A little of the Middle East. A home in Santos.
Welcome to Yallah
On Rua de Santos-o-Velho, Yallah opens onto the neighbourhood with pale-blue tables, plants and a terrace facing the French Institute. Step inside and the street gives way to a vaulted room in a former chapel, with botanical pictures on the walls and tables set beneath the hanging greenery. Come for lunch, return for dinner, or take a seat outside and enjoy this corner of Lisbon.
At the table, Middle Eastern cooking brings together hummus and warm pita, colourful salads, roasted aubergine and dishes to explore over lunch or dinner. Behind Yallah is Hagay Elle, whose eye for detail comes from a life in photography and whose sense of hospitality makes gathering around a table part of the story. Explore the menus, discover the room, and find your own place at Yallah.
