Hidden Gem

This is one of those place that you might pass by and miss. We were in a mall, looking for somewhere to eat before the drive back home. After walking through the food court multiple times, we settled for Jaffa and we're so glad we did.

The set up is your average "Build a bowl" service with mediterranean options, which are always a safe bet for vegans. But I loved how they had a poster mounted on the walls that highlighted which menu items were compatible with common diets and allergies. Meaning I didn't have to ask the staff if they knew what was and wasn't vegan. This made placing my orders so much easier.

Then there is the food itself. Best Mediterranean food I've ever had. Everything was just bursting with so much flavor. This is definitely a must visit for anyone who happens to be in the area.

Traditional Falafel Pita

I would highly recommend this place. Great food and several labeled vegan options at a reasonable price. Traditional falafel pita was great. I might try their smoothies next time.

I have had better and worse.

This is mostly a McDonalds of Mediterranean food. Food ploped into bowls. Ingredients are fresh, but not worth the price.

Cons: Bland, Overcooked falafel

Fresh and vegan friendly

We got the veggie mazza bowls and they were delicious! We built our own, there are tons of veggie toppings to choose from as well as hummus and other dressings. The falafel was delicious and so was the rice! Definitely going to go back.

Pros: Lots of vegan options , Fresh , Great price

A good value

I went with the falafel bowl and was quite pleased; the hummus was a nice balance with the pickle and peppers, and while the grape leaves were a little small (tip: order an extra one) the rice was actually a nice “bed” for the rest. Unfortunately, they no longer carry a vegan baklava— which was what I went there for in the first place!
