2. Limona
$$ | |Glass walls let the sun pour into this restaurant beside Hisham's Palace, providing a delightful setting for Palestinian basics done right. Middle Eastern mezze salads are delicious, grilled meats are expertly done, and you can try traditional dishes like Musakhan chicken cooked in sumac. The minty lemonade is a revelation after a hot day. On cooler days or in the evenings, there is a large patio with outdoor seating.

5. Reshta

Bread is baked in a stone oven on-site, and vegetarians can order salads or vegetable stew. No alcohol is served, but you can bring your own.
