Our Story
A family tradition, a grandfather's recipes, and a dream to share authentic Mediterranean food with California.
Grandfather Afeef Awad — the heart behind every recipe.
From Our Family
to Yours.
Two brothers and a cousin opened Yafa Hummus in September 2017, inspired by the cherished recipes of our grandfather, Afeef Awad. His passion for bold, honest food and warm hospitality became the foundation of everything we do.
We believe real food should be exactly that — real. Every morning, our kitchen starts fresh. No reheating, no preservatives, no cutting corners. Just whole ingredients turned into dishes you'll crave again tomorrow.
"Authentic flavors. Whole ingredients. Every single day."
What started as a single location in Tracy, CA has grown into three restaurants across the Bay Area and Central Valley — Tracy, Dublin, and Lodi. Each one carries the same commitment: Mediterranean food made with the care of a family kitchen.
Whether you're grabbing a quick bowl between meetings or sitting down for dinner with the family, you're tasting a legacy built on quality and love. We're honored to be your lunch spot, your dinner spot, and your go-to for gatherings big and small.
