Delicious Falafel! by Kate B on 8/26/2010 via Insider Pages
I love the falafel at Cafe Jaffa. Sometime I get the sandwich and sometimes the platter, but it is always perfectly crispy on the outside and moist on the inside. \r \r The service can be a bit slow, and the servers are not always as…

Israel Restaurant by Jenny R on 4/27/2010 via Insider Pages
I stumbled upon this place as I was walking around Newbury St and happened to see Israeli newspapers being advertised. The food was average. It is really difficult to find quality Israeli food outside of Israel.

Such good shawarma! by JustinCanCook on 1/5/2010 via Citysearch
Caffe Jaffa somehow exists in the Back Bay on Gloucester St between Boylston and Newbury. Despite being surrounded by a wasteland of overpriced Newbury Street eateries and unappealing Boylston pubs, there stands Cafe Jaffa serving up…

The best!!!! by CSMobileUser on 1/4/2010 via Citysearch
Great place. I went once and it was ok. When I went the second time I wasn't disappointed. The shwarma is cut right in front of your eyes. IT WAS GREAT. I hope they start making sabich wrapped in pita made fresh in the resturant. GO THERE…

I came here on a date once, expecting some authentic falaffel. Instead what I got was some falaffel wraped in pita, with a bunch of non-middle eastern salad....including artichoke...not only was I disgusted, but I had to pretend it tasted…

My usual haunt by jfeist on 5/10/2007 via Citysearch
I work nearby, and this is the place I go to for lunch most often. I get takeout more often than I sit down. The shwarma salad is something I never get tired of. The food is always good, and the vibe is low key and pleasant. Nice people…

A solid spot! by theduke37 on 2/25/2005 via Citysearch
I had a good, inexpensive well-spiced steak here. I also thought the accompanying bread was also very nice. Overall, a pretty good value, although the service could stand to be a bit more polite and attentive. While my food arrived…
