Taste of Jerusalem is the kind of place that reminds you why you should never judge a restaurant by its zip code or its signage. Tucked into a perfectly forgettable strip mall in Plainfield, this little spot is quietly serving some of the best food in the area and I am genuinely annoyed it took me this long to find it. The chicken kabob plate was a revelation. Massive portions of beautifully marinated chicken laid over a split of white rice and spicy rice. That spicy rice deserves its own paragraph. Fragrant, deeply spiced, with a slow building heat that lingers just long enough to keep pulling you back for another bite. Addicting is the only word for it. The hummus was exactly what hummus should be, fresh, delicious, also addictive. I added falafel and pita and those falafel were genuinely among the best I have ever had. Perfectly cooked, not a trace of that greasy heaviness that ruins lesser versions. Just fragrant, spiced, crispy little bites that I genuinely savored. My partner got the chicken wrap and said every component worked together without competing, tasted fresh, and left him full without feeling heavy. High praise from a man who knows his way around a wrap. The space is clean and simple. You order from a kiosk. None of that matters because the husband and wife team running the grill are pouring obvious passion into every plate and it comes through in every single bite. Plainfield has a gem here. Treat it accordingly.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND!…read more Not only was the food delicious but the service was exceptional. My husband and I both had the steak souvlaki cooked perfectly and was delicious! My children had the gyro with Greek fries, all 3 of my sons finished all their food and said they want to go back again tomorrow! The owner and general manager talked to us, made us feel comfortable and they were so kind. All the staff was kind and professional. The restaurant was clean. We also had their rice pudding and it was great! Do yourself a favor and order some food and enjoy!

That never happened at Covo. The flavor of the chicken was good (although I asked for chicken gyro which she said they had, not sure if they do or don't since I was given grilled chicken) but the falafel was rough. They were small and had a chemical taste... super sad. Hopefully they can make some improvements but for now I'll be skipping here.

You can really tell they take pride in the quality of their food. The service was just as impressive. Everyone was warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming, making the entire experience even better. It's rare to find a restaurant that excels at both amazing food and exceptional hospitality, but Shree absolutely delivers. If you're looking for fresh, authentic Indian food with outstanding service, this is the place. I can't wait to come back and try more from the menu. Highly recommend!

Shree is hidden in a strip mall that's hard to make a turn into from the busy street. Got a pretty big menu. The bad thing is it's too expensive for quality and quantity. Found out they have a buffet. It's on weekdays at lunch. The selection was pretty paltry but we thought it would be all for a great price. About half of it was meaty. The other half had things for vegetarians. It's about $20 for the buffet. We were shocked by the price. It was certainly not worth it. They were taking forever refilling water. A spicy plate of food has to have it available. They were also late getting us bread until we had finished a few plates. Great thing is it's the best Indian restaurant in town to be honest. It's because this is the only one. There's a lot for vegans and vegetarians.

The best thing about this place is that staff (chef and owner) are very, very sweet and kind. And…read morethey are friendly and easy to talk with. It's like eating at your family's home. It's not at all salty or oily so it will be healthy for you. Plenty of parking. Lunch specials $10.95 are amazing deals so we enjoyed that today and the Thai Iced tea and peach tea was very good as well. For the lunch special, You get a spring roll or cucumber salad. Both are vegetarian. And you also get a soup of either wonton or sweet-and-sour. The wonton soup has pork in the dumplings and the sweet-and-sour is vegetarian. For the most special you really can't beat that price for all the food that you get. We are very thankful.

I order the eggrolls for an appetizer. They tasted OK by the upside is they only cost $1 each. Yes $1. For my main entree I ordered Pad Ki Mao. I got it just a little spicy. Great flavor, enough kick to almost make you sniff, so just right where it's enjoyable for me. I also ordered a mango smoothie no tapioca. It was OK not very sweet, I think they might use real fruit. I would go back and I think you should give them a try also.
