Thank you Bobzilla for your interest in helping, however I was asking for a place that ppl have been to, not just searching on trip-adviser or googling it. But I do like the fact your available to do searches for ppl.

Well, you didnt ask for peoples personal experiences, and if you did have that in mind you have to be more expressive and elaborate your question next time...

DDFers are here to help each other, not to critic and expect "costumer service"

Have a nice day

Actually, the point of having a forums is to get real people who have like interests to share with each other, leaving everyone as smart as the collective experience.
Most people are capable of doing a google search

Cherry, on the Tiberias boardwalk is a great restaurant, with Rabbi Auerbach's hechaser, it seems to be the number one spot for frum people, even saw there lots of Yerishalmis with their full garb.

Great food too!

See above. Thou every person has diff standards what a good hescher is so i recommend you ask you LOR.

I think it's time to question the reliability of that source... ;)

The "source " was reffering to the hecksher, not Hechsher

I realized the Leonardo hotels are partnered with M&M. Is it possible to use miles for a booking?

"Mesadas Avi" or Avi's restaurant is a must try. They have some of the best shnitzel and falafel I have ever had.
