Been here multiple times. Just LOVE this place. I have never been disappointed. It's in Legacy place so you can catch a movie or do groceries/shopping. I haven't had trouble finding a parking spot here. Good for couples and also for groups. The ambiance is really good. Slightly expensive than the usual places in Boston. My husband usually orders different beers and he likes them. I tried the El Picante the very first time and I'm hooked to it. So I just get the same drink every time! We usually get the tower of onion rings, truffle fries or the tofu lettuce wraps. I love the tofu filling!!! It has much better flavor than the one at Pf changs. I also love the different sauces that come along with it. For main course, we get a veggie taco that's not on the menu. I also order the Gardein BBQ Chicken Pizza. I like the pizza coz it has some Asian flavor which is different than the usual pizzas. My husband liked the taco the first time he got it. I wish they could let us substitute one of their usual tacos with a veggie option. Like take out the meat n put mushrooms or avocado. The service is usually good. If we go with friends, we have to wait but it's worth it! Overall, I would recommend this place.The only reason for not giving a 5 star is because they are not flexible on changing their menu to accommodate vegetarians. I agree they have a menu designed for it but most restaurants are ready to make changes. read more

My first return after nearly three years and I can confirm that the Yard House is certainly consistent. I would classify it as "modern sports bar": an abundance of corrugated steel, and dim lighting, and massive televisions looming in every corner, victorious "hardy har har"s coming from team-clad twenty-somethings. It's loud and a little pricy, but a sure thing for great service, great flavor, and loooooaaaadddssss of beer options (beer in teeny, medium, or half yards!). FIELD GOAL: Despite the propensity for beer-n-beef, there was a menu surprise right around the corner: a decent selection of gluten-free AND vegetarian ("gardein") options that AREN'T salad! I was pleased with my gardein chicken sandwich selection (lettuce, tomato, and a light sandwich spread) and it actually re-heated nicely the next day. FUMBLE: CAUTION!!!! The "SMOKED PINEAPPLE" beverage is a fraud. Menu description: del maguey "vida" mezcal, malibu pineapple rum, house citrus agave blend, fresh pineapple. ACTUAL flavor: mildewy elderly cigar-smoker's basement. BLECH! To our waitress' (Stefanie) credit, she HAD suggested against the order, but I figured why would they include it if sooo many people have sent it back? MISTAKE! DISGUST! Fortunately, Stefanie didn't mind taking MY beverage back and replacing it with my much enjoyed French Gimlet (hendrick's gin, lillet blanc, st. germain, house citrus agave blend, orange bitters). It's decent and good for birthday parties for that Patriots fella in your life, but not the kind of place I'd rave about. Clean, great service (which you PAY FOR $$$), and a pretty good menu. read more

Great beer selection, expansive menu, but has that fake chain atmosphere, and is just way, way to expensive. And forget trying to have a conversation on a Friday night. But if you prefer to eat at a mall, and Olive Garden, Applebees, and Chilis all have a wait, go for it. read more

Nice place, but crazy busy.. we came here on a Thursday night around 7ish and the place was packed to the max. we had a ten minute wait and whats even better is they gave our table away. place is huge tons of space but we were kind of close to other ppl since our booth was giving away we had to sit at one o the tables in the middle kind of. so everyone was hearing everyones conversation. I only drank huge beer menu and they separate it by flavor/taste so it helped out a lot. beers were around 6-7 bucks for a pint not to bad. the foo i thought was a bit on the pricier side, if you get apps get the snacks instead cheaper and you get quite a bit. the entrees looked good (i didn't eat) and from what my friends were saying they were very pleased with their meals. overall a nice place to far out of the way for me and way to much traffic going through that place for my liking. read more

