Stopped in after shopping for a quick bite. Husband and I both got the chk shawarma (+ turnips), crushed lentil soup and falafel. Everything was amazing. The sandwiches were huge. Had enough for lunch the next day!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Yallah Express is an absolute gem! From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with a warm atmosphere and friendly staff. The menu offers a fantastic variety of authentic dishes, each bursting with flavor. I tried the shawarma and it was cooked to perfection—juicy, tender, and seasoned just right. The service was prompt and attentive, making the dining experience even better. I also appreciated how clean and inviting the space was. If you're looking for delicious food and a welcoming vibe, Yallah Express is a must-visit. I can't wait to come back and try more from their menu!
It's an amazing yet sad review! Having just discovered Yallah, despite this location being open for a year, I was anxious to try their chicken shwarma wrap. It did not disappoint. Simply amazing! The fries were crispy, cooked perfectly, and not burnt. Their garlic sauce is the best I have had. I wish I could give them more than 5 stars! The sad part is that they have been forced to relocate due to imminent domain. I am certain their new location will be just as clean, welcoming, and amazing as this location.
WE. LOVE. YALLAH! The flavor, portions and service is amazing! We tried their competitor due to them moving away from our home and they do not compare at all! I usually get the shawarma bowl, and I think it’s silly that they charge you to put the pita chips on the side rather than in the bowl. But if that’s my worst complaint I’ll take it. The rice pudding is also fantastic! I guess one of the owners makes it! Out of curiosity, I weighed my bowl and it was 1lb 14oz (lettuce base), my sons was 2lb 2oz (rice base).
This place is fantastic!!! The portion sizes are HUGE. You can get multiple meals out of the bowls. We used Yallah to cater a birthday party and the experience was great. They helped us figure out how much food we would need for the size of the party - we still had left overs! They had everything packaged up nicely and everyone RAVED about the food. Will continue to service this establishment. Thanks Yallah for multiple great experiences with your carry out and catering.
Seriously amazing food! Highly recommend! We came here after we tried their snack wraps last week. My husband and I each got a shawarma bowl. He got beef and I got chicken. Both half bulgar and half lettuce. HUGE portions, I’ll seriously get 3-4 meals out of 1 bowl. Fresh ingredients, friendly staff. You won’t regret this place! Pictured below are the bowls AFTER we ate!
