Not sure why Jaffa isn’t more highly rated. Unlike most Mediterranean places, Jaffa is kosher, which maybe while its psychological, feels like it makes a difference in the taste The authenticity, simplicity, and taste are spot on. Blends Mediterranean flavors with a modern touch. Nestled on the second floor of the Mia Market Food feels traditional. The sabich is a perfect medley of fried eggplant, creamy tahini, and pickled veggies; his the sweet spot for hearty and fresh The hummus is RIDICulously tasty No over-the-top frills—just honest, well-executed dishes that let the ingredients shine. Laid back vibes

I’ve experienced the spice kings food at an event in Fort Myers Fl and looked forward to going to his Miami restaurant. You can taste the love in every bite of his food. The deconstructed baba ghanoush is out of this world. Everything that we had was exceptionally good. He came and checked on our table of 49 people to make sure we were all OK and was there anything we needed. If you’re ever in the Miami design district you have to check him out.

Jaffa has great middle eastern food (Israeli). It is conveniently located inside Mia Market. They have a variety of alternative beverages to pair your food with. Great for a quick, simple bite if you are around the area and don’t have much time or a huge budget.

Yummy and high quality Middle Eastern food with vegan options. Ordered a falafel platter and a roasted cauliflower. Both were very tasty and authentic.

Best joint at the food court in the design mall. Specials that are NOT on the menu far better than regular dishes. Excellent quality and great amount of food. Highy recommend.
