" The food at YAFO Kitchen is top-notch! I ordered the shawarma chicken with a side of mac and cheese, and both were delightful. The flavors were spot on, bringing an authentic Mediterranean taste. While the place can get busy, the staff is efficient and friendly. Even though it can be slightly pricy, I found the portion sizes to be very reasonable for the quality of food. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a satisfying meal! " (*Curated Review*)

" YAFO Kitchen has quickly become one of my go-to spots for Mediterranean food! The ambiance is lovely, with upbeat music and a friendly vibe that makes you want to linger. I love the build-your-own bowl option, and their protein choices are plentiful. I usually opt for the lamb, which I find to be incredibly tender and flavorful. I sometimes find the prices are a notch higher, but considering the quality and portion sizes, it's worth every penny. " (*Curated Review*)

" During my last visit to YAFO, I had a healthy quinoa bowl packed with toppings. While I enjoyed the freshness of the ingredients, it felt a bit on the pricey side. The service was decent, but it took longer than expected. I think the restaurant could benefit from a quicker service model. Still, the flavor was delightful, and the rest of the food looks appealing. I will probably visit again to give them another try. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a rather mixed experience at YAFO. While the food was undoubtedly flavorful and fresh, the service left a bit to be desired. The staff seemed a bit overwhelmed during lunch rush, which might explain the long wait. However, once I received my meal, the flavors made up for it. I tried the pita tacos, and they were quite tasty, albeit a little heavier than I expected. Overall, I would visit again, hoping for better service next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" On my first visit to YAFO Kitchen, I was really impressed! The restaurant had a great menu filled with Mediterranean delights, and I found the service to be quite attentive. I tried their Israeli hot chicken sandwich and it was nothing short of amazing! The flavors were bold and satisfying. The only downside was the price point seemed high for lunch, but the quality of the food justifies it. I'm already looking forward to my next visit! " (*Curated Review*)
