This is a rather small market attached to a restaurant, roughly the same size. I had the beef with hummus dish, and it was one of the most epic dishes I've had. The hummus was perfectly smooth and creamy, way better than anything one can find in a supermarket. The pita was fresh and warm. There was some ground jalapeno's for an optional punch, and there was plenty of olive oil to add flavor to everything. I can't wait to try other dishes at this restaurant.

I was excited to hear that Memphis had a middle-Eastern market...coming from L.A., I was so excited thinking about ALL the wonderful things and tasty treasures that i would find there. It was a Saturday, mid- morning...fresh produce was pretty much non- existant, lebni and ( fresh baked, still warm pita ) and dates were there ...bought some - pita did not impress, spices were all pre- packaged so I passed, and deli meat was pretty much non-existent. Pita comes in fresh on Saturday...still hot when it comes in!... A huge plus but i can honestly say, ive eaten tastier! The merchandise seems dated but i could still see potential. This was pre- covid...perhaps i will give it another pass.

After eating at Queen of Sheba next door, we stopped by Jerusalem to do some shopping. We live in Nashville (and were visiting my brother in law in Memphis), so we have quite a few really great Middle Eastern/Kurdish markets. Jerusalem was just as great as the ones we frequent in Nashville! Freshly baked breads, halal meat, cans and jars of everything you can imagine, refrigerators of dairy products,...they had everything! I picked up some things I had run out of (preserved lemons, Turkish coffee) and enjoyed wandering the store! It was well laid out, well stocked, and very organized! The woman who assisted us with checkout at the register was lovely and made sure we knew the bread was fresh! It's a great store to check out if you love to cook! Wonderful products! Stop by and cook something new (and support a local business at the same time)!

I finally made into this place a few times over the past few weeks after a couple of years of wondering what all I might find here. It is a great little market with attached restaurant. You can get your bread, hummus ingredients, halal meats and many other Middle Eastern/Mediterranean cuisine ingredients. They usually have a big display of baklava by the cash register that gets me every time. The staff is helpful and very friendly. This will be my place to pick up a quick lunch or ingredients to explore the regions cuisine.

As is usually the case, plenty of hate on here from folks expecting fine dining. If you come here expecting an exquisite atmosphere, then you deserve your disappointment.It's a very simple diner, but clean with quick friendly service and fast food prep.I started with the hummus and pine nuts. Outstanding. The pita bread was fresh and hot.My entrée was the #32 combo which includes a salad, kafta, chicken, beef shish tauof, and rice. All of these were fresh and tasty.I will certainly return. If you're a Med foodie then I recommend you do the same.

I haven't seen another place like this in Memphis. This is a halal (butcher that slaughters the animal in the 'humane' manner that corresponds with Islamic law))/Mediterranean restaurant/Arabic food market. And the owner does a good job of providing all of the basics and more for cooking, including lemon juice, tomato sauce, Sultan olive oil, dates, and more.Also sold is a nice selection of Mediterranean food, including shawarma, falafel, and hummus.

Stumbled across this place when in the area doing Doordash. Looked it up and decided to try it for a quick lunch. It's located inside a specialty grocery store (fascinating inventory!) and is relatively small and unassuming. Was served large helpings of hummus and pitas and a falafel pocket bread sandwich. Both were delicious and I could barely finish. It was under $10. You pay at the grocery checkout. I will definitely go there again.

The worst food ever I ordered 2 orders of lamb and 1 order of mix meats ordered delivery the lamb were burned and unflavored the taste of burn was horrible the same with the mixed meat was not that burned like the lamb but was sooo disgusting. We love Mediterranean food but this place was the worse we ever eat and spending $130 for the food that went straight in the trash we had to order pizza for the kids. Don't waste your money with this place.

Used to be a favorite for delicious middle eastern food. Apparently, post-Covid, new kitchen and just awful. Maybe a bad day. Will give it one more try. Sad.
