Taste of Jerusalem: Reviews & Ratings
The food was fresh & delicious. Great menu. Clean restaurant. Service was excellent. Low noise level, easy to talk and hold a conversation. Next door from Meijer on Colonel Glenn Hwy.
In Ohio for work related trip & looked up “Healthy Restaurants near me” and this place was top rated, close location, and looked tasty. ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS! Ordered the Mixed Kabob & the portion was greatly plentiful & taste was out of this world!! Would 10000% recommend and look forward to eating here again when I’m back in Ohio! The staff were such a vibe & made the experience worth it!! Yummy !!!!!! Wish I could take a plate home to FL !!
First time writing a review while dining in! The food looks delicious and tatse even better. I got the mixed kabab platter with the yogurt drink and that hot sauce. (Skipped the aromatic rice because I go no carbs/low carbs). The taste of everything is really incredible. The chicken is grilled to perfection The beef literally melts in my mouth as I type The ground beef is delicious because of the seasoning You have garlic sauce and hummus and bite that onion with your meat. Chase it down with the yogurt drink. Everything is made fresh.....you'll know it. The sweet lady behind the counter is great as she helped me pick my meal. Hands down this is the best middle eastern food I have had.....its a must try! This was too good!!! Thank you!
Pretty much the best food in the history of food. Literally drove over an hour just to eat here and I would have driven two. I have the atmosphere 4 stars because I feel like this should be an actual restaurant and not fast casual. The food deserves better than that. I've had a lot of "Mediterranean" food but this place 100% does it right. If you want the best hummus, kibbeh, falafel, kuftah, shawarma, etc. This is it. This is the place. The only thing they don't have is fattoush salad but I really don't care. The riiiiiiiiice.... The rice is so good. I am actually not a grape leaves fan usually but I will eat the HECK out of those grape leaves. I don't know what magic they do. They just do.
The staff were professional and nice. The food is made there, and is not fast food, keep that in mind, food may take a bit longer. The food was good, if I come back I'll request no salt on the fries, that was just a bit more salt than needed. Serving size is abundant, the platter meat will provide me with 3 more meals. Would love to see a dessert offering.
My husband and I loved the food here! The staff is friendly and inviting, and you can tell they care about their food. There is a lot of great options to choose from, especially for vegetarians (but truly for everyone). We both ordered the falafel wrap, which came with fries. We also ordered a side of hummus and pita. Everything was delicious! The service was fast. You order at the counter, and then you wait for your number to be called. We were happy to find this restaurant, and we will definitely be back!
If you ever want to get outside your comfort zone in terms of flavor or food culture, THIS is the place to go. The food is always good and you get good portion sizes. The prices here accurately reflects quality and portions. Going here during lunch is difficult at times unless you get there right at opening. This place can get really busy during lunch and can take 30-40 minutes sometimes, but it is worth the wait every time. I usually get the chicken bowl or platter depending on if i want leftovers. The lamb is great too but I usually go with their chicken. The chicken wra is also AMAZING. I did not have grand expectations for a wrap but they toast the outside with their open charcoal grill and it gives it such fantastic flavor and it isnt that expensive. Fries are also great. Highly recommend this place, I don't have the largest experience with Mediterranean food but this is undoubtedly the best I have had. I mostly get their food to go but there are option to sit, although can be a bit cramped at times especially when the line is almost out the door. Real Score: 9.6
Absolutely excellent and delicious food. I had the platter with beef and chicken kebabs and kofta. The meat and chicken was so tender and tasty, the hommus was smooth and perfect and there was another sauce (was it toum?) was a perfect counterpoint. The tables were comfortably full, and comfortable conversations floated around the room. There was no television, which I appreciated, customers simply enjoyed having a good meal and companionship. Oh, and the rice was TO DIE for (I am a rice conneusieure). The establishment was very clean, too. It didn't have a cloying rancid grease smell that some restaraunt have. You should go here.
