In just one word. WOW We ate all the first courses and they were greate. The duck was my main dish and it was magical . We aslo share 1.3 kg of steak, and it was marvelous. The waiter's were pleasant and explaine to us...on every single dish. The wine was greate . The best kosher restaurant in Israel.More

The food is excellent, very large selection, It is in the Ritz-Carleton hotel and is everything that you would expect in a first class property, The view from the restaurant is of the marina and is very beautiful.

Supposed to be one of the best places to eat out, but was not up to expectations. The setting is nice, not exceptional, after a long wait the food arrived, the fish was delicious and other dished were poor. Expensive, fair.

We were 2 couples arriving to this 'famous 'restaurant in Herzliya, at the Ritz Carlton hotel. We were full of expectations. But from the moment that we ordered the food we noticed that the waiter was not very interested in providing us a proper service....And lo and behold it was one of the worse experiences that we have encountered in a restaurant in Israel. After a while I called on the manager of the place who spoke to the waiter in question and whom thereafter decided to stop attending to us completely. As a result of that neither food nor requests were attended timeously or properly. I am not going to write a full complaint page on our experience but suffice to say that it was a real bad one. On our way out we mentioned all what happened to us to the lady in attendance at the entrance of the restaurant, but she just shrugged her shoulders !! We are 70 years old and we are avid travelers all over the world and never we have been treated with such rudeness and careless attitude at a fine restaurant as this is one is claiming to be.More

Great food, if you are going for an evening meal the Meats are marvellous and always cooked to perfection, in my opinion the chef is a magician

We enjoyed a plentiful, hot and tasty Friday night dinner at the Herbert Samuel. It was expensive, but no more so than every other hotel Friday night dinner in Israel. For a relatively small restaurant there was food aplenty and the atmosphere was less frenetic...than in other Israeli hotels. I'd have liked to have had soft drinks included in the price of the meal but otherwise it was excellent.More

I had dinner last evening with friends. The restaurant itself is located in a lovely hotel, the Ritz-Carlton Herzliya. The restaurant is nicely appointed with a view of Herzliya Marina. There is an open kitchen in the back. Seats near the kitchen are way too...loud and noisy. We ordered one appetizer, white asparagus, and each of our party of four ordered fish. One ordered branzino with vegetables, the other three ordered Mediterranean Sea Bass, known locally as Levrak. First the good. The food was really good and beautifully presented, the server was most attentive, informative and knowledgeable. Now for the bad. Everything on the menu is a la carte which is OK. The portions are ridiculously small for the price that you pay. If you subtract the good, but over-priced bottle of white wine (Tavor Sauvignon Blanc). The bill came to $55.00 per person. The portions of sea bass were about 4 ounces each. This fish costs fresh at the market, approximately $15.00 per pound. The Branzino also at the fish market, is more expensive, but not that much more expensive. The asparagus appetizer consisted of 5-6 very slim sticks of white asparagus, a piddling amount for the price, which was about $16.50. In short, this is what I would call a snobs restaurant that wants to be elegant, exclusive and pricey. I do not have and never will have a problem paying a good price for a good meal. I am not one of those people that insists upon mammoth quantities of food at any meal. That said, I expect to be presented with a reasonably priced portion especially at these prices. The bottom line, the food is good but overpriced, and that is why I give it a rating of two. At these prices, you can eat just as well for much less. I will not return, and felt bad for my guests.More
