Our Philosophy
Through generations in our family we have been taught the true meaning of tradition, the joys of sharing food and the love of serving others.
Our recipes are created with the freshest ingredients and the most delicate spices, without the use of any preservatives or additives. Our passion has always been serving you an unforgettable meal at a reasonable and truly affordable price!
Meet Ygal and Debi
Originally from Israel, Ygal moved to Los Angeles with his parents and brother where they opened a small, authentic Mediterranean restaurant, similar to those serving street foods in Israel. The recipes used in today’s Parsley kitchens originated from those memorable times in the City of Angels.
It was at that restaurant that Ygal met Debi, originally from London, and the rest is history!
The first Parsley Modern Mediterranean restaurant was established in 2011, with the second opening in 2015. The restaurant now has four locations in the valley.
Haviv and Dalia
Haviv and Dalia moved to Israel with 2 year old son Ygal in 1951 shortly after Ygal’s brother Avner was born and a few years later their sister Dorit.
Haviv and Dalia taught us the meaning of family, tradition, the joy of food and a deep love of serving others. They instilled in us the importance of ‘paying-it-forward’ and the need to always help those less fortunate in our community, wherever we live.
Sadly, Haviv passed away at the end of April, 2015 at the age of 92, leaving us with his profound wisdom, treasured recipes and beautiful memories.
