Wow this place is seriously AMAZING! We had the American Gyro which is just with lettuce in it instead of fries and it was absolutely delicious. We are SO impressed with this place. Safe to say this is the best gyro we have ever had. On top of that the atmosphere is really nice, it’s in the middle of a neighborhood with outdoor covered seating, pet friendly and the staff was so nice and helpful. Thank you for such an awesome experience! Update, still amazing. Tried the gyro salad. So fresh, so filling. Thank you!

I believe either some of their seasoning for chicken or broth or something they use for food preparation has MSG in it. I have MSG sensitivity. Gut issues hit me about 30 minutes after eating there. The food tastes good but - wow. Won’t order anything with chicken again.

Plenty of people love this place. We wanted to as well… but I guess we had an “off day” or something. My moussaka tasted old, like it was on the last hour of the last day before it gets thrown out. My wife’s falafel was nearly burned and cooked down to the size of a marble (if we had compared to the images I’m now seeing online we would have sent it back). Our full-size greek salad had three olives on it and the tomatoes were awful and tasted like chemicals. We would much prefer to support local, but we will be returning to CAVA (national chain) for our mediterranean cravings.

First let me tell you that I came in 20 minutes before it closed for a gyro and they were still so sweet and polite. I bought my son a meatball sandwich and my son said it was good. The gyro was fresh. The veggies were crunchy and super fresh. They stuffed it with lots of meat. Generous with the meat. As i waited for my food I looked over to my left and saw amazing desserts. I asked for the New York cheese cake and it was the bomb. Omg. Super fresh. Fluffy. Delicious. The best. Prices are good. Affordable. Thank you.

We placed a large catering order for our bachelorette group to be delivered on our first night at the house. Food was delivered right on time by Billie and set up perfectly for us to enjoy a buffet style meal. We gorged ourselves on the food that night and had great leftovers to carry us through the weekend when we needed a snack. Couldn’t say enough good things about the food. We were all exclaiming how delicious it was. Billie was the sweetest to work with and we were so happy to support a local business!

Food is always excellent. The last time I went (beginning of January) ... There was 4 of us and only 2 in our group got our food. After 20 minutes I asked about the food ordered for the other 2 in our group. ... It was forgotten about, and they had to immediately make it. However, this is not a common thing to happen at the restaurant.

There is just not enough space to talk about all the wonderful things on the menu so please go try this place out!

Live in Atlanta and travel to Savannah to visit. One stop is always Yia Yia's for an American Gyro and fries! The pita bread was so fresh, filled with delicious gyro meat. Also love the pastries! When friends ask where to go in Savannah I always recommend Yia's! In fact, was recently in Vegas and was talking to folks from Savannah. they also frequent Yia Yia's! Great family owned business who care about their customers and community.

I've been going to Yia Yia's Kitchen for a long time and am a big fan of the food, service, and atmosphere. The staff is always welcoming and willing to help with any questions, especially if I can't pronounce the names of the delicious pastries. The gyros are the best in town, and if you want add a little kick ask for the feisty feta. The store is always clean and inviting and the food is served fast and delicious. It always a treat when the owner is there, he loves to chat and take care of his customers just like they were family. I would recommend Yia Yia's Kitchen to everyone.

I have recently moved into the area and as a person from Greek descent this food is the most disgusting and Un flavorful, I've ever tasted and is NOT traditional at all this is a DISGRACE for this restaurant to be owned by a "Greek family." Aside from that, the restaurant is an overall mess they have package food on some shelves that look like they've been there since the restaurant opened up, trash everywhere, the employees are rude and unhelpful, and the bathrooms are disgusting there was human fecal matter on the floor like what?? The owner is a degenerate; he condones people to be around his restaurant to make it have an even worse name that it has already gained it's such a DISGRACE that this restaurant with 4.6 stars is being awarded with good reviews, Do Better.

Dirty dirty place with bad customer services. Plus they don’t seems to care about the community. The owner doesn’t have any respect about who lives around the neighborhood. We live near Yia Yia's and are very disappointed in how they handled an event. High schoolers frequent the restaurant after school, and some stay until 5 or 6pm until parents pick them up. 3 high school teenage boys ganged up and started laughing, pointing, and calling my 6 year old names from across the street while she played in her front yard. When we approached Yia Yia's and asked that the boys not be allowed there, instead of supporting their neighbor and client who frequents their store, they ignored the request and allowed it to continue. In fact, they felt the need to support these boys and told them they could come inside if they didn't feel comfortable staying outside. Our daughter is now afraid to play in her own front yard. I ask you do not support a business who condones bullying, and puts a blind eye to it.

Ordered via UberEats. Food was decent, but they did not include silverware! (yes we checked the box online to include it). Our hotel’s front desk didn’t have any when we asked, and when we called the restaurant back they gave an insincere apology and asked us what hotel we were staying at. We gave the name, then the person on the phone responded in a tone: I’ve never heard of that place before. Too much effort for a few measly forks. Not worth it.

Dolmas as a side are really unique in flavor that I personally love. For dessert we got a chocolate dipped canoli, a chocolate baklava cheesecake and a peanut butter butter brownie cake.
