This is some of the best Cubanfood I have ever eaten and I’ve eaten at many Cuban place in the Miami area over the years and yet this place is in Williamsburg, VA. Drink prices during happy hour are a great value. Unfortunately we don’t live in the area otherwise we’d be eating at this place weekly.

Ever since we found Le Yaca a year ago on a trip to Colonial Williamsburg, they earned a place on our “must do” lists. The service is impeccable - the food perfectly prepared - somehow managing to be imaginative and classic at the same time. The restaurant is beautiful as well. Cocktails were generous and the prix fixe menu will give you pause, with all the incredible options. Also of note: every single staff person seemed genuinely pleased to have us as guests. Smiles, greetings, and thanks made us feel welcomed into a place they were proud to represent.

Came in for nice quiet lunch before the holiday crowds hit. Excellent food and service all the way our server Justice (Justus) was super, attentive and well-trained! We definitely will ask him next time we are in!

We often order the Caesar salad and margarita pizza which we split. Both are excellent and they come with a basket of just out of the oven rolls. It is a very delicious lunch for $30.

The beef kebab and the stuffed eggplant were both excellent . Both were served with salad, vegetables , rice and tzatziki making them a complete , tasty meal. The baklava would have been very good had it not been too cold, just out of the fridge. Were it not for it I would have given 5 stars. The service was very very good and friendly , typical of a restaurant run by the owner. We very much appreciated the white linen tablecloths. We will be in Williamsburg for one week and we plan to go back, this time probably for lunch .
