Aside from the crazy prices and the fact that old and new expiration dates are mixed together, this is heaven for celiacs! It is recommended to check expiration dates carefully and for the kosher-observing public to check kosherity because there are a lot of products under Zohar's supervision!
Definitely the most perfect place for those sensitive to gluten. Pastries that are hard to believe are gluten-free, soft and insanely delicious. A must for any celiac.
This is a bakery that is all about gluten-free products. This is not a cafe with tables. There is no seating or service.
The bakery is excellent. You can buy ready-made pastries, doughs, and pastries to bake at home.
A wonderful place, not fancy, and reasonable prices considering the fact that it is a gluten-free bakery. It is worth coming especially and stocking up (make room in the freezer!)

this place is awesome! they have gluten free rolls (but not separate preparation for those with allergies or celiac). Cocktails are delicious especially La Fleur, all the burgers we’ve had have been great, and the service is really fast and kind. We’ve been back multiple times because it’s so consistently great. Lots of vegan and vegetarian options and outdoor/indoor seating.
Wow! What a great place.
Was a very cute place, had tons of vegan options and noticed lots of gluten free. The vegan and non vegan were delicious. The chef came out to make sure we were getting what we wanted and service was amazing. One of the few mehadrin places in Tel Aviv. Will definitely be coming back and trying more.
I'll start with the food and drinks -
1.) Buffalo chicken wings - broken bones in almost every piece!
It was not proper pieces of wings, but rather pieces of chicken chopped through the bone, mostly pieces of shoulder part of wings with the skinny part chopped off, which makes them round and awkward,, but also chicken back (???), so it was very messy to eat, the meat was a little dry, depending on the part and small pieces of broken bones in almost every "wing" is unacceptable (this is the craziest thing to serve chicken wings like this, it's not even safe and there is absolutely no reason for this, it really blew my mind, the waiter acted surprised when I told him this, so maybe I got unlucky and they usually don't do this. Update: I searched for wings on other pictures in reviews and they actually look normal, so I guess I just got "lucky").
Also the blue cheese sauce was very thin (should be thicker, but this is no big deal).
Good thing about the wings is they are fried pretty nicely (batter tasted good and crispy under the spicy sauce) and coated well in very spicy sauce (I like spicy), but the other stuff completely ruins it.
2.) The portions are not big at all, unlike some popular review here says. A portion of tacos is just 2 small tacos. (The portions for appetizers are normal, but tacos felt even smaller than our previous appetizers)
3). The carnes (beef) tacos were tasty, but I asked to make them spicy and I guess they forgot or thought that a tiny slice of pepper on top is enough (which I tried separately and it tasted like sweet bell pepper), this is not a big deal, but a little disappointing.
4.) The fish tacos are made with deep fried fish (it says so in the menu, so there was no surprise here), which is unusual and we thought that they weren't very good, not because there was something wrong with them, but just a big chunk of deep fried fish in a taco didn't go well with guacamole.
5.) Fried calamari was good (nothing special here, pieces were small, so the ratio of batter to calamari is very high, but I kinda like that, they were fried nicely).
6.) No 0% alcohol beer - I know this type of beer is not popular in Israel, but spicy mexican food goes very well with beer and it's really disappointing they didn't have any, such an easy thing to add to a menu for people behind the wheel or who don't drink alcohol, but instead they have no gluten beer...
7.) Wife had alcohol free margarita, it was good and reasonably priced (we didn't find it in the menu, so we were wondering how much could it cost - it's 18 nis, while normal margarita is around 50)
Positives - nice atmosphere, the waiter was very pleasant, when he asked how was the food I had to ask why in the world are their "wings" like that and he seemed surprised and offered a dessert on the house, we had chocolate mousse, it was pretty good.
Overall I was disappointed with the food and I personally would not come back, although it has a fun atmosphere and good service.
P.s. My wife liked it more than me, so I can't say that I don't recommend it, I think many people will enjoy it, especially if they come for a fun atmosphere and food is secondary for them.
Tacos Luis is a never fail! The ambience, the food, the people. For those who are a bit homesick or just enjoy Mexican food, it's a MUST when visiting Jerusalem.
Also, 90% of the menu is gluten free, it's not a sterile kitchen but a very clean and organized one (if you're VERY sensitive- don't be afraid, let them know and enjoy!)
Perfect restaurant, delicious food that melts in your mouth because it's so delicious, they pay close attention to celiac and sterility, very good and loyal service, excellent atmosphere.
Highly recommend
The hummus is delicious, there are both gluten-free and spelled pitas, everyone and their limitations are addressed. Charming, kind and helpful people. Excellent experience
I have visited the restaurant twice so far and each time the experience was amazing, the food and service are definitely at a high level and you can see that they really invest and make the most of their efforts to have a good vegan or vegetarian experience for visitors, honestly it is not that different from "normal" food that is available in all the other places
I am personally a vegetarian with a sensitivity to gluten, and their large selection of dishes is amazing for me.
I highly recommend the place and their menu, I also highly recommend the desserts, especially their cheesecake and chocolate.
Kudos to the staff and the cooks and those who build the menu, you have created an amazing place!!
I wish abundance and prosperity to the place!!
I am excited about my next visit to the place :)
The tastiest gluten-free pita I've ever tasted! They really like celiacs here, they are very strict about sterility and indulge extra. I am a celiac who regularly eats falafel here
Nice place overall.
We took starters and they were nice and nothing more. We didn't fly over the food, so I'm not sure we'll go back again.
There are gluten-free markings, which is a positive point.
Nice atmosphere.
The most delicious gluten-free bread in the universe and the one with the silan is a dream and the crackers are amazing and the bagels are amazing Everything is delicious and wonderful service with a smile is the best there is
Excellent experience, we came with our daughter that has celiac, and she enjoyed the food and the desert, many thanks to Lior the owner and the staff that made sure she can eat safely and enjoy her lunch. The vanilla milkshake is from Ben&Jeris vanilla ice cream.
We were at a concert at the cafe's stunning festival
An amazing initiative that combines memory and commemoration of those who fell in the neighborhood with amazing music and a fun, homey family atmosphere
Beyond that, lovely people! Wonderful service and personal attention
Excellent food to start the day with or have lunch with after work, and for all celiacs, it's worth coming!
In addition, there is a gallery of stunning and beautiful gifts and housewares!

