    It was great seeing a place that has a wide variety of great food options. This is the 2nd time I've had edamame that tastes so good ! I'm going to try to find one in MY state. It was a great experience. I can't wait to do it again!

    Virtual Ordering menu
    Robert S.

    Stopped in here for their Happy Hour. The prices looked great on the menu and the selection was also very good. Many items were 50% off. When I got seated by the host, I did not get any server coming for a while. I then noticed the virtual ordering menu Ipad on the table, so I decided to order my Happy Hour item...Chicken Lettuce Wraps. I waited for a bit and still no one ever came to say anything to me. A bit later someone from the kitchen came with my item and placed it on the table. I asked if I could get a glass of water, he said, later....he never came back. I noticed a small Bell icon on the iPad, so I pressed it to get some assistance....that red light flashed for over 10 minutes and no one came to ask if I needed something. I finally flagged someone far away to get me a water..... When it was time to pay, I used the virtual iPad but it did not work, so I approached the bar area and asked if someone could run my card. The lady asked me who was your server...I said No One. I finally got a server to run my card. The lettuce wrap was salty and forgettable. It came on a fried wonton and some Bibb lettuce leaves with two sauces...not bad, but not great either...

    Orange Chicken

    Sports bar nestled at the 2nd floor intersection of the Copley Marriott, Copley Mall and the Prudential. Great space to dine or have a couple drinks while not missing out on any live sports action. Servers are accommodating and attentive. There's also a touchpad on the table if you want to put in an order in between the servers' rounds. Food is reasonably good and well-presented. The orange chicken rice bowl was really good, we enjoyed our selection of tacos (Jorean chicken and beer battered fish taco were great, and love that the birria tacos came with a tiny saucepan of jus), and ahi salad was refreshing. For a lower carb option, for the taco mix and match ( Korean chicken and Beer-Battered Fish Tacos), our server was able to sub in roasted veggies instead of rice and beans, and bib lettuce wraps instead of tortilla shells- satisfying without the guilt.

    KBBQ steak

    Yard House was conveniently located in the Copley Marriott on the 2nd floor. After arriving to Boston late in the evening we got a late night meal. We only had about a 10 minute wait for a table which was great considering the host told us it was a 3 hour wait all day long as this was the end point for the Boston Marathon. It made it really neat to be able to see alot of the runners here at the finish place. My friend & I both ended up ordering the Korean BBQ steak and subbing the fries for mashed potatoes. We started with cheese curds & wings, both were mediocre. Cheese curds were good but were a bit on the soggy side - I am also a bit spoiled as the ones we serve back home are garlic crusted so these lacked in flavor in comparison. We got two types of wings - buffalo & sweet chili. The sweet chili ones were better than the regular buffalo wings, nothing too special about these. The flavor on the steak was delicious and the potatoes were top notch. I highly recommend those mashed potatoes they were the best part of the meal. We were glad the restaurant is open late and had a wide variety of items.

    Food was fine but at the price point it's not above any of the great local spots near backbay Boston area. Owned by Darden, a major restaurant group. You can tell it's in that category of big business.

    Yard House is solid! A great option for large groups as their menus caters to everyone including vegans and their expansive drafts and cocktails are enough to keep everyone satisfied. Our experience was a later evening so it took a minute to flag down a server but they quickly attempted to rectify the situation and were pretty on top of it after that.

    Poke Salad
    Lena L.

    Convenient location right in Copley square. They have multiple huge TV screens for sports and a good selection for both food and drinks. The poke salad was surprisingly very fresh and tasty!

    Blue Bleu Cheese & Bacon Burger with Sweet Potato Fries
    Len L.

    Located in the Marriot Copley lobby, we got sat in the eating section which was vastly larger compared to the bar section. The menu had a nice selection to choose from and decided on gourmet burgers. I got the blue cheese burger with $1 upgrade to sweet potato fries. The burger was perfect for a medium-rare. Service was great and my glass of water never was dry. The area was loud but manageable. Overall the food was great and I would come back again. Cost is average for the food and area.

    Very disappointed in the food we ordered today. I ordered a margarita pizza. It came out with a huge chunks of tomatoes that made the pizza soggy and wet. It was actually disgusting to eat. Hubby ordered an Asian salmon, which would've been fine but again too much dressing and the salad was soggy. It's been years since I've been to a Yardhouse and I remember the food to be incredibly delicious but definitely not today.

    Kale Brussels Caesar salad and Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich
    Kristen S.

    Came here again last night as we are staying in the hotel and have a daily dining credit. Taylor E was our waitress and she demonstrated excellent customer service. I ordered fish tacos that were crazy spicy, couldn't eat them, and she was very courteous about it and understood. I really appreciate people who do their best and are friendly even when things don't go as planned.