This is a solid mainstream bar for beer lovers everywhere, but don't discount the bars up and down route 1 in the area! However, the yard house features unique craft beers from a variety of breweries around the world with 100+ offerings on tap! Try the piraat - you will not regret it! That being said, a lot of the entrees are priced higher than their worth, but I have never had a dish here that I was disappointed by! Yes I am a repeat offender here, thoughI would not consider myself a regular. Honestly, the menu as a whole is above my price range, however the taps and about a third of the menu are perfectly affordable for me. I recommend all the burgers, especially their Surf and Turf burger, which is reasonably priced for a burger that just so happens to have lobster in it! Yum. Also, their Mac and Cheese Squared, as well as their nouveau take on Tomato Bisque and Grilled Cheese - both of which are unique and delicious takes on comfort food. The variety of food, and beer at this establishment is something that cannot be passed up. This place is best experienced with a group, friends in a group of 4-8 is honestly ideal - everyone gets to sample someone else's choice, and the establishment can easily accomadate the numbers! read more

I'm pretty surprise to see that so many people don't like this place! First of all, that draft list! Amazing! So many great choices and at mostly good prices. A nice, big bar with friendly bartenders, too! The menu is also HUGE! Everything you could be in the mood for. Burgers, tacos, pizza! Also, if you're a vegetarian, you'll love this place - lots of veggie options plus fake meat! There's a whole section of fake meat dishes! I was blown away! I've been here three times now and have always enjoyed the food. It's not mind blowing, not the best food I have ever eaten but it's well priced and doesn't disappoint. The beer is the main lure of this place to me but the food is definitely a few steps up from bar food so if you want to have some good beers, it's a great choice. Service has also always been great - friendly, attentive servers, even when I came here with huge groups the first two times! read more

(3.5 stars) I'm a fan of Yard House. It's a great venue for a large group, and the service has always been decent. The servers are well-trained and willing to please their customers. I have been here a number of times with both small and large groups. Some items I've tried from the menu include the following dishes: -Appetizers: SPINACH CHEESE DIP ("baked with feta, jack, parmesan and cream cheese served with crispy flat bread") CHICKEN NACHOS ("spicy pinto beans, cheddar and jack, red and green sauce, tomato, cilantro, onions, guacamole and sour cream") LETTUCE WRAPS ("stir fried, smoked tofu, pine nuts and green onions with three dipping sauces and choice chicken, tiger shrimp, or shiitake & portabella mushrooms") BLUE CRAB CAKES ("with mango papaya chutney, passion fruit beurre blanc and tomato oil") -Entrees: MARGHERITA pizza ("oven roasted roma tomatoes, roasted garlic, mozzarella and fresh basil" SEARED AHI STEAK ("seared rare, spinach, swiss, tomatoes, caramelized onions, peppercorn aïoli on grilled rye") I like the food at Yard House. The quality does match the higher prices, but I believe that you pay for the medley of food, atmosphere, and hospitality. They have the world's largest selection of draft beer, and I find that to be an enormous perk because you can always choose a beverage to your liking. Dedham's location is a full bar that is situated in the middle of the restaurant. A setback for this great location is that they do not accept reservations...so if you do come here with a large group, be prepared to wait! For my "Nacho Average Reviews" list: 3 stars...their nachos are served on a very large platter with balanced ingredients; however, the chips can be slightly soggy, and in a large group, they get cold quickly. I would order them again, though. :) read more

I wish we could give half stars, because Yard House falls right between 3 and 4 stars for me. 4 stars for the amazing beer selection. Pretty sure they actually have somewhere around 100 beers on tap. Being able to try a new beer, each time I visit, is just awesome. Right around 3 stars for just about everything else. Food is alright. Service is decent. Personally, it feels a bit pricey, for what you get. Most times I've been there, it's quite busy and loud, which doesn't really bother me, but may be a negative for some people. read more

Good Tunes and Good Munchin inside this Chain Restaurant. This place does chain right. Their food is fresh and creative and well, not cheap. I was in Dedham at Legacy Place and had a choice of hitting up Met Bar, Aquitaine and couple other places. But once I saw the neat exterior and interesting name of this place and then rocking tunes pouring out (oh, and the mentioning of one of the largest providers of beers on draft) the Yard House had me! A Truffle Fries, BBQ Chicken with Smoked Gouda, Onion and Cilantro Pizza and Shipyard Pumpkin Ale later... I walked out a happy lady! Sister in law had the Crab Cake Hoagie; Husband had the Roast Beef Dip Sandwhich... both loved their meals equally. I will be back... and the menu also stated they are opening a location in BOSTON read more

