We were at Avi's on May 8, 2013. There was a part of eight of us and the owner and his daughter, Oshri, instantly became friends. We ended up with large quantities of absolutely delicious food, with particularly fond memories of the lamb, but everything was wonderful. I couldn't say enough good things about this restaurant. For the price point,... More

We chose this place based on previous reviews, and to be honest it was above and beyond all the reviews=) The food is amazing, the service is excellent! Avi's daughter Oshri was our server and words can not express how adorable and attentive she is. Avi himself joined us and the next thing you know we are invited to have... More

This family restaurant offers a warm, family atmosphere along with it's ample menu and good service. My fellow travelers were especially impressed with the fish they ordered, and everything we orderd was tasty. The good feeling, in addition to the food, came from the pleasant and attentive waitresses (Avi's daughter was one), and Avi the owner himself who went from... More

First Impressions: Acting on a tip from our tour guide, my friends and I sought out this Tiberian establishment. Set back a couple of blocks from Lake Galilee's shores and on a side street in front of the Leonardo Club Hotel, it's a small, humble, unpretentious "hole in the wall" family-owned restaurant. PROS: Excellent location at the heart of the... More

I have a confession..I love steaks... After several failures in israel I arrived to Avi's with no expectations. I ordered 350 grams rib eye steak and it was delicious even in Argentinian standards. My wife had a fried St. Peter's fish and said it was amazing ( can't understand people who prefer fish over such a fine meat). You have... More

We looked on Tripadvisor for advice on a restaurant in Tiberias. Out hotel was in the neighbourhood of Avi' s restaurant. We were there in April and the place was almost empty. We ordered the St Peters fish filet but it was served on a lot of soaked tomatoes, a sour salade was on the plate and some french fries.... More

The freshest, tastiest Middle Eastern cuisine you will find in Israel! Avi is a fixture at his place which adds big time to the atmosphere. He's a great guy, his staff is super friendly, and you will not soon forget how amazing the food is!

Positives: The pita breads especially the one with olive oil and green stuff on it was great. The service was good and they added a nice touch by adding a tea on the house. It was a small gesture but it makes one feel very welcome. Negatives: The grilled fish we had was bland and not tasty for our palates.... More

We were walking around Tiberias looking for a good place to eat dinner. The owner enticed us to come in to try his food. He gave us a complete dinner for a very reasonable price and did everything to make us feel at home. There was so much to choose from & everything served was delicious. The restaurant was neat...

The menu has tons of options, and my husband as a vegetarian had lots of choice. They gave us free mezze although it succeeded it just being too much food. Portions are sizeable here and in general in israel. If you are in tiberias, it is definitely worth eating at avi's. There arent tons of restaurants in town, but this... More
