We had a reservation for 6 people in a Saturday night, everything was perfect! Even tho it was busy everything came out perfect. Food was delicious, I had the Nashville hot chicken and it was exquisite! Server was amazing I forgot her name but she was very attentive and friendly. Definitely going back to try more dishes. read more

Stopped into the new Yard House for a lunch with the family. We're familiar with the Yard House franchise, and have been to the Roseville and Riverside locations, and no the Elk Grove location. We arrived on a Sunday afternoon, when it was definitely busy. The wait was about 40 minutes it's when we arrived so we waited at the front area until our table was ready. We were eventually sat in that back area at a large table, where we could see the bar and TVs for the World Cup games. Ordered: Mexican Mule Whiskey Glazed Salmon Cobb salad Food was good, business was busy. Yard House gives Elk Grove another nice option for a child spot to dine and have a variety of options. read more

Came for happy hour on friday. We joined the waitlist ahead of time so when we checked in we waited 10/15 minutes, highly recommend. Inside was quite spacious, could def fit more tables. Since we were ordered happy hour stuff we jus ordered using the little thingy on each table. It all came out very fast tbh prob 5-10 minutes. We ordered too much lol: - fried calamari: not bad but not great, batter was flavorless wouldnt get again - chicken tenders: good! Juicy chicken tenders, the sauce, im guessing honey mustard or smth was TOO sweet - sliders: 4 sliders, alright nothing special - chicken nachos: big plate, chips were alr soggy when we got it, not bad but wouldnt grt again - carnivore pizza: dry, super oily not great - buffalo chicken pizza: i liked the pizza dough, pretty good Total was 70 including tax n tip. Service was pretty good. Came up to check on us many many times but never actually refilled our waters, we did not ask to ig but we assume they usually do. Would come back again for happy hour and order less lol read more

We decided on stopping by Yard House and delighted that's it's not far from our home. We were greeted upon entering, the wait time was 5mins. I was amazed at the floor size and decor. Our server was Emily with the best personality and professionalism. We ordered the House Cheesesteak with Fries, Everything Crusted Ahi Tuna Sandwich with Onion Rings and Beer-Battered Fish and Chips. The food was served heat hot and totally delicious. Oh my goodness packed with lots of flavor. I absolutely loved the Ahi sandwich. Hats off to the Chef. read more

Super excited that there is a Yard House in Elk Grove! Located in The Village plaza. Came here Friday for dinner and there was a long wait. We waited for almost an hour. Poke Nachos, Firecracker Shrimp, Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich and Truffled Mushroom Pizza were all good. The truffled mushroom pizza was the star of the night. It was delicious! All the food came out promptly even though they were really busy. Service was good overall. Seating indoor and outdoor. Music was really loud. You will have to shout so other people can hear you. Hopefully, they will eventually tone down the volume of the music one day. Definitely not a place for a first date as you want to be able to hear one another without shouting at each other =P Parking can be a challenge. read more

Located in the corner of the new shopping plaza there is plenty of parking and a variety of other shops open and opening soon too. I came for a girls lunch and we were seated pretty quickly since we were there quite early. The place got full very quickly afterwards so it seems popular. There is a large variety on their menu. I got the jambalaya with white rice & it did have a nice spicy kick! Someone else got the lobster garlic noodles & there was a good amount of lobster & shrimp, but not much garlic flavor. The fish and chips were huge! The batter was also very light and crispy. Very good. Interior was well lit and clean. Lots of tables and various TVs around. Outdoor seating was an option too read more

We came here opening week, during their happy hour, from 3-6pm, Monday through Friday. During happy hour, some of the selected items on the menu is half off appetizers and selected drinks are discounted. The place was very busy. There were a lot of people waiting for tables, but we gave it a try anyways. It was just two of us, and we got seated right away. I guess we were lucky. Everyone was waiting for tables for bigger parties. We ordered a variety of things to try. Chicken tenders, pizza, cheeseburger sliders and poke nachos. Everything was pretty good. The chicken tenders were not dry. The cheeseburger sliders were ok. I put mayonnaise and ketchup in the sliders. That made the sliders taste better. I thought the sliders were a little dry and needed something. Pizza was good, but the poke nachos were not my thing. The poke nachos were way too spicy for me. My husband liked it. Yeah, happy hour was worth it. It's a big plus in my book. I would probably not have ordered so many things to try if they were not half off. Service was ok. They have a lot of staff. The place was very busy and the service isn't bad. They did a good job for first week of opening. Parking is limited. The parking lot is not big. I think there is not enough parking spaces for the entire plaza. The lot is full for Yardhouse and Whole Foods is not even opened yet. To think when Whole Foods does open, it's going to be crazy. read more

