Jerusalem Cafe - Lombard

What s great local find in Lombard. Lots of menu items. Needed more time to make a selection as it's order at counter. Pleasantly surprised when they served use our food at our table. Nice! Great portion size for gyro plate. Enough left over forlunch next day. Very tasty and authentic.

Tough one here The food was really good, especially the beef shawarma...It was incredible to say the least...The chicken shawarma was avg...It was tender, but a bit light on the seasoning...The rice was good and the falafel was on the upper end ofones I've had previously...They charge you for sauce that you might want with your meal...The front counter gave me two 2oz cupsof two different sauces to try out, which were good My issue was cleanliness...If you zoom in on the fountain dispenser youwill see black film where the soda dispenses on all of the flavors ... Underneath the machine looked as if it hadn't beencleaned in quite a while as well...I wondered what the inside of the ice dispenser looked like and the lines for the soda aswell There are other spots that need a deep cleaning as well Everyone I came across, especially at the counter werefriendly and courteous...The pricing for what they offer for their lunch combination special is pretty amazing for the amount offood you are served Once again, good food, good pricing and some detailed cleaning is sorely needed

Delicious food and reasonable prices! It was my first time here and a very enjoyable experience. The owner was very friendly and hospitable. The foods presentation was beautiful too! Lovely spot to eat all around.

Great place to eat the food was soo good especially for the price and the portion was great!! The food tasted fresh and the bread that came with it tasted homemade!! Great customer service so friendly and kind they even gave us complimentary tea whichtasted amazing!!! Highly recommend for anyone who loves Mediterranean food and is in the area!!

Didn 't love as much as I thought I would after seeing all the photos and reviews, but regardless food was OK. This one is a casual Mediterranean cafe that seems to have taken over what might have been a diner at one point. Bright red exterior makes ithard to miss when we drove to find it. Definitely a hole in the wall sort of spot and a bit dated feeling. Plenty of seatingwhen we dropped by on a weekend for an early dinner, yet seemed to be quite the spot take out. In regards to food, we did aseries of entree plates to share between 4 ppl. I personally think it 's deceiving how much food you actually think you 'regetting. I thought we 'd have quite a bit of leftover, but ended up with just a lot of rice pilaf to take home. Meats were on thedry side and rice was a overly oily and had me worried about my stains on my clothes. Anyways, I think the lunch combo specialsmight be the better value here opposed to the full priced entrees. On the plus side, I did enjoy the tabouleh salad and babaghanoush. That 's all I got on this one. 'Til next time, cheers!
