    Solid kabob spot! Came here for a work lunch and was really good. Everyone was happy with their meal, their combos are good and the platters come with lots of food. I got the beef kofta plater. The kofta was solid, but nothing special. The sides are all good.

    Been coming here with my family for 12+ years and it's STELLAR in every way. The shawarmas are so delicious and the platters are always customizable. Whether you eat red, white, or no meat. The falafel is delicious! I would recommend eating inside and looking at the beautiful murals (my favs), and lots of fresh cookies, bread, & hookah for sale. El Servicio de otro mundo. Literalmente son súper atentivos y limpian right after you eat unless you leave a mess and start complaining after about food post-consumption (rude). Si no te gusta- consigue otro lugar y/o open your own! But hey- you can't control your customers, just your service, quality of food, and cleanliness. There is plenty of parking, being located in the corner of a plaza. It is accesible (with plenty of seating options, including booths, softer wooden AND tougher metal based chairs, + outdoor 4 smokers) and homey indoors. They are a multi-lingual team and have been able to bring joy to many happy customers for many years. To me, it's always worth the ride. For all these reasons, I give this spot a 9.5/10 in my book. God bless Alpharetta's Jersusalem Bakery/Grill!

    Jerusalem Bakery has been our family's spot for shawarma for years! Everything is absolutely delicious, and their falafel is probably my favorite in Atlanta. Everyone is always kind and helpful here, especially when you are building your sandwich or deciding what to eat. My go to order is a Mixed (chicken / beef) shawarma wrap and a pita topped with zaatar. This location does get very crowded during peak lunch and dinner time, but absolutely worth the wait.

    --Location/Parking-- Located inside of a strip mall. Plenty of parking --Ambience-- A cross between a bakery with sweets on one side and a fast food restaurant on the other side. Plenty of tables to sit and eat. --Service/Staff-- Staff was friendly and gave recommendations and explaining the different dessert types. --Food/Products-- I stuck with only the pre-made dessert. I plan to go back and try out there hot food at a later time. --Capacity-- Plenty of tables to grab lunch or a quick early bite. --Overall-- Nice bakery/restaurant tucked in all the way in the back of the strip mall. I plan to go back and try their hot food.

    I have tried for the first time. They have bakery section and as well as Restaurant. Tried assorted desserts. Baklava is sooo yummy. They have huge seating. Love the food. Parking is nice. Prices are reasonable.

    Chicken Shawarma Sandwich

    I have been DYING to try this spot! I've heard so many good things. Service was standard but efficient. They answered my questions, which helped me decide on my order, but nothing more and nothing less. First and foremost, this place is so reasonably priced! I ordered a combo, and I was so surprised by how large my sandwich was. For my combo, I got the chicken shwarma sandwich and the tabbouleh salad. The chicken shwarma sandwich was rich in flavors. I got every side and sauce, so every bite was tasty! However, I do wish I got something spicier, but I was told this was their most popular sandwich (understandably so). The tabbouleh salad was extremely refreshing. The olive oil dressing complemented the salad, which went very well with my sandwich wrap. Next time, I'm going to try the spicy chicken kufta kabob. I just really need a stronger kick. I'm also going to try some of their baked goods - I couldn't stop staring at them! They looked so delicious. I can't wait to come again.

    What's not to love when you encounter friendly staff, delicious middle eastern fare, and rows and rows of colorful desserts? JB also has a grocery store attached that has spices, fresh pita bread, and a dessert area with baklava, Turkish delight and other sweets. I ordered the Jerusalem Super Plate which is perfect for two. It came with a fall off the bone lamb shank, chicken and beef kebabs, hummus, baba ghanoush, tabouleh, pita and a tahini salad. I had to resist ordering crispy falafel and the savory meat pies in the display cases near the registers. Anything made with nutty tahini keeps me coming back, and I crave cuisine that involves dipping and scooping up flavorful food with warm and pillowy bread, pita, and naan. My mom taught me not to waste food, and it's easy to leave a clean plate in this place. Highly recommend!

    Sumi K.

