Mother's Day Dinner at Theo Yianni's Restaurant #WhenInWeirton

After attending mass  on  Mother's Day, we decided to eat at Theo Yianni's.  It's a family restaurant   here in Weirton that  serves Greek food.  They recently expanded and relocated to a new  and bigger  location.  Hubby and I  ate at their old  location and thought that their food  is decent but we have never taken our kids to eat there yet so we thought this would be a  great time to introduce them to Greek food.
 When it comes to  eating, my husband is  well-rounded  because of his world-wide experiences  when he was still in the Navy.  He's the one who introduced me to different kinds of food.  When I was single, all I know is  Filipino food but when I got married, I was introduced to a different kind of cuisines.
 Anyway, Theo Yianni's new location is bigger and beautiful compared to their old location.  Their facility is super clean and the ambiance is very inviting.  All their  employees are super nice and we love the fact that the owner walks around the table and talk to patrons, that to me is a big plus.
 Theo Yianni's is a combination of a bar and a restaurant.  The bar is located on the other side and the restaurant on the other.
My three dining buddies always get something sweet to drink when we go out but I always  have water with lemon.
My daughter and I's meals came with  fresh salad.  The salad alone filled me up already.
My daughter love the dipping sauce for the  dinner rolls.  I didn't care about it.  To me  dinner roll is good to eat as it is lol.
I had the  bourbon glazed  salmon.  It came with potatoes and  beans.  The beans is cooked with tomato sauce, it was my first time having that kind of beans prepared that way.  It was something new.  I'm not sure if I like it or not lol.

They have a dish called flaming  something (sorry I can't remember the exact   dish name lol) but  it was cool to watch the server  do it in front of the customer.  My husband took a picture but it didn't caught the flame.
I like the way they serve food, every server has to bring this portable table for them to set the tray before distributing orders.  I thought it's quite  unique and very  helpful  for the servers to deliver food   in every table efficiently.  
Overall, it was a great dining experience  at Theo Yianni's.  If you ever come to Weirton and looking for a good place to eat, I would  say "Check out Theo Yianni's".  
I had a great Mother's day celebration with my lovelies!  Hubby and the kids got me  some  special treats too.
 Instead of bouquets, I love  miniature roses because I can plant and grow them and  they always reminds me of the special occasion whenever I am in the garden and see them bloom!
 These  assorted brownies have  the fudge, cream cheese, and  turtle ones.  My favorite was the  cream cheese.
The brownies are so good but very rich so it kind of messed up my diet lol.  But it's okay as we hot the tennis court after we ate  our dessert.
