3 stars because: The place is very nice and clean ,the vibe is calm with big drawings on the windows, the music was nice too but a bit loud. The service was nice but disappointed in the end,they answered for any question about the dishes and tryed to change as we asked (Vegan Gluten Free is a problem here...the gluten free dishes are all the meat and fish dishes and a basic salad (that cost around 80nis)...) The dishes arrived after about 30 min's but simultaneously because we were 6 people. Now the dishes and the menu...: I know that it's a chef restaurant the dishes are small with great look but probably my taste buds are broken . I love seafood,meat,fish and ordered the Black Spaghettini dish that contain chopped seafood and fermented chili, so the spaghetti taste was weird and not so tasty, the dish was very small (i was sure that i won't be hungry after a dish that cost 146nis but there is always a first time.) So...in conclusion the place is look nice very fancy, u'll probably will get a cool photos of food to your Instagram but you probably will get out hungry and with receipt of 200-300...
Read moreLet me start with I don't know how this place got 4* rating whatsoever. Not that the restaurant is bad, it is even quite good. But NOT for the price range and the "chef restaurant" label. At least based on our visit last night. First of all the service was BAD. The plates and utensils were plain dirty. The restaurant was half empty, and the waiters did not come over or looked at us at all. We had to call them anytime we wanted something, and a few times they just ignored us. The food was OK, but nothing special. Not even one dish stood out as great, and two of the dishes were plain WRONG. The risotto was a mush, the bread was almost stale. None of the dishes were properly seasoned (either too much or too little salt and pepper). The only thing i can think of, it that the chef was not present, and the stuff just "did not give a **". We paid 588 nis + tip ( 180 usd) for two Appetizers, two main courses and one desert (+ wine).
Pros: Decent food, good (not great) quality ingredients, VERY nice interior design/decor, very cheap and very near parking (15 nis for the night) Cons: PRICE, service, "no...
Read moreThis was quite an upsetting experience....i ordered meat with polenta and greens (don't remember the exact name of the dish).
It was bad. The meat was appalling - chewy, to the point that i had to spit it out after my jaw muscles got tired.....i don't understand how such a bad quality meat could be served at any public place.
Moreover, as if the texture and quality wasn't bad enough it was not seasoned at all in any way which resulted in no taste at all.....i don't think i ever had such a bad experience with meat, sometimes it can be a bit dry but still the meaty flavors, the juiciness it's all there.....here there was none of it....and all this in the most expensive dish at this restaurant - 143 NIS.
I should also mention that they state that the meat is done medium rare - it is not....it is rare on the side of not cooked at all.
I wish i could give it less than one star, in fact i would give it minus 10. Tel Aviv has soooo many great places to offer.....this one shouldn't even...
