The food was great and the service was even better. The hostess Ovit went out of her way to make our group so comfortable. She arranged a special dish for our youngest guest. Our waiter Shaya was excellent with helpful suggestions and attentive service. The meal was superb!

Luxurious Restro-Bar at the Heart of the Market
Not a lot of people know that the name of Machane Yehuda Market was originally supposed to be Valero. Well, this new restaurant is claiming it back. Located at the city’s most vibrant market, Valero is a recently opened chef restro-bar that offers its patrons a restaurant dining area, a bar, and a private area. The menu includes meats, fish, and a host of interesting appetizers – all in a modern Mediterranean style with a Jerusalem twist. It’s a great place for an early-evening date, and as the night falls, Valero transforms into a fun bar with great music, drinks and a happy Machane Yehuda atmosphere.
On the Menu
Recommended dishes include: fine entrecote burger with chipotle aioli sauce and grilled potatoes, caramelized salmon with mushrooms and potato cream, ravioli, a fresh market salad, and a delicious dish of the iconic Jerusalem-mix.
The alcohol menu offers a wide variety of drinks and special cocktails, aged wines, and a vast selection of whiskey.
Celebrate Events at Valero
Valero restro-bar is available for hosting private events of up to 100 guests (full restaurant buyout) and of up to 40 guests (on a partial buyout basis) with an option for a projector and an advanced sound system. The restaurant’s servers are kind and attentive, and they will make sure to create the perfect setting to make your event unforgettable. Valero offers customized and personalized menus designed to suit any type of event both in taste and budget.
