A small cafe of Israeli cuisine in the Osmolovka area.
The design is quite simple and modern. Visitors with dogs are welcome here.
It is quite crowded on weekends, so it is better to book a table in advance.
The menu features the main dishes of Israeli cuisine, especially I would like to mention a wide range of hummus.
Extraordinary homemade lemonades, pomegranate wine and coffee with cardamom, allow you to fully immerse yourself in the Israeli surroundings.
The portions are quite large, the staff drowns out the sharpness of the dish.
On the downside, I personally lacked musical accompaniment (it was too quiet) and the wind blew very strongly from the window.

The most delicious place! It is absolutely necessary to go here for authentic cuisine. Delicious, neat, cozy. I want to come back several times to try the whole menu. There are no disadvantages. The waiter warned about the presence of hot sauce in the shawarma on the plate (it was lying on the edge of the plate, not in the main dish), which is also important for those who cannot have spicy. I have already returned home to Moscow, but I still remember the delicious food. I will definitely come to Minsk next time!

A good place to have a snack in an interesting atmosphere. Excellent design, good Israeli street food menu. The prices are quite adequate. I really liked the falafel and hummus, but the menu is big, there's still a lot to try)

A tiny cafe with Israeli street food 2 steps from the Alivaria factory. Tasty, fast, inexpensive- surprisingly, but all 3 components coincided here. We got to a business lunch and had a great meal. You can see that there are a lot of regulars in the cafe, and this is a sure sign that the place is good.

The building is located in the atmospheric Osmolovka district, on a street of two-storey houses, each of which has some kind of institution. The establishment itself has a pleasant Jewish entourage. The menu is varied and, at the present time, it can be said to be budget-friendly. We took a set of snacks and I can immediately say that muammara is just a top, but matbukha, meze and tabouleh are also delicious. They washed it all down with lemonade, the consistency resembles a good homemade limoncello, but without alcohol. In short, one of the best establishments in the city with exotic cuisine, I recommend you to visit.

Walking around Osmolovka can take you to Bethengaf. Of the other ways, except for the recommendations of not indifferent tribesmen. The interior is unusual, as is the staff. From a good point of view, even if the waitress / receptionist / goddess of this place didn't like you and looked at you with contempt, the food will still be brought, even without prepayment. Street food has been announced. Street food has been brought. Everything is edible except the spicy pasta. It was impossible to eat everything that was next to her, but we ate it - we'll regret it tomorrow. We ordered A Sweet Bubaleh. According to the goddess, this is a reference to the film. To the question "why is this color (in the photo), and not yellow?" In response, they heard: "The original green and ..." I couldn't remember the rest of the words, I got stuck a little.
After payment, the goddess softened a little, or maybe because we were the last visitors and we can finally close the damn door and ...
There are errors in the text referring to the walls of the institution, on which the inscriptions in "native" are also erroneous (according to all, too, the goddess). If you are looking for such an experience, then you can try it. But, be careful! Osmolovka does not forgive mistakes.

It is a very calm and atmospheric place. You won't come here to sit for two hours, rather to eat and run away about your business) the food is very tasty, the hummus with pepper is amazing. I tried falafel - it's perfectly fried, with sauce, vegetables and flatbread - it's the most if you want to eat, but not suffocate) fast and polite service, dishes for two were taken out literally in 10 minutes. We will definitely come again)

I love Middle Eastern cuisine, but it turns out that there is no Israeli cuisine)
We were there on Sunday morning - no one, the only table was occupied. The service was very good, very slightly intrusive, removing the plates that were still full at once. Food: my favorite babaganush was absent, everything was delicious in the meze set, but the portions! For the first time in my life and in all my travels, I have seen such a pitch: slightly on the bottom and smeared on the walls. There is no shakshuka, thanks to the Jews that the dish has become popular, I often and a lot eat it in other establishments and at home. The big disappointment is shawarma. I lived in the Middle East, and there's sauce and meat everywhere! There is no meat to be found here, everything from potatoes to cabbage is dry and stuffed. My teenage son didn't eat, and he's a big fan. It's delicious (but bland) in a kebab the kebab itself, nasty side dish. The total is that they smeared something delicious on the bottom of the bowls, the rest of the 3 main dishes out of 3 are much lower than average. We're unlikely to visit again

A magnificent Israeli cafe, everything is very tasty and authentic. Separately, I will note the hot sauce - it is really spicy and similar to shug. Hummus and thin are definitely true. From the descriptions, probably the taste of pickles is a little bit not "typical Israeli", no, they are good and tasty, but still slightly different from the typical "hamutsim" in Israel. But Lemonana is just a standard here, in Israel you will not find such a rich and delicious lemonana in every cafe) And all this is in the center of Minsk. You won't regret coming in.
According to the maintenance, everything is top, they were ready quickly, the girls are friendly.
Even in the warmer months, the veranda is just flying away.

