"Great for late nights out or a quick lunch, the menu at this takeout window next to Montana Bar in Capitol Hill consists of a variety of tender saj wraps (saj is an Arabic flatbread) that come filled with Middle Eastern staples, from awarma (ground beef confit) to za’atar spice and labneh. Yalla’s owner and chef, Taylor Cheney, designed the menu around the recipes and techniques she learned while living and cooking across the Middle East and often does pop-ups with menus dedicated to the regional cuisines of individual Middle Eastern countries." - Alana Al-Hatlani
