Absolutely delicious culinary experience! Wow I'm so glad we found this place. Beautiful, fresh and healthy food with the warm comfort of freshly fried falafel and seasoned sautéed peppers and onions. I also upgraded my platter from the garden to fatoush salad and am so glad I did. The crispy pita croutons were so tasty. My husband has a lamb pita and said it was also very good. All the staff were super friendly and food came out fast. Will definitely come back! read more

I dont know if they are under new management, or just a bad day. I ordered chicken swarma, im use to it comes with a bed of hummus, i got it without hummus and top w veg. I ordered tabboleh on the side since i know the swarma doesnt come with any of tabboleh. I never had tabboleh sweet eekk. It goes to the trash asap. The desert is always delicious. Meat grape leave wrapped is good. It just kinda expensive for the amount we received. read more

Previously had a great baba at Yalla. Reasonable. Last time my mate went in an ordered it to take out, it was $12. A bit much for eggplant. Astonished when he brought it home, I then looked at their menu. Prices have skyrocketed. Too rich for my pocketbook/ read more

Outstanding authentic Lebanese restaurant. The raw kibbe, fatoush salad, kafta, pita bread, sambousek, kibbeh and spectacular baklava are standouts. Service was a little slow but quite friendly. Nice casual but not too casual ambiance read more

Our go to for Mediterranean take out. The food is delicious the only reason its not getting a higher score is the limited options and price feeling a tad high for what you get. Also the takeout is never ready at the provided time and the area for waiting is located in the dining area so you end up feeling like you are crowding the people eating their meals. Still havent found better though read more

Past year most restaurants have been cutting back on quality. Not Yalla they are consistently offering great quality food and service The staff is very friendly and professional. They are attentive to customers needs and provide quality service. read more

Outstanding authentic food! The food selection is amazing. We never leave there hungry or disappointed. We had the chicken shawarma. The flavor and spice is awesome. Try the tabbouleh it is the best in the area. Give this family ownership a try and you will not stop coming back. read more

Great authentic Lebanese food! Small cozy place. Service was fast and friendly! Great bartenders with cool unique specialty drinks. All the food was fresh, hot and amazing.! Only downside, They need a bigger parking lot! read more

2026 Jan 17: 1) Yalla mixed grill 2) hummus 3) jallab. The hummus tastes great ! It is different from what we get from Paterson NJ , more sour, tomatoes on top instead of chickpeas but more appetizing as a result. The jallab did not come with seeds like the picture on the website mixed grill is great for three to share, the beef kebab, lamb kebab and chicken kebab are the best, better than Patterson NJ, and the rice is more fragrant too. read more

My husband and I LOVE this place! Amazing Mediterranean spot. Hummus and cheese rolls are a must every time we go. Service was good! Not over the top but also checked on you just enough, not a huge rave or rant there. Seems like they're remodeling right now and going for a modern bling look, so it's kinda cramped by the bar area but it's temporary I'm sure. Bar looks well stocked and seems they're trying to lean more towards drinks as of late with a huge drink menu we haven't seen before. Overall, amazing food and will continue to come back for it. read more

The Lebanese-style chicken shawarma came in a lightly toasted Syrian bread wrap filled with a flavorful blend of chicken, tahini, fries, and pickles. With the delicious homemade hummus, rice and grapeleaves, I left stuffed and happy! Typical of my Lebanese and Syrian culture, the staff were so warm and treated us like family. We took some baklava home to devour. read more

We have been to this restaurant a few times and had very good experiences. This time we ordered 4 wraps to-go: 2 American style shawarmas, 1 Lebanese style shawarma and 1 falafel. The Lebanese shawarma was the favorite amongst the family. The American style shawarmas needed more seasoning . They were ok but not up to the standards we have been accustomed to from this restaurant. The falafel was tasty but a bit dry. It had good veggies in the wrap but the radishes and pickles were largely cut.cut, challenging to chew. We have had better from them. Maybe the chef has changed, I hope that person comes back. read more

