We are comfort food at its finest, originally located in the shuk of Machneh Yehuda, the heart of Jerusalem, Israel, since 2014. We specialize in making delectable Kurdish-Syrian pastries known as Shamburak. These savory pastries are hand crafted, filled and layered with Indian mashed potatoes, varieties of meat, fried onions and chimichurri which are finished off in our eye-catching taboon. Now, for the very first time in the US, we have our newest location in Tom's River, New Jersey. When entering the restaurant you will be transported to Jerusalem with the vibrant Israeli atmosphere, while dining and savoring upscale comfort food. Perfect for date night or any family event (ask about our VIP room), Ishtabach covers all bases. Operated under the strict supervision of Hisachdus/CRC and the KCL.
