Reviews for Jerusalem Cafe in Vancouver, WA
Super disappointed as well. Not at all impressed and I am sad about it. Tried twice and both times disappointed and they have... so much potential. The dishes/entree are just not impressive for the cost, and basically very low key and nothing to writehome about. Kabobs are just... meh. Small-ish, and rice lacking any flavors except mildly yellow, and comes with a few bitesof greens and 1 spoonful of cheese served in a small plastic cup. After two earnest tries despite they are friendly and havegreat intentions... it's just not worth the time and money. It's really sad. I really want this restaurant to thrive... but itwill be quite unlikely. Read more
My husband, roommate and I literally love this place! We used to get food here every other month but recently we've been getting... it delivered often. The samosas are a household favorite here and I personally love the sharwarma ! So yummy Read more
4 1/2 stars. I stopped in for lunch on a weekday and ordered a few vegetarian appetizers - the Labeneh, Grape Leaves (dolmas),... and Samosa. Portions are good size so I had leftovers from all for dinner, and service was quick and friendly. The Samosafilling was very good and had just a bit of a spice kick. The Grape Leaves are served warm, which is unusual for restaurants, Ifind, and were also very good as cold leftovers. I really enjoyed the Lebeneh as well - great for dipping the samosas and dolmasas I preferred it to their dipping sauce. I was disappointed with the pita bread, though, which was very dry and had littleflavor or texture. This a good stop for vegetarian fare. I would definitely eat here again and hope for better pita.

I am super disappointed. I have been going to Jerusalem Cafe on and off since 2008. I recently placed an online order and had it... delivered. This is what I recieved for about $27. The food was too salty and there were no sides, such as the hummus, potatosalads and other clean tasty cabbage salads that used to come with a meal. I'm not sure if ownership has changed or if they arejust cutting corners but I won't be ordering from here again. Read more
We had a delightful dinner here. The food was gorgeous and plentiful so we had enough to take home for a whole nother meal.... Everything was delicious! Read more
We enjoyed the hummus, samosas and garlic chicken. The portions were generous and the server pleasant and attentive. The rice... was a little dry and I would have liked it with more salt. My husband and I split the dinner and we both had food leftover. Read more
I haven't had too much Mediterranean food in my life, but I've heard great things about Jerusalem Café and really wanted to... give it a try with my mother. The restaurant setting was very casual, but with a calm and underwhelming atmosphere. The womanwho served us was super sweet and got us our food surprisingly quickly. I found the pita bread to be addictive, cookedperfectly. The lentil soup wasn't my favorite, but I'm generally not a big fan of lentils and that is the reason why. I wouldstill recommend trying it. I had the garlic chicken and really liked it. Full of flavor, and I loved the large amount of parsleygarnishing it. I also found the side of rice to be delicious. I got a couple of baklavas for dessert and they were verysatisfying. Read more
Everything on the menu looked fire, tried the Chicken On Fire and was happy ???? and then I tried the hummus and was in heaven.
