Heart of Jerusalem Restaurant

I’ve been really curious about their food so I picked it up to try. It was okay! It wasn’t very flavorful and the falafel was a bit dry and dense. The grape leaves were very good, but came with a sauce on the side that wasn’t vegan (probably tzatziki). There are better places for falafel around the city, but I don’t regret giving it a try!

Great food, would come back again for sure. I had the chicken platter and the green mint sauce was fantastic! Comes on either lettuce or rice, I got the rice and it was very good. Really enjoyed the little heart shaped falafels too!

Normally just get take out here but the food is delicious. The staff is so friendly. Their baba ganoush is smoky and delicious. I could eat it on everything. The shwarma is so flavorful and has great texture. This is a much try if you are craving a gyro.

Heart of Jerusalem is my favorite place to enjoy a delicious homemade authentic middle eastern meal, and relax with a cup of fresh hot Sage Tea from Jerusalem. And I always finish my meal with Mike’s homemade baklava, it’s the absolute best that I’ve ever tasted! Treat yourself, family and friends to Heart of Jerusalem and you’ll become a regular as well!

Incredible. 10/ 10 best gyro in my life and I don’t even like gyros.

Had the pleasure to sit in and dine. First I’ll start that the tables were clean and there was even hand sanitizer at the table we sat in. It was seat yourself, but we were greeted at the door. I ordered the Jerusalem Salad a nicely added blend lamb/chicken Shawarma. I never subtract from places for off script fusion. I love the cultural blends that come with cuisines. Our order of falafel was of Israeli fusion with herb and spices! I thoroughly enjoyed our late lunch and would recommend to anyone looking for a refreshing meal with a side חומוס (hummus) 😊.

What an unexpected gem! We stumbled upon Heart of Jerusalem right after stepping out of our massage session at Hand & Stone.. and what a find it was! The food was absolutely amazing. We ordered the veggie plate (since we eat veg on Thursdays) with falafel, dolmas, tzatziki, hummus, and tabbouleh salad.. each bite was fresh and flavorful.

For dessert, we had the baklava and kunafeh.. both were heavenly and the perfect sweet ending. We also had a lovely chat with the man running the place..from Jerusalem himself.

The owner of this chain opened the first restaurant in Colorado Springs 17 years ago..We will definitely be back to try the non-veg options next time. Highly recommend for authentic Middle Eastern flavors and warm hospitality! He gave us complimentary Turkish coffee in the end.
