Dined hear with newfound friends during our Fusion with Rabbi Jason Tour. The food was authentic, fresh, and delicious. The wine was local and excellent. The service was first class and friendly. Highly recommend.
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.

“Not happy at all”
Was very unhappy with the service here. It took over an hour to receive our order and the staff was unhelpful or just unattentive. The building seemed to be in a bit of disrepair and a bit dirty. Food was good but nothing special not worth waiting over an hour for definitely,
“Very nice place”
We went there after looking for something not fancy, and that is exactly the place. Tasty food, good atmosphere, friendly and decent prices. Recommend for families, couples or just for a drink.
