Nice food with great atmosphere and good service.
Down side is that the window bar is freezing when there is wind from outside.
Obviously they could seal it correctly
They was room at the inside bar all along the time we were there, but they still wouldn’t move us… pity and a bit pretentious
Yudale is hands down the best food and vibe experience I’ve had in Israel.
Jerusalem was a day trip and after a long day touring, we went to Yudale for dinner.
The service was brilliant - snatching used services and giving new ones before you swallow your next bite without even knowing!
Every single person who works here is beautiful.
We told our gorgeous host, Aviad, it was a birthday (it really was) and he said “on a scale of 1-10, how hungry are you?” we replied “8” he said “leave it to me”, after which we were presented with dish upon dish of delicious foods.
The chef - Assaf - also easy on the eyes, his food made us almost weep - it was so good - we complimented him and he was so humble and thankful.
Adam - another of our hot hosts - spoke life into the wines we ordered and made some of the best recommendations.
Everyone was so gracious, embracing and lovely.
The music and atmosphere was a total vibe!
If you don’t go to Yudale, while in Jerusalem, you are a fool!
Thank you team Yudale, for a beautiful experience.
Aperol spritz bully Chandon - 8/10.
Food is original and tasty however we had to sit outside, the waitress gave one of the plates we ordered to the table next to us (they got there a lot later than us) so we had to wait. We had ordered dessert and canceled when it started raining. Only then she offered a table inside (after the table next to us had already been relocated inside). It started very good and went slowly downhill... A bit of organisation would have been nice....
Yudale is a fantastic place for celebrations and we had an amazing bachelorette party there. As soon as the staff realized we were celebrating they played great music and made sure we had a wonderful time. Every dish was delicious and the cocktails were excellent too. They even treated us to several shots throughout the evening. The atmosphere is joyful and energetic with upbeat music making it highly recommended for special occasions especially on Thursday nights
Good service, nice food but the prices are too high. The churned Kohlrabi was great, the calamari dish was nice but the shrimp was just a piece of fried dough with ״some״ filling and an egg. 30 nis for it would have been a steal and it costs 75... Maybe they are only good for specific dishes. Sadly I was not impressed.
