Not very happy this time. Food was good on some items. But service was disappointing! I suggested this place for lunch and to pick up some spices to my coworker. It's been a while since my last visit and I needed more spices. The staff was not friendly AT ALL they looked a Us with judgement and contempt while walking through the store. They never spoke to us but instead spoke over us to others in their native tongue. They were very short when asking for payment. I called ahead to order hummus for my coworker, a falafel sandwich and lentil soup for me. The Hispanic lady that took my order could not speak English very well so I only ordered a few items. The hummus was not made fresh to order like the used to and it had way too much olive oil and paprika, very messy. My falafel sandwich was very dry and hard. But the lentil soup was on point as always! I understand various cultural differences, however we southern Americans expect some courtesies when spending our money especially if I recommend you to someone else. I was embarrassed as the cashier at the grocer looked my coworker up and down with here nose in the air. Not cool lady! I will be back until I find someone else that sells the same items and has your awesome prices. But I will never suggest or invite someone else.

Very good! Fast service! The Flaffel was excellent! It was great value for a low price. I will be back there!

As others have noted your not coming to eat here for the atmosphere. The food however is very good. We have tried a bunch of different things and can't really think of anything that was bad. Just see what hits your fancy and go for it!

Over all- they gave a good amount of food. The flavors were good, however, I did add salt and pepper. I ordered falafel to start- it was almost more of a dumpling than what I'm used to, but good, cheap and came out quickly. For dinner I ordered Shawerma combo (chicken & beef)entree and the Combination entree (shish kabob, kifta & shish taouk). To finish, I had the Arabic coffee (similar to an espresso shot...tiny little cup, very srong with a hint of cardamom I believe) If I'm ever back in Memphis for more than a day, I would consider coming back to this restaurant.

Best Gyros in town... absolutely wonderful and exotic.... mind you, Al Jazeera news is playing in the background, and you can buy a prepared goat's head for cooking -- but political ideology aside, this is a wonderful place with great food --

Wonderful place to dine. It is not a site for the pretentious but for those open to culutre. I tried the peta with humus and the falafel wonderful. I also had the meat trio, also incredible. The baklava was fantastic. It gets 5 stars on fresh taste, phenomenal service, and original culture. If you want a taste of the Middle East, try this fantastic restaurant. Also, I visited the store to the side and bought some Yogurt drink, Ahmad London Tea from Sri Lanka and Hillwa o Morra Coffee from Jordan.

This place is divey and the service is terrible. That said, FALAFEL. Oh, the falafel. This is easily the best falafel I have ever had. It's so perfectly crunchy and spicy and savory. I had the falafel sandwich, and I feel the sandwich itself could be improved upon, but the falafel discs were glorious. We also had the baba ghanoush, which my boyfriend thought was excellent, but I guess I'm just not a huge baba ghanoush person because I found it merely "meh." Bear with me now, because I'm going to tell you the secret to making the best sandwich ever: Step 1: Go to Jerusalem Market and order falafel with that spicy mayonnaise dip, some pita bread, and baklava to go. (Be careful. There is a language barrier.) Step 2: Go home and mix the spicy mayonnaise with another tablespoon of pure mayonnaise. Trust me, it's better. Step 3: Fill your pita bread with the mayo mix, falafel, some feta cheese, lettuce, and tomato. Step 4: Bite into it. Cry, because it's just that good. Step 5: After you've demolished the sandwich, demolish the baklava. This is the kind of falafel one could write sonnets about. So don't let the weird exterior and the tv playing middle eastern soap operas or the oddly placed chandeliers with tacky leather sofas dissuade you. Go here. Do it. NOW!

Went for dinner and was the only table there the entire evening. The flavors were, well, weird. I've eaten a lot of middle eastern food in different cities, Israeli, Jordanian, Lebanon, Iraqi, Iranian, Turkish, Egyptian, and I've never seen anything like the food at this place. The salads were particularly disappointing. Service was sparse. We watched the server/owner/cook chase off a customer because they closed at 7PM (I think), only to have them sent back by the shop owner with someone who forced them to provide them service as we were leaving. Very odd.

Their food are tasty, ample in portions, and the prices are very reasonable. They have daily specials and regular menu. You could not go wrong in choosing any of the entree because they are all awesome. Like any other great restaurants, the food are made from scratch and it takes time but you will be rewarded at the end because you will like it. You might want to call for take out because the place is small, but either way you will like it.

Had the chicken biriyani special...the food was a lot, but the taste was not all that great...price was okay...in general it was okay at the best

This restaurant/grocery is largely hit or miss, depending upon who's in the kitchen doing the cooking. The first time I came here for lunch and had the falafel plate and greek salad, it was delicious. The next few times, not so much. Since Memphis doesn't have a large Middle-Eastern community, its exotic and appreciate it for what it is. If you lower your expectations (and standards) and don't expect fine dining, its not bad.

I'm going to knock this restaurant down from it's 4-star pedestal given my experience tonight. I went into Jerusalem with a friend for dinner. We arrived at 6:30pm. The lone employee looked at us like she had no idea why we would walk in her restaurant at such an awful hour. We awkwardly asked if they were open. She awkwardly responded that they were open, but the kitchen would close at 7:30pm. Um, okay, it's 6:30 so not sure what the big deal is. We stayed despite the obvious suggestion to not stay. Jerusalem was out of the one item I really wanted which was an offal plate. If you don't know what offal is, look it up. You'll probably throw up, but I am an adventurous foodie and recognize the benefits of non-muscle meats. I digress. The food was average at best. Nothing special. Don't ask to substitute anything. You may cause a cosmic meltdown. Both Greek markets I've been to in Memphis were low on service which drives my rating as much as anything. Perhaps there is a cultural disconnect, I don't know. Despite the poor service, I hope to return to Jerusalem. I know other people like it, and I am enamored with any restaurant that serves offal. A round two review is in the future.

The real deal! I've tried most of the Middle Eastern restaurants in Memphis & this is the most authentic & offers the best variety of food. You'll usually hear a few other languages being spoken because a lot of the customers are from the Middle East. It is not fancy & attached to a grocery store but the food is great. The owners are really nice & are great with kids. They put a bit of spicy sauce in the middle of many of the dishes so ask them to hold it if you don't like spicy food.

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.

don't come here expecting 5 star dining. i've always come here for lunch and nothing more than a few groceries. most of their menu items are great and very reasonably priced. some items i wouldn't recommend, such as the baba ghanoush and lentil soup, which always seem to be leftovers that are reheated. the hummus is always fresh and the pita bread is always heated to order. their falafel is excellent. i would definitely recommend for lunch.
