A kosher cocktail bar on Weizmann Street with an Italian-accented menu and swing music, styled as a hotel reception
Reception is a kosher cocktail bar on Weizmann Street from the Avidan group, whose founders were born in Givatayim and which also runs the Concierge and the Municipal. Its site says that from the moment you walk in it should feel like the front desk of a five-star hotel in Rome, with swing music from the 1960s to the 1980s and modern colours. The menu has Italian touches: pizzas, gnocchi, goat's cheese ravioli, fish and chips and salmon fillet, with house cocktails and wines by the glass. It is kosher under the Givatayim rabbinate, open in the evenings from Sunday to Thursday with a happy hour from 18:00 to 20:00, closed on Friday, and open on Saturday night from 20:00. It hosts events of up to 20 people, inside or outside.
