Yatenga Bistro - New York

A very nice atmosphere, great food and well made drinks (I had the frozen Pina Colada and the frozen Margarita...both were so good, but the Margarita was my favorite when I had to choose one to order all night...$6 per hour). Our server was wonderful and always came back with a smile. She even gave us suggestions when we were torn between the court to order. My friend chose one of the specials of the day. Crab cake with spinach, wild rice and quinoa. She enjoyed the crabcakes and told me to try. They were delicious. She said she didn't really care about spinach, wild rice and quinoa mix. She said the court could have been better strangled. She said she'd get the crab cake again, but with another supplement. I ordered the homemade nachos. It was a large, super filling portion and really good (although I would rather have come with black beans instead of pinto beans). The nachos were loaded with grilled chicken, pinto beans, guacamole, acid cream, pico de gallo, Cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese. So many ways to choose from here and we want back to try them. It is also worth noting that they have a daily happy hour by 8:00, a rarity these days, considering that most happy hours end at 6:00 or 7:00.

Our server was wonderful and always came back to us with a smile. She even gave us suggestions when we were torn between which dish to order. My friend decided on one of the specials of the day. Crab cakes with spinach, wild rice and quinoa. She really enjoyed the crab cakes and told me to try some. They were delicious. She said she didn't really care for the spinach, wild rice and quinoa mix. She said the dish could've been seasoned better. She said she would get the crab cakes again but with a different side dish. I ordered the homemade nachos. It was a large, super filling portion and really good (although I would have rather it come with black beans instead of pinto beans). The nachos were fully loaded with grilled chicken, pinto beans, guacamole, sour cream, pico de gallo, cheddar and monterey jack cheese.So many options to choose from here and we plan to return to try them. It's also worth mentioning that they have a daily Happy Hour until 8pm, a rarity these days considering most happy hours end at 6 or 7 pm.

Food was so good! Went to a retirement party and I felt bad for the staff. They were running all over the place and they still maintained service that was stellar. This is a place to check out. Not a crazy drink selection but the food makes up for that. Give it a try. I don't think you will be disappointed.

The food and the service was good, albeit the wait time was pretty long despite the restaurant not being busy. However, they served us an expired Diet Coke (they said they didn’t have any, so I said it was okay I didn’t need it, but it was brought out anyway)I informed them that it was expired but they still charged us $3 ??‍

I love Yatenga! The chef gambas is my go to dish. I highly recommend for either drinks or food!
