Music was too loud to hear my companion. I requested the music to be lower but was told their policy is loud music and it will get louder into the night.

המוזיקה הייתה רועשת מכדי לשמוע את בן לוויה שלי. ביקשתי שהמוזיקה תהיה נמוכה יותר אבל נאמר לי שהמדיניות שלהם היא מוזיקה רועשת והיא תתגבר לתוך הלילה

Excellent food, staff and location

Had an outstanding meal here with some truly inventive flavorful dishes. I asked the server to guide me through the more popular items and she did well. I thoroughly enjoyed dining here and will be back next time in Israel.

Pros: Location , Good variety and taste, Staff care

Amazing food but music louder than a nightclub

Incredible food but the restaurant wants to create a nightclub vibe - so has really loud music. Lovely lovely venues but not a place to come to if you want to chat. Reasonably priced but we gave up and had dessert at a local ice cream parlour! Much better choices elsewhere in neighbourhood

Pros: Delicious food in a vibrant part of the city

Cons: The music was so loud - like a nightclub!

A fun experience for fennel lovers.

I appreciated the fact that the tried to use a lot of one vegetable in many ways. Unfortunately it was not a vegetable I enjoyed too much. But a lot of the food is really good.

Tzemah

We arrived at the restaurant to try the vegan offering. I will start by saying that the restaurant is charmingly decorated with lots of plants and an open bar that lets you overlook the whole kitchen.
the service was also pleasant and warm.
And now for the food, we ordered a mushroom cigar, eggplant tartar and mushroom skewer. The cigar included 3 cigars, a tahini sauce for dipping and a radish cut into large piece.
The cigars were great and crunchy and are a great dish to share with someone.
The mushroom skewers were very impressive visually, a long skewer on a bed of charred potatoes and under a very thin layer of mashed potatoes and on the side of asparagus.
Despite the impressive look the taste was more on the sweet side probably because of the onion cream and less as you would imagine mushroom skewers with a smoky ommi flavor.
as for the eggplant tartar dish, I didn't really liked it of because it had a dominant lemon flavor, the waitress kindly offered to substitute for the "meadow blanco" dish,
a dish of roasted beets that for me was the highlight and the best dish we tried.
The flavors were great and I also loved the strawberry twist which was refreshing.
Finally for dessert we took the only vegan dessert which was which was the malabi along with mint tea.
Unfortunately the malabi was very disappointing in serving, it came in a plastic box that made it look very cheap like something you buy at the supermarket and not at a chef restaurant.
As for the taste it was fine, the roasted pistachios were delicious but quite a standard Malabi and not a very impressive dessert.
All in all it is fun to have a completely vegetarian restaurant with a large vegan offer in Jerusalem, just need to add more desserts to the menu.

Pros: nice atmosphere

Cons: dessert could be better, Quite expensive

Pros: Delicious food by one of the country’s best chefs, Great Mediterranean food

Cons: Dairy used in many dishes
