Not cheap , but amazing. As soon as you sit down they bring you 15 different kinds of small plates with pitas bigger than your head and a huge pitcher of mint lemonade . ~Rachel, University of Haifa

Georg Meorg

Really nice place simply because of the beautiful view from the location. Moreover, the many salads you get right at the beginning are enough to get Super full and they are delish.

Nick Pittoni

An experience! Surely it's not a michelin starred restaurant ...although the waiters seemed on a contest to get one, but I think a lot of the negative comments are out of place. Loved the starters+fish

Located at Yafo which is a very nice area of Tel Aviv. Rich variety of very tasty Mezze dishes. Good quality of fresh fish . Very tasty local desserts !

You have not ordered yet but you get already a lot of small dishes with some pita bread , all incredibly good! Great spot as well !

Paige C

Talk about fresh fish ! The amount of salads and sides that come with your meal is just ridiculous! But SO good!

Nastya Belkina

Amazing place!!! So delicious! Just get one portion for two, cod you get a full table of small salads 😋

Ozgur Karakus

One of the best fish Restorant with very good mezes . It is a have to go place in Tel Aviv

Voja Kahan

I recommend going there just for the salads you get when you sit down. You get really stuffed just by eating that. They will try to get you to order something from the menu but it's not worth it

Harri P

We had great service, and the food was fantastic. I would definitely go here again. Freshest kalamari I have had since Greece last year.

Daphne Ko

20 starters come with a main. Food is delicious overall the falafel . Be prepared that the stuff is rather rude.

Vicky

Food is AMAZING, staff efficient and speak a lot of languages. Portions are huge.

Jennifer Haack

Every dish comes with 22(!) salads . The shrimp was delicious but the fish a bit underwhelming. Great location though.

Jo-ann Robertson

Crazy mezze to start means you are too full for a main course. The mezze is fabulous though.

Alan Neo

Food and scenery are great. Beware that the fruits at the end of the meal costs 45ILS.

Tomek Zelmański

Great seafood . And lots (I means like galaxy lots) starters.

Ronald Cattrysse

I think I expected too much of this place. The 25 dishes when you sit down are great (but not special). The food on the grill is ok but no more. I guess with a group on a sunny day it's an ok choice.

Anny Gomes

Huge portions and friendly stuff . A nice way to end a tour around Jaffa.

Brian Saplicki

Tons of small plates - delicious!

Mohammad Adi

Drove from Jerusalem and was worth it. Great appetizers , great food. Will def come back again.

Anechka M.

Nice trick with countless salads as addition to the main course!

Vindu Goel

The appetizer spread is amazing, as is the view of the port if you can sit outside. Main dishes are mediocre. The lemonade is quite refreshing.

Steffen Bornhoft

Amazing Mezze and fish

Heather Martino

Neat place with plenty of food.

Yoav Vollansky

Extremely Pricy for what you’re getting but delicious.

Rahul Sen

Euphrates

Sea grouper fillet and all the salads they give you

Rokas Serpytis

Great food and great service!

Daniela Giacobbo

It is located in the old port...ask for the pomegranate juice !

Milko Georgiev

Amazing set of salads . Fish is very fresh and tasty. Very good service

Vladimir Tursin

Variety of food is good, but fish dorada wasnt the best!

Ram

Prices are relatively high for mediocre food. We ordered several kinds of fish and they managed to ruin half of them. Seafood is the frozen kind. The best thing here is the service - quick and helpful

Jon C.

Very worth the line up, you will be eating your salads instantly if you are hungry

Alex Smirnoff

salads are included with the main course, and *a lot* of (15 small dishes)

Niel Van Herck

Lovely place, especially in the evening. Lots of side dishes!

Vassilis Ts

Try the local desserts !

Isaaq A

Great location. Unfortunately the food is not as it used to be, after moving to this location and being so very busy. I guess they have no desire to compete with "Abu Nasser Hinnawi"
