Excellent food and wonderful hostess! We had the fried green tomatoes and braised short rib appetizer and tuna and Halibut entree. Even though we had more than enough to eat , felt the need to try the tiramisu which was also very good. We will definitely be back!

Food and service were excellent! The restaurant is cozy and inviting. We will definitely be back!
Hard to believe that YF has been in existence for 25 years and I never had dinner here. Finally last night I went. Myself and the rest of my group were blown away by the quality of the food and the impeccable attentive service. Yes it's pricey but so worth it. The presentation of the food was over the top. The appetizers we ordered were outstanding. Try the short ribs over mash appetizer and the lemongrass dumplings. The coconut cream pie w bananas was to die for! by far this is one the best restaurants on LBI. One important thing worth mentioning we were never rushed to finish and depart YF. Cannot wait to go back.
Definitely make a reservation! Dining room is a little tight but nice ambiance. It is BYOB. Great menu. Service was excellent. Scallops were a little salty but overall we had a really good experience. Hard to get a reservation during the summer season but totally worth visit in the off season!
