Mid at best. All of the tables were reserved but no one came in to sit. Had to ask for service , once the food was delivered we were never checked on , not asked if the food was ok, not asked if we needed anything. Didn't receive the bill.
Had to get up and find the server to ask for a beverage. No thanks.

I love coming here with my friends, it’s always such a welcoming experience and the food is so good and worth it. Their chai karak hits especially good on a cold day and I appreciate a good late night meal here <3

Today it was a true honor to spend time at Yafa Café, surrounded by the Arab community, especially our Palestinian brothers and sisters. The café itself is a beautiful, welcoming space with an incredible atmosphere. The food was outstanding, bursting with authentic flavors, and the hospitality made us feel genuinely at home.

Thank you, Yafa Café, for the wonderful experience and unforgettable moments we enjoyed today.

Went with some friends for dinner, and it was absolutely amazing!!! The owners were so kind, and our waitress was really sweet. The atmosphere was lively and fun, and food was so good! Just overall a great experience!

Food is garbage, got chicken shawarma and plater with boiled meat instead of marinated and grilled, so that is misrepresentation. They selling chicken wraps not shawarma's.
Never go back.

My partner and I visited Yafa Cafe over the weekend and while we both expected it to be good, we were still wonderfully surprised by just how good it is. The environment is so relaxing and welcoming and the food is by far the best Arabic food either of us had in a long time. So looking forward to visiting again!

P.s. I highly recommend the all day breakfast. So so good.

Takeout order. Somehow, our takeout order wasn’t added to the queue, so the order was quite late. Got home to find that we were missing dishes. Went back to the restaurant to get the missing dishes - not much was said about the inconvenience. The meat dish was not fully cooked so we didn’t eat it all. I hope this was just one bad meal because we usually love this place.
