A casual Friday afternoon walk through South Tel Aviv in search of groceries unexpectedly led us to a wonderful discovery. While window-shopping, we noticed a warm, inviting vitrine where people were sipping wine and enjoying toast sandwiches that looked irresistible. Curiosity got the better of us, and we stepped inside—only to find a charming wine bar with an open kitchen and a remarkably talented chef, Raz.
The space is intimate and thoughtfully designed, with about five seats at the bar and several small tables for couples. There’s also a cozy garden area in the back, though it’s not in use during the winter months. Sitting at the bar gave us a front-row view of the meticulous care and attention invested in each dish as it was prepared.
The menu changes every few days, a clear testament to the chef’s creativity and confidence in constantly reinventing the offerings. We sampled several first courses, each beautifully presented and full of flavor. Particularly memorable was the inventive use of finger lime, which delivered a tobiko-like texture and burst of flavor, alongside a surprising and delicious olive oil jam.
While the portions are on the smaller side and prices are relatively high, the quality and originality of the food make it worthwhile. Combined with the excellent service and relaxed yet inspiring atmosphere, the experience feels special and well thought out.
Overall, this is a place with great vibes, imaginative dishes, and a high level of professionalism. We will definitely be coming back.
