    Disgusting chicken wings
    Malik H.

    Not good I don't like "blackened" over fried dried out looking chicken wings that are supposed to be "soulfully" golden brown and fresh looking I returned my entire meal cabbage and Mac and cheese as well I didn't trust it after looking at those wings. Not a happy camper WONT RETURN

    Receipt

    I'm walked in and made a to go order at 6:45pm and had to cancel and ask for a refund at 8:15pm. Literally sat in lobby for 90 minutes while staff prepared and served everyone else's meals noticing me waiting. Not only did my family not eat our expected meals I'm still waiting to be refunded $68.00. All she could say to me is "I'm sorry about that". As a loyal customer that kind of service is UNACCEPTABLE! I would love to talk to management.

    Lamb chops with mashed potatoes and grilled chicken with Mac n cheese. Both with greens

    OMG this food is so good. I got the lemon pepper lamb chops and my aunt got the grilled chicken. I had to stop eating to write this review. She stopped eating to get some cornbread but I didn't want to stop because I didn't want my food to get cold. I'm writing this with my one clean hand. It's expensive but worth it. They don't take cash. The only thing I didn't like is the cornbread is like cake. I want real cornbread.

    Every time I'm here to charge the electric car, I'm looking at this spot and I choose grocery shopping instead. Eventually today was the day, I decided to walk to this spot and give them a try with the weather outside being perfect. Before I walked in, I thought this was a full service restaurant as I looked at the menu and the prices, however my opinion changed to a fastfood restaurant to a self service restaurant. We had fried catfish with seafood salad, grilled chicken breast with light jerk sauce and Mac and cheese. The catfish was perfectly fried golden brown, light and crunchy. The chicken was flavorful and tender. The sides were great, the owner did let us try some yams. The staff was friendly and loved the plants in the store. I personally would have liked the chickens jerk sauce a lil more spicy. We spoke to the people at the adjacent table and they loved their food too. The most popular dishes are lamb chops and turkey. I don't either, but will come back again with someone who eats it....aka my brother who loves lamb and turkey. YELP CHECK-IN GETS YOU A FREE DRINK. HOMEMADE GINGER SOMETHING...TASTED LIKE SUGARCANE JUICE AND WAS AMAZING. Collard greens and cabbage also comes highly recommended. I'll definitely be here again, make sure you give it a try, and you won't be disappointed.

    Mac and cheese

    At first it seemed like a fast food chain. It took a few minutes to get our food not too long though. But everything was really fresh. Mac and cheese was quite creamy. Grilled chicken was quite flavourful. Fried catfish was really tender, and light with a good crunch. The owner/chef came in and had a good chat enquiring about our feedback. She recommended trying turkey wings and lamb chops. When I asked her about the candied yam, she actually gave us a sample to try which was really good as well. The pineapple ginger tea was amazing. Must try drink. Quite unique.

    Definitely not a sit down location! Order for pick up or to go! The food is deliciously amazing! They do not accept cash! So best bet is to go to the kiosks to pay or order online. I'm not from around here but this food smacks!!! I will definitely recommend and whenever I'm around I will pick up a plate and put people on. Definitely the food is made with love!!!

    Couldn't believe they were opened on Easter Sunday and couldn't be more grateful. Love this place for comfort supper. Had BBQ chicken, Mac, potatoes, and cornbread. Staff are always quick and accommodating with online ordering and pickup available.

(That's not a bad thing) Ya Yas is conveniently located in downtown Schenectady near State street on an unassuming corner you would pass easily if not paying attention. No worries, though there's plenty of parking and even a parking garage next door. I went on a slow Thursday night and was met with the owner who I assume was Ya Ya herself. She immediately greeted me with the house specials along with the homemade sides. I ordered the 1/2 chicken breast, collard greens, yams and corn bread the perfect southern food combo. I'd never tried collard greens but they were tasty and felt like a cross between spinach and Brussels sprouts. The bill was reasonable at $18 with plenty of food so you definitely won't go home hungry when leaving Ya Yas. If you're in the mood for some southern hospitality in Upstate NY, give this place a try I will definitely be back.

But we were driving through town and my husband said he wanted fried chicken and I said we're finally gonna go eat lunch at yayas. So yeah he got the fried chicken meal with yams, cornbread, Mac salad, and string beans. I got the fried catfish with the same sides. Everyone working was so kind and came to check on us. The food was sooo good. I had enough leftovers to bring home dinner too.

For Tuesday dinner, the place was not packed at all and had great Caribbean music playing to help set the mood. We ordered the jerk chicken wings appetizer, and entrees of curried goat and Ox Tail. The wings were fall off the bone marinated chicken with a heavenly host of flavors that were spiced nice with not too much heat (would've posted pictures but they were devoured). The curried goat had a beautiful aroma and bouquet of curry flavors but was also not over powered with spicy heat. And the Ox Tail...... drool worthy, savory, tender, and stewed with love and effection. We both shared sides of coconut rice and steamed cabbage which were perfectly complements to our dishes. Dessert was a maple cornbread that made me believe my aunt Barbra was back there cheffing.. Will definitely return!! And will spread the gospel of Good Religion far and wide.

I add that point because if you know New Orleans food, you'll know how discerning native New Orleanians are about food - period. Upon arrival to Good Religion, I was a little shocked by the look and it being in NY; however, I am accustomed to good food from unassuming places. I will admit I am not a fan of buffets, but Good Religion is more than a buffet, it's your auntie's kitchen. There is a difference!
