10 Restaurants and Cafés Around Tel Aviv–Jaffa Hotel Areas

SalamTechsUpdated 5 min read

A useful food shortlist follows the day’s geography. These ten restaurant and café addresses cover Jaffa, the southern city, the centre and the marina. They are options to investigate, not a ranked tasting report. Photographs show the surrounding district or hotel where stated; they do not document the current dish or dining room. Use each venue’s own menu and booking information before travelling.

Dallal, Neve Tzedek

Choose the Neve Tzedek restaurant for a meal alongside the neighbourhood walk or a Suzanne Dellal evening. The operator identifies this venue at 10 Shabazi Street, separate from its bakery and marina restaurant. Check the correct menu and reservation for this address. From a southern promenade hotel, compare the full route before treating dinner as a quick walk after a performance.

Dallal at the marina

This is a different dining address from the Neve Tzedek restaurant: the official page lists the marina venue at 10 Eliezer Peri Street. Consider it for a northern-central waterfront day and compare Carlton or Hilton as accommodation bases. Check the table arrangement, seasonal menu and your preferred seating directly; a marina setting does not guarantee every table has the same view.

Café Xoho

Ben Yehuda Street in Tel Aviv
Location context: the surrounding area or host hotel. This is not a photograph of the restaurant interior or its current dishes. · 1950הנס פין · Public domainResized; may be cropped for display. Original via source link.

The café’s current official site places it at 73 Ben Yehuda Street, after a move in 2022. This matters when using older guides that send you to another address. Consider it for a café stop from the central waterfront rather than a Jaffa day. Verify the current menu for your meal, and leave the choice of breakfast or a longer stop to what the café offers on your date.

Café 99, Dan Tel Aviv

Location context: the surrounding area or host hotel. This is not a photograph of the restaurant interior or its current dishes. · 2012Chris Hoare · CC BY 2.0Resized; may be cropped for display. Original via source link.

Dan’s current restaurant page identifies Café 99 inside the Dan Tel Aviv hotel at 99 HaYarkon Street. Compare it for a central waterfront meal rather than travelling to another district. Check the actual service and menu before arranging the day; the operator distinguishes restaurant dining from the hotel breakfast offer. If staying elsewhere, confirm visitor access and the table independently of any hotel-room reservation.

HaAchim

Ibn Gabirol Street in Tel Aviv
Location context: the surrounding area or host hotel. This is not a photograph of the restaurant interior or its current dishes. · 2010Anatoli Axelrod · CC BY 3.0Resized; may be cropped for display. Original via source link.

The restaurant’s own page describes its Tel Aviv setting on Ibn Gabirol Street, and its menu page gives 26 Ibn Gabirol as the address. This is a city-centre meal rather than a port stop. Review the current dishes and reservation policy, then fit it to a museum or central neighbourhood day. Dietary suitability must be checked for the specific dish; a regional cooking style is not a religious certification.

Haachim Bakery, Givon Square

Givon Square in Tel Aviv
Location context: the surrounding area or host hotel. This is not a photograph of the restaurant interior or its current dishes. · 2025ישראל פרקר · CC BY 2.5Resized; may be cropped for display. Original via source link.

This bakery business lists a Tel Aviv café branch at 22 Givon Street, with sandwiches, salads and coffee. It is separate from the HaAchim restaurant above despite the similar English name. Consider it for a simple daytime stop around the eastern centre and Sarona. Confirm operation on your date before a weekend visit, and check what can be taken away if you are continuing the walk.

Ouzeria, Levinsky

A shopfront at Levinsky Market
Location context: the surrounding area or host hotel. This is not a photograph of the restaurant interior or its current dishes. · 2022Artem.G · CC BY 4.0Resized; may be cropped for display. Original via source link.

The restaurant lists 44 Matalon Street in the Levinsky district. This makes it a logical meal to compare on a southern city day instead of travelling there from the north just to return immediately. The operator publishes lunch and evening arrangements separately, so check which applies to your visit. Review ingredients and kitchen handling directly for allergies or religious dietary requirements.

Toto

Tel Aviv Museum of Art
Location context: the surrounding area or host hotel. This is not a photograph of the restaurant interior or its current dishes. · 2011Yair Haklai · CC BY-SA 3.0Resized; may be cropped for display. Original via source link.

Consider Toto alongside a Museum of Art day in the central-eastern city. The official site distinguishes restaurant and café sections, so choose the intended experience rather than making a generic booking for the name. Check the location through the venue’s contact information and confirm the current meal service. It is a planned dining option, not a guarantee of a walk-in table after a museum visit.

Alena at The Norman

Alena is the Norman’s restaurant on Nachmani Street. Its official page describes breakfast and later dining as distinct services, which makes it useful to investigate for either a morning or an evening city-centre stop. A room reservation does not establish a restaurant reservation or the meals included in your rate. Confirm outside-guest access, the table and the current menu if you are staying elsewhere.

Kishle at The Setai

Location context: the surrounding area or host hotel. This is not a photograph of the restaurant interior or its current dishes. · 2018Beko · CC BY-SA 4.0Resized; may be cropped for display. Original via source link.

The Setai’s dining page currently names Kishle as its hotel restaurant. Use that current name rather than an older restaurant listing, and confirm the meal and outside-guest access. This is a Jaffa dining option that can fit a Clock Tower day. Travelling with children requires an extra check: the hotel states a six-and-over guest policy, so do not assume every dining arrangement suits younger families.

YOUR HOTEL BASE

Connect your stay with your visit

Use a southern-central base for Neve Tzedek and Levinsky, a central waterfront base for Ben Yehuda and Dizengoff, and a Jaffa base for Kishle and the old town. These district pairings are editorial planning suggestions. Check the actual restaurant entrance and hotel route before making them the deciding factor in a booking.
