MoreThis was our final meal on an 8 day trip to Israel. So glad it was at Pichonka! We had a large group (28) and the service was excellent. Our meal was colorful, flavorful and served family style. I especially enjoyed the salmon—it was perfectly grilled and very tasty. Pichonka is a little out of the way, but worth the trip. The main dining room was full of locals on a Tuesday evening. Our group sat in an enclosed patio that would be lovely when opened for outdoor dining. Unfortunately, it was evening so we couldn’t enjoy the view, but I bet it is stunning because you are in the hill country just outside Jerusalem. The hostess told me she had her wedding there recently. Highly recommend for American tourists.
