Kanaan is an Israeli–Palestinian restaurant founded by Oz Ben David, an Israeli entrepreneur and creative strategist, and Jalil Dabit, a Palestinian Arab from the legendary Samir family – known for running the iconic “Hummus Samir” in Ramla.
At Kanaan, food is more than just a meal – it’s a cultural conversation. We offer a vibrant menu inspired by the rich culinary traditions of Israel and Palestine, reimagined for Berlin:
fresh seasonal dishes, signature hummus with a variety of toppings, handmade falafel, bold Levantine flavors and unique vegan & vegetarian creations.
The fusion of Middle Eastern warmth with European edge, tradition with innovation, makes Kanaan a space like no other in the city.
Whether you're here for a plate of hummus and fresh-baked pita, a popup dinner, or a spontaneous conversation over Arabic coffee with cardamom – you're part of something bigger.
We are proud to employ people from diverse backgrounds, including refugees and newcomers, and to serve as a safe space for all.
Racism, antisemitism, homophobia, and transphobia have no place here.