And most importantly, the friendly staff; and very (!) delicious Cuisine! The portions are large, the prices are affordable. We barely finished 4 dishes for two.
Suitable for both vegetarians and meat eaters, there are dishes with and without a spice (sauces), in general, everything is as it is customary in the East! Breaded Chicken Schnitzel and Sea Buckthorn tea are simply Divine!!

I was not a petitioner, I was an electrician. It is difficult to see such a clean kitchen anywhere. Therefore, there is no need to worry about the cleanliness of the dishes and the quality of the prepared products.
I used to work in one large network, it's rare for there to be cleanliness. It depends a lot on the chef and the shift supervisor.

It is a very comfortable place to chat and drink a good coffee. But like almost everywhere with very inattentive waiters.

Great cafe! We had dinner here with a girl, everything was fine. I really liked the hummus with pine nuts. The pancakes that fell to him were soft, fragrant and delicious. The schnitzel in the drink and the shwarma left vivid impressions, large hearty portions, exceeded expectations, and many thanks to the chefs who cook the food so well. A special impression and taste sensations were left by the hot sauce that was served with the shwarma, it really is a fire, because one seed burned the whole mouth-I think it's wonderful! I really liked the malabi dessert, I'm sure we'll come back to enjoy it. Thank you to the waitress who served us! January 28, 2025

I love Bethengave, but today's hike was disappointing.
1. There was a lot (a lot!) in chicken meat. bones and cartilage, both in my dish and in my partner's dish.
2. because of the open doors, mosquitoes, midges, and moths were flying inside the establishment - they constantly had to be waved away, which distracted from food. if we were ready for "nature near the face", we would choose a table on the terrace.
3. Sticky table... it was unpleasant to touch
4. not all glasses are LIKE THIS in the institution, but they brought us one that has a rather narrow bottom, relative to the main volume. I understand that this is partly our fault, too, but the glass turned over :(
we cleaned up after ourselves, but the workers did not notice at the moment, respectively, they did not help.
It was nice that the food was brought VERY quickly

I've been to this cafe several times, everything is super: the dishes, the atmosphere, the incredible taste, BUT the staff is just disgusting. Every time I enter the restaurant, I get an irritated look in my direction, after the menu is given out, complete disregard begins. When the eternally dissatisfied and tired waiter comes to take the order, all the grief and sadness is reflected in his eyes and on his face. For any clarifying question, you get a strange look and a tone as if the waiter is being held hostage there and forced to work 24/7.
To sum up, the kitchen is just super, it makes you come back no matter what! But the staff is so disgusting that sometimes there is a wild desire not to leave a tip, it really spoils the whole incredible atmosphere of the cafe.

I've been to this place so many times! I've been going to them since 2020, when there were still several other establishments called Cimes. It is very tasty, the price / quality ratio is fully justified. I've tried a lot of different drinks, I really like cider, homemade to taste. But mead is even better! Falafel is just wonderful here, most often I take dishes with it. I like eating at this place so much that I took all my friends there, especially those who do not live in Minsk)
For me, the disadvantage of this place is that it is very small. Unfortunately, it is often difficult to get there without booking a table. I dream that they have another point) I like everything about the design of the room, it's quite atmospheric)
As for the service, I guess I was very lucky) I have never had any terrible situations related to him. Most often it came across that Alexey met and served us. He was very polite about the composition of the dish to the guys who were there for the first time. It always shows what will be spicy in the dish (and there really are very spicy sauces)

The staff is the face of the institution. In this case, it is a dissatisfied, insipid, indifferent, arrogant face🗿It seems that the girls have their own more important consultation on discussing their everyday issues than the concerns that arise with respect to the guests of this institution) the kitchen is mediocre, everything looks delicious., but for some reason it doesn't taste like it was cooked without a soul (I tried Israeli cuisine more than once and in general I have an idea how it can be delicious) 🙂 In general, it does not cause a repeated desire to return, in particular, even more because of the staff. But the cooking time was pleasant, I did not have to wait long. You can go once.

The waiter girl, at the moment when I went to the bathroom, took the dish without my knowledge and threw it away. When asked why this happened, she said that her friend was to blame, who did not ask to leave the dish (how should she even know what to do with someone else's dish). They gave a discount disproportionate to the damage.
As for the dish itself, the falafel in the flatbread was bitter, it was all on top, respectively, you first eat bread with falafem, and then bread with salad. In general, it's definitely not a seven-dollar dish.
The impressions were not very good from the institution
