We extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who dined, ordered takeout, and even made donations to our Rady Children's Pediatric Inflammatory Brain Disorders (PIDB) Fundraiser. We're thrilled to announce that we raised over $3000, all thanks to our kind-hearted guests. This cause is very close to us, and raising awareness about this lesser known yet treatable condition is crucial. Look out for symptoms like sudden behavioral changes or unexplained symptoms following an illness—these could be signs of PIBD, which happens when an overactive immune system mistakenly targets healthy brain cells, leading to inflammation.

For those in the Scripps Ranch community, you may be aware that the Rady Children's Scripps Ranch Auxiliary is hosting their annual fundraiser dinner on Saturday, April 27th in La Jolla, supporting the PIBD Program. We're excited to attend and contribute an auction item—a wine dinner for 8 at Yanni's. Although tickets are sold out, donations are welcome through the Scripps Ranch Auxiliary at their website. They also have a FaceBook page here.

Your support means the world to us—cheers!

Yanni, Denise, and the YB&G Team

Northern Mediterranean Cuisine in Southern California

Yanni's Bar & Grill has fulfilled the need for a great restaurant in the Poway and Scripps Ranch area. A loyal following of guests comes from Rancho Bernardo, Ramona and Escondido, even traveling from as far as Rancho Santa Fe, La Jolla, Julian and Point Loma.

Yannis MusselsThe feeling at Yanni's Bar & Grill is elegant and sophisticated without being stuffy. Simplicity is the focus: delicious food served in a comfortable, spotlessly clean environment.

Proprietors Yanni & Denise Pihas are veterans in the hospitality industry, and owned a very successful restaurant in Sherman Oaks. Previously they worked for the Ritz-Carlton Hotel Company in several locations throughout the United States.

In keeping with Yanni's and Denise's heritage, the menu reflects a fusion of northern Mediterranean cuisine with predominant influences of Greece and Italy.

Two wonderful patios complement the dining room and lounge and is perfect for dining al fresco.

A very extensive wine list was designed to complement the menu and has a very good balance between old and new world wines with some hard-to-find wines and vintages from Yanni's private cellar. Yanni features his own wine label called “Grano Greco” (Yanni's nickname), along with a large variety of wines by the glass. Quite often Yanni will open an exceptional wine to make it available by the glass.

Come and visit Yanni's Bar & Grill for a gourmet lunch or a memorable dinner!

Yanni & Denise
