You can also find traditional steak and chicken dishes if that's more your thing. I like YaYa's because the atmosphere and food alike feel elevated yet still approachable. Service here is full-service and polished - bordering on fine-dining. Servers wear button down shirts and a tie. Although there's no strict dress-code enforced, most people dining here will be a bit dressed up depending on the occasion they're celebrating. You'll be just fine in nice jeans here too. We frequent for date night and don't veer far from the Chicken Gnocchi appetizer, Spinach Salad, Chicken Penne, Shrimp Risotto, and Filet. Their Scallops dish is good here too that comes with Saffron Orzo. They will bring out delicious bread and Baba Ghanoush at the beginning of your meal. I could make a meal just out of the Baba Ghanoush it is addicting! The Chicken Gnocchi is an appetizer but could easily be an entrée. The chocolate soufflé dessert takes about 30 minutes so be sure to tell your server ahead of time if you have something sweet in mind. The Buttercake dessert is good as well but super rich. We went for dinner last night and could tell something was off with both the Front-of-House and Kitchen. Lights on higher than normal, staff members appeared a bit frantic including the host, and the food did not visually look how it normally comes out nor did it taste exactly right. Some things oversalted. I don't want to rate 4 stars instead based on yesterday's experience since overall we've had a 5 star experience the past years coming here but this night specifically felt subpar. They may be going through a staffing shortage which is tough and we understand.

It's been a while since I've been here, and my friends and I decided to celebrate all of our August…read morebirthdays here. I was surprised how busy they were on a Tuesday evening. They have a good sized parking lot and it was easy to find a close spot. First, a big thank you to the manager for setting us up in the private dining room. That really made our dinner so incredibly special. I would really like to bring a group here to enjoy that space. Our server was Alex and she kept our wine glasses full and the plates of food coming. Our meal was paced well. She took very good care of us. Our friend ordered the mezze plate which included pita points, crackers, whole rainbow carrots, and celery with three dips that included whipped feta, hummus, and a red pepper hummus. They also brought out their delicious fresh bread with baba ghanoush. The bread is so perfect that it doesn't even need any type of spread. I ordered the side spinach salad, which was a refreshing way to start my meal. I decided on the five cheese pizza with olive oil and it was very good and very rich. I was only able to eat two slices. My dining companions ordered pizza and pasta dishes. Everyone was very happy with their meal. I concluded my meal with a phyllo wrapped brownie that came with chocolate sauce, fresh raspberries, and cream. It basically looks like a brownie burrito. It's quite decadent and I enjoyed it. My dining companions ordered an after-dinner, espresso drink, and another friend ordered the bread pudding, both with happy outcomes. I'm looking forward to coming back to try brunch.

I recently ordered the Chipotle Chicken BBQ Folded Flat and was genuinely surprised by what…read morearrived. The menu photo and description led me to expect a flatbread -- what I received was a single corn taco. As a pescatarian, I substituted shrimp for chicken and was charged an additional $6.89 for the swap, bringing the total to over $17 for a single taco. What arrived was cold pesto shrimp in a cold corn taco topped with a few black beans and pieces of corn. A combination that didn't work, and one I did not order. At that price point, I expected something much closer to what was advertised. I'd encourage the restaurant to update the menu photos and description to "taco" so future customers know what they're ordering. When I called, I was offered a refund only for the $6.89 shrimp upcharge, which didn't feel right given I couldn't eat the dish at all. I won't be ordering the Folded Flat again, but I hope this feedback is useful for others and for the team.

When I walked in, I was surprised at how big it was. I took a gander at the menu and decided on the grilled chicken rice bowl and a small piece of the pistachio baklava all to go. It wasn't long until my food was ready and off I went. Since I was hungry, I figured I'd try the baklava to hold me over until I got home. To my surprise, it was freezing cold! I've never had cold baklava in my life, so suffice to say it was a bit unsettling. Since I was focusing on how cold it was, I couldn't even tell you if it was actually good. Since the baklava wasn't hitting, I was really hoping the bowl would but unfortunately, that, too, came up short. There was a garlic sauce on top but it did absolutely nothing for the bowl. I think the bowl lacked flavor and was disappointing considering how good it looks in all the pictures. While my first experience wasn't the best, I'd be willing to give them another shot but it won't be anytime soon.

