“ If you like middle eastern food, I highly recommend this place. Food came out quickly and was delicious. Generous portion size, will be having the rest for lunch tomorrow. Amazing staff, great service and the owner was welcoming and friendly. Cozy atmosphere. ”
“ Absolutely phenomenal service, quality of food is always fast and fresh. Clean interior and friendly staff make this HOJ location my favorite. Be prepared to take food home as the serving sizes are massive. The falafel is fried to perfection and is easily cut into smaller pieces by a fork. It is also shaped like a heart which is adorable. The crispura fries are great for large parties as it is a MASSIVE plate of fries that are delectable dipped into their hummus, baba ghanoush, tzatziki, etc. You can tell they take pride in their food and it is great to see a wonderful family-run business like this thrive. Try the sage tea (: ”
“ Very good spot. Came here for lunch for my birthday, and really enjoyed my meal. The atmosphere isn't anything special but I am not there for atmosphere. The service from the staff was attentive, and the food came out quick. The food was really delicious and was a very generous portion. I really e joyed this place and would definitely be back. ”
“ Food is amazing as always. Owner is very kind, we forgot to check what time Heart of Jerusalem closes and showed up 15mins before closing. He and his staff were happy to seat us and we were finished eating by the time they closed. Will keep coming over and over when in town visiting family! ”
“ The food was incredible! We just so happend to come across this place on our way to elsewhere. There were four of us, and we each ordered a different dish thinking they were single servings — but the portions were huge, and we couldn’t come close to finishing everything. The chicken kebabs were especially good — perfectly cooked and packed with flavor. I highly recommend the falafels; they were absolutely delicious and ended up being my lunch for the day. We also tried the Turkish coffee, but it wasn’t really to our taste — very strong and not as sweet as we expected. The women who served us were incredibly kind and welcoming. ”
“ We had the half and half appetizer, the ultimate plate, and the chicken sandwich combo with fries and baklava. Everything was delicious, the meat was very tender and the falafel that is made in house was very light and didn't taste fried at all. The pita bread was also delicious. Everything tasted good, and I highly recommend this place to anyone in the area ”
“ My wife and I love this place! Every time we come here we have an amazing time. My father is here visiting from California and we made sure he experienced Heart of Jerusalem.

This place is TOP NOTCH!! 5 Stars well deserved!!! ”