Had a delicious gluten free meal there. This is a self service establishment, with a lovely atmosphere. Quiet jazz music in the background, diners with their pets and capable staff.
The food itself was delicious and the chicken especially was great value.
Will definitely go again.
I have Celiac and restaurants with a lot of gluten free options are few and far between. This restaurant had an extensive gluten free menu and the staff were knowledgeable and made sure my food was safe. I was served by Roni and she helped me translate the menu from Hebrew to English and was able to answer all of my food-related questions. Everything I ate was good, though it wasn’t anything to write home about. I had beef skewers with white rice, gf pad thai, and vanilla mochi which came to a total of $32.42. I would definitely eat here again!
Would not recommend. We waited 1,5 hours for 2 pizzas to arrive, even though we live very close to the restaurant. The gluten-free pizza is VERY small, not a lot of value for your money. The pizza was not a good experience to eat. Very dry, almost no sauce. Disappointing way to end the weekend.
I gave 2 stars because the ingredients were fresh, and I admire them for offering a gluten-free pizza in the first place.
It's fun to have this place, there is delicious falafel, gluten-free and low-carb, which are also fun and the service is friendly
It would be nice if there were also napkins, but it can be managed

The food is delicious and varied. Great service.
We asked for food with a million special requests, vegan, gluten-free... and we received everything in a great way with cooperation between all the waiters, who knew exactly what everyone ordered. The restaurant is full and there is still privacy.
Excellent restaurant. Italian village atmosphere. The most authentic Italian food there is. Excellent products. And most importantly - gluten-free friendly! Score of 100
We were a couple plus a picky 14 year old celiac girl. The food was excellent! Really tasty and generous portions. The staff was inviting and smiling.
I have nothing bad to say.
Highly recommend!!
The place has a selection of food that can suit everyone.
There is vegan and gluten-free for people who avoid it.
The food was delicious and satisfying, the service was very good, they took care of everything we wanted and the atmosphere in the place was very pleasant.
