"After seeing BLOGTOs review on their french toast, it became on my to go list!\nShowing up on a Sunday morning around noon, I was able to snag the last table (although they do take reservations which is rare for a brunch place on the east end ).\nI was treated by a man in a suit and tie... He was probably one of the owners but I think the place is a mom and pop shop, all from the same fam. Their service could be described as overly attentive because we were asked the same questions by different people multiple times. Some people might find it annoying but on this chill Sunday, I thought it was really caring.\n\nWhile I really wanted the French toast, I was also craving something savoury as well, so my friend and I shared an order of the avocado benedict. All dishes range between $10-$15 and there is a side board with $5 dishes. They also have $5 glasses of wine and organic beer that really can't be beat.\n\nOur food was presented really nicely.. As far as brunch gets. The egg yolks were bright and enormous, sitting on bed of spinach, potatoes, and avocado. Maybe I read wrong but I didn't realize that potatoes were part of the dish, given that tortilla chips was included as an accompaniment. I did find that the potatoes were too much, and not enough avocado... I also found very little spinach, but I appreciate the inventiveness in the overall composition.\n\nOur French toast dish had been sitting for some time and the waitress offered to reheat it for us because it had gooey ricotta cheese stuffed inside. We we so greatful that she checked on us because it made all the difference. The ricotta was a creamy with lemon flavour, but I didn't find it to be overly heavy. It actually reminded me to Chinese style French toast, with the giant thick toast, but with a western twist. I would recommend everyone to try this once if they visit YAYA.\n\nDespite staying almost 3 hours and having waves of people come in, and waiting for a seat, we were never rushed out.\n\nNo doubt that this is a lace to check out...minus the crazy east side line ups, with great food and service.\nKeep it up"^^ .
