About the restaurant

YAYA is a term of endearment for grandmothers all across Mediterranean and Latin American cultures. Originating in Greece, the name evokes a sense of home, comfort, and generational passed-down wisdom and traditions – like cuisine.

YAYA connects Chileno Bay’s Latin American DNA with a European culinary heritage– Greece, Italy, Spain, and Portugal all come through in the flavor profiles represented in this new epicurean experience, making YAYAs everywhere proud.

The equivalent of a comforting embrace, the familiar yet elevated culinary ethos at YAYA is drawn from the flavours of home. An active, open hearth kitchen takes center stage at this indoor/outdoor dining room, where fresh ingredients and artisanal preparation become the main forms of expression in Chef Eli Godinez's seasonal menus.

Reconnect with loved ones through the tradition of sharing family-style dishes in an intimate, relaxing environment at the geographical heart of Chileno Bay Resort.<

We very much enjoyed our experience here! The staff were fantastic, attentive, and extremely polite. The food was delicious and with the right portion size, and great cocktails too - the one we had was a recommendation of our server and it was just the right mix. We will definitely be back next time we are in Cabo.

The food and service was overall good. It is very expensive, but the steaks were phenomenal. The mashed potatoes had a bit too much butter or cream on them, and the Brussels sprouts were not cooked enough. The corn was not what we expected and so we sent it back. The noise level was over the top. Entirely too loud in there.

Amazing steak, we ordered a tomahawk and a ny steak to start, the tomahawk was good, the ny steak was from heaven, not sure how else to describe it, we ended up ordering a second one for dessert. Service was great, price point is not the cheapest, but if that’s not a barrier, I highly recommend it.

Stopped by to catch the dolphins game with friends. We had some of our favorites- the wedge and meatballs to start then the NY strip and fried chicken (so good!). Added bonus were the hot wings they had on special for Thursday night football - loved the spice. Apple cake and cheese cake for dessert were both excellent. Thanks Carlos for the great service!