    Super good kebabs! Really spicy and flavorful and great portions for the price. I've been going to this place for a while now and the quality is always consistent and good

    Baklava

    If you love Mediterranean food, then definitely stop by! I had gone a few years ago, but decided to stop by with my family since I was craving hummus and baklava. For starters we ordered two plates of hummus and pita bread. The humus was delicious and surprisingly pretty heavy when the four of us finished. For the main meal, we went with the spicy chicken kufta plate and the chicken shawarma plate. Both plates were enough to share with four people. Out of the two, I liked the chicken kufta more because it was much more flavorful and not dry! The chicken shawarma also tasted good. Both came with sides of yogurt salad, baba ganoush, hummus, pita bread and some greens. We finished with baklava which was delicious! It wasn't overly sweet but quite flaky and delicious. We ordered our food at the counter and got it within 10 minutes. I look forward to coming back for the spicy chicken kufta and baklava

    Mixed Shawarma Plate

    I used to come here frequently with church friends on Sunday for lunch. I now pass by here for work and was craving shawarma. I tried to call ahead to order and it took me 3 tries before someone answered the phone. I ordered the mixed shawarma plate (chicken and steak) with a side of hot sauce ($16.99). The parking lot was full on this Sunday late afternoon. There were more people than I expected at around 4:30. I had to stand in line to pay for my food and it wasn't ready yet. I walked around and got some Turkish delights. Make sure you ask for hot sauce again since they forgot mine and you'll have to pack your own silverware. The plate smells delicious. A large pita covered the shawarma and rice with sides of hummus and Tabbouleh salad. I love the chicken more than the stake. The chicken was tender and packed with flavor. The beef was a bit dry and had fatty pieces. I would love if they heated up the pita. But overall, a delicious meal. I will skip the Turkish delights and get the baklava next time. I thought the price were steep ($6.99) for just a handful of pieces.

    Meh. I expected way better. I'm very familiar with this a type of food so I went in with high expectations. Chill deli style atmosphere and easy parking. I got the Chicken Shwarma plate ($16.99) and feta cheese pocket ($3). The chicken was slightly dry, which is something I've rarely experienced with shawarma. Like the hallmark of shawarma is juicy, delicious chicken. The hummus was good, but nothing special. The rice, however, was great with a lovely hint of nutmeg. The feta pocket was good, but it wasn't warmed enough and that took away from the experience. I'd probably try them again but wouldn't go out of my way.

    Mixed schwarma platter.

    First time here Didn't realize it was a counter service restaurant but it was fine Food was fresh and delicious. Plentiful portions. Desserts looked great in the bakery section but we ended up not getting any.

Unfortunately, our excitement quickly faded before we were even seated. When I walked into the restaurant, I was completely ignored by a young blonde employee named Claudia who was standing behind the counter in the waiting area. She looked directly at me and continued what she was doing without so much as a greeting or an acknowledgment. A simple, "Good morning, someone will be right with you," would have gone a long way. Since no one else was in the lobby and I noticed a clipboard on the counter, I politely asked if there was a waitlist. Claudia responded with an attitude that she "wasn't the hostess." I calmly asked where the hostess was, and she simply replied that she was clearing tables. There was no offer to help, no explanation of the process, and no attempt to assist me. She continued interacting with other staff members while I stood there feeling like an inconvenience. Thankfully, another employee who appeared to be a waiter noticed me. He immediately picked up the same clipboard that had been sitting on the counter, took my name and phone number with a cheerful attitude, and let me know it would be about a 15-minute wait. His professionalism completely contrasted with the poor customer service I had just experienced. Once seated, our waiter was personable, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu. The food was also very good. I ordered the Chicken Sausage Scramble with hash browns, and it was delicious. My friend ordered the Catfish and Grits and thoroughly enjoyed her meal as well. The food and our waiter helped redeem the experience, but first impressions matter. Management should ensure that every employee understands that providing basic courtesy and hospitality is everyone's responsibility, not just the hostess's. Even if greeting guests or managing the waitlist wasn't Claudia's primary role, there was no excuse for being dismissive or rude to someone walking through your front door. Alpharetta has no shortage of excellent brunch spots with both great food and outstanding customer service. Sadly, because of the way I was treated before I was even seated, I won't be returning to The Southern Porch. I also won't feel comfortable recommending it to friends or family. It's disappointing because the kitchen and our waiter did their jobs well, but one employee's attitude overshadowed what could have been an otherwise enjoyable brunch.

I would definitely order it again. But the slow and lacking service, continuously having to ask for drinks and various sides multiple times left a sour taste. It was like they didn't care. Again they were not busy so I'm not sure what the problem was. Hopefully it was a one time occurrence and this is not the norm.
