Alena At Norman

Words cannot describe the food here, we enjoyed every bite. Dishes are overall excellent (with small flaws, e.g. parsley with onion as a ‘side’?). Decently sized. Service is 10/10 and the atmosphere is luxurious and romantic. Highly recommended

This is a fine dining restaurant, so I'm judging it accordingly. Every small detail matters and is taken into account. Overall, the food was tasty. There was nothing bad about it, but it lacked excitement, uniqueness, or anything special. The flavors and complexity were very average. Therefore, I deducted one star. In addition, we ordered the eggplant pizza, which was delayed and arrived approximately an hour and a half after we arrived at the restaurant. Despite an apology, there was no compensation offered. Furthermore, when they asked if they could bring the main courses in the meantime, I requested that they not arrive together with the pizza (as it would be too much food all at once). Unfortunately, they did arrive together, and as a result, I deducted another star. To make matters worse, they charged a staggering 34 shekels for a bottle of water. This crazy price cost them yet another star. As a fancy fine-dining restaurant, it is usually customary for bottles of water to be complimentary (as I have experienced in many similar restaurants). And if they are not, they certainly do not cost 34 shekels. On a positive note, the service was good overall, a bit slow (it took them 25 minutes to take our order). Additionally, the portion sizes were quite generous compared to similar places, which was a pleasant surprise.

We had an amazing evening at Alena. We had lots of different dishes, we were a diverse table including vegetarians and gluten free diners and we all had great fresh and tasty dishes. The atmosphere was plesent and elegant stuff were super nice, friendly and professional. Came back for a fine dining evening. We had dishes from the seasonal menu and standard menu and found everything to be extremely good. We will come again

Dinings is definitely one of the best Japanese restaurants I ever have. They surprise me of their nice service and food. Their Japanese food is not just tasty but creative, some taste are very authentic and some are very cool that I never seen in Japan. The food is just so tasty that I go there once again when I visit Israel again. The chief is very kind and friendly! The whole atmosphere is amazing nice. Location is very convenient. Must go try out! The price is comparatively high but worthy to try it once at least. Try the creative and authentic Japanese food!

We had an amazing dinner there! The hotel and the restaurant themselves are so beautiful. The vibe is calm and elegant. The menu isn't big but is diverse. Prices are a bit high. The zucchini salad was absolutely amazing and so was the spaghettini. The fillet was a little bland but the mush potatoes were delicious. The lemon pie was wonderful. The service was amazing and we really enjoyed our time.
