In Short
Though a bit of an oddball along this trendy strip, Old Jerusalem is a welcome oasis for vegetarians and those looking for a less expensive dining option. The Middle Eastern menu sticks to the tried-and-true without a lot of fuss: hummus, falafel, shawarma (meat cooked with lemon, garlic and mustard), baklava and other specialties.
