YAYA is a must-visit for anyone in Miami! The coastal ambiance, chic decor, and waterfront views create the perfect setting for a memorable dining experience. The live music was a standout feature, with beautiful violin sounds taking our experience to a whole new level! The menu was filled with fresh, flavorful dishes that were as visually stunning as they were delicious. Our server, Cash, was absolutely wonderful—attentive, friendly, and full of great recommendations that made our visit even more special. For amazing food, excellent service, and a unique atmosphere enhanced by live music, YAYA is the perfect spot. Highly recommend!

Me and my boyfriend had an amazing dining experience here. The hostess was so friendly - she offered me a shawl in case I got cold which was such a cute gesture. Our waiter, I can’t remember his name :( (he had glasses & a beard) was very personable and gave us great recommendations. He was super attentive. Food came out in great timing, and the aesthetic is beautiful. Five stars - willing to come back next time we’re in Miami.

I came here for dinner and ate the sea bass it was amazing and fresh. The cauliflower and the asparagus as sides. I really love the view here and it’s similar to a lot of the higher end miami restaurants without the overcrowding of it. They also have a great happy hour ! Totally recommend

Yaya is an absolute gem, especially for dessert lovers – the cheesecake baklava deserves an award! I’d rate it a solid 9.4 for its unique flavor and texture. The hummus is also top-tier, paired with soft, doughy, and crisp edges pita that’s truly memorable. Top hummus in Miami. Service was excellent, a full 10/10. My group arrived late, and the staff helped us right away. Kelly, the bartender outside, went above and beyond, accommodating us in a comfortable lounge area where we could relax, have a couple of drinks, and catch up. It was perfect for a group setting. The music was just right, loud enough to enjoy but soft enough to easily hold a conversation. Though I didn’t get the chance to try the lobster risotto this time, I’ve heard great things and can’t wait to come back and finally have it. Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for a mix of great food, ambiance, and service!

The menu is a Mediterranean lover’s dream. Every bite felt thoughtfully crafted, showcasing bold, fresh ingredients and timeless coastal influences. I absolutely loved all mezes, greek salad and octopus we ordered with my friend. And baklava cheesecake was amazing, you don’t see it often.

We’ve been in many places on the river and all over Miami and let me tell you that the food here is WAY better than these other places. The atmosphere here at Yaya is inviting, service is excellent. We are lucky to have this hidden gem right in our backyard in North Bay Village. If you have a boat, this is totally recommended!! Great experience!!!

Amazing bay view The server (C) was very knowledgeable and courteous. We loved the branzino filet and the sea scallops aguachille (so delicate). The hamachi crudo was so little portion we had to cancel and order something else on the menu. The manager (R) was great and followed up in a timely manner. It is not a cheap lunch (70/pp without alcohol) but the atmosphere feels like the Mediterranean.

Valet parking is 15, which is fairly standard. The ambiance is truly beautiful, with careful attention to detail that creates a cozy and inviting atmosphere. The patio with its stunning sea view is absolutely priceless. As for the food, we tried the burger pita, which was incredibly delicious. The Fatoush salad was a standout, offering a delightful mix of flavors with pomegranate and mint. The truffle French fries? Simply out of this world! Our waitress, Larissa, was very helpful and kind, making the experience even better. It’s a bit of a hidden gem, so I recommend adding a sign outside for easier discovery. Highly recommended!