    10 Crispy Traditional Wings with Buffalo Sauces
    William H.

    The food they serve is more of a bar food than restaurant food. But their menu is similar to TGIF or Fridays. We tried it as we had hotel credit to burn. It was packed when we went for dinner on Tuesday night. There was some private event along with MLB all stars and WNBA is in town. That made service very slow. Including ordering and getting refills. We ordered Buffalo Wings, Guac and Chips, Turkey BLT, and Fish and Chips. The Guac and chips were good as it tasted like Chipotle's Guac. The Turkey BLT probably the best of the bunch. Pile high with Turkey and a good amount of avocado and bacon. Both the wings and the fish and chips were a disappointment. Wings were not crispy at all and could be straight out of a frozen bag of buffalo wings. The fish were too heavily battered and oily. The tartar sauce tasted like out of a bottle from your local grocery store. Overall, nothing memorable. Maybe their drinks are good so these are just bar food.

    Stacked Turkey Club
    Melanie T.

    I frequently eat at Yard House before heading over to Back Bay station to catch a train home. I really enjoy the food and they always have pretty good service. Nice selection of beer, appetizers and a good happy hour. Be aware it's a loud sports bar so if you're looking for somewhere quiet don't stop here! One of my favorite sandwiches is the stacked turkey club. It's easily enough for two people and it never disappoints.

    Buffalo chicken nacho and poke nacho
    Kelly Z.

    I love yard house. I love their happy our 50% off appetizer items! Their appetizers are so big and so yummy! Lots of variety. The poke nachos is forever my go to! It's so flavorful and so fresh. What I love is that they use thin wonton chips! We also got their loaded chicken nachos, calamari, sliders, Buffalo chicken and ahi tuna. The chicken nachos were so loaded lots of topping and sauces to go around. The ahi tuna is so refreshing and the sauce is delicious. The calamari was very crispy and goes well with the tartar sauce. The Buffalo chicken was ok it was basic Buffalo chicken. Our server was super nice and friendly. She makes great conversations and made sure we got everything we need. I always love this place!!

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.

    Life Alive Organic Cafe is a plant-based café that focuses on fresh, organic meals made with…read morewholesome ingredients. While the menu is entirely vegetarian with many vegan options, it feels approachable whether you are looking for a healthy lunch, a filling dinner, or just a smoothie or coffee. We walked into the Back Bay location, which has a bright, inviting interior filled with natural light, plants, and plenty of seating, creating a calm atmosphere that feels more like a neighborhood café than a typical fast-casual restaurant. The design is modern and clean, with a warm energy that makes it the kind of place where you can enjoy a meal at your own pace, meet a friend, or even spend some time working. The grain and noodle bowls are the main reason to visit. They are built around fresh vegetables, whole grains, legumes, and flavorful sauces that make each bowl feel substantial without being overly heavy. We appreciated that every ingredient tasted fresh, and the different textures kept each bite interesting. The spicy peanut noodles are one of the standout dishes, combining chewy noodles with crisp vegetables and a rich, savory sauce that has just enough heat without overwhelming the rest of the flavors. The falafel is another solid choice, with a crispy exterior and soft interior that pairs well with the fresh vegetables and creamy sauces. Beyond the bowls, there is a good variety of options depending on what you are in the mood for. The menu includes açaí bowls, salads, wraps, soups, smoothies, fresh juices, and coffee, making it easy to stop by at almost any time of day. The menu also changes with seasonal ingredients, giving returning visits some variety while still keeping the café's focus on fresh, healthy food. Even if you are not vegetarian, the meals are filling enough that they never feel like they are missing anything. The café itself has a relaxing atmosphere that encourages you to stay a while. The modern design, abundance of plants, and comfortable seating make it feel much more welcoming than many grab-and-go lunch spots in the area. The ordering process is straightforward, and the staff were friendly throughout our visit. During busier lunch hours, food can take a little longer to prepare since everything is made to order, so keeping that in mind is worth it if you are on a tight schedule. The seating area stays comfortable even when the café fills up, and the energy of the room remains calm and focused. Life Alive Organic Cafe stands out because it proves that healthy food can still be satisfying and full of flavor. The fresh ingredients, diverse menu, and comfortable atmosphere make it an easy place to return to whether you are looking for a quick lunch, a lighter dinner, or simply a break from heavier meals. If you are in Back Bay and want a meal that feels nourishing without sacrificing taste, this is a café well worth adding to your list.

It was PACKED when I got there, so I understand what creates a long wait if you order in person. The space itself is very pretty and colorful which I liked a lot. The food. It was...meh. 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.

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.
