Jerusalem Restaurants

Little Jerusalem (Bet Ticho)

Little Jerusalem (Bet Ticho) Review

This imposing old stone building, in a tranquil rustic setting, was once the home of artist Anna Ticho, whose evocative drawings of Jerusalem adorn its walls. House specialties include excellent salmon blintzes, quiches, onion soup served inside a crusty loaf of bread, and sea bream in fresh ginger sauce. The generous portions are often large enough to share, and desserts are sinful: diet tomorrow. On Tuesday night, there is a wine-and-cheese buffet accompanied by jazz music. Friday morning you can hear a chamber music concert in the upstairs gallery for a separate fee. Angle for a table on the patio in good weather.

    We are tourists from Germany, and we visit Israel every year. The first place to go is "Little Jerusalem". Exellent food, atmosphere and service! For us this place - IS Jerusalem. There is beautiful garden, old house and wonderful museum. Every time we are there we enjoy the place very much.

    went to ticho house for a nice dinner, and was sooo not impressed. the service was terrible, and the food was mediocre. yes, there were a few large groups there so maybe the staff was overwhelmed, but they all but ignored us... the food tasted like the ingredients were all canned or frozen, couldn't taste anything fresh (even the salad was pretty wilted). overall i'd say with all the wonderful restaurants in jerusalem, avoid this one!
