    Yard House is always a nice options for dinner. They have a plethora of beers on tap and they are always changing with the seasons. The menu has something for everyone, including tofu options that are hard to tell they are not their meat counterparts. The wait may be a touch long but, it is a great experience with delicious food.

    Love the consistency of a Yard House. This one was very clean and great service. Our group had the Chicken Nachos, Ahi Crunchy Salad, and Blacked Chicken Caesar. All delish! Sorry pics are only partial - forgot to take them when meals were delivered.

    I only write reviews if the experience calls for it. Rather it was extremely awful or absolutely amazing! In this case the entire experience was…absolutely amazing! Here’s why you should go nowhere else but here they deserve your business! The entire vibe from walking in to sitting down Is very upscale and pleasant. This is one of my favorite restaurants not only is the service incredible so is the food and the prices. Last night we ordered two entrees, two drinks and a dessert for $56. Talk about amazing prices every other restaurant increased their prices drastically which makes me not want to go out anymore, but I love and appreciate how Yard House is still very reasonably priced and the quality of food is unheard of. You could come here completely blindfolded and anything you try will be delicious. The only thing I wish they had was reservations. There’s usually only a 15-25 minute wait. I don’t mind waiting because there’s so many activities you could do walking around the area. This place is absolutely incredible and definitely FIRST DATE WORTHY! The pictures are from all of the times we’ve been here! The pictures don’t lie the food is delicious! Yard house you get a 100/10! Please don’t change keep doing what you doing I love it here! Open up more restaurants too if you can we would love one in Beachwood! :)

    I’m staying in the hotel next door for 8 weeks. I am here for work and flew, so this place has been my go to. It’s literally a 30 second walk. I’m almost done with training and will definitely miss their good food and service. I got Kori tonight for the second time and service was phenomenal, she is a rockstar. I wish I remembered my servers name last week because I’d really like to give her a shout out as well. She recommended the Thai pork chop, and chicken tortilla soup. Both was amazing. I even seen her tonight and meant to ask her name. My host that night was great too! If I find out either of their names, I will update later. I’ve not had a bad dish yet though! My steak has been cooked perfectly both times. Everything about my every single one of my experiences has been perfect! All of you guys do an amazing job. Big kudos to the kitchen. Keep up the good work!

    This place was amazing. The food, service, and atmosphere was on point. Our server, Patrick was very attentive to our wants and needs. He made us feel right at home. We ordered Chicken Nachos and Truffle fries for an appetizer. I highly recommend both. The Spicy Beef Noodle was his recommendation, and although it wasn’t very spicy, it was well flavored. My son ordered the Korean Ribeye, and again it was perfect. My wife ordered the Fontina Vodka Penne, and it wasn’t her favorite, but I thought it was tasteful. We will definitely be back again.

    They sat a us, a party of 7 quickly and with pleasure. Our waitress was very pleasant and attentive. The service was great. This dish, not so much. The pancakes were served cold, not intentionally. Then after they were warmed up (I’m thinking in a microwave), they became hard. I was able to substitute this dish for shrimp tacos which were amazing. The spicy rice that accompanied was not, but I was just happy to finally have something edible.

    We went to yard house on a day that it was -2⁰ and windy. I wouldn't have been outside if it wasn't for an appointment but I was very appreciative that they were, as every person that I encountered from the hostess to the server and the expo were so friendly. We didn't get any drinks but we did start with a Miguel's queso dip which was excellent. It was nice and spicy. Since I can't have gluten, they subbed veggies. For my entree I got the beyond burger with the mashed potatoes. The sandwich was good but the potatoes were okay. Nothing too flavorful, I got the spicy rice last time which were much better. Overall, I would say go for the happy hour and get the apps and drinks. Only a few of the food items are included.

    This was my first visit as I was in from out of town and we came in with 4-5 families from a 14U hockey team. I had the Nashville Hot Chicken and Pancakes just because it sounded like a fairly unique take on chicken and waffles, and it turned out to be fantastic, almost surprisingly so. Beer and cocktail menu was extensive and the waitress was very friendly and accommodating for our fairly large group. Would love to go back when I'm in town again.

    This is a nice big beautiful place to go to or try. they have so many different beers on tap and a very big menu. I love that they have Chimay on tap witch is what I get every time I go 😆 there spicy edamame was very good 👍 I highly recommend this place. To hay have a big bar with lots of seats and it's wor to the wait if there is a waiting list.

    They set us a party of 5 really quick. The food was great started out with apps such as the chicken nachos and four cheese Spinich dip, then onto our mains I had the 20oz steak with the 32oz half yard beer. Steak was cooked to perfection really good. As for the beer just hit the spot. A little bummed out by asking for another drink and the waiter forgot but other than that good food as well as music.

