Great lively atmosphere. Noisy but fun place to watch games. Large selection of food and drink. Family, singles, large groups. Fills up fast for happy hour. Will go back again. read more

The Yard House always has exceptional service and the offering of beers is amazing! Every dish I have had is exceptional. They also have great happy hours! read more

Went with a large group. Really bad service. The food is ok. Maybe the beer is good. Otherwise there is no reason to go there.

First time at Yard house and it did not disappoint ! Gerlyn was amazing & we will be back !

I had a wonderful experience with a service named hali! She was very knowledgeable with the menu and was very attentive. I got the gardin orange chicken... so delicious read more

Enjoyed the service and the food but music was way to loud couldn't even even have a normal conversation.

Food was good. Just ordered some apps and beer. Next time will try the full menu. Friend and I had the guacamole and chips, truffle fries and deviled eggs. Truffle fries were amazing wow so much flavor. Atmosphere is great, really love the outside patio and seating inside is fantastic. Our server was cool will be back and try some new items. read more

Came here for the first time with my daughter and it was fantastic! I ordered mac and cheese and spinach dip. They have vegetarian chicken option which is so good. Server was very friendly too read more

Very good food, great service great west coast beer selection and bar is solid! Nicely done!

Beer was okay. I love local beer and their selection was mostly just the big guys. Food was great though! The queso was amazing

Located on the cusp of Carlsbad & Oceanside, the Yardhouse infuses unique culinary soul in the heart of the bustling Westfield shopping center. This fine establishment offers a cornucopia of appetizers, entreés, local craft beers, and exquisite cocktails. While the selections are extravagant, the service is what makes this restaurant even more enticing. Mauri was second to none. Her poise, tact, charm, and beauty were equally as impressive as they were flattering - needless to say, we were floored by her presence and grace. We will be back, and will be requesting Mauri every time. We suggest you do the same! read more

I used to go to the downtown San Diego Yardhouse for lunch regularly so was super excited when this one opened in Carlsbad. Went for a really early dinner at 5:00 on Friday. It was so noisy our server (who was great) couldn't hear our order. And we couldn't have any reasonable conversation. The food and service were very good, but when my ears ring after leaving, it's just too noisy. I had planned on bringing a group next week but am going somewhere else. read more

We went there for my Husband's birthday dinner. Celebration. They were SUPER accommodating and welcoming and the service was fantastic!

Went for the soft opening. The food was amazing. The service was spectacular. Our waitress Rochelle was fantastic. Had a blast. Definitely a place to check out! read more

Food was simply amazing. We had a great server who we felt like we had been friends with forever. We were able to taste beer before ordering which was helpful. He suggested the Nashville Chicken and we were not disappointed! Our food and beer was really good but our server made it that much better. read more

Let me just say that Autumn rocks . We had a difficult person in our group and she was so patient and kept a great attitude the whole time. We will come back just because of her. What a asset And a great personality too. Jamie is awesome too as our server her patience really added to our great dinner that could have gone bad. Thank u to all at yard house . read more

I wasn't very pleased, first impression was a big thing. They literally took about 30 minutes just to get us our drink, waitress kept messing up our orders. When we got our food we didn't get any utensils we asked for second drinks that took another 20 minutes. read more

I have mixed feeling about the Yard House in Carlsbad. We were told there was a 45 minute wait, it took an hour and 20 minutes. The food was great the service was good at first. We recieved the bill gave a credit card the charges came back much higher then the original bill. Tried to get our waitress, then sent out a different waitress to a different table. We talked to a different waitress and asked to see then Manager. We waited about 15 minutes then asked again finally a manager came out and he had an attitude. He said he would fix it. Again we waited. He sent out a different wattress with the Bill. Another manager came out we explained to her the problem She gave a discount and apology. We ready did appreciate how it ended but it took 3 hours total time. read more

I have been anticipating going to the Yard House. My Aunt had her 81st birthday so perfect time to go. There were four of us and none had ever eaten there. To say the food was a disappointment is putting it mildly. Sister order the fish and chips. She let me taste it after she had eaten part of it. If it had been me I would of sent it back. It was the most inferior grade of pollack ever. My daughter ordered the Mediterranean lamb burger. She said it tasted gamey. Aunt and I ordered the beef dip sandwich. It was satisfactorily but not something that would make me crave it to come back. Would have been improved if the horseradish sauce had more zing to it. The waitress was good which is what salvage this to a two star rating. If it haven't been my Aunt's birthday I would have addressed some of the issues. The worst was the fish and chips hands down. Total disappointment for how much hype this place gets. All four of us gave it a thumbs down. read more

Tried this place a few times, never during a busy hours, and have never received good service. We always sit at the bar for a mid day drink and app on our day off and we wont be doing it here. The service is so slow. The bartenders sit in groups with the servers and gossip while ignoring your empty glass. read more

