About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Good for special occasions
  • Good for business meals
Tavi is an Israeli restaurant serving made-to-order pita from a wood-fired oven, elaborately finished hummus plates, and small and large plates drawing from the same modern Israeli inspiration as its sister restaurant, Shaya. The name Tavi is inspired by the Hebrew word meaning “good or beloved” and that’s what Tavi aims to deliver to the Covington community. The menu will highlight staples from the Shaya menu plus an array of small plates, hummus, sandwiches, and slow-roasted meats.

    We enjoyed our dinner- hummus with fried chicken, Israeli salad, and the steak! Was awesome. Our service was very good as well! Our waitress guided us as what to order. We will definitely return.

    First time at Tavi, Celebrating our Anniversary. We had the best time. Our server Mark was outstanding. He was very attentive. We definitely felt special. Our food was incredible. We ordered something from each section. Do not leave without ordering dessert. This place is run like a well oiled machine. Will be back soon.

    Tavi is a breath of fresh air! I love the clean, open decor and feel comfortable enjoying the delicious middle eastern delights. I tried the Kafta this time with my meza choices and a new magic drink. Yummy and refreshing.

    A lovely dining space with a great menu. We started with the wild mushroom hummus and baba ganoush and split the Israeli salad and gulf shrimp kebab. Everything was good but the kebab phenomenal. They have a decent wine list and some interesting cocktails. We would definitely return.

    Server had thorough knowledge of the menu including ingredients and cooking process. Made recommendations of dishes to order and share. Had Lamb Ragu Hummus, Israeli Salad and Brisket sandwich, all were delicious. Pita bread freshly baked on site.
