Jaffa International Market

Everything I’ve had here has been wonderful. From the kabobs to the shawarma, definitely will come back! Great addition to my neighborhood

The sandwiches are enormous, delicious, and a fantastic deal. I love the gyros, and the hand-​made falafel, My partner and I are planning to work our way through the menu.
And the service, so friendly! I choose to eat in whenever I can because the people who work here are super nice. Even when we’re not conversing, it just makes you feel good to listen to them interact with the other regular customers.
So glad to have found this wonderful place in my own neighborhood.

Great place to stop in for some Lebanese food. Most people I know could split just about anything on the menu. But you aren’t going to want to.

The Oregonian recently had a section of cheap eats, and international market was featured. What a great meal made by such a sweet gentlemen. Didn’t get his name, but he was slender and very nice and welcoming. We had the chicken skewers, chicken shwarma plate with spicy hummus, pita and taziki sauce. I’m a big eater, but I couldn’t finish half my plate. Yay for leftovers! A great find. Will definitely come back again.

Review for the Gyro.
This place is nice. Stopped in impulsively while on a beer run to the Plaid Pantry.
I got the Jumbo Gyro because i was hungry. Turned out to be a huge mistake. I’ve held babies lighter than this jumbo gyro. For 6.99 you get red leaf lettuce, pickled peppers, cucumbers, onions, gyro meat, and tzatziki sauce on a somewhat stale pita.
It was a crazy amount of food, great value, but altogether too salty and the pita was charred on the outside which gave it that acrid bitter taste in every bite. Could not distinguish between the paper wrapper and pita at times.
Sober, not so good, but I can see how it would be amazing in a less-​sober state.
The man working was extremely nice and they have a nice selection of middle eastern/​indian groceries.
Will probably be back.

This place is a small store with a deli in the back. All food is cook to order and fresh. We had two «small» gyros and they were probably a pound a piece. For 5.99 that’s a great deal. The meat was cut off the spit as I ordered it and it was delicious. Gonna try their kabobs next time.

We live right down the road from here and are hopelessly hooked on the delicious gyros! The meat is juicy and there is just the right amount of sauce. My fiancée loves the rice that comes as a side; I prefer the baba ganouj but they’re both tasty! And the prices are very appropriate.
Aside from the food, the market itself is amazing, or at least looks that way to my eyes. Tons of imported herbs, spices, oils and other treats, as well as a smattering of pretty hookahs on display up front by the register. I love wandering around fantasizing about what I could do with it all (if I knew how) while I wait for my order.
The man that always helps me, Abraham, is totally gracious, helpful, and understands my need for tasty baklava (of which they stock two varieties). He is always smiling and makes the whole experience even better.
Eat here!

Really good deals throughout the store and great prices on their food menu. Staff is very friendly and all of our food was fresh and yummy! I really liked the gyro I had– we’ll be back!

My husband and I live in the area and were so happy to see something new and different pop up in this little shopping center. The market itself is fantastic with amazing imported olive oils, fresh pita and all sorts of other imported goods to try. The market is great but there fresh kebabs, gyros, falafel and really anything else they make right there on site for you is beyond delicious. As much as I praise both the market and deli portion of the shop one of the greatest parts is the family that works there always friendly ready to recommend and sample things you really can’t go wrong here!

A small market with international food and an excellent take out deli. The Gyro sandwich is gigantic and very tasty. The chicken kabob plate is excellent. Very low price for the quantity and more importantly the quality of the food. The owner is super friendly and very proud of his food.
A gem of a place, so glad a friend told us about it.

This new little store popped up in our Neighborhood next to Plaid Pantry in the strip mall. The location is tough to get in and out of since you are competing with Plaid Pantry for ingress.
The store is well laid out, has freshly made Greek food, they have lots of different Pita and Naan breads, Hummus, Gyros, Samosas, etc and they are all very good.
They have a good variety of Middle Eastern ingredients, in fact I bought Tahini Paste and Garlic Naan there a month ago, how convenient is that.
The reason for 4 stars and not five, they do not carry Lavosh (which we prefer to both Pita and Naan bread) and they put pickles on their Gyro which is just not right.
I am guessing the family that owns the place speaks either Arabic or Farsi .
Customer Service wise they are top notch, always willing to help and encourage you to sample their fresh foods, tell you exactly what is in it and how they are made. I can tell you that their wares are made fresh every morning on premises.
Great little place, I highly encourage you to try them!

