We've been vacationing in Ocean City, NJ for years and had no idea this place existed. We stumbled upon it on our first night of our week-long vacation stay and went back twice more it was so good! On our first night, we had takeout. We had quite a large group, but all of our meals were correct and tasty. We had items from gyros, Philly cheesesteak, chicken quesadilla, chicken salad wrap and every person enjoyed their meals. We dined in on our other two visits. Once for a dinner outside and once for a lunch inside. Hostess seemed a bit disorganized and frazzled, but other than that, service was great and food was wonderful. We will be returning for our vacation next year and hope to eat here again. It's a great atmosphere, easy parking, kid friendly and large portions for a decent price. We highly recommend the coconut shrimp dinner appetizer and the gyros. read more

Loved it!! My whole family enjoyed their meals. We placed a pickup order, and everything was quick and seamless. Although we were only inside a couple minutes, the staff were very friendly and welcoming. My mom and I adore Greek and Mediterranean food, so we were super excited to try this place. I ordered the chicken souvlaki platter and it was so delicious. The chicken was really tender and flavorful, and the portion size was great. The Greek side salad was honestly one of the best I have had, the feta on top was generous and delicious, and the side pitas tied it all together nicely. My mom played kept it classic with the Greek salad, which she praised, and my dad got the classic cheeseburger and also loved it. Definitely excited to come back and try more! read more

Yianni's Cafe - Chicken Souvlaki Platter (Takeout) -- Amazing!! - Greek Near Me - Ocean City, New Jersey

My child was refused a kids meal and we were told that it was only for children 12 and under and for my meal I got the crispy chicken sandwich and it was just a frozen Tyson patty that was warm with a massive bun. And each refill I got on my iced tea was extra. This was not the waitresses fault but if you could pick a different restaurant, I would. read more

The chicken souvlaki platter is one of my favorite meals to get while on vacation. I could easily eat it every day. I do feel the price of the meal has gone up and it is a bit expensive. I got mine to go so I can't speak on the service or ambiance but the food is always good. read more

Yianni's was our very first stop after a long day of traveling. We were pleased to have a moment of rest. It was pretty crowded when we walked in around 12:30 on a Saturday, but we were still seated right away. Thankfully, they have a number of seats outdoors as well. It's a beautiful space! We especially liked the interior design of the ocean themed mirrors, super cute. It's an expansive and honestly a little bit of an overwhelming menu. There's a mix of Greek food and traditional "American" breakfasts, lunches, and dinners . My friend and I split an avocado toast ($16) which came with a side of fruit. The avocado toast was great! It was actually super simple, but it was a huge portion and we were happy we ended up sharing it. The fruit was okay, not really the best quality, but kind of what you'd expect at a diner. Overall, a good and fulfilling meal, but nothing that blew us away. The service was good. Our waitress was attentive and kind and checked in on us a few times. Ultimately, we're happy we stopped here! It's also right near a number of shops in the area so we were able to transition right into shopping and strolling post-meal. read more

Stopped in for a late lunch after a day of holiday shopping. The French onion soup is one of the best around. Not too salty, plenty of cheese and topped with fried onions - perfect way to take the chill away. The wrap was also good. Service was friendly, food came fast and the place was clean and decorated nicely. read more

I went here for breakfast after a little weekend trip. The food was excellent! For $18 dollars, I was able to get this large spread of food! I ordered the eggs over-easy, and they were cooked perfectly. The French toast was crispy yet fluffy. The service was great! I was in and out in 30 minutes or so. I'll definitely be back! Lots of food for the price! read more

Yianni's Cafe - Yianni's Favorite - Greek Near Me - Ocean City, New Jersey

Walked by a million times over the years and finally stopped by. I may have found my new favorite spot. Inside is clean and well appointed. Lots of staff with great service. Our table was very happy with their choices. The French onion soup and veggie omelette got rave reviews. Stuffed French toast got devoured. I picked the gyro which came on a pillowy pita with lots of gyro meat, tzatziki sauce, lettuce and tomato. Loved it. Not a fan of coated fries but it was hot and fresh. I'll be happy to return. Portions are big and meals are good value. Seems to be popular since there were plenty of people waiting to be seated. read more

My go-to when in Ocean City. The food is always fresh with generous portions-- and there's something for everyone. Casual, clean, comfortable ambiance. And I've always had excellent, friendly service. Today's server was extraordinary--thank you Jenna! read more

Food was soooo good! Waitress was super nice and helpful. Nice little area in Ocean City. Must go!

