Sami

Description:

• Sami's is the rival of longtime mixed grill champion, Sima's, its across-the-street neighbor . There are partisans on both sides as far as taste goes. Sami's, with its polished marble floors and walls and adequate seating, has certainly elevated me'orav Yerushalmi (Jerusalem mixed grill) to a new standard of elegance. You may even be allowed to order a hefty small-size mixed-grill sandwich and eat it at a table, although the rule of Agrippas Street is that unless you order a meal, you don't get a plate (your sandwich comes in a paper bag). Steaks, kabobs, schnitzels, and salads are all excellent. Prices include pita, olives, and pickled vegetables.