The food will be very familiar from the perspective that everything we had was excellent. We started with calamari, and to our surprise there were also a small group of onion straws on the plate. It was served with 2 sauces (one marinara and one aioli - both were excellent). Don't skip the fried lemons, they are an added treat. We then moved on to the Napoli salad, it is as described on the menu...crisp, and appropriately dressed. Then we had the special pizza of the evening, it was a black garlic base (not strong) with mushrooms and burrata on top - delicious. We also happen to be sitting next to the area with the pizza oven - a must see if you are there. We did sit inside, but outdoor seating was available. What might not be so familiar, but I thought was great, was a more casual atmosphere, and decor, I would classify is as upscale casual. Our server was very pleasant, the only thing that surprised me was the time in between courses seemed a bit longer than expected, but that gave my friends and I a chance to catch up. Overall, a very enjoyable experience and I will be back!!

It was our anniversary so they were so nice with the free dessert & champagne flutes. The salads had nice sizes & the dressing was very flavorful. Appetizers - Crab cake & shrimp were heavenly.

Ambience was nice, room was dimly lit and the room was spacious, similarly designed as Brick Top in Frotenac Good value considering post-Covid, Tariffs & inflationary price surges We'll definitely be going back!

They also have other inventive offerings in their cocktail menu and a varied selection of wine by the glass. Normally, I prefer a locally owned establishment but the location was convenient and honestly, the menu sounded good. I did not get a steak, much to my personal dismay but my friend did and I thought he liked his. We started with some drinks (wine for me and my one friend and a cocktail for the other). Our waiter was very pleasant and gave us plenty of time to decide in between friendly chatter. We had a little mishap where my friend's wine (red wine) fell off the tray and went everywhere. They gave him some towels and soda water to clean and were very apologetic. He was wearing jeans, thankfully! They even took it off his bill to compensate for the trouble. The manager came out and again apologized. We started with some calamari which were delicious and freshly prepared. They were light and crunchy with a wonderful marinara accompaniment. I ordered the ahi tuna prepared medium, served on top of sushi rice. Both the preparation and flavors were exceptional. We were offered dessert twice but simply could not accommodate any more. The food we had were good and satisfied our appetite. I would, of course, like to come back here and try their steak someday!

Whether you're getting a burger, fish, or steak - you can taste the quality in every bite. I like their filets but their "world famous" burger is not to be missed! Be sure to save room and walk next door to smokehouse and get a cookie!

I finally stopped ordering it because of the temperature and it wasn't as tasty as it was in their early days. I got the bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich and it was very good - and the right temp! The staff are great, they get food out fairly quickly, the place is nice - we'll be back and we'll hope we hit it on a day when everything we order is served at the right temperature!

I wish I remembered our servers name. She was the best! Her timing was perfect and she had a great personality. I really need to write reviews right away so I can remember everything! Our cocktails, starters, and entrees were all delicious! I had excused myself to go to the restroom and the server took that time to talk to the others about a birthday dessert. It was so good!

Stevie was my server that night and she provided friendly top notch service. I ordered a spicy margarita for my cocktail. I was a little disappointed with the drink. It was very cucumber forward, had a nice heat, but lacked that signature lime flavor and tartness required of a good margarita. The brussel sprouts and cheese grits were a must try for me. The pork chop was the perfect entree to accompany these sides. The brussel sprouts were charred and crispy. The balsamic glaze paired nicely with the charred flavor. The pork chop is served in a very generous portion juicy and tender. The citrus sauce paired nicely with the pork. The cheese grits were creamy and delicious. All in all a delightful meal. The portions were generous enough for me to have hearty meal of leftovers the next day. The menu is fairly concise with burgers, pizza, pasta, sandwiches, beer/pork/chicken entrees, and salads. They have something for just about everyone. The appetizer menu offers loaded brussel sprouts with bacon balsamic and feta. This would have been too much to tackle by myself. I plan on bringing my friends next time to share this dish.
