4 weeks agoYard House did not disappoint! I started with the calamari, and it was so good! Crispy, seasoned well and definitely enough to share. For my entrée, I had the ribeye cooked medium with mashed potatoes and a Caesar salad. My steak was cooked exactly how I like it, had great flavor and the mashed potatoes were really good too.
Everything came out fresh and we really enjoyed our meal.
Nowwww let's talk about the Pink Dragon because YES! It was cute, refreshing and GOOD.
Definitely a drink I would order again.
We finished with the brownie for dessert to celebrate my birthday, perfect way to end dinner.
Our service was amazing. Our server was attentive, friendly and made sure we had everything we needed without hovering over us.
Great food, great drinks, great service and a really good experience. I would definitely come back!

3 months agoYesterday I visited Yard House after hearing many positive reviews. As many people know, Yard House is a popular restaurant chain that also places a strong focus on its extensive beer selection.
One of the first things that stood out to me was the variety of the menu. There are plenty of options available, making it easy for everyone in a group to find something they enjoy. For an appetizer, I tried the Shrimp Cake, which was enjoyable. For my main course, I ordered the Beef Wellington, while my companion chose one of their burgers.
Overall, the food was good, but I would describe it as average rather than exceptional. If you’re in the area looking for a casual place to grab a meal and enjoy a beer with friends, Yard House is certainly a solid choice. However, if your goal is to experience outstanding cuisine, there may be better options available.
One area where the restaurant truly excelled was the service. Our server was attentive, friendly, and professional throughout the entire visit, which made the experience much more enjoyable.
Overall, I would recommend Yard House as a great spot for a casual dining experience, especially for those who appreciate a wide beer selection and a diverse menu.

4 months agoAfter seeing Blue Man Group, we headed to Yard House for a late dinner and it was the perfect way to end the evening.
Our table ordered a little bit of everything, and every dish was excellent. The ahi tuna was fresh and flavorful, the street tacos were delicious, and the chicken Alfredo was rich, creamy. The truffle fries appetizer and chips and guac were excellent. My son was even given a complimentary birthday dessert which was a nice touch and beautifully presented.
The atmosphere was lively and energetic without feeling overwhelming. Plenty of TVs for sports fans, a great crowd, and of course an incredible beer selection. Service was friendly, attentive, and kept everything moving despite how busy the restaurant was.
What I appreciate most is that Yard House has something for everyone. Whether you’re craving seafood, pasta, tacos, steak, or a great craft beer, there’s a huge variety on the menu and the quality was consistently good across the board.
A fun atmosphere, great food, and excellent service made this a fantastic stop after our show. We’ll definitely be back.

4 months agoThe atmosphere was lively and really busy when we visited, but our waitress was great regardless.. My husband loved the extensive beer selection and really enjoyed his club sandwich. I tried the Korean tacos, which were tasty. I also found the margaritas to be very good. It was also a plus that they had a kids menu.
