"Eilat's best-value kosher grill — entrecôte, skewers and a dozen unlimited salatim from 45₪. Book it for a team dinner."
About Achla Platinum Grill
A dozen mezze salads land on the table the moment you sit down, unlimited, for 45 shekels. That spread — the salatim — is the opening act at Achla Platinum Grill, a kosher charcoal grill on Kamen Street in central Eilat, opposite the Magic Palace hotel and a short hop from the airport. It is not a fine-dining room and does not pretend to be; it is the place locals point you to when you want a lot of well-grilled meat for very little money. On Tripadvisor it sits at #19 of 169 Eilat restaurants, rated 4.4. See our Eilat dining guide for more.
The Kitchen
The kitchen is a charcoal grill, and the format is Israeli-steakhouse simple. You start with the unlimited salatim — hummus, slaws, pickles, grilled aubergine and a dozen more, refilled as you go — then move to the meat: entrecôte cooked to order, mixed-grill skewers (shipudim) of liver, chicken and lamb at roughly 18 to 25 shekels each, and grilled fish for the table that wants it. Everything is certified kosher under the Eilat Rabbinate. The value is the headline; reviewers routinely call it the best deal in the city.

The Room
The room is plain and busy, built for turnover rather than lingering: hard surfaces, bright light, a steady hum of families and groups, and service that moves fast. There is no dress code and no pretence. Tables are close, the mood is loud and cheerful, and the location opposite the Magic Palace hotel makes it an easy walk for anyone staying in the resort strip. Come hungry and come for the food, not the setting.
Best for a Team Dinner
Book Achla for a team dinner because it solves the group problem cheaply and well: unlimited salatim keep everyone grazing while the grill works, the skewers and entrecôte are priced so a big table eats well without a runaway bill, and the fast, no-fuss service suits a crowd that wants to talk. The room absorbs noise easily, so no one feels watched. Order salatim for the middle and skewers by the round. See more team-dinner restaurants.
Not for
Not for a hushed fine-dining night or vegetarians chasing a centrepiece — this is a busy, no-frills charcoal grill where meat and value lead.
