About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Great for outdoor dining
  • Healthy
The Blondinit is a family restaurant—ours, and, we hope, yours. Welcome!

Blondinit is Israeli soul food, blending Mediterranean flavors with influences from North Africa, Europe, and Asia. Our menu reflects thousands of years of cultural exchange, creating something truly delicious.

Owned by the Sade family—Solomon, Inda, and daughters Arielle and Sophie—The Blondinit brings authentic Israeli cuisine to Westport. Our food is 100% authentic. We import key ingredients, including pickles, tahini, and spices, directly from Israel. Even our pitas come from an Israeli-owned bakery in Brooklyn.

Israeli food is deeply cross-cultural. Many iconic dishes, like Sabich, originated from neighboring countries and evolved in Israel. Our menu features traditional favorites—falafel, shawarma, grilled meats—along with unique dishes like Baklava Pancakes and Chicken Shawarma Waffles.

We look forward to welcoming you to our table!

    Food is fabulous - we enjoyed appetizers pitas, hummus, artichokes, Israel salad then Schnitzel, and skewers. We have dined here many times. Took over an hour for the mains to arrive despite the staff telling us multiple times they were almost ready. The kitchen makes everything from scratch and was worth the wait.

    Great service and a lovely atmosphere on a Friday night. There was live music on the street and a bustling environment with the other restaurants also buzzing with patrons. Food was very tasty - we had cauliflower, falafel, and whipped feta to start — all very fresh and complimented by the warm, freshly baked pita. My wife had schnitzel over a Greek salad, and I had a chicken thigh skewer for mains. Both were delicious. We’ll be back to try other items on the menu and highly recommend folks give this place a try.

    I would not call the noice level "energetic." That's a euphemism for "painfully loud." Westport allows screaming adolescents a/k/a "musicians" to play amplified "music" on the streets amidst several restaurants. It made eating extremely unpleasant. Food was good, with exceptons. Pita bread was flat and doughy, not good. Schnitzel was good but a bit dry, always a risk that a restaurant should have been able to avoid. Branzino very good but too much garlic. Pistachio cheesecake was sublime. We ate at the bar to preserve our eardrums from the outside cacophony. Bartender was nce and helpful but often too busy to respond to service.

    The food was delicious but it took a very long time for the food to come. It was very hot in the restaurant even with the AC.

    Great food, service and vibes! Harissa wings, moroccan cigars and whipped feta were out of this world I can’t wait to go back and try more!
