"Cafe Yaya is always the perfect spot. Their matcha + Labneh plate is my go to. New fall menu is also to die for. Such an amazing place for a group brunch or solo morning. Can’t recommend it more!!!"

"Hidden gem in the heart of SoHo! Food is top quality and atmosphere is cozy and quaint. Highly recommend for a lowkey lunch in the area, can’t go wrong. Had the tuna melt which comes with potato stix and cornichons, and delicious chamomile tea with honey."

"I’ve been to Cafe Yaya a few times now, and my experience has been fairly consistent. It’s a nice neighborhood cafe with a relaxed vibe, and the coffee is reliably good. The food is fresh and well prepared, and it’s an easy place to stop in when you want something simple and casual. That said, it can feel hit or miss. The menu isn’t very large, and certain items are often unavailable depending on the time of day. Seating can also be tight when it’s busy, which makes it harder to stay for long. Service has always been polite, though sometimes a little slow. Overall, it’s a solid local spot, just not one I’d go out of my way for."

"SO GOOD!!!! Tuna melt is a must. Definitely try one of the salads. finish the meal off either with the sundae or cheesecake After we sat down, the owner approached us to say hello, which added to the warm and friendly ambience of the cafe. Great lighting and music choices. The service is excellent Best new spot in town"

"Absolutely loved this place! The food was incredibly delicious — everything was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. I especially loved Tuna melt and canoise salad! The staff were super friendly, attentive, and made us feel really welcome from the moment we walked in. The atmosphere was cozy and stylish. They also started to serve breakfast-definitely on the to do list next time. Highly recommend this restaurant — can’t wait to come back!"
