"Fatush" sea fish, sumac and pita.
Reviewed By Adam828
The problem when somewhere becomes very popular is if the service becomes arrogant. My wife really enjoyed her meal whereas I felt the menu didn't grab me. I get why it's a place to eat and be seen but just not for me.

Delightful neighborhood bistro just a short walk from our apartment near Banana Beach. Easy walk from Dan Panorama and David Intercontinental Hotels.Indoor and outdoor seating. Casual atmosphere. Excellent food. We ate too much! No need to order a starter, entree portions were sufficiently large and satisfying. Hubby ordered âMeat and Root Vegetablesâ, which reminded us of a thick beef stew seared on a pillow of mashed potatoes. The underlying flavor was a red wine reduction; the seasonings excellent and the portion large. I ordered a grilled eggplant starter. It was a whole eggplant sitting on a bed of tomatoes, onions and parsley, covered in a tahini sauce, accompanied by slices of a hard crust (italian) bread. For me, it was too much tahini. Hubby enjoyed the tomatoes, onions and parsley bruschetta style.I ordered the chicken and couscous latkes for my main. Delicious! Beautifully spiced, accompanied by a great salad of bitter greens, mesculin/rocket, green beans, cucumbers and cranberries. So far our best dining experience in Tel Aviv.

Absolutely delicious and delightful local, neighborhood spot. A total of maybe 10 tables, most of which are outside in a charming sidewalk café environment. The owner and staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. The food was local Israeli and delicious. Definitely get the large hummus plate to start with the Israeli pita bread, and you canât go wrong with the minced meat Shawarma or the chicken plate. (I preferred the meat!). Definitely save room for what they call the âspecial dessert!â Inventive, colorful and full of different flavors.

In the Heart of the city close to the Carmel market you'll find a Home style - Israeli cuisine. Serving 7 days a week - Fresh home made Hummus, Shakshuka, Yemenite Jachnun Malawach, Israeli salads and more. Authentic atmosphere, friendly service and great

Went here in Saturday based on recommendations and because options are limited on Saturday, but they were open. The food was delicious, we ordered the house malawach and hummus with a small Israeli salad. Everything was extremely flavorful: the hummus was rich, the salad was simple and well flavored, and the malawach was really crispy flaky and delicious. The service was not very good though. Not sure if it was because it was Saturday or only the one guy most of the time we were there (who was very nice), but he was dealing with 5 tables and a few take out orders and was completely overwhelmed. Took over 10 minutes to get menus, and drinks were slow. Also it's very small and only outdoor seating. Would still recommend, hopefully you have better service than I did.

We came on a Friday afternoon without a reservation. Our part of four waited 1.5 hours or so but the host brought complimentary beverages (inc. beer) to cool us and the other patrons off. Once we got in, the music was great and the food was even better. The staff have us some recommendations that were awesome. I only wish I'd had more room in my stomach to try to soup!

We wondered why there was always a queue here. Having eaten here, i now know why. Delicious felafels, complemented by a panoply of fresh spices and additional delights. Next door, its sister establishment serves grilled vegetables in Pitta. Perfect street food

Onza is the place where a young, vibrant Tel Aviv atmosphere combines with the magic and mystery of the Jaffa flea market to make a delicious restaurant âcocktailâ. Here, a sophisticated and innovative bar is blended with a meticulous menu created by chef

This is such a fun place! I sat at the bar with a friend and the bartenders were really lovely. Our waiter as well! We ordered a few starters (it's kind of a meze place). The food was delicious and the portions generous. The presentation was nice as well. The place really hops on a Thursday night! I'll be back.

Bar- Restaurant, happy Casual dinning . Mediterranean, traditional Israeli food. Meet & fish, Vegetarian Friendly, beers & cocktails.
Reviewed By Dalit-LR
Good atmosphere, good service and a nice place to sit and relax in the market.The food is OK+ - I had a Balkan Shakshuka that was served with small sides of salad and a fresh bread.However, the egg in the Shakshuka was a little runny and I was not asked if this is how I like my egg. The restaurant did not have wholemeal or other non-white bread to serve with the dish.The house beer "Malca" is very nice and smooth.Reasonable prices.

There was a long line of people waiting to order-but it was so worth it. Now that I am back home in the US-I am craving the sabich sandwich I had at this restaurant. I so recommend it!https://www.tripadvisor.com/ShowUserReviews-g293984-d3292775-r716049714-SABICH_TSERNIKOVSKI-Tel_Aviv_Tel_Aviv_District.html#
