Yard House

Really, Stopped in for lunch today had the fish & chips cup of french onion soup. Wife had the ahi tuna sandwich. First off the best part of the meal was the soup my fish and chips was mushy the beer batter was horible my fries were cold and under cooked My wife said they took a beautiful piece of fish and ruined it. I rarely complain but this was worth the effort. The service was lackluster had to ask for equal for our tea salt and pepper and ketchup for our fries. For 50.00 plus for lunch I would have higher expectations for food quality and service the place was not very busy.

The prices sting a little but the food is worth it. As a vegetarian with milk allergies, I was surprised how many options I could choose from. The staff are very considerate and do their best to get you what you want just the way you want it. Even my sister, the pickiest 5 year old, was able to find something she liked. The wait is a little long, especially on the weekend it gets pretty crazy, but if you have ever had high quality and fresh ingredients, you know when it isn’t pre made. Bonus– they have a full bar with a huge selection.

My fiancé and I LOVE yard house. We are originally from Orange County so we we’re excited to find a yard house near by for us to go to happy hour every weekend. Unfortunately the last month that we have been coming here the service has not gotten any better. We always sit at the bar expecting great service… But no. It gets worse every time. It’s very upsetting because we had high expectations, especially since we are regulars. The food is always amazing I will say that! The customer service is what is missing at this place. I went there yesterday and the customers that were sitting next to us even pointed out how bad the service was. No one ever made eye contact with us to see how things err going or if my fiancé needed a refill or anything. Very disappointed.

Shelby — bomb
Firecracker wings — bomb
Ahi salad — bomb
Lamb burger — out of this world bomb!
Very nice Yard House! Will return

The service here is always amazing and the food is great the only thing that always bothers me is that there is always water marks on my silverware. You would think a chain restaurant with a high standing would pay close attention to that. Yesterday, there was actually food on my fork which REALLY makes me question if they even wash their dishes or just wet it. For that, I am unable to give a perfect rating, that is just unacceptable.

Came here for late night HH, hostess asks if we are fine with a table because no booths are available, we say sure.
Walk across the room, at least 7 booths are available. Lol really.
Anyways, my housemates and I came to release stress and get our minds off things as our house was burglarized couple days prior. Sadly, their wallets were taken including IDs.
Explained the situation to the manager, showed him the temporary issued ids, credit cards with pictures, and pictures of our old IDs. He says, «i can’t let you guys have it, you guys look too young.»
Seems like a little profiling if not discrimination against our ethnicity and genetics. Definitely didn’t handle the situation as a professional manager should have and definitely made our nights feel worse.
Food’s good though, service subpar, and night ruined.

I LOVE this place! One of my best friends always hangout here because of the awesome environmental feel. There is a ton of beers on tap which is great! We always try something new, and the service is prompt. The staff is always amazing and helpful. I usually order the fish tacos which are DELICIOUS! We will definitely continue to go to Yard House regularly.

Lexi was a wonderful waitress. Atmosphere was a good. Food was wonderful. They give you good sized portions & its hot & freshed when served. Loved it. Definitely a good place to go.

I remember going to the yard house back in 2000 — this place is always a good time. Great customer service and very quick to take orders and food came out within 10 minutes. The beer selection is never ending here. More drinks options the food The turkey burger was full of flavor I also had onion soup that was amazing topped with bread and cheese
My server was nice and friendly thanks Skye — and thank you Yard House for the great experience

This was my first return visit in about 2 years, as I was going to the AMC movie theater next door and wanted to grab a quick soup and salad at the bar, as the wait was 15 minutes in the regular dining room. Came in at 1:25 and did not get out until 2:05 and was LATE for the movie.
Why should it take them 25 minutes to pour a bowl of soup and make a salad? The French onion soup had a good flavor, but very few actual onions and a MASSIVE piece of bread folded over and stuffed into the top was discouraging to say the least. The chopped salad was fine and fresh, but had a lot of crunchy items in it (celery?)…
One other thing I noticed right away was the fact that the TV facing me had no captions being shown, while a couple others did. When I queried the female bartender about it, she said she was told by the manager that the captions are NOT to be used on any of the TVs. WHAT? Has this guy lost his mind, or was this a terrible corporate decision?
If there is no sound on the TVs it is MANDATORY to have the captions running within the picture or at the bottom so we know what is going on and what is being said by the commentators. Who wants to watch any TV with just picture only? This is just common sense, but something that apparently has missed management at this location… as well as at the nearby Famous Dave’s BBQ.
When I told the bartender that I thought the decision was «crazy», she said it was just one of many other things that were crazy at this restaurant. Sounds like even the staff have issues with the managers.

