    Lots of empty tables but apparently they didn't like my table selection.
    Rick M.

    Just walked in to have lunch after seeing a commercial recently. Sat myself in the bar area at one of the high tables and a server walked over and looked unhappy that I seated myself....she approached and the first thing I asked was....is it ok that I sit here? She replied....is it just you? I said yes.....she then looked around the restaurant....so I said.....I didn't see any smaller tables so I picked this one.....she then replied....there are smaller tables but we'll go ahead. I stayed for about three minutes and felt uncomfortable so as I was getting up another person approached and said is anything wrong....I said it appears the other server is unhappy that I selected this spot to sit and it made feel feel uncomfortable so I'll just find someplace else to have lunch.....she replied....ok. Strange interaction from the first server. Too bad....I won't bother them with my business in the future.

    An excellent dining establishment offering competitive prices, vibrant atmosphere, and engaging entertainment options.

    Came here Saturday at 630ish and wait wasn't too bad. But the place got packed as soon as we sat down. Our server Zach was very nice and friendly. We ordered mozzarella stick and it came out pretty fast. It was pretty good with marina sauce. Margarita was refreshing and good! It took little longer for entrees to come out but steak was pretty good. Mashed potatoes were definitely from powder. Chicken tenders were crispy and good. The four pasta was descent. We will definitely come back again.

    I don't write Yelp reviews lightly, but The Side Yard absolutely deserves the praise…read more From the moment you walk in, you can tell this place is something special. The atmosphere strikes that rare balance between relaxed neighborhood charm and thoughtfully curated design. It feels intimate without being cramped, lively without being loud. Whether you're meeting friends for brunch or settling in for a long, unhurried dinner, the space just works. The food is outstanding. Every dish feels intentional--fresh ingredients, bold but balanced flavors, and presentation that elevates the experience without being pretentious. You can taste the quality. The menu manages to be creative while still delivering comfort and approachability. It's the kind of place where you start planning what you'll order next time before you've even finished your plate. Service was equally impressive. Warm, knowledgeable, and attentive without hovering. The staff clearly take pride in what they're serving and genuinely want you to have a great experience. Hidden Meadows is lucky to have a spot like this. The Side Yard isn't just a restaurant--it's a destination. Five stars, easily. I'll absolutely be back.

You can either close out right away or keep your tab open. There's bar seating with TVs and also patio seating available. It has a cute, comfy vibe that was welcoming. We had the Classic burger, Chicken Caesar wrap, and a side of Parmesan garlic fries. Everything we saw coming out of the kitchen looked great. We can't wait to come back and try the wings next time. My only complaint is that their burgers, sandwiches, and wraps are $15/$16 and are à la carte. At that price, I think they should come with a side.

We ordered the classic burger with avocado and jalapeños and the mushroom Swiss with avocado, both cooked perfectly and packed with flavor. The ingredients taste fresh, the buns are soft and toasted just right, and everything comes together exactly how a great burger should. Even the fries are excellent--crispy and seasoned well. The staff are always friendly and helpful, and the whole place has a great atmosphere.

They have a good selection of beer, milkshakes, and drinks. You order at the counter and they'll bring the food to your table. It's hard to find a burger place with all my favorites: an egg, bacon, and avocado. The bacon was crispy, the egg was medium and wasn't too runny, and the brioche bread was a little sweet and fluffy. They use angus beef for their patties. You can also split your fries which I love! I got to try the onion rings and sweet potato fries. I wish the sweet potato fries were crispy. They were more on the soggy side. The onion rings batter was a lil thicker than I like. The batter overpowered the onion. We also got the Cajun wings to try which was nice and crispy! They give you a few sauces on the side so you can dip it. I got the ranch which was so good with the wings, fries and burger. The milkshakes are pretty delicious! We got the classic vanilla one. It was a pretty thick shake so you know they use legit ice cream! I also liked the peach lemonade. I would check this place out if you're in the area!

Reminds me a mini Dave and Buster type but more chill and vibes. Definitely a place to hang out with your friends and co workers. We ordered two drinks: sparkling paloma and prickly pear margarita. It's definitely not out favorite and it just taste alcohol or too diluted . We drank it just to drink it. For food we ordered chips and guacamole, truffle fries, buffalo hot wings, Brussels sprouts and a classic burger with a beer. Overall, food is decent in your typical American sport bar food. If k have to pick my favorites out of the stuff we ordered, would be the truffle fries. Even with happy hours pricing.. we spent about $120 on appetizers , two drinks and two beers. As far with the game, I wish it was louder or have better speakers inside. As we walked out, we realized outside speakers is louder than inside
