El Viejo Yayo Restaurant

Omg is all I can say for there Spanish breakfast!
I always get the Dominican breakfast special cheap and amazing!
Lots of food given.
Oh and the coffee spectacular!
I always order delivery never sat in the actual restaurant.
Love love that breakfast.
Have I mentioned how good the breakfast is :)

The service from Huascar was excellent, very good¡¡¡¡and the food amazing like always, i work in the cuban restaurant in the city and the food in this place is much better that other place in the city, the need much better ambience and décor ant that is only they need… thank you Huascar you are the best¡¡¡

Sadly disappointed tonight. My cubano came without the cheese melted, bread wasn’t toasted, no mustard, and mayo packets instead of having it on the sandwich. It was like a do it yourself sandwich.. And thanks for my pre-​packaged flan and was so hard my spoon could stand up in it. I will not be ordering again.

Food was great, but took about 1 ½ hours for delivery. And my order was incomplete. Waited another hour for them to bring the rest of my order and by then the food was cold. Second time this happens and it will be the last

Must be new owners went for breakfast and you think you are at a club. The music’s so loud you can’t hear what anyboby saying. That’s good for a night setting but I’m only one person and low music to me would be better. Otherwise the food was good Just the noise

Little disappointed! My second time there was super different from the first. Our waiter, awful! On his phone the whole time, not attentive and slooowww! Food took forever. My boyfriend got a steak which was 97% fat 3% meat. it was really overpriced for the amount of food. I’m kinda bummed because my first time was so great.

The steak with grilled onions was extremely salty, I will never eat at this place again

Excellent rice. Juicy chicken with yucca and red onions! I’m drooling just thinking about it! ha! Another family favorite spot. The staff are very friendly and they deliver. One side note: if you preorder be sure to check your items to make sure they have everything. Sometimes they forget something, but they always give it to you if you come back for it. They also have great bundle deals with whole chickens and other items that include a 3 liter soda, rice, beans and plantains. Great for Friday night family meals!

A step above the typical Dominican restaurant in the area. Food is tasty, I had the garlic chicken with yellow rice and beans and I was pleased. Drinks were excellent, had a piña colada and my friends had the coconut mojito and both were made perfectly. Would’ve given it 4 stars but the service is extremely slow… Just paying the check took half hour! Would go back for the drinks only if i have plenty of time to kill.

I have been coming here for years and the food is always top quality and the service is outstanding, with reasonable prices. I love this place! It’s perfect for making memories.

It’s a RARE occasion where I give a business a bad rating. But the level of disappointment tonight was off the charts.
My sister and I decided to stay in and order some Spanish food. We both ordered the same thing: pernil, rice and beans. We also got tres leches cake. This was around 6:45.
Over an hour later, I called just to make sure everything was okay (making sure they took down the address correctly etc). This was around 7:50−8pm. I called back around 8:30 wondering where the food was. A few minutes later, the food arrived. We were starving and ready to munch, but not before the driver accused me of short changing him, when I in fact paid my bill AND gave him a $ 5 tip. In the rain no less. Safe to say, I was HIGHLY annoyed.
But it didn’t end there. We served ourselves and started to eat. We waited close to two hours for undercooked rice and overcooked pernil that was tasteless. At that point, we were over it. We threw out ALL the food. The only thing worth eating were the tres leches cakes. And I was not about to call back and wait another two hours for new food.
We learned our lesson. We won’t be ordering from here ever again.

I like this place. The food is pretty good. The love their tostones (fried green plantains). I’ve been told that they fry it, press it on a machine sort of thing, and then re-​fry it. So delicious.
I also really enjoy their Spanish and chicken soup. It’s delicious, huge, and really hearty. The chicken is always falling off the bone.
Spanish coffee is very good as well, they steam the milk and it’s only $ 1.75.
I don’t come here for anything crazy, just a quick bite to eat, and usually take out but when I do I’m always happy with what I get.
Very homemade vibe, friendly owner, although service is usually a bit slow.

New owner’s, not impressed, food bla, décor needs a make over. Oh well I was to hungry to drive to #Longhorn steak house.

My family and I come here all the time. We enjoy the food at every visit. Not a heavily traveled area by most, but if you’re in the area, it is certainly worth a visit. Although I’ve never used it, they have a party room downstairs to accommodate large private parties. The weekend breakfast is delish!

This was the worst food ever! The oxtails were nothing but fat! The plantains were burnt and dry! The pasteles were spoiled/​sour! They did not send the 2 orders of maduros and they refused to come back with our refund! I do not recommend this place! Food sucked! And Manager is a liar!

Great Dominican food… had grilled chicken stuffed with shrimp, it is accompanied with mash potatoes and vegetables and your choice of rice and beans or tostones (fried green plantains)… the seasoning is very carribbean and Dominican like and very tasteful. I would definitely recommend this place. 4 stars.

This place is disgusting, staff is very rude and slow. Food sucks!

Service was sooooo slow! I could’ve went to the grocery store, bought my ingredients, went home, cooked and ate faster than it takes the food to come out.
Each time I’ve gone there was no bartender present.
The waiter told me I could go behind the bar and mix my own drink if I liked. ummm, what? (He said I’d still have to pay full price for the drink though)
The food was good, nothing spectacular. Price was average for that area and the portions were large.
Luckily I speak fluent Spanish because no one there spoke English.
Only street parking available.
They have the makings of a great local spot IF they hire new staff.

I definately enjoyed breakfast here given the fact that my boyfriend is Dominican i thought i should give this place a shot. BOY was I pleasantly surprised, I had tres golpes which consists of mashed platanos topped with pickled onions, eggs, Salami and fried white cheese. Washed that down with Chinola juice and finished my breakfast with tres leches cake!!! Im so in love with the food ! I will come again for dinner

They USED to be very good, but now… Forget it, I ordered for pick up, and when I got home the worst diner ever !!! So sorry, maybe they changed the chef.
My opinion, not good at all
