Part of CookNSolo Restaurants
Named for one of Tel Aviv’s most iconic streets, Dizengoff first landed stateside in Philadelphia over the summer of 2014. Modeled on the hummus stalls (“hummusiya”) found around every corner of Israel, Dizengoff — co-owned by Chef Mike Solomonov and Steve Cook of CookNSolo Restaurants — helped to popularize Israeli-style Hummus as a complete and satisfying meal.
After closing for expansion in August of 2023, Dizengoff re-opened in January of 2024 as a full-service restaurant with 95 seats that include a bar (plus an extended sidewalk cafe in the warmer months). Offering both lunch and dinner, the nightly menu remains centered around Hummus Bowls with house-baked Pita, with a focus on classic toppings (like Hummus Yerushalmi –– ground beef with baharat, and pine nuts). Other menu highlights are Pita Sandwiches, Mezze Salads, and Entrees, including Crispy Falafel-battered Whole Fish with cabbage and amba, and Lamb Neck with grape molasses.
Dizengoff is a founding part of CookNSolo Restaurants, a portfolio of Israeli-inspired hospitality concepts all in Philadelphia. CookNSolo is most widely-recognized for Zahav.
