Kalamata

Kalamata is a Greek restaurant at Kikar Kdumim 10 in Old Jaffa, Tel Aviv-Jaffa. Its setting connects Greek cooking with the layered character of Jaffa’s old city, placing the restaurant in a historic square surrounded by the area’s streets, markets and long-standing food culture.

The restaurant’s identity is closely tied to the Mediterranean. A sea-facing window brings the coastal setting into the dining experience, while the food and drinks draw on Greek culinary traditions. Kalamata presents a restaurant format rather than a takeaway-focused concept, with a food menu, a dedicated lunch menu, and a selection of wines and cocktails.

The atmosphere combines the movement of Tel Aviv’s contemporary dining scene with the heritage of Old Jaffa. That contrast gives Kalamata a setting suited to meals that are as much about place as they are about cuisine. The location works for diners exploring Kikar Kdumim, visitors looking for a Greek meal near the coast, and anyone combining a restaurant visit with time in the surrounding historic quarter.

Kalamata also has an events offering, making the restaurant relevant for hosted occasions as well as standard dining. Its menus and sea-facing location create a natural fit for meals that call for a more considered setting, including lunch, evening dining, and celebrations arranged through the restaurant.

For visitors travelling from Jerusalem, Kalamata offers a coastal dining stop within Tel Aviv-Jaffa’s Old Jaffa area. The address is easy to associate with Kikar Kdumim, while the restaurant’s Greek focus gives the meal a clear culinary direction. The combination of Greek cuisine, Mediterranean surroundings, wine and cocktails suits diners seeking a restaurant experience rooted in both food and location.
