The restaurant is located in a very beautiful spot in the Gilboa mountains, and the service was courteous and welcoming from the very beginning. However, the experience quickly changed once we received the menus — we were genuinely shocked by the extremely high and unreasonable prices.
I ordered the Beef Stroganoff for 136₪. At that price point, I expected it to be the best Beef Stroganoff I had ever had. In reality, it was a very average dish that simply did not justify the cost.
My partner ordered a hamburger for 95₪. Again, at this price, we were sure we would receive something special or gourmet. We asked for medium-rare — and while it did arrive medium-rare inside, it was dry and burnt on the outside. When ordering, we were offered add-ons for an extra 15₪, but honestly, no add-on could have saved or improved such an underwhelming dish.
The pricing is completely disconnected from the food quality — to the point that it feels almost disrespectful to customers.
Attaching photos.
first of all the food was amazing,the view, the atmosphere and the decoration is really nice. But; the service is very bad and weird, we were welcomed with a grumpy attitude and weird looks,we asked to change tables and they said everything else is unavailable even something as simple as just sitting outside. The waiters were okay but the behavior of the guy who introduced us (the host) was just unacceptable for a restaurant like this,very much disappointed. So overall i think everything is great except the service,personally with a service like that i wouldn't even think of coming back.

So outstanding!!!
Everything, and I mean everything, was 5 stars.
This is no coincidence; it is an attitude, a way of life.
The restaurant scenery and location are like taken from the nicest place in Europe.
The staff was friendly and very well trained.
House wine... exquisite and at good price.
Dishes... best you can expect. No mistakes; delicious, deep, and interesting.
Good variety of wines and beers.
Prices more than fair for this level.
I will definitely return as many times as I can.

The food was taste, great presentation. The portions are satisfying. The menu has plenty of choices. The prices aren't for a budget. Disabled and children welcome. Free parking spots bit crowded, only 2 for disabled. Nice views around. In and out seats depending on weather, nice balcony. Servings alcoholic beverages. Toilets need more cleaning attention. The waiters need a little more training in giving service and be more patience to explain about the plates. We asked for all the main dishes to been served all at once as possible. At a table of 8 people only one dish arrived and 15 minutes later additional dishes and not all at once. The coffee came in different portions, not as ordered (cold, afogato with ice cream on a disposable cup, regular espresso instead of double, etc.). The desserts that supposed to leave a good taste after all the failures, they didn't. I'm not sure to visit again.

delicious big portions. even though some of the ingredients weren't really needed, like why to add broccoli and green beans and potatoes and mushrooms and many other things over a gnocchi? keep it simple..
