👍👍 The place is cozy and beautiful with an authentic French atmosphere. It feels like it was transferred in its entirety from France to Israel including the wonderful staff managed by Stefan the owner and chef and his lovely daughter Ilana who was attentive, patient and sociable.

    The place is cozy and beautiful with an authentic French atmosphere. It feels like it was transferred in its entirety from France to Israel including the wonderful staff managed by Stefan the owner and chef and his lovely daughter Ilana who was attentive, patient and sociable. The food was delicious and the dishes were colorful and aesthetic. This was our first visit to the place and certainly not the last. Thank you Stefan and Ilana! Highly recommended!

    True French cuisine prepared by a lovely couple. The husband is the chef while the wife runs the service. Everything is made in house, from the bread to the ice cream. The bouillabaisse is special, and the risotto is wonderful. We also had salmon steak tired with mint, with great sides. I loved the creme brulee for dessert. The specials change weekly. There is limited seating and short hours, so call for reservations.

    Quaint french restaurant serving dairy dishes only (soups, salads, pasta, rissoto, fish - no meat). Friendly and helpful service, tasty food, prices a little higher than usual but the quality of the food justified this in my opinion. Toilets are clean and modern.

    A very good small restaurant. Hidden and not much known. Wonderful and tasty dishes, and a personal attention from Stefan, the owner. Divine desserts. The only problem is, that the restaurant is kosher, dairy, so there is no meat. That's why I gave only four stars.

    All their plats are very tasty. Take what ever you want, you will enjoy. Of course, you have to reserve because It's very little place (about 20 peoples), it's not a lovely spot but inside is nice and very clean.

    We were pleasantly surprised to bump into this very nice place. Learned it's featured in Niv Gilboa top-50 book. French cuisine with some pasta - the aglio e olio with extra hot pepper was great. We followed the waiter's recommendations and were not disappointed. While it's not haute cuisine, it's very tasty classic stuff in a surprising location.

  • 4/5 yvan l. 11 months ago on Google
    I have been there a few times in the past few years. Still good but not as good as it used to be. We started with an oignon soup that was tasty. The touch of roasted bread with cheese was a nice touch. For the main course, we shared a portobello mushroom risotto, a pasta dish with cold pesto , a lasagne, and a quenelle dish. To summarise, everything was good, but nothing was great or with something of an original taste or an interesting presentation. This is not true for the quenelle, a dish close to my heart, from Lyon in france, my town of birth. Nice presentation with a separate dish for the quenelles and on the side,some vegetables, and samples of potato dishes. The side dishes were good and refreshing. My problem was with the quenelles. Even if you talk of a reinterpretation, it was much too muchy and not reminding me of the real stuff. For dessert, we had a tart Tatin and a crepe Suzette. Both tasty and both intertaining with the alcohol flambé on the top. Still worth a visit but I wish, the place was a bit more generous with some bread on the table or sort grated cheese on the side. Great french music in the background.

🫤 Beautiful location, but I was there for a wedding and when I realized the food was not Kosher - cheese and meat on the same buffet, someone said there was shrimp, with no warning in advance to the guests - the staff was extremely rude to me and made fun of my religiosity. I have no need for every re...

While the pizza was nice, not excellent, I gave this place 5 stars because of the service and great atmosphere. It took the waiter three minutes to come to ou...

😠 The food and drinks here were great. It’s really sad that as an experience the restaurant totally failed to deliver. Our waiter was completely apathetic. He wouldn’t even look at us while talking, and couldn’t properly answer our questions. During our meal he cleared dishes we weren’t through with y...
