The ambience here whispers calmness and quietude. This is the kind of place where you can chow down on amazing grub and actually have a conversation without blasting your eardrums with music!
Credit where credit’s due- my husband, the Dora of the culinary world, unearthed this gem. We snagged some takeout to feast in the comfort of our home. But let me tell you, the intoxicating scent of the food made the journey back an odyssey of self-control.
We got the combo for two and oh my, the portions were epic. Now let’s talk about the hummus situation- their hummus is on another level- the kind that has me contemplating a 24/7 hummus diet. It’s that addictive.
Cheers to discovering this gastronomic nirvana!

We were looking for a new experience and after having a great experience eating Israeli inspired dishes during recent travel, were looking to experience more from Israel. We were able to find vegan options, but overall found the food a bit underwhelming. The place was also noisy as it seems the decor is not absorbing sounds. As we were leaving we discussed what would have made a better experience. One thing we concluded was that the lights were really bright. Perhaps dimming a little bit can create more of an atmosphere.

Okay, I just HAVE to rave about this place. Their food was SO GOOD. SO flavourful and most of all, SO worth the price. Truly! My friend and I got the dinner for two with the chicken, beef, and kofta. And my goodness was it worth it. The portion sizes were generous and they don't skimp out. The baba ganoush and hummus with pitas and falafel/tahini + pickled items came first and it was heavenly. I was afraid I was starting to get full because again, the portion sizes were huge! Then the mains came with the eggplant, tabouleh, rice, and skewers ... The meat was tender. Rice was fresh. The aromas of the flavours, oh my goodness, I can't wait to return lol. And honestly, the best part after.... THE BILL. For $55, split in two plus our drinks... I really feel I scored a jackpot here! I'd highly recommend :) PS. Low quality pics because I took bites first lol

I came here with my mother as we usually do to celebrate some occasions.
She ordered her favorite liver skewer and i got a chiken skewer. We also got a falafel plate and sauteed tomatoes. Everything was delicious as always!
The place itself is very cosy and clean. The staff is friendly and proffesional.

Loved all of the food here. We had the combo for two which included tabouli, hummus, baba ganoush, falafel, garlic eggplants, skewers and salad. Everything was amazing. I can’t say one critical thing about any of the dishes. Flavour was impeccable! Can’t wait to come back and bring friends. Glad to have a place like this close by - authentic Palestinian food!

I’ve been coming to Jerusalem for as long as I remember. Whether it was to celebrate birthdays, celebrate Easter or just to have a dinner with the family. The food has always been delicious. Sometimes the tabouli is missing some lemon, but overall it’s good. The falafel here is probably my favourite and the fried eggplant. The dinner for two is such a good deal and there’s a lot of food. You definitely get your moneys worth. Sometimes service is a bit a slow, but overall the servers are very nice.

Food was good. We tried the Taste of Jerusalem dinner for two. Had yummy eggplant, hummus, baba ganoush. The chicken and lamb skewers were good as well. The dinner for two could really be a dinner for 2 and a child.
Good service. Good atmosphere.

The menu you see now has actually increased in price. The dinner for two was $50 now its $54. A glass of wine was $14
Total all in with tax and 15% tips was about $80. A bit pricey. But gotta try it at least once.

This restaurant is now on my list of favorites in Toronto.
Clean and calm, with classical music in the background. The decor is pretty and simple, which is a charm. As
We ordered the plate for two and we had enough, the plates were big and everything was delicious. We also tried a different beer, I recommend it.
My experience was 100% positive. I will definitely come back, and for sure very hungry.
