First time dining here and I really enjoyed it. Dawn was the best!!!!!!!! She was very attentive and sweet! Salad, cheese pizza and bread was delicious! I also had a create your own pasta, it was good but it had waaay too much pasta in comparison with the other ingredients I put on it (onions, green peppers, shrimp and mushrooms) so I was left with pasta and salsa once I finished the ingredients… don’t know if I would order the pasta again, but will definitely go back for the pizza and to try something new!

I have gone to Ynot Italian ever since I was a kid and it is genuinely phenomenal. The food here is the best Italian I have ever had. I ordered tortellini with meat sauce and mozzarella cheese and I was in love. They give kids dough to play with while they wait. You can rent a more private area for birthdays. It’s perfect for kids, families, couples, friends. The environment is friendly and warm. The owner, Tony is very friendly and nice. It is absolute perfection.
Even when it’s late, it’s still great!! Edit: And even years after my review I can vouch that nothing has changed!!!! Literally everything on the menu is good!!!!!

I used to eat at YNot frequently. Over time, the quality of the food has gotten worse. I miss the old YNot when everything was always delicious.

Went for a late evening meal near closing time. They were very accommodating for our group of 8. My pasta dish was only like warm. Taste was Ok. Was hoping for more of a garlic kick but it was not to

Only my 2nd time eating here but it is surely a must have when I'm in the area! I've had pasta, salad, appetizers and pizza. Everything has been great and filling! Staff are always very welcoming and the atmosphere is chill.Vegetarian options: There are several meatless options or you can create your own like I did. I asked for a pizza with spinach and mushrooms!Kid-friendliness: Spacious table arrangements.... should be easy for people with children needing highchairs or booster seats.
Came in to get some dough and dessert for a party. Love the service so kind and friendly. Nice to see a smile. Very welcoming, Best pizza dough around! Bakery had a large variety of fresh cookies and eclairs. Everyone enjoyed their dessert that evening!Parking: Easy shopping center parking
ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! Kelly took my order to just precook my pizza with no problem.Peter was HEAVEN SENT!! He delivered my pizza and said a wonderful prayer with me. It came just on time. I lost my AWESOME son ???BRANDYN??? to the 2nd vaccination shot (Pfizer), and Peter arrived with my pizza and just asked if I mind him saying a prayer for me. He made my day as we chatted about the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen!Peter keep spreading the Gospel of the Lord

We ordered pizzas 45 minutes and went to pick them up and they were not ready and the person proceeded to tell us they messed up and have to make the pizzas. They were pepperoni. How do you mess up 2 pepperoni pizzas. We were supposed to be somewhere with pizzas by a certain time and now late because they had to make our pizzas. So over an hour. Really not impressed and will NEVER be back here.

I've been coming to this location since they opened, that is like 1991 or 1992. So hear me out. 32 years is a long time. I have eaten here by myself, with family and friends many many times for special occasions, etc., and just for fun. Always enjoyed it. I've ordered many of the items on the menu and all of it was good. I remember the original narrow, deep footprint and then the subsequent additions of the deli and then an ice cream parlor and all of that. Really cool to see things evolve now into a really large space.Ynot was also always known as the place where you could get good Italian American food and at a very good value and feel like you walked away satisfied and happy each time. They never tried to be Aldo's or Pasta e Pani or New York New York or Bella Italia or Il Giardino or Isle of Capri or Sirena or any the myriad other fancier Italian joints that littered their zip code and the adjacent zip code. Admittedly, I ate at those places too. And you knew what you were getting with each different experience. And how much money to bring haha. Ynot never tried to compete with that, they just stayed in their lane offering good food and a good price. Family oriented.Now, I had not been to Ynot in a couple of years, mostly because I moved residences, so on my recent perusal of the menu I was surprised that things had changed so much and that prices...well, gulp...had skyrocketed well beyond even what the crazy pandemic-induced inflationary pressures would/should have dictated. For a lasagna and a side salad, $28? For a bowl of pasta with no meat and only marinara and a side salad, $20 plus dollars? The bowl of pasta with meatLESS sauce is probably $2.35 food cost. If that. Just three years ago that dinner would cost me around $13. Lasagna dinner around $19.75. And before you say that everything else everywhere else has gone up, while that is true, if you look at places with economies of scale, at local competitors like No Frill Grill, their prices have gone up maybe 15-20% at most, while Ynot has raised prices 40 to 50 plus percent? This doesn't add up. Pizzas exceeding $30? A hot sub and fries at 22 bucks? A salmon salad is almost $30 while at many other places around town that are also as good or better you can get them for 18 to 25....and they haven't gone up 50% either.And those are just a few examples, as I haven't really dissected the entire menu... although I saw salads can rise into the twenties with just chicken given all the customizations available. You can get those all day in the mid-teen at other reputable places. And no, I don't mean Applebee's lol. I mean good places.I don't know what happened to the owners. The family men with the family restaurant have removed family out of the equation. This is not family-friendly pricing. Not anymore. From now on I'm going to just go to Aldo's or the others and blow my wad because they are now a much a better value on a relative basis, as their prices haven't gone up nearly as much on a percentage basis. No Frill is killing it, always packed and prices are still good. The quality of their produce and product is better and their food costs with all of the seafood and other meats they serve has got to cos more than cheese and dough and pasta and sauce. I can't even figure out how they do it, but maybe Ynotshould ask them. So much for economies of scale with Ynot.We have choices. And I'm choosing, sadly, to end things with this establishment after 32 years. I have a lot of good memories that I'll take with me.
