Restaurant Jerusalem Prague is one of the best places to enjoy authentic Israeli and Middle Eastern cuisine. We started with the 10 Mezze platter, and it was a true feast of flavors. The highlight was definitely the hummus – the best in Prague, creamy, smooth, and perfectly seasoned.
From the small plates, I highly recommend: Matbucha – a homemade spicy tomato dip full of rich flavor, Baba ghanoush – a smoky eggplant dip topped with pomegranate seeds and fresh coriander, Falafel – five perfectly crispy on the outside and soft inside, some of the best I’ve ever had, Tabbouleh – a refreshing mix of parsley, bulgur, tomatoes, and lemon juice that balanced the meal beautifully.
For the main course, we shared the Grilled Meat Platter for two (Mix Grill) – a delicious combination of juicy beef patties, spicy Moroccan sausages, and perfectly grilled chicken steak. The meat was tender, flavorful, and served with crispy fries and a fresh salad – simply outstanding.
We paired the meal with a glass of good wine, which complemented everything perfectly. The service was warm, professional, and made us feel very welcome.
Jerusalem Prague is the perfect spot for a romantic dinner, a family meal, or a night out with friends. Excellent Israeli cuisine, outstanding flavors, and a cozy atmosphere – highly...
Read moreGreat menu but... Eggs in the shakshuka were either overcooked or undercooked (I don't eat raw egg-white!), the falafel was overcooked like a stone brick. You could build a house with it. It's a shame because there is potential. We mentioned the dry and hard falafel to the staff in the beginning of the meal but the waitress said that it was normal (which wasn't, we eat it a lot) and at the end of the meal when they asked if everything was fine. After the meal the other waiter proposed to take it off the bill but after discussing with the waitress to whom we already told, they didn't. And yes we ate a few but we were with 4 people and I wanted to know if it was just me or not so the others also tasted the balls, concluding that they were abnormally hard and dry. After the meal they didn't even ask if we wanted to drink something or have dessert, it was like she was not happy with us. It was like the falafel balls were baked before and reheated or fried double the time that they should have. The overcooked eggs were in shakshuka that contained meat, the undercooked eggs were in shakshuka without meat (seems like everything was put in the bowl together, meat takes longer to bake, resulting in overcooked eggs?). The soup of the day, the bread, the fresh orange juice and the...
Read moreThe previous Hummus Bar location in the city center was one of my favourite places to visit in Prague. Really loved the decoration, venue, and food there. With the new location, besides being quite far out of the city center now, unfortunately it has lost some of its charme and can’t really shake its hotel lobby feeling to me. The music selection—somewhere between kitschy and sad songs—did not help.
Hummus is still best in town, great falafel as well, and delicious fries—but our mezze trio turned out so and so. We did not enjoy the baba ghanoush, it lacked seasoning and was served pretty much fridge-cold. Also service was friendly but at times rather uncoordinated. The beer keg had to be switched apparently, so we were told after ordering that our beers would be ready in five minutes. No problem there. It the end we only received them after having almost finished our meals already—a heads up would have been nice.
I would have loved to keep my previous 5 star rating but found the experience...
