LOKAL: A Cozy Road Inn Serving Exceptional Burgers and Chicken in Tel Aviv

Dining travel guide

Address: Ahad Ha'Am St 30, Tel Aviv-Yafo, 6515105

Phone: 054-9576348

I recently had the pleasure of dining at LOKAL, a humble yet present road inn located on Ahad Ha’am street in Tel Aviv. This establishment was born out of a partnership between Alon Peled and Aviv Cohen, who raised a very efficient chicken startup in their crowded apartment during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The menu at LOKAL is concise but impressive, offering a burger, chicken, and vegan option with fries on the side and a large container of kombucha that can come plain or alcoholic. I opted for the Smashburger meal, which included 200 grams of aged meat, American cheese, house sauce, house pickles, lettuce, and onion served with chips and a drink for NIS 72.00. The burger was cooked to perfection on a plancha with a dedicated iron weight, resulting in a patty that was neither too crispy nor too juicy. The Koji salt and cheddar cheese added a unique flavor profile that elevated the burger to something truly exceptional. The homemade sauce was also outstanding, completing the burger in a truly satisfying way.

My dining companion opted for the Crispy Chicken Dinner, which was served with garlic aioli, homemade pickles, garlic pepper sauce, and fermented honey, American cheese, and lettuce for NIS 72.00. The chicken breast was marinated in ravioli and spices, resulting in a super crispy coating that was incredibly delicious. The additional sauces and toppings made for a flavor explosion that we both thoroughly enjoyed.

The restaurant’s atmosphere is humble and unpretentious, with a focus on providing customers with high-quality food and drink in a cozy setting. The staff were friendly and accommodating, making us feel right at home.

Overall, LOKAL is an outstanding addition to the Tel Aviv food scene. The restaurant’s dedication to providing customers with delicious, high-quality food in a cozy atmosphere is evident in every aspect of the dining experience. I highly recommend stopping by LOKAL for a meal that is sure to satisfy both your taste buds and your soul.

Bella and Charlie: A Hidden Gem for Kosher Food and Cocktails in Tnuvot Industrial Area | Restaurant Review

Bella and Charlie: A Hidden Gem for Kosher Food and Cocktails in Tnuvot Industrial Area | Restaurant Review

Bella and Charlie is a hidden gem of a bar and restaurant in the Tnuvot industrial area. The warm and family atmosphere, excellent service, and delicious kosher food make it a great place to hang out with friends and family. The menu is diverse and offers a range of options, including some great vegetarian and vegan options. The schnitzel is definitely a legend and is served crispy coated with chicken breast, fries, and green salad. My personal favorite was the My Wife Fergit, a tortilla filled with spicy tomato salad sprinkled with tahini, amba, pickled lemon, and arissa. The Beyond Meat hamburger is also a great choice for vegan foodies, consisting of pea protein, lettuce, tomato, pickled cucumber, and purple onion. The antipasto is a carnival of roasted and baked vegetables, seasoned in different styles and served hot. We loved the Chicken pastia, a crispy cigar leaves filled with seasoned chicken and fried onions garnished with raw tahini and silan. The desserts are not to be missed, especially the Carmino, a velvety chocolate cream with crème brûlée in the center on a crunchy bed of dark chocolate, nougat, and pretzels. The tropical Mango dessert is also fantastic, with a bed of hazelnut meringue, mango cream, and vanilla cream covered in a refreshing mango sauce. The cocktails are creative and fun, with the Good Vibes being my personal favorite. Overall, Bella and Charlie is a great spot for anyone looking for good food, good music, and a good time.

Zorba, An amazing Pita fastfood stand Netanya

Zorba, An amazing Pita fastfood stand Netanya

A friend highly recommended Zorba's pita, so much so that my stomach was already rumbling from his vivid descriptions. Despite the rainy weather, we rushed over to the Vatikim neighborhood in Netanya where a makeshift parking lot leads to a cluster of food establishments with Zorba's at the center. The small shop had a long line, but it was worth the wait to witness the chef expertly prepare a variety of dishes, including the signature Ontario pita with slow-cooked meat. The pita was a delight to the senses, indulgent and packed with flavor. The combination of tender meat, tahini, cheese salad, amba, chimi'zuri and garlic was masterfully crafted by an artisan who takes pride in satisfying his customers' cravings. It was a dish that reminded me of my mother's home cooking, and I couldn't resist finishing it despite its large portion. Zorba's menu also offers other delicious options such as young chicken, Iraqi kebab, and light liver pita. And if you're feeling adventurous, try the local specialty, the Netanya sponge, which is a must-try. To complete the meal, a shot of ouzo for 5 NIS and some pickles on the side are the perfect companions. In our opinion, Zorba's pita surpasses even the most popular shawarma places in town. It's a warmly recommended culinary experience that shouldn't be missed.
