A restaurant of meat, pizza and Italian dishes at the entrance to Mi'ilya, run by a restaurateur who spent 30 years in the Netherlands
Menches is a restaurant at the entrance to Mi'ilya run by Mouin Arraf, who by its own account has been a restaurateur for 45 years: as a young man he travelled, settled in the Netherlands, married there and ran restaurants for 30 years, the first of them built on a pizza topped with shawarma that led to eight more. That pizza is still on the menu at Menches, alongside beef, veal, lamb and chicken, steaks, seafood, stir-fries, Italian dishes, pizzas made to order, salads, desserts and alcohol, with dough and sauces made on the premises without preservatives. Its page describes a European, rustic and romantic room with a view, a staff of 20, takeaway, and events of up to 20 people. The page gives its hours as 10:00 to 22:00 without naming the days, and names two sister places: Menches Plus, a pub in Mi'ilya's industrial zone that delivers, and a place on Ben Gurion Boulevard in Haifa.

Its page says the restaurant is not kosher, and it is not on the Nahariya religious council's list on the Ministry of Religious Services' kashrut portal, read on 5 October 2026, which covers Mi'ilya and names three businesses there: a goat's-milk dairy, a pastry workshop and a shawarma bar. We found no published accessibility statement, so call ahead if step-free access matters to you.
The name does not appear in the Companies Registrar, which points to a sole proprietorship or partnership rather than a company. Mi'ilya does not publish its business licence register online, so the licence could not be checked.