Great, great customer service. A++ for your excellent customer service yard house. From the hosts all the way to management. Located at legacy place Dedham, next to showcase cinema,where you can either dine in or out this restaurant/bar is a must. There is ample parking and it's free. (Free parking loveee it. Makes me all tingly inside, knowing that there's free parking) My friends and I went during the day where select appetizers and pizzas were HALF OFF. Score! We ordered turkey sliders, fries, spin dip, bbq chic pizza and I think the chicken thai pizza. Great portions and delish. For the turkey sliders it comes with four and I guess in the process of getting the sliders to the plate one didn't make it, so we got a free order of sliders to go, and apologies from hostess to waitress to management. Great hospitality I tell ya. The pizzas...finger licking good. Now the reason why you get four stars instead of five yard house is because (1) your french fries are skinny. Not a fan. Felt like I was eating nothing :(. (2) the chips for the spin dip I guess are house made, and aren't that great. like just throw in some tortilla chips thanks. (3) The music playing did not suit this restaurant at all. like I like to hum and dance when I eat. I did none of that. AND the whole time we were sitting there we kept wondering what we were smelling. Something foul. Turns out the table smelled. Like they used a dirty rag to clean the table off. Any who B+ in all for Yard house! I'd go again read more

Great place to meet after work. We got there around 4 (yup we left work early) and the place wasn't crowded. They had happy hour specials which were good, the cheese pizza was the best, the sliders were just OK (they don't ask how you want it cooked) and the onion rings were good too. The beer menu is overwhelming! I couldn't decide so I settled on the Rose Garden which was great but it was $9 for a pint. When we left at 8 the place was packed. Not the best in Legacy Place but OK. read more

Solid place right here. Date night here with the wife a few weeks ago. Brutal heat out, super humid so we thought we'd escape here for a little bit. Sat down, ordered drinks and told the waitress we wanted a slow dinner. She was totally cool with it, told us to order when we're ready etc. Ordered some appetizers, she let us do our thing. Delicious chicken nachos, little light on the guac but I get it, avocados are expensive. Little while later, we ordered our mains. Terrific dinner. I've yet to have a bad experience at this place. Wait staff is attentive, patient and gives you space. Have never felt suffocated here. A+ read more

PROS: 160 beers on draft and humongous portion sizes. Try the beer sampler or if you're daring try the half yard. The taps are nicely arranged all around the bar. Nachos are great. CONS: Very popular and must come here early...or on the weekends expect to wait an hour. It gets very crowded and sometimes the wait staff will take a while to get your food. read more

I've been here a few times and while I haven't had a bad experience, it's never been anything overwhelming. I do appreciate the service and the fact that they let you sample the hundreds of beers they have on tap. When they didn't carry Abita, though (even though it was on the take out menu), they didn't have any close suggestions for me, and it sort of felt unapologetic that they had nothing similar. the food here is definitely tasty but the portions are weird. My taco plate came with two tiny soft tacos and a huge mound of rice. i could have done without all the rice and definitely with one more taco! prices are sort of high but at least the food is quality. for dessert we ordered the s'mores brownie- it was chocolatey, marshmellowy goodness. not a bad place for dinner with friends if you're at LP, but expect to wait a while if you get there any time after 6. read more

Had a wonderful dinner and dining experience last night at the Yard House at Legacy Place in Dedham. The food was delicious! Our wonderful server, Takiya was so gracious and knowledgeable. Lovely!! Terrific evening in every way. Already looking forward to the Yard House again. read more

I was surprised by this restaurant. We sat at the bar on a Sunday night. It was pretty busy still. We started with the Spicy Tuna Roll appetizer. It was not sushi, rather a stack with edamame. We both really enjoyed it. My husband had the short rib ravioli and I had street tacos. Both entrees were very good. The bartender was attentive without being overbearing. We were very happy with the experience. read more

Worst experience ever. Ever. Loud, poor service, packed with people (but certainly that won't last long as it just opened), cheap tasteless food (and drinks) at ridiculously high prices. If you go there to eat you can't help but walk away feeling like you got hosed. It's as if they're so excited by the beer options that they forgot to pay attention to the kitchen and the service and the ambiance and the seating and....you get the idea. In this economy, Bostonians (I hope) are smart enough to take their business elsewhere - even within Legacy Place every other option is better than this one. This place will close in 2 years or less unless they make major changes in both food quality and the management. read more

