California Market is one of the oldest places in the market. When the brothers were in their 40’s, they began selling a variety of nuts, snacks, and dried fruits. Since then, the market boasts about the many types of unique dried fruits available there, like banana, mango and papaya. The roasting is done on site, by hand, by only the most experienced in this art.

Bourekas Penso
When one mentions Levinsky Market, instantaneously, the name Bourekas Penso comes to mind. Since 1965, Penso has sold homemade Turkish bourekas, large and authentic, prepared on site, from the kneading of the dough through serving them hot from the oven. Cheese, spinach, and kashkaval (Italian sheep’s milk cheese) are among some of the popular choices. There are delicious add-ons available, including hard-boiled eggs. Patrons often leave with a loaf of freshly baked bread as well, and wash it all down with an ayran, a satisfying, Turkish yogurt drink.
Sabich Tchernikovsky
Sabich Tchernikovsky is legendary for its famous dish, and all thanks to epic founder Efi, who invented a new approach to making sabich. Even today, this restaurant works solely according to Efi’s values including tender pita bread, and a precise arrangement of the layers of this classic sandwich. The key is that each bite will include every ingredient. Be sure not to turn down the famous, tangy amba sauce, unless you are prepared to receive strange looks from other patrons!
Bialik cafe
The neighborhood-hangout feel and the old-fashioned chrome bar stools and wooden tables that make this place stand out. Evenings ring with live music.
Ha’Kosem
The acclaimed Eric Rosenthal was nicknamed ‘The Magician’, being one of the top wizards of falafel in the land of Israel. Ha’Kosem set the hummus and falafel standards for the competition throughout Tel Aviv, from the level of cleanliness, to the meticulous service. The famous falafel bursts with fresh coriander, which enhances the flavors of this traditional dish. The hummus is homemade, and the pita bread is gourmet. Over the years, Rosenthal’s popular restaurant has made quite a name for itself, as everyone knows that ‘The Magician’ prepares the finest Israeli food, served in an exceptional manner. From shawarma, to sabich, to shakshuka, Ha’Kosem successfully fills the stomachs of hundreds of hungry diners every day!
Turk Lachmajun
Turk Lachmajun not only has one of the best shawarmas in Israel, but also a full Turkish menu! Hunger enducing smells engulf visitors the moment they walk in, which has been the case since this restaurant was established. On the menu, one can find a thin and perfected lachmajun pita, a selection of stuffed vegetables, and kebabs to die for. This restaurant is always packed with hungry diners who know where to find satisfaction!
Itzik Hagadol
A boutique deli for pieces of Wagyu meat and quality local beef, and a selection of great Itzik salads to take home.
Yom Tov Deli
In 1947, Yomtov Levy had already opened a delicatessen in Turkey. When he arrived in Tel Aviv in the sixties, he envisioned his deli opening once again. Yom Tov Deli proudly serves homemade marzipan, jam, and almond cookies. On the savory side, cheeses, salads, and pickled fish quench patron’s appetites. Shopping at Yom Tov always turns out a tad pricier than expected though, as it is too easy to succumb to delicious treats which weren’t on your intended shopping list!
