Excellent Greek cuisine and fabulous lunch time server.

Very well made, yummy Greek food. The calamari is the legit kind, with the little squids fried up to a delicious crisp. Their tzatziki is on point, tastes like it's made in-house. Was super happy with the number of appetizers they offer. The only part I wish had a bit more flavor was the rice.

Very enjoyable lunch. My wife and I shared the chicken souvlaki dinner plate. The extra charge for a second plate
provided a perfect sized lunch for the two of us. The marinade was excellent. Good portions and fast service.

Had the calamari and hummus dip with pita. The hummus was so flavourful, pita’s were warm. I would buy that hummus by the tub. The calamari was lightly breaded and fresh. Perfection. So tasty. Support local. I’m coming back for more.

Amazing shrimp and scallop souvlaki, garlic prawns, Greek salad, and Ekmek to top things off. Dinner was wonderful. Our server was super personable and definitely turned a last minute dinner choice into an enjoyable evening. Hats off to Kamal!

This place is the real deal! Best gyro and hummus in town ! You will not walk away hungry . Generous portions, reasonably priced and great value for what you get. Very friendly service. They were also very accommodating to food allergies and were able to offer substitutes no problem. A very good range of vegetarian options too. The interior decor is thought out and provides a mini escape to Greece, definitely worth dining in ! Had great takeaway experiences too.

Excellent service, the host was super friendly and accommodating. The food was amazing, compliments to chef Alfred. Oh you have to try the jalapeno tequila drink, don't remember the name but it was pretty good!

Really nice ,friendly and helpful staff on the phone when ordering take out, and at pick up. The food was so yum a hour later and warmed up at the time we got to enjoy supper.

With a full vegan menu (presented alongside the other menus 😍), generous portion sizes and incredibly friendly service, I have nothing but good things to say about my visit to Yiamas! I tried the hummus, moussaka and baklava 🤌🏻 Updated from previous review on 2025-02-10
