“Angie’s is amazing! I highly recommend!! The food was delicious and the servers were kind! It did take a while for our food to be ready and we had to wait to be seated, but it was worth it. I would return!”

“Have been there twice and have enjoyed my experience both times. Tried the Braised Beef Sandwich ( think French Dip) and the drip burger. Both cooked to perfection and delicious. The fries are great!! Hubby had the Vinny ( pork with an egg) and said it was delicious. Pirogies are good but if you’re not big on onion ask for that on the side. The staff is super friendly and remember if there’s a line they’re cooking food to order. They take your order and offer drinks while you wait. Nice bar area for your daily vino or drink of the day. We never had to wait in line long, definately need to make the trip. Bonus is that they’re open Monday and Tuesday which is awesome because so Many places are closed on the island. Kudos for offering a great menu with good food! See you next week!!????”

“Came in for a quick dinner on 6/19/25, they were absolutely slammed. About 4 or 5 boys behind the counter just absolutely grinding the line and the call in/onlines. Despite the work load, they were all super friendly and cheerful. Each one said something personalized or cheerful to me and smiled or cracked a joke. While I sat here eating until about 830, 30 mins before close, another big rush hit. Not one sigh or bad word about the customers or work load. I dont know who owns this franchise or whos training these young men, but theyre killing it. Wish my home JM was this good. Big compliments to the boys, they killed it tonight.”

“The 2 for 1 ribeye meal including salad bar was great! Always fresh salad bar and the ribeye was excellent as well as the service!”

“I mistakenly ordered my food too early in the mobile app. I called the store and asked if I could push back the time of pickup and they had already made the order (usually this is a great thing lol). Aaron was very helpful in offering to make another sandwich to better align with the pickup time.

Thank you for taking good care of your customers Aaron!”

“the food is good especially the fries”

“Today was my first time ever trying burrito shak, and Hannah was the one who took my order and made my food and she was so kind, pleasant and patient. She has GREAT customer service skills. These days that kind of customer service is hard to come by, but I was glad for my first time at burrito shak, I got to experience it. Keep being great Hannah! Your customer service and the quality of my food is the reason I will be back.”

“Just a quick message to let you know how much we appreciate your amazing business. Not sure HOW you do it, but EVERY..SINGLE..STAFF MEMBER is friendly, welcoming and kind. They somehow compartmentalize the hectic pace of their job as well as the non-stop stream of customers (and the heat!) to serve all of us with a smile!! We appreciate you all! Thanks for an amazing dinner tonight & for all you do. Have a great weekend 😊”

“I've only eaten here twice, but I promise I will become a fixture. Just a quaint little place, family owned 41 years, downtown near the water. A welcome respite from all the cookie cutter chain dumps where you're lucky to receive either good service OR good food. Yanas has both, everything you would expect from local folks that care.. You can sense the positive and warm energy immediately, and I'd be remiss if I didn't mention waitress Holly, who possesses those qualities in abundance. Kudos”

“I just had a savory croissant, pepperoni and cheese that was amazing, lol. Really really really good.”

“Our server, Amanda, was amazing. We had several different dietary restrictions in our party, and Amanda ensured that everyone had meals that met their dietary needs. The food was very good, the atmosphere welcoming and the service was exceptional.”

“Some of the most flavorful, exciting combinations you’ll find. Try the street corn, jerk meatballs, and anything on the brunch menu. The OJ is also fresh-squeezed, which makes all the difference.”

“Amazing Place, amazing Food, amazing people! Try the pappy sauce! This May just be our new bbq go to!! Finding good bbq plus the best atmosphere & most friendly people is hard anymore, this place is the best! If you are around this area, stop & check it out! I’d give more stars if I could.”

“Friendly, cordial, & welcoming staff but not once have the owners ever acknowledged my presence with even a "hello."”

“Outstanding! Loaded Home Fries for Super Bowl Sunday Brunch and no waiting to be seated. We received immediate attention by 1st day trainee Kayvan, always with a persistent and infectious smile and her attentive Trainer - Ashley A. Gaffer's is to be commended for their outstanding food and gracious waitress staff! CJ Gorius - Google Guide”
