order. This was my first time trying this food, and I was amazed at how tasty it was. Best sabich in Jerusalem!

If you like eggplant go. One of the best street food experiences ever. I had the mushrooms instead of eggs in the eggplant sandwich. Truly tasty and amazing

Best food i ever had in my entire life! Not being exaggerated but ive never like eggplants and fell in live with it cuz of this place. Authentic flavor and a group of people who has passion to serve the customer with best and fresh food. If i were to travel back to Jerusalem, it is for their food.

Very delicious and fairly priced (23 per one sandwich - which was nicely sized portion). Never had Sabich before and si I didnt know what i will get. Although i am not vegetarian, it was really delicious and fresh.

The burger tasted like a frozen one from the supermarket (and not the good quality kind). Can't even describe the stomach ache and nausea that came after. Good thing the service was fine

Fantastic kosher hamburgers for good prices. The value meal is very good. For 55 shekels you get a main dish, a side dish and a drink. I chose the Mexican burger, 240 grams of a good, spicy burger, accompanied by the house's fries. Both were very tasty and satisfying. You can add many toppings to the hamburgers as well, including duck liver and more.

Great take on burgers as an American. Spices match the descriptions and were a complement to the burgers for sure, not a distraction or novelty. Lovely service despite the hectic pace as it was packed. Definitely recommend after a tough evening shopping at the market!

Staff is very kind , went with my Koran friend and really enjoyed

Very good burgers, fries, and onion rings. The service was excellent considering it was crowded and busy.

Superb burger, great atmosphere and service. will definitely come back. I had the spicy burger (cant recall its name..) and it was great.. and really spicy. We were three of us - one ordered the burger with tahini which he said was great and the vegan friend ordered a vegan burger which was also very good. As a side order I took the sweet potatoes fries - I didn't really like it - too oily.

Amazing burgers. Some of the best in Jerusalem.

For being in Jerusalem, this taco spot does a decent job with what they have. The tacos aren’t exactly authentic Mexican, but they capture the general idea pretty well with fresh ingredients and good flavor. That said, the portions were on the smaller side. I ordered 4 tacos, and it cost around 70 shekels (roughly $21 USD). For that price, I expected either more food or something a bit more filling. Still, if you’re craving tacos while in Jerusalem and you’re not expecting true Mexican street food, this place is worth a visit. Just know you’re paying a bit more for the novelty and location.

No joke or exaggeration, The best tacos I’ve ever had in my life. The service is amazing. The place looks good but these freaking tacos are just amazing. I had a mix of two chicken and one beef and I cannot wait to come back to Israel for more!!!!

One of the few authentic Mexican spots in Israel. It’s a small location and the lines can be long depending on the day and season, but that shows how much people enjoy it!

Excellent! Just wanting something a little different than the usual fare we decided to check this gem out. Super friendly service and probably the best tacos I’ve had from around the world. I was skeptical being so far from Latin America but they did not disappoint. The tortillas are amazing and so not fall apart. It’s a treat watching them make them. I won’t say if it’s expensive or cheap as that’s subjective to each person. However we did find good value for the price. Even busy the food comes quick. So if your Hangry this might be a great choice if your in the area. In the end I highly recommend this taco joint. Beautiful area for a stroll after or before dinner as well.

Very authentic Mexican Street food, made and served by real Mexicans in the heart of Jerusalem. I come here a lot and always have a great meal. Recommend choosing one of the colourful drinks (I'm not going to try and remember the names) and the churros as a desert.

Delicious tacos, loved the chicken option!! Super flavourful and spiced with fresh lime and veggies on the side. The workers were really kind and gave me their recommendations as well. Highly recommend!

Good place for Mexican food, tacos mainly. We took the 2 kinds of chicken and 2 kinds of meat, which were served nicely and were tasty. The dish is small and the price per unit is good. (About 16Nis. per unit)

The food was good, I’ll give them that, but the service…Shameful. I stumbled upon the place in the Shuk, and it looked solid so I ordered a small bite, after waiting for a while I approached the cashier to ask how long it would take, and mentioned that I’d be waiting half an hour, he not only was not accommodating but audaciously “corrected me” saying it had only been 28 minutes. I proceeded to wait an additional 32 minutes before receiving my sandwich, it was delicious but honestly the attitude of the staff, and the waiting time, made it an experience I would not wholeheartedly recommend.

