Yaffo Tel Aviv, Fine dining restaurant in Tel-Aviv, Israel.
Yaffo Tel Aviv is a restaurant serving Mediterranean and French-inspired dishes in an industrial-style dining room with white tablecloths. Chef Haim Cohen combines traditional recipes with contemporary cooking techniques throughout the menu.
The restaurant occupies the Electra Building on Yigal Alon Street, where Chef Cohen transformed local cooking traditions into contemporary interpretations. This transformation connects the site's culinary past with modern approaches to familiar recipes.
The menu draws from modern Tel Aviv, old Jaffa, Jerusalem, and Ashkenazi cooking styles. You see this in dishes like beef tartare and lamb skewers that reflect how people in the region eat today.
The restaurant welcomes guests daily and is wheelchair accessible, with reservation options for both the main dining area and bar-kitchen section. It is best to book ahead, especially during busy times.
