Great place to dine with friends and family or even alone (I saw a couple of people doing so). The food and service was excellent The only negative thing is that the establishment charges credit card fees. I have never seen this before so I questioned it. I was told, no charges if paid with cash. The restaurant should warn patrons of this particular policy before reservations or place a warning in a place visible for customers so it is not a sticker shock when the bill comes. Other than that, I recommend this place.

The food was outstanding. Delicious Latin cuisine. Unfortunately the service was very slow. And since we were sitting in their street shed and it was very cold, that made it worse.

Eaten here four previous times. Very good food, in general. Excellent pernil and paella. Prices have increased somewhat so, with tip and drinks, it came to $300 for four of us. My only ‘complaint’ was my vodka martini which should have been a full glass rather than two-thirds. This is a wonderful addition to Riverdale dining with a Latin flavor.

This place is great. Only bad experience, my wife and I waited nearly an hour for appetizers. Food takes long but it’s all worth it once you taste it.

Nyc still has a mask mandate and vaccine check. This restaurant did not enforce mask nor did they check vaccination status. Did not feel safe there.

It was my first time in Yukka Bistro and I loved it. I went to see Zeo Munoz, he is amazing...my boyfriend and I were celebrating our 6 years anniversary and the ambiance was both energetic and romantic. Really nice spot to spend a Saturday night.

At my arrival to Yukka for my 11:30am reservation, the manager told me they were closed until 12pm and that he was just about to call me...poor business practice! he should have called me the day before!!! Went to Madison's next door which was GREAT! I do believe in second chances and may give them another chance to redeem themselves...we'll see.

Food was absolutely delicious but for New Year’s their pre-fix menu was so bad, we had to insist for options from their regular menu. Also the damn DJ was blasting the music so incredibly loud, we couldn’t hear each other.

The premises is not suitable for a disco music jockey and the music genre is totally out of place. It is medically certified; the background music during a meal should be smooth and low toned. Service was slow and not amicable, but I commend the chef because the taste and flavors in the food were delectable
