Machneyuda restaurant is named after the Mahane Yehuda marketplace in which it is located. It is a fairly new place, having opened in 2009, and so far it is booming success, garnering wall-to-wall praises in the media.
The restaurant was established by three well known Jerusalem chefs, Assaf Granit, Yossy Elad and Uri Navon, who joined forces to launch a place that serves joyful, modern Israeli cuisine. The restaurant is designed in a colorful, light fashion, and the menu changes daily in accordance with the marketplace inventory and the chefs’ moods. The kitchen is completely visible, allowing you to see how your food is being made. Fish, seafood and desserts are highly recommended. All the dishes are of the highest quality and not too pricey – around 80 ILS per dish.

Beautifully accommodated gluten free request. Meat was the best, best best. Everything was insanely ridiculously creative and delicious. Outstanding...
