Fodor's Expert Review Maayan Habira

$$ Haifa Eastern European

The decor of this meat-lovers' haven is informal: beer kegs piled in a corner; walls covered with photos of glowing restaurant reviews; and a mural of the customers painted by an art student in 1989. The Romanian family-run business has been around since 1962; today Reuven and his son Shlomi do the excellent cooking. To start, savor chopped liver, jellied calf's foot, gefilte fish, and oxtail soup. Then go to work on delectable pork spareribs, goose, or beef pastrami, which they smoke themselves. As befits a place whose name means "beer spring," an impressive selection of imported beers is on tap. In summer, diners sit outside and enjoy live music.
