   Great brunch experience. Really cold day so only the inside was open and not too crowded. Brunch menu is extensive and it was hard to choose what to get. We started with a dish (can’t remember the name) but was essentially warm patties of lightly fried feta cheese served over a creamy tomatoe sauce. It was amazing. I had a cappuccino and the Greek omelette. It was huge and was covered in super crispy shoestring potatoes. The herb seasoning was amazing. I could have split the omelette it was so large. My friend had the Greek pancakes which looked amazing with yogurt on them. I’m more of a savory breakfast person versus a sweet breakfast person so I didn’t really appeal to me, but it looked beautifully plated. Restaurant is beautiful and welcoming. I particularly enjoyed all of the wall decor. If I go back for dinner, I’d love to try the grilled octopus.

   Food is always good but several key menu items not available (dolmas and sea bream). Service was a bit spotty and slow but waiter was very personable. It is loud inside but too cold to sit outdoors that evening. Overall, a great place to dine!

   Amazing spot! Highly recommended. The sangria was divine, and calamari was phenomenal. I will come back.

   Love Yamas! Second time there and definitely not the last time! The food was amazing. Having been in Greece a year and a half ago, I appreciated how authentic the food was. We had Saganaki, Spanakopita, Greek salads and the Sea Bass and the whole fish bream - and shared a divine desert. We could hear each other talk, which is an anomaly these days in Austin restaurants. This the weight staff was incredibly attentive, the food came out in a timely fashion, and overall we had a wonderful experience in a beautiful restaurant.

   We had an incredible time at Yama’s. The service was incredible, and the food was delicious! I was pleasantly surprised by everything, including the drinks! It’s not downtown, but definitely worth the drive!
