Lincoln Park has no shortage of restaurants, but finding real Greek food — the kind made from scratch with imported ingredients and family recipes — is harder than it should be. That’s exactly why Yaya Mas Greek Kuzina exists. Located at 1755 N Sheffield Ave, we’re Lincoln Park’s home for authentic Greek and Mediterranean cuisine, open daily from 9:30AM and serving late-night bites until 5AM Wednesday through Saturday.
What We Serve
Our menu covers everything from morning pastries to late-night gyros, all made fresh in our kitchen using traditional Greek techniques and imported ingredients. Here’s a taste of what’s waiting for you:
Greek Breakfast & Bougatsa
Start your morning with our Bougatsa Thessalonikis — warm phyllo filled with semolina custard, dusted with cinnamon. Pair it with a Freddo Cappuccino for the full Thessaloniki experience. Our spanakopita and tiropita are baked fresh every morning. See our full breakfast menu →
Gyros, Souvlaki & Wraps
Our gyros are made with hand-stacked lamb and beef, shaved to order and served on warm pita with our house tzatziki. We also offer chicken souvlaki, falafel wraps, and our signature Greek bowls — all built with fresh vegetables, real feta, and extra-virgin olive oil.
Ancient Greek Pizza
Before Italy had pizza, Greece had plakous — flatbread topped with olive oil, herbs, and cheese. Our Ancient Greek Pizza brings that tradition to Lincoln Park with hand-stretched dough, imported Greek cheeses, and Mediterranean toppings you won’t find anywhere else in Chicago.
Greek Desserts
Every dessert is handmade daily — classic baklava, cheesecake baklava, portokalopita (Greek orange cake), walnut pie, and our famous bougatsa. Explore our dessert menu →
Why Lincoln Park Locals Choose Yaya Mas
We’re not a chain and we’re not trying to be everything to everyone. We’re a family-run Greek kitchen that does one thing — authentic Greek and Mediterranean food — and does it right. Everything is made from scratch, from our phyllo dough to our tzatziki. We use imported Greek feta, extra-virgin olive oil from Kalamata, and real Greek honey in our pastries.
Our location on Sheffield Ave puts us right in the heart of Lincoln Park, steps from DePaul University, the Lincoln Park Zoo, and some of the neighborhood’s best streets for walking and dining. Whether you’re a DePaul student looking for a quick gyro between classes, a young professional grabbing dinner after work, or a family looking for something different on a Saturday night, we’ve got you covered.
