Their Arabic coffee doesn't taste authentic and it taste more American coffee finely ground. I also tried their Biscoff kenafeh and it was so terrible, very dry and didn't come out as one piece and had very weird taste, probably old.

I'll combine the Roastery and Store locations in this review... after visiting the Shawarma House three doors down we felt like having something sweet and coffee. We asked how to combine eating knafeh and other delicious food with our coffee and were suggested to buy them first at the bakery and store next door. Mohamad was very helpful in guiding us around the bulk items (excellent Turkish Delight among others) and we were lucky to get the remaining knafeh. Our Sada Coffee was full of flavor and a good match with the knafeh... I tried one of the Turkish Delight and that one worked well. 8/10. Pro tip? Come in at around 5 or 6pm when many of the items are still available, including the ice cream. Coffee place is small, the tables and chairs are super practical but small to fit all the goodies. Nice service as well.

Knafeh

Their knafeh was really yummy and I even found my fave other favorite treat sold in their store. Very clean and organized place! The guy was also super helpful. Thank you for your knafeh once again !

Dubai Chocolate
Liz N.

Beautiful and culturally rich shop! They have such a great variety of candy, nuts, pastries that I'll definitely need to get next time I come. The Dubai chocolate was INCREDIBLE. Perfectly crunchy and so decadent! It's definitely worth every single penny. 10/10!!! Workers are very friendly and helpful! Can't wait to come back!

This is so good you're gonna love this

The best Dubai chocolate in town Absolutely amazing quality and flavor with so many unique treats and products from Palestine . They have cups for tea and refreshing teas, and now a brand new coffee shop right next door The ambience is relaxed and inviting and the owner is one of the nicest people you'll ever meet. A must visit spot in Garden Grove If you're looking for pistachio cream, they have it. They have all the stuff for you to make some Dubai chocolate yourself. Lots of different brand Dubai chocolates also chocolate bars, and lots of cool teas and dried herbs

Jerusalem Roastery (JR) is located in a small shopping center next to Shawarma House. I *highly* recommend lunch or dinner there, then dessert with Arabic coffee or mint tea next door at JR. When they first opened, I remember asking if they also served coffee and, then, that wasn't a thing. Today, you can grab some Turkish delights or baklava then go next door to their cafe to enjoy it with a drink. Parking is ample, they also have tons of roasted seeds and nuts, as well as bins of candy and other goodies. They have a wee bit of work to do on really making the cafe what it can be, but it's in its infancy, so I'm also being thoughtful about that. I didnt deduct a point because they listened to customers, and they made it happen. I hope they'll continue to improve on flavors, quality, etc. That will be a total game changer.

Coffee soooo delicious

Mohamed made this the most magical experience . It like being beamed to a mini vacation! The smells, the treats, the coffee next door!!!!!come support this family run business

Dubai chocolate and Salaam Cola
Candice C.

My daughter and I have been coming to Jerusalem Roastery every weekend after lunch for a few months now, for a variety of snacks, treats and beverages. - Dubai chocolate: We have tried so many places up and down Southern California, but Jerusalem Roastery's is truly the best. They have a variety in the fridge that is freshly made, and the price point is half of most other places, only $7.99 for a big piece. They also have wrapped ones that are good. - Knafeh: Their knafeh is served hot and fresh - they cut it in front of you. Both their soft and crispy kinds are delicious. Their cheese quality is the best I've tried in knafeh. - Nuts, seeds, etc: I have 10 bags in my kitchen right now (no exaggeration) of a variety of their nuts, seeds and corn nuts from the case in the front. My favorite is the roasted peas, their mixed nuts, kabooki and corn nuts. That's all I eat for dinner sometimes. - There are a variety of wrapped chocolates from Jordan that I buy for home and as gifts. I also share these with my staff at work and now their eyes light up whenever I bring them some. - Halal gummies are so fresh and they always have something new. Sour fans: The sour blue ones are my favorite (there are many blue ones!) - Baklava: I think I've tried all of the baklava now and the best one is all of them, just buy one of each and enjoy. - My favorites of their beverages (so far) is the Salaam Cola and the Sahra Middle Eastern Cold Brew. I prefer Salaam Cola over other sodas now, and the cold brew blew my socks off when I first tried it. They also carry a variety of Asian products that some Asian markets are often sold out on, like Dobby, the viral Hong Qi ice creams, and different flavors of noodles. Dobby from here is more fresh than other places I've tried. The store itself is beautiful - you can tell they are selective and take pride in the decor and everything they sell. Best of all, the kindest family owns the store and they are always so welcoming, asking if we want to try different things and telling us when they have new arrivals. Definitely come here for quality products and to support a wonderful family business. This is a very special place.

