On our first day in Israel, beginning a fifteen-day trip, we walked from our hotel near the Tel Aviv beachfront to Jaffa. On the way back, we stopped at this restaurant for dinner. The location is wonderful: it overlooks the Mediterranean, immediately to the west. Long-range, one can see the entire Tel Aviv beachfront, to the north. The service was... More

The schnitzel I had at Aladin proved to be the best one I ever tried. No exaggerations. Very big one, crusty on the outer side and soft inside. Oh, God, this memory will stay with me till the rest of my life! This restaurant located in Jaffa near the Saint Peter’s Church boasts spectacular views on the Tel Aviv shore... More

After a morning of seeing the many arts and sculpture shops/workshops hidden away in the warren of old Jaffa, you will notice there is a good selection of eateries from which to choose your lunch. Aladin, a restaurant perched on the edge of Jaffa, offers one the chance to dine outdoors on a small terrace, so you can enjoy the... More

Outdoor seating was great, you cannot beat the view! Prices were reasonable and we very much enojed our lunch. The WC located outiside but was clean. I would... More

Okay, we didn't taste a food there, so cannot judge. But when you come to the restaurant, you expect at least a smile, but not the police-like questioning "are you for the lunch or not?", "only two people or more?" "sit here!". As for me, the only reaction for that was to choose another restaurant with the terrace/

Went there last month. It was a very hot day and the humidity was high. We aat on the balcony, got a perfect view of the sea and Tel Aviv. The owner was very nice. I think the prices were a little bit high and also the WC was out side (but very clean!) which was not comfortable but overall... More

Aladin - a breathtaking view of Ttel Aviv's skyline and still catching the great atmosphere of the old city of Jaffa. Food was ok, service was ok and the views are fantastic but you have to stand up to see them. Not overly expensive for the location and food and not as good as Aboulafia.

Walking around the top of old Jaffa, I spied this balcony overlooking the sea and just had to go sit for awhile even though it was past the lunch hour. What a panoramic view of the water and Tel Aviv, complete with an old minaret beside the restaurant. Just the view Aladdin would have had from his flying carpet.! As... More
