The place doesn't live up to its pretension. Service was terrible, atmosphere even worse and the food average. One waiter put their sleeve into my plate whilst serving another dinner. The first course, aubergine served on a pieced of cardboard, yes you're reading it right cardboard, looked more like a road kill scraped off the tarmac than food. The main dish was nice but that's it. The acoustics are absolutely terrible and the place is very very loud. Best avoid if you're entertaining guests or hoping to have a pleasant conversation along with your meal.

Amazing experience! The service was warm, professional, and truly outstanding. The food was on an incredibly high level — even as someone who doesn’t usually eat kosher, I was genuinely impressed. Everything felt thoughtful and special. Highly recommended!

Malka is one of the restaurants of Chef Eyal Shani. Each time I eat there I receive a delicious lunch of flavors and tastes. God there and you discover the novella Israeli cuisine respecting the past facing the future. A must do!!!!

The bread and vegetables dishes (that’s how the menu is written) were amazing. Our waiter at the start was lovely and recommended great dishes, but when we received the meat dishes the steak was very charred/burned on one side(they flipped it so it would be hidden). It ruined the texture and taste completely and when we asked to return/change the waiter called the manager who tried convincing us that it was normal and was overall very unpleasant and ruined the experience. After that our waiter changed attitude and kind of ignored our table. The high price for food and not so great service was not worth it…

The food was good, quality ingredients, cooked just the right way with perfect seasoning and texture. Normal TLV price slightly on the expensive end in comparison to the same dishes elsewhere but for the quality of the ingredients I think it's worth it. The service was non-existent, they kept leaving us alone without utensils or water and at some point I just started eating with my hands.
Somehow even for a Wednesday lunch they're only taking reservations while a lot of tables seemed available, so having a reservation is probably safer.
The green bean appetiter was amazing, crunchy, refreshing, satisfying.
Schnitzel is unique, very thick and not as dry as they tend to be.
Kebab comes with a bed of pita and salad which is nice.
The fish was also decent though it's priced by weight and can get over ₪150 easily for a bigger fish.