Love, love, love it here! Staff is always friendly & attentive, great atmosphere, love the variety of drinks & food. Everything tastes so amazing & presentation is great!

Came here recently and was pretty disappointed to be honest. The food was just meh. And I feel like we paid a lot of money for just mediocre dinner. Our service was fine, we sat on the patio and our waitress was very attentative to us outside. The patio area is pretty cozy and has a fire pit kind of thing with tv’s for watching sports. I also like how the patio is shaded so you don’t get fried by the sun. The food though. We ordered this really expensive pasta with lobster and it was super disappointing. The sauce tasted gross and all the crap they put in it just added to the blah-​ness of all of it. The lobster pieces itself tasted amazing, but there was like a couple pieces in the whole dish. We literally picked out the lobster pieces and left the rest. I could feel my stomach turn with the first bite of that sauce. An Alfredo sauce or something else would have been great, this sauce was weird tasting and not complimenting of the lobster. We also orders fried calamari which was good but a very small portion. I think we got robbed of calamari because we barely had any on our plate. I believe the cook was being stingy on the lobster and calamari that day. I thought the saying was «you get what you pay for»… Well we paid for it, but didn’t get it! Bummed out for sure. I’m not sure if we will be back.

Hungry?
Broke college student?
Well look no further. Come here for happy hour and your stomach will be very satisfied! I always order the chicken nachos but with fries instead. Their skinny cut fries are the BOMB. Chicken tenders and chicken garlic noodles are also solid choices. For drinks, you can’t go wrong with a mojito but sometimes it gets really sweet. Recently, I’ve been really liking the Juniper Fusion– tastes cucumber-​y, refreshing, AND it’s on the skinny menu ;)
Also good for big parties and closes pretty late!

This is a rarity as far as my reviews go because I try to stray from what I call «chain reviews», but I did have a decent experience here and I felt it worth sharing.
The first thing I noticed is that their menu has been completely revamped and much different then what I remember back in my roaring 20’s. It seemed like they put forth focus on meals vs. the normal finger foods which was a step in the right direction in my view.
For this sitting I decided upon the country fried steak. It was paired with some sweet potato pancakes and for me that short stack fell well… short for me (yeah the jokes don’t get any better). The pancake itself was really thin, but tasted really dry. On the side was a jalapeño infused syrup which was quite spicy, but did help put some moisture back into the texture of the pancake. The country fried chicken did save the meal for me. I found the breaking to be the saving grace as it coated the chicken without crumbling and the batter itself was actually flavorful (had a light mix of spice from what I could tell). The chicken was surprisingly moist, but I did find a piece that had gristle which I didn’t care for, but I can’t knock it with just one bite though.
All in all it was a good experience for me, but far from a wow factor. I mean sure I would be back again, but not by choice though.

I can honestly say that I really did not enjoy my experience here last night, which is difficult considering they’re one of our families favorite restaurants. My daughter and I came in around 7:30pm on a Wednesday evening, which is perfect because no game’s were on and thinking we’d get better service.
We took our time to really look over the menu. She ordered one of their beer’s on tap & me a glass of ice cold water with a lemon… yum
As a appatizer — the spicy edamama, Which she really enjoyed all by herself.
I chose a cup of clam chowder. Emeditly after the first bite I did NOT like it. It had a bad aftertaste. I emeditly slid it away from me.
She ordered their Tuna Poki salad, which she loved.
We both also ordered their Crème Brulee. Milk chocolate chunks on the bottom, and banana slices and the creamy custard with a perfect sugary crust on top. I highly recommend it.
I think what would of made my experience better is if our waitress would of taken the time to notice that the clam chowder had not been eaten /​touched and placed at the end of the table and she never questioned me if there was a problem with it because i didn’t eat it … I just wanted a low key /​quite night. I was NOT in the mood to approach her & start explaining that I didn’t care for my meal and to please allow me to substitute it for something else. she should of realized me as the customer will be leaving still hungry because I hadn’t eaten more than a bite… I was just Not in the mood to go down the route of explaining… I was hoping that she would just notice and approach me… That would of been greatly appreciated. I’ll just «Chalk it up to both of us not giving a damn tonight». Other than leaving still hungry… we’ll return.

