About Café Noir
Café Noir opened in 1997, founded by the late Rafi Bader with Gideon Eliyahu, to bring European food culture to Tel Aviv. On Ahad Ha’am Street, it cooks French and Italian dishes with Mediterranean touches, handmade pasta, fish and its well-known schnitzel, beside a changing menu of seasonal specials; lunch is busy, and the evenings are romantic.
Opening hours, prices and seasonal openings change, so please check with Café Noir before you go.
