"Yia Yia" means "grandmother" in Greek, but this is not your grandmother's kitchen! The salads here blend wonderful greens with ingredients such as Gorgonzola cheese, apples, walnuts and fennel. Appetizers called "Euro bites" include grilled shrimp wrapped in pancetta as well as a beautifully prepared crab risotto. Entrees such as beef tenderloin, grilled salmon and lamb are enhanced by sauces such as cilantro and sweet garlic emulsions, along with side dishes including goat cheese potato cakes. Kids, meanwhile, can choose individual pizzas, peanut butter sandwiches or pasta dishes. Yia Yia offers an excellent selection of single-malt scotch by the glass, plus flavored martinis and a full bar. Dress is suburban casual.