This is a great lil gem nestled in the cooper mtn n’hood with a great variety of groceries from imported olives, exotic spices, specialty teas, and even Turkish coffee! They also have excellent gyros, hummus, and a lamb shank plate that is amazing. The prices are great, and They also have ready the hard to find, but sought out Rossdown Farms Chicken which is organic and way cheaper than New Seasons. I recommend the lamb shank plate (weekends only), chicken samosas, & gyro combo. Customer service is excellent & friendly.
UPDATE: New owners, new management, New Name

I was stuck in jury duty for 7 hours without getting called — exhausting. On the way home, I was passing by Hart Rd and noticed the big poster from the street and decided to stop in. I’m gluten free and decided to get the lamb gyro platter (lamb gyro, sauteed onions, bell peppers, salad and garlic sauce) over rice instead of the soft fluffy awesome bread that I can no longer enjoy due to the gluten sensitivity. It was AWESOME!!! Price was right too at 6.99. It was enough for 2, I could barely finish it even on a empty stomach.
The grocery store had other things as well. Everything looked fresh and they had marinated meat that you can take home and cook yourself or have them make it fresh while you wait. But, after a long and very sloooooow day at the Hillsboro courthouse, the cooking at home in 34 degree weather thing was not going to happen.
Took the food home, turned on the TV and enjoyed a great dinner — check out the pic I posted.
Bottom line: can’t go wrong in this place. Everything looked good on the menu and prices were good, too. They do have 3 tables that you can eat in, if take out is not an option. I will be definitely going back to these guys for my gyro fix.

Best gyros in suburban Beaverton. Very courteous, friendly staff. And the best part, three minutes from our house. We will become regulars.

You know how they say the first 10 seconds of meeting someone is enough for a first impression? Well that’s pretty much all you will need here. The customer service is top notch!
It’s difficult to describe this place, but essentially, it’s a very local grocery store + take out and sit in restaurant.
The Grocery: Pretty much 95% of the items are foreign. I imagine if I went to these guys’ home country or somewhere in the middle east, I would buy these types of snacks, cheeses, milk, pita bread, spices (whole cumin seeds), bulk EVOO, sodas, candy, etcetc. They don’t have produce though, other than milk, cheese, yogurt. If you love a different flavor, i’m sure you can pick anything here and it’ll be unique and interesting!
They sell LOCAL meat as well from a farm on cornell. You know that road right? So local!
They sell chicken, lamb, goat, beef. You should call ahead to place an order because apparently as soon as he gets them, people are already on the list to buy some.
Didn’t take a picture of the prices, but in general most were at or even below standard price. Some exceptional prices: they have tenderloin for $ 9.99 a pound and ribeye for $ 5.49(?)/lb. Which are both pretty nice deals.
The restaurant: Fairly simple, standard middle eastern type food.
I had the jumbo gyro (6.49), chicken shwarma (5.49), and beef roll (2.99).
All were very hefty. The pita bread they use is a store bought pita. They dip it in some lamb fat, grill it on the gyro rotating heater, which makes it nice, warm, tasty.
When flat, the pita for both these sandwiches are 12 inches in diameter… a decent amount of meat and veggies go into each of these.
Their taziki sauce is off the chain. Chunks of veggies, great tart, creaminess… a perfect contrast to the savory meat.
The chicken was well seasoned, powerfully flavored.
The lamb for the gyro was real good… not too salty, not underseasoned, no gamey after taste.
I saved about a third of my gyro it for my next meal… and i’m known to eat a lot!
The beef roll had a fairly small amount of beef, but it was filled with some potatoes, and peas/​veggie mix with a very indian curry type flavor. Not bad at all!
Is it Michelin star quality. No, but is it food that i’d imagine eating if I was invited over to the owner’s house? Yes. I was more than pleased with my meal.
I’ll definitely be back. The local vibe, the unique interesting items, the practicality of some of the items like imported olive oil, or certain hard to find spices, the smiles on the worker’s faces, the use of local meats, the value of the food for the price all in all makes this place worth it.
«Hope you enjoy. Come back again, i’ll take care of you» ~ Ibrahim, as we paid for our food. Just screams local! in the middle of Aloha!
All you suburbanites… head here, help a local family out. Eat some good food. Try something new.
