Jerusalem Cafe

I’ve been meaning to check this place out for some time now and finally had the chance to eat lunch there today. This place is on point! I had the Chicken Shawarma gyro and it was really tasty. The meal came with a really good Greek salad and a savory rice dish. I wish they had a lunch specials menu because I’m cheap but my meal was less than $ 10 so not too expensive. I will definitely be back. I got some baklava to go and can’t wait to eat it.

On a business trip and was told to try this place out… the lentil soup is amazing! It’s not a typical Lebanese lentil soup they purée the lentils… the grape leaves were very good very tiny but very good… the lamb gyro meat was not fresh it was pre sliced and just grilled not authentic at all… tabouleh is touch and go because everyone makes their tabouleh differently there was no olive oil no lemon or mint so it was just basically chopped parsley a scarce amount of cracked wheat tomatoes and cucumbers… in other words if your looking for authentic then I’d find another place to go…

Went for an early dinner, around 5pm, was seated immediately. There was only one other couple there.
The menu has a lot to choose from and many vegetarian options too.
Ordered the Hummus w/​gyro meat app. Was delicious, served w/​warm pita. You can tell that they make the hummus fresh.
Ordered Chicken Shawarma w/​soup and a Large Greek Salad. The Shawarma came with rice and a real tasty curry lentil soup. It was mildly spicy and full flavored. The meal was super filling and priced right.
On a downer note the Greek salad for $ 7.50 was just OK. It needed more Greek flair to it. More olives and feta, some Greek peppers and should have been a larger portion.
Greek salad aside, this place was delightful and you get a lot of yummy food for your money.
We will definitely be back.
