Flavors From Afar | Our Social Enterprise

Flavors From Afar is Tiyya Foundation’s Pan-African Bistro and Wine Bar, located in the heart of East Hollywood. Our restaurant brings together the rich culinary traditions of Africa and its diaspora, offering a warm, intimate setting for date nights, gatherings with friends, family celebrations, and memorable dining experiences.

As a social enterprise, Flavors From Afar is also an extension of Tiyya’s workforce development and economic advancement programs. We create opportunities for refugees, immigrants, and individuals from underserved communities to gain hands-on hospitality experience, develop professional skills, and pursue meaningful careers. Through partnerships with refugee, immigrant, and Indigenous chefs, we also celebrate cultural heritage and create opportunities for culinary professionals to share their traditions and earn income.

Guests can enjoy a thoughtfully curated Pan-African menu, a distinctive selection of African wines, and a welcoming atmosphere where food brings people together.

In addition to everyday dining, we offer full-service catering, private celebrations, corporate gatherings, and immersive culinary experiences.

Every visit supports more than a restaurant. It helps us create economic opportunities, preserve cultural traditions, and build a community where everyone belongs.
