Portions of this report were translated from Hebrew by Bukharian Jewish Post from the restaurant’s official website.

A new kosher Bukharian restaurant, Anor, is serving traditional Central Asian Jewish dishes in Neve Tzedek, one of Tel Aviv’s oldest neighborhoods. The kosher dining site YeahThatsKosher reported on Oct. 15, 2026, that the restaurant had opened about two months earlier at 8 HaShachar Street, under the kosher supervision of the Tel Aviv Rabbinate.

The kitchen is led by chef Yoram Savi, who works from Bukharian recipes passed down through generations, according to the report. Anor describes its approach as a contemporary interpretation of those dishes that keeps the cuisine’s flavors and its tradition of hospitality. The restaurant’s Hebrew-language website confirms the chef and the Neve Tzedek address and says the restaurant is set in the neighborhood’s historic buildings.

On the menu

YeahThatsKosher listed the menu and prices in shekels (NIS). Among the dishes it described:

• Bread and starters: Bukharian bread from the stone oven with spicy condiments, tahini and house pickles (62 NIS), and a Bukharian salad (64 NIS).
• Soups: doshpara, a root-vegetable broth with chickpeas and small meat dumplings, and lagman with Bukharian noodles and beef (62 NIS each).
• Pastries and dumplings: four steamed beef-and-onion manti (62 NIS), fried doshpara dumplings (78 NIS), and samsa filled with coarsely chopped beef (two for 58 NIS) or bone marrow (48 NIS).

• Oshpalo: a slow-cooked dish of lamb and beef with rice, carrots and chickpeas (78 NIS).
• From the fire: skewers ranging from chicken thigh and lamb kebab (62 NIS each) to goose liver (148 NIS), along with chicken tabaka and lamb spareribs (128 NIS each).

The menu also includes fish such as whole sea bass and barbounia, cuts such as entrecote and beef asado, and desserts served with pistachio ice cream, according to the report.

Events and Friday food

Anor hosts private and business events, with a private room for up to 60 guests and the full restaurant for up to 100, with menus planned with the chef, YeahThatsKosher reported. Delivery orders and gift cards are also available. The restaurant’s website also announces a Friday service, marked “coming soon,” offering home-style Bukharian food ready for pickup before Shabbat.

The address previously housed Ewa Safi, a kosher Moroccan meat restaurant that opened in 2017, according to YeahThatsKosher.