Hostess said it's full service at the bar; this was not our experience. They were "out of" ahi sashimi app (at 3:00p)!! We had to ask for napkin and silverware and then for salt and pepper. We asked that the Fox station on the screen in front of us ( there are numerous screens viewable from every seat) be tuned to the Olympics. It took 4 requests and 25 minutes for that to happen, although barkeep said "ya, no problem" at the first request. Finished plates were left sitting in front of dinners (not just us) with no regard from the staff grouped in conversation at the end of the bar. Bottom line: customer service training is overdue for this shift's wait staff. It's unlikely we'll be back, or be able to recommend to others. Too bad because we really like the movie theatre next door, but there are lots of dining choices to try nearby. read more

Tonight I went into yard house and what started out as a semi-negative experience was completely changed by our server, Rhomel. To begin with, Rhomel was very polite, the perfect level of attentive without being pushy, and answered all of our questions about the menu. I am vegetarian and decided on the Gardein (their vegan meat alternative) barbecue chicken pizza. the food was out in a matter of minutes, however my friend and I noticed that the "chicken" was startlingly realistic, only to find out that it was in fact real chicken. When we let Rhomel know, he was not only extremely apologetic, but let his manager know, took it off of our bill, had them remake the pizza for us, and added on a free dessert. It was exactly the right was to handle the situation and his service was impeccable. The restaurant and food was average at best but I will return simply for the lovely service & the peach cobbler was great! read more

I'll start with the very minimal positives : The amount of beer on tap is insanely awesome and the clam chowder was good ... The decor is cool too The negatives: Going on a Saturday night was our first mistake; The wait was a full 45 mins (they don't take reservations); Trying to get a drink while you wait for your table was very irritating and took forever; No where to sit and wait so you have to stand or wait until someone leaves the bar stools, then get in position to swipe it. Bartender's were stressed out and not friendly at all (mind you it was only 6:30 pm); After finally getting our table (for 6), they stuffed us in the corner booth, very uncomfortable and impossible to get out; They don't offer "salsa" with their chips and guacamole appetizer, we had to ask for the "pico de gallo" that they serve on the tacos for the substitute - the waiter never even offered this option to us - just simply said"Nope we don't have any salsa". The meal I had was horrible (Halibut @$25.00), it came with mashed potatoes (cold), soggy asparagus and bok-choy all mounted on top of each other - it was a horrible presentation of this dish. 10% of our table of 6 were satisfied with their meal(s). We have been gong to the Yard House in Palm Springs for years, as well as the Irvine one and never have had an experience like this. Let's hope this is just growing pains for the newly opened restaurant and they learn from this. read more

We loved this place! The food was phenomenal. There are so many things on the menu I can't wait to come back and try! The staff was also very nice. Since the restaurant is new the food took a little bit longer to come out but we didn't even notice because the ambiance in the restaurant is so awesome. Since it apparently took longer our waitress brought us a free appetizer and dessert! The chef also came to the table afterwards and apologized for the little delay. We were thoroughly impressed. I hope this restaurant keeps the quality of food and service that we experienced last night! 5 Stars and we are already planning our next visit. read more

Always love the Yard House. But!!! The bar here is really slow. I'll rate again next time

Came in the other week with my friends for happy hour. Emily gave us amazing service, explained the complex beer menu and recommended the fried Mac and cheese to us. Which was amazing! She kept up with our large party and had a great attitude, will be back for sure. read more

Great addition to the Carlsbad area. Been to this location a few times. Great service, Bee and Lexi are awesome. Beer and food were great. Would definately recommend this restaurant. read more

My birthday dinner was celebrated at Yard House Carlsbad. I was impressed with the ambiance, the plate presentation and the staff. It was crazy, of course! It just opened in late December. I dined again last Saturday night, with friends, and it was fantastic. We are all longtime Carlsbad residents and welcome Yard House and it's offered dining experience. I applaud all of team for working diligently to work out the kinks. The Nashville hot chicken, jambalaya and Poke nachos are delicious. Expect to be flexible on your wait. Believe me it is worth it. It appears to be the place to be. We will be there again soon. Bravo Yard House! read more

This was my first eating here. Met a friend for lunch right when they opened at 11am. Not at all crowded, but it was a Thurs. I ordered the Vampire Tacos & they are fabulous! Service was good. I'll definitely go back. read more

Me (vegan) and my husband(meat eater) favorite spot! The Gardein options are incredible. Huge menu. I always bring my own vegan ranch. They have the biggest beer selection EVER! Service is always super pleasant. I've heard it gets quite busy but we have never waited more than 10 min for a booth. We usually go weekdays after 9pm, or weekends even later. I love that they are open late read more

Honestly a little disappointed. I have heard multiple things since the yard house has been open and wanted to try it out. I ended up receiving horrible service. Drinks took almost 20mins to get and food about an hour. Not to mention appetizers came out 2 mins before our food. Food was all cold. Chips and crackers were both stale. Our waiter was a little rude and didn't seem like she even wanted to be there. The overall look was amazing and the food was pretty basic. read more

