We were so excited to finally eat at this restaurant that we went with 12 people and had a great seat by the bar. The inside of this restaurant has some of the coolest brightest decorations that you'll ever find just walking through the door. My husband and I split the hummus and grape leaves appetizers as well as a dinner that had chicken thighs and rice. I really liked all of the food, but some of the spices were a little different than what I'm used to. The star of the night, though, was the bread that came out with the hummus... It was so delicious!

Open, clean, airy restaurant with opulent lighting and extensive menu. We were a large party that arrived staggered, but our server was very attentive to everyone. All the food looked good, and was fresh, but most items were underseasoned. A solid 3.5 but rounded up to 4 stars for the clean environment and stellar service.

Inside

After a week of barbecued pork, I was craving something fresh, and Jerusalem Mediterranean Restaurant & Bar was the perfect palate cleanser. This Travelers' Choice winner is a garish escape that transports you straight to (some version) of Morocco the moment you step inside. The glitzy and quasi psychedelic atmosphere is anchored by a massive mosaic glass lamp chandelier--a true centerpiece that sets a Grateful Dead meets Middle East tone for the evening. What We Ordered: Mediterranean Sampler An essential starter. The hummus was silky, the tahini perfectly balanced, and the baba ganoush smoky and rich. It comes with three small pieces of crisp, herb-packed falafel and warm, fluffy pita. The "Jerusalem Experience for Two" This is a massive feast loaded with tender kebabs, French fries, lamb chops, juicy shawarma, and succulent chicken . The energy is vibrant, supported by a staff that are well intended and pleasant. I recommend this restaurant for a fun night, good food and reasonable prices.

Pretty bar area

Beautiful restaurant with great live music. Our server was very friendly and helpful with our choices. The hummus and breads were delicious as was the skewers of chicken.

For my fiancée's birthday, I wanted to take her somewhere that felt truly special -- not just dinner, but an experience. After doing a lot of research, I decided on Jerusalem Mediterranean Restaurant & Bar, and it was absolutely the right call. We arrived around 8 p.m. on a Sunday, and with the restaurant closing at nine, we ended up being the only guests there. Instead of feeling awkward, it made the evening feel intimate, like I'd rented out the whole place just for her. The hostess and server were both warm, attentive, and genuinely friendly. We sat at the bar, which felt more like a cozy dining table thanks to the open, spacious layout. We ordered the Jerusalem Experience for Two, which truly lives up to its name -- a feast that lets you sample all their best dishes at once. The platter came overflowing with flavorful favorites: tender kebabs grilled perfectly, juicy shawarma with rich spices, skewers of baby chicken and chicken shish tawook that were smoky and succulent, creamy baba ganoush, smooth tahini, and velvety hummus that was among the best I've had. The falafel had a crisp outer shell and a warm, herb-packed interior, the dolmas added a nice tang, and the homemade fries and yellow rice completed the meal beautifully. Every bite felt intentional and layered -- from the char on the meats to the freshness of Max's Mediterranean salad. I ordered a POM & FIG Martini -- Feigling Fig Vodka, 100% pomegranate juice, and sweet vermouth -- and it was an instant hit. My fiancée, who wasn't planning to drink, took one sip and ended up keeping mine, so I had to order another. Sweet, slightly tart, and perfectly balanced. For dessert, I couldn't resist my Mediterranean favorite: Baklava. At $9, it was flaky, syrupy, and everything I hoped it would be -- the perfect finish to an already incredible meal. Beyond the food, this restaurant also offers some great photo ops thanks to its vibrant and beautifully designed décor. We unfortunately ran short on time and didn't get to take any pictures, but the space itself adds to the entire dining experience. Our total came to about $130 with tip, and it was worth every cent. Between the exceptional food, service, and atmosphere, this was the perfect way to celebrate her birthday. If you're looking for authentic Mediterranean cuisine in a romantic and relaxed setting, Jerusalem Mediterranean Restaurant & Bar should absolutely be on your list.

I can not express how much we enjoyed our experience. Our waiter was very knowledgeable and didn't stir us wrong. The food was amazing. We will definitely be back.

Mediterranean Sampler

My wife and I went for an early Valentine's dinner and man this place did not disappoint. As soon as we walked in the decor was very Middle Eastern and extremely colorful and my wife fell in love with all the lamps. We ordered the Mediterranean sampler for two which came with a huge variety of different kabobs meats and also tahini hummus's and different breads. Would highly recommend to anyone! Also shout out to Ryan our server. He was on point!

Shawarma pita lunch special
Kelly R.

It was our first time here today and we had a really nice lunch. The menu had lots of great options that we decided to try the lunch specials. There were quite a few to choose from, but we both had the chicken Shawarma pita sandwiches which came with fries. They were packed full of delicious Shawarma meat, hummus, tahini, and Mediterranean salad. The spicy sauce is a must try. We would definitely come back and try some of the plates and the appetizers. The food came out promptly, was hot and fresh, and the service was great. The portions are also quite generous. The restaurant has really pretty decor and a huge, beautiful chandelier over the Bar has shown in my picture.

Mediterranean Sampler and Mediterranean Salad, Pita

We were there on Friday night and it was busy but not overcrowded. The place was very quiet, clean and the atmosphere was great. The food was delicious. I eat plant based and there were many options for me to choose from. There were labeled vegan and vegetarian options. Would definitely recommend on your beach trip.

Jerusalem Mediterranean Restaurant blew us away this weekend with their gorgeous restaurant, incredible belly dancer, and flavorful Mediterranean dishes! A must visit if you're looking for something unique.

Wasn't impressed when we got there. Food came out too fast. The lamb patties were very hard. Otherwise, we had a good dinner.

I think this might be my favorite restaurant it's so good it's worth the money. 2 people is 70$read more

Molly was our server, & she was Amazing! I have never seen a server shell out drinks and so much…read morefood so quickly. She was pleasant and patient, considering we had three teenagers at the table with one of them ordering like 5-6 sodas (to my dismay and horror lmao). She joked she should get one of our kids a pitcher. We had the fried chicken, the fried pork chop, chicken dumplings, and the BBQ ribs. Our favorite were the ribs. The sides were a hit. We got the fried okra, the mashed potatoes, the mac and cheese, green beans and fries. For the additional side it is $2.99 a person. Honestly, I felt the sides were so tasty & better than some of the meat dishes. The fried pork chop and the chicken and dumplings were not a hit at our table, but we did devour the fried chicken and get an extra order of ribs. We had no idea that this was a bottomless refill, but I don't know how anyone orders more than one extra entree because the portions are huge and quite filling. We were lucky to get a table close to the window so we could have a nice view. All of the workers were courteous & kind. If you are super hungry & have a larger party, you have to come here at least once, while visiting Broadway at the Beach. They also brought out biscuits to our table while waiting for our food, and those are hefty and warm. Hooray for another good Southern eatery during our visit to Myrtle Beach.