We absolutely love Yianni's. We discovered it the last time we went to Ocean City and have been regular customers every time we visit. Last week we went three times! Food is fresh, portions are large, and flavors are good. I think my favorite thing on the menu are the chicken and beef/lamb gyros. We have also had multiple wraps and salads, which were great. Service is excellent, food is served quickly, even when they're busy. Ambience is chill, relaxed. Perfect place to have breakfast or come to for lunch/brunch while on the beach. We've also taken away and eaten at home, and the portion size and quality of food is the same. read more

I've been going to Yianni's in OC for years. Always consistently great. Great food and great service. My fave is Greek pikalia for two.

Waitress as very good and attentive. Food was delicious- buffalo chicken wrap, turkey club, and steak and cheese quesadillas. Kids meals were a little small but good. Definitely will go again. read more

I have not been to Yianni's in a while, but I stopped in here after a beach day with my dad. We were seated right away in the early evening on a Sunday night. We sat inside, but there is plenty of outdoor seating as well. Recently, I have been loving Greek food so I knew I had to give Yianni's another try. As always the complimentary pita and hummus was very good. The pita is so soft! I ordered the Shrimp Kebab. Everything was very tasty and the salad it came with was super fresh. In comparison to other Greek restaurants I have tried, Yianni's is not at the top of the list. However, it is definitely one of the better restaurants in Ocean City and I would definitely come back when in the area! read more

Still delicious and the service was excellent. Always a wait but so worth it! Fresh food that doesn't break the bank.

Always fresh food and always well prepared. If only they had a BYOB or a liquor license, but that's Ocean City.

Great dinner location with helpful staff and good food! Lots of gluten free options and staff was careful about a gluten sensitivity in our party. They were able to accommodate our party of 10 and 2 little ones so that was great! read more

The food was really good, as well as the general atmosphere but the service, however, was awful. The server was incredibly rude to me and my friend, right off the bat. We were polite and even complimented her but she continued to have an attitude. By the end of the meal, we realized we never got our french fries but we decided to not wait for them and asked someone at the quick service counter to remove them from our bill. Keep in mind, this is after we waited for our server to pass by our table to check up but she never did. After our server was told that she forgot our fries, she came back to our table and proceeded to tell me and my friend, in a very condescending tone, "You should've told me when I asked if everything was okay" and then proceeded to stare at me, without giving my friend a second glance. After a moment, I said, "We forgot" and she walked away with an attitude. I feel it was entirely unnecessary for her to condemn us for her forgetting our fries when it is her job to bring us our food. In the end, the fries were taken off the bill so there wasn't an issue with that. Everyone who worked here was very kind, except for that woman. As long as you don't get our server you should have a lovely experience! read more

This sandwich was thick and packed with lox, cream cheese, and onion (i honestly forget what else) but it was yummy and i was very satisfied eating it on the beach! The staff were very nice and from what I saw the restaurant would be very cute to dine in! read more

Have gone to Yianni's so many times over the last few summers and was honestly shocked I'd never left a review -- this place is so good and delivers every single time without fail. I've had the gyro omelette, crab cake Benedict, shore omelette, various wraps, breakfast sandwiches, bagels, salads, everything is great. Such a large menu, things remain high quality, and you can come for any meal. The servers are always nice, there's a quick wait with organized seating process, good outdoor or indoor vibes, convenient location on Asbury. We go to Yianni's a ton and I expect that to continue! 5 stars read more
