Chez Yasu

Chez Yasu is one of the top 3 fine dining restaurants in Kansas. The flavors are fresh and bring your taste buds to life! We have been a few times and they absolutely earn 5 stars and are highly recommended.

Finally decided to try this restaurant. Wish we hadn't. The food was below par for French cuisine. The wait staff was pleasant enough and the atmosphere was quaint if a bit dated. Dishes ordered: appetizers crab cake and scallops. Crab cake was ok but lacked some flavor. Scallops were very small as if they'd been halved before cooking. Decent flavor though. Main course salmon in butter sauce with mashed potatoes and candied carrots & braised beef short ribs same sides. Presentation was alright... both mashed potatoes were horribly prepared. Waitress stated the chef was new and poured the cream way too fast. Very runny and lacked any flavors I could even taste. The candied carrots were not candied just boiled with a pinch of sugar. Main dishes: salmon was cooked properly but lacked any

Our server, a young man, was very attentive and kind. The food was delicious. For the expensive prices, the interior needs updating and cleaned up. The restroom floor was very sticky and needed cleaned. Establishment needs attention to cleaning and freshening up detailing. Your prices are quite expensive for this city, the menu was limited ... the place should be clean and reflect those factors. I had never been there to eat. It might be awhile before I go back, or recommend until they freshen up the physical building, i.e., internal anesthetics.

First time here and the food was really delicious. Will definitely be back. I had a crab cake for the appitizer and the salmon and seafood crepe with potatoes and carrots for dinner. Topped off with a Cabernet some nice gentleman bought for me and I also got a Moscato.

Why haven't we been here before? We found Chez Yasu by looking for restaurants in Topeka. This one is well off the beaten path and it's camouflaged within a residential area. Don't let the outside appearance of the building fool you, there's delicious French cuisine inside. Seating is limited as are the hours of operation. We got lucky that it was a slow day and we did not need reservations. The food had good flavor and the service was great. We ordered the lamb chops and the beef ribs with a couple of drinks. We will keep Chez Yasu in mind when we return to Topeka.
