chicken liver with polenta and black pasta with seafood : amazing. that said, the menu always changes.

Monii C. Riestra

The vibe is really cool, good music , amazing food and great hospitality ! Try the risotto and the pistachio dessert (I don’t remember the name but is like a Pie )

Clea Romeo

The calamari and fattoush were fantastic. We sat at the bar and the bar staff were a bit too cool for school though. Not very helpful and with an attitude

Ronald Cattrysse

Worth the hype, restaurant that almost transforms into a club with amazing Mediterranean food : beef tartar , polenta , cheese cake or even better: get the tasting menu !

David Noël

One of the best meals of the year. Get the tasting menu and trust them. Try to get a seat at the kitchen counter to watch the action.

Katerina Komninou

Whatever you take is really delicious! Polenta , octopus , endives salad , risotto with mushrooms and truffle , sea-bass, and amazing desserts ! Try red wine Mourvèdre 2013, and the home made beer Davidka!

Amazing international food. Oh God! Probobly the best one in Jerusalem. Just portions were really huge. So you can't manage to try everything. Great combinations. Fish . Asia. European. Pasta . Desert .

Grisha Lunyakov

Fantastic. Best food we've eaten in Israel. The atmosphere is a bit loud , the service is immaculate, and the waiters are very pleasant. Try Snickers 2.0 if you have room for dessert .

Gabriel Rodriguez Diaz

The polenta , tuna tartare , bouillabaisse risotto with sea bass and the almond and mascarpone tart were insane! Big fan of the Legendary 8 cocktail as well .

Maja Drabczyk

Beautiful food-> you really want to taste polenta with mushroom ! charming and incredibly positive staff and amazing, though a bit too loud , music in the background.

Great atmosphere, friendly personnel and great food. Be aware the portions are a bit too small for the money so order some appetizers !

If it is possible, try to reserve the high table at the 2nd floor. There is open kitchen here, so you can see all the cooking process — it's quite a show.

The beef carpaccio is a must! Sea bass is great. Try the namesake cocktail for sure!

A meal here is a must. If the white truffle polenta is still on the menu, order it and you'll understand why!

Loved the fish kebab , endive salad , and Jewish cheese cake . But probably everything is amazing.

Filet mignon , tuna tartar , polenta , and fish dish amazing!
