Chicken avocado sandwich, Sweet potato fries, Cheese pizza
Angelina R.

Last time I had yard house it was years ago and all the way in California, but it was always my favorite as a kid and now I remember why. They do every dish with such refinement and culinary expertise that no matter what you order, you know it'll be good quality. With that in mind, the price is also super reasonable making this a great casual dinner option when you're looking for something a little more upscale while not being overly fancy-- coming here you know you'll still get some nice simple comfort food done well. In addition, the service was so sweet and personable. They were attentive without being overbearing and joyful without pushing it or feeling fake. There's a sense of ease and enjoyment about dining here and I'm so impressed by how the flavors continue to deliver!

Chicken Nachos

Went for happy hour enjoyed the pizza and poke nachos chicken nachos ok. Good for a quick bite

Poke Nachos

Yard house is the best place to go before a Red Sox game. This is a classic sports bar with lots of seating. It is always super busy, so get there early! The food was good for bar food. The fries were tasty, the chicken sandwich was good, and the nachos were great! All great stuff to split. The drinks are where this place shines. They do huge "half yard" drinks that are definitely worth it! So fun and pretty inexpensive given how big.

Bacon Cheese Burger

1st time reviewer, long time reader. Came in after visiting the Franklin Zoo with 3 hungry kids in tow and 3 adults in need of a beer on a Friday during the start of their dinner rush. We were not rushed, but taken care of in a timely manner. Questions were answered professionally and honestly (love honest servers). Our food was hot and on point. Crispy and delicious cheese curds (our girls demolished them). Not to mention our server Max was top notch. Gave us some great advice for first time Boston visitors and suggestions on places to visit and was very personable. 10/10 recommend.

Chicken Lettuce Wraps
Eva A.

Came here on a whim on a Tuesday night, to be honest, expected it to be more crowded. Ordered the chicken lettuce wraps to start, which were decent, though not the best I've had. The tofu or sauce added a mild mushroom flavor, and the wonton cup was difficult to break and was kind of bland. However it was surprisingly super filling! Next I had the grilled chicken avocado burger without Swiss, and the chicken was very juicy (or greasy? Couldn't tell) but had the tiniest bit of avocado ever. My friend got the Nashville hot chicken sandwich, said he did not enjoy. The chicken was thick but overly fried and way too greasy- the bottom bun was soaked through. Otherwise our waitress was super attentive and warned us about longer wait times due to new staff training, checked in on our meal, etc. Overall fine experience, unsure if I would come back but is a fine choice since they stay open late!

Adam was the best bartender ever, and he made our quick stop for a beer and bite fun and worthy of lingering for one more! We arrived pretty much as they opened for lunch and while we had our pick of tables, we opted for the bar so we could take in all the unique and interesting taps up close. Thatsa lottsa taps! Adam made some recommendations, gave us a couple of samples so we could decide and overall helped us navigate the selection until we all found something we liked. All the gmdood we ordered was great. My husband is STILL talking about the wings!

Game 4 finals has everyone glued to
Vicki M.

Yard house is the place to be for the NBA finals Game 4 Celtics! There was a line just to get inside around 7:30 and then we put our name down for a table and they said it could be an hour and half wait! We decided to go hang around the bar - which there was standing room only - at least they have a little counter there so you can order drinks there. We did so and waited and luckily after about 35 minutes our table was ready- whew! TVs everywhere perfect viewing from anywhere in the restaurant. It got really crowded as the game started. The games in a tough spot right now but that perhaps means there might be a game 5 in Boston....who knows! It's only third quarter things could still turnaround. I ordered the spicy jambalaya- my usual order - big portion. It was good and of course I have enough leftovers. The hubs got a burger which he really liked and a friend got the pork burger. For dessert the cheesecake brûlée was really nice - never had one - very creamy with the brûlée crust - yummy! For drinks I had the buzz-free mojito - I figured the whole place was buzzing so I didn't need any more ha ha! The hubs had the Hawaiian mule and friend got a beer (dogfish). Our server Sofia was nice and attentive. Never seen the place this crowded before. Lots of people near the bar and also near the tables. Overall great time at Yard house!

