Had a great supper with a friend at Jaffa in SLO. Helpful service to customize my order. Falafels were so good! Not greasy or oily, just right amount of sauce on falafel wrap. Highly recommend for good price and excellent food.

Nice little Lebanese restaurant near downtown but not downtown. Outside seating in nice weather, decent selection of beer, (need more choices) and good food at a reasonable price. I usually eat at their Arroyo Grande location but both are serving good food consistently.

The portions were good, the taste of the food was good, lots of meat. Only, the lamb didnt have a strong taste of what lamb tastes like. I have had it before at a middle eastern restaurants and the meat was more moist and had a more lamb taste to it. I still would come back if I am in town again. Worth the money to spend for a meal here.

I crave their garlic sauce! You can't go wrong with any selection at Jaffa. The salads are huge, topped with tons of meat. The gyros are packed full of goodness. They've even got a selection of beer and wine. The baklava is a perfect way to end your meal (or start it, if you can't wait). The staff is friendly and the service is pretty quick. There is a little lot in the back, so swing around there if there isn't any street parking out front.

Delicious food, and a great selection of drinks and sauces. Prices weren't bad either! If you're wanting some authentic Mediterranean food this is the place! It's not too far off the Highway either (101) so don't be afraid to stop by if you're passing by.

Their atmosphere is phenomenal! New, modern, and clean, I couldn’t appreciate it more. The unique almond ice cream is surprisingly good, and they serve juicy shawarma that’s unique in SLO. Damn good place to try something different! Mediterranean food done quite well

Good food, and fun spot! Only concern is the food always takes a while. Took around 25 minutes to get 2 combination plates with only 2 or 3 small orders ahead of ours. Ordering is done from a checklist which you drop off in a basket, this eliminates any need to speak with anyone at the counter so we're not fans of that aspect because it's not that complicated to welcome everyone into your restraunt and acknowledge they are here for your business too.

This place is one of the best Greek Cuisines we have had. I was so upset to finish my food, seriously. It was so delicious! Better yet, we checked in on Yelp and they gave us free ice cream, and since it was our first visit, they gave us free Baklava to go. Best experience. Must go!

I tried this place with a friend on a whim because we were craving Mediterranean and we did not regret it! I got the falafel plate and it was so good. I think it was the best falafel that I've had in SLO. The pita bread was hot and fresh. Everything paired well with the hummus. Really nice staff too. We left feeling very satisfied and full. We'll definitely be back :)

I love this restaurant. I have never been disappointed with the food. In fact, my friend and I decided to eat Jaffa in place of original a traditional turkey dinner. Jaffa staff are very friendly, accommodating, and efficient. The food is fresh and healthy.
