    POKE NACHOS

    I have not been to a YARD HOUSE where I was disappointed with the food put on my table. It was super busy at every restaurant in this AMERICAN DREAM MALL. Despite being busy because of the BTS concert days, the wait team was courteous & efficient!

    Loved our experience at Yard House in American Dream! The ambiance is lively and inviting, the seats are wide and comfortable, and the service was friendly and efficient. The food was delicious, and everything came out quickly. A great place to relax and enjoy a meal while visiting the mall. We'll definitely be back!

    Sweet Potato Fries

    Yard House is a very cool sports like bar. They had a wide variety of options to pick from and a ton of beer options. Thought it was very cool they had a ton of local beers. We ordered the pepperoni pizza, boneless wings (bbq and lemon pepper) and sweet potato fries. The food came out super quick and the served was attentive and straight forward. This location is awesome with it being in a mall we walked around and shopped around afterwards.

    Upon putting our names down, we had gotten notified ~15 mins that our table was ready - despite being told it could take up to 35 mins. There's a lot of different types of seating - booths, high chairs, and bar seating. There's also many appetizer and shared dish options if you just want to have a light happy hour - but there's salads, burgers, sandwiches, pastas, and more to munch on. I opted for the Mediterranean Salmon which is featured on their Light/Under 700 menu - definitely tastes healthy!

    Great service! staff was attentive and welcoming. Drinks were tasty but not very strong (3/5) the food came out warm and good overall, though it could've used a bit more flavor (3/5) Good experience overall!

    The Carnivore Pizza

    Absolutely love there happy hour, good food and great drinks. The pizza was good, cooked good nice and crispy tastes good as well. 7/10 Got the boneless wings with the Korean chili garlic sauce and they were out of this world good. Crispy very flavorful and juicy chicken. 10/10 The sliders were also great, very flavorful cooked well and buns were fresh, they also put this sauce on them which is great. 10/10 Got a strawberry Mule and it was amazing, great choice, not too sweet either it was perfect. 10/10 Plenty of seating, huge bar and if you sit in the back you can watch all the people snowboarding and skiing at the indoor snow hill. Service was excellent, food and drinks came out fast and they were very on top of everything. The happy hour is definitely worth it as they have tons of options to choose from, both food and drink wise.

    Crispy Brussels Sprouts

    Yard house was great, the service 10/10 smiles, friendly, authentic I loved it. Very big in size 2 floors of greatness. The Knicks game was on It was perfect, flat screen tvs everywhere. And for the food the crispy Brussels sprouts stole the show for me so delicious not sure what sauce that was but it was amazing, just the right char, yum. Calamari also was great the dipping sauces were also paired perfect with each appetizer. I tried the 6 beer flight and the flavors were great I will definitely be back and highly recommend

    Pretty cool bar/restaurant in the food area of the Mall. In the back of the restaurant there are huge windows looking into Big Snow which is the indoor ski area. I don't drink much but they are know for their yard beers and they have kegs and all kinds of beer. There's a bar of course as well as seating. Booths and tables. I was here for the food and it was worth its. Delicious. Service was good too. Our server took our order though you could have used the tablet at the table as well. Food came out quickly and timely and we paid via the table. Awesome lunch or dinner place.

    Hand-Battered Chicken Tenders and Fried Calamari from Happy Hour

    This place is located in the huge American Dream Mall. Me and my sibling come here to eat some of their happy hour items. Last time, we ordered the chicken tenders, fried calamari and truffle mushroom pizza. I think the whole pizza in particular was the highlight, it had lots of toppings and was overall nicely made. The chicken tenders and calamari were also fried well, though I did feel the chicken pieces were a bit small. The calamari dish also had a lot of tiny fried bits in it that were all breading with no meat. Service was good and polite. The restaurant's interior and seating is well-spaced and clean overall.

    Great service & staff was super friendly. Wait was pretty quick for 4 people & texted you when the table was ready. Food & drinks were great. Loved their onion rings, nachos, & buffalo chicken pizza! restaurant definitely gets busy but great spot for dinner/lunch at American dream.

    The food was great and all the staff were Just so nice and humble Iza her manager and The supervisor all was just so amazing I will definitely come back to this restaurant.

    Bavarian pretzl
    Stephanie G.

    This place was packed on a Saturday afternoon, so I imagine it's even more crowded at dinner/during a big sporting event. We didn't have to wait to be seated because they do have a ton of tables, ranging from the "en plein air" seating overlooking the mall to the windows overlooking the skiing. Despite the crowds, we had great service. We started with the Bavarian pretzel which was a little expensive but very crunchy on the outside and soft inside with tasty beer cheese and tangy mustard sauces. I wanted to balance out the calorie count with something on their "under 700 calories" menu (which was pretty small). I got the steak bowl, and the steak was cooked nicely, but I think they overdid it with the red pepper flakes, making it spicier than I expected. The waiter was good with bringing more water. He got the filet mignon which comes with designated sides but he was able to switch out vegetables to his liking. It was cooked perfectly. Music was loud so that it was a little hard to hear other people at your table. Tables were very close together so just had to be aware of where to put my bag as to not be in the way. Overall, ambiance was nice, food was nice but more on the expensive side for casual eating, but it was a popular location. I looked over other mall eateries, and this was the best at having something for everyone.

