YELLOW is a Levantine café founded by Chef Michael Rafidi, debuting in Washington D.C.'s Navy Yard in 2020 next to its award-winning sister restaurant, Albi. Expanding its presence, YELLOW opened its Georgetown location in 2022 and launched a flagship spot in Union Market in 2024, offering a vibrant menu and unique pastry and beverage programs inspired by Rafidi's upbringing.

Executive Pastry Chef Alicia Wang leads the pastry team, creating a selection that merges Levantine flavors with classic French techniques, including innovative items like Za'atar and Labne Croissants. The café also features a thoughtfully curated coffee program celebrating Arabic coffee culture, with unique offerings such as Baklava Mocha Lattes and Coconut Cardamom Iced Coffees.
