Our Story
A Palestinian family-owned restaurant, and a dining room built for gathering.
أهلاً وسهلاً
A taste of home in Inman Square
Jafra is a Palestinian family-owned restaurant — fresh mezze, fire-grilled mains, and house drinks brought together in a warm, welcoming dining room.
From hand-rolled falafel and creamy hummus to warm pita and espresso and matcha from the bar, every plate is made to be shared. Whether you are catching up with friends or unwinding after a long day, we have saved you a seat.
Our kitchen cooks Palestinian and Levantine food — the coffee poured slowly, the mezze that crowds a table, the bread torn and passed around. We're proud to bring that hospitality to Inman Square and save you a seat at it.
