The best hummus that I have ever had!! We found street parking nearby. We shared a table with others. Service was fat. Meal was delicious!

Abu Hassan was our first introduction to Israeli hummus, and we were not disappointed. The restaurant was busy with local people and others eagerly waiting outside. Seating is on shared tables but that added to the community feel of the place. Our plentiful hummus arrived...promptly, topped with herbs, spices and chickpeas, served with fresh pitta. The hummus was creamy, filling and so very tasty, bearing little resemblance to that bought in a supermarket. We were truly stuffed when we had finished, leaving soon after, as was politely expected. For a total cost of about £8 including a soft drink each, this was also exceptionally good value. Would definitely come here again.More

We had an excellent light meal here, sitting on the sidewalk. As guests of The Jaffa is was a short walk across the street and we had shade and a nice breeze. The waitstaff was helpful and effecient.

This is a local cafe with a great reputation. It's busy and not very big but you'll find a space. There is no menu, just prices based on how much you want to eat, and you'll eat hummus. They have drinks, bread, yogurt, and onions...that you can take as accompaniments. Its absolutely great hummus. There is no ceremony: come in, sit down and order, very quick service, eat your food, pay and go. Definitely worth dropping inMore

This historic restaurant is everything as advertised. The hummus is best and we tried this Israel specialty at multiple locations before and after our visit on 3/15. Definitely a must do while visiting Jaffe (Tel Aviv). It is always busy, so you expect wait in...line to get a table. The pace fast, once you have finished this not restaurant where you linger. Enjoy the foo and continue touring Jaffe.More

Basically serves only hummus, but it totally worth the trip. Always a long line, but very fast turnaround so its ok. They serve it with pita, a tangy sauce and raw onions. It was delicious and hands down the best hummus I've ever eaten.

One of the best hummus in town and at a very good price for a big portion. 23 shekels for a big plate. Atmosphere is great too and amazing quality of the hummus itself.

As so many other reviewers have stated, the hummus here, served as it with flatbread, onion and sauce, is utterly delicious. Definitely worth finding, by far the best I have ever had and very affordable in quite an expensive city too.

Arrive early because when they run out of food, they close. I loved the hummus so much, i bought 2 cartons to take back home with me. The place is quick and service can even be a bit pushy, but it all adds to the...flare.More