So I went here with family for father day, of course there was a wait, but that was expected. The good thing about this place is while you wait you can shop around the many different stores Legacy Place has to offer. Its NOISY, so dont go there expecting a romantic dinner with your significant other. Its perfect for family or groups, or whatever...We sat near next to the kitchen, which i liked because you can hear all the commotion of the cooks going on. I'm not a drinker especially not a beer drinker either, but the bar looked way cool! and ive also heard from friends that thier drinks are good. The food was great! Everyones food was great actually....the service was superb and i def will go back again...most likely tonight lol A+ great customer service, great food and great ambiance :) read more

I'm with four other guys and they're boozing it up and running up a tab, and this place has the balls to charge me $3.45 for a cranberry juice. WTF?! We finally sat down to eat, and have to admit the food was good., But it took forever to get. Service is slow, very slow. After we were done it took forever to get our check too. read more

Came here on a Friday evening around 9pm. Requested a table for 3 and waited about 30-35min. It was crowded when we arrived, so the wait for a table was understandable. This Yard House received fewer stars because of the service once we were seated. The overall crowd began to settle so we didn't understand why everything took so long. Ordered two apps and 4 entrees. By the time our calamari and slider apps came out they were both cold. We still didn't receive napkins and utensils (which is usually given when the party is seated) and since our wait or didn't check in on us until we were done with our apps, we ended up eating with our hands. Another 20 minutes passed before we got our cold wings and pizzas. The wait to get our meals boxed and our check was also another 20+ min (and by this time the restankurant had significantly died down). Aside from the terribly slow service, the food was very tasteful. The kung pow calamari is def a plus!!! All and all, particularly because of the service, yard house Dedham was an "eh". read more

I LOVE THE YARD HOUSE!!!! This place is the place to come to at 10 pm on a weeknight....they have an incredible late night menu and half price apps.. The creativity of the menu is really astonishing...they have a great selection of tons of different foods. Beer list is obviously incredible! But whats more incredible is the staffs knowledge of the menu and beer. They are trained properly! I would recommend this place 100x over Legal C Bar, that place sucks. Try the beer sampler and the poke bowl! read more

Jam packed, so people obviously like it. Very guy's guy kind of place. Great beer list. Nice to have 3 glass size options. Are you kidding me with the large size option though? Awesome if you're missing your kegger college days? If everyone at a table is drinking these, the server should honestly give someone yellow caution tape to put on the car that will be driven home. If you don't want to talk to the people you're out with, this is your spot. Ridiculously loud, dungeon dark and plenty of TVs to turn your attention towards. We've tried the Yard House a few times -- here and at Lynnfield (always at the prodding of my husband, hmm...) But this was last time. I don't have a sensitive stomach but this meal sent both of us racing to the bathroom. Never again. Tasted ok but terrible results! Based on tonight's experience I'd give a 1 star but based on other experiences that were probably a 3, I'm rounding this to a 2. Next time we're driving on Rt 95 and hungry, we'll pass. read more

Very attentive service! Could not have asked for more with our visit. We left a restaurant for issues with the waiter returning to our table so we were very happy to have a waiter that was right on top of what we needed. read more

This place can do no wrong. Huge assortment and have yet to have a bad meal. Delivery is packed up well and organized with everything you need. Definitely our go-to delivery spot! read more

I have visited the Yard House twice now and not really a fan. First time was just for drinks and second time was for dinner and drinks. The YH is stated to have a "HUGE SELECTION OF BEER ON TAP', well being a beer snob as one would say I did not think anything of the selection here. You can go mostly anywhere and purchase the beers they have on tap maybe not to the extent but still I could find all of them without trouble. The food was just okay, the meals were pretty pricey and nothing special. The atmosphere is great to watch a game though since there are TV's everywhere. If you are looking for a good beer restaurant stick with Sunset Grille or Bukowski's. They also overstated the wait time both of the occasions which was a good surprise since most places hardly ever do that. Would have given it a 2.5 if possible. I would visit the place again if I am at Legacy Place but otherwise I will not go out of my way. read more

