About Us

Her flavors. Your table. Unauma restaurant in Tel Aviv invites you to a genuine, warm, and flavor-packed Thai experience—just like home in Thailand. Unauma was born and raised in Thailand’s Isan region, an area renowned for its rich, spicy, colorful, and character-filled cuisine. Drawing on the memories, flavors, and hospitality of her upbringing, she brings authentic, generous, and soulful Thai food to the heart of Tel Aviv. Onauma’s journey began with a deep love for home-style Thai cooking. She arrived in Israel in 2015 and, together with her Israeli husband, Robi, began cooking and serving the flavors she grew up with. In 2020, that dream became a reality: a family-run Thai restaurant in the heart of Tel Aviv. The menu features appetizers, Thai soups, spicy salads, and wok-fried main courses. Alongside classics like Pad Thai, Pad See Ew, Pad Krapow, Khao Soi, and Tom Yum, you will also find unique dishes that are less common in Israel—dishes rooted in Onauma’s home and the flavors of her upbringing. Every dish is prepared with respect for Thai cuisine, featuring deep flavors, aromatic scents, high-quality ingredients, and generous portions. While the culinary style is rooted in Isan, the menu also incorporates flavors from Northern, Central, and Southern Thailand. The experience at Onauma goes beyond the food; it is defined by warm, personal hospitality. Every guest is invited to feel as though they are visiting Onauma’s home in Thailand—enjoying food prepared with heart.
