Jerusalem Cafe & Deli

Vegan & Vegetarian options that even gentiles will love! I go to this place to get my Falafel fix. Its easy to order and know whats vegan in this restaurant because it is full kosher. Kosher law demands that meat and dairy do not mix, and the easiest way for a restaurant to eliminate the potential of these items mixing in the kitchen is for them to eliminate one or the other. In this case, this restaurant does not serve any items with dairy. Its not the best Israeli I’ve ever had, but its pretty much the only option I know of in the Tampa Bay area and the food is quite good. The décor is pleasant and I feel comfortable bringing girls on dates here. They do serve domestic beer as well as Israeli beer.
They also have a small grocery section in the back that sells kosher and specialty foods from Israel. When I was vegetarian I would frequent this place for their kosher cheese which is also vegetarian (meaning the enzymes used to make the cheese do not come from dead animal sources).
