    I was surprised on how good their food is! I’m especially happy that they have pictures of not only their food but of their drinks as well. Lavender drop is my favorite. Their chicken wings are huge! Thai pork chop is my absolute favorite meal there. The parking there is crazy. However, valet is only $10.

    This place was wonderful. First I would like to thank Virginia for her wonderful customer service. The restroom’s were very clean. Food was excellent and the water tasted pretty good. Yes water can taste terrible. Yard house offers a cool bar and seating is pretty nice. I definitely recommend trying them out.

    Normally I don't give out 5 star reviews; but wow does Yard House set the bar pretty high both in terms of quality food and quality service. From the abundance of beers on draft, to their wine selection to the food itself; hands down a great experience. I visited two days in a row, ordered the same dish and the experience as a whole was the same both days. The bar staff was on point and the kitchen made quick work of my order. I'll definitely be back for another visit. Thanks Yard House for delivering top notch quality. ☆☆☆☆☆ 1/31/2023 - Update Pretty disappointed in terms of service and food quality. I chose Yard House to host my birthday dinner; the waiter seemed bothered for whatever reason. Forgetting to take one of my guest's order. The wine was flat; I requested a glass from a different bottle which the staff fulfilled. Something just felt off with this visit, far from the norm I've come to expect from Yard House.

    This beer selection is amazing. I know everyone is gonna be like “no duh” but I didn’t know ok. They had like 90 something beers and you can do a flight of any of them. The apps are meal size and great to share. Everything was awesome. The garlic noodle appetizer was super satisfying.

    Drinks are very small for the price. And the $24 lobster pasta was honestly the worst pasta I’ve ever had. It had zero flavor. It had a shrimp in it that tasted like when you buy frozen shrimp and rinse it off in water to dethaw. They could have at least sautéed the shrimp in garlic and other seasonings? I asked for salt and it made it a little better. The “garlic pasta” had no flavor, the mushrooms had no flavor, even my husband agreed that it was gross. We ended up throwing half away and wasted our money. The crab stack was delicious, I wish I had just gotten that as my meal.

    First time experience was great! We enjoyed the fish and chips (house fries) while my picky teen said her chicken strips were the best she's eaten! That alone wins points from me... but service was most friendly and our waiter was quick to notice what we needed BEFORE we could even notice we needed it. Very enjoyable evening for our family with something for all of us to enjoy, even husband got his big beer!

    We had the best experience today! Our waitress Ashley was a gracious server and so helpful! She refilled everything and waited on us like we were her only guests! We will definitely be coming back! And please try the Maui pineapple chicken, it was amazingly juicy and savory... and not dried out! Thank you for a wonderful evening! ♥️ The Acevedo Family

    Me and my wife ate here during a business trip and upon entry it’s a wonderful atmosphere! We loved the low light at the booths, they had great music playing to make the experience better. The service was too notch and the food was fantastic! We order the pepper crusted filet, probably one of the best filets I have had in some time, we had drinks and an appetizer, nothing disappointed! Definitely at the top of the list for dinner, drop in and you won’t be disappointed for sure!

    The food was underwhelming. The chicken tenders in particular were so so dry and bland and tasted like freezer burn.

  • 3/5 Vanessa J. 8 months ago on Google
    First time to this particular location and it was just OK. What are your drink and buy the description it sounded like it was going to be absolutely delicious. I ended up with a glass full of pineapple juice and water so I got a Mojito instead and it was probably one of the worst ones I’ve ever had. Mainly because the mint leaves that were used in my drink were brown which made the drink very bitter. The waiter was fine, but the experience was blah.

    Solid place! Low key vibe with a great menu. One of the best smoked old fashioneds I've had. The lemon pepper wings had a great crispy texture and the spicy jambalaya and steak bowl were very well done.

    Even though short staffed our waitress Shelby did an amazing job tending to our table. Never had to ask for refills she was on it. Cleaned up dishes after finishing meal. Food was promptly brought out and hot. Excellent menu with lots of choices. Some dishes were a bit spicier than expected maybe they could ask the heat level next time. Over all excellent place and will be back again.

    It is a very lively spot with several beer and cocktail options. I'm definitely going back. Everything was great. There are televisions everywhere, perfect for NFL season around the corner. There is an item for every palate and dietary plan.

