Yanni's Grille - Sparta

We were in the area and were looking for lunch. We took a chance with this place and I am glad we did. We had lasagna and it was one of the best ever. It had lots of mozzarella cheese. We were disappointed that it didn’t have any meat sauce on top, so waitress brought us a small side of meat sauce, which made a big difference. Then we had strawberry cheesecake for dessert and it was really good. Service was prompt, efficient and all the staff were courteous and professional at the same time. We would definitely return when in the area.

We found this on Yelp, I selected it because I felt it would have a Greek owner and I associate good food with Greek owners. My husband had the prime rib in loved it, We both had the tomato basil soup We enjoyed it but we did not really like the macaroni in it, I had the grilled shrimp dinner and it was delicious and plentiful.

If you are celebrating that special occassion and are seeking a delicious feast for the palette; take the beautiful and scenic drive to Yannis Grille in Sparta, Tennessee.The prime. rib, pasta, fried mushrooms and Big Fat Greek salad were amazing. #thewanderingvolpis

Placed a to go order, which I could not place by phone since they take the phone off the hook when they’re busy. Placed the order in person at 6pm, there was a patron sitting awaiting to be seated. I was told 20-25 minutes, I came back in 30 minutes and the order was not ready. Two other to go orders were placed while I was waiting for mine, at 6:53 when the other two to go orders had been given theirs, mind you I asked several times for my order to be checked on, I asked for a refund! The hostess went back to let them know, at which point she came back and said it’s ready now, I could have a refund or my order. I asked for my order, while they were putting it together, cause it wasn’t “ready”, the original customer who was awaiting to be seated, was now exiting after finishing his meal! I was asked if I wanted drinks, I declined, just wanted my order. We were going to order a pizza at the same time to have for the next day, but they weren’t making pizza since they were busy??? I won’t be returning tomorrow for the pizza.

My first visit impression; The staff were friendly and attentive. Service was quick, food hot. The menu is the standard selections with the establishments spin. The bill, reasonable for for the menu.