Dubai chocolate!
Vincent N.

Interesting little shop! There's lots of middle eastern spices, nuts, snacks, desserts and candy that you can grab and they charge by the pound. I got probably like 8-10 strips of sour belts and it was around $2.50. It was pretty good and didn't taste overly sugary! What I really came here for was the viral Dubai Chocolate, which comes with knafeh and pistachio! $8 a bar, which isn't too bad of a price since a whole chocolate bar at some cafes are around $18. I thought it was pretty decent, could use more pistachio filling, definitely not the best I've had but was good for my chocolate fix!

Hidden gem..this place has the best drinks. Of course the coffee is legit slow roasted made. Typically if you are accustomed to knowing the brew is time consuming and yes don't expect to run in and get a quick fix. This place does legit coffees and smooth results. The coffee is a must try if you havent had a traditional. The next drink we now crave is the mint lemonade. Fresh mint blended freshness that your mouth expects fresh and a tartness Wow! Blows your taste buds and a quench of the mixture of flavors will bring you back for more. I love that they have their traditional beverages of choice in the cooler as well. Please Stop in a Must!! You will enjoy the experience and also get hooked like us. Staff is super friendly always so helpful with questions. Remember the wait is so Worth the love that you will sip. Thank you Jerusalem Roastery also the restaurant next door has the most delicate delicious traditional desserts.

Small coffee place with decent coffee and coffee drinks you won't get at Starbucks. Friendly and helpful staff.

Shannon Z.

Dubai chocolate bar here is delicious! They store it in the fridge so it's nice and cold - the pistachio knafeh had a great crunchy texture. It's served as just one vertical bar and is super thick with a lot of filling. They have a huge variety of middle eastern desserts and snacks here, and said they're expanding to a coffee shop too which I can't wait to try. The owner here was incredibly nice as well.

Minelie A.

Great Palestinian store full of goodies, products, spices, candies and etc. The service was pleasant as the store that you can find lot of fun stuffs to try. I loved the gorgeous home decor, coffee/ tea cups and etc...The kenafe/ kunafa is must try one!!!!Delicious!!!! It's one of the store that made me explore and buy something new to try.

This is the only Thai restaurant we frequent lately, but have been enjoying it for at least the…read morepast 5 years. The food is always hot, fresh, made fast, and flavorful! The portions are generous and filling. This is a friendly and welcoming family-owned restaurant and market. The dining area is on the small side but you can usually find an open table. Order first, cash only but you can find an atm on-site. The hubby orders the 3 item combo and this time got a plate to go. I always order the pad see eww fried tofu plate and always have enough for two meals. We usually get the hubby a combo dessert at the market next door and he devours it at home. The iced coffee is strong but delicious. Definitely worth a try and staying strong on our rotation.

Cash only! Food was fresh and sooooo good. The owner was…read moresuper nice and helpful with telling me what some items were. There is no thai restaurant in the South Bay that offers steam table service. This place had a whole section of soups & curries. The section on the right were meat and veggies. There is quite a variety of prepackaged items like pad thai, pad see you, skewers & etc in front of the steam table area. The place is a little bit of a dive and old, but don't let that discourage you from trying this place out. If no cash, there is an ATM in the restaurant to get cash. I had the bitternelon & mustard green soup, bittermelon & mushroom veggie stir fry with steamed rice. From the table of prepackaged food, I got the pad see you (chow fun). I cannot wait to go back & try the other items out despite how divey this place is.
