I've been here several times. The atmosphere is very nice, with a lot of attention to detail. The service is also good and attentive without being intrusive. They used to have the best Greek salad with perfect seasoning. The last time I visited, the salad was very different and like something you would get with your take-out pizza from a...

Enjoyable evening with 8 people. Service friendly and efficient. Food was very good with fish our primary order. Special cold plate was solid, whole fish grilled tasty, salmon special very good, oysters really good, and sea bass excellent. Calamari was weak, too much batter and not enough flavor, frozen? Wine list ok, but it took several choices until we came...

My experience with Greek food is practically non-existent which is why I was excited to visit this restaurant. Upon entering I was impressed with the ambiance... soothing... as if I were on a relaxing vacation. The warm welcome from the employees and superb and polite service through out the evening was enough to keep me happy. The food itself was...

As a family favorite, Yianni's has yet to disappoint. Our last meal at Yianni's was a birthday dinner for my grandmother on Sunday, February 10, 2013. This was our fourth visit. From the atmosphere to the service to the drinks to the appetizers, entree's, and desert, everything was fantastic.
My son, age 10, LOVES the grilled octupus. We ordered 2...

We have been to Yianni's several times and always have an amazing meal. From the moment you walk in, you feel like you have been wisked away. The teal and cream decor have a Mediterranean feel. On our most recent visit, we took family members to celebrate a birthday. We started with 2 orders of octopus. It is not to...

My family has eaten here on several occasions and we've always been happy with our experience. First things first....the restaurant is absolutely beautiful and you feel like you're really dining in a tavern in Greece! Having stayed in Greece for a summer years ago I appreciate the authenticity. Yanni's has great food, service and atmosphere!

The food was great. Tender calamari, fresh fish main dishes, lighter options, including some non-salad vegetarian options, great drinks, generous proportions. Two complaints: Lobster special was overcooked and fried zucchini lacked seasoning. Our server was attentive and offered suggestions. The atmosphere was nice, especially when they played quieter music. Would recommend. Kicking myself for not going there sooner.

This was our first visit to Yianni's Taverna and we were impressed overall. Our visit did not start off smoothly. We had 7pm reservations and arrived at the restaurant promptly at 7. We were not seated until 7:25, but instead had to cool our heels in the lounge area. The lounge was an inviting space with comfortable low couches, but...

Having originally thought this restaurant was more of a diner, we were pleasantly surprised. It has a beautiful decor, upscale without being pretentious. Love the white leather sofas in the bar area, very relaxing to go with friends for Happy Hour and lounge on the sofas. You must try the white Sangria, excellent. Also the bar has an excellent selection...
