    It was Valentines night, so they were well booked up and busy. However, I thought it would cause them to get folks in and out even quicker to accommodate the many bookings they had. We had a 2 hour dining experience with only three courses. Our cocktails took quite a while. The first course got to us before our cocktails and one of the managers brought us sparkling wine because he noticed we didn’t have our cocktails yet. That was a nice gesture. Ironically, our cocktails were delivered immediately after he gave us the free bubbly.

    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!!!
