They are open on Shabbos in Israel and are not kosher.

How about the kosher MickeyD's in Tel Aviv and Jerusalem?  Is it kosher to eat at those?  I know cheeseburgers are out, unless the cheese is tofu "cheese".

The Kosher McDonald's in I Israel are closed on shabbos & do not serve cheeseburgers,furthermore both the Tel Aviv & Jerusalem rabbinate insisted that the signs on the kosher branches be blue as opposed to the normal red to distinguish the kosher ones from the non-kosher ones.
Kosher McDonald's outside of Jerusalem & Tel Aviv in for instance Mevasert Tzion & Beit Shean  have the regular red signs but same rules ie no cheseburgers & closed on shabbos & kosher displayed prominantly on the sign in Hebrew & English.
I do not know about the one in Argentina you would have to ask a frum Jew from there.

Kosher or not, I think it's a stupid affirmative action restaurant. Why go there when you can go to Burger Ranch and hopefully soon again Burger King?
