Beef and Lamb Plate
Serena W.

I ordered a beef & lamb plate with greek salad. It was delicious. Portions were huge so had leftovers but overall was tasty. I loved the greek salad too! I dined in but this would be a nice spot to order for to-go and eat at the beach. I loved the tzatziki sauce too! Recommend trying if you want Mediterranean food. There were plenty of seating inside and some outside. Service was fast and friendly!

Very generous portions, delicious food, and friendly service! Plus it has a great view. The atmosphere is inviting and casual.

Great taste and very large portions. Friendly service too. One of the better options for quick food in Alki

Ice mocha
Robert S.

This place was right across from the beach originally we were looking for ice mocha , but bucks was full and I saw the sign and went in. Super friendly people in there got ice mocha and the platter gryo. You know when the ice mocha is good make it like they would for themselves , it hit the spot and much much better than bucks for sure . Again I don't how people do it but when food comes to your table hot you enjoy it more and it did, ran out bread , I think they called it naan, so I wrapped the beef around fries and dip it in the sauce I don't if that's a thing but it was a nice crunch inside the wrapped . I would go in place for just the ice mocha btw theory also has a small selection of ice cream, boo yah

Ice cream and Mediterranean food! What more could you want? The food here is very good and the service was great :) it's a got a classic beach restaurant vibe going.

Super nice indoor and outdoor seating area with recently added coffee and breakfast items to their menu. I'm a huge fan of the food and coffee after my first visit in a while. Prices are reasonable with HUGE breakfast and a 20 oz iced latte costing around $15 total. The owners are incredibly nice and accommodating. I ordered to go and was in-and-out in under 5 minutes. They clearly wanted to make sure I had a good experience and it paid off.

Well, I tried searching for a reason to jump on my chair and scream OPA but I just couldn't justify it. Started the day with a smile knowing I was gonna test the new Gyro place on Alki today. Unfortunately my taste buds did not agree with the mental vision of what I was going to eat. I ordered gyro plate to get an overview of the quality of meat and amount I would get. Needless to say I was disappointed with the paper thin shavings of meat as shown in photo. Lacked taste and high quality I had expected. I've dined on many gyros in my time on earth including at the Acropolis in Athens, Greece and this was a disappointment to my Athenian sensory organ. I'm sure some will disagree however a true Athenian will agree this is not how The GREEK nations NATIONAL Sandwich should taste.

Pretty good greek food here right off of Alki beach. The service was really friendly and they have gelato. Pretty yummy.

Favorite gyro I've had, and fries were some of the best I've had too! The service was great. The place was clean. We sat out front and watched the sunset at Alki Beach. What more could you ask for? So glad we went here instead of our original plan down the street.

$7 bag-frozen "Greek" fries.  No sauce, barely any cheese.

I hate to dump on a new neighborhood business I want to support, but I wasn't impressed at all. The portions are small, prices are high, and quality is not up to par with my expectations. While the view and location is nice, there's a lot wrong with this place. A gyro is $14 without even adding tax, tips, or service charges! A plate (which I had) is even more more expensive, contains less protein than I would expect to find in a sandwich, and is accompanied by your choice of flavorless rice or frozen crinkle-cut fries. Want them "Greek"? Those are $7 and include only a tiny cup of feta cheese and no sauce. The meat itself was nothing but a salt bomb. Bland rice. The tzatziki sauce was very mild with barely even a hint of garlic or any flavor at all other than bland white yogurt. The side salad was not bad and honestly probably the best part of the meal. Pita bread is decent. Oh, there's also no hot sauce available! I don't care if it's traditional or not, I want it and your food clearly needs it. We had takeout and ate across the street on the water which was nice, but it just made us feel bad about the amount of non-compostable packaging that encompassed everything. From the meal down to the utensils and each individual sauce, it just seemed incredibly wasteful. I'm surprised businesses in Seattle are still allowed to use this crap. I wanted to like it... but that's such a cliche thing to say in a Yelp review. This is just going to be another failed beachfront business in a challenging neighborhood. Restaurants come and go on Alki all the time and I predict this one will be no exception. There are a few in the area like Spud's and Blue Moon Burgers that have stood the test of time, but the thing that sets them apart is good food. I recommend trying those instead, or if you are really in the mood for gyros, try Gyro Heroes up the hill. It's a way better deal and way better food.

I had the falafel sandwich and would not return for it. Falafel salam and gyro hero, both in west Seattle, are way better.

Ambiance is awesome! Lots of people so make your reservations like us. We ordered a shared appetizer - pita bread and all 6 kinds of toppings hummus, tzatziki, and all they offer. Each one of us had an entree ranging from lamb burger, chicken, mushroom and lamb kebabs - all so good. It was so tender and tasty. Enough to fill us. Love it! So good! Kebabs were served on a hot plate. Nice presentation. Service was outstanding. Good attentive service .

This is a lively place, always filled with a lot of upscale looking customers. So the atmosphere is quite loud, but fun in a buzzing way. We were seated quickly, as we had reservations. Our server Charlie, was engaging, friendly and on top of things. We ordered the shared dips---olive tapenade, eggplant, hummus, tatziki with some warm pita triangles. They're all good and a fun way to start the dinner. We each had kebabs---lamb, chicken and mushroom. All good, moist and tender all poured with a jig of ouzo on a hot skillet. The onions in the bottom get browned and crusty, so good to eat. One had a lamb burger which looked juicy and served with delicious mound of fries sprinkled with rosemary. Food here has always been awesome. Skipped dessert as we had homemade cookies to eat at our next stop.

