    Taco Flight
    Stephanie T.

    There's plenty of space to be seated but it can be a bit noisy. You order from the table. As well as pay from it. The staff were nice but not very attentive. They also took my order wrong. I got the flight of tacos, which was pretty good.

    Amazing cake for dessert

    What a fun spot! They have a crazy huge selection of beer on tap and you can order them in what looks like mile high glasses. I went for dinner with a friend in a Friday night and the place was packed! Despite the crowds the service was excellent! Opting for a healthy option I had the Poke salad, which was delicious, while my friend had the Bacon burger. I was surprised by the Oreo cookie crumble for a belated birthday celebration and it was divine! It's a great spot to gather with friends. I appreciated that they offered NA beer but they should expand their selection and I would love to see Noughty AF sparking and still wines on the menu.

    We've been to Yard House many times whenever my husband and I have something to celebrate or a special event. We truly love the atmosphere and the service here. The staff are always friendly, polite, and very professional. The restaurant itself is beautiful ,spacious, stylish, and very comfortable. We usually order the fried calamari, burgers, steak, and mac & cheese for our 4-year-old daughter. Everything is always delicious, fresh, and juicy. There was just one small issue today , previously the mac & cheese included chicken, but this time it didn't. Maybe the order was entered differently or the receipt was changed? Just something we noticed. Overall, we still had a great experience and will definitely keep coming back!

    Garage mango Hefeweizen
    Perla R.

    Great service at the bar seating area, I ordered the garage mango hefeweizen and it's good very fruity but not too sweet tasting. We started with an order of cheese curds those were crunchy & yummy, I also ordered a 3 taco plate with the birria, crispy Korean chicken & vampire carnitas it came with spicy rice and pinto beans it was delicious. We also tried the bbq bacon cheddar burger it was very good!

    HH Chicken Nachos
    Klariza F.

    I usually have a good time here for HH. I think it was just too busy. My friend was waiting in line to be seated. It didn't take long to be seated, but that was the first time I've ever waited to be seated. We got a booth. I like getting a booth. It's just so comfortably dark. We came during HH so we got a beer, espresso martini, chicken nachos, and poke nachos. My espresso martini was good, but they put too much cinnamon and nutmeg on top. It made me choke a bit. The chicken nachos are always great and such a great price during HH. I was a little upset about the poke nachos coming later. I'm so use to them coming at the same time as the chicken nachos that I thought it was strange. They were making so much of them all together is what happened. I was disappointed by the taste of it. It just tasted different to me and I won't be ordering it next time. Great HH price, but I would like to try other food next time.

    First time at this location and I enjoyed our waiter. Super friendly and helpful. We got the onion rings and lemon pepper wings for starters... the lemon pepper wings!!! O M G!! They were so yummy! I was sad we were sharing! ...haha. We all got the 20oz Steak and it was so tender. The food was really good at this location. I went with my coworkers after work lunch and we really enjoyed the atmosphere at this location. Definitely a great spot for beers and watching sports too.

    Happy hour menu
    Toby P.

    I really like spot for happy hour. Who doesn't like half off select appetizers and discounted beverages? It's nice to have a shaded patio to enjoy cold drinks and food on a hot day. I always get the poke nachos with sauce and Serranos on the side. It's been a bit since I've been and while the dish size has remained the same the amount of ahi has decreased (hopefully, just this visit). We also tried the lettuce wrap, which we agreed was good too. The Miguel's queso with chips & tortillas was good, but our least favorite of the 3. I'll definitely be back for the happy hour with friends as we all enjoyed it.

    I go to this Yard House with my friends all the time. I love that there's a really diverse menu. As an appetizer lover, I can always find something here that I want.

    Located front and center at The Shoppes at Carlsbad, the Yard House is my go-to for a chill time, great food, and tasty cocktails. I'm never ever disappointed with the service. The staff is always friendly. There's something for everyone to enjoy for lunch, dinner, happy hour and late night - known for its extensive menu. It's also known as the world's largest selection of draft beer. Their Happy Hour is the BESTEST...must say the happiest hours of my day :-) Do I need to say more? Just come to the Yard!!