    This was my first time dining at Yard House. The restaurant wasn't crowded and had a pleasant and relaxed atmosphere. The tables were spacious, providing enough room to enjoy the meal comfortably, which I liked. The food was good, and I opted for the menu items with fewer than 700 calories, so the portions were not large but still sufficient. However, my son ordered the fried chicken, which turned out to be too tough and had an average taste, so he didn't enjoy it and couldn't finish it. As for the service, there was a somewhat awkward incident. Despite the restaurant not being busy and many empty tables around, the young waiter seemed overly eager to clear our plates. While he approached us to greet, I paused to listen to him and, during that time, he started to clear the plates even though there was still food on them. I had to awkwardly tell him that I hadn't finished eating yet. 😅 Then my son and I exchanged glances and couldn't help but laugh. Later, when it was time to settle the bill, I left a 15% tip, which is less than my usual 20% tip. My son jokingly said that the server probably lost some tip because he was too diligent in clearing the table.

    We came during the happy hour. It's a great deal. We enjoyed the beer, appetizers and pizzas, The service was great.

    Excellent happy hour menu. We really enjoyed the variety and value.

  • 4/5 Sharon R. 11 months ago on Google
    Always enjoy the ambiance but the noise levels can get out of hand. Last night was the worst, with a large table of high schoolers right next to the bar. Food is always good, overpriced, but food servers are usually great (we had Summer who was very sweet) and the location at baybrook lawn is great for families, date nights, or corporate hangouts.

    Yardhouse never fails me during happy hour. My family and I go hungry and leave very full and satisfied. The alcoholic drinks are very good and the food items are delicious.

  • 4/5 Carla Megan G. 1 year ago on Google
    Ordered an Ahi Tuna salad, and a Cosmic Martini. The drink was really good, the drink menu seemed endless but they also show you what to order to drink that pairs well with your food. The salad was good but I wasn't a fan of the dressing. The service was good, our waiter was nice. The place was clean and we went during lunch so it wasn't busy. We got to enjoy. I would recommend anyone to check it out.

    Its one of my favorite place to dine in. They stay open late in the weekend and they have some vegan options. Their happy hour is the best time to take advantage of. Delicious food and presentation. Portions are quite large as well. Love the ambiance of the restaurant. And its right on the outside of Baybrook mall.

    My Husband and kids really enjoyed this place. Nice clean and friendly atmosphere. Our waiter was on point. The food was hot Fresh and Delicious. This will be our spot. I’m inviting Family and Friends. It’s a A+ fa me👏🏽👏🏽

    Ally was our server. She was good. When we arrived the place was barely busy but as time passed it became packed. The happy hour special is awesome for the food but $2 off a cocktail = $10 for a drink. I enjoyed the wings. They were fried to perfection before being sauced 😋. The chicken nachos, chips and queso get a half thumb. The calamari was decent. My mango mojito was delicious.

    Great Micheladas , Great Service. Came here with the family for dinner and drinks, atmosphere was great and we had an awesome time, byfar they have the best micheladas around the area I was very surprised, the food was great and so was the service, will definitely be going back.

    This was our first time dining at yard house, and it was not worth the price. Our truffle fries were super cold and dry, The Mac and cheese was flavorless and the garlic shrimp and lobster pasta was over priced. It kinda taste like fancy Ramon noodles, our server Carlos was sweet but we still will not return and dine here again. Although the environment was pleasant and our alcoholic beverages were delightful! Still not enough to come back.

  • 5/5 Trisia J. 1 year ago on Google
    It was our first time dining at this establishment. I must say I enjoyed the Sesame Shrimp Noodles and the Edamame. I had the Cucumber Mint sparkling water(no photo) that was really refreshing. The service was really great. The atmosphere was relaxing and enjoyable. Recommended for those who want to hangout for two, gathering with friends, or dine with family.

  • 5/5 Gale W. 1 year ago on Google
    Ally was a very sweet server. She knew the food and drink menu without having to look at the menu. She was the greatest. We tried several food items. They were GREAT. The dessert was not too pleasing. We tried the Cream Brulee Cheesecake, the extra sugar granules was overkill.

  • 5/5 Beth S. 2 years ago on Google
    Oh my! This was my first meal in Texas and it didn't disappoint! I got the hot honey chicken (or called something like that)...it was so goood!! Spicy n sweet, fried to perfection and the sweet potato pancakes were delicious too. The bathrooms were not so nice or clean...but the food was excellent!!

  • 4/5 Josh K. 1 year ago on Google
    First time dining experience. Let me tell you the food was awesome. The spinach dip thing my wife always gets was the bomb. The salmon I got was great. Atmosphere was good, loved the fact they have tvs plaster everyplace to watch the games. Hockey was on which is great. Drinks come out at a steady pace. They don't hound you like most places trying to get you to buy another drink before you are even half way done with your current one. Will definitely be back again.

    Great wings and truffle fries! Service was good and so is the atmosphere for sports!
