The wonderful soul that was working the place when we stopped by has the most genuine, caring heart for Yum Yum patrons and the quality dishes that they’re served. I am surprised that this establishment is not more popular throughout the week, but every aspect of this restaurant is exceptional! The inviting atmosphere, extensive menu, culinary mastery, and the delicious consistency of this cultured restaurant are just a few of the reasons for why you must visit it once in your lifetime! Fort Collins should be proud of this joint and the incredible folks that keep it in such great shape :) The owner’s banana bread recipe is otherworldly and the hot sauce they have is amazing!

Walked in for a carryout order. I was immediately welcomed by a very friendly blonde woman who was actively taking care of some other patrons but politely advised she would be right with me. They were offering a special feature which I ordered (it was a Jamaican-style Gyro with a lightly dressed slaw, shredded lettuce, seasoned tomatoes and their house special sauce). It was absolutely delicious! The Chef brought it out and was also so kind, wishing me safe travels whilst thanking me for my patronage. Support local like this place...they do it right!! I’ve enjoyed it every time so my apologies it took me so long to write a review, but please accept my sincere thanks for wonderful food and service!

This is a little haven with perfectly brewed Arabic coffee, wonderful shawarma sandwich, amazing falafel, and brilliant baklava. I look forward to returning and trying other delicious dishes.

When I saw the name Yum Yum, I thought it was an Asian restaurant... was I mistaken... This is a Lebanese/Jamaican fusion restaurant.. I must admit, the Jamaican options were scarce compared to the many Lebanese dishes.. So I had to try the jerk chicken special.. and was it good?, ya better believe it.. The falafel was basic, but the accompanying sauce was not.. it was nice and flavorful. I was able to enjoy my 2nd Lebanese beer, ever. and it went down smooth.. If you're ready for something different, you gotta try this spot. Bon appetite.

I’m pleased to say Yum Yum’s has upped their game!! Beautiful interior, good vibes, and well priced, delicious food. Got their lunch special for 8 bucks - can’t beat that deal anywhere for fresh food! Highly recommend. P.s. their signature fry sauce is delish ...

Had an amazing time at Yum Yum Social! The service was fantastic and the food was great! They have a ton of vegetarian and vegan options. Happy Hour daily from 3pm-6pm, which has food and drink specials! We ordered the Jamaican Jerk Chicken, Falafel Sandwich, Tabbouleh Salad, and the Beef Shawarma Sandwich. It was all very good! I normally am not a big fan of slaw but the slaw served with the jerk chicken was amazing!! I also sipped on a Lebanese Mule which was also delicious! They also had a large section of board games, which was great to keep the teenagers off their phones. Highly recommend and we will definitely back!

Moving my daughter into her new place in Fort Collins and we started to get hungry, so decided to try this place. It was the best decision! It was lunch time on a Saturday in February, but a beautiful day outside that we decided to have it on the front patio. The server brought us menus and waters. She was good and took care of us for lunch. I wanted a gyro, but there was a jerk chicken special. She then told me that they were doing the gyro with the jerk chicken instead. This is going to be ordered every time I go here from now on! The jerk spice has a serious kick, but so worth it. We also got Falafel to start the meal and the two pieces on top of a salad that was refreshing. My daughter got the Chicken Shawarma and ate the whole thing. The food here is top notch food and huge portions that hit the spot.

From the moment I walked in, the service was top-notch—friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, making it a perfect spot to relax and enjoy a meal. Now, the food? Absolutely amazing. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. The balance of spices and textures made every bite memorable. I’ll definitely be coming back! If you're in the area and craving great Mediterranean food with a fantastic vibe, this is the place to go.
