The hotel's dining heritage reflects decades of evolution. Early operations featured Italian chefs and European-influenced haute cuisine. After the Dan Hotels acquisition in 1958, kitchens began observing kashrut regulations while maintaining French-influenced haute cuisine traditions.
By the 1960s, the kitchen incorporated traditional Ashkenazi dishes for holiday observances. Historical menus from the 1980s included kugel, kreplach in consomme broth, and strudel, alongside Danish pastry and smoked fish breakfasts that became characteristic of the typical Israeli breakfast service.
