Great experience from start to finish with a few exceptions, but they didn’t affect the overall experience much – pesto on Chicken Pesto Flatbread was salty and Chicken Wings weren’t seasoned as well, lacking salt.

We made a reservation online and assumed it was a typical seafood restaurant. We were pleasantly surprised! The menu is Greek/Mediterranean. We had mussels for an appetizer and bouliabassie and shrimp scampi for entrées. All were OUTSTANDING! To top it off for dessert we had a strawberry shortcake. Also amazing. If you are looking for something that is NOT typical, please stop for an amazing dining experience!

This is a fantastic place. My wife and I have had multiple meals here and they are consistently great. The cocktails and wine list are innovative and the food is great. The Provençal wings are not to be missed. Had the salmon special this go around and it was very good.

Very pleasant atmosphere and great views!! Located directly across from the beach it’s a go to for anyone in the Gloucester area! The meals came out fast, service was lovely, and the quality of our meals spoke for themselves. Would recommend the shakshuka and gumbo, but really can’t got wrong with any option. Will visit again when in the area!

Took my longest Uber ride recently and the driver was from Beirut. We were talking about Lebanese food. He said some friends of his had a wonderful Lebanese restaurant in Andover. When I looked it up, I realized they had opened another restaurant Yella on the water in Gloucester near me. Today, we went and true it. Very nice place. Food was delicious and very authentic. My wife had fab salad with homemade felafel! I had the grilled fish. Lots of Zaatar and garlic! So good! Nice outdoor patio across the street from the Boulevard! Service was super friendly! Definitely recommend!

We really loved our dinner at Yella. View was beautiful. The server was understanding w our young kids and brought out their food asap. The hummus/beef appetizer was great. My husband and I ordered pasta dishes. Everything was fantastic. And the vanilla dessert was an excellent surprise. Our best meal so far on the north shore and this has been our 6th visit to the area. Definitely plan on returning. Thank you!!

My mother is from Syria so I normally won’t have any sort of Arabic food out because it’s never as good as my mom’s… But I tried the hummus awarma and was so impressed. It taste like something she would make. I only wish there were more Arabic options on the menu but I love that everything has a Mediterranean twist. It’s been a while since I’ve been this excited after trying a new restaurant. The service could use a little polishing but the decor, vibe, and views from the patio more than make up for it. Highly recommend!

Getting to watch the sunset over the water adds to the ambiance of this adorable little spot. Their crowning achievement is the best chicken wings ever! Normally chicken wings are so saucy and greasy that you need a bib to protect yourself. These chicken wings have a Mediterranean flair, dressed in fresh herbs, tomato and garlic and were perfectly cooked. I know they are known for seafood but I thought our fish was just okay. Perhaps I need to return for another sangria on the water to find their seafood masterpiece
