Neighbourhood gem

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 had a great experience at Tavi. The Lebanese style food was amazing, and the homemade pita from the wood fired oven was exceptional.

Upscale dining in the heart of old Covington. You know the dinner will be memorable when the first puffy flatbread arrives from the wood fired hearth…followed by silky hummus . Great service. Israeli inspired menu, fresh and bright tastes. Excellent cocktails. Recommend the Road to Kafar cocktail for a meal starter. You can’t go wrong with Tavi.

This restaurant is amazing I was in town for a family gathering and my cousin lives in the neighborhood and took us to dinner on Friday night we had cocktails and the best hummus any of us have had. We dined on three (cauliflower, chicken and mushrooms). We enjoyed it so much we came back two nights later. Mark and Stephanie took excellent care of us. They were very nice and accommodating.
