I was hanging out with some friends one day, celebrating their new home purchase, and then we got hungry. So I pulled out the ol' Yelp collection map, and I saw that the Heart of Jerusalem was the restaurant closest to us at the time. I had never been, so we loaded up in the truck and hit the road!We got there around lunch time and found a seat pretty readily. We started browsing the menu, and everything sounded so good that we just didn't know where to even start making decisions. We eventually settled on some food, and our very friendly server took our order. I got the Ultimate Plate (grilled & chopped chicken breast with shaved gyro meat). It was served on a bed of lettuce, served with grilled za'atar pita, Greek salad, hummus and falafels. It was quite the spectacle, in a great way. First and foremost, the falafels were in the shape of hearts. Come on, you don't get much cuter than that. On top of that, they were delicious. Not too dry. That's a killer when it comes to falafel, dryness, but none was found here. All the meats were dynamite. Very moist and tender, all marinated and seasoned well. Mixing and matching bites with the pita and the salad and the hummus was very fun and very delicious. I have no complaints whatever. Overall, great food in a great location. It was exactly what I wanted, and I will be back.

My first impression walking into this place is that it was clean and cozy. This is a nice little restaurant to go to if you want to enjoy a meal and good conversation in a place that isn't too loud. The service is quick and pleasant. The food is delicious! I got the ultimate plate - it was made to perfection and a large portion. The presentation, quick service and flavors were on point. I will be back!

Very cozy restaurant. I could tell that this place is well cared for by the interior. I ordered the chicken plate that comes with salad, hummus, pita and falafel (love that!). The food was spectacular. Large portions freshly made that taste super authentic. I will definitely be back.

This place is a must try! This restaurant was small and quiet, perfect for a nice family meal. I appreciated their patience with me as a first-timer; they were very friendly and willing to explain each item on the menu. The food came out quickly and tasted very fresh. The price was very reasonable given the large portions. Honestly, everything was delicious!! You can tell everything about this restaurant is authentic. I can't way to go back!

Mediterranean food has not always been my first choice but after visiting heart of Jerusalem Cafe, my mind has been changed. I love the food, the taste, the quantity, the service. Everything was amazing! I can't wait to go back!

Wow! This small mom & pop cafe is underrated! I've been meaning to come to Heart of Jerusalem for a while, and it does not disappoint. Everything tastes so fresh and perfectly spiced. Plus, how can you say no to heart-shaped falafel? The only slight improvement would be for service. A few times, the waiter was walking too fast and would say things in passing rather than address you directly to ask how everything was.

I found the food pretty bland and uninspiring. We were the only patrons in the restaurant and still we didn't get the waiters attention (he was on the phone most of the time) for refills or other dishes.

Hands down my new favorite place to unwind with delicious food in the wonderful company of Mike, the owner, and his staff, who are very warm and friendly. The ambiance makes me feel like I can check off visiting Jerusalem off of my bucket list too! Definitely order the kunafeh and baklava for dessert and have it with their sage tea!
