    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!!!

    We had reservations and were sat immediately. Lackluster service; not horrible, but not attentive. The menu choices, appys, salads, and pizzas were quite delicious and well made. Not excessively noisy, overall a pleasant noise level. The restaurant has nice lighting and a warm feel. Not inexpensive; however, reasonably priced considering what we got for the money. We would return.

    Here is my take: Service: Outstanding: Attentive without being overwhelming, polite, and most importantly knowledgeable. Food: Delicious. Noise: We were there mid-week at 2 PM, A+ Wine Selection: The waiter knew his "stuff". We had two excellent bottles of wine. Overall: A+
