Yella's — Restaurant in Hawthorne

Yumm yummm Yumm found this place with my friend on a hungry day and boy we were happy! We shared the chicken sandwich, wings, burger and some delicious desert. This place hit the spot! Yallas has been owned since 1967 and was created by the family to honor the dream and legacy of Grandpa Yella. As soon as you walk in you are greeted with a friendly smile from the staff and the atmosphere feels cozy as you are surrounded by grandpa Yella’s family photographs on the wall. Now let’s talk about the FOOD! The menu is not like a typical take out place, it offers amazing options from sandwiches, deli classics, hot subs, chicken sandwiches, burgers, small bites which include out of this world wings and wait for it HAND-SPUN SHAKES!!! In addition they offer a catering menu which is perfect for corporate meetings, birthday and family gatherings! I cant wait to order some platters myself for the next Super Bowl party! What I found unique and cool are the different flavor options of the fountain drinks, they are all made with pure cane sugar. Some of the flavors include Root beer, black cherry, lemonade, orange etc..

Lastly I need to highlight the legendary strawberry shortcake HAND -SPUN shake. The size is generous, and you can easily share it with 2 people. I have no words to describe the explosion of flavors and satisfying sweet taste! You wont regret trying it! these milkshakes are sure to hit the spot.

I had an amazing experience, delicious food! An absolute must in New...

Update 3 Mar 2022:

We've been back three times since. The chicken sandwiches are FANTASTIC. We love them and get them at least once every other week if not more often. Haven't tried anything of the below since.

Summary: The food was mediocre. One very good dish two mediocre.

Pro: chicken sandwich Con: the rest

We ordered a burger, a buffalo chicken sandwich, and I don’t remember the other sandwich my colleague got but it was with salami and mozzarella.

The burger was very well done so I only really got to enjoy the bun and the pickle taste. I know that it is a tiny patty so you have to expect it to be well done. But the flavor was basically potato bun and pickle with a hint of ketchup. Maybe that seasoning on the meat needs to be reevaluated for the size of the Patty changed a little to make it a little thicker and smaller in diameter.

My colleague said his sandwich was mediocre. He was unimpressed and said he probably would not get food from this establishment again.

I also got the buffalo chicken sandwich and ate that. That sandwich was delicious. Chicken had just the right amount of spice for it to be very enjoyable. It was a thick juicy piece of chicken. Arguably just as good as Chick-fil-A may be better. I will definitely get that from...

I first learned of Yella’s in May of 2023. The family was gathered at my son’s new apartment and my son suggested we get takeout from Yella’s - they have such a large, varied menu, even my husband's very selective palate was able to find something to eat. There were 5 of us and we all enjoyed our meal. I go to Yella’s once a week now. What I like best is “The Rochester,” which is a sub-style sandwich. This sub is filled with roast beef and I always get it Yella’s style. It’s large enough that I could eat it for two meals…….but it’s so hard to put it down and wrap it up. This past weekend I hosted a family gathering with my siblings and their spouses. I decided to have my party catered by Yella’s. Everyone ordered off the menu and everyone enjoyed their lunch. The people who work at Yella’s are friendly and it looks like they enjoy working together. There’s always dance music playing (from the 60’s) and I’ll find myself swaying to the beat as I wait for my sandwich to be made. It’s a happy place and you get a lot of sandwich for your money. Try Yella’s - you’ll go back...