Fun place to stop at in the shuk for finger licking good wings!!! I have never had such good wings, they were perfectly done. Such a good crispy exterior and amazing sauces. I loved the Chipotle Maple and my boys loved the Classic Buffalo 🔥🔥🔥 Really friendly service, definitely a place you’ll want to hit if you’re in Machane Yehuda.

Wow! I heard about it and I finally went. I’m glad I did! The service was friendly and quick. The food was delicious!!! The beer was amazing and the froze is definitely unique. Not much seating area so you might wanna come at an empty hour. Can’t wait to come back and try more wings!

best wings worldwide !!perfectly crisp and delicious sauces to top with !🔥🔥also amazing in house brewed beers and make sure to order their funyons it's worth to come just for that ,and dont forget their famous chocolate chip cookie made with beef tallow for dessert.

A place where they charge 5 dollars for a can of coke. Good wings. Good service. Most expensive wings around, wish they would go back to older prices.

Finding a place around the market could be sometimes very chaotice. Beautiful place place, local beer, I am not into beers, so of course I have my classic Gin&Tonic, the food portions where perfect both in presentation and flavours and off course the customer service superb.

We took a walk over to the Machane Yehuda market and discovered this gem in the middle of the highly sensory overloaded experience. Over the past few years, the market has been turned into this fantastic night life, we had check out the market where people of every race, colour and creed sit together. Now let’s discuss Hatch. We walked into this tiny kiosk like space, turned into a hip cafe. They were blasting hits from the 90s. Everything seemed so intentionally designed with the Post-Millennial in mind. We opted for the the Beer Tasting. We had four incredible beers. The sour ale was by far the best sour beer I had ever tasted. It was not too sour and didn’t leave an after taste that makes everything taste sour for the next 3 days. There was a nice smooth finish that wasn’t bitter like other sours I’ve had. Beer the call the Pizza Beer was fun alternative. The other two beers the Pilsner and lager were creative and open. Loved it. The beer is all made right there. The beer maker “Mendy” was there while this little joint was hopping with people. Really liked that were served an reusable and paper. No plastic is used there... an Israeli first for me. I must mention the kosher certification. It’s a great certification and they are proud of it. They even had the Mashgiachs number listed one the menu. Will definitely be back before we leave Jerusalem.

A really cute little cafe. The service was friendly and given with a genuine smile. There’s seating room inside and outside. We ordered lattes and vegan sandwiches: one with artichokes and the other with cashew cheese. They were tasty, but needed a little more flavor for my palate. The latte was real good, though. The barista knows what she’s doing. The prices are a little high. Two large lattes and two sandwiches for ₪86 seems to put this cute cafe on the more expensive side. Might as well eat in Tel Aviv. The service was friendly and courteous. Tel Aviv should take a lesson. One issue is that the outside seating area (street) is on a slope, and the owners should find a way to make the table and chairs level. The bathroom was quite clean, but I like a bathroom that is spotless and completely hygienic and that smells good. Perhaps offer those paper toilet seat covers. But this one has a window, which helps a lot to keep it aired out. The clientele seemed cool and intelligent. All in all - a very nice experience.

What a delicious meal. Authentic food, definitely has a home cooked feel and taste. Really enjoyed it. Came during Shabbat on a Saturday and they were open. Fabulous little place to grab a quick vegetarian bite.

One of the few places open whilst it's shabbat. To their credit it's a small establishment yet very well organized and service was quick and meals came out fast. The food was also amazing, well seasoned and very tasty. Would recommend highly.

A very cute place. Friendly and inclusive. We had espresso with ice, ice tea that was very good, and ONE OF THE BEST COOKIES I'VE EVER HAD. Seriously though, it was unreal (I'm referring to the chocolate cookie, btw. The granola one was also quite amazing).

