Great for happy hour
Hot spot
Neighborhood gem

Right in the heart of the East Village, Yuca Bar & Restaurant has been dishing out the best of Latin flavors for over two decades. Our menu is like a journey through Latin America, serving both timeless classics and fresh twists you've gotta try. And when it comes to drinks? Our cocktails are straight-up fire. Sit yourself down at our open window seating or the sidewalk café – prime spots for some solid city scenes and epic people-watching. Don't even think about missing our weekend brunch; it's a Latin food party you'll want to be part of. And hey, taco fans? Taco Tuesdays are on with a 50% off deal. For those in the mood for a deal, we've got an all-day, every-day happy hour that lasts until 8 pm. But the real party kicks off every Thursday, Friday, and Saturday with live DJ sets, bringing down the house with Latin rhythms and reggaetón beats. At Yuca, it's more than just food; it's a full-on Latin experience.

Food was just “ok”.Fatty steak tacos. First greeting was waiter telling us about the time limit at the table. Well we couldn’t wait to get out. Very loud and mediocre food.

Delicious food in a fun atmosphere. Very tasty guacamole; platano relleno and pinchho de pollo. The tres leches is extra special with a layer of gauyava paste on top! Service was friendly and prompt. We had a great time. Note: staff ask to turn tables after an hour and the calamari was rubbery— skip it.

It's a nice place, and there is really good service. Friendly with a smile. I did mention it was a birthday, and they did nothing. But, overall a good experience.

Food was good, but they rushed our dishes way too much since you only have 90 min to sit in, we ended up having all our orders in our table by the time we had our main course it was cold, it was a snowy night so nobody was walking in, not sure why rushing us. There are many other places with a larger variety of meals. Server not friendly.

We wanted a good quick reasonable meal out for a change. Yuca bar was fun festive and delicious. Pollo Pastor entree was delicious- also the BBQ rib appetizer is not to be missed!

First time at this restaurant and what a gem! Staff and servers were super nice and very accommodating. Food was very good and loved the options on the menu. If you are into a scene that involves good food, good service and a hip vibe, this is it! Big shout out to our servers Oscar and Paulina who were very attentive and ensured our drinks and food met expectations. I will definitely be going back!