Pulled up to Elk Grove to check out the newest Yardhouse location and also to celebrate a friend's birthday. The vibes were extremely high as the energy of the staff could be felt throughout the new building. There was a long wait for seating inside but patio seating was available so that's what we chose to do. They did a great job of laying down some turf and putting tables and chairs utilizing the entire outside space. It wasn't as hot as I expected either. If you've been to Yardhouse you know their menu is huge. In my opinion is comparable to BJ's and if I had to choose which one is better it would be like splitting hairs. They have the world's largest selection of beer on tap. And they are known for their unique glasses which are called Yards and half Yards. Liquor is also available here for cocktails and shots which we did a few of to celebrate. Went with the sliders. Always my favorite here. My friend enjoyed the vampire tacos which looked super crispy and cheesy. Going to order that one next time. As a West Sacramento resident I'm a bit envious at Elk Groves ability to secure top eateries. Glad to have a place like Yardhouse to hangout at when I meet up with my Elk Grove friends. read more

We've been waiting for Yard House to open for a while. We even waited a few weeks before attempting to dine in. Sunday was probably a bad choice while FIFA World Cup game is playing! Yard House has TV's everywhere! The bar area was packed! Dining inside was not available. They have many outdoor tables. Note: not all tables have umbrellas in the sun! So, when we arrived, we were told approximately an hour to an hour and fifteen minutes. By the time we sat down, it was an hour and a half. We will write this off to the excitement of the game! When our hostess took us to our table, there were three guys who were already sitting there! They were politely asked to leave. It seemed there were people just entering the patio area and sat down to watch the games. Good for them for getting away with it, but probably bad for business. ( Some drinking Philz coffee ) Emily was our waitress. She's very helpful and friendly. We ordered the Thai Grilled Pork Chops! We had to stick with water due to our outdoor dining had no umbrella! Hydration is important! Overall, we've been to many Yard House locations. Their food has always been delicious and their employees are very cheerful and friendly. We noticed three empty tables while waiting. As we dined, we noticed it was unoccupied. As we left, it was still empty. I think they need to fine tune their table system! People walking in through the bushes to sit and watch the games while guests are waiting is bad news. It's still a great place to eat and meet friends and family! We love their menu items. read more

We were told this restaurant has only been open about a month, and judging by the crowd, it's already a huge hit! I guess Elk Grove needed a Yard House!! We arrived around 1:30 on a Sunday, and the place was absolutely packed. There was about a45 minute wait, and people were everywhere. It was honestly pretty crazy. Temps were hot as hell outside but the restaurant was nice and cold!! Parking sucks a$$ because it's under construction. No fault of Yard House. Despite how busy they were, the staff had everything running like a well-oiled machine. Our party of seven was seated within the estimated wait time, and our waitress was friendly, patient, and attentive while we waited for the rest of our group to arrive. I like that we didn't have to have our whole party to be there in order to be seated! The biggest surprise was how quickly the food came out. Once we placed our order, our meals were on the table in what felt like less than 10 minutes. I ordered the small Ahi tuna salad ($16.99), and it was fresh, flavorful, and the perfect size. read more

Yard House - Small Ahi Crunchy Salad $16.99. Very good but too much dressing for me - New American Near Me - Elk Grove, California

Update on my previous review. OMG !!! I just found out that there's an off off menu of Root Beer Foat available if you smile and wink three times, not four times, but three times! Came in for the happy hour and ordered about seven different dishes, and of course the blended Margarita with the upscale / top shelf Tequila. Nothing better to have with friends and family than a great meal and a good time with happy and congenial servers. Not to mention that two letter competitive restaurant, but everything here is a lot better and the waiters and waitresses are a hell-of-a lot better looking to lol - i think the second margarita just kicked in. I blame Krystyn for the second margarita. (Jk). Wonderful service, great menu, and awesome management makes the deal. The tvs located throughout the establishment are also a deamaker. read more

