Took my in laws here for the first time today. I have been to the location that used to be at the Pizitz in downtown Bham, but never to this location. The food was amazing! My in laws had never had Jerusalem food before and they didn't know what to expect. I helped guide them as to what to order and they all loved it. Service was fantastic! We will be back.

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 an actual 5 star experience!
I have been vegan for 11 years all in the state of Alabama. Most restaurants could care less about my vegan belly and any available options seem like an afterthought. But not at Eli's!!
First off, as we walked in the door others were coming out with the biggest smiles on their faces (direct effect of happy tummies 😋) and when they saw us looking the menu on the window outside they knew we were first timers...

All goes good and well but beware with placing your order to go. Several times where pita bread is left out. Sucks too when you leave a good tip and only relieve half the damn order.