I really enjoy Yard House! The Norwegian Salmon with wasabi mashed potatoes & ahi steak sandwich are my favorite things on the menu. I love how they offer the gardien menu, but I don’t like the taste of the chicken. The first few bites are good, but as you keep eating, it tastes really weird. Morning star «chicken» is better. It would be cool if they had a veggie burger on their menu.
They have a very diverse menu-​something for everyone. Service has not disappointed me and the ambience is really fun. I would recommend.

So for today’s lunch, I left the choice up to one of our hard-​working STRS. Tyler, decided upon the yard house. What can I say, he likes his pizza and salad lunch specials.
Considering how much rich foods I’ve been eating lately, It wasn’t a horrible choice for a lunch spot considering the sandwich and salad choices. I went with the Cesar salad and guac n chips. Quality and taste from other yard houses seemed consistent. Not sure if it was over tossed but the lettuce seemed a little beaten up and not crisp and the guac tasted as off they blended sour cream into it which always seems to diminish the taste of the avocado. You’d think w the fantastic guac they have in the numerous Mexican restaurants around town, somebody might actually benchmark it and move forward on a course correction, but sadly no.

End of the story, Taylor was happy and flirted w the waitress which seemed to be batting her eyes extra hard for him.
Ahhh to be young and palate-​less…

Yardhouse is one of the best happy hour places. I came here on a Sunday not for happy hour and still think it’s worth it. For two, we ordered the chicken frachos ($ 12.99) and onion ring tower ($ 9.95). These two are my favorite items here and will be more than enough to feed you even as labeled appetizers. If you come during happy hour, then all the more you save!

Yardhouse is okay, in all their locations nationwide. I usually only come here for their late night happy hour at 10– closing. Their chicken nachos or substitute the nachos with fries is the best item on their menu.
I recently came here as one final dinner for a buddy who is heading away from the area, and our group of err 26? had dinner here. Some of us decided to get drinks at the bar, though, some may had been roudy, the management team decided not to serve us alcohol — even to those who were not roudy.
I do understand in the establishment business you care for your customers, but I think if a large group of people have 2 – 3 roudy and the rest sane, you shouldn’t treat EVERYONE disrepectfully by thinking we are all roudy or intoxicated, when we werent.
The waitress was amazing, the food was mediocre and some people were not nice to us, making the reservations I ensured that, on the phone, we will make this as simple to the waitress as possible; instead, the restaurant made it worse on us.

I’ve been to many Yard House locations, but this one just happens to be right around the corner from my house. They always seem to have friendly service. The manager is always on the floor checking to make sure that everyone of the diners is having a good experience. Additionally, I’ve only had great things come out of the kitchen.
I love the fact that they have a whole mule section in there cocktail menu. this time around I tried the Hawaiian mule. Served in the classic copper mug, the Hawaii Neil has a nice pineapple twist to the traditional recipe. Another bonus is that they make their ginger beer in the house and, to tell the truth, it’s wonderfully refreshing and has a nice snap of spice.
This time around I’m on my usual spring diet, so I only got a salad. The good thing is that the salad was good enough that I didn’t feel like I was missing anything. I ended up at the barbecue chicken salad and it had lots of flavor. My only wish is that they would use a green or type lettuce and a little less iceberg. Otherwise, I didn’t feel like I was missing a thing.
If you have to go to a place that has a trademark after the name, this one is a good choice.
