We were happy with the quality of the food, the service, the selection, and the price. We will return if we come back to the area again.

We'd been here several years ago and weren't overly impressed. Back then the food was bland and under cooked. Management must've changed hands or perhaps they hired a new cook or both because we had dinner there a few nights ago and were pleasantly surprised by how tasty everything was -- from the appetizers that consisted of Tabouleh, Hummus and...

Great value and food. These guys are staples in Mobile and worth the visit if you haven't tried them yet.

Jerusalem Cafe is consistently the most delicious ethnic food I have tasted. The hummus is delicious. I usually order the Dill Chicken Sandwich but the Moussaka and Chicken dishes are also excellent. The tabouli is great and the atmosphere is quaint. The owner is extremely friendly and visits the guests regularly. This is our family's favorite spot!

It's fine...lots of good lamb dishes, middle eastern, arabic type food, humus, etc. There is a Arabic store in the back of the restaurant too. This place has been around for a while. Its a small restaurant right behind a synagogue on Airport Blvd.

Don't be put off by the exterior appearance - in a strip mall. A friend and I went on Sunday, not realizing they only have a buffet (which I am not a fan of), but we sat down and proceeded to then fill our plates with hummus, tabouli, babba ganoush, lamb shank, grilled vegetables, dolmades, rice, kofta, chicken curry, yogurt/garlic...

My first visit was for supper tonight and it was excellent. I had Kifta Kabob, a ground beef mixed with onions, parsley and spices then grilled. It is presented shaped like a wiener. Herb spiced rice and sautéed squashes accompany. I have been on the road for two weeks eating all meals out and this was one of the best.... More

We go to Mobile frequently, and have tried several other restaurants rated highly on tripadvisor. I normally am leery of restaurants tucked into strip malls, but this one was so highly recommended I had to give it a try. Wonderful! Their food has fantastic, authentic herbs and spices, and that citrus salad dressing on the greek salad is something I... More
