A rooftop dome marks Jerusalem’s Restaurant for all to easily see. Inside, a savory aroma of fried falafel and roasted meat wafts from the kitchen as chefs prepare platters of shawarma, hand-rolled grape leaves, and other Middle Eastern specialties. All dishes are prepared from scratch using recipes that have been passed down through generations. The small dining room is decorated in draped fabrics and tapestries; Metromix called it “utterly charming in a hodgepodge sort of way.” There’s also an outdoor patio where you can dine al fresco in the warmer months.
