Hatzot

Hatzot is a kosher meat restaurant on Agripas Street in Jerusalem, with a menu built around grilled meats, home-style cooking and fresh salads. Its best-known specialty is Jerusalem mixed grill, a combination of seasoned meat prepared on the grill and served in the restaurant’s established local style. A house spice blend gives the mixed grill its characteristic flavor.

The restaurant’s cooking is centered on straightforward preparation and the quality of the meat. Grilled items are cooked at a controlled temperature, while the salads draw on seasonal produce associated with the nearby Mahane Yehuda market. Alongside the meat dishes, the menu includes cooked home-style foods, creating a choice between freshly grilled plates and more traditional prepared dishes.

Hatzot has a distinctly late-night identity. Its name reflects the idea of dining from midnight into the small hours, and the restaurant continues to serve late into the evening on most service days. That schedule, together with the substantial meat-focused menu, makes the restaurant suited to diners looking for a full meal after regular dinner hours as well as those seeking a traditional Jerusalem-style lunch or dinner.

The restaurant is also set up for takeaway and delivery, with self-collection available for dishes ordered in advance. Table reservations are offered, and event and group-menu options make the venue suitable for organized meals and larger occasions. The setting remains focused on the food and on the family tradition of preparing grilled meat, salads and cooked dishes in a recognizably Jerusalem restaurant format.

Hatzot serves different parts of the day, including daytime meals, late evening dining and service after Shabbat. Friday service ends before the start of Shabbat, while Saturday-night service begins after Shabbat ends. Located at Agripas 121, the restaurant is a practical choice for diners seeking kosher grilled meat, a local mixed-grill specialty or a prepared meal to take away.
