Yiayia's Greek Kitchen - Ridgeland

As a fan of Mediterranean cuisine, I entered the restaurant with high expectations, and I must say, the fact that they sell their own olive oil at the counter was a promising sign right from the start. Everything was bursting with flavor and felt healthy, evident from both the aromas and the tastes. I highly recommend the eggplant rollatini, while my wife enjoyed the cabbage rolls. To be completely honest, I was experiencing some stomach discomfort before dinner, but after my meal, I felt refreshed, and the pain completely disappeared, almost as if my body recognized the goodness of the food! Thank you very much; we will definitely be back!

My wife and I are quite discerning when it comes to food, but this restaurant truly impressed us! Everything was outstanding—from the delicious dishes to the inviting atmosphere and attentive service. Our waitress and the owner welcomed us warmly, and we shared some good laughs. The owner, who also prepared our meals, came out to explain the cooking process, which added to the cozy ambiance. This is truly authentic Greek cuisine! We will definitely return and highly recommend this place to anyone who appreciates great food!

Papou proudly showed me an award from the President of Greece, recognizing his efforts to bring authentic Greek cuisine to the United States. The President was so impressed by YiaYia's cooking that he honored them with this prestigious award. It was amazing! We chatted about life and the essence of hospitality, and he even offered me some excellent marriage advice. Connecting with this wise and generous man was a wonderful experience. The food is exceptional as well! You can truly taste the love that YiaYia puts into her cooking. If I ever find myself within 100 miles of this place again, I will definitely make a point to visit.

First time at YiaYia?s for lunch and it was great. The restaurant had a sweet and homey atmosphere. I was greeted by the owners from the kitchen which I absolutely loved. I will definitely patronize this business again. The amount of food I received wasvery reasonable for what I paid as well.
