Some of these best smash burgers I’ve tried, not to say the customer service was very good. I’d definitely come back here when I come visit again!! 20/10!!

Such a nice little restaurant. The food is full of flavor and the staff is super nice. My picky toddler ate her whole dinner. None of us had any food left. That's a win!! Definitely recommended ?

What a find! Flavorful, decorative and clean atmosphere, and very economical. Was looking for a walkable place from PPG that's good for a group and it's literally right across the street. The menu is build-your-own so everyone can get what they want (think Chipotle for Mediterranean food - but much better quality and flavor!). It's very economical too, which is rare for this area. They even brought our group free lentil soup samples that were SO good! They have a kids menu as well. Will be coming again!

Excellent lunch experience. We had an unexpected group of 12 show up. They were patient and really accommodating to the entire party. Food tasted delicious and fresh. Prices are very reasonable. Had a shawarma bowl and the options were excellent. Someone else at the table got the wings and had great reviews as well. Do not skip the baklava

Our best decision while visiting Pittsburgh was to wander into Yaba’s. They delivered delicious food with the kindest service. Everything was so fresh and flavorful, and the staff was so warm and inviting. It felt like having dinner at home in the best kind of way.

Yaba's Middle Eastern Street food offers a delightful journey through Middle Eastern cuisine, blending authentic flavors with a modern twist. The menu is filled with delicate, well-prepared dishes that are not only tasty but beautifully presented. From the perfectly spiced falafel to soup and mixed rice bowl, each bite is a flavorful experience. Whether you're a fan of classic Middle Eastern dishes or trying
something new, Highly recommended!

First timer. The gentleman working was kind and helpful. The ingredients in my rice bowl were delicious and cohesive. Wonderful spices and flavors. Nice portion. Just what I hoped.

Grateful to find a Halal spot in Pittsburgh close to the hotel and the university. They have really nice wall decor, colorful and ethic. So cool! The food was delicious. We ordered chicken shawarmas with fries and drinks. The staff were super friendly and accommodating.

I took my wife and kids and ordered a rice bowl, smash fries, swarma fries, a kids swarma and a hummus side. They got confused by our order and took half hour to serve. The smash fries had only meat and fries. They served the pita bread that came with hummus side in a plastic bag. The other foods were okay. I was surprised this has a 4.9 rating. I would say this is like a middle eastern style Chipotle.
