Flavors From Afar started with the idea that making and sharing food is a universal gesture that transcends cultural boundaries and speaks a language of love that is understood by all. But Flavors From Afar is more than just a restaurant; it’s a testament to the power of community, compassion, and the desire to make a positive impact. Flavors is a for-profit social enterprise of the Tiyya Foundation. We are a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing support and resources to refugees, asylum seekers, immigrants, and displaced families.

Our restaurant aims to honor and preserve the traditional cuisines of our culinary program participants, while also inviting you, the guest, to partake in this cultural exchange. Our talented team of immigrant, refugee, and asylum seeker chefs have shared their family recipes that have been passed down through generations, adapted, and shared with love.

We will open soon in East Hollywood and hope you enjoy the food and share these diverse dishes with the people you love. To learn more about Flavors From Afar, visit our website, follow us on Instagram and discover our reviews on Yelp.
