Teta Cafe

“Just a simple place with an adorable host. We had small dishes and lentils soup. The falafel balls are divine! It was delicious and you can really feel it's made with love and care, home made! We'll be back for more!”

“Maybe the best falafel I have ever had. That's a big claim, but it was tasty. It was freshly fried upon order. The outside was perfectly crispy and the inside was light and fluffy. The flavor was great! The salads and hummus was also great. The atmosphere was perfect. The staff was friendly.”

“Beautiful hole in the wall restaurant with amazing falafel and hummus! Also tried the sahleb. The family was kind and welcoming. They gave us a yummy custard-filled dessert at the end. Definitely recommend!”

For five generations, this establishment has been frequented by patrons around the world. Situated in a delightful setting, the place offers warm hospitality alongside the preparation of their delectable falafel, made fresh and to perfection. If you're yearning for a unique culinary experience, I highly recommend this venue, which also welcomes visitors on the Sabbath.

This is a little magical place. The decor is home-felt and nostalgic, food is fresh and yummy, and the best part is the owners. You feel their warmth, good nature and authenticity right away. Had my first sahlep here today. It was really good. And do you know that “Teta” means “grandma” in Arabic? If my grandma had a restaurant, I think it would be as lovely as this one!

Absolute gem tucked away in the side streets of Jerusalem, illuminated by fairy lights. Such a lovely lady who runs the cafe, always smiling, prepared us mint tea and hand rolled and cooked falafel right in front of us. I got one falafel pita (which was delicious) but she even put an extra 2 falafels on the side for my mum to try. Beautiful stone interior and pretty patterned tables.

Shared a large falafel/hummus platter, it was perfect for a light lunch outside! Very fresh and delicious, and the waiters were very friendly.

That's the best food - fallafel we have eaten in Jerusalem. Delicious, fresh and the best stuffing ever. The owners Marcel and Mussa the sweetest, nicest people in this little road of Saint Marcus.
