Shalom Y’all’s Downtown Location Will Temporarily Closed for a Refresh and Rebrand Expect a more casual menu as well as grab-and-go items at the new Lil’ Shalom space. (Henry Cromett) Updated May 6 at 9:28 PM Another downtown Portland restaurant is shutting its doors—only this time, it’s temporary. Shalom Y’all’s location on Southwest Alder Street near 12th Avenue is scheduled to go on hiatus Monday, May 10, for a bit of a refresh. When it welcomes back customers in early June, the shop will be rebranded “Lil’ Shalom” and feature more grab-and-go items rather than a full-service menu.
