Hi Sugarplum
Decent Mediterranean/Turkish/Lebanese cuisine, but Palestinian food seemed to be erased from the menu. A pity.

Shalom Y’all had been highly recommended and did not disappoint in the slightest. Unless you’re particularly adverse to train horn jumpscares (railroad beside the restaurant), the infrastructure and atmosphere are elegant and beautiful. I was comped a mixed greens salad with fantastic dressing to start and then had a Moroccan mint tea and a Shalom Y’all plate which together had to have been the best meal I’ve had in Portland since Dove Vivi. Mike provided great service. Drink menu was very thorough. Only issue is tough to park near. 10/10

Great delicious food! Service was ok since they were busy, which is understandable
Great atmosphere, super friendly service, yum food. Felt a little pricey for simple food like hummus and falafel. Delicious labneh

I love this place. Some of the best food in Portland. Nothing ever disappoints. The sup doc drink is just incredibly delicious and such a gorgeous color. The service is great. Ambience is 10/10.
Best Mediterranean food in PDX, hands down! Have been wanting to try this place for a while and it did not disappoint. In terms of food:Shaved broccoli salad - Really unique flavor mixing citrus and feta. Was on the saltier side, but expected for a salad with feta dressing.Hummus with pine nuts and pita/cucumber - Incredible hummus with perfectly toasted pine nuts and nice hint of spice. Pita was fluffy and more than big enough with the cucumber addition. My partner exclaimed this was her favorite hummus ever.Falafel - Beautiful, crispy, and delicious. The sauces (schug and tahina, I think?) were the stars here.Harissa potatoes - Massive portion of crispy potatoes and really unique harissa. Not very spicy, but definitely a delicious alternative to fries.Chard and feta safayech - My least favorite dish; probably wouldn’t order again. Pita was crispy, but the filling was a little too heavy on the chard flavor and texture.Drinks were all amazing and the service/vibe was top notch—our server (Miriam, I think) was super friendly and attentive. I hope to return to try more dips and grilled dishes soon!Vegetarian options: One of the best restaurants I’ve been to for eating vegetarian; so many options and everything with meat is very clearly labeled.

Great Mediterranean food. One of the best lamb chops ever. I normally try to have a new dish every time I go to the same restaurant but I got hooked on the lamb chops so bad that I don't think I can ever try anything else! Also get a pita to dip in the herb infused olive oil comes with the chops. And pair it all with a nice IPA.
High marks for good food, service, and vibes! We tried several menu items and they were all really good. The Spicy red lentil soup wasn’t really spicy but it was full of good flavor. The Turkish coffee hit just right and I do believe I’ll have it every time I return to Shalom Y’all.

The food was astoundingly, good and creative. The staff was helpful and knowledgeable. Our waiter had excellent recommendations and helped with portions.
The food was good, although the portions are kinda small. I'd have no complaints at all if it wasn't for one of the waiters deliberately ignoring me when I didn't get my entire order brought to my table. I paid my 20% gratuity, still, but that was so deliberate that I just don't think it's worth going back to.

Other than the flafels being a little too salty and crunchy and the salmon being a bit underdone, everything was so good. Turkish hummus was a delight, steak was cooked perfectly, lamb carnitas was a fresh take on a usually heavy dish, pita was delicious, and chicken Sharma served like a potato pizza was interesting
