The food, the service, all of it was top tier. Our hostess, our server and our busser were all kind, friendly and knowledgeable. Food wise we had the prosciutto + burrata appetizer which was so delicious and fresh. For dinner my girlfriend had the pappardelle and I had the veal parmigiana. Both were so delicious. Will be back.

Generic urban atmosphere. Waited over an hour for our simple brunch order that never did show up. We finally just left after wasting our time

I truly wanted to love this experience, and while there were moments of excellence, the evening ultimately fell short of expectations given the price point.
We arrived for our 8:00 pm reservation and were seated about 20 minutes late. Once seated, service moved extremely slowlyâour first course did not arrive until nearly 1 hour and 20 minutes later. We were told this delay was due to my gluten-free accommodation, despite having called ahead to notify the restaurant, which felt disappointing and avoidable.
The five-course tasting for two, including a bottle of wine, totaled $537, yet we left hungry. My gluten-free courses, in particular, felt sparse; the only protein provided was a very small piece of wild boar, which was underwhelming in both portion and impact.
That said, the remaining courses were beautifully executedârefined, thoughtfully composed, and clearly the work of a talented chef.
There were also accuracy and communication issues. We were served a 2021 bottle of wine when the menu listed 2019 and were told afterward that the menu dates were incorrect. Gratuity was initially added post-tax, which felt unusual; however, our server acknowledged the issue and promptly corrected it.
Our server was attentive and kind throughout the evening, and the staff did attempt to make amends with complimentary items, which was appreciated. Unfortunately, the dessert freebie provided was not gluten-free, so I was unable to enjoy it.
One particularly uncomfortable moment occurred in the restroom. Due to unclear or poorly marked signage, I walked into the womenâs restroom while a man was using the restroom inside with the door open. While this was likely unintentional and not the fault of any individual, it was awkward and avoidable, and detracted from the sense of care and polish one expects in a fine-dining environment.
Overall, three stars feels fair. Many of these critiques are rooted in the price point, and at this level I simply expected a more seamless, elevated experience.

Great food, bad service. We went for lunch with 2 people and both ordered sandwiches. The sandwiches were great, but took probably 30 minutes to come out. We also ordered dessert which took another 25 minutes to come out. Our waitress was generally not very attentive and took 10 minutes to just bring out the check. We will not be back.

I had high hopes for Yolan. The atmosphere was nice, however both dinner and breakfast took an unbelievably long time. Between the wait for our table and the service, after being seated, breakfast took two hours. Dinner was blamed on a WiFi outage, which I understand, but then breakfast was no different. Hopefully they can improve on this. The food was not up to expectations and I think this was also due to them not being able to keep up.

Our server was snotty. I can feel the judgment coz we didnt order the 5 course meal. We ordered 1 appetizer, my friend ordered pasta and i ordered steak. We both ordered alcoholic drinks. Thatâs it. When the waiter served the entree, his whole attitude change. More friendly etc. The check came and he ask if we will pay by card or charge to our room. I said card and also hand him the valet parking pass to validate (meaning we dont have a room in the hotel). He went to the other server and from what i can see it seems like the other server told him by mistake that we are guests in the hotel. Hence the change in the attitude from snotty to friendly. For the food- steak was good. Appetizer not so much. Pasta was overcooked.

I never write reviews but here we are. Christmas Eve chaos. I surmise they didnât sell enough of the fixed price holiday menu so they opened up reservations to ala carte guest. I suspect this led to a disjointed kitchen. Communication among wait staff was lacking from the jump, our assigned server had the personality of an aloe plant. The kitchen timing was terrible, it took 3.5 hours to get through the 7 course tasting menu, at one point we waited over 40 minutes and then an hour between courses. We got a cursory visit from manger at one point, but no real attempt to change the tenor of the experience. We asked if we could get our child her food so she wouldnât have to wait and got a snappy âitâll be out with the next courseâ from our server. We asked for a wine recommendation and the sommelier just came and poured us a bottle with no choices. It was a French wine and we asked for Italian. Oh well. The server came and didnât even know which wine we were drinking and almost refilled us with the wrong wine. Yikes.
The food was mostly very good. Oyster was a repeat from previous years and the linguine was waaaay over salted. Risotto was a little firm but delicious. Monkfish awesome, amberjack awesome. Dessert was inventive and delicious.
Definitely a rough experience this time around, but we were never unruly and didnât make an issue of it. I never want anything comped but very surprised they didnât offer any sort of concession for the embarrassing performance. Still tipped well because itâs Christmas and anyone can have a bad day. Not sure we will join them on Christmas Eve again.
A hotel (The Joseph) restaurante worthy of Michelin mention, with a high ceiling dining room and bar, and easy to get into. It is a full service, full bar, excellent wine list dining experience or Ă la carte. The Carne Cruda AllâAbese has a distinctive relish tint. The Spaghetti AllĂĄ Chitarra has the lightest cream sauce. The Linguine AllâAtriciana has just a touch of smoke. Validated parking, but a difficult to find entrance off the alley.

We had to wait for more than an hour to get our entree. Got so tired . Not the experience we have at a fine dining. Of course they did not charge us for one entree. Still it left somewhat of a bad experience. Food was amazing

Yolan is not what it once was when it first opened. The service was insanely slow. The people who wormed there were very kind and good - when we saw them. The food was okay but the spaghetti was downright inedible. So gross! Very just goopy and so overloaded with cream any flavor was lost. They comped our pastas because they took insanely long to come out - which was generous (we didn't ask for that). But I took a client there from CA expecting a wow factor that never came. Won't go back, sadly.
