    When checking in it was raining we had requested to sit outside, but we were given a table inside and I wanted to sit on the patio. I didn’t think that the two girls at the front doing the seating were very helpful as a matter fact I think they were rude. They said that there were no open tables on the patio so I finished my food inside and a lot of the tables on the patio were never used.

    Grace was great. My moms 62nd birthday was memorable. All food was well received by my family. My steak was great all the drinks were awesome. It was so quiet in the restaurant it felt like we had the place to ourselves weather certainly played a factor. But the team around was still on top of us and the he manager even swung by and touched the table. All positives will certainly be back soon hopefully!

    This was my first time going to Yot, i’ve heard so much abt it and it didn’t disappoint! The hostess was very sweet and accommodating as it was raining and i had reserved a seat at the deck area. our server was so attentive and kind, the ambiance was amazing and the live singer really set the vibe too. we of course had to try the fish dip which was really good! the “chips” threw me off a bit but still good nonetheless. I ordered the miso salmon blackened and it came out exactly how i wanted! my partner ordered the curry chicken and it was definitely an “attempt” at curry chicken, not bad but not the best thing on their menu. all in all, a great place for a date night!

    We eat at YOT often and it is always fun! We enjoy the bar area mostly, but the music is extremely loud no matter where you are sitting. The outside bar and eating area are on the dock which means you are on the water! It’s perfect. Service is always good.

    Although I love YOT our most recent experience was one that could of made it the last. The restaurant had minimal tables but more staff than needed. At one point there was 5 staff members standing together talking while our waitress was no where in site.

    So the service is great but NOT the food. The food is bland. Someone who is of color CANT be in that kitchen. The food lacks seasoning and flavor

    We were seated in the back room, hidden away, even though we had a reservation. It was right next to kitchen and there was nobody else sitting there the entire time, and there was a lot of room in the main inside area when we walked in, lol. Felt like they wanted to hide us! Nevertheless, the service, drinks and food were good.
