Levan at the Cinémathèque ReviewWith dazzling views of the Old City walls, Mount Zion, and the ancient City of David, the terrace of this restaurant has been an absolute must for a meal or coffee and dessert, from late April until November (and whenever the weather is warm enough in winter). Unfortunately, during recent renovations the terrace was enclosed with dark glass that takes away from the view, and a horizontal, eye-level metal strip now bisects the panorama. Still, the darkened vista is out there and maybe the Cinémathèque will someday undo the damage. The menu here lets the freshest vegetables, finest herbs, and wonderful breads and cheeses speak for themselves. You can feast on a country salad and an order of freshly baked house bread (served with fresh herbs and olive oil, and highly recommended); or try the soups, homemade pastas, and excellent country-style sandwiches. There's a full bar with a good array of wines. Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice. Please be sure to confirm all rates and details directly with the companies in question before planning your trip. Related Features

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
