Group of three for birthday dinner before a show at Princess theatre. Everything we had was fresh and tasty and just right. We recommend the sausage, cheese balls Greek salad, meatballs and for dessert orange filling pita and halva ice cream combo is to die for. Will recommend and go again. Only downside for me is the noise, there was felt running along the wall but the business should consider an acoustic treatment to the ceiling too.

Yassas has an electric atmosphere with delicious food and fantastic service—everything arrived promptly and was beautifully presented. The only downside was the music being a bit too loud, making it hard to have a conversation. I was sitting in the middle and the two people either side of me couldn't hear each other! Otherwise, it was a wonderful dining experience!
