Founded in the heart of Tel Aviv by Chef Guy Ariche and partners Ido Kessler, Nitzan Dayan, and Omri Amar, Santi challenges traditional conventions and offers a dining experience that is as innovative as it is unforgettable.
Chef Guy Ariche is a rising star in Israeli gastronomy.

Under Chef Ariche’s direction, Santi’s menu blends global techniques with local ingredients, creating dishes that are as thoughtful as they are bold. Every plate tells a story, delivering an experience that resonates long after the meal is over.
Santi transcends the boundaries of conventional dining. The restaurant’s philosophy centers on creating a small yet boundless space where high-style hospitality meets precise, knowledge-rich service. Refined yet approachable, Santi bridges the gap between sophistication and accessibility.
At the heart of Santi’s design is a commitment to merging food creation and presentation into a seamless narrative.
