Benjo's tacos is fantastic. We saw that it's of a shared space with Empire Donuts, and it was still…read moreincredible! Since we are pescatarian, we ordered the black bean birria tacos, and it was delicious. If you're a vegan, they also have some options. They had some indoor and outdoor seatings as well. They offer vegan cheese and consommé, which is also great! The trio of black bean tacos comes with a side of consommé and slaw, making it a delectable combination. The ambiance was fun, and one can't resist the temptation to go for an Empire Donut after the tacos! Great service. I highly recommend this place to everyone!

We stopped initially for a quick ice cream bar but these were no DQ bars, they are completely hand made with unique flavours. At $6.00 each they are a touch pricey but totally worth it. In our 1 week stay in the area, we made a point to stop by everyday they were open. BYW the drinks and coffees were a 5/5 as well!. They also used biodegradable straws, cups and spoons. Cool to see a little operation be environmentally conscious...

This is exactly my favorite kind of restaurant. My best friend knew it too. He loves this place and…read morehas lived on the island 15 years. Knowing that Lebanese food is my favorite of all this was one of our first stops in my two weeks stay. This is a family owned place with the owners behind the counter and working in the kitchen, they appear to be husband and wife, and they couldn't be more friendly or kind. They were so very nice to us and answered all of our silly questions. The food here is magnificent! I had never had tabouli fries before, that was the first. My buddy said their fries were excellent and they are, they are double fried and very crunchy. That is my favorite kind of fry. Pillowy soft on the inside too. The beef-lamb shawarma was special. We got the one with the hot sauce and added more. We are both also chilli heads. I will absolutely be bringing my wife here when we return to the island in the fall. Yalla is 5 stars all the way. Lots of locals in and out while we dined. They know this place is special.

Four of us for lunch... I had the halibut burger which I…read morethought was tasty (grilled with tartar sauce, pickle, lettuce, tomato and onion). Other three had the panko oyster burgs. Hubby defined his as heavily breaded, chewy flotsam. My MIL also thought the oysters were chewy. Hubby didn't give me a bite...knew it wasn't for me. Fries were great...nice and crisp. Cole slaw was bland. Don't bother. Might go back for fish and chips (they can clearly fry things nicely) or the halibut burger. Outside table was nice in the spring sun.
