Yanas Restaurant

Came here with some friends while visiting swansboro. Great little place with 50s and 60s decor. Fantastic Elvis statue out front. Service was super amd the food was delicious. We tried the fruit fritters and weren't disappointed. We'll definitely add this to our list when we come back!!

Way back in the day (2003) I worked for OCHD as their immunization tracker & would accompany our immunization nurse to the middle schools for Hep B & Tetanus shots to 6th graders. The best part about those outreach clinics was lunch with the school nurses. It's how I found all the locals places. Yana's was our Swansboro go to and despite moving away in 2011 and just now going back, the food was just as delicious today as it was then. And everyone who has dined repeatedly at a favorite place knows things rarely stay (or taste) the same. Bestie & hit Yana's shortly after 11 this beautiful Saturday morning and even though there were 4 parties ahead of us, we barely waited 15 minutes. I've had alot of the items on the menu during those outreaches (and with family) and never had anything I did

Stopped here for a late lunch with some friends and really enjoyed the atmosphere. The food and service was good. The dessert was yummy. We never felt rushed, even though we go there about 40 mins before closing time. We met the owner and he was so nice. He gave us quite a bit of history and showed us around the place.

This may be the BEST diner I've been to yet! It's too much in a good way! We had to try the Fritters as they claim to be famous for them....and yes, they should be famous for them, they are SO GOOD! We had a full serving and did 1/2 strawberry and 1/2 apple. The fritters are made with fresh fruit and made to order. They are fantastic and a must try! Our breakfast was very good. The littles loved the Mickey Mouse pancake. Coffee is fresh and server and all staff are friendly and focused on making sure you have a great meal. We will be back for more fritters and to try the lunch menu!

Great first experience during the hectic light up Swansboro. Enjoyed the taco salad, and an old-tyme root beer float
