Neya Restaurant

"Our experience was mixed. We were a party of 2 people and paid $240 for two starters, two entrees and only one cup of wine. There was no dish that blew my mind. The ricotta gnocchi texture was a little bit stiff and the sauce was regular. The polenta was mixed with corn and it seemed more like an “humita”, that’s a dish from South America. I guess I expected something more Italian tasting. Up to that point the experience was regular-low. However, the main courses were pretty good. The sea bass lollipops were super original. Crusty in the outside and soft inside with the tahini sauce were amazing. The salmon had a rolled zucchini as a side, and it was full of flavor and pretty good presented. The place decoration is very elegant and the service is good. Waiters are attentive and the chef gave out a few shots of arak, that was nice. In summary, it was expensive for the size/quality of the plates. I guess I expected more from the food. But overall, it was a good experience and I would return"

"This restaurant was recommended to us by multiple people and we went there for a Sunday lunch. The experience lived up to the hype! The staff was very welcoming and knowledgeable. The space is very chic and is is neat to watch the Chef & his staff prepare your food. We started with the Tabulle & the Dates Casino. They both were great but the Dates Casino was amazing. The flavors were so fresh and luscious I recommend this dish highly! We then had the Ricotta Gnocchi and Artichokes dishes that were also flavorful and delicious. The cocktail menu is well rounded and the cocktail was very well made. We walked out satiated and in admiration of the experience we just had. Overall this was an amazing experience and I highly recommend it. If I had to come back I would try more of the small plates and not get a main dish"

"I loved this restaurant!! The vibe is cool and fun. My husband and I sat at the bar where we were mesmerized by the chefs preparing all the dishes. You can tell they were using the freshest and top ingredients. I especially appreciate Shani the manager being so friendly and attentive to us and the rest of the diners. The head chef Ben Siman Tov was also super friendly going around asking how we’re enjoying our meal. Shani and Chef Ben even walked around giving out shots to whoever wanted! I did not expect my husband with a normally “simple” palate to enjoy these different dishes but he loved!! Awesome vibe, awesome staff, awesome food! Thank you!"

"We stepped into NeyaA and Such a nice vibe and atmosphere it was on a Thursday night, the DJ was playing amazing beats the food. We ordered came fast and was super authentic, tasty and Exotic. The cocktails were amazing. Don’t even get me started about their homemade desserts, which are absolute perfection highly recommend coming to this place.!!!! Kudos to the chef!!"

"Incredible experience. The flavor profiles are on point. Everything is absolutely delicious. Server Shani gave great recommendations (yellow tail sashimi, tuna crispy rice, sugar borek, campari tomato). She is friendly and provides terrific service. Beautiful presentation, and every bite is an explosion in the mouth. We had the mago dessert and it was cloudy awesomeness. Huseyin the bartender's drinks were perfection (promised land martini, Carmel beach paloma, Masada picante and neya mule. He also sent a taste of Negev nights when I said I don't like arak and if he makes my drinks, I will drink arak all day). A beautiful restaurant, lots of space but intimate."
