I love the people who own the store, and the food feels like I’m eating at my aunties home. Comforting and delicious! Always down to have lunch here, huge portions and good vegetarian options as well as meats.
Jerusalem is an iconic University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign cafe. Delicious, nutritious, well balanced, satiating. A kind and generous host, cook, and server - a one-of-a-kind one man show. Don’t miss out.
Delicious hummus, salad, lentils, eggplant vegetarian lunch platter. Service is slow because only one employee. Can get very busy causing wait, but worth it. Generous servings at reasonable $.

Jerusalem Middle Eastern Cuisine is a hidden gem that serves delicious and healthy meals. The restaurant is run by a single owner who is very straightforward, but the quality and quantity of food are impressive. The lunch special offers great value, including a variety of dishes such as protein, lentils, pita bread, salad, and a soup-like item. The fish lunch special is particularly popular, with one reviewer calling it the best they've ever had. The restaurant is known for its tender and juicy lamb dishes, with spices that add to the flavor. Many customers appreciate the homemade feel of the food, which looks and tastes fresh. The vegetarian lunch platter, especially the falafel, is highly praised. Although there may be a short wait due to only one person working, the experience is worth it for the healthy, filling, and reasonably priced meals. Jerusalem Middle Eastern Cuisine is a must-visit for those who love Middle Eastern food.
