Having a Party in Tel Aviv

[Kumasdaddy]

We'll be in Tel Aviv in late August and would like to through a luncheon for my mom's 70th birthday. Guests would run around 40-50 people. Ideal location would be near the sea. Kosher is not required, but would be an added bonus. I have called most of the places in the old port. Looking to spend around 150 to 200NIS.

Can anyone recommend a place anywhere from Yafo to Herzliya.

I would try Al Ha Yam in Herzliya Pituach - beautiful beachside location, good food. Another place nearby is the Sidon Beach Club right below the Sharon Hotel, very popular with locals in Herzliya. Very beachy. Then of course there's Roco, very trendy place with a beautiful location overlooking the sea, also in Herzliya Pituach.

I personally don't like Margaret Tayar. Food is strange, very heavy on the garlic, and I like garlic. It's also a small place with a small kitchen, I'm not sure they could accomodate such a large party.

try Margaret Tayar's Restaurant - 4 Retsif HaAliyah Shenei Street in Jaffa. Great food, great location overlooking the sea. you can check Frommer's review of the restaurant at
