    We all love the homemade options here! Hubby loved the hummus! I love the falafels And most of all we love supporting the mom and pop spots that put such love into what they make! Yalla! Get on over and order everything! Now I'm drooling thinking about even the smoky sumac on it all OH and the FRiEs are actually BETTER than anywhere I've had!! How do they make them sooo perfect? GET THE FRIES Folx!

    YaYa's Kitchen Review YaYa's Kitchen is a fantastic little family-owned business located just outside downtown Stockton, near the courthouse. There's public parking across the street, although street parking is pretty limited. The selection here is amazing! They have a great variety of Mediterranean food along with American favorites like burgers, sandwiches, fries, fish and chips, specialty sauces, homemade hummus, and so much more. Everything is made with fresh ingredients, and you can really taste the care that goes into the food. I recently tried their burger, and it was truly amazing. The ingredients were so fresh and the burger was so good that it was quickly demolished! The fries came with a specialty dipping sauce that I've honestly never had anywhere else. I couldn't get enough of it, and they still gave me a very generous portion of the sauce. They also have fresh juices, canned sodas, and bottled drinks that they keep chilled. They'll even give you a glass with ice so you can keep your drink cold while you eat. If you haven't tried YaYa's Kitchen yet, you really need to stop in. Whether you're craving Mediterranean food or looking for a great burger, sandwich, fries, or even fish and chips, they have something for you. It's a small, family-owned business that definitely deserves your support. Stop in, say hi, and tell them Mike sent you!

    Absolutely loved the food here! Worth the price for their big servings. The place was very organized and clean. Staff were lovely as well. We will definitely come back when we're in Stockton! Thank you, Yaya's Kitchen!

    I had the lamb combo and it was very yummy. We dined in, and the inside decor was also very nice. The lady who served us was kind and gave me recommendations.

    "Genova Bakery" has been a staple bakery/delicatessen for residents in the Stockton and greater San…read moreJoaquin County area dating way back to 1918. Located directly at the corner of N. Sierra Nevada and E. Flora St. in the heart of downtown Stockton, this place is absolutely nostalgic from the outside with its classic signage, green entrance door, and a true Italian feeling as soon as you arrive. I absolutely love when small family owned-and-operated businesses retain that look as it keeps the tradition and heritage alive and well. I came here with my lady during the afternoon on Saturday 8/22/2026 at around 2:00pm. Parking was surprisingly easy to find as the surrounding area has an abundance of mid-century homes. Upon entry, you are greeted with the aroma of freshly baked bread, well-stocked aisles of cookies, jams/jellies, homemade pastas, olive oils, sauces, spices, wines, and even their own merchandise that includes t-shirts, mugs, and other unique items. Much of the Italian groceries are similar to what you'd find in a bigger city like San Francisco. The real winner here are the sandwiches. During their regular business hours which are 6:30am-4pm during the week and 6:30am-2:30 on Saturday, they have multiple employees rolling out a wide variety of their award-winning sandwiches. They carry some of the best Italian cold cuts including Hot Coppa, Mortadella, Prosciutto, and Pancetta. And when you pair that up with some amazing cheeses on their own warm Genova bread, that is an ultimate combination. Since we had come a little bit later in the day, much of the homemade breads were sold out. However, we did purchase a loaf of their milk bread which we used for sandwiches and even French toast for breakfast. Keep in mind that they are closed on Sunday. However, if you come for a sandwich, you might experience a little bit of a wait during their lunch rush. But the good news is that the prices here are very reasonable at only $10 for a fully loaded sandwich (which is less than many grocery store delis). All in all, this was a very pleasant surprise as I had never stepped foot into this small business until 2026. With excellent service, decent prices, but a smaller amount of baked goods than other bakeries, I am giving "Genova Bakery" an above average four-star rating.

Pay attention to the times as they are only open 5-6 hrs a day. This place is a small place where you order at a window and wait for your order to go. There are no tables or seating for dining. We were immediatley great by a nice gentleman...i think the owner. Then a nice older lady greeted us for our order and answered any questions we had. The owner came out and let us try tri tip straight from the smoker you can smell. The sampler was so delious. We all order individual orders each to see if we liked our dish and would recommend to order next time. I got The Valley Clucker the chicken sandwich 6in with grilled onions, mushrooms and bell peppers with pepper jack cheese. You can pick your variety of 4 cheeses. The sandwich was Oh so fabulous. The 6in was plenty, as a 1 foot long you definitley would take home for left overs. My co worker got the Fork It Fries. They were plenty massive enough for a meal. I'd say this is kind of a hole in the wall place, but service is great and food is great too! It is situated in a neighborhood and can easily me mistakenly passed up. I would HIGHLY recommend this place. You will enjoy and like anything you get here. I will be coming to order here frequently now i know its just down the street from work.

    Another "triple D" spot marked off my list…read more A great deli. The people are friendly, lots of Italian groceries, sandwiches, other items for sale, meats, cheeses, this is a full on Italian deli. Their specialty, though, is the ravioli. Tiny little pillows of goodness, the main three ingredients are beef, cheese, and a spinach/Swiss chard mix.. , They make a lot of of them, and they are actually made on a ravioli machine that is roughly 100 years old. Hey, if it ain't broke, don't fix it. I bought a pound and a half bag of ravioli to go. I had mentioned that I was in town from Sacramento. Without me, even asking, he put together a bag of ice for me to sit on top of the bag of ravioli,, so I could get them home. That was very nice of him. I also bought a bottle of imported Cacio E Pepe sauce. The price for everything was very reasonable. The place is cash only, but they do have ATM in the store if needed... The ravioli were so good, Rich, and creamy, and the spinach/Swiss chard mixture was perfect. The sauce was very good, I could taste the pepper, but it didn't overwhelm the rest of the sauce. The next time I'm in town, I'm gonna come in and have a plate of the ravioli with their marinara sauce for lunch. I will definitely be back. Thank you for a great visit
