Southeast Portland​のドッグフレンドリーなベストレストラン

This place has always been a favorite, but last night’s dinner was extra perfect. We came in as a group of 9 to share an intimate wedding dinner and the restaurant went out of their way to make everything perfect for us. The area we were seated in was adorable and very quiet - even when the restaurant was packed we felt like the only ones there. Excellent food, delicious drinks, great service. Can’t recommend IST enough for a celebration!

Third time at Yalla. They have this dialed in! Excellent flavors, nice presentation, comfortable dining room. Service is always "spot on". What impresses me most, is how they handle unexpected situations. We showed up for a reservation (for 4), and they offered a table in the front of the restaurant by the door. Was a little cold and breezy on that day, so we asked for a different table. We were told that unfortunately, none were available, as they had a large party coming in, so many tables had been combined. A minute later, the hostess came back and told me they'd rearrange things for the other party, and offered us a table further away from the door. Very nice gesture - they totally could have just forgotten about it, but they made an effort to be accommodating. Same reservation, we were waiting on one last plate (food is served family-style, so plates come out throughout the meal). Asked about it, and the server told us that she thought it was coming up. She left, and a couple minutes later, the manager came out and apologized for the delay. He acknowledged that they had missed the dish, so he immediately brought it out, with an extra appetizer, and comped them both. Again, could have just brought the plate and not said anything, but they went the "extra mile" to provide an exceptional experience. Will certainly be back.

Dinner was very delightful. Service was excellent. The only thing that surprised us was the $15 piece of pumpkin pie. But I guess that’s expected on Christmas Day. It was wonderful!!

First time on Xmas Eve, and they did not disappoint. Incredible food and service!

I love this place! The staff, owners and wine are just fabulous!!
