Key information

Placer is a chef-driven Kosher restaurant in Ashdod, known for its meticulous design, romantic atmosphere, and high-level service, offering a unique and elevated dining experience.

Customer perception

Customers generally praise Placer for its amazing, creative, and precise food, often considering it one of the best dining experiences in the country. The atmosphere is described as romantic and the design meticulous, with music that allows for conversation (though one review noted it as too loud). Service is frequently highlighted as high quality and attentive, with the chef-owner often interacting with guests. However, there was a critical incident involving a severe failure to accommodate a celiac dietary restriction, which resulted in a very negative experience and a lack of apology or compensation from the staff.

Additional details

One of the chef-owners also serves as a soldier in the reserves.

Dietary options

The food was good but the music was way too loud and when we asked him to turn it down they said they couldn't and we we're a group of six people and the most people that you make reservation for is four people so we had to make two reservations but there was more than enough space to have six people at one table

A restaurant of the highest level there is. It doesn't fall short of much better-known places. It starts with the meticulous design of the place, a perfect atmosphere and music at just the right volume that allows for a conversation. An excellent wine selection and high-level service with waiters who understand the food and constantly make sure that everything is in order and that everything is delicious and that nothing is missing. The highlight is of course the food, because everything around is relevant only thanks to the excellent food there. Simple food at the highest level there is, we ordered almost the entire menu and there was not even a single failure. I am writing this review after visiting the place more than twice and I was happy to see that there is consistency and we did not fall for some unusually successful evening. Each time I have been there I have had a great time, I highly recommend it, I am happy to say that this has become one of my favorite restaurants in the country. And in addition to all the praise - it turns out that the chef and owner also serves as a soldier in the reserves. What fun.

My partner and I came to celebrate Valentine's Day. When we arrived, we told the waitress that my partner has celiac disease. The waitress understood and helped us choose an appropriate dish from the menu. However, a dish with gluten-containing crumble arrived. My partner only noticed that the dish contained gluten after she had already eaten a few bites. Needless to say, it ruined the evening. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disease that damages epithelial cells in the colon following exposure to gluten and causes severe side effects. None of the staff apologized, even the manager who understood the situation didn't bother to apologize, we didn't receive any discount/gift dish/regard for what happened, as far as they were concerned, they are considering filing a lawsuit.
