Angelica

Food was hit and miss: parsnip soup was good, roasted cabbage was very good, sweetbreads were inedibly fatty and grisly—they were not demembraned, properly—paparadelle was good. We had a hard time getting the server’s attention and had to ask for water four times before getting water and not from our waitress. Gin and tonic did not have any lime, and after the waitress was told to do a 15% tip, she did an 18% one. Not sure if that was an honest mistake or ? Restaurant service seemed chaotic and overwhelmed.

Overall great experience! It’s a laid back atmosphere with high quality food. All the dishes were great but the goose breast was (in my opinion) the best dish I’ve had in Jerusalem. For any tourist wondering what to wear, I saw people wearing summer travel clothes while others were wearing date night attire.

I have been to Jerusalem a few times and have my favorites, but I couldn’t get into the 2 restaurants that I wanted so I took the suggestion of the front desk at Mamilla Hotel. He recommended Angelica. Looked at the pictures and was impressed. I gave it 3 stars because of the service not the food. I cleaned my plate. Food is great. Well seasoned and nicely plated. Service kinda sucked. It took awhile to get our drink orders when they took it the wine came out quick but I was one of 2 that orders a Coke Zero. It took forever to get my coke and I had to follow up. Next the waitress was rude to my sister’s boyfriend. He wanted medium rare burger. She insisted medium even medium well. It was really her attitude though. How she answered him. A little disappointed for such a nice restaurant.

A bit expensive, especially the wine list but the food was DELICIOUS and beautifully served. The waitress and all the staff could not have been any more professional ( a rarity in Israeli restaurants where most serving people are kids just trying to earn a few bucks for their trip abroad).

Menu didn’t match online menu. They do not serve Goose breast which is what we wanted as seen online. Waitress was aloof and cold. She recommended the chicken breast- I asked if it was dry she said not at all. It was dry. Told her so and she just shrugged. My husband then cut himself on some glass that was stuck on his chair. They came to have a look and removed it and said sorry but did not seem to care. Very unfriendly, price does not match the service and food. Would not return.

The private room and the service were good, i think that for the expense and the expectations we were expecting a little more, we enjoyed the private room it was a little hot with the lights that heat, a simple switch to LED would help reduce the heat in the little room, the service remembered a lot of details but the small requests were forgotten, great food and options atmosphere was great! The sound in the private room could have been dealt with to accommodate the room more

Angelica has not just remained consistently outstanding in terms of food and service - it has even improved which I didn’t think was possible as it was already amazing. With its perfect central location and food that will make your mouth water and will leave the most difficult diners with a smile and happy stomach - Angelica remains my favorite fine dining restaurant in Jerusalem and very possibly in the country. Thank you. King Regards, Jeremy Weiss Concierge Manager The King David Hotel

Very nice and testy! The food was great, and the service was very good. For the first dish we ordered the Chicken Liver Pate and Roast beef Bruschetta,both were full of great flavors and very good! For the main course we ordered the Grilled Beef Fillet which was well made and had many great and cool add-ons on the plate. Highly recommend.
