Jerusalem Cafe

When we originally walked in the young lady wasn't that friendly. When I asked her name, her attitude changed some. If you sit in the booths, the table is far from the seats so since we were the only ones in the restaurant, we slid everything to make it more comfortable. The hummus was really good. The lentil soup is with yellow lentils and very thick. The croutons are good but you must ask for them, they don't come automatically. The falafel Sandwich is good, just with they added hummus to the sandwich. They do not serve pine nuts in the Lebanese tea, bummer. The grape leaves are really small with not much in them for the price. I doubt I will be back.

I was visiting Mobile and came across this place, ambiance and service was great. For food i will say it was ok. We ordered combo plate for appetizer. Falafel was cooked to perfection but didn’t like the taste. In the main dishes we ordered the combo kabab plate (chicken, kifta and lamb) . Rice was too sticky and didn’t seem was Mediterranean rice, all kababs were bland in taste. Other plate was gyro wrap, which my nephew mentioned it was ok.

We had a great meal there! The service was friendly and fast. I got a chicken dish wrapped in pastry and my husband the lamb. They both came with grilled veggies, rice and a dip. The rice is pretty tasteless in my opinion, but I could drink the dip and I loved the salad dressing. The portion sizes are generous. Eat here, you won’t regret it.

This is a must go to!!!! From the moment you arrive it is a warm atmosphere filled with the sounds of middle eastern music. We were greeted by a hostess and seated without waiting. We started off with the Jerusalem combo platter, with exception we did forego the baba ganouj as we discovered earlier this year we have an allergy to eggplant 😒. They were amazingly accommodating to this and doubled up on the regular hummus. The pita bread was hot and fresh. I had a lot of firsts here and the rolled grape leaves were one of those. It was a very interesting flavor that ultimately reminded me slightly of a pickle. The tabouli salad tasted extremely fresh and I really loved the essence of cucumber in it. The hummus was honestly the best I've ever had and do not underestimate the fresh hot sauce! Entrees Ordered were : Gyro platter, Greek salad with grilled chicken, and gyro sandwich. We really enjoyed every aspect of the entrees. The Greek salad is served with a homemade house dressing that goes perfectly with the feta cheese and salad. The chicken was juicy, tender, and packed with flavor. My husband and son also said their entrees were flavor packed. Everything was perfect and our only complaint was that we had no room to try dessert. As we were about to leave we met the owner who was very humbled and pleasant to speak with. If you have not been here yet definitely stop in soon!

Went here for the first time, and got the Dinner Feast for Two the food was very good the flavors were full and complexe. Serves was great our waitress kept our drinks full and only brought out the next course when we were ready. The restaurant has simple, very clean and comfortable with bright lighting and soft music playing. Will definitely be returning to try other dishes.

When I arrived, I was met by a friendly young lady who seated me. I went to the restroom before being seated because I was by myself. She quickly returned and took my drink order. After a few minutes passed she came and took my order. Within minutes it seemed, my salad arrived, it was the prettiest salad I've seen yet. It was different (I've never had Mediterranean food before) but in a good way. It was beautiful and delicious. Moments after finishing, she stopped to let me know my appetizer should be out shortly, she was going to check on it. She returned with it immediately. It too, was a beautifully plated and very tasty. About halfway through the appetizer, my main dish arrived... It looked like something from a magazine, all of it did. It was equally as delicious! The hostess, checked in several times and was very friendly and attentive and the inside of the restaurant was serene and inviting, very elegant. Overall, it was hands down one of the best dining experiences I believe I've ever had.
