| - I'm Impressed! Fantastic Kufta Wrap! Lentil Soup, Tabbouleh, Stuffed Grape leaves, Baklava and Turkish Coffee! That is what I had Today on my first visit!
This Wrap was the Best "Middle Eastern" style Wrap I have eaten in decades! Here is why I like this one so much: 1.) OVERALL FLAVOR! 2.) The Meat was cooked to order - I was kind of watching him cook it - He said "is Medium good?" I said "yes" 3.) The Bread was something Fantastically Special, Beautiful, Fresh, Great Flavor and texture. 4.) Jerusalem "Salad" was the Topping - I have never had a topping like this for a Wrap and look forward to ordering Jerusalem Salad as a Salad (on a plate) next time! 5.) Tahini Sauce compliments dishes nicely when it is not overwhelming the dish - This was the first time I have ever been served Tahini in ideal ratio (thanks Mars) to the other food that made it a perfect compliment 6.) The Pickled Vegetables were on the side - YES - I like the vegetables and I like them better Outside the Wrap. 7.) It is wrapped in Bread then wrapped in foil so it is harder to spill and in case I do not clean my hands. This Wrap gets so close to 5 yelp stars I'll call it five!
Lentil Soup! Here is a dish I usually order anywhere that serves it! This one is Good! If you are a fan of mild, this is a mild one, similar to most places - I prefer more spice, though few Mediterranean places serve it spicy!
Stuffed Grape Leaves are not usually something I order and since they were handing them out to everyone I was happy to taste and see what I though of these and GLAD I did! These were the ONLY Stuffed Grape Leaves that I enjoyed! Very Good!
Tabbouleh is one of my favorite dishes! This is a VERY Good one! Looks and tastes made-to-order the way it is supposed to be!
Baklava made the way I like it - DRY! ! ! Many Greek recipes call for Honey or Syrup and many times the end result is a piece of Baklava dripping wet! At Jerusalem Cafe they have a style closer to a Lebanese version with Pistachios piled in the center of many thin layers of Dough, little or no butter and little to no honey, nor syrup - If you are a fan of Baklava check this one out you may love it like I do!
Turkish Coffee! Yes they have Turkish Coffee and this is a Great one, an Easy 5 yelp stars! After drinking about half of one serving (small mug - about Espresso size) I'm glad for spell checj because I can not spell anythinj for hours after something like this, Turkish Coffee! I'm surprised I could drive! As with most places they do NOT serve it sweet... I asked for Sugar and my server who speaks perfect English (with a perfect American accent) assured me it was sugar - This (whatever it was - I'm assuming Sugar) was incredibly "light" and flaky it was very good and had ZERO aftertaste so it had to be Sugar, right???
If you are a fan of Garlic and Mayonnaise you might go crazy for their thicker than butter side of (I do not know the name of it - if it has a name) too thick to be a sauce made with Egg and Oil and garlic - I do NOT like Mayonnaise, still thought this was something special and could be a cure for Vampireism!
Small Restaurants are a favorite of mine. This place has about 26 seats (indoors)! They were doing plenty of take-out orders while I was here today and plenty of Dine-in as well, the weather is perfect and some were eating outside too!
The entire staff, Both Owners (two Guys) and two ladies were all very friendly! Each one spoke to me as I entered and approached the counter! As long as one person speaks to me that is fine, when everyone here is that friendly I really feel welcome. Both Owners speak English well, one has very little accent and they invite questions about their food and are glad to make suggestions!
I have been waiting for this place to open and it was worth the wait! I stopped by Sunday night to see if there was a sign of when the place would be opened (the sign was they were having a friends and family night, so I knew it would be soon)!
