I just went here this past Saturday with a friend, it?s only been four days and I?m itching to come back again. I cut meat out... of my diet almost a year ago and I?ve been struggling to find restaurants with enough vegetarian options on their menu, so thatwas enough to get me in the door. I got the dobladas with soy curls and it was AMAZING. My mouth is watering thinking about thatmeal! The texture of the soy curls was so similar to chicken and seasoned so beautifully I was in heaven. The hot sauce justtook the 10/10 meal to 15/10. Absolutely recommend- I?m already making plans to visit again! Read more
Their recommendation was amazing! Had an idea I wanted to taste the vegan pastelon. But went for the tropical guava sundae. The... server was very patient and helpful with all my questions. Had the coconut mojito which was good. Plan to return soon! Was told99% of the food can be prepared vegan. Read more
We came here for dinner to celebrate my friend?s 1 year in Chicago. The restaurant wasn?t too crowded but we were seated at the... same table with another couple, which we didn?t mind because that?s how it is back home where I?m from. The staff was veryfriendly and didn?t rush us even though we spent a lot of time chatting before ordering. I love the ambiance of the restaurant,it is casual & romantic. We got Mr. H mocktail - the smoked rosemary smelled really nice with the pear flavour. We all lovedhow the drink tasted as is but since it?s BYOB (Bring Your Own Bottle [of alcohol]), my friend brought her favourite Hendrick?sGin to add to it. For entrees, we got the Machuga Mofongo, Shrimp Paella, and Fried Red Snapper to share among the 4 of us.Everything tasted so good and we loved the mofongo (fried plaintain). We were all so full in the end but we had to try theflan. I love the presentation of the food at Casa Yari. The flowers and microgreens on the food as well as those in the vases.Not only was my nose & tummy satisfied, my eyes were so pleased by the beautiful visuals. I brought the pansy on the flan homeand put it in a frame with my other dried flowers / petals. My friends and I enjoyed our experience here that we think this isone of our favourite restaurants in Chicago and we cannot wait to return. Read more
The food was delicious and glad they had vegan options plus vegan flan, but disappointed with one of the dishes: Ordered the... surf & turf vegan seitan & oyster mushrooms for $36 but instead, received bella mushrooms with the seitan. For that price, Ishould have gotten my oyster mushrooms in the dish. Read more
My BF and I came here for brunch on Sunday. We are drawn to local spots that have extensive vegan options, as he is Vegan and I... limit my meat and dairy intake. I wish we would have found Casa Yari sooner. I "vegan french toast" and "shrimp and sweetgrits" were AMAZING. Full of flavor and beautiful presentation. We will be coming back in the future to try their dinner menu! Read more
Their vegan el Benedicto was delicious. Also love that it?s BYOB! Will definitely come back here to try all of their delicious... sounding vegan options. My non vegan friends all enjoyed their meals as well. Read more
Great experience. It was date night for my wife and we enjoyed trying new restaurants so we decided to try this place out. The... food presentation was excellent and the service was outstanding. The lighting could be turned down a little because the wholeceiling is covered with light. My pictures came out too bright but it's a place you must visit for date night.I can't wait totry out the outside patio Read more