The food is meh and that's being kind but the waiter was very nice . The restaurant is very small but looks like they are expanding I like the black theme they have going on but that's about it read more

Great Lebanese food. The atmosphere is nothing to write home about. There was a private party in the main room. Only 1 wait staff but no one else was in the non party area. Atmosphere was almost reminiscent of a take out pizza place. Ironically i used to get my hair done in this space before the restaurant took over the space. Same bathroom and it explained the layout. If you were here before you can see there were little renovations done. What they lacked in decor they made up for in taste. Kibbee wrap was tender and great flavor. Baked fish was great!. Fresh and excellent flavor. Lamb was tender and cooked to perfection. Overall excellent food and service. Worth the trip read more

The parking lot is kind of awful-tight, and with small spaces, but the smell coming out of the place was heavenly! We came in, and had to wait five minutes to be seated at what appeared to be the last available . After we sat down, we waited for 20 minutes before our order was taken. Not an auspicious start to the meal. We ordered the Yalla Let's Mix It Up On The Grill, a big platter of kebabs and rice (or fries) and a side salad. They literally mean A side salad, despite it being listed as a dish for sharing. The salad, a bowl of lettuce with a couple slices of tomato and cucumber and some red onion, dressed in a mint vinaigrette, showed up after about 10 minutes. It came with a plastic bag of warm pita wedges, but not with my coffee, which arrived after we finished the salad. The coffee was decent, but my Bride took one sip of her water and declared it "unfortunate," and that was *before* she found an unidentified piece of something floating in it. Then the platter hit the table, the chicken kebab hit my mouth, and all was forgiven. The meats and vegetables were grilled to perfection! The chicken and lamb were SO tender, the kufta so perfectly seasoned, I would actually have to go to Lebanon to look for better Lebanese food. The rice was neither sticky nor dry, and seasoned nicely. With so much rice and two each of four types of kebabs, I'm actually glad that we only got one salad between us. I'm not sure that I could have eaten another bite. And I wanted to eat another bite very badly, because they had baklava. Flaky, crispy, chewy, delicious baklava. We each got a piece. Even here in Taxachussetts, supper was only $42.69 before tip. And since the entire staff appears to be the one young man running the entire front of the house and his dad on the grill, in the end, I can't even be mad about the wait. TL;DR- if you're in a big hurry, wait until you have time to properly appreciate this fantastic food. Definitely worth stopping for supper, and make sure you save room for the baklava. But maybe don't drink the water. I would definitely stop by again if I ever find myself back in read more

The service was prompt and very personable. The baba ghanouj was delicious with a lovely smokey flavor. The lamb kebab was cooked perfectly and the grilled kafta a lovely blend of beef, onions, parsley and spices. We thoroughly enjoyed this find and will gladly be repeat customers. read more

I was looking for something a little different, and I found this great place. My friend is vegetarian and he was very happy with his meal. I had a chicken kebab with hummus and fresh pita bread. It was delicious. read more

Good food but pretty overpriced, and thus not worth the repeat visit. The food wasn't that spectacular to warrant the prices. It tasted fresh and flavorful, but just not that amazing. read more

The whole family enjoyed their food. And the people were nice. It's a small, cozy place. I'll go again.

Unexpected wonderful experience. We were heading up to Methuen to grab some stuff from the Lebanese bakery, then realized they're closed on Sunday, so Yelp led me to Yalla for lunch and some takeaway snacks (pita and baklawa). Everything we ate was almost as good as my Sitto's. The baklawa was super crispy and not too sweet - just the way we like it. We will be back again! read more

Been ordering take out here for a year or so. Always amazing. Finally did fine in and it was even better. Service was great. Had the mezze platter, chicken shawarma wrap and the delicious clotted cream dessert with pistachios and honey. Will definitely be back. read more