The food was phenomenal! The cafe was so cute, there's seating inside and outside, and service was great! Would definitely recommend and more definitely come back!!

One of my favorite spots to grab a coffee and read or use my computer. The food is amazing and also the service. Great wifi connection.

great coffee, vegan friendly! good location and fun to sit there and work or read. staff is kind and friendly

The guys at the counter are very actively showing off but it is fun to watch. The malawach is great here indeed, the pastry is buttery and crispy, and you can choose the fillings including sauces, spreads, fresh veggies, hard boiled eggs etc. It costs 30 NIS, and it is pretty sizeable, best place to eat the the market.

8.27.17 - fast and fresh. I'm not sure if this is a chain, but we ordered the memulawach and it was darn good. The bread is flaky, light, and chewy. The filling is flavorful and filling. Awesome fast food with really nice service.

The shakshuka is okay, but not nearly as good as homemade. Too much tomato paste and canned crushed tomatoes being used instead of fresh, so it's a little sour. Very little red pepper or other vegetables in the sauce. The eggs were cooked well however (half done yolk) and the grilled garlic bread was tasty. Enough for two people to share for breakfast for 35 shekels.

I still have dreams about the shakshuka wrap. Last time I was in Israel I took a day trip from tel Aviv to Jerusalem just to go to Jahnun bar. Everything here is so good wow.

The best jachnun!!!! Easy to find but no seating inside, however there’s a little park area across the seat with benches. Not much choice here so luckily the only real thing to think about is whether or not you want an egg in it. Do it. You won’t regret it. It’s a malawah wrap with egg and other goodies inside. Fresh and made to order

Lovely little vegetarian bistro serving delicious middle eastern cuisine. Friendly staff, reasonable prices and explosion of tastes these meals bring onto your palate. There are couple of tables outside, make sure you watch the preparation, it is quite a show ;-)

The main dishes here are jahhnun and melawwahh. The place has a kosher certificate. I had the melawwahh. It is somewhat like a moist thick fried pancake, filled with your choice of delicious dairy and vegetarian toppings, and folded up. It filled me up for only 25 NIS. The workers show off a bit, flipping the melawwahh high in the air. ADDED: Now during coronavirus, these are things you can eat conveniently standing up or walking. The price hasn't gone up, and the taste, if anything, has gotten even better!

The place with interesting food options. Knafe with the meat! Unusual, taste is nice. Onion jam and eggplant jam is real fantastic The place is good to visit to try something new.

I really liked it, it's novel and fun and it wasn't too busy when I visited. The onion jam was really delicious, and something I'll be trying myself at home!

In one of the small street restaurants in the market I found this place who serves kosher meet based knafe. I really like knafe and this place was great for it. The food was prepared from scratch and was very fresh and tasty. It came with many dressings and options on the side. The service was great and made sure I enjoyed it over and over. I had a great experience and would very much recommend my friends

Amazing service super nice 👌 and even better Amazing food. Highly recommend!

I was very curious to try this as I have never tasted savory knaffe before. I ordered Knaffe asado and was pleasantly surprised! I actually loved the mix of flavors and can definitely recommend everyone to try it. The suaces on top are tahini!

It was interesting experience to try knafeh with meat. Unusual but tasty.

It was nice to try something a little different but the staff were pretty unfriendly and it was one of the most expensive things we ate in the market despite being the smallest.

By far the best NY style pizza in Jerusalem not even close. Preferably ask them to make you a fresh pie for the best option. Service is slow, and there's not much seating, but that's the Shuk. But the pizza is 8.5/10

Excellent pizza and well priced! I split a cheese pizza with a friend and we both really enjoyed it. It was hot, cheesy, and perfectly cooked in the oven. I think my only real complaint is that we took it to go because the place got a bit smoky from the oven! Definitely recommend.

Craft Pizza: A Legendary Spot for Late Nights Looking for an unforgettable late Thursday or Saturday night? Look no further than Craft Pizza – a legendary place that is truly one-of-a-kind. Brace yourself for a potentially long line, but count your lucky stars if you secure a table in this sought-after venue. Trust us, it's worth it! Their pizza is nothing short of legendary, with flavors and toppings that will transport your taste buds to new heights. Personally, I went with the mushroom and plain slice and was quite satisfied.

