Jerusalem Organic Kitchen

I live down Solano and can't believe I have not walked into this place. I definitely will be back!My lamb wrap was fairly priced for the size of it (see photo). Falafels were on point too. Excited to try the other items in the menu next time.

We came here for lunch and ordered the Middle Eastern platter and the cashier automatically updated us to the Falafel platter for an extra two dollars. It was strange he didn't ask us and when I asked about the higher price, he said the Flalafel platter is better so he ordered it for us and it includes falafels. The Falafel platter was good but I have never been upgraded to a different dish without being asked first so that's a bit presumptuous.We also ordered a chicken wrap and that price was also higher than on the menu attached to their ordering table. It was about a dollar higher. I wonder if they didn't update their menu prices. In any case, we enjoyed our lunch but it would be nice if they were more honest with their prices.

This is a small, inviting, and cute place on the corner of The Alameda and Solano Ave. They have several tables inside and some outside, and it seems they do a lot of takeout. It's not fancy, but places like this are usually my favorite because, even if the atmosphere is casual, the taste of the food more than makes up for it.I noticed another review mentioning that customers were served in takeout containers with plasticware, but that wasn't the case with our meal. I wonder if there was something off that day--perhaps they were low on staff or a dishwasher wasn't working, or maybe they took the reviewers' comments into consideration.My husband and I had the morning off to run errands and decided to grab a bite to eat. He suggested Jerusalem Organic, as we'd seen it many times but had never tried it. Since we weren't super hungry, we decided to share a plate.We opted for the chicken shawarma plate, which was gluten-free. I got the pita on the side for my husband.The food came out quickly and was really delicious. I will definitely go back!

Order the falafel platter, which is so tasty! Highly recommend dining in-- the fresh falafel was perfectly crispy on the outside and so soft in the inside. I also really enjoyed the Jerusalem salad, which paired so well with the rest of the platter and had such a bright, refreshing flavor. A delicious and healthy meal, highly recommend!

Excellent falafels. Tasty carrot lentil soup. Causally atmosphere. Space is very low key.

My first visit to Jerusalem Organic Kitchen was to celebrate my 25th birthday with my mom when she was visiting me from the Seattle area. We enjoyed our food and overall experience so much we returned on a separate occasion, possibly to celebrate my 27th birthday, with me, her and my dad. He enjoyed dining here as well.Both times I was living off of Solano Avenue, so the restaurant was not too far from the house. We chose to eat a little staggered from meal rush times and were happy to find available seating and a relatively quiet interior. Worker(s) were friendly and helpful in figuring out what to eat and taking our orders. The food both times was delicious, I particularly enjoyed the chicken and lamb shawarma platter.

We recently had a fantastic dining experience at this small, cozy restaurant with our family of 14. The staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating, even going out of their way to put four tables together so we could all sit together comfortably. We ordered a variety of dishes, including the salmon, chicken shawarmas, and wraps. Every plate was delicious and exceeded our expectations. The menu has plenty of options, so there's something for everyone to enjoy. Overall, we had a great time, and we're already looking forward to our next visit. Highly recommend this place for both small and large groups!

Located on the top of Solano Ave, parking is easy to find. Depending on if you want to pay you have street parking, but also if you go on side streets you don't have to pay. When you enter, the interior seems a bit run down and the tables were a bit dirty. They seemed to have a variety of food options on their menu from wraps to hot platters to seafood. We ended up ordering the lamb Jerusalem burger and the shawarma wrap with hummus and fries. Presentation wise, it was a bit disappointing. The fries and hummus were served in a to go container even though we were sitting in the restaurant. Our food was served on a paper plate with plastic forks. We were excited to try their pita bread thinking maybe it was homemade; however we saw it was coming straight out of a plastic bag that one could get out of safeway. Overall food was okay, lamb was overcooked and the burger was dry.

One of the best chicken shawarmas I've had in the Bay Area. The meat is thinly sliced and very well spiced. The spicy sauce is incredible. The rice is pretty unique and has some veggies in it. I love that the meat is very tastefully done and not brute force like a lot of other places.They have cute outdoor seating as well and staff is super nice. Would definitely come again even though it's a bit of a drive for me.

One of my clients recommended this place a while back, raved about the salmon. I didn't feel like cooking tonight so I placed my order via grubhub. The salmon was delicious and a generous portion! It comes with a sweet/spicy sauce.The falafel were tasty, a little crunch on the outside and not dry when you bite into them. Everything else was meh- nothing to rave about. I got the salmon plate with a side of falafel. The rice was bland and the "pita pocket" tasted store-bought. Salad was average. I won't be rushing back. The interior didn't look like a dine-in place. I would just do take out, if I decide to order again. *the picture doesn't show the full order, just my portion on a plate :)
