New home for Yanni’s

Spent the afternoon chasing down yet another restaurant world rumor, and this one? It turns out to be true. Yanni’s, the opa-and-ouzo Greek taverna, is finally abandoning its home of eighteen years — a strip mall at 2223 South Monaco — and moving out for the new Landmark development. According to the manager I got on the blower just ahead of dinner service, the new space (next to the movie theater, right in the middle of the Landmark’s restaurant row) is currently being built out, with the hope that Yanni’s should make the big move sometime around August.