The laid-back vibe at Craft Pizza adds to the overall experience, making it the perfect spot to unwind. Now, let's talk drinks. While the drink menu may be limited, they do offer a refreshing selection of seltzer, coke and diet coke in glass bottles. If you're in need of water, you can conveniently find it next door. But don't let that deter you; the flavors, quality, and ambiance at Craft Pizza more than make up for it. So, why wait? Plan your visit to Craft Pizza and embark on a culinary journey that will leave you craving more. Don't miss out on this extraordinary Pizza Shuk experience!

Delicious sour dough pizza. Probably one of the best pizzas you'll eat in Israel. The dough, the sauce, the cheese, and the toppings are all made with high quality ingredients. Craft has become my family's favorite pizza store 😊 For reviews and more follow my account on Instagram @dining_withdina Hope to see you there 😍

Excellent Sourdough crust pizzas in delicious flavor combinations. Tried the beet topped pizza - incredible flavor! The service is also top notch. All with the great vibe of Shuk Machne Yehuda in Jerusalem.

Fire fire fire pizza. There pizza is large with delicious cheese and sauces. One slice is the size of 2 slices in most pizza places. I highly recommend going.

This was the perfect slice of New York style pizza right in the heart of the market! The garlic butter that came on the side was so wonderful as well. I wish we had that as a side back home!

There are nice wines and variety. We took an argentinean malbec which price was around 70% more than in wine shops which is normal. The waiter brought the wine with the cork half out, opened next to me and just left... It is a wine bar so I was a little shocked that he didn't pour me to taste. Anyway the wine was excellent. The pizza burrata is very good, focaccias are very good. Plates of cheese and charcuterie are not worth the price in my opinion. There was no desserts.

Cosy small friendly venue, local wines as well as from the rest of the world. The daily dessert was a Kenafa, perfectly baked with just the right amount of sugar not to cover the cheese and pistachio. The manouches were super good and the Nadim Bitouni wine aged 2019 was a nice discovery. A place to stop by, with friends in a small group (max 6 people). Typical dishes with fresh ingredients. Smiley professional and super fast staff: you can get a bottle as well as a glass of wine, plenty of choice from the shelves.

Really good food and local wine with friendly service. A lovely place just inside the New Gate to grab a glass or two of local wine and have some delicious food. Friendly staff, nice selection of wines by the glass as well as by the bottle. We've eaten there twice now and tried lots of different dishes (and all of their wines by the glass) and each one was a treat in its own way, you just can't go wrong here. The house read Cabernet from Monte was a big hit with me as was the Jascala Rose for my wife. The burrata is off-the-hook good and a special treat for sure.

Twice we stopped here late while in Jerusalem. Wonderful food, very good local wines. But best of all, an engaging and friendly staff that makes it all work like a gathering of friends and strangers you won’t want to leave.

Great food and very attentive service. Antipasti Focaccia and manchego salad were excellent . Knaffe could be better.

This is a small establishment but a great one! The focaccia and salads were perfect, and we had the Armenian dishes which were a delight. The service was attentive and quick and the prices are the usual norm. The menu is small and with only a few choices but all of them are very good. The house wine was excellent as well. The only desert option was perfect ( see the photo) and we will surely come back if we have the chance.

The dishes. The service. The atmosphere. The service. Top notch! The perfect place to close the day.

Wow wow wow. Beyond delicious. So fun watching the sandwich be made one perfect spoonful at a time. Every bite delicious

I never had this amazing culinary experience! The taste of pita was very good and the vegetable ingredients that the owner used for fulfilling the pita was extremely generous and tasty. I strongly recommend.

Fresh and flavorful Sabich -- one of the best I've tried. Loaded with lots of vegetables and sauces. The man who prepared it looked like an expert. Very fast and precise. Good service, too!

