Poor Service/Mediocre Food.
After hearing a raving review about Jerusalem Restaurant from a friend, we decided to eat there for dinner tonight. Unfortunately, we were
very disappointed with the service and food quality.
The food: Our party of four shared stuffed grape leaves and hummus for the appetizer. The grape leaves were pretty good as was the hummus, but the pita bread was cold and somewhat stale. My chicken gyro entree provided me with tasty chicken, but the yellow rice side (served with each entree) was disappointingly dry.
The service: The poor service was much more dissatisfying than the dry rice and cold pita bread. The waiter never came to our table unless we called him over--we almost felt like a nuisance just making our order. Then, to top the dinner off, we noticed when we got the bill that the teaspoon size tzatziki sauce containers cost us 50 cents a pop. They were so small we kept asking for more of the mini-containers, so when the bill came it added about $6 to the total. I signaled to the waiter to come over. When he did I asked where on the menu did they mention the 50 cent charge for sauce. He looked at me with a blank stare (even though this particular man had flawless English). I tried again saying, "We did not see the 50 cent charge noted anywhere on your menu" So, he just said, "OK"
I couldn't believe his lack of response. I then said, "Well, it would be nice if you told someone next time about this charge because we would not have asked for so much sauce." He again said, "OK"
The $6 is not a big deal, but what bothered us was his complete lack of customer service.

What Are People Talking About. After reading so many good reviews, my daughter finally talked me into going to Jerusalem. What can I say about this place, except for the food was awful and the place was very very dirty. It looked liked this place has not been cleaned since it was first opened. We also had the unfortuniate experience of eating inside. It was about 80 degress outside but it had to be atleast 100 degress inside. Along with the heat there were flies everywhere, you probably would have experienced less flies sitting next to the outside trash can. If you decide to eat at Jerusalem, remember you have been warned. View Less … View More
Oh baby!.
oh sweet jesus, the lamb here is TO DIE FOR. So its a little small and can get crowded. I like it. Adds to the experience. I know the
family that owns the place and I do my best to support the local mom & pops in denver.
Its worth your time and money for sure. tru the Kulage dessert and the hummos & cucumber salad are good too. Vegitarians: this is your spot.. hitt it up cuz the falafel is amazing too.

What happend to J-roo.
Former DU kid here and I used to love this place. Yes its a sore to the eye if you sit down and dine but the food always came out great.
Having moved back to Denver I started going in again and don't know if the management changed but it just ain't the same.
The food is still good if you know what to get. The kebabs are usually dry-stick to gyros. Let the waiter/waitress know ahead that you want the food warm and the pita warm. Gyros is the best in town and the I can eat the rice by itself. Baba ghanough has a nice smoky flavor. Their arabic coffee hits the spot.
Service is so-so, depends what mood the staff is in-excpet for that one gorgeous gal behind the counter who used to work there-petite thing with beautiful dark eyes who always got my order right and did so with a smile. Hell I would dine in and get my butt frozen if she still worked there. lol
