“Absolutely loved the experience while there but unfortunately my partner and I both got severe food poisoning the next day. There’s a potential the food poisoning didn’t come from Ya’s, however that’s the only thing we’d eaten the same in days and the chicken was left out in the heat for a solid hour before it was cooked. Great experience, great tasting food and lovely hosts, just be mindful of the potential food poisoning.”
