Good food! We tried few varieties and everything tasted really well. Owner is a nice person too. I would recommend this place to anyone who’s looking for Mediterranean food. Space is a bit tight but they compensate that with good service.Dietary restrictions: Halal

Delicious and delightful! I was fortunate to be able to chat with the owners while my falafel was prepared from scratch. Absolutely lovely people. I’m so glad I discovered Ya Hala. I’ll be back.

Awesome Mediterranean food, more like eating homemade than a restaurant! They have all of the usual Middle Eastern standards like hummus, shwarma, and kabobs (try the lunch special to get a sample of their kabobs) but what makes this place unique are the dishes that you won't find anywhere else. My favorite dish is the Fatte - pieces of pita and eggplant in a creamy garlic yogurt sauce, technically it's an appetizer but the portion size is like an entree! My wife likes the hurra, a pasta dish with lentils. Call and ask for the frequent specials throughout the week like saidiyah (delicious fish on top of rice with slivered nuts) or mandi (slow cooked chicken and rice). Service is friendly and pretty quick considering that these meals are hearty and homemade rather than fast food and portions are very generous.

My partner and I had the pleasure of dining here not long ago, and we were so enamored that we decided to revisit today. The food is exceptionally delicious, and the overall ambiance feels pristine. The owners and staff are incredibly friendly and accommodating, making our experience all the more enjoyable. We have developed a fondness for this place! Our absolute favorites are the chicken shawarma sandwich and the mixed grill entree, which are served alongside hummus, a side salad, and rice.Parking: Free parking since theres a parking lot, but limited spaces

Agreed with all the 5 stars thus far. More a takeout place. Only seven seats if dining in. Today, I only noticed 2 people working. Friendly. I did not mind waiting. I watched food videos on the TV while I waited.Our food was served at the right temp. Meat was tender and juicy. Seasoning balanced. Not salty. Vegetarian combo plate available. Lentil and Fava bean side dishes available. Would go back to try sandwiches. Food made to order.

Very yummy halal food. Falafel is so fresh and good. Tried the mix grill today and veggie platter. So yummy and delicious. Can’t wait to try the shawarma and more options.