    Absolutely amazing! Our waiter got a big tip from us. He was so attentive and helpful. Great personality. If you are looking for either a romantic dinner for two or a a classy dinner with family this is the place. Not only is the food to die for, but the service is so fast. We didn't want to be out long and were so tired after our movie we just wanted something quick. We decided on yard house because the foods always amazing. They got us appetizers, drinks, entrees, and dessert in 45 minutes. We were so happy. Ask for Patrick M next time you go for an amazing Job well done!!. We had recently went to a different restaurant and the service wasn't so great, so being able to have a breathe of fresh air with Patrick's customer service was the best!! Can't wait to go back again and again. Also bring back the avocado eggs rolls yard house haha!!!

    Seated right away. Hostess was nice. The waitress was good when she finally made it to our table to get our drinks. I wanted rice but they were out so that was extremely dissapointing. But I ordered the pineapple chicken, which was good. The salad is a salad. Being put on the spot to choose another side, I choose fries that I didn't eat. I was too full with the chicken. I loved the tablet with the pictures of every item.

    Went to a 4pm movie then strolled over here for dinner. Walking in the place is very vast and has a nice modern dim lit decor. Hostess said it would be 5-10 mins so we sat at the immense bar to wait. Took about 10 mins for bartender to finally come around and greet us and hand a drink menu. Finally figured out what we wanted. Waited...waited then we were paged for our table so we left the bar with no drinks. With this being Sunday and semi busy I figured we would be seated at a quaint comfy booth for dinner. Instead it was a bar height high top all of 6 paces from where we were at the bar and 4 paces from the busy front door traffic. Hostess said nothing else was really available so we settled cause it was getting late. Waited another 5 mins for water then another 10 for our drinks finally! Waitress was nice. I feel the place is understaffed behind the bar and for waiting tables. Casual long walks back n forth for the staff feels like it takes a while. With the ambient lighting and decor my wife and I thought the mix of loud music and crowd acoustics make it feel like a fancy cafeteria. Drinks and food were good but the place was just a upscale, huge scale bar! Hostesses up front were blurting out song lyrics about the rain outside that was a little annoying and un professional. Looking for more refinement when paying premium prices.

    We are frequent flyers at Yard House and have never had a bad meal. The other day we stopped in during Happy Hour and I’ll tell you this… we left Happy! We had Poke Nachos, Miguel’s Queso dip and the Chicken Lettuce Wraps, all of them were delicious! Looking for a little adventure, we selected the Lavender Drop Martini and the Sunset Sangria. Everything we ordered was a feast for the eyes and a delight to our taste buds!

    OUR SERVER WAS AMAZING!!!!!! BEST SERVER EVER!!!! If you go here make sure to give Brian a complement. The food was also so good. The sauce with the whiskey salmon was sooooooo good. The atmosphere was also great. Everything was neat and clean. It also wasn’t super crowded and felt very spacious. Also the people and customers in general were super nice. But the best part was definitely Brian. I’ve never had a server be this good and have such a positive vibe and energy. Truly the best server ever. We will definitely be back here soon! GREAT JOB BRIAN!!!!!!

    First time here. Six of us were seated right away - it was around 430 on a Saturday. Nice variety on the menu for both food and drinks. Everyone (age range three to 62) enjoyed their food and beer choices. Server was great - no complaints at all. When we left there was a wait so if you're going around dinner time then get there by 430. We'll be going back and I think we'll be regulars!

    We attended a cooking class at this place for my daughter's birthday. It was a lot of fun, we learned something about cooking, and we got to eat what we cooked. Fantastic evening, we would do it again.

  • 4/5 Mike J. 3 months ago on Google • 144 reviews New
    Great place for dinner and drinks. The food is always delicious and the cocktail menu is on point. My only issue is like so many newly built restaurants the open concept and warehouse style ceiling lead to a terrible echo and make the restaurant terribly loud.

  • 5/5 Allison S. 4 years ago on Google • 140 reviews
    Gave Yardhouse another try when I went with a friend and I was pleasantly impressed. We sat at the bar and were greeted immediately and told about happy hour specials. We had a movie to catch but everything came out in very good time! We had a bleu burger and chicken tenders and they were honestly delish. I'll come back to try other things.

    First time here & am very happy I went here. The food (Lobster garlic noodles) it was to die for. My server (Quion) was outstanding and very attentive. Great place for lunch or dinner.

  • 5/5 Matthew G. 5 months ago on Google
    Excellent service with compassion and professionalism. Spicy garlic beef noodles: The dish had excellent flavor, started out with a sweet taste and then a pleasant heat for the finish. The only downside to this dish was the meat, I would have used brisket or even tenderloin rather than boneless short rib. The meat was very tough, hard to cut and hard to chew. Awesome selection of craft draft beers.

