One of the best Thai restaurants in the country, and one of the best Iโve been to in general.
Thai Underground is located on the former grounds of an agricultural school and has a lush garden that serves as the source for lots of the restaurantโs herbs and veg. The emphasis is on authenticity and all the flavors are distinctly Thai but have a slight Mediterranean touch - for example, a Penang fish dish included seasonal cherries. They also donโt shy away from Thai spice levels, so if youโre sensitive to spicy food make sure to tell your server and see which dishes are right for you - theyโre generally very accommodating. There are also vegetarian and vegan options.
Every dish we had was delicious but some stood out - the Jerusalem artichoke pot stickers, the Penang fish stir fry with okra, cherries and rice, the pad thai, and the cocktail (a yummy aperol-chartreuse concoction) were all stellar. The egg roll was slightly pedestrian so Iโd recommend a more adventurous choice!
Note that they donโt take reservations and the restaurant is always full, so try to come early or be prepared for a wait; we came on a Sunday night and it was packed. The service is friendly and knowledgeable, and the owners are around and happy to chat about their passion for Thailand and its cuisine and culture.
In short - a must-visit if youโre in the neighborhood, and even worth a trip especially if you love Thai flavors. The whole area is becoming a bit of a culinary hub with lots of interesting options, and the beauty of this historic Moshava is likewise...

ย ย ย Read moreThis is most likely the best Thai restaurant I visited in Israel. Great service, wonderful atmosphere and the food is so accurately made with attention to all the details of real Thai food. Very good seasoning job and fresh materials. I highly recommend you to be patient upon arrival, since this place doesn't get any reservations up ahead. The waiting time can be anywhere between 10 to 45 minutes but in the meanwhile you can get some drinks and there is a nice place you can sit until you're called for the table. Some dished are very spicy, so make sure you ask the waiter for more details about the dishes before ordering. Many dishes are vegetarian so anyone can easily find something good to try.
Thanks for a great experience, we'll definitely...
