Yalla Yalla

First time in this Yalla Yalla, previously I had always went to the one that was in Soho, but it has recently closed, so we tried this one and it's fantastic as the old one was! Will repeat!

This Lebanese spot offers a decent dining experience with a variety of traditional dishes. While it may not excel in any particular aspect, it provides a satisfactory option for those seeking a taste of Lebanon in the city.

Four of us ate here a couple of weeks ago and chose the iftaar set menu. All of us had mixed opinions on this. 1)The food: the starters were so delicious, filling and fresh. Especially the soup, so so good. The mains were very bad, to the point all four of us barely touched our food. I put this down to the restaurant trialling tagline dishes because I’ve not seen anyone else post it in the photos. The lamb cubes for the lamb tagine were actually cheap tasting meatballs and the chicken tagine had a strange sauce nothing like tagine. Again, I’m guessing they were trialling this, because it was so drastically different from the other food we had here, and other people in the restaurant seemed to really be enjoying their food. The dessert was AMAZING. One of the most DELICIOUS desserts I have ever had in my life 2) the service: the service was IMPECCABLE, I cannot emphasise how amazing it was, how attentive the servers were, how they treated you like you were in their own home and brought out extra lemon for us, gave my friend a prayer mat to use and were generally so friendly. 3)price: very fair especially for London. Other comments are: a halal/ Muslim restaurant should really have a shattaf in the bathroom or its equivalent. Please take that meatball tagline off your menu, we all ended up giving our mains to the homeless and I’m sure they were disappointed too. I’ll still come back because everything else was delicious and service was excellent.

En hyggelig opplevelse. God veiledning og god mat, både middag og dessert. Anbefales.

A great experience. Lovely food and wine with friendly staff.

Food was average, service was poor, would not return, other nearby options cheaper and better quality, the venue atmosphere was ok.