Went to the opening and everything was great! Brynn was our server and she was very friendly and knowledgeable. Food was amazing! Will definitely go back soon! read more

Love the food, music and service. My favorite dish is the brussel sprouts with sweet potatoes! Yum! Our server Giselle was stellar- I appreciate her attention to detail and follow through. I Will definitely be coming back!! read more

Had the privilege to attend " friends & family ' night at YARD HOUSE. Food was delicious,prompt service and super friendly staff. Our waitress Gerelyn was very pleasant and attentive to detail. Thank you for the positive experience. read more

It was our third time in this place. First couple times we had a great experience. But this time was completely different. We arrived for Happy Hour before 6pm. Waitress came up and was taking our drinks order. We told her that we have one more friend coming in a minute, she was parking her car, and that we would like to order for her as well. The waitress said: "No, I can only give you one drink per person", and that your friend have 3 minutes before 6pm to order from Happy Hours Menu, after 3 minutes it will be a different price!!! I could not believe it! I asked if could order 2 drinks for myself and she said with the straight face that I can only order one drink!!! Were in the menu its says that you can only order 1 drink!!! We never had service like that before. We came for a Grand Opening of this place, and all previous experiences were great. Last time the server told us that as long as we here before 6pm we can put in our order, and don't worry about anything, they gave us time to choose, not rush. This time, the server was completely unprofessional and rude. Not only that, but when she was telling us what drinks they had, one of our friends order what she said, and when they brought her different drink, they said that drink was not existing on the menu! How they expect to keep guests happy! Horrible service! They need to hire nice and friendly employees, so they don't ruin people's weekend. read more

I had a really good time going to yard house for the first time! the number of beers seemed overwhelming, but our server Gizel broke down the menu in an easy to follow way. I have been a vegetarian for 2 years and really appreciate the variety of meat-free options (get the gardein orange chicken!!!!). I will definitely be a regular customer here at YHCB! read more

If I can give this location negative stars I would. I just had dinner there and I am having the worse stomach pains ever. The food was the worst food I have ever eaten at a Yard House. The Temecula location is and will continue to be my go to. My steak was really undercooked, the spinach mashed potatoes had huge chunks of spinach that were slimy and bitter I almost choked on it, and the broccoli was over cooked. That was honestly the worst steak dinner I have ever had. My son had the spaghetti and meatballs and the sauce tasted like nothing all I can taste was pasta. I felt bad for my son for making him eat that. At first I thought he was just being difficult but when I tried it for myself I could not believe the lack of flavor. We left the entire plate. And just an FYI the Al Pastor tacos were so gross the meat had no flavor and had chunks of fat in it. It really shouldn't be called Al Pastor because it didn't taste like Al Pastor. You can't just throw some pineapple on a taco and call it Al Pastor. It's safe to say I will never be back. The funniest thing was a manager came by and asked "how's the food tasting" and before we could even answer he's like all good thank you guys enjoy your dinner and walked away. Like no man the food is disgusting, and I am not enjoying my dinner. Sorry this review is so long I'm just salty because it was my birthday and this ruined my night lol read more

i loved our waitress. a true and rare pro.i had the pork chops.i think they did a great job of not over doing the meat.comfortable cool vibe

Well, before I got their attention. I sat at the bar for a good 2 mins. Next to the register, close to their collection of glasses for their drinks! Needless to say they were close to me .... the people on the other side of the bar (what you would call a bartender)kept serving the people on each side of me, until I stared down one of the tenders and she finally acknowledged me. Didnt say sorry for the wait or By this time I was already irritated almost ready to walk out and considered talking with management. But didn't feel up to pointing out faults and lack of attention to new patrons. I've been here before and had good service. I guess it's up to the individual servicing and how much pride they take in their profession. I would expect for the prices they charge..... one would have good service. Now you are probably thinking it's busy.. Nope! The bar is not close to half full or empty.... depending now you see it. :) Since I've been writing this. 3 different people, including a manager came by to see how I was doing. So giving a 2 star. Hopefully, if I do come back it will be better. Keeping fingers crossed if not... lower star rating... read more

We were really looking forward to trying this place out before heading into a movie. We arrived at 5:05 and figured we would take advantage of happy hour since their menu looked good. We were informed it would be a 15 minute wait. No problem, plenty of time. By the time 5:55 rolled around, we were going to miss happy hour. I was unhappy with the fact they were prioritizing larger tables which arrived after us. By larger I mean 3-4, and we were a party of two. When we left they said they were busy with reservations, and they could seat us shortly outside on the patio. When we walked up it was open seating in the patio, if we wanted to eat outside we would have chosen that option when we arrived. We chose to wait 15 minutes to eat inside because it was freezing outside. When I called earlier they told me they don't take reservations for parties of less than 6 people. We may try going back but we definitely won't rush back. Ended up going to Dave and Busters. read more
