What HaSalon does

HaSalon is a Mediterranean fine dining restaurant concept founded and led by Israeli chef Eyal Shani, whose culinary language emphasizes olive oil, fish, tahini, fresh seasonal vegetables and tomato. The company operates four physical locations: the original in Tel Aviv, the New York City flagship at 735 10th Ave in Hell's Kitchen (opened April 2019), Miami Beach on Washington Avenue, and Las Vegas inside The Venetian Resort. Each restaurant runs a reservation-only, prix-fixe format with two nightly seatings, the first tranquil and the second transforming into a high-energy Tel Aviv-style party atmosphere.

HaSalon NYC operates Thursday through Saturday, 6pm to close, with bookings handled through Resy.com, parties of ten or more routed via direct email, and a structured private events program (Prix-Fixe Feasts, The Parlour, The Lounge, Full Buyouts) accommodating 10 to 200 guests and processed through the Perfect Venue platform and direct email inquiries. Las Vegas and Tel Aviv use SevenRooms and Ontopo respectively. Press contact is handled through an external PR firm, and gift certificates are sold through Toast.

The business is privately held by founder Eyal Shani and partner Shahar Segal, with no disclosed institutional investors; reported headcount is 11-50 employees, which most plausibly reflects the NYC unit rather than the full HaSalon branded footprint. HaSalon operates alongside sibling concepts Shmoné, Malka, Port Sa'id, North Abraxas and Miznon within the same ownership group's broader portfolio of approximately 40 restaurants across Vienna, Paris, Melbourne, Singapore, New York, Tel Aviv, Miami and Las Vegas. Revenue is not publicly disclosed.
