It was my bday- they blessed with with brownie with ice cream- delish. Service was great- Sage was so attentive! And the ambience is nice and dark. Loved it. read more

Went back tonight, purposely to this location over others, even though it's farther away. I hope it was an off night, but looking at the recent reviews, I'm not sure it was. Immediately when walking in, there was a female server that moved all the chairs to clean. So we literally couldn't walk to sit. She gave no f*cks. She continued cleaning and ignored her tables as they walked up to her and asked for help. I debated leaving at that point, and should have, because the night only got worse. Some other recent reviews said, I don't usually write bad reviews, and as a server, etc, and I relate to all of that. I usually even avoid reading reviews about service. However, it can really make or break and experience, and I won't be returning to this location, or at least not on a Sunday, for a very long time. The female bartender was a straight up b*tch. Ignored us the entire time, and the nice couple next to us. She didn't ignore the old white guys that walked in or her regulars. The straw that broke the camel's back, was when we asked for more salsa for the tacos, and she replied they didn't have salsa. We responded, well the salsa on the taco, and she replied oh, you mean red sauce? Sarcastically. Food was good. Horrible experience. Going to Brea next time, and hopefully a line cook won't be arrested in front of us as well. read more

I don't frequent Yard House often but, when I do I feel like I always leave conflicted. The service isn't amazing but the servers are all personable enough that I think I overlook it. The food is good but, I think I the price point causes me to discredit it a bit. The ambience is always loud as expected but, sometimes it can be overwhelming. This visit was during their Octoberfest, and of course we ordered their giant pretzel and stein of beer. The stein is an additional $15 on top of the price of the beer. You get to keep the stein and your presented with a card that allows you to come back for unlimited $5 steins until the end of Octoberfest (which if I remember correctly is the 27th) Pretzel was good, the beer cheese was ok but, not as flavorful as I remember. Additionally we ordered a couple of appetizers (truffle fries and chips and guac) both were good but, I was a bit shocked at the portion sizes. White cheddar burger was juicy and really good, fries that came with were also fried well done as requested. Overall, a solid option for a social gathering/dinner, a bit pricey but, dining out is going to price regardless nowadays so I don't fault the restaurant for that. Irvine Spectrum location will always be my favorite, if you're in the area, this is a solid Yard House to visit. read more

Came here with a group of 12 on a Saturday night. We called ahead of time and they prepared the outdo patio with us - with heat lamps! Waters came quickly and food was delicious. I ordered the ahi tuna sandwich and it was amazing. Tender and flavorful! My friends ordered an array of dishes including burgers, tacos, and pastas. Everyone enjoyed the food and it was easy for us to split the check a few different ways at the end. read more

Here because they serve food past 10! We were starving and went to a local bar that kitchen closed last night. They told us to come here and it did not disappoint. We were sat quickly and the menu has so many options to choose from. My husband ordered aCoors light and I ordered a Cosmo. The first Cosmo I ordered came out tasting better than the second. For appetizers I ordered the firecracker shrimp which I finished in minutes. For entrees my husband went with the Korean BBQ sandwich & I played it safe with chicken tenders and truffle parm fries. Everything was delicious and we were stuffed half way thru. Our waiter was very attentive. It was close to 12 and people were still coming in to sit at the bar or eat. I was eying the dessert menu but didn't want to over due it so I just ordered a cappuccino which was perfect! I would def come back here for late night food. read more

This was our second time at the Yard House in Costa Mesa, and sadly, it was a really disappointing experience -- all due to the behavior of our server. We were a group of three adults and two little girls (ages 4 and 10), seated around 6:30 PM. Our server (dark hair, didn't catch her name) came to take drink orders, and things started off on the wrong foot. My brother-in-law and husband ordered first, and while our granddaughters were still deciding between water or something else, she rolled her eyes. I let it slide. When she returned for our food orders, my brother-in-law asked a simple question mid-order about whether something was included. She immediately seemed irritated again, and rolled her eyes a second time. I politely asked, "Are you having a bad day?" Her response? "No, it's just my face. Are you having a bad day?" Extremely rude and unnecessary. She also got our drink orders wrong. My husband ordered a yard drink, and I specifically asked for mine to be in a glass -- they still brought me a yard. I had to return it because I didn't want or order that much. It just added to the frustration. After taking our order, she sarcastically said, "Everything OK? Would you like anything else?" in a clearly mocking tone before walking away. I didn't want to make a scene or take time away from my family, but this server clearly didn't want to be there -- and made that our problem. If she wasn't in the right headspace to provide good service, she should have taken a break or stepped away. This experience really soured what should've been a nice evening. read more

Yard House menu and food never disappoints! Their diverse menu offers something for everyone, and I appreciate the numerous gluten-free options. I tried the buffalo wings for the first time, but they weren't my favorite. my friend thoroughly enjoyed his meal. The location was pretty, located on the top floor of a shopping plaza. Our server was friendly, and we were seated right away. read more

Had a variety of options which is good if you have a big group with multiple tastes. Lighting is just the same, can't see the menu and dark enough to make you feel drunk without drinking. Wasn't the busiest on a Sunday night but yet we waited 20 min for our food and another 20min after we finished eating for our bill. Maybe there was more going on in the background that we don't know about. read more

The food was amazing! The service was good! Although at the time we went, it was some kind of baseball or soccer team in there, which they were sitting like right next to us, and kind of stood like by our table and tal But I would definitely go back.

