I was on the hunt for a gyro at 9:30 on a Friday night. I found this place and got excited because they advertised late hours. I ordered 2 gyros they didn't have an option to add fries on the website. Then I got there and the owner(?) says when you order a gyro wrap you get fries for $1.99. That explains the bread my gyro was made with. It was very thin, small and the bread was a wrap instead of a pita. I wasn't a fan. I will admit, the ambiance is nice. read more

2 stars is a compliment here. Turkish coffee was gross. The hummus was pure tahini. Tabbouleh was dry and missing lemon. The kibbeh and the pita bread were the only decent things we tasted. Our order was missing an item and after I complained, the manager ordered to give me a free meal later on (we were here on vacation so that was not an option. Also, a refund isn't fair when we waited so long) he said he would deliver the missing item within 45 mins. Granted, our Airbnb is 35 mins away, from the location. I gave him some buffer. But when I called him back, he claimed he was "doing us a courtesy by delivering the item. And he also dropped off the item to the wrong door". Normally I would be more accepting.. But don't give me attitude because your own team messed up. It's not as if it was a Saturday night. It's a Monday! Do not piss on my leg and tell me it's raining. How about you pay attention to your team and your own job. I lived in the Middle East for 24 years and this treatment is so offensive to the culture. The food does not measure up and neither does the behavior of the "manager" read more

This place is amazing and the staff is so sweet. They stayed open later than closing to allow us to sit, and when we offered to take it to go they insisted we dine in! Besides that the lemon mint drink is literally AMAZING. It tastes so authentic. We also got the sahlab and it was so good!! Highly recommend :) read more

I'll definitely be back to this restaurant! I ordered a falafel pita wrap and a Greek salad. The salad was large, fresh, and delicious - I especially loved the feta cheese and dressing. The falafel pita wrap was one of the best I've ever had. The pita was soft with the perfect texture, and the falafel was plentiful with a great consistency. Falafel is usually too hard, but not at Jaffa's. The service was fast & friendly. I'm really looking forward to returning! read more

I can't explain how good this restaurant is. If you're looking for authentic Middle Eastern cuisine this is the best spot in Georgia. Great service!!! read more

Terrible food, mid service. Good was not good and did not taste fresh. Service was slow for no reason. We were the only people there.

The food is absolutely delicious. We visited here under the former name/owners. The updates are lovely and the service was so welcoming. All good improvements. The mint lemonade was so refreshing. I got tabbouleh and chicken with hummus. My husband got the mixed grill with rice. Everything was juicy and fresh. read more

They don't follow any directions on to go orders. Order a falafel plate appetizer and they deliver a falafel pita sandwich. I think they just cook what they want to get rid of. They don't seem to care about something simple as reading. Won't ever order from these clowns again read more

Awesome new halal food spot in town offering all the delicious middle eastern essentials served with love and care. The owner of the restaurant Mona, is very welcoming and hardworking. She always makes sure you have a good experience when you're there. They make all their food from scratch and you can really tell the difference from any other middle eastern restaurant in the area. They also offer hookah for those who are interested. There's a separate patio and lounge for the hookah. This place is perfect for taking your family, kicking back with your friends or even date nights. Carpe Diem with your Taste Buds People read more

We went here for lunch today, I am so shocked this restaurant has so many good reviews. We ordered chicken kabab platter and lamb shank platter. After waiting for more than 20 minutes for the food, food was so bland and tasteless. Chicken was extremely dry, lamb shank didn't had any spices. We have tried Mediterranean/Turkish cuisine in different places, this restaurant was such a let down. I would not recommend or go back again. read more

Wish they wouldn't screw people over by giving them a half bowl of a full order soup. Instead of telling us they ran out they screwed us out of a takeout order. Leaving us with all half full soups instead of refunding us of the $80 they tried to hide it read more

Jaffa Restaurant Atl - Is this a full serving? This is what we were served for a few full bowls of soup. - Middle Eastern Near Me - Roswell, Georgia

I had a mango milk shake not very good. Weak flavor the ice cream used was poor quality. We were there for lunch only 4 tables occupied maybe a slow day. Some of the plates were very full with plenty to eat. read more

All I can say is the food is SO good such a hidden gem!! We got the platter for 2 and it came with so much food, great portions and the staff is super friendly! Definitely will be coming back. They also have a cute patio and the ambiance is great! read more

