Yanni Bistro is truly a hidden gem in Matthews, NC.
I’ve been here a few times before and always loved their food—especially the salads, which are consistently fresh and flavorful. And let’s not forget the gingersnaps. It seems like every time I visit, they’re generously offering complimentary gingersnaps.
Today, I stopped in on a whim during my day off and ordered a lavender latte with almond milk and a gluten-free BLT. I decided to sit outside, soaking in the minimalist decor and letting the sound of birdsong become the soundtrack to my morning.
Then something unexpected and lovely happened—the owner brought my BLT out to me personally and struck up a conversation. What started as a quick meal turned into a 30-minute, soul-filling talk about food, wellness, and the importance of clean ingredients. I learned that everything on the menu is sourced locally from the farmers market next door, and I could genuinely feel his passion and care behind every bite.
Yanni Bistro gets 10 out of 5 stars for their incredible customer service, peaceful atmosphere, and commitment to healthy, locally-sourced ingredients. They also offer fantastic gluten-free and vegan options, which is a huge plus.
If you’re in the area—go. Take yourself on a breakfast date. You might just leave with more than a full belly.

Elena is so very kind and welcoming. We love it here. The food is delicious--highly recommend the Bavarian cream crepe made soft (add banana & Nutella for extra deliciousness) and the El Rancho - made crispy! We love coming here and recently celebrated our first wedding anniversary by having breakfast here and Elena made sure we felt extra special by bringing out our food with a surprise dessert. P.S. they have gluten free crepes that are divine!!!
A cozy spot with a modern vibe, offering a unique and satisfying dining experience with creative dishes in generous portions.

I can't believe I have not been here to eat before. I'm so excited to see all of the gluten-free options available. I'm really looking forward to ordering the French toast one day. The eggs, bacon, and grits I had today were amazing. Great coffee and love that they brought a carafe for us.

Overall great experience. It was our anniversary dinner with my wife and 2.5 year old. Service was great and so were the drinks and the food. They catered to my wife's gluten intolerance as well. We started with drinks, the Heatwave Martini was SO good (and spicy), as was the Strawberry Rose Sidecar. We ordered the Mussels Josephine for an appetizer- delicious. For entree, my wife got the Sea Bass and added a lobster tail, which was incredible. I got the Filet Mignon and added a lobster tail, also good. My son got fish sticks from the kids menu. For dessert we got the gluten free brownie with ice cream. I definitely recommend coming here. It is a chain, but better quality food than most.