Wanted to love this place but after two visits I am convinced that the food just sucks. Beer selection good but food is bad. How do you screw up Mac N Cheese? Me and another person I was with got it and we were both disgusted. Second time I pretended I would take the food home and was even more aggravated when they dropped the "to go" boxes off on the table for me to scrape off the plate into the box! Seriously? After dropping 60 bucks on food and one beer and now you want me to pack my own "to go" box? I'll return for drinks and maybe apps but only if I was with people that really wanted to go there. Definitely no entrees! read more

I have been to this particular Yard House a few times and it never disappoints. One of the more consistent chain restaurants. There is also an outdoor deck with a firepit that is used in the nicer weather. Great apps and sliders. They also have great burgers! And the caramel salt pudding dessert is INCREDIBLE!! Tip: From 4-6pm they offer a menu of 1/2 price apps and other discounted items. Good for happy hour or after work gathering. read more

Food is pretty good. large beer / wine menu. Its just always packed and too loud to think / talk. read more

Went here with a friend for dinner. It was your typical chain restaurant it was ok. I tried the Lobster Garlic Noodles and it was ok. The prices are reasonable and tons of options for someone who is a vegetarian or a Pescatarian. read more

Yard House - Lobster Garlic Noodles - Bars Near Me - Dedham, Massachusetts

Never had a bad time here. NEVER we go before or after seeing a movie or after shopping. The beer menu is HUGE!!! I would say that it dwarf's the food menu, but admittedly it's been a while since I don't live close by :( We always leave with a full stomach and left overs. It's not the cheapest place around, but it's definitely one of the nicest at Legacy place... and if you can't tell that by the typical 1-2 hour wait for a table on most nights... plus the fact that most people (myself included) are willing to wait, that should tell you something. So I apologize for this being a short review, but really nothing I can say will do this place credit. It's alive with activity, there are plenty of TVs and you will not leave this place hungry or thirsty. That's a promise. read more

My friends love this place, but I found it overpriced and really loud. The food was very good, (which is why it got a 3) the drinks were minimal, And the staff was mediocre. Parking is horrific. I would go again and give it another try...when I have some extra cash to blow. read more

I've been to a few locations, but always alone on work trips. Location was busy - but they were organized and wait went fast. We had the lobster/crab dip - liked that it came with chips and pita. Husband had ribs, I had pork belly tacos - liked the rice a lot. Dessert was nice with small portion options - husband raved about cheesecake . Next time he is getting brownie Sundae - takes 15 min., he said he wished they had mentioned that when he ordered dinner. We will be Back! read more

I last reviewed this establishment in July of 2014. In that review, I praised Yard House for cooking quality food and being a great place to dine. And now, 2 years later, what do I think of this place? It's still fantastic. The food here has been excellent the past two years since my last review. The onion ring tower appetizer has actually improved, which I previously thought impossible. They chefs have added a sprinkling of Parmesan cheese onto the dish that has increased its worth. The pizzas have also improved. The 4 cheese pizza has always tasted great, and the BBQ Chicken pizza has improved since my last review, consistently tasting just right. This place is competing with multiple other restaurants at its location. The fact that it has lasted for years despite the competition is due to the wonderful food here. I again encourage everyone to try out the Yard House in Dedham, MA 5 stars read more

I've been there two times & the food is pretty good but the service...not so much. Our waitress, Jackie, seemed super uninterested the entire night & barely checked on us. We had to press "call server" on the Kiosk on the table TWICE to get her attention. That being said, they do have a WIDE variety of food options as well as a large selection of draft beers. My friend got a sangria drink that was really good. read more

