    What makes it fun

    The word 'Yamas' is an invocation of good health and a celebration of life in Greek culture. 'Yamas' is derived from the term 'στηv υγεια μας', which means 'to our health,' and represents our family's enduring hope for the well-being, happiness, and success of others. It's more than just a phrase; it's a genuine wish from our family to yours. At Yamas, we seek to instill this spirit in all aspects of our operations. It's our tribute to the value of health, joy, and genuine friendships, all of which are firmly embedded in our Greek history. We ask you to join us in saying 'Yamas' and celebrating not just the food and drink we share, but also the communal warmth and hospitality that are at the heart of Greek culture.

    My husband and I went to Yamas on a Friday night for a date away from the kiddos and we enjoyed our time! The atmosphere inside and out is beautiful and well done, although I dislike that the patio is on the main road by the first station so you can hear the cars and trucks. They did play music later in the evening that seemed a tiny bit too loud at first but wasn't too bad once we got used to it. It was pretty quiet when we first got there around 5pm and then it became pretty busy, but that didn't interrupt the WONDERFUL service they offered. From the moment we walked in we were greeted warmly, acknowledged by any staff member that passed us, and waited on attentively and frequently. Everybody seemed really nice and our waiter was very knowledgeable and helped with our questions, as we had never eaten at a Greek restaurant before. We ordered the Calamari (squid appetizer), Astakomakaronada (lobster pasta), Giouvetsi (short rib pasta), Ekmek Kataifi (custard/cream-type dessert), and two drinks- the Artemis Spritz and Santorini Mule. We both thought everything was good (especially the dessert!) with the exception of the lobster pasta. Tbh I was not impressed- it was too bland and I felt like it could have been spruced up with a little something more (especially for the price). I wish I could have ordered some drinks and from the raw bar menu as I love raw food and the waiter recommended the sea bass but alas, I am preggo and am not taking that risk right now. But I will be returning specifically for the raw food and drinks! Overall a unique experience, Santorini-esqu vibe, and welcoming staff.

    The food here is amazing. Loved the fried feta as an appetizer and the filet mignon kebab. The portions are big and worth the price. Highly recommend!

    We had an awesome dinner. I was so full from trying the mezes that I wasn’t able to order the Bronzino that I came for. The octopus was very tender. Beautiful atmosphere and great service

    I think it was opening night. Although the restaurant was very busy, the service was good and the food was fantastic. I had the cod and my wife had the lobster linguini. The fish was fresh and perfectly cooked. The wine selection was very good. I hope they add craft beer soon. There is a lot of bar seating and the decor is very interesting. I'll be back. If the parking lot is full you can park at the church right next door.

    Incredible quality of the food… Tzatziki and octopus were unbelievable but not less incredible than mood and ambiance. Cocktails were fun with a Greek twist.Definitely will be back soon!
