"I had a great time at Yara. It was my first time trying Lebanese food and it was delicious. I feel like the menu was very accessible for a good that was foreign to me. The server was also kind and gave us some recommendations. They were also accommodating to dietary restrictions. My only complain is that my sister and I both asked for no pickles but there were pickles on both of our plates. I would suggest the hummus of course as well as the Mouhamara. The cauliflower was also great! The portions are pretty large and can be shared. They also had live music starting at 8:30 but that may have been for a private party."

"We arrived without a reservation. We found this placed based on Google reviews. We were seated immediately. Staff was very friendly. It was not overly crowded. It did take a bit for our initial service (I think they did have a larger party in the back), but after that service was prompt, courteous, and professional. The ambience was very nice and relaxing. The food was served promptly with us having a babaganoush appetizer. Everything was on point. Our main came out in a reasonable time and was delicious. I would recommend giving this place a try. We will return."

"Yara in Midtown is serving up elevated Lebanese Mediterranean flavors in a stunning, modern space! ✨ From the warm, pillowy pita to the perfectly grilled meats, every bite was a hit. The All Grill Platter is a def must. Tender lamb, juicy chicken, and flavorful steak cooked to perfection. But if you’re skipping meat, don’t worry, the prawns are just as incredible! This spot is perfect for a chic dinner with friends or a date night. Highly recommend! Like & Follow me on @butteronaroll_ for more recommendations 🧈💛"
