About Yossef’s Laffa-Milia

Yossef’s Laffa-Milia brings authentic kosher Israeli food to Owings Mills, Maryland — rooted in family tradition and made from scratch every single day. Founded by Yossef and Hana Shavi, together with their children, this beloved family-run kitchen grew out of four years of operating a food truck that drew a loyal following across the Baltimore Jewish community.

Every dish reflects generations of Israeli home cooking, from the bold spices of the street to the comforting warmth of recipes passed down through the family. Yossef’s Laffa-Milia is proudly Star-K certified fleishig, and the team is deeply committed to making every guest — vegetarian, vegan, or gluten-free — feel genuinely welcome at the table.

The restaurant is located at 10210 S Dolfield Road in Owings Mills, near Wegmans in Foundry Row, and is open Sunday through Thursday. Whether you dine in, take out, or order delivery through DoorDash, every meal is prepared with intention, love, and a whole lot of flavor.

Really fun, warm vibes! Yossef offered extra tea and dessert for our anniversary ♥️ Food was delicious! They served fresh lemongrass mint tea in these awesome large round glass teacups that I loved drinking out of! All the staff were friendly and welcoming. Nobody rushed us to leave even though we stayed late to finish eating.

Everything tastes just like it does in Israel, especially the falafel. The pickled salads and all the little sides are absolutely amazing — everything is delicious! I’ve ordered from this place several times already because I’m a huge falafel fan, and honestly, I haven’t found anything else locally, that comes close. Their falafel tastes exactly like authentic Israeli falafel — no more, no less. It brings back the flavors of Israel, and I absolutely love this place. Highly recommend!
