  City Center
  Downtown Jerusalem is the heart of the modern metropolis, with nightlife, dining and culture to rival any major city. The area is made up of several neighborhoods, including the colorful Mahane Yehuda Market, charming Nahalat Shiva, bustling Ben Yehuda and Yafo Streets. Each has its own unique personality and atmosphere that you won’t want to miss out on.
  
  South
  South Jerusalem is an up-and-coming area that has seen the development of numerous attractions in recent years, including the state-of-the-art Jerusalem Payis Arena, which hosts some of the biggest international musical acts and sporting events. It joins places like Emek Refaim Street, Malha Mall, the Biblical Zoo, Teddy Stadium, Gazelle Valley and Ramat Rachel tourism complex in making up an area that is particularly popular with families.
  
  West Jerusalem
  West Jerusalem includes some of Jerusalem’s most charming neighborhoods and interesting attractions. Head to the picturesque Ein Karem at the foot of the Jerusalem Hills for a day of nature, quaint shops and elegant dining with a view. And for an unbeatable cultural experience, check out the Museum District, home to the world-class Israel Museum, the Bible Lands Museum, Science Museum and much more.
  
  Old City
  The Old City of Jerusalem has been a center of culture, religion and history for thousands of years, from the time of the Judean kings and the Roman era through the times of the Islamic Empire to the modern State of Israel. Every brick and stone is teeming with history. No trip to the Middle East is complete without wandering through alleys of the bazaar, walking the ramparts and exploring the Old City’s rich history at the Western Wall, Church of the Holy Sepulchre, Temple Mount (Al-Aqsa) or Tower of David Museum.
  
  NEAR OLD CITY
  Not far from the Old City, you can find some of Jerusalem’s most vibrant entertainment and shopping centers. Mamilla Mall is just a few steps from Jaffa Gate and counts as one of the most luxurious shopping centers in the city, replete with high-end shops, Mamilla Hotel’s Akasha Spa and a collection of restaurants with amazing views. And if you follow Hebron Road, you’ll find the First Station cultural complex and the Yes Planet movie theater and entertainment center.

Photo: Gabriela

- Price $$$$
- Kosher

Sun-Thurs 3:00 pm to 4:00 am
Sat from 8:00 pm to 4:00 am

Gabriela is an American diner-inspired restaurant in downtown Jerusalem with a lively, casual atmosphere and a varied menu with choices ranging from burgers and sandwiches to Mediterranean and Caribbean-inspired dishes. Of course, its location on the bustling Ben Shetach pedestrian thoroughfare almost requires you to sit outside on the patio to enjoy the fresh air and watch the passersby.

“Bad service ever”

Reviewed on January 2, 2020By Silvia D

This is a turistic trap. We were 8 people and we ordered all together, but the plates came at different moments. Four of us ate the meal and the others wait for almost 30 minutes before to have dinner. After the order the waiter came to tell us that two plates were not available...

This is a turistic trap. We were 8 people and we ordered all together, but the plates came at different moments. Four of us ate the meal and the others wait for almost 30 minutes before to have dinner. After the order the waiter came to tell us that two plates were not available and we changed the order following their availability. Moreover we've asked ten times the wi fi psw and we got it only two minutes before leaving. Super bad experience, not recommended at all.

“Avoid this whole street if you can”

This whole street is owned by the same company, we tried 2 restaurants and they were both terrible. Avoid this whole street (except the fish restaurant Dolphin Yam which is excellent) if you can or only have a drink. Worst thing is the 15% service charge they add themselves, even if service and food...

This whole street is owned by the same company, we tried 2 restaurants and they were both terrible. Avoid this whole street (except the fish restaurant Dolphin Yam which is excellent) if you can or only have a drink. Worst thing is the 15% service charge they add themselves, even if service and food were horrible, where in the rest of the country you can decide what you want to give for service.
