I was somehow hoping for more - Edit
It was bissy and felt a bit stressed, probably because it's so popular. The hummus itself was fine, I was not blown away as I was expected. We tried the warm hummus, not a fan at all but the original hummus was better and did the job. Not the best hummus for me in Tel Aviv.

Decent hummus restaurant - Edit
Can’t say this hummus is number one for me, but, you know, it’s subjective. Anyway it’s fresh and tasty, service is friendly and fast, the place is clean and there’s enough seats indoors and outdoors.
Read moreAlso I found “pol” - baked beans - kinda tasteless.
Don’t forget to mention that you are vegan to not to get an egg with your hummus plate.
Pros: Fresh decent hummus, Cheap
Cons: Not 100% vegan , Jerusalem hummus is still the best for me :)

Delicous hummus! - Edit
One of the best hummus places in Tel Aviv! When I was there it was very noisy and busy, but I guess that’s part of the experience as well.

Probably the best humus in Israel - Edit
An amazing humus, served either with chickpeas or ful. A popular option is the "triangle" (Meshulash in Hebrew) a trio of them all - highly recommended.

Some of the world's BEST Hummus - Edit
I am a massive hummus fan, and this place has some of the world's best hummus! Do not miss this place if you want to know why people feel that Tel Aviv has some of the world's best hummus. Light, creamy and spectacular!

One of Israel's oldest and most famous humus restaurants - Edit
The Msabbaha is the most famous dish here and it is highly recommended! (it is a variation of hummus).
Read moreAli Karawan (the founder), started to sell hummus on the streets of Jaffa and in 1959 opened his first restaurant. He passed away in 2017 when he was 85 years ago.
2 branches are located in Shivtei Israel street, the third one is located on the dolphin street, about 10min walk (next to the sea).
Bonus: Piece Of Cake is located next by! A vegan-friendly bakery offering many pastries, cakes etc.
Pros: Cheap (20NIS per a plate), Tasty, Piece Of Cake is next door

Must eat here. Really. You must. - Edit
If you come here make sure to order "Masabaha". DO NOT ask for "hummus", (its not the same).

Super hummus - Edit
This place is fast-paced, but friendly. You sit at tables with others, all eating their food quickly. I had the cold hummus, which comes with a bowl of lemon sauce, a pile of really good pita bread, and a bunch of nice white onion slices (good for dipping). The hummus was incredibly good. I was very hungry when I went in, and very full when I left. All for 20 ILS. This place warrants all the high praise it gets.
Read morePros: great hummus, inexpensive
Cons: kind of loud, fast paced -- not a place to hang out

amazing hummus, felafel and pita and v cheap - Edit
This was a great place - atmosphere was proper middle eastern and full of locals. Prices are great, everything labelled in Hebrew. I had hummus, falafel and pita and it was only 25 shekels. But - I asked for it to eat in but they did it to take away - which is fine, just a language barrier thing - but the amount of plastic waste was unbelievable - for that there was 2 plastic containers and 2 lids and an incredible 3 plastic bags!!!! Please please ask for it in or ask for no bags!! Aghh!!

Great hummus - Edit
I love Hummus, thank god i don't live in Tel Aviv because I would go to this place almost every day. I read so many good things about this place, but only when I went there I understood why the hummus is so famous. Besides the food that is amazing, the service is fast, the staff really nice and flexible, and the place convivial. We went there in the morning and it was not as busy.

Perfect on so many levels - Edit
Yaffo Hummus is very different from Jerusalem or Northern Israel.
Read moreIt's a matter of if you love it or not.
I love this place because it's open early and also on the weekends,service is fast and food is fresh and satisfying.
As a real Hummus Junky this is a Mecca for Hummus One of the best in the world.
You should order fries,salad,lemonade and falafel with your Hummus for the full on experience.
A heaven for hungry Vegans and Hummus lovers.
Pros: Fast and delicious, open early and on weekends, Full vegan meal
Cons: They close when Hummus is finished, They might seat others next to you, You'll get addicted guaranteed

Abu Hassan - Edit
Fantastic Msabaha - I would not be too wrong if I would say that it is "the best". It is kind of a legend.
Read moreFor some people, the negatives would be that at rush hours you might find yourself sharing the table with others, and you can't sit for hours - people are waiting for their turn. But it is really not that bad.
