Excellent restaurant! I really enjoyed the stay. The ceviche was freh an delicious an my gnocchi with seafood were near perfect! I would definitely recommend to come to this restaurant. Additionally the service was really nice and helpful.
Shanty is a prominent Jerusalem bar-restaurant, which opened in 1992 in Nahalat Shiv’a. The place is a stylish Israeli bistro, with jazz and chill-out music in the background and an upbeat atmosphere. The location adds to the unique design – an original 19th-century Jerusalem building with high arches and special floors covered with carpets.
The kitchen is run by the chef Alon Sela who presents a rich menu of meat, chicken and seafood. Among the recommended dishes are seafood risotto; mussels in cream and anise; spicy wings; and a 400-gr. steak with salad and potatoes. If you visit Shanty and aren’t in the mood for a meal, you can sit at the bar and enjoy the wide selection of wines, beers and other alcoholic beverages.

This place is worth finding! It's a short way down an alley off of Joffa. There is a bar side (smoking) and restaurant side (non-smoking).
