About this place
Owned and operated by an Israeli family, Ha Ya’s is far and away the tastiest and most authentic Israeli cuisine in Shanghai. Israeli food incorporates Mediterranean and European flavors to create a deliciously fresh menu full of unique veggie and meat dishes. Following kosher practices, this restaurant is perfect for vegetarians, as meat and veggie dishes are carefully labeled on the menu and cooked separately.
The décor is simple, open and clean with bright Mediterranean colors tastefully placed throughout the restaurant. It is the food here, however, that makes the restaurant worth a visit. Do not miss the homemade hummus and pita (simply delicious, and also for sale at the international grocery store, City Market), and the tzatziki for starters. We also loved the Israeli and Greek salads as a compliment to our main courses, which were amazing. I recommend the falafel, chicken shawarma and the schnitzel – all healthy servings that ensure customers will not leave hungry!
