First time here. We tried their Saturday buffet to taste the various dishes they offer since we are absolute novices with this cuisine. Generally, everything we tried we liked. Since it was a buffet the service was pretty much serve yourself. However, the wait staff were helpful and nice. The red interior is clean, lit well and bathrooms were clean. There is ample parking in the back.

Had a great experience the other night at th Ramadan Special Iftar Buffet hosted by Jerusalem Mediterranean Restaurant.The buffet began promptly at sundaown and there were just so many dishes to try! Highlighting the meal was the whole roasted lamb, and the Koshari. Delicious!The lamb was a tender slow-roasted perfection, where even the lamb belly was a melty collagen experience. Like a good pot-roast, but better and with lamb. The Koshari was something I had never tried and was a flavorful spicy mix of rice, macaroni eggplant and spices. I can imagine it to be a good comfort food.My wife raved about the Roasted Eggplant with Walnut and enjoyed the chicken soup,and fried tilapia. The Chocolate Baklava and Om Ali were a sweet ending to the meal. I like the rice pudding too!The Iftar Buffet is a good showcase try out many of their fine dishes.One of my co-workers told me he had an event catered from here as well. He had a whole roasted lamb that served his family and guests for a reasonable price.VIDEO:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q2nXtnvctmE

My picky friend and I revisited Jerusalem restaurant last night. We were once again impressed with the expertly prepared dishes: the lamb dishes, appetizer and dessert were utterly delicious. And this place has such beautiful décor, perfect for a date or family gathering. Highly recommended.

This is always a pleasant experience. For starters, there's enough free parking by the restaurant to not have any concerns. The service is always warm, welcoming, and friendly. The atmosphere is comfortable, casual, and yet semi-upscale. The food is always very good. This time I tried the fatteh chicken, which I've never had before. Very good.

Great food and ambiance. The service is very friendly and attentive. I had M'saka which was the best I've had since The Brown Derby in Shirlington closed decades ago. My husband had Arnabeet (fried cauliflower) with garlic tahini sauce which was amazing. Topped it off with Arabic coffee and basbosa. Amazing.Ample parking behind the restaurant.

Regarding Middle Eastern cuisine, I must remind myself it will vary based on the owner's and chef's ethnic backgrounds. I can not expect the entire region to prepare the same food with the same dose of seasoning; otherwise, what would make it different from one another. After seeing some of the reviews in terms of service, I was conscious about it, so I carried patience. They did take some time to process our order. On the night that we went at the time of our visit only two staff members were taking the orders. Around us, we had less than a handful of families, but they had a bit of larger orders than me and my friend had. Ruba, the young lady who serves amidst all as the evening progressed and started to get busy, carried herself professionally and with a warm smile. She was well-mannered and friendly, and she was very attentive while taking our orders and providing her recommendations. If she is your server, you are in good hands! * When you are at the table, there is a button that you can ring to have one of the servers come to you, in our case, to refill the water. I ordered Fatteh, but they were out of the ingredients, and she could have suggested the other vegetarian option. Still, she quickly jumped in and provided a suggestion with an alteration. I ended up ordering Makloba. As our appetizer, we had halloumi. It was fried to perfection, but it was missing something that I had to remind myself to keep an open mind a bit and not let my bias ruin the appreciation for how it was prepared. The Makoba, the rice tasted deliciously, and at least for me, it melted in my mouth. It had enough flavor and fluff. My only reservation was that it was loaded with carrots more than any other vegetables. I was surprised that I could have tasted the rice, but the overload of carrots for me was a bit too much for my liking. It could have benefitted from other vegetables. The provided sauce helped to enhance a bit of the flavour of the eggplant in the dish without overpowering it. Lastly, we had high expectations regarding the baklava when we ordered the ashtota. They at least delivered without failing in this department. The baklava was well flavoured. The ice cream, sadly, did not stand out too much. We asked what flavour it was as we had difficulty making it out. She confirmed it was pistachio. I have tried pistachio flavour ice cream before with pistachio nuts. In this ice cream, the flavour of the nuts was barely noticeable.One last thing, as we were finishing, it began getting crowded. We saw a lot of families, and most were wearing their Palestinian pride on their sleeves. It was nice to see their community supporting this Palestinian restaurant. Overall, this restaurant is decent and is worth a try and visit. I may come back to try their falafels instead of their entrees. The ambiance of the place is suited well for families and friends. The music playing is enjoyable without overwhelming you too much. Also, around the restaurants, you will see a lot of prominent Palestinian figures that is worth checking several of them out and seeing their contribution not just in their country but around the world.Trust me, there are worse options out there. Give them a try. For me, it was okay and good enough to satisfy my hunger.

Stopped for lunch with a friend today. We shared the fatoush salad and the appetizer plate, both delicious, along with the basket of pita and a pot of Jerusalem tea. The server was gracious and friendly, and with the wonderful decor, we had a great experience. I'm looking forward to coming back for their weekend buffet!

My partner and I recently dined at Jerusalem. He has Palestinian and Lebanese roots and wanted to support this local restaurant. We were beyond pleased from the moment we walked in the door. The decor pays homage to the Palestinian culture and key people who have worked tirelessly for the liberation and recognition of the Palestinian people. The food was excellent! We ordered the vegetarian appetizer which covered several bases to include a really good hummus and spinach fatayer. My favorite part of our meal was the lentil soup! It was warm and comforting. Something I'd want when I'm not feeling great. We then split the Lamb Fatteh. The lamb was tender, the yogurt tangy, and the pomegranate seeds balanced everything out. We had other dishes but these were the standouts for us! We took Kinafa home with us and the syrup was packaged separately so we could reheat the dessert in the oven! So good! We can't wait to go back for dinner and take our friends with us so they can experience the hospitality, culture, and food of Palestine.