Came here for the second time in one week to give it a second chance at redemption. First time, we sat at the bar and the male bartenders were just not 100%. They took their time and were very slow. Left a bad impression. So we came back again, this time w my husband and same friend, but this time we sat at a high top table in the bar. It took a long time for anyone to greet us. Finally we were greeted by JAZ, a nice server that had to experience the same we did. Well looking around, the place was relatively dead for a Saturday night. Our drinks and food took FOREVER to come out and not all at the same time either. My drink came out late, all warm already. Our friend Brian's food came out last and way after ours. For how slow this place was the timing was hella lacking. The bartenders were observed from afar, once again, slow slow service. Cleaning one glass for 2 min while watching the football game on tv. The other bartenders were hiding on the other side. No drinks were ever made our poured from our view side. Then it started to pick up and tables and guests were not greeted within 30 secs to 1 min of them sitting down. More like 2-3 minutes, and that's at the bar. Well, the chips and queso dip had hard cuttings from the chile stem they failed to remove and it stabbed and hurt my tooth. Don't think I will be coming back for any other times, at least to this location. read more

Yard House - Miguel's Queso Dip - New American Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

Ryan is a great server, his service is great, works hard and the food was great!!! Will be coming back to this location.

**October 2024: Friday Afternoon** I generally don't visit bars often, but I no longer have a tv and a friend suggested Happy Hour here to enjoy the World Series, so I obliged. The Yard House is located at the Triangle Square and there's ample parking in the structure. There's also several bars on the same floor as the Yard House, so maybe I'll come back to check those out. Happy Hour Deals: They have 1/2 select appetizers so I decided to enjoy a poke nacho (regularly $18, HH: $8). Patrons can order with a waiter/waitress or on the touchscreen menu. It's really cool actually since you can split the bill or pay by item, so no more trying to calculate how much you need to venmo others! There were several tvs around the restaurant so it's a great place to watch a game and during my visit they turned up the volume so we could hear the commentary. Overall, it was a good experience and I would come back to enjoy a game! read more

We came on a Friday night as a group of five. The wait for outdoor seating was about 25 minutes, which wasn't bad at all. We ordered the steak, lobster garlic noodles, and cocktails--all delicious. The atmosphere was welcoming and cozy, and our server was very attentive, taking the time to explain everything on the menu. Definitely a spot I'd come back to again soon! read more

Yard House - Poke Nacos - New American Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

Food tastes good. Go during the day and it's not crowded. The ambience is more subdued. Thank you.

I've been going to Yard Houses far and wide, city to city and even some in different states! Orange County is currently my home base, so Yard House Costa Mesa is the location that I have been frequenting the most. Service is usually great, 98% of the time. There have been 1-2 times where it could have been more attentive or accommodating but that's usually not an issue. I love this location because it is HUGE. They have a large bar seating area, many booths, and tables all around. They also have outside/balcony seating. This means even on weekends, I can usually walk up and expect no more than a 5 minute wait. Yard House is very consistent, I know exactly what I am getting every time. My staples are the Chicken Nachos ($15.99), the 20 oz. Bone-in Ribeye ($40.99) and the Four Cheese Spinach Dip ($15.99). The Chicken Nachos, are from Flavor Town for sure, and they are LOADED. As for the Ribeye, my level of doneness is medium rare, and it is done excellently every time. The mashed potatoes that come along with the ribeye are parmesan prominent, DELECTABLE, even without gravy. Four Cheese Spinach Dip? Need I say more? If you don't like an ooey-gooey, chunky, flavorful, cheese dip, we CANNOT be friends lol. Definitely an American spot, although there's lots of Asian and Mexican fusion. It doesn't mean it is bad, it just has its own flare! Portions are sharable, so order accordingly unless you're like me and love leftovers. THEY ARE OPEN LATE. 7 DAYS A WEEK. My clan and I are usually the after-work crowd, so Yard House really works for us, we like to come around 8pm. We order drinks and a few dishes to share, this process happens about every hour until 11pm. They've got good music, dim light and chill vibes. It is just such a great spot to unwind, catch up and enjoy for a couple of hours. I'll be meeting up with you soon, Yard House! read more

Really good cheeseburger combo ($16) here! 1/2 pound beef patty is huge! Get this with their garlic aioli sauce on the side. You won't regret it. I got the onion rings which were ok (I've had better elsewhere) but my friend got their truffle fries and they were super good. Service was friendly and efficient. I think yard house does so well because of their large beer selection and great happy hour prices. Would be back if in the area. read more

Good food with a nice variety and friendly service . Cool bar ambiance and nice decor.

Management - needs to address the poor service and stop gauging customers by adding an 18% tip to the total on a bill for two people.

Terrible!! Terrible!! Terrible!! Denise sat us down and for 10 minutes we were ignored, no water no hello, no nothing. Tom sings a good John Denver song.
