A post on Facebook today (14 May 2026): “A group of IDF soldiers went out to eat at Hummus Ben Sira in Jerusalem today. They asked that the following message be publicized: “Aside from the fact that the hummus was the best we ever had in our lives, the staff refused to take a shekel from us and they gave us so much food. They even refused to take our tip. So we figured the best way we could pay them and thank them would be to make this story public. Everyone should know that behind their delicious hummus stand people with hearts of gold.” 🥇 🥇 🥇 🥇
Food was very good (rated as a tourist!). Portions are huge and would probably fill 2 people. And for the price of 42 Schekel it was totally worth it. Would recommend to come here again!
Still might be the best hummus in Jerusalem!! Big claim I know - I recommend the mushroom hummus plate and the cauliflower (roasted) hummus plate. Great falafel, everything is made with love and affordable
AMAZING hummus and falafel for a phenomenal price. I am especially fond of the beef hummus. The girl at the counter has a little attitude, but I forgive her; food service is hard work and she’s probably just stressed out. I would still go back.
Fantastic food. There’s really nothing else I can say to describe it. Ordered delivery a bit late, so some items weren’t available, totally my fault. Meat hummus was FANTASTIC and a gracious helping. Chicken and fries also amazing. Falafels have a slickness my son didn’t like but he ate the chicken and I ate the falafel, problem solved. Recommend highly, making it a regular spot.
