i think its the same owner that it used to be when it was called nina s cafe they changed cause waffle bar is a franchise name same terrible service as before though must agree with you the service was this bad a year and 2 years ago!!

+1

I still dont like waffle bar that much...but IMHO it's 1,000 times better than Ninas...

Paran Waffle Bar update: service still stinks.

ime i'd disagree.   i've been there a few times, including when they were very busy, and the service was great all of them.  the only time i had bad service was when we went for lunch and the owner wasn't in.     all the other times he was there and it was running very smoothly.

if its like ninas, then the service is reeeally slow.

true...how is the service there?

[Moishebatchy]

Can anyone compare the Sheraton Tel Aviv and the Hilton Tel Aviv (aesthetically, and level of service)?

I can get the Sheraton Tel Aviv for $280/night, 12,000 points, or 4800 points + $90.

I can get the Hilton Tel Aviv for $250/night, 50,000 points, or 25,000 points +$90.

Thoughts?

Excellent. Wasn't too busy, but even when it is, I have amazing experiences there. The manager is actually a friend if mine.

I also really like that they have the ServiBell paging system. Instead of waving, one-finger-lifting, and "slichah"ing and trying to get your server's attention, you simply push a little button, and they come right over.

So far had Maoz for diner last night. Felafal Hatmani melawach  felafal for brunch today. I want to go somewhere close by for dinner. I'm staying in Nachlaot, any recommendations? I'm feeling meet, but not hungry enough for Papagios all you can eat. Hows Rimon Bistro these days?

Anyone ever have luck having a table for 2 or more, and only some people doing the Brazilian Table? #goingwithwife

Are there any restaurants that the manager is not your friend?

Friday only, 49 shekel (not including drinks). Entrance op en till about 11:30-12:00, at 12ish they stop bringing in new food.
They serve breads, cheeses, salads, fresh omelets, shakshuka. At the end they bring in pizza's,

for dairy i'd do it...with meat you'd want to ask what meat/chicken is being used for starters

nope, not yet, but at ninas, if i ate outside, i would generally have to come in to get what i needed as the service was too slow

[PlatinumGuy]

Ninas was the only time in my life I sent food back into the kitchen. They tried serving me raw salmon

I have a great respect to them though, they started the bagel trend. Before it was only Tal and avichail.

make a reservation and ask for indoor table...should be fine

unless you bring your kids with, in which case they disable it when the kid constantly presses it...
