I've had the pleasure of dining at Harvey's Smokehouse in Jerusalem, Israel, both at its original location on Shim'on Ben Shatakh Street and its current home on Jaffa Street. Here's a detailed account of my experiences and what you can expect from this popular eatery.
Originally, Harvey's Smokehouse made its mark in Jerusalem on Shim'on Ben Shatakh Street. Known for its unique menu of American BBQ in the heart of Jerusalem, it quickly became a go-to spot for both locals and tourists. Eventually, the restaurant moved to a new location on Jaffa Street. This move brought a change in ambience, but the quality of food and service remained consistently high.
