    We loved our meal so much, we made reservations for the next day! Our server was exceptional, and the food was delicious. The worst part about this experience was in writing this review! Not only did they want my cell number AND then a verification, but then they wanted our email, and ANOTHER verification! It’s not like this is a bank account for goodness sake! We just wanted to give credit to our server!

    The food at Yalla was all delicious, the hummus with burnt ends and radicchio salad to start were so incredibly flavorful. The short ribs, skewers and delicate squash were all wonderful. Cocktails were well made and good wine as well. This place does not disappoint, so lucky to have it so close to home!!!