Waited a few weeks after Yard House had their grand opening because it's always crazy when a new restaurant opens in Elk Grove and takes awhile for the staff to get into the swing of things. When my small group arrived on a Sunday evening, parking was easy, we were quickly seated, and our waiter dropped by within minutes. The waiter had great suggestions especially when it came to the beer on tap. The atmosphere was popping with happy conversations and music that matched the videos on the multiple TVs. Our dishes started arriving after 5-10 minutes. Most tasted as expected; the best was the Mac & Cheese, but the Cheesesteak could've used onions, green peppers, and mushrooms. Prices were as expected and we felt that we received our money's worth. Make sure to come during their Lunch & Lat Night Happy Hour. We were content to add another option to have our late night spots. Fried Calamari Onion Rings Tower House Cheesesteak Fontina Vodka Penne Adult Mac + Cheese Favorite beer on tap were: Malty Amber - Hacker-Pschorr Münchner Dunkel Brown Stout - Left Hand Milk Stout Nitro read more

Busy new location with a few opening-week hiccups! This new Elk Grove location opened on 6/22/2026, and the public interest is definitely high. I came on 7/7 around 5 PM and was surprised to see the line going all the way outside. The indoor dining room, bar, and outdoor patio were all packed. Luckily, my friend had already put our group on the waitlist around 4:30 PM. Parking: Free, but limited for now because the shopping center is still being developed. Several businesses are under construction, so some parking spaces are taken up by construction vehicles, materials, and portable toilets. Restrooms: Clean and decent. Service: Friendly overall, but there were a few hiccups. Water was served right away without us asking, which was nice. They started taking drink orders first, but then also took food orders from some of us, so it felt a little unorganized. I asked for a sample of a beer I'd never tried before so I could decide what to order. I expected the sample to come first, but it arrived together with everyone else's drinks, so it didn't really help me make a decision. Our food also came out in two batches. About half the table got their meals first, while the rest of us waited a while longer. We ended up sharing food until everyone's orders finally arrived. Our server checked on us a couple of times and cleared empty plates and glasses. There was one funny moment when he asked if I was done with my drink. I said, "Not yet," but he had already picked it up. As soon as he realized it, he put it back and apologized. Afterward, they offered dessert, and a few people in our group ordered some. One thing that stood out was how loud it was inside. There wasn't any music playing, but the restaurant was so noisy that we had to practically shout just to talk to the people sitting next to us or across the table. If you're coming with friends and want to actually have a conversation, I'd recommend sitting on the outdoor patio. Overall, it's a great addition to Elk Grove. The staff was friendly, and most of the issues seemed like normal growing pains for a brand-new restaurant that's been incredibly busy. Happy hour: Mon-Fri (3pm-6pm): half price apps and pizza. $2 off beers, wine, spirits, cocktails! read more

We stopped by the new Yard House in Elk Grove on a Friday afternoon around 3:15 and were pleasantly surprised to find out Happy Hour runs from 3-6 p.m. Since appetizers were half off, we ordered a variety so we could sample several items. The poke nachos were my favorite and something I'd definitely order again. The chicken lettuce wraps were delicious and came with two dipping sauces--I especially liked the peanut sauce. We also tried the boneless wings (lemon pepper and another flavor) and the calamari, and everything was tasty. Since it's one of Elk Grove's newest restaurants, it was definitely busy. We were quoted about a 25-minute wait, but it ended up being closer to 40 minutes. It seemed like they were pacing seating instead of filling every open table at once, which I appreciated because it probably helped keep the kitchen from getting overwhelmed during the opening rush. Once we were seated, our food came out quickly. Our server, Jordyn, was wonderful. She mentioned this was her first serving job, and honestly, you never would have guessed. She was friendly, attentive, checked on us throughout our meal, and kept my husband's iced tea refilled without us having to ask. The only minor hiccup was that they were out of the beer my husband originally ordered, but she let him know right away so he could choose something else. Parking was a bit of a walk since part of the shopping center is still under construction, and several spaces were being used by construction crews. Overall, we had a great first visit. Between the Happy Hour prices, the tasty appetizers, and excellent service from Jordyn, we'll definitely be back. read more

