THIS WAS MY SECOND VISIT TO YAYO'S FOR MY PRE BREAKFAST BRUNCH... ALL OF THE FOOD AND SERVICE WAS EXCELLENT ONCE AGAIN... I CAN'T WAIT TO RETURN AGAIN AND AGAIN!😋😋
Yummy pernil with yellow rice and black beans! Great specials less than $11 on the right side of restaurant! Left side dine in is a little pricier but the steam table special is is where it’s at! Delicioso!
I was there last night, had the mofongo with shrimp 🍤 delish! My husband and I shared the flan, yummy. Our waiter was very nice. Can’t wait to go back.
If I could give zero stars I would. Team is not managed well. Manager was very rude. They made an error in the delivery and they told me to place another order to receive more food as comp for their error. But the second delivery did not include the promised food. Essentially they lied and I was stuck paying the extra fees. Terrible service. Manager was so rude.
Update: The owner is calling me dishonest. This is insane. I was told by an employee to place a new order and that they would add more food as compensation for failing to communicate that they were out of stock about something until the order arrived incomplete and after I had to call to ask about the missing food. But when I did this my second order arrived without the promised additonal and complimentary food. I called back and the manager said that isn't how they operate and that someone gave me wrong information. But it was already done so the nice thing to do (especially after messing up twice) is to refund the second order. Clearly this place does not care about good customer service in a city where restaurants are everywhere (better ones that do not sell subpar food might I add).

A beautiful, relaxing atmosphere. Great service and good food. MY career family and I have had good times and amazing memories for years. We celebrate the holidays, retirements, and just for a fun night out. Love this place.
Great location, Red Snapper grilled was terrific. Beans could use a bit of seasoning. Penil was not fresh, we asked to have it removed from our bill and was told we are most of it, which we didn't. Our waiter was terrible, he was inattentive, didn't explain how the dishes were served and was clearly overwhelmed with his large section he was assigned too. I feel because we didn't speak Spanish he was inattentive to us. The other young lady that helped us out was wonderful. I will return but will be asking more a more experienced waiter, well mannered. I always over tip however, when I'm being ignored by my waiter and am not being good service I do not too well. I hope management reads this review.
Great place! The menus are iPads which is pretty cool. The staff is nice and the food tastes good! They took my reservations and was ready before time! SALMON WAS THE BEST IVE EVER HAD. And I’ve had a lot over the years.
We went for a birthday celebration. The food was excellent and definitely budget friendly and we orderedway too much!! The Seafood Paella was out of this world. However, the staff is lacking. Took too long for our dinner and our waitress pretty much disappeared. She wanted me to sign the receipt again even though I already had paid the bill with the manager. I had to confirm with them that my bill was only processed once. Will I go back? Maybe.....
