Arabic Food &
Middle Eastern Cuisine

Yafa Hummus isn't a chain trying to recreate Middle Eastern food from a manual. This is family food. The kind of food we grew up eating, the kind our parents made, the kind you smell before you even walk through the door.

Our spices come from overseas — from Jordan, from Turkey, from the Mediterranean region. You can't get these flavors from a grocery store spice rack. It's the cumin, the sumac, the za'atar, the blends that have been in our family for decades. That's what makes the difference between food that tastes "Mediterranean" and food that tastes like home.

Our hummus follows our grandpa's recipe from 1951. We soak the garbanzo beans, cook them, cool them, and blend them ourselves. Every batch. Every day. It's smooth, it's creamy, and it tastes exactly the way hummus is supposed to taste.

Our garlic sauce — our toom — is authentic. It's smooth and full of flavor. It's what toom is supposed to be, not the watered-down stuff you find at most places.

All of our chicken, steak, and gyro are 100% halal verified. This isn't something we added later or offer as an option — it's how we've always operated. If you're looking for halal Arabic food in the Central Valley or East Bay, this is the spot.

When someone comes to Yafa Hummus, we want them to feel like they're eating at someone's home. The food is fresh, the portions are generous, and the flavors are real. Whether you grew up eating this food or you're trying it for the first time, you'll taste the difference that comes from doing things the right way.

We're proud of what we serve and how we serve it. This is food with purpose — clean, healthy, made from scratch, and full of love.
