Customer Reviews

We brought a group of 17 to Yianni's on Saturday evening for a celebratory dinner. We had gathered old friends together for a vow renewal for my wife and I, and an unofficial college reunion. Some of the attendees we hadn't seen in decades. Your wait staff was fantastic and the food was absolutely delicious! Kudos to the kitchen, who pulled it all off with style. Freshly baked bread, oysters, well prepared and presented appetizers and mains, fantastic seasonal cocktails, and just the perfect ambience. Thank you for making our little gathering a success and helping us to create more lasting memories. Huzzah!

This has become our go to place. They have great straightforward stuff like burgers and fried chicken but then they have everything else! The menu is really extensive. Last night I had scallops with mac & cheese and it was ridiculous. My wife loved the fried chicken!

We started with the calamari it was very tender and it came with a milder spiced sauce and red cherry peppers and jalapeno peppers. My wife had the goat cheese and apple salad with arugula and salmon. She said it was delicious and I had the black and blue burger with bacon, avocado, tomato, and onion along with sweet potato fries. It was delicious if we come this way again we will definitely stop.

Excellent meal and establishment. You won't be disappointed. Nancy and I both had the Beef Tips Special, with Garlic Mashed Potatoes, green beans, cauliflower, and shallots. Rolls right out of the oven! All I can say is Yummy.
