Le Yaca began in 1964 in Courchevel, a tiny, country village in the French Alps. Daniele Bourderau & Gerard decided it would be fun to open a small restaurant. When friends learned of their plans, they told the hopeful restaurateurs they were crazy to think people would drive eight kilometers on a winding, icy road for dinner. Daniele and Gerard hesitated for three months and then decided, “yaca le faire,” a contraction of the French phrase “il n’y a qu’a le faire,” which basically means, “let’s do it.” They called the restaurant Le Yaca as a gag, but the name caught on with customers who were amused by the pun and contributed to the restaurant’s lore by inventing “yaca-isms” of their own: yaca y aller (let’s go). Daniele came to the United States and opened Le Yaca in Williamsburg. Daniel Abid bought Le Yaca in 2001. Daniel worked and trained in such prestigious places as “Le Pre Catelan” and “Lenotre” in Paris; “L’Amandier” and “Roger Verge," and to top it all off, “Alain Ducass

    Le Yaca is consistently a premier restaurant! Lunching and dinning there is always a treat!! The food, presentation, and warmth & professionalism are consistent season to season & year to year. Located adjacent to the Williamsburg historic district, La Yaca is a lovely hour from Richmond via your choice of routes. Wines by the glass are outstanding, whether one orders ala carts or from one of the two 3 course menus, the size & presentation of each plate is perfect. Dining in La Yaca is perfection!

    We had a great birthday dinner at Christiana Campbell Tavern Stephanie our server was excellent, there was some informative entertainment, and the food was delicious. Every single dish that we had was amazing. The specialty drinks are also really good. I had a whiskey punch and it was amazing! Totally recommend the Christiana Campbell Tavern. They did a great job post Christmas. I have to say that the crabcakes were excellent and we are from the Chesapeake region… So we know good crabcakes!

    We did a round of dinner visits to three of the colonial taverns during Christmas week. The wait staff/Historical interpreters really make the experience and we had three very good ones. The food was all good but I didn't have high expectations for the beef and I was not surprised that it was good but not great. We were there for the experience and all the other food was pretty good as were the drinks and local beer. It was a fun time and an experience that we'd probably do occasionally when visiting WIlliamsburg. We'd recommend it for anyone who hasn't been
