Description

Name notwithstanding, YaYas recently opened in the eastern third of the Promenade at Chenal shopping center (if you get to the IMAX cinema you've gone just a little too far west) with a pretty high level of cuisine and an upper-middle-level price range.
YaYas' groined, heavy-beamed ceiling and the quasi-stone support pillars give the restaurant an appearance somewhere between a rustic steakhouse and a medieval dungeon.
There are three seating sections:
Farthest from the door is an area of booths, hand-upholstered in two basic earth-tone patterns, a sort of prairie-grass backdrop and rows of what might be cocked eyeballs or martini-glass olives.
In the middle is a sort of semi-tiled stone floor with seating at sturdy wood tables and hardwood chairs that have earth-tone-upholstered upper backs.
Nearest the door is the "bistro" area, really bar seating, where the oblong tables could seat as many as three but not comfortably. They're mainly designed as resting spots for drinks, not food, but you can eat there if the rest of the restaurant is full.
