Classic middle eastern food, very generous portions. Served family style. This place is noisy, fun. Can be very crowded. Meat. Bring a good appetite.

Hatzot Steak House (Midnight Steak House) is well known as the place where the famous “Jerusalem mixed grill” was created. This dish is a unique mix of meats (including internal organs) and a secret spice mix that gives the food its unique colors, aromas and delectable flavors not to be found anywhere else.
Founded in 1970 by two brothers, Abraham and Michael Ajami, this kosher steak house has become a cornerstone of Jerusalem’s culinary culture. Hatzot is now run by the second generation of the Ajami family and recently underwent a facelift that combines the ambiance of the Mahane Yehuda Market with a retro design while preserving the warmth and welcoming atmosphere of its earlier years.
Hatzot Steak House is a wonderful meeting point for groups touring Mahane Yehuda or the neighborhood Nachlaot. Customers will find professional service combined with an authentic local atmosphere. The restaurant also offers a private room great for bar mitzvah celebrations after the Western Wall, private dinners and other events.
The place is wheelchair accessible.
