Marie Antoinette

Note: This restaurant is now closed.

Marie Antoinette is a nice little restaurant/bar in Ramat HaHayall, Tel Aviv, and yes, the name might just give away the menu…French cuisine is the order of the day here. Originally this restaurant was located in the Tel Aviv neighbourhood of Florentin during the 1990s, but recently reopened its doors in this new spot in the north of Tel Aviv.

The place is nicely laid out, even perhaps a bit “posh” for the morning coffee crowd. But for those of you wanting some style, some great food, and a splash of decent wine, this is a great place to try. I sat out on the deck, as shown in the picture, with some sun filtering through the trees to keep my tanned cheeks aglow.

For ultimate value, you might want to try the Marie Meal at 89 shekels, which gives you three great courses. And don’t be afraid to try the Shakshuka- not the perfect place to try something so “urban”, but they do a great Shakshuka, really! Promise! No kidding! Perhaps it was their freshly baked bread that made the difference for me, perhaps it was just my need for eggs…whatever, worth a try. And also a quick word about the service – smiles galore and professional. Not bad at all for a Tel Aviv restaurant.

    Sorry but “Ramat HaHayall” is a mistake, many Israelis make… It is HaHayil החי”ל which stands for Hativah Yehudit Lohemet or in other words the Jewish Brigade.

    Moshe, don’t think I’ve ever seen it written as HaHayil, and if it was shown to me on a piece of paper I would probably ask you where you meant.
    And translating street names and neighbourhoods into English is always a problem…
