The owner and staff are also commended for their friendly and welcoming demeanor. Despite some mixed reviews, Old Jerusalem seems to have its fair share of loyal customers who appreciate the authentic Middle Eastern cuisine and the family atmosphere of the restaurant.

If there is less than a star rating then this place surly deserves it. I had my share of middle Eastern food to know when it is good and when it is bad. This place still cant make it ti bad!!! I gor some kunafeh, hareesa and baklava, just dessert that the owner just promised it is fresh. Got home tried a bite of each, they used old old oil, may be after the frying that oil becomes the for desert but it has a strong taste that made me throw up tge minute I bit on it. Horrible. Over charge is one thing but selling you this garbage is a different dimension of bad restaurants! Service: Takeaway Meal type: Other Food: 1 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 1
