About this restaurant

Neighborhood gem
Healthy
Great for outdoor dining

Crafted by the visionary minds who brought you Doris Metropolitan and Badolina Bakery & Café, Hamsa emerges as a radiant gem in the culinary landscape, celebrating the vibrant flavors of Israel. Revel in the artistry of our hummus creations, succulent grilled skewers, and perfectly charred pitas. Indulge in the symphony of flavors with our salatim, a delightful array of vegetable-based delights that promise to tantalize your taste buds.

Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Yotam

From the OpenTable editors: With a Moorish arch-framed bar, clusters of olive trees, and colorful Turkish rugs, a meal at this buzzy Israeli spot is a fully immersive experience. Grab a seat in the energetic dining room or on the charming patio for shareable Middle Eastern-inspired small plates, grilled meat skewers, and arak flights. Come on Thursday evenings to be dazzled by belly dancers in traditional garb and beats from local DJs.

This was our second time to dine here. It won't be our last. The food and cocktails were excellent. The service staff were incredible. This all made for the kind of evening that we hoped it would be.

Great food and service. Highly recommend asking for Ward as a waiter, he was very knowledgeable and friendly. He brought champagne as we waited for drinks because there was a hold up at the bar. Overall great experience.
