I wanted to try some type of ethnic/different food while I was in Carmel/the surrounding area, and I came across Yats. Read some reviews and looked at some pictures, and it sounded and looked delicious and inexpensive yet worthwhile. I went there, explaining how I was an out-of-towner and the two guys that were working told me their suggestions, how authentic the food is, etc...and they even gave me extra bread on the house! Very good hospitality. I ended up ordering the 1/2 and 1/2 plate: The Chili Cheese and crawfish Étouffée and the Drunken Chicken. The restaurant was fairly empty since I went in between lunch and dinner time, but the vibes were chill and anyone seemed welcomed there. I would go back! read more
