Crave Gourmet Street Food

If, like me, you stopped eating cheeseburgers at your Bar-Mitzvah, then let me tell you, the meat itself tastes WAY better than what I remember and the "cheese" makes it creamy like I'll never forget. And if somehow you've worked through all the burgers, the specials are Insane! Oh, and the beer selection is only topped by wait staff who bring such good vibes!

Amazing (!!!) Kosher (!!!) Street food. Perfect for people that are keeping kosher and crave cheeseburgers and other forbidden-by-the-torah food. Good beers, large choice of burgers, smash burgers, sandwiches and side dishes. The vegetarian cheese is very convincing and feels like the real thing. There’s also fantastic fake bacon. The sandwiches and dishes are very big and filling, and we could hardly finish what we ordered. Absolutely not disappointing, filling and delicious. There’s also some cocktails you can chose from. The place is nicely decorated, with some graffiti. It’s very nice also sitting outside in summertime. Service is nice and sympathetic. It’s near the Shuk and has a lot of public transport nearby - but parking is not easy finding… It is a little on the expensive side for street food, but it’s worth it once in a while. Highly recommend !!!

Good variety of street food and despite being kosher, good cheeseburger. Great vibe with music and life going on in Mahane Yehuda area. Friendly staff. The meals are quite big - do not over-order😉 Overall, Recommend!

It was pretty good, seated right away and I loved the aesthetics of the place - hip, cool and fun. Steak Burger was okay, not very big and not what I expected in ground steak. The fake cheese was good and the one small strip of lamb facon was ok, a bit rubbery. The fries, however, were perfect - hot, crispy, golden deliciousness! Service was on point. Had an issue with one dessert and was offered to take it off the check but I asked for a different one and man that was GREAT, probably the best part of the meal. Cool stuff on the menu and overall good but really wanted a solid burger!

Best burger in Israel!! High quality ingredients, prompt, friendly and efficient service. The bacon lamb is incredible. Good beer selection and if you have room for dessert, the apple pie rolls are amazing. It does get busy for obvious reasons but any wait is worth it.

The chicken sandwich was moist and delicious. The nachos filled a craving I longed for from the states, however they were the “Best Nachos Ever”. The waitress was a as excellent. Steak was juicy and secular. Sandwiches was full of flavor.

What an ammmmmazing kosher menu. We had to try everything and almost did. The Philly cheese steak, the Ruben, the brisket, duck fries and more. They have a huge bar menu and so many different items. When you get to machane Yehuda spend the night, get there early and be ready to wait. There is always a line but I think well worth it.

Crave Gourmet Street Food – A Culinary Powerhouse in the Shuk Crave at Machane Yehuda is a revelation—an electrifying fusion of American, Mexican, and Korean flavors, delivered with that top-notch kosher touch . Every visit surprises me anew, whether I’m diving into their sous‑vide brisket ends—sweet, fatty, melt-in-your-mouth perfection— or sinking my teeth into a perfectly smashed burger that’s juicy right down to the last bite . The vibe is exactly what you want: loud in the best way, alive with music, friendly banter, and energy that only the shuk can bring . Staff are enthusiastic aficionados, always ready with recommendations—plus they cook with attention, even making “bacon” so good it doesn’t feel fake . Yes, a full evening here can be a bit pricier than typical street food, but for the quality of ingredients, inventive dishes, and buzzing atmosphere, it’s worth every shekel . Indoor seating is functional, but I prefer the outdoor tables—great for soaking in the market lights and sounds. Overall, Crave delivers in spades: bold flavors, a festive vibe, and a real shake-up of kosher street food. It’s become my go‑to spot for a lively, indulgent meal in Jerusalem. Highly recommended!
