Yia Yia's Euro Bistro - Overland ParkAnniversary DinnerYa Ya's was chosen for our Anniversary dinner with friends because of their consistent excellence.
Two disturbing factors caused my rating to drop considerably...
Although they knew it was our anniversary, they made no mention of it and made no effort to make the occassion special.
Also, and more importantly, they were out of three menu items! Daily specials, maybe...but regular menu items? This was a 6:30 reservation on a Sunday night and whenever an establishment runs out of an item that early in the evening it does not bode well.5/19/2013 12:00:00 AMExcellentThe restaurant was excellent in every way. The food was good and the service even better. It is on the expensive side. Appetizers should NOT cost as much as the meal.
It is reasonably priced on sandwiches, salads, and pasta. Meals were (with fish or meat) 20 to 30 dollars which was too high for what they were. I would have to try them but it is doubtful they are worth that.
I have eaten there several times over the years and never had poor quality or service. It is consistently an enjoyable experience.5/18/2013 12:00:00 AMExcellent Food AND ServiceThis is one of those restaurants that offeres excellent food and top notch service without the extremely high prices. The food is not cheep but it is a good value considering the quality what you would have to pay at other restaurants that are the same caliber. i have been a custoemr for several years and I highly recommend it. Try the crab cakes or the gnochi.5/17/2013 12:00:00 AMDelighted to see you haveDelighted to see you have the pappardelle whole wheat pasta back on your menu. We love it and we'll be coming there tonight to enjoy it.

My mom and I make up excuses to leave the men behind and steal a girls lunch out, or take guys in tow for dinner. I recommend to everyone who hasn't been to your delicious establishment.5/11/2013 12:00:00 AMFriendly and TastyWe were given a comfortable booth that made talking to each other very easy. No one was isolated on one end of the table. The soup and sandwich or salad choice was a bargain as well as good. We were greeted warmly and sent off warmly. We will continue having meetings and lunches at YiaYia's.5/7/2013 12:00:00 AMWe found a new favorite placeWe found a new favorite place with yia yias, the food was excelent and our waiter Will was fun and fantastic!