    Bareli's in Secaucus makes a fantastic first impression. The restaurant sits on a busy route with…read moreeasy access in and out, and the parking lot is large enough to accommodate many vehicles. The interior is visually impressive: elegant table linens, comfortable leather chairs, and a dining room that looks polished and upscale. When we arrived, what appeared to be the owner was greeting guests at the entrance. Since he was welcoming everyone and dressed differently from the rest of the staff, we assumed he was the owner. It was a great touch and immediately raised our expectations. Unfortunately, the experience did not fully match that first impression. We started with drinks: a glass of wine for me and an Old Fashioned for my wife. As happens too often in restaurants, the stronger drink was automatically assumed to be mine, and the drinks were delivered incorrectly. It's a small detail, but one that reflects attention--or lack of it. Bread arrived quickly, followed soon after by the food. I ordered the gnocchi with meat sauce. The dish was acceptable, but nothing extraordinary. My wife ordered the house seafood salad, which was very good--fresh, flavorful, and easily the best dish we had that night. Our waiter spoke limited English. Once he realized we also spoke his language, the service became noticeably more relaxed and somewhat overly familiar. He immediately tried to guide us toward the most expensive items on the menu. When I declined coffee after dinner, he responded by saying something along the lines of: "Well, that's your choice, but the coffee here is very good," which felt unnecessary. We also had a small issue with the Old Fashioned garnish. The orange peel looked unusual, so we asked for the drink to be replaced. The waiter did replace it, though he first tried to explain that what we thought were worms were simply marks on the fruit peel. For dessert we ordered the tiramisu, which the waiter promoted heavily as the best dessert to try. Unfortunately, it didn't deliver. Instead of the classic layered presentation, it arrived more like a cup full of cream with a few pieces of soaked bread and very little coffee flavor. The issue was not just the dessert itself, but the expectations created when it was described. Bareli's is a beautiful restaurant with a great location and atmosphere, but the service details and execution didn't quite match the level suggested by the setting.

We walked in to a beautifully decorated waiting area and were seating quickly. You could hear the live music playing and it was perfect. Our waiter Nathan R., was welcoming and attentive. The dirty martini was made perfectly and the hand stuffed blue cheese olives were a nice touch over the pre stuffed jar ones. To start we ordered the Burrata Salad. It was delicious. All the ingredients worked well together. For the second course we were floating between the Black Spaghetti and the Lobster Ravioli Special. We wound up going with the special and it was the move. The black inked ravioli, had chunks of lobster inside and hit nicely with the "angry sauce" on top. That bread helped clean that plate up nice. For the mains: 20oz Bone In NY Strip with sautéed spinach. Perfectly cooked to my liking and I loved that it was pre sliced for me. Spinach was lightly oiled and a perfect amount of garlic. Salmon Special - Pumpkin seed crusted with butternut squash. The plate was beautifully decorated and looked fantastic, but as soon as we cut into the salmon it was raw. It was a huge piece of salmon. So I'm sure that's what happened. Picture shown is the under cooked one that was taken back. I did not get a picture of the next. The manager saw immediately as my wife cut into it and we didn't have to say anything. He took the plate back and began making another. The dish came out and it was definitely well done this time. The piece of salmon was a lot smaller than the first. I'm sure it was to cut the cooking time down and get it out asap. The meal was fantastic. Just wish we were able to eat together. It happens. For dessert: Espresso Martini - Perfect. No baileys, 3 beans. Pistachio gelato - fantastic Zeppole - There were 3 different sauces for each one. It was amazing. Our waiter Nathan and the manager were extremely apologetic. They even came out with a complimentary limoncello spirit as we were settling up. I can't wait to dine here again to give Bareli's the 5 star it deserves.

The prices are surprisingly reasonable for a high end restaurant, which is another reason we'll return. As for the food, some bit hits, some just good, not great. We started with cocktails (which they have a really wild variety of) with their Rice Cakes. The tuna on top was fresh and the rice cake was nice and chewy. Definitely a hit. For an entree I order a filet with a side of whipped potatoes. The potato's were the big hit of the night. They were full of cheese crumbles for added flavor. Highly recommend. My steak was good, but not great. Having said that, at $55, I'd say it was a tremendous value. We also shared a Cesar salad which was sort of a wedge salad. Very tasty, my wife appreciated the deviled eggs on top, while I would prefer without. Not a big fan of eggs. Based on the very polite and attentive service, atmosphere, location and value, we look forward to returning soon.

We were there to celebrate someone's birthday so we made the birthday girl sit in the crook of the L so she could swivel and talk to everyone lol. I ordered the B&G prime burger and I think the waitress was confused because she said it was a smash burger and would come with crispy onions... the patties were definitely not smashed and there were no onions at all. I think she was thinking of the double smash burger. The patties were also not seasoned properly, so it tasted bland to me and there wasn't that nice crust the seasoning would have formed (iykyk). We also got the cornbread as an app, which was good, especially with the honey butter and the jam it came with, but it was really small and not worth the $12 at all. They were also out of several items like the deviled eggs, NY strip, and grilled branzino. I don't know how common it is for restaurants to run out of menu items so early in the day (it was like 2pm) but just something to note. Although our server was nice and I'm glad we were able to get seated right away, I probably won't come back here. The food is just average and portions are too small for the price. Also just fyi, the large group gratuity they included on our bill was 20%. I feel like I usually see 18% at other places.
