Awards & Recognitions

The Arabic word Yahala "يا هلا" is a warm expression of welcome, meaning "You are most welcome." It embodies the spirit of Middle Eastern hospitality, inviting guests to indulge in a memorable dining experience filled with generosity and authenticity.

"Yahala has excellent Middle Eastern food and desserts that taste just as they would in Lebanon. The prices are very reasonable, the selection is large, and the food is all of good quality unlike a lot of so-called Middle Eastern food in KL. Servers are very quick and attentive, even when the restaurant gets busy which it often is. Will come back for an authentic taste of the Middle East again and again!"
