About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
  • Innovative
Tavi is an Israeli restaurant serving made-to-order pita from a wood-fired oven, elaborately finished hummus plates, and small and large plates drawing from the same modern Israeli inspiration as its sister restaurant, Shaya. The name Tavi is inspired by the Hebrew word meaning “good or beloved” and that’s what Tavi aims to deliver to the Covington community. The menu will highlight staples from the Shaya menu plus an array of small plates, hummus, sandwiches, and slow-roasted meats.

    We are regulars at Tavi. We love going for the happy hour because it is usually less crowded and it’s such a bargain. The food is delicious. The service is always pleasant and professional. All of the staff are friendly and attentive without being hovering. The fact that this restaurant is open seven days a week is a real plus.

    Overall, it was a great dining experience. The hostess seemed a little despondent. I suspect there was very little coordination with the servers. We sat for approximately 15 minutes before a server noticed no one had taken our order yet. However, Andrea took notice and apologized for the wait. She did an excellent job taking care of us through the meal. Because of her and the great food, we will be back.

    Tia was once again a great experience. Love the ambiance, the waiter was excellent and the food superb. We had plates to share with the wild mushroom hummus, the Israeli salad and the crispy chicken with rice. All were terrific! Don’t hesitate to book a table!

    Everything was great, dined on the patio. The only complaint I have was there was so many flies. I’m not sure if there is some kind of deterrent that could be used.

    My wife and I went to Tavi to celebrate our anniversary and it was great experience. The restaurant is open and can be a bit noisy but we did not find it overwhelming. The service was outstanding and that made the dinner much more enjoyable. It was our first time at Tavi and our server explained the menu and how to make the most of the smaller plate options. We enjoyed all the courses and would highly recommend Tavi as a nice retreat in Covington.
