Had a wonderful experience here with food, service and ambiance. We were celebrating a birthday and ordered a bunch of different foods. Started off with the calamari, and the mixed croquettas, which were filled with bacalao and ropa vieja. Then we got seafood paella, churrasco, mar y tierra, garlic shrimp, and lobster mac. Everything was amazing, but definitely the star at this restaurant is their paella. Will definitely be coming back for more food and good vibes.
My birthday dinner was held here. Great food and drinks. Plus live music. Great night.
Delicious food and great service at Yukka! The tuna tartare was the standout—so fresh and flavorful. The empanadas were close behind, perfectly crispy and packed with filling. We also enjoyed the seafood paella, which was tasty and well-seasoned. The staff was friendly, and the restaurant was clean and welcoming. Highly recommend!
The food was absolutely amazing. I went there last week to celebrate my sister's birthday and we all had an amazing timd. I really enjoyed the churrasco and yuca fries. Their dessert platter when you order from the prefix menu was also amazing. I enjoyed the guava dessert. They make a really great coconut mojito. The staff was amazing. The ambience was beautiful, and very delicious food, and wonderful live music. It's definitely worth the trip if you're in the Roverdale area of the Bronx.
Wonderful atmosphere, Amazing beautiful and professional staff!! I tried several selections from their menu and I have to say, totally mouth watering! Lobster Mac & Cheese! The grill salmon at T-bone is perfection! Let’s not forget their chocolate lava cake! A+ to the owner’s who are so humbly attentive to all their Customers and for making sure that we all are having the best experience ever. There’s also a wonderful tasteful artistic blend of live music on weekends that is so pleasant to the soul. This place won’t disappoint and it’s a fabulous date night spot to take your loved ones.
Delicious Latin dishes and good atmosphere. There's a nice bar here but the real winner are the appetizers. It's basically tapas which I'm not a fan of but they are good portions. My wife ordered the fish croquettes, empanadas, and chorizo and I'm shrimp (in red sauce). I got the baked chicken and .ash potatoes with a side of plantains. I was so full. Will def be going back for another date night.
My husband and I went to Yukka Latin Bistro for Valentine’s Day, and we had a wonderful experience! The ambiance was warm and inviting, perfect for a special occasion. The food was delicious, with fresh flavors and well-seasoned dishes that showcased Latin cuisine beautifully.
This restaurant seems like it has great ambiance. I went in the middle of the week.. there was only one other party at the restaurant so it was kind of dead. We were a group of 8. We were seated and served immediately. Drinks were good (semi strong not too overwhelming) and they had cool drink options. Several people ordered seafood related food options (surf & turf, paella, lobster Mac). Everyone had mixed options but were mostly positive. Though a few complains about the seafood tasting a bit undercooked (paella in particular). Nevertheless it was a good time. Service was OK, can’t imagine how it would be if the restaurant was packed.
