Yamas Meze & Tapas Restaurant in Nottingham

Reviews

   We went to Yamas in Nottingham after hearing about it from other people and for my love of greek food after going to Greece for many family holidays. Rather than having the set menu we picked quite a few dishes off the other section of the menu. The food was really nice but we ordered a bit too much. Got quite a fair portion and was full at the end of it. Next time not going to order as many dishes. Staff were lovely and very attentive. Only downside was the ambient noise of the restaurant. I felt like I couldn't hear myself think.

   Friendly greeting as soon as you enter the restaurant. Good service with attentive staff. The food was tasty - good flavors. Plain table setting but overall good experience, plan to return in the future. I recommend trying the octopus.

   This is a very surprising restaurant, aparently the place doesn't look much, a bit crowded, no design at all, nothing like the typical Grek restaurant, some of the staffs are a bit grumpy, but ok in the end..... buuuut the food is very good. We ordered a variety of small platters that were absolutely delicious, I been pleasantly surprised. The mains were quite large and good, but they were missing a salad, could be great to have a gyros with a bit of salad on a side, maybe they can take this comment as improvement for future menu. The place can be quite busy at certain times of the day so if you want to dine in group is better to book a table in advance.

   Came here as a group of 4 and ordered many tapas dishes. Incredible food. Everything was cooked to perfection and had amazing flavour. We felt it was really reasonably priced for the quality and quantity of food. Left very happy and very full!

   Have been here many times with my partner, but this time I went with a party of 18. Have to say for a large party the service was excellent. We decided (or it was suggested) that most large parties go for the meze, which was great as you get to try many of the beautiful dishes. Be warned though, there is a LOT of food to get through and I doubt many parties get through it all. Unfortunately I have two complaints, the chicken skewers were dry and non descript and why on earth you would bring the big bowls of Greek salad out at the very end of the meal, when everyone can't finish what was left on the table already was beyond me and 3 out of the 5 bowls were untouched.
