A well-known place since it's in a highly visible spot in the main tourist area. Food was alright but nothing special. Service was very ordinary. More

Having travelled round South East Asia on rice and vegetables for months, Jerusalem Falafel was a refreshing change. We ate with Israelis (who should know their falafel from their kofta) and we all agreed the Falafel was great. The portions were big and we left contented. Lovely owners too. More

Having eaten in Jerusalem and Nazareth I was really hoping to find authentic middle Eastern food. It was not good. We only went the one time and never went back again. More

Was not impressed with the food, the owner was a really nice Thai fellow, very friendly .. but maybe he would do better cooking Thai food? More

The food is OK for a change, but tends to be very high in fat and starch. With it's convenient central location, it's hard to avoid. More

A long established restaurant situated right on the moat in the centre of Chiang Mai. Not Israeli food, as one might expect, but a wide range of food from across the middle east. Wonderful fresh, herb-scented salads, home made breads, BBQ shashliks, garlicky dips .... all perfectly cooked, and nicely presented. Prices are extremely reasonable for food and drinks. More

The food is excellent. Order the mese platter with a lamb kofta and go to heaven. Many people are turned off by the service; just try not to take 8 minutes to decide and ask really dumb questions about the food and you'll be fine. Baklava. Shalom. More

The original Israeli restaurant in Chiang mai is still the best I've had. They have a wide variety of fresh foods, they bake their own pita, and everything is fresh and authentic tasting. More