Highly recommend the three dip (current seasons is beet and it's my fav) with the flat bread. The flat bread comes out steaming. Trumpet mushroom is Smokey and juicy. Lamb comes in braised form and kebab both really good The soft serve swirl has the perfect texture and flavor. Would come back again!

We arrived on a Friday night at roughly 7:30 and there was already quite a wait. For a table for 3,…read morewe were told we'd have to wait for about 2.5 hours which we honestly were not thrilled to do. However after we expressed that we didn't want to wait that long, we were told that if we wanted outdoor seating they could actually seat us in less than half an hour. We chose the outdoor seating option and took a quick stroll in the quiet neighborhood before coming back. Our server told us that Homer's plates are meant to be family style and shared so their general recommendation is 1 large plate or 2 small plates per person. For us, we ordered the Set of top 3 spreads, lamb ragu on tahini and we were served with 5 pieces of warm pita. We also ordered Grilled Pork with Stinging nettles, raw albacore tuna with taramasalata, and smoked and shaved kohlrabi. Our server warned us that the pork was going to be on the fatty side but we were still surprised by how fatty it was. The spreads for the pita were amazing as usual-- their seasonal flavors taste amazingly fresh. Our table wanted to order more pita and when someone came by to take the empty plate they asked if we wanted more which we did let them know but even by the time we finished all the plates, we never got the additional pita so we just took it off. The Kohlrabi was an amazingly refreshing palette cleanser before the pork-- super light and refreshing. After we finished our meal we grabbed some soft serve from the window and wow, for 7$ it's quite a lot of ice cream! The flavors that were offered when we were there was Dark Chocolate and Kettlekorn. I sampled the swirl and the fusion of the saltiness of the kettle korn, the slight bitter and sweetness of the dark chocolate was immaculate. Final thoughts: very cool experience, inside I could see the open kitchen and the stone wood fired oven and the ingredients tasted amazing. However it is a little inconvenient that it's walk in unless you're a party of 6 since the lines and wait can get incredibly long. It's also difficult to find parking in the area. Very neat experience!

From looking at the menu, I haven't seen too many of the items listed offered here in Seattle. This…read morewas exciting to me as I enjoy food from the Middle Eastern part of the world, and the entrees do look very enticing! We went on a Saturday around 2pm and it wasn't too busy at the takeout window. The restaurant is only takeout - there are benches right next to the takeout window, but there are only enough spots for 8 - 12 people (2-3 people per bench). The only other seating is at the nearby street seating offered by the neighboring bars, which I can see being restricted during peak hours. Parking can be very difficult if you plan on driving, there is only street side parking that is usually full, and nearby paid parking in lots. Service is fast, after we got our order, we only waited 5-8 minutes for our food. We got their recommended Soujouk (Beef) and Cheese Wrap for $16. The wrap is long, I would say about 13 - 14 inches long, and I can definitely seeing most people getting full after enjoying one of these. The flavors are nice and you can taste the spices from the sausage - I could taste cinnamon front and center with other earthy spices lingering in an aftertaste. The wrap is very decadent, the cheese is hearty and indulgent and that with the spiced sausage and textural difference with the cucumbers is pleasing. Do note with how indulgent this wrap is, you will accumulate a ton of oil in your wrapper as you enjoy it - a nap afterwards is in your future if you eat a whole wrap! I think that Yalla Seattle is a good stop to try these cuisines in a casual manner and the price is reasonable. There are some other items on the menu that kept my attention and I would totally revisit to try the other items offered by this restaurant.

The batinjan (eggplant) and labneh wrap here has now taken its place in my pantheon of best…read moreeggplant bites I've ever had. Yalla is a walk up window, and there are just a couple of benches right outside where you can eat, and according to other reviews you can also go to Montana Bar next door with your food. The menu is posted in a couple places right next to the ordering window, and it's pretty easy to parse. Almost everything there is what I'd consider a "portable food", meaning something you don't need a plate, fork, and knife to eat, which makes sense given that it's not a sit down restaurant. They have veggie saj, meaty saj, mezze, a few sides, and a dessert. I really like their concise menu. We tried the baba ghanoush ($9.5), which comes with saj on the side, a batinjan and labneh saj wrap ($12), and a halloumi grilled cheese (halloumi grilled inside saj, $13). As you can tell, the saj underpins everything at Yalla, and their saj is excellent. Warm, soft, flaky, and tearable, it is perfect for both dipping and wrapping and grilling. The batinjan and labneh wrap is bursting (literally) with tender grilled eggplant, a rich sauce, and tangy, creamy labneh. It is truly one of the most delicious eggplant dishes I've ever had. The halloumi grilled cheese definitely hits the spot, and is more filling than you think by looking at it. Baba ghanoush is so smooth and flavorful, and I love the pomegranate seeds on top! The folks who work there are super nice, very friendly, and food comes out quickly. Prices are very reasonable, and I will definitely be back to try some of their meaty saj! This place is going into my regular rotation, for sure.
