“A Kebab Lover’s Dream!

The kebabs are not only incredibly flavorful, but they are also some of the softest and juiciest I’ve ever had—perfectly marinated and grilled to tender perfection.

Their combo kebab platters are a must-try, especially if you’re indecisive like me. You get a generous portion of multiple kebab types—barg, koobideh, chicken…each one seasoned uniquely and bursting with taste.

From the moment you take your first bite, you’ll taste the care and tradition in every skewer. Whether you’re new to Persian cuisine or a longtime fan, this place will leave you beyond satisfied. Highly recommended!“

“I think I saw an ad for Yafa Cafe on Facebook. We are always searching for good Mediterranean food, it's hard to find in Kansas City. Seeing Kibbeh on the menu automatically moved them to the top on the list. We really enjoyed our meals and appetizers! The kibbeh was good, the spanakopia was good. All of our meals were good. I really enjoyed the creamy chicken plate. The chicken shawarma was good. Everyone liked the kabobs (chicken and beef). We will definitely be back! The owner and employees were very nice and helpful. Highly recommend!“

“Best hidden gem in Kansas City, they have amazing Gyros 100%. The team there is so friendly. Love the food, go check it out you wont be disappointed🌺❤️“

“best food in area hands down 10/10“

“Love this place. The right balance of authentic and approachable. Ms Maisoon has always been there, each of the 10+ times I've been there. She is warm and accommodating. I get the Gyro every time, but there's plenty more. The cheesecake is amazing too!“

“Huge portions. Delicious food. Incredibly nice folks. Super happy to have them in the neighborhood!“

“In town for the week and looking for something with heart, this place popped up as a local favorite and now I understand why. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with genuine kindness and warm energy that you could feel in the room.

It was a little busy, which is always a good sign, but we scored a sidewalk table and that is totally my vibe. The Baba falafel on pita was absolutely soul satisfying. Every bite was fresh, flavorful, and made with love.

Inside, the decor is beyond charming. Whoever designed the space clearly knows how to mix color and texture with personality. Honestly, I want them to come decorate my house next.

Grateful for this gem. It made our visit that much sweeter.“

“Stumbled across this food truck on 16th n Walnut. I’ve never really had food from a truck before but kiddo was hungry and I thought why not. I AM SO GLAD WE STOPPED!! Never did I think I could get a gyro better than the place we visit every time I go to Florida. It’s not cheap either down there. Managed to drive 15 mins home. I was stunned that our food was still HOT!! Not warm, not kind of warm. Even the fries were HOT! I can go get some and be home in 5 minutes and the fries are always cold. Not this time. They were extra but I would gladly pay for them again! There was enough to share them with 3 ppl. I’m the pic you can see I shared them with my son. To my surprise when I lifted my gyro out, there was even more underneath!! Also, these fries were not those skinny cheap looking ones. They weren’t crinkle nor steak but a cross between those two. And oh they were so good!! Making me want to order just fries now. My gyro was nice and tender. I ordered the beef and lamb. I did order extra tzatziki sauce. It was only a $1.00 because I assumed there would be enough. There’s never enough. Let’s just say I wasted a dollar lol. There was so much sauce, it made it messy to eat but NOT in a bad way. They didn’t try to fill it will vegetables to make it look bigger. It was the right amount of meat and veggies. I don’t know if I’m allowed to put the price. Let’s just say Ive bought a crappy hamburger for more than I paid for it. I could only eat half of it and was happy to eat the rest for lunch. They had other items on the menu if gyro or Greek isn’t your fancy. I got a cheeseburger for my child, ketchup only. They had all the fix’in if you wanted it. Gotta picky eater. I asked him how his sandwich was and he said one of the best he’s had. It wasn’t greasy which was good. And the price I paid for that!?!!! Again, you’d pay more at that crappy Mc place and get a smaller burger. I paid around $26 for both of us to eat. Now a days, that’s the price you pay for one to eat. I don’t know how it stayed hot on the drive home. They did wrap the gyro in foil and laid it on top of the fries. Maybe that’s how. They also used a styrofoam container. Not those clear plastic lid with black bottom ones. The burger was in a nice thick cardboard container too. So I think that’s how everything stayed like it just got off the cook top. I guess you can either drive around dow town to find them or go to their web site to see where they will be. I hope they don’t go further south because I definitely will eat at that truck again!!! (I only mentioned they had other food items if you don’t like greek food. I can not remember what else they had. I think chicken, wraps or course burgers. I wanted to say that I gave my picky eater a good size piece of lamb. I asked “well?” He said it was really good!! ). I don’t think you’d be disappointed in the food nor prices).“

“I love stopping by when I'm on this side of town. The food is so delicious! All the flavors are bursting out of each dish and all go together so well. Not to mention the rice is always cooked to perfection and the prices aren't bad either. The portion sizes make it easy to get full with just a little bit left over to savor for later.“

“Wonderful people, they make you feel so welcome. They made great recommendations and the food was delicious. Check them out. We will definitely be back.“

“I absolutely love Papu’s! The food is always made fresh to order & the quality & pricing can not be beat! The owner Khalid & his staff are amazing!“
