What people say about Zahav

It has been noted numerous times that what makes a meal at Zahav a special experience for customers are the delicious laffa bread, the smooth hummus, and the tasty lamb dishes. The service is considered attentive but not over-formal, while a great number of customers enjoy the abundance of the tasting menu offered by the restaurant. The main warnings concern practical matters: the difficulty of getting reservations and the large cost associated with dinner at Zahav.

Restaurant overview

About Zahav

Zahav is a contemporary tasting-menu concept featuring Israeli food at an Israeli restaurant located in Philadelphia, Society Hill. The kitchen has been influenced by the cuisine of Israel and other parts of the Middle East, with tahini-infused hummus, vegetable salad, charcoal grilling, and freshly baked bread making up the bulk of the food.

It is particularly well suited for first-time customers because it goes through several cuisines instead of focusing on the choice of one entree. Seasonal vegetables, raw dishes, grilled skewers, and large dishes placed at the center of the table make a great progression throughout the meal.

People looking for Israeli food at a Philadelphia restaurant should visit Zahav due to the bold seasoning, live-fire cooking, and lively dining space. The menu changes, but the hummus, salad, and the distinctive preparation of lamb stay at the core of the menu.
