Ona Uma is an authentic Thai kitchen in the heart of Tel Aviv, founded by Rubi Hen and his wife Onauma from the Isan region of Thailand. Originally a stall at the Carmel Market, it grew into a beloved restaurant known for bold, genuine Thai flavors with no fusion compromises.

The menu celebrates traditional Isan and Thai cuisine – spicy beef salads, aromatic curries, warming soups, and generous rice and noodle dishes. Portions are meant for sharing, and the rotating daily specials are always worth asking about.

Address: Carlebach 15, Tel Aviv
