The food was great, we had the לברק and the shrimps, with a side of greens.
All was tasty and cooked to perfection.
The location is beautiful, right on the track park, and well hidden from the adjacent street corner.
The price is fair, wouldn’t call it cheap. Will return :)
Poor all round. Moules Mariniere mussels were 40% empty, and salty. They don't provide bread, to mop up the sauce, you have to pay separately. I mentioned this all to the waitress. She couldn't care less. Would not recommend this place at all, plenty of other restaurants in Tel Aviv.

A disgusting place with terrible food. Even the vibe doesn’t save it. The mussels were awful. For some reason, the plate was filled with lots of empty shells with no mussels inside — why? You’re not supposed to eat those. The sauce was extremely over-salted. And they charged 25 euros for this. For 5 euros in Bulgaria, you could have a proper dish that’s much better than this.
The shrimp kebab was just as bad — why put a torn-off shrimp head on the skewer if it’s inedible? For decoration? It’s not attractive at all. As for red wine by the glass, they only had Pinot Noir and nothing else.
Overall, I strongly do not recommend this place.

The Best Spot in Tel Aviv!
I've been living in Tel Aviv for 30 years, and Shahaf is hands down one of the best places I've ever been to. The seafood is absolutely incredible - fresh, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. The service was top-notch, friendly, and attentive.
Highly, highly, highly recommended. A true qem!
