A name change for Yoli Restaurant on 3rd Street

Photos by Stacie Joy 

A new-name era is underway at Yoli Restaurant ... which is now going by Leon's Cafe over at 274 E. Third St. between Avenue C and Avenue D.

However, not much else is different at the inexpensive quick-serve restaurant specializing in homestyle Dominican cuisine. EVG contributor Stacie Joy stopped by the other day to learn that pretty much everything is the same: kitchen staff, phone number, hours of operation (7 a.m. to 5 p.m.) and menu items ...  
A worker explained that longtime manager Yolanda Garcia is spending more time at home these days. (We're not sure where Leon came from.)

Also the same: no website, third-party delivery apps or Instagram account. 

You can call (212) 420-1075 for delivery...
