Yafa Cafe - Winnipeg

Fantastic spot in St.James serving Palestinian and middle eastern cuisine! The salads are so hearty and flavourful. Generous portions and very wallet friendly. Everything we ordered was fresh, hot, and delicious! The shakshouka eggs with the warm bread and warm meaty manakeesh (must try! You can get several small dishes and make a meal out of it!The art and decor inside of the restaurant sets this place apart— so many colours and traditional pieces and trinkets. Atmosphere is great as well. You can tell the owners have put a lot of time and consideration into making this space representative of their home country.Vegetarian options: Many vegetarian options

Absolutely delicious and full-feeling!! We’ve ordered 1. mhammara (spicy paste, came with some pastry , 2. zaatar onion tomato (non-spicy “pizza” , 3. falafels, and I forgot if it was 4. Kabab/Shawarma (we ordered beef version, it was spicy and 5. americano/Arabic coffee Dallas (we ordered a large version, so that we can share; it came in a set with some pastry and candy . Super happy that we chose to explore this store, great taste, great experience, and great service:

The food and ambiance is amazing. A little bit slow in service but the food and the place compensates for it. I would recommend this place. By far my favourite middle eastern/Mediterranean restaurant in WinnipegFood: 5/5

I loved this place, the food is other level, the service and atmosphere was nice and friendly. I will definitely come back to try other dishes.Food: 5/5

Great deal to get all day Arabic breakfast by Doordash delivery just for only 20 dollars in first order!The sage tea is so fragrant and refreshing. Helps me to re-energize and rejuvenate. The falafels are so divine. The rest of the dishes are damn excellent.I think this cafe will be more of a hit if they have all day Mediterranean buffet.