    Oreo- Sundae
    Mella P.

    This was such a great afternoon lunch spot! We sat outside on the patio and the weather made it even better. The service was timely and attentive, and our server Nelly was upbeat and genuinely friendly. We ordered the garlic noodles, traditional BBQ wings, and the Oreo cookie dessert. The wings came out perfectly, just as delicious as they looked! And the dessert was easily one of the best I've had in a while. I'd come back again for all of it.

    Came here with my familiy amd loved it! We were able to get a table right away and the servers were nice and took our drink order quickly. We were sat at a booth which was pretty spacious as well. We ordered a few appetizers and were blown away with the size and flavor. I recommend getting the Korean Chili wings if you like spice! Our main courses were also delicious and well sized. We had to get togo containers for the excess. I definately recommend coming here.

    I always bring a book and sit at the bar. The staff is always friendly too. This place is perfect for hanging with the bros, a girls' night, or a fun date spot.

    Again, old hard noodles and no sauce, and we waited a long time for our food and it was not good at all

    Because it's YUMMY. Many "truffle" based mac n' cheese recipes use mushrooms (in this case, oyster mushrooms).

    To loud music?

    It's Average , but noisier than regular restaurants yes.

    What is the average price bill for 8 people?

    $10,000. But it's less if you don't order cocktails.

    It's an extra $10 on top of the beer cost.

Beet ketchup, The C Word (braised cabbage), a couple of cronic sushi rolls, and there was a special lemon creme brûlée. Everyone enjoyed everything they ate, including my almost 3 year old grandson (they brought out a specially sliced fruit bowl for him). They offered many choices for kids, but he just wanted fruit. Hope you had as wonderful a Mother's Day as I did. Yes. We appreciated eating healthy and not walking away stuffed but instead satisfied. They were selling plants.

The owner took our order and was incredibly friendly, helpful, and informative. He described all of the dishes and you can tell he genuinely loves his resturant and what he's doing there. At one point he mentioned that he's proud of the portions because he thinks a lot of vegan resturants tend to skimp a little. He was absolutely right to be proud. I had the French Dip and it was honestly one of the best sandwiches I've had. The stek was sliced thin and really tasty, the cheze in the sandwich was perfectly gooey (which is rare for plant based cheze), and the aujus was the real star. I've honestly had nothing like it before. It was also a really hearty portion and super filling. My wife had the Jambi sandwich -- a hash brown wafflle with fried chikun, sunflower swiss, seitan bakon between two pieces of french toast -- plus chili fries on the side. The sandwich itself was impressively big and definitely lived up to the owner's point about portions. We've both been vegan for about 10 years and always appreciate finding places doing creative food like this. We live about an hour and a half away, but we're already figuring out when we can make the trek back for another visit.

That alone should tell you where this is going. Veggie Grill offers a wide variety of fully vegan options in a fast casual setting. I am especially fond of the burgers and the protein plates, particularly the Beyond steak meal with broccoli and brown rice. The Beyond steak is a great addition to the menu. It's well seasoned, cooked just right, and has a satisfying texture that really hits the right note. The steak protein plate is a highly recommended choice. Another easy recommendation is the strawberry lemonade. It strikes a great balance, not too sweet and not too tart. Because they use real strawberries, it can be a bit thick, so I sometimes add a splash of water to lighten it up. Bottom line, Veggie Grill is a great option for both vegans and non vegans who want a satisfying plant based meal. Portions are solid, flavors are on point, and the quality is consistent across the board. Parking during peak lunch and dinner hours can be a bit of a challenge since the lot is shared with high traffic spots like Costco and its gas station. It can get busy.

The brisket taco was overstuffed and messy as well. I appreciate packing them full, but when they're served rolled it makes a handheld food item completely inedible by hand.