    Service excellent The atmosphere was relaxing The chicken wings were just ok Korina our waitress was very friendly & attentive Family friendly restaurant with tons of different food to choose from. I can’t get over the food selection/options they had on their menu. Their mock tails were amazing. My family and I had an amazing time and we will be returning soon. I highly recommend this restaurant to everyone who’s looking for a fun family friendly spot to eat at.

    My husband and I have been going to this location for our date nights pretty regularly the past 2/3 years. We love this place and always have a great time. Our last time we had an issue with our seat & the staff were extremely kind and accommodating. The manager was very friendly and we really appreciate his efforts to check in on us. Food is always amazing and I have never been disappointed out of the several dishes we’ve tried. Definitely recommend checking this place out if you haven’t been yet. — Editing this to add that I still rate this place 5/5 stars. Just had their Nashville Hot Chicken sandwich and it was the BEST hot chicken sandwich I’ve had. Usually these sandwiches get pretty greasy and soggy but Yard House’s was so crisp and had no extra grease. It was soo good. Can’t wait to come back!

    Poke Nachos were fantastic. Philly cheesesteak was exceptional with the exception of grizzled steak. I don’t mind fat but 1/3-1/2 of steak wasn’t edible. Great flavor though. Steak sauce was excellent.

  • 5/5 mikey M. 2 years ago on Google
    A well put together restaurant, has a very classy feel to it. Lots of booth style seating, and a large menu. There was also a large beer selection as well as a bunch of cocktails.

    Me and my Wife's 1st experience with YH was amazing. Our Waitress, Tre was a breath of Fresh Air. Food was Awesome. Atmosphere was awesome. We will definitely be returning. Side Note: I had the Korean BBQ Cheese Steak, Sweet Tater Fries, and a Long Beach Tea.

    Clean, modern, great outdoor seating. Portions are larger so easy to order the Cilantro Lime chicken and share between two people.

  • 5/5 Greg S. 2 years ago on Google
    The Yard House was great. The bartender was one of the best I’ve ever had. Plenty of good gluten-free options and the old fashions were made perfectly. Cool vibe. Highly recommended.

  • 5/5 Christina M. 2 years ago on Google
    We had my sons 1st birthday party there in their private dining area. The food was awesome and at a great price. Huge servings! The staff was very accommodating and pleasant! Everyone who came is still giving us compliments for the party. If we ever have a future celebration, this will be my first choice. Thank you to all the staff that made this day extra special for us!

    I was in town from Colorado and took my mother out to lunch at this location. Mom is older and has Alzheimer's. The hostess at the front seemed to catch on right away and seated us in the perfect location. I was impressed. Then we met our waitress. I was blown away by her professionalism and compassion. She addressed mom respectfully and appropriately. She was attentive, yet not annoying. She made the experience of taking my mother out very pleasurable. Mom loved the food (our waitress suggested a solution that agreed with mom's needs). My food was delicious. If you like tomato bisque, you must try theirs. The music was not really mom's type and was a little loud (not the best for mom's condition) - I get it, they are appealing to a younger crowd, but that did not spoil our experience. I just about gave up on customer service and interacting with good humans through Covid. This dining experience restored my faith.

  • 5/5 Bradley K. 1 year ago on Google
    The food is awesome and the service is amazing. Especially Nick who is one of the bartenders. This is my second time here and my last time was weeks ago. He actually remembered who I was and what beer I had last time. I am new in town and Nick gave me some great places to check out live music, which I love. Also the environment is fun and the music they have playing is awesome. Lots of tvs for when football starts. The filet is phenomenal and the sliders are incredible!

    This was my first time here. Yummy meal and great, friendly service! Food tasted fresh and warm. I really liked our server April! I also appreciated that if you have leftovers, they bag them for you! ☺️

  • 5/5 Mickey A. 1 year ago on Google
    Highly recommend this place! I have to admit I didn’t have high expectations for this place but the food was very good! I’m vegan and I was pleasantly surprised by their vegan options! I also love cider and was surprised to see that they had three ciders on the menu! The customer service received by the servers and hosts was very superior which made the experience very enjoyable! Overall very pleased with this place and would come back everyday if I could! Pictured below: vegan beyond burger and fries; vegan avocado toast (no feta cheese), and vegan gardien bowl!

    1st time there! Amazing experience, the atmosphere was amazing, delecious food and drinks🍸and great service. The waitress was very nice and quick! We were celebrating my mom's birthday, and the waitress got her a cheesecake at the end even though they were about to close the restaurant. I would definitely come back! 👌
