Group Dining Menus
If you’re dining with a group of 6-24 people, we highly recommend doing a group menu starting at 180 NIS per person for lunch and 200 NIS per person in the evenings.
All group menus include a bread with olive oil and various dips, a collection of starters and beverages in the middle of the table for sharing and a main course and dessert for each diner.
Your group also gets 10% off the wine and alcohol menu, and you can upgrade your beverage options to include a glass of wine for each diner (20 NIS per person) or unlimited wine for your entire group (50 NIS per person).

The waitress barely spoke English, which for a fancy establishment such as this, is unacceptable. (2) The food was horrendous. The 8 hour asado was tough as leather, brisket tasted like it was straight out of a supermarket package, the salmon was served in a nauseating, unpalatable thick and sweet sauce (think of orange custard just way more liquidy and sweet) skin side down (!), the steaks were not trimmed correctly, were thin and tasted slightly off. Even the hamburger was tough, dry and flavorless (we all agreed that the fast-food joint Burger Bar had much better burgers). The best tasting dish was the goose liver and even that, the inside was cold! The worst part was it seemed every dish used margarine or some kind of butter substitute that coated your mouth in a very unpleasant way. Suffice to say, we were not impressed and will never come back here.

MoreWhilst the food was generally as good as usual, the service was not up to par. From the beginning to end it made me feel I was not worth of attention. It started when I went in whilst hubby and son looked for parking. I sat at the table alone for a bit and was carefully ignored. When they arrived, it took a while until our lackadaisical waiter took notice of us. We had endive salad (ok but 68 nis??) beef fillet with “truffle butter” (lovely, but was supposed to come with potato gratin and instead it came with a strange broccoli-cabbage spongy concoction) , salmon (pronounced well cooked but the combination with the sour taste of citrus fruit was not appreciated) and entrecote, very much appreciated, souffle - apparently very good - and almond cake with pears and almond ice cream and “cheese” - the concept is good but the cake was too heavy and hard. Again, the soup of the day was changed mid-evening for some strange reason - orange vegetable soup when we came and Jerusalem artichoke soup was offered when we were at our mains - why couldn’t they offer both at the same time? The atmosphere during the evening ranged between feeling in the wrong place and downright contagious. Say what you may, it does affect one’s enjoyment of the food itself. It is definitely not the first time we dine at this establishment. It will take me a bit to forget this evening and come again.
