What does hi-tech have to do with humous? Everything! 2 Tel Aviv techies loved the mythological humous created in the original Galilee restaurant and persuaded the owners to open a branch in Tel Aviv. Now the residents and visitors in the “city that never sleeps” can enjoy the fabulous humous that keeps the northerners smiling!

Rothschild 140
Tel Aviv

The owners of Tony Vespa had a dream-to make the best pizza in Israel. While wandering around Rome as students looking for culinary adventures they stopped at a “hole-in-the wall” pizza place and lo and behold they were served the best pizza in the world! It was time to live the dream! They sent their chef to Rome to learn all the secrets, down to the last little spice.
The pizzas are baked on large rectangular trays as is the Roman custom in specially imported Italian pizza ovens. The rectangular slices are sold by the kilo with a unified price for each of the toppings. And Tony Vespa offers exceptionally high-quality toppings in combinations not to be found anywhere else. To complete this heavenly experience is the especially light and tender dough which is baked daily on premises from wheat imported from Italy. Many of the basic ingredients including the tomato sauce are also imported from Italy. Visit the Tony Vespa little Roman empire for an unforgettable pizza adventure!