Delicious food! I had the Kofta Kabob combo platter (kabobs, salad, hummus, and pita). Large portions, great price. I don't think they have a soda fountain, just cans. In case that matters to you. Super friendly staff. They do have Wi-Fi, just ask for the password. Food is really good, highly recommend! read more

The food is good and they have cool decor but this place won't make it based on our experience today unless some things change. We were the only people in the restaurant at 11:45 on a Saturday morning. We had to walk up to the kitchen to get a water and tea refill (2 times). Also, there was a German shepherd who walked right thru the restaurant into the kitchen & I can't imagine that's to code... there was no excuse for the poor service given we were the only table. I hope they can change something and turn this around! read more

This food was phenomenal! I've never had such tender.chicken or soft bread. The lemon mint drink was out of this world!! Wish I lived closer! read more

Went back for a 2nd time today and I'm even more impressed. I had the Shish Tawook with salad instead of fries. The fresh grilled chicken wrap was wonderfully spiced but the real star was the toum and hot sauce that came with it. I've made toum a few times and it's nothing like theirs--it's light, fluffy, garlicky but not over the top. The hot sauce was herbaceous and fresh. This place rules and they even upped the decor and it's beautiful inside. Highly recommend. read more

Omg! The food was amazing and affordable! As someone who has lived in Dearborn, MI and familiar with the cuisine I was very impressed! The humus was divine. The atmosphere is very relaxed, clean with lots of open space. I was able to work on a Sunday afternoon and have a nutritious dinner! I will be back with the family! read more

Pulled up at 10:19 tonight with the open light on. The owner saw me as he was standing outside. He quickly ran inside turned off the light and locked the door even though they did not close until 11:00. Don't have to worry about me coming back again. read more

This place is a family style restaurant. The decor is kinda cute. However I didn't go there to be awed by the look of the place. The food was outstanding. When you go make sure to try the lemon-mint drink. You can decide how much sugar you want added to it. All foods and drinks are home made. The restaurant offered the usual array of Mediterranean cuisine but it prepared and cooked there. The pita was light and fluffy. The hummus is creamy and yummy. Just go, you won't regret! read more

It was real bad experience The shish kabab was super dry and hard to chew And the service is so disappointed specially for a new restaurant Not recommended read more

My wife and I had a wonderful meal at the new Jaffa Restaurant Saturday evening. It is a family owned business that took over the space previously occupied by Jerusalem Chef which had been around for years. While, Jerusalem Chef had been our favorite Mediterranean restaurant, the new owners have expanded the menu and the food is just as wonderful if not better. You will not be disappointed! The portions are generous unlike some places where I find myself searching for my food on oversized plates. For an appetizer we ordered the Baba Ganoush which was out of this world. It is served with 2 pitas and we were offered more (for no additional charge). I ordered the Shish Tawook dinner plate and my wife ordered the Chicken Tender dinner plate. You can check their menu out at https://jaffarestaurantatl.com/. You'll be pleased by the wide variety of options and great service. One caveat is that alcoholic drinks are not served because the restaurant is halal. However, if you must, downtown Alpharetta and Roswell offer countless options for before and/or after dinner drinks. read more

Discovered this place one night when I needed somewhere to eat late at night, and I uncovered a gem. Some of the best middle eastern food I've had in my life. the prices are pretty good and the portions are great. What made jaffa stand out was some of the menu items I haven't seen/had since I was in Egypt. The Salahb is amazing and something you just don't find here in the states. The customer service is also great. I've eaten here a few times, and today something tasted off different about a drink I ordered, and I didn't even ask for a replacement or mention, just asked for sugar, but the manager brought out another, let me keep the first one, and didn't charge me anything. The food, hospitality, and value are all top notch. Will be coming here more often. read more

EXTREMELY RUDE front desk lady! Placed my order for pick up. While my order was brought from the kitchen, i requested some sauces on the side and one of the guys went in and got those for me. The front desk lady saw this and literally snatched my togo bag and started shouting as if i stole something. What kind of behavior is this? Who treats customers like they are thieves! SERIOUSLY! NEVER GOING BACK AGAIN!!! ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE!!!! read more

Great people, great food. Love that they are a multigenerational, family owned business. Catered from them twice. Always a crowd pleaser!!
