Really delicious food! And good portion sizes. The cauliflower dish and chocolate dessert was a stand out. Individuals serving us were so attentive and friendly. We left really happy.

We had an absolutely wonderful dining experience at Shaffa. Every dish we tried was full of flavour and beautifully prepared. We ordered the Beetroot Lentil Kibbeh Niyah, Hummus, Focaccia, Octopus Al Haโ€™Esh, the Cauliflower dish, and the Chicken Shawarma Skewer..and not a single plate disappointed. The focaccia and hummus were standouts for us; the hummus was silky and rich, perfect with the warm, crispy bread. The cauliflower dish was incredibly flavorful everything on the plate came together beautifully, so balanced and thoughtfully composed. The chicken shawarma skewer was divine, melt-in-the-mouth tender and wonderfully seasoned. My husband especially loved the Octopus Al Haโ€™Esh; it was perfectly tender, and the crispy potatoes added a delightful crunch that elevated the dish even further. A special mention to Tatjana, our server, who was super nice and welcomed us with a warm smile.. her kindness added so much to the experience Overall, the meal felt vibrant, and crafted with real care. Shaffa is definitely a spot weโ€™ll be returning to.. highly recommended!

We wandered into Shaffa when the wine bar across the street was too full. It was a a very lucky choice! This middle eastern restaurant is bursting with charm and atmosphere. We were treated like friends from the time we walked in. Veronica, the manager, helped us with selections and made us feel at home. France, our server, was attentive and charming. And the food was amazing! The prawn entree was especially delicious. It was fun to watch the chefs working the open kitchen. Highly recommended this place! The photo attached is of the bar area โ€” there is a dining room as well. Itโ€™s lovely and airy, and completely sheltered from the elements. We loved it!

The Middle Eastern cuisine here is very authentic. The environment is so beautiful. The cave-style bar is very stylish. I really like the hummus in this restaurant. It's very delicious. The service attitude is also very good. It's a very nice dining experience.

The venue is beautiful and the service was great - both friendly and attentive. The set menu was very good. The bread and dips to start were great, the kingfish was a skip - the fish was completely lost to the mound of herbs and spices paste over the top of it. Fried okra was good but the dipping sauce was fantastic a sweet and spicy yoghurt YUM. The steak was a medium-well rather than a medium-rare as ordered but it was very tender and tasty. Potatoโ€™s were also nice and crispy. Would definitely recommend.
