French toast and bacon
Kimberly C.

Indoor and outdoor seating options at this lovely establishment! Terrific vibe, unique menu, and super staff. :) We chose to dine outside as part of my Mother's Day celebration. I can't remember his name, but we had the most fabulous server. My younger daughter got the waffle and my older daughter and myself chose the French toast. LOVE the French toast! I will definitely be back!

West Indies Omelette
Doug K.

I think this is my new favorite breakfast/brunch spot in the area! It's a small space inside but we had no trouble getting a table for two on a Saturday morning. The service was quick and friendly. Their menu is fantastic! Super unique with all sorts of cool fusion dishes. I got the Big Bad Wolf (waffle with pork belly, candied bacon) and my wife got the West Indies Omelette. Everything was perfectly prepared and tasted great. They also have a bunch of cocktails and breakfast drinks which we didn't try today, but will next time for sure. We will definitely be back for the rest of the menu!

Poutine

Food was excellent!! I loved the breakfast poutine and my street tacos. Also had an iced coffee that was good too. I was pleasantly surprised to be seated quickly. It doesn't look like there's a way to make reservations online, so for a Sunday brunch that was great.

Yuca needs more attention! I was most impressed with the high quality ingredients, great service, and stunning features. Absolutely love the design! I popped in by myself for a quick bite, hoping to read a few pages in my book. Although it's not the coziest spot for reading, whoever styled Yuca killed it. The poutine was so good but had a bit more kick than I would've preferred. This is a me problem, not a Yuca problem. Even with the spicy jalapeños, I would order this again! 10 out of 10, do recommend.

Love this place in Bellevue Ky. The food is excellent and the service is great. We had a Cuban sandwich. Really good. Come in and have breakfast or lunch all day. Small lot and street parking.

12/6/24. Absolutely phenomenal first experience at Yuca. Perfect location in the local shopping district in Bellevue. The Chimi Chimi breakfast burrito might be the best I've ever had. Definitely will come back to try some of their cocktails as well.

Whoa! What an incredible experience! I love brunch. And i have been trying to hit Yuca for a while. Finally the stars aligned and i was able to make it over to dayton ky for brunch. It was so good! Coming in the door the space looks open, bright, sunny, and, clean. The restaurant was busy but not crowded. We sat at the bar and the waitstaff and bartender were super friendly and open to all questions. The menu is latin inspired breakfast and lunch. There are multiple Gluten free offerings which is listed on the menu. Yuca only serves breakfast and lunch, they do not do dinner. I started with a couple mimosas. They were delicious a little sweet, but very good. Everything on the menu looked delicious, food and drinks alike. For food, I had the fat zach. My girlfriend had the tacos. Both were really good. Pro tip: If you order a bloody marry i would request a pint glass. They are served in a punch glass which looks pretty, but not very functional. Net Space: 5 stars Food: 5 stars Cleanliness: 5 stars Service: 5 stars I highly recommend yuca. It's worth fighting the bridge traffic. Yuca is perfect for a brunch with elevated feel. This not a greasy spoon. It is a great spot to meet others and have a nice brunch

It was my first time to Yuca. I love it. Heather was our server. She was so nice from picked up my called for reserved the table and took care of our group. Making me feel welcoming. Prices were a bit high if you just look on the menu. Try it!!! THEN, Yuca proved that they were more than you pay for. Food was so delicious. My favorite is Big Bad Wolf. I have to say thank for who created this menu. I think I could eat it everyday. Love it. Ambiance was cozy and in style. Service was great. Overall I would recommend this place and cannot wait to go back. Thanks for having us

Good service, food was enjoyable, we visited as a family but would like to return as just adults for more drinks! The only downside was a huge group (4 tables pushed together) being so loud the restaurant was unbearable and we couldn't really talk. While not explicitly the restaurants fault that this group was so loud, maybe in such a small space they shouldn't allow large groups to push tables together?

Fajita greens
Lindsay O.

This is my second time coming to Yuca for brunch. I love how bright it is inside! I came in around 10 am and there was no wait time. I ordered the Fajita Greens, which I didn't have high expectations for because well salads for brunch is not my go to. The server asked me how I wanted my steak, and I was pleasantly surprised (Usually restaurants just have a default for the steak in a salad). The salad itself was great! The tortilla strips gave a nice crunch; the dressing was light and flavorful; and the steak was nicely cooked. I paired it with a mimosa. (You can also choose to get just a bottle of Prosecco with juice for $30). I was left feeling full, but not overly full where I would need a nap. On Sundays, the restaurant hands out flowers to the females! This is a nice little touch. If you like tequila, they have a vault, which opens up and you can see the tequila they have. It's a solid brunch in my opinion.

