Orna and Ella's Cookbook
One of the best restaurants in the Shenkin area is Orna and Ella's bistro.

For years now, this charming little restaurant has kept its high quality food and professional service.  Opened over 11 years ago by two women called Orna and Ella, this place has excellent food for fair prices.  Mostly influenced by Italian cuisine, the restaurant always offers new interesting dishes on top of its regular plates, some of which have become legendary.

The menu has a perfect balance between Vegetables, Pasta and Meat dishes.  Order the fresh homemade Pasta or the famous Sweet Potato fritters, or try the Meat and Fish if you are in for a meal. 

In addition there is a selection of very good breakfasts served until 13:00.  Make sure you make a reservation since the place is usually packed. Oh, And you really must take one dessert, some people are almost addicted to their sweet selection.

Open: Sun-Fri 10:00-00:00, Sat 11:00-00:00
Address: 33 Shenkin St.
Tel: (03) 620-4753

One of my favorite Tel Aviv restaurants!

I am SO glad that your site added this wonderful restaurant, one of my favorite in Tel Aviv. The restaurant does serve fabulous food at a reasonable price. Great service, fun atmosphere in a funky, yuppie neighborhood. I make it a must stop on every one of my too-infrequent visits to the city.

This is a great restaurant for a group of friends, because there is something for almost everyone. I agree on the desserts -- wonderful.

If you go, keep at eye out for my friend Aeyal Gross, a professor of international law at Tel Aviv University. He and his partner Ofer eat there two or three times a week. If you meet them, send them "dash hama" from me!

Local recommendation makes good

The front desk person at our hotel said she eats at Orna & Ella every week with her family. We now understand why.

Well-cooked, honest & reasonably-priced food. The atmosphere and service are unpretenious, but welcoming.

Caveat: the sign outside is in Hebrew only. Easy to miss.

Disappointing...plus Food Poisoning!!

I was so excited to try Orna and Ella after I read the reviews on this website! Unfortunately, they were out of almost all of the entrees we selected, and the food did not live up to the hype! To make matters worse, I got a severe case of food poisoning from the meal!
