Best Family Style Restaurants in Sherwood

Third time at Yalla. They have this dialed in! Excellent flavors, nice presentation, comfortable dining room. Service is always "spot on". What impresses me most, is how they handle unexpected situations. We showed up for a reservation (for 4), and they offered a table in the front of the restaurant by the door. Was a little cold and breezy on that day, so we asked for a different table. We were told that unfortunately, none were available, as they had a large party coming in, so many tables had been combined. A minute later, the hostess came back and told me they'd rearrange things for the other party, and offered us a table further away from the door. Very nice gesture - they totally could have just forgotten about it, but they made an effort to be accommodating. Same reservation, we were waiting on one last plate (food is served family-style, so plates come out throughout the meal). Asked about it, and the server told us that she thought it was coming up. She left, and a couple minutes later, the manager came out and apologized for the delay. He acknowledged that they had missed the dish, so he immediately brought it out, with an extra appetizer, and comped them both. Again, could have just brought the plate and not said anything, but they went the "extra mile" to provide an exceptional experience. Will certainly be back.

Was seated promptly. Jenna was our server, and she was wonderful. The food was just okay.

Staff were professional, meal was delicious, holiday trimmings were an added bonus. I would certainly come back!

This is a hidden gem located in a strip mall in SW Portland. Great food and beverage menus with the service at the same level. We love the food selection for happy hour but the main menu is always dialed to what we are looking for in a chic wine bistro type of place. Quint but open with some outside seating. We will keep this one on the short list.