Looking for a tasty Sabich in Jerusalem? THIS is the place. Incredibly tasty for a good price (27 NIS June 2023) and the owner is sweet man that always has a smile for you. There are some seats right around the stall

For the street food, it's a well known little place that is loved by locals and those who stumble into it following the little line of hungry regulars. There is basically one item on the menu: pita bread stuffed with fried eggplant, hard boiled egg, fresh vegetables and Hummus (cheakpeas paste) go for it!

Home made pita bread, delicious and clean. On lunch time very busy. (It's just one kind of course (if you don't know what sabich is...) but one of the best in israel

Nice owner and I got the last one today! If you wanna have one do not forget come here as early as possible. It’s obvious that all the recommendations in google map is wrote in local language Hebrews. Even as an Asian I like this taste!

Best kebabs in Jerusalem. Small plain restaurant with about three tables - cooks kebabs (mainly beef but some lamb) to order. Served with hummus and bread. Served on plate with skewers or in pita. Very popular with locals too. Recommend on any stop in Old City!

The best beef kebab, grilled chicken, hummus and Arabic salad in the Old City 🙌🏼 the flavors are so incredible and everything made fresh. Bonus: the owner is so kind and welcoming. We ate here 4 times during our stay- great value and unbeatable flavor. It’s a must try! Do not miss this hidden gem. For 4 skewers, hummus, Arabic salad and all the pita, it cost us approximately 100 NIS

Surprised that there are so few reviews after that Mark Weins exposure. I was looking forward to this place for a long time...and it didn't disappoint. It nearly did though as we showed up twice on a day when they weren't open. Thankfully, they were opened later in the week because it's not a straightforward restaurant to locate. Refer to the GPS coordinates posted in an earlier comment. The uncle is now in his mid 80s and no longer cooks, but his son has taken over. The best hummus and kebabs we tasted in Jerusalem! It's a small restaurant and the variety is small, but whatever they have, is EXCELLENT! Value priced too.

This restaurant is like eating at home : 3 tables, no menu. Choose between kebab (40nis), chicken skewers (40) and lamb (60). Hummus&salad (10) are really good . Choose and let the magic happen!

Hidden jewel in old Jerusalem; It's not very easy to find this tiny restaurant, but definitely worth it! Handmade kebabs and hummus, prepared just after order - fresh and tasty. The most affordable and tasty place to eat within the walls. The beef kabab prepared fresh right before eyes and grilled over coal fire, is simply heavenly! The humus and the finely chopped veg gies salad in a creamy dressing is simply fantastic! When you are in Jerusalem, Al-Baghdadi is a must try place! You cannot leave Jerusalem w/o having eaten at Al-Baghdadi Restaurant. It's open 7 days a week from 9am - 8pm. Now a days they have changed schedule and on Mondays they remain open, When planning to visit on Monday do inquire first on their number +972 2-627-6812 How to reach: As the Bab Hutta St is not to be found anywhere on Google, simply enter the Lions Gate and walk straight. The first street to your right is Bab Hutta St. Once Bab Hutta St, walk straight and look for the sign Al-Baghdadi Restaurant. When you come from Via Dolorosa, Bab Hutta St is on your left before you exit the Lions Gate.

This was by far the best place we ate in Jerusalem. It is not somewhere you would stumble across - you will find the small restaurant off the Lions Gate road, towards the gate itself, with a sign directing you 200m down towards the restaurant. The owner was extremely friendly and kind, and the kebab (lamb, beef or chicken) was the best we have ever tried, along with the hummus and bread. Also incredibly reasonably priced compared to the rest of the city. Highly recommended!

This was a cozy and intimate restaurant with limited seating. I visited this restaurant during lunchtime with two other companions, and we were pleasantly surprised by the quality of food and service. The standout dish for us was the hummus, which we all agreed was the best we had tasted in Jerusalem. The food was not only delicious but also affordable compared to other restaurants we visited during our trip. One thing to note is that they only accept cash payments, no credit cards. However, this shouldn't deter you from trying out this gem of a restaurant! Overall, if you're in Jerusalem and looking for a tasty and budget-friendly meal, I would definitely recommend giving Al-Baghdadi Restaurant a visit.