They only have yellow mustard. No brown, horseradish or grey poupon. So what does that tell you? In my opinion: kid-friendly, but lacking in the details, where it counts. I should mention that I have been here only at lunch, and most of those times with kids, so I can't vouch for the evening scene or the beer menu. I can tell you that when a popular movie lets out, or it's dinner time on a Thurs-Fri-Sat, you can't get near this place, and if you don't like crowds, loud music and being scrunched, you wouldn't want to. For the most part, the food was good, and the service friendly, if not exactly perfect. There were a few awkward second-asks and craning necks for wait staff, but nothing out of the ordinary for a relatively new restaurant in a successful "lifestyle" mall. Incidentally, Yardhouse is one of the best choices at Legacy Place for a sit-down restaurant. The Aquitane Bistro and Met Bars are the worst of their chains. P.F. Changs is the same everywhere, as far as I can tell. Like all chains, their menu is chock full of selections, but I'm afraid that they didn't take the time to properly categorize things, which sounds like a hi-falootin' piece of criticism, but I think is accurate. What is the difference really, between "snacks" and "appetizers?" or "Appetizer Salads" and "Entree Salads (hint: it's not the size)?." Further, I'm not sure burgers don't belong in Sandwiches, but that's an argument for another day. "House Favorites" contain lots of different things that you might have been looking for elsewhere. The kids menu offers all the predictable favorites, though my kids didn't particularly enjoy the burgers or the chicken tenders. Looking around, it was clear that most kids did. The size of the portions is large, and in most cases, larger than you needed or wanted, so make sure not to order hungry and then have to take lots of stuff home. Back to the details: the Sweet Korean BBQ appetizer is a nearly perfect dish, that comes rice and some green vegetables, but every time I've ordered it (which was every time I've gone to Yardhouse) it was rife with fat. Now at a Korean BBQ shack that might be OK, but at a high-end, chain-style restaurant they could do better, and should. They've got the black walls, huge flat screen monitors, beer list and loud music all set. Now they just have to get to the details. And the mustard. read more

I am definitely a fan of the Yard House. I'm not going to lie...I have a soft spot for ridiculously posh atmospheres. Which is fairly unlike my personality :-) THE BEER: I love that they have 160 beers on tap. Yes, some of them are pricey. If you come here and get a Miller Light, it's not so pricey! I decided to indulge in the Youngberry Chocolate which is Lindeman's Framboise Lambic and Young's Chocolate Stout. IT WAS OUTRAGEOUSLY delicious. Another neat thing you can do is get there Sampler of the Day for only $8.95 for 6-5oz. Pours. That's pretty good! Also, you can get samples of the beers for $1. They give you a 3 oz. pour. THE FOOD: I happen to think the food is VERY tasty. The first time I went we got the Bearnaise burgers and the BBQ pizza. I had NO complaints at ALL. They were delicious! The second time I got the Ahi Tuna Sandwich. I really enjoyed it, but I wish I got it on a different bread! The best part is Happy Hour: Monday - Friday * 3PM - 6PM and Sunday - Thursday * 10PM - 12A. HALF PRICED APPETIZERS AND PIZZAS! My boyfriend and I made a meal out of that! Delicious AND easy on our pocket. THE PRICE: I know it's pricey, but with happy hour and sample specials, I think I can deal with it. :-) read more

Mixed reviews... really 3.5 stars. I'm a New Yorker; I love Yard House. The Fenway location is on point. The Legacy Place one (closer to my bfs house) is not so much. We ordered the pig candy and short rib jerky appetizer which is delicious, but was ice cold. I know the jerky should be cold, but the bacon should not have been. The waiter reheated it for us and brought it back out, but reheating meat changes textures. The duck fat potatoes were not as good as we have had them (many times). My caesar salad came dressed, despite my request for it to be naked, hah. They took it back and fixed it. My bfs fries took forever to come out, after he had already started working on his sandwich, though at least they were hot when they did. Yard House is still good, even when it's (semi) bad, but I'll have to make the trek to Boston from now on. read more

I absolutely love this place! The food is great, the drinks are awesome and there's always great music playing on the weekends. This location is smaller than the Fenway one, but everything is is consistent. The wait at times can be very long and they don't take reservations read more

Great food, you can't go wrong here. Pepper crusted Gorgonzola burger is really good. read more

I have been coming to the Yard House on a monthly basis for years. I would choose this place for my birthday every year because it was just so good. But now, I feel like things have changed. I ordered the sliders and fries. It tasted as if it were microwaved. The cheese was still cold. The burger, cooked medium when I asked for medium well. I was extremely disappointed. The service was also terrible. Our waitress forgot about us; we had to get her attention when she passed by us. read more
