Thank you to the team at Café Asif and the chef for an incredible meal. Everything was a delight, the food, the service, the warmth. We were very sad to hear that the restaurant as it is was closing. We wish the team a very good luck and long carrer. Can’t wait to taste your food in your next project!
Wonderful, elevated Friday brunch experience. The menu offers both classic and innovative dishes, which all were delicious. Most tables were occupied but it didn’t feel crowded and the atmosphere is very pleasant. Friendly and helpful service. Great place to catch up with friends.
We came on Thursday noon without a reservation and had a place at the bar (my favourite 🤩), the service was fantastic off the bat, we were going to order a few dishes and the waiter said he thinks it's too much and let's start with some and we can always add later. He was so right and we were thankful to him. The food was delicious, everything was fresh well portioned and really tasty.
We had such a good time that we booked their brunch for the following day and had yet another great experience.
It's just a really good place in TLV, with great service, food and atmosphere.
My second visit - Breakfast:
Today I was trying to breakfast for the first time, I must say that I was not impressed with the food.
First I must say that I write a lot about coffee and the coffee was absolutely one of the best in Tel Aviv!
But,
The the food… The tahini was better, The soft cheese was nothing special or tasty, The salad was with medium quality vegetables and lots of oil, The jam was ok and The bread was pretty good.
So overall I did not have a feeling of “ The culinary institute of Israel”
I expected choosing the perfect olives for example 🤷🏻♂️
However, this restaurant is very new so I’m definitely going to come back and see what changed!
The atmosphere was still very nice ( very cold so you do need a sweater at the morning ) but super fun to sit in.
———————————————————— Great experience
Absolutely a must go restaurant
We had such a great experience at this new restaurant in Tel Aviv, The whole concept is fantastic, A full experience of beauty taste and atmosphere.
We were there for lunch but I definitely would suggest the restaurant for anytime.
I’m looking forward to experience more of this place.
I really liked the egg sandwich and the fresh vegetables. Portions were on the small side. Service was just awkward, it feels like the stuff is treated bad. Coffee was meh. They don’t have a typical Israeli breakfast.
