Cafe Optimi Eilat

Cafe Optimi is a great spot for basic Italian cuisine. While the menu is somewhat limited—mostly catering to meat lovers—the dishes are rich in authentic Italian flavors. A nice, cozy place to enjoy a satisfying meal.

A nice café. I’d definitely recommend the shakshuka—it’s very delicious and comes with fresh bread. The fish and chips, however, felt overpriced with an uneven fish-to-chips ratio, and it didn’t come with any special sauces. The waiters were friendly and attentive, and the dishes arrived quickly. Overall, a great spot for breakfast

We ordered take away, 2 pizzas at the price of over 170 ILS, the pizza itself was fine, tasty. Better than all the other industrial pizzas around. The thing is, for that price I would expect something larger than personal sized pizza. Also, one of the pizzas, the most expensive one, had a huge cheese ball in the middle, making the cutting action pretty impossible. I would reconsider the way of serving that dish

In a shopping center with great views of the downtown Eilat area and beautiful palm trees. Can get busy during tourist time. Food was ok. Had stuffed mushrooms as appetizer and fish and chips.

The staff is really nice and fast with your order. They have French, Hebrew, and English menus and they don't roll your eyes when your wacky family asks for all three. Our waitress (Eden) was very sweet and didn't miss a beat when we ordered in three languages. The food was very good (I had the "cool salad" and haloumi always makes me happy). They have gluten free and vegan options as well! Also... They gave us napkins AND water, and if you know the bad service in Israel, you know this is a luxury!
