The Death Burger is one of Yaga's specialty items! It starts with a 1/2 lb meat patty. Then, it's dressed with bacon, mushrooms, jalapeños, chili, cheese, lettuce, tomato, and pickle. We recommend this if you're really hungry - it's quite a handful! All burgers come with your choice of side. Options include french fries, sweet potato tots, salad, sugar snap peas, cajun potatoes, and broccoli.

Roasted Garlic Pizza

Branch out and try something different with the roasted garlic pizza. This pizza comes with chicken, roasted garlic (of course), olive oil, and mozzarella! All the pizzas are hand tossed in house for optimal texture and quality. Of course, if you prefer to go with a less adventurous flavor, they offer all the classics as well. Some other favorites include meat lovers, tomato basil, white pizza, and pepperoni. For something really out of the box, check out the Keto Salmon Avocado Pizza.
