This local restaurant run by a family for a long time. The service is excellent. But the best thing is the hummus. It is delicious and the serving is big. Very cheap. Can't recommend enough

The food is amazing.The hummus is the best hummus in Israel for me and its price is fair, in addition they serve you there a lot of free delicious side dishes. The vibes there is very traditional and suitable for families . I recommend you...to eat there in the morning because it’s the best as a breakfast.More

After long walk on the beach we were ready for some good hummus. This place is very good choice. We arrived at noon and were lucky to find a table as it got very busy. We ordered our hummus plates that came with side dishes...of majadra, burgul and pickles. Recommended!More

Hummus is almost a religion in Israel, so for sure some locals will hate me for this post, since everyone have their best Hummus. There are always people in, the Hummus is fresh all the time, they give you complimentary Falafel, Majadra, Burgul and pickles....Just try, you will not be sorry.More

I am a big fan of hummous and have tried some of the most regarded hummous restaurants in Israel. This is definitely the best one. It is a small simple looking place. They serve different dishes of humous as well as nice side dishes such...as falafel, majadra and salad. The hummous is incredible. We shared 3 plates. The Mashausha and Beef ones are must haves, and the most memorable ones I ever ate. Service is good, prices are ridiculous. To sum-authentic best ever hummous. ובעברית בקצרה:החומוס הטוב במדינה, מחובב חומוס מושבע. לא תתאכזבו!More

A must go-to when in Haifa. Great hummus! I highly recommend hummus with meat, but there are plenty of vegetarian options as well. They serve big portions, and it is definitely possible to share just one hummus between two people.
