Do I recommend this place? Absolutely not…read more The brisket was dry as all get out. When the guy came over and asked how the food was, I told him straight up. He just gave me an annoyed stare--no words--and walked off. Comes back later with "moist" brisket and explains, "sometimes you get the fatty, sometimes the lean." Yeah, I get how brisket works. But that first cut was bone dry. Maybe ask before serving? Either way, moist or lean--it didn't matter. There was zero flavor. Cornbread? Cold and just plain bad. We tried the banana pudding... and honestly, it looked off right away. More of a clear-ish glaze instead of that normal yellow color you'd expect. Took one bite--tasted like straight chemicals with some vanilla wafers thrown on top. Absolutely disgusting. I don't mind paying for good BBQ, but this wasn't it. Do not go.

After looking over the menu I decided on the traditional with scrambled eggs and pork sausage links. The eggs were cooked to perfection; everything tasted well-seasoned and flavorful, and the potatoes had a nice balance of crispiness to them. Overall, service was alright, not too friendly, and it took a while for our server to come back to take our order, but the food did come out in a timely manner. The restaurant has a casual, comfy vibe with plenty of seating indoors and some outdoor seating on the patio.

I recently had to be in the downtown Glendale area - the Yelp machine recommended I hit up Blue Corn Cafe. There's some development / construction in the downtown area so parking is a little limited. However - I was able to snag a spot right along 58th Ave and get a good view of all the cute shops to check out at a later date. Blue Corn was surprisingly busy that morning due to hosting a Coffee with Cops event. I got the low down from a few of the GPD staff that they are consistently rated as one of the best cafes in the city, maybe even the West Valley. They have recently-ish opened up a second location in DT Mesa, which definitely fits their vibe. I was told the owner gets up early every day to bake - I love the dedication to his craft. Like many mom and pops, there are times when quantities are limited. So ofc I had to buy some baked goods to go for my work team! Their muffins are HUGE - like 2 -3 servings per *singular* muffin. I didn't know what I was getting into when I bought 6... hello carb heaven for us. I noticed a lot of sweet and savory options - croissant sandwiches, cookies, you name it. Definitely the muffins were well-enjoyed by all (PSL, lemon-blueberry, red velvet), and the general consensus was lemon blueberry as the winner. It's a small space with not a lot of seating options however there appears to be a back patio that might be shared with other restaurants. I couldn't get a view on my way out. Cannot wait for the next time that I'm in the area to grab more sweets!

We checked in around 6:30 and got seated about 7:30, so we grabbed drinks at Carousel and walked around while we waited. Clean bathrooms, good atmosphere, and our waiter Ed was friendly and attentive. He let us sample a few beers before ordering. The poke nachos were sooo good, and the spicy beef noodles, double pepper jack burger, and espresso martini were all solid too. Hard to choose when there's a big menu! Noodles were giving Trader Joe's frozen find but delicious. Nonetheless. Espresso martini hit the spot. Burger was juicy but 3 pickle slices aren't enough. Also my boyfriend water cup was dirty as hell. Waiter was understanding tho and got us a replacement no problem. Love Yard house!

Shortly after, your server who was the only one working approached us with a warm glowing smile, ,greeted us politely despite having food in her hands, immediately made us feel welcome. She was attentive, professional, and truly a highlight of our visit. I later learned that the initial individual was the manager, which was disappointing, as I did not observe her assisting the server or engaging with guest. The only reason I am leaving a 4-star review and not a 3 is because of the excellent service provided by your server. While the service from your server was excellent and appreciated, I hope future visits reflect stronger leadership support, as the level of engagement is what elevates a restaurant experience to 5 stars. Over all I recommend this place A Must Try.
