Fantastic
Tel Aviv
At a glance
Fantastic is an evening dining and drinks venue inside the Port and Blue hotel at 3 Tsidon Street in Tel Aviv. Its setting draws on the world of written stories, bringing together references to medieval classics, modern literature and poetry in a deliberately surreal environment.
The design combines theatrical, Shakespearean, dramatic and comic touches with imagery associated with fairy tales and traditional fantasy. The venue is presented as the residence of Mr Fantastic, an unusual host figure with an aesthetic that brings together gothic character and cult theatricality. Rather than relying on a single uniform dining room, Fantastic is arranged across several spaces, each intended to create a different mood.
Food and drinks form the centre of the evening experience, with a varied menu suited to dinner, drinks or a combination of both. The atmosphere is more theatrical than conventional, making the venue a fit for occasions where setting and visual character matter as much as the meal. The smart-elegant dress code also places Fantastic firmly in the category of polished evening outings rather than casual daytime dining.
The different areas can also be used for private events. The venue offers intimate corners in a range of sizes for evening gatherings, meals and celebrations, allowing an event to take place within the same literary and theatrical setting. The layout can suit smaller occasions as well as group bookings, although exact arrangements depend on the event.
Fantastic operates from the evening into the late night, with food, drinks and event options available in the same imaginative setting. Its location at Port and Blue places it on Tsidon Street, while its interior concept gives the venue a strong sense of occasion without depending on a particular type of cuisine. It suits diners looking for an atmospheric restaurant and bar, groups planning an evening event, and anyone drawn to fantasy-inspired design, literary references and a more performative approach to hospitality.