Cubano with fries
Desiree B.

Very happy that we tried Yuca! I had confused it with Cedar but realized once we arrived in Bellevue that this was not the place we had visited before. We walked in around 12pm and were seated immediately. With it being a smaller / downtown size restaurant I thought there'd surely be a wait. I ordered a cocktail. The espresso one with coconut... I can't remember the name. It was delicious and not too sweet. I was stuck between the French toast and the Cubano but I took our server's advice and went for the Cubano. The sauce had a little kick, which was different and appreciated. The fries are insanely good. My husband ordered the Argentinean filet and eggs. He ordered the steak medium rare, which was spot on but his over easy eggs came out over hard. Our server brought out and order or over easy eggs and comped them. He said that without the yolk the dish was pretty dry but with it, it was quite good. Service was superb. I really appreciated her recommendations and willingness to correct the mistake.

Drink Menu February 2024

A friend and I stopped by for brunch on Sunday. We lucked out with walking in and getting a table right away at 11:30 Yuca is located in a former bank, lots of natural light, which was coming in thanks to a sunny day. Almost drink and food menu. It was so hard to pick what we wanted to eat. We did start with.4 Amigos tapa The chips are made fresh and came out, warm, and the salsa, guacamole & queso was so good. My friend went with the biscuit bowl. She said was really good and I ended up with the fat Zach I also enjoyed the margarita beer combo Redneck Margarita I definitely will be back to try more of their wonderful food and also great service The one item my friend commented is they definitely need some type of sound panels, it was very loud in the space & hard for her to hear for us to have a conversation it was also very busy.

Shrimp tacos
Jayme H.

What a snazzy restaurant! I was in town coworking with a colleague and Cincy local. They suggested we visit Yuca for lunch so we made it happen. When we arrived we were totally surprised by the space. It's beautiful, with a ton of natural light and wooden features. When you first walk in you can see into the kitchen, which I always find really cool. Towards the back of the space is a giant vault where they display their alcohol options. It's all lit up which makes it stand out. After grabbing a seat and looking over the menu, we decided to share the shrimp tacos and their four amigos tapa plate. The shrimp tacos lunch came with four tacos and they were just the right amount for sharing. The tapas plate included their house made tortilla chips and four dips (a red salsa, a green salsa, guacamole, and a ghost pepper salsa). The tacos were flavorful and you could tell everything was fresh. I will give a friendly warning that the ghost pepper salsa was more than we could bear. And we like spicy food so it's not for the faint of heart. The ambiance was lovely, the service was friendly and attentive, and the food was solid. I will say that the food menu is small, but they have a hefty drink menu, including spiked coffee. I have to imagine the weekend brunch there has gotta be a vibe. I would definitely come back.

We stopped in prior to meeting up with friends before dinner and a play. We sat at the bar. Agnes…read moreand America were a breat of fresh air, professional, fun and the service was wonderful. That menu looks amazing! We have to go back. Thank you ladies!!

Been eyeing Pensive for a couple years and finally made it out this week with my Wife. We're eager…read moreto find a top-tier burger place in the area, though unfortunately this fell a little short of our expectations. Decided to split the Silver Charm for an appetizer, and it came about ten minutes later. The onion rings were decent, good flavor and somewhat crispy. The accompanying sauces of barbecue and ranch were both good as well, though both were missing something to elevate them a bit more I think. The flavor was good, but quite a small portion for $10. My wife ordered the Strike the Gold Burger and I went for the Northern Dancer Crispy Chicken. The sandwiches came out about ten minutes after we finished the Silver Charm, which was perfect timing. She liked her burger pretty well, and I took a bite too. The "caramelized onions" were definitely more sauteed, with still a bit of crunch, and otherwise I could really only taste the barbecue sauce, which was tasty, but I would have liked some more varied flavors. My chicken sandwich was... a bit disappointing. Rather than a chicken piece that appropriately fit the bun, it was more of a chicken strip, with bites that would only yield bun. In addition, because the chicken piece was so small, it was also extremely dry, which is a bummer because I actually thought the breading was very tasty. The chipotle aioli was decent, but didn't pack as much spice or flavor as I was hoping. And with only two toppings and a sauce on the whole sandwich, I was disappointed that the tomato was rather mushy and didn't seem fresh. I will say the fries that came with our sandwiches were crisp and well seasoned, and somewhat unfortunately the best part of my meal. Based on our experience, I didn't hate our dinner here and if someone invited me to meet them here, I wouldn't say no, but I'm also not going out of my way to revisit.
