Café CUCU — Restaurant in Tel-Aviv

Another bar on Dizengoff street, which is generally great. The atmosphere was pleasant with great Tel Aviv vibes. Regarding the food though - for starters we ordered the caesars salad and the sashimi. The sashimi was tasty but such tiny proportions. The main issue was the salad - first, it was missing some ingredients like parmesan cheese and gremalota. Second, it looked like they took the lettuce out of the plastic box from the supermarket and just placed it on the plate, it wasn't cut, and it had a cupple of pieces of onion on top (we asked the dressing on the side which was about the only right thing about this dish). Third(!) - they didn't even bother washing the lettuce and it came with a surprising little bug. They didn't charge us for this dish but they compensated us only with a free coke zero (13nis). I must say the other two dished we had were really good and delicious - it was the crispy fish and...

I went here 4 times in 2 weeks. The food is usually on point. Fresh and tasty. I had literally everything off the menu.

The standards are good and the prices are still within reason in this unreasonable world. Good VFM.

They make it a point to come and ask if everything is okay, so I felt comfortable to comment when the buche crossiant tasted a bit stale (but we still enjoyed it a lot). They took it off the check, in a super classy way. We did not expect it at all! But we appreciated it. Especially coming from the industry. It feels great when the customer experience is everything. And it is definitely worth it because I will keep coming and recommending the place.

The street noise is a bit much at times, but the atmosphere...

Me and my mother came here and ordered a couple dishes to try! The menu was very easy to order from. The scallop dish was a little over cooked and the scallops were rubbery, but the flavor was good. The mozzarella and tomato salad really doesn’t need the horseradish, it’s extremely overpowering when it’s sprinkled on the top. It’s interesting to add, but it’s not necessary. The fish was actually really good for me, but not everyone would like it since it has a strong olive oil taste. I thought it was the best dish though. The shrimp dish was definitely over cooked and the bread was soaked in oil. Overall the mean was good! Was it amazing? No. But it was good. Would come back here, but I’m not running...
