Bistro Bar Jerusalem is located in an old nostalgic building with a sunny yard.
The restaurant’s menu is very versatile with original tasty Mediterranean food.
During the days it is a place for the whole family and in the evening, a
location for the Jerusalem bohemia with happy nights on the bar.
The
spacious yard is popular in sunny winter days and cool summer nights. Seating
is around mosaic tables, and there is also heating and sunshades as needed.
Another
area is the greenhouse, where there’s plenty of light and it’s nice and
warm.
The
indoor seating area is romantic and nostalgic. The décor includes wooden design
with vintage items such as an old gramophone, old photographs of Jerusalem,
etc.
The bar
also has the same décor, very warm with a lot of wood.

Bistro’s menu is quite versatile, including vegan dishes, fish, poultry and
beef. The menu includes breakfast, starters, salads, soups, entrees, including
such that the younger visitors would appreciate (such as hamburgers and fried
chicken tenders), pasta and dessert. There’s something for everyone here. And
the dishes are all prepared with a lot of attention to create a variety of
flavors that is interesting and unique.
We
arrived to the Link bistro bar Jerusalem on a sunny Saturday and sat in the yard.
Here are the dishes that we had.
Starters
Onion
Soup –onion soup with cheese-crusted croutons. The
soup is very tasty, a pinch of white wine is evident, not too thick and the
croutons are really good!
Chicken
Liver Pate – a
generous amount of Jewish chicken liver pate, made just like my grandmother
used to make it. Served with toasts.
Ceviche – a colorful plate seabass in lemon juice, in a
mosaic of cream of eggplant and cream of avocado, decorated with cherry
tomatoes, small radish, hot pepper and watercress served with toasts. This dish
is dreamy! Pure pleasure – don’t miss it!
Main
Courses
Salmon
in Orange Butter – a nice
portion of Norwegian Samon, perfectly made in sweet orange sauce. Served with
oven-made vegetables – sweet potato, zucchini, and white onion.
Entrecote
Steak – a T-Bone steak made to order, serve
with arugula and garlic dip. It is served with a side, we chose home fries,
small potatoes with a lot of paprika. The steak was ordered medium and it was
done exactly as ordered. The dip is superb, reminded us of pesto but with a new
taste.
Desserts
Pistachio
and White Chocolate Mousse – A triangle shaped cake of greenish pistachio
mousse and white chocolate. Served with almond chips and caramel sauce. The
mousse is very light and had an excellent texture. Very unique taste and very
sweet, this is the type of mousse I don’t think I will make at home and it is a
pleasure to have something like this when I go out to eat. 
Banana Crumble – a warm dessert of bananas with a crunchy
layer, served with a ball of vanilla ice cream. A tasty very-sweet dessert that
we enjoyed eating.
The
restaurant has a large selection of drinks, including soft drinks and freshly
squeezed juices (I had apple juice), a selection of beers and alcoholic
beverages. In the evening the place turns to a bohemian pub and the alcohol
takes a more substantial part.
The
prices at the Link Bistro Bar are around 40-50 nis for starters, 50-120 nis for
main courses and pasta dishes, and there are lunch offers.
I
enjoyed the meal at the Link Bistro Bar very much. I find it really nice to try
new dressings, sauces, and flavors. And in this case, at the Link was able to
surprise me with something new in each course.