10 Crispy Traditional Wings
Dody E.

No way this should have a low rating. The food is FANTASTIC, the atmosphere is LIVELY, the service is FAST+FRIENDLY. What more do you people want? Anyone rating below 4 is not being honest. Perhaps the coastal elite continue their war on "chain restaurants". I say enough. This is an easy 5 stars. PS get the wings (lemon pepper, Korean chili are very good) or the poke nachos for extra delicious bites.

We walked in without reservations and they were fully booked for the night, but they do have bar seating and a couple of side tables where you can grab a quick bite from the full menu. The ambiance is a 10/10. The decor is insane in the best way. The red chandeliers are stunning, the bar setup is perfection, and the low lighting with the table centerpieces really ties everything together. Even the bathrooms were insanely beautiful which is crazy to say but it stood out. It's rare to find restrooms that are that clean and well-designed. The drinks were great. I can't remember the name of the cocktail I got, but it had red sugar on the rim and it perfectly matched the whole aesthetic of the restaurant. For food, I got the steak taco and the fish taco and both were delicious. We were just stopping by for a quick bite before heading to the movies , but I really wish we could have stayed for a full meal because everything was amazing. Hopefully we'll get the chance to come back again one day.

The menu covers enough ground that finding something worth coming back to is not difficult. The Kale Caesar is the standout order for me and delivers every time, well balanced and filling without feeling heavy afterward. The portions are genuinely generous across the board, and the option to build my own bowl gives me enough flexibility to work with whatever I am in the mood for. The ingredients feel fresh in a way that separates this place from most fast casual options at a similar price point, and the vegan and vegetarian options are substantial enough that they do not feel like afterthoughts tacked onto the menu. The staff at this location are consistently warm and friendly, which makes the whole experience noticeably more pleasant than your average quick service lunch spot. The line moves at a good pace even when it gets busy, which it does during the lunch rush, so arriving slightly outside of peak hours saves me some wait time if I am in a hurry. Seating inside runs on the tighter side and fills up quickly during midday, so coming prepared to eat outside or take it back to the office is worth considering on a busy weekday. Overall it is a dependable, quality option for a fast and genuinely satisfying lunch in the area.

It was really chewy and gritty. I got the eggplant and mushroom bowl. I am saying this as someone who loves eggplants and mushrooms, they were just ok. It was kinda goopy, and then being paired with the crispy rice it was just a weird mouth feel. As for the flavor- they drowned it in that sauce which overpowered everything. The price point is really good for lunch in boston, but honestly I wouldn't get it again.

One of us got the non-spicy broth, and she noted that she thought the spicy broth was better (and again, not truly spicy at all), so I'd just keep that in mind when ordering. I also got the truffle mac & cheese, which I was pleasantly surprised by! It was pretty good, and came with some sort of delectable crunchies on top which I was obsessed with. I haven't had much ramen since I became vegan, so I don't really have any other vegan ramen to compare it to, but it's certainly some of the best I've had so far.

Salty Pig Pizza: A pizza with the same name as the restaurant! Who was the genius who came up with the idea of ​​salted pig and beer caramel? It's brilliant! The salted pork appears to include Prosciutto di Parma from Langirano, Prosciutto Cotto, and Salcissia. Baking rendered the prosciutto's fat, which blends with the caramel to create a beautiful golden syrup that flows across the pizza's surface. The prosciutto was savory, oily, and tender; the minced salcissia retains its coarse texture and rich meaty aroma; the caramel was sweet and mellow with a honey-like sweetness, forming the top, middle, and base notes respectively. The arugula was slightly warmed, losing its astringent and raw taste while maintaining its crisp texture, helped to cut through the richness together with the Parmesan cheese powder. The crust was crispy, while the inside the dough was soft and chewy. The cooking time and seasoning were all just right, and the restaurant's proud wooden oven added a charming smoky flavor. Affogato: I had high expectations, but it was just okay. The espresso was too sour, and the vanilla ice cream couldn't balance it out. The almond biscuits had an overpowering almond flavor, and the flavor of plant-based protein was terrible! (Oh, this should have been a plus...)
