Our Story
At Shmoné, Executive Chef Eyal Shani offers a fresh concept to New York City. This intimate restaurant takes a highly seasonal, thoroughly market-driven approach to products and ingredients, with dishes evolving and appearing as their ingredients ripen and age. One evening's dishes may center around just-to-market spring vegetables, while menus mere days later might be built around an unexpectedly robust haul from local seas. Shmoné offers a tabula rasa for our chefs to follow their hearts and indulge their inspirations. This is the impetus behind Shmoné, an intimate, ever-evolving culinary experience powered by the dynamism that Eyal Shani has become known for. Shmoné's dishes reflect a blend of influences from his Jerusalem upbringing and culinary journey. In 2023, Shmoné earned a Michelin star and retained the star in 2024.
Eyal Shani
Founder & Head Chef, Good People Group
Chef Eyal Shani was born in Jerusalem in 1959. His culinary passion was first instilled in him by his grandfather, an agronomist and a dedicated vegan, who exposed him to local markets, fields, and vineyards from a young age.
In 1989 he opened his first restaurant "Oceanus" in his hometown of Jerusalem. There, he developed a unique culinary language based on regional Mediterranean products: olive oil, fish, tahini, fresh seasonal vegetables, and of course, the tomato.
Since opening his fine dining restaurant, HaSalon, in Tel Aviv, Shani is now the inspiration and the leading chef of around 40 highly successful restaurants worldwide. Joined by his partner, Shahar Segal, the duo oversees Miznon, HaSalon, Malka, Port Said, North Abraxas, and more in Tel Aviv. Shani’s restaurants are currently located around the world in cities such as New York, Miami, London, Paris, Dubai, Melbourne, Singapore, and are ever growing.
