Service was excellent. I ordered an 18 ounce NY Strip that was perfectly cooked and matched with great cab. Very pleased with my overall experience.

Really lovely restaurant and the food is delicious. The noise level is so loud that my party of 6 could barely hear each other unless we yelled. That’s the only bummer about Yamas.

I love this restaurant- its food is fantastic & atmosphere is great! My service this past time was slow and several items we requested were out. It took a very long time between appetizers & our main meal coming out. I think it was an off night or perhaps not staffed adequately for a Monday evening. Overall, I’d go back because the food is phenomenal.

This was our first night here. The ambiance was such a cool factor once entering. We had a table for 2 and as the host is seating us she places us all the way in the back in a corner. We asked if we could sit somewhere on a booth end she was very upset having to move us. Idk how it was an issue if it was not in a busy state. It could have been handled differently but at the end of the day we focused on the positive and enjoyed our evening. As for the food, omg delicious!! 10 out of 10. Highly recommend and will be back!
