- Social News NetworkSeptember 26, 2013Every server I've had here has been super friendly. The shrimp poboy was to die for - big juicy shrimp lightly fried to perfection. Cajan fries aren't bad, but their regular spuds are where it's at!
Galveston.comFebruary 25, 2012From sandwiches to hot-from-the-oven pizzas to weekend live entertainment to the jammin' outdoor patio, Yaga's Cafe and Bar is the place to go when you're ready for Jamaican-style good times.
Lauren DowneyAugust 21, 2012The White Pizza is where it's at! So yummy! Also, their queso, which comes with a small but super tasty cup of hot sauce, is always fabulous!
Paul PiersonDecember 10, 2013Our first time here; definitely won't be our last. The shrimp burger was recommended by our courteous service provider and was very good.
Jordan WhiteJune 1, 2015Good menu selection. Nice patio and inside seating. One of my Galveston faves.
Best place to eat on The Strand and one of our favorites in Galveston! The Mango salmon salad is so good!
GalvestonSocial.comApril 25, 2012Yaga's is Galveston. Great location and great times at Yaga's Cafe. Live music on the weekends, lunch specials with a variety of great food.
Miriam GoldmanDecember 31, 2015One of my favourite restaurants, period. The Spanish rice is delicious.
The Parmesan deep fried zucchini with ranch was really great! Also, try the Goombay Smash :-)
Liz TorresJanuary 12, 2013Err on the side of caution when ordering the turkey burger...not sure if it was cooked all the way, was eh. French fries way better than cajan fries.
elizabeth brothersAugust 22, 2015Hey this place has a good burger...I would go here before Fudd ruckers around the corner.
Kendra McCaskillMarch 15, 2013Loved getting free queso and chips today with a meal. Very cool foursquare!
Vlad DavidiukJune 13, 2017Horrible. The hamburger was charred – dry and flavorless. The bun was flaky & crumbly, not at all what I expected. Sadly, the meals my kids had were equally disappointing. Made a mistake walking in.
Sean RobertsAugust 8, 2011Cheap beer, crappy food. Don't be surprised when your queso is more water than cheese.
- Adam ScottFebruary 9, 2012Not impressed with Cajun fries. Ziggys peppered shrimp wasn't as spicy as it was made out to be. Snap peas were great though.
