A recent invitation to visit Yatai Ramen Bar turned into an absolutely lovely gastronomic experience.
Located in bustling Bree Street in Cape Town’s CBD, Yatai welcomes you into its aesthetic warmth with cherry-blossom touches and a bang-on-trend open kitchen that emanates intimacy and culinary passion.
Yatai is the perfect spot to celebrate your anniversary, birthday, or a new romance. But if you’ve simply developed a yen for slurping up authentic Asian flavours in an atmosphere synonymous with love, you’ll fall in love with the ambience too!
Yatai is nothing short of next level. The food, the staff and the warmth are a true testament to excellence in service. I would highly recommend Yatai Ramen Bar to anyone feeling a bit nostalgic about anything, really, or those just wanting to experience a world of authentic East Asian flavours right here in the Mother City.
Nothing at Yatai was good – everything was EXCELLENT!