Pro-tip: sit at the bar. This was our fourth visit, and yes it took us this long to figure out the bar is the place to be. Mariana was an attentive bartender. Best experience to date. Not going back to the tables ever again. The table servers are not necessarily aware of when happy hour is (full price for poke nachos after 3:00 [Jallah] beverages the bar is out of, or how to override a charge of 4.29 for soda that we didn't order, that we mentioned to Jallah right away but still showed up on our receipt. Audit your receipt at the tables. read more

This is a great location and glad they opened in Elk Grove. Spacious, clean, exciting atmosphere With FIFA. The service Was excellent, i believe his name was breshon. He was great and friendly. The food was great buuuuuuut the burger and sliders had no pink as requested. It was okay we still enjoyed them. read more

I was anticipating the opening of Yardhouse in Elk Grove. I like their Downtown location but parking is tricky in DOCO and sometimes pricey! So, parking in EG will be much easier! We braved the crowd and came here on Thursday for their Happy Hours between 3-6 pm (Mon. to Fri.). Not sure if it was the 4th of July weekend or they are still new, or both....it was packed! Arrive early if you want to take advantage of their HH. We got here at 3:00 pm and waited for about 15 min. to be seated but the lines started to form outside very quickly. You don't want to get here at 5 pm, wait in line to find out you didn't make the HH. DRINKS $2 off on a selection of cocktails, beer and wine. My Lychee Cosmo cocktail was pretty, sweet and tasty but I barely felt the alcohol. My sister got the Blue Moon beer. For pint size, it was less than $5 after the HH discount. It was cold and served in a chilled beer glass. APPETIZERS A good selection of appetizers are half off during HH and we took full advantage of that. -Margherita Pizza - I love the crust. It's not too thin with a nice texture. I can use a little more tomatoes sauce. 5/5. -Seared Ahi Sashimi - The sashimi is fresh but the sauce is a bit salty. Nice presentations. 3.5/5. -Calamari - It was overly fried with lots of small hard pieces. The two sauces are good. 3/5. -Poke Nachos - The first time I had it in DOCO was amazing. They use different kind of nachos. It's not as fresh and crunchy. I think the portion is a smaller too. 3/5. -Brussels Sprouts - I like that they put a twist to the sauce with a nice kick. Tasty dish. 5/5. -Classic Sliders - it comes with 4 mini sliders with french fries. Good portion. 4/5. -Chicken Wings - We got the Korean BBQ. It was just okay. Your average party wings. 3.5/5 You can order with your server and/or using the tablets on the table. We opted in to order the food on the tablet because we can see the pictures, prices, and customize the item. For some reason, we couldn't order the HH Chicken Wings on the tablet and the server put it in for us. When I got the bill to pay, I noticed we were charged full price for the Chicken Wings. It was $10 more and I address this with our server. She came back and said that it wasn't a HH item and that's why we couldn't order it on the tablet. That doesn't make sense because I can see the item and the HH price but couldn't add it. Even if that was the case, she should say something right off the bat. I didn't want to argue about $10 and ruin my evening. Clearly, they still have to work on some grand opening issues. It's a large restaurant with patio seating. As far as I know, they do not take reservations. I recommend allowing extra time and expect a wait until the hype dies down. read more

So excited that a yard house opened up by my house! It's still very busy here since it's been opened for less than a month, so be prepared to wait, especially during happy hour which is M-F from 3-6pm. We decided to come during happy hour for half off appetizers on a weds. We put our names down for a party of 6 and waited about 40 mins. After we got seated, ordering on the ziosk was seamless. All of the happy hour menu was in there and just a click away. Our server was amazing! He kept coming in several times to check on us and to refill our waters. We ordered a bunch of things from the happy hour menu and got to try all of it. It came out super quick, only like 10 mins after placing the order. My favorite was the chicken nachos and the white truffle mushroom pizza. My least favorites were the carnivore pizza and the sliders. They were whatever to me. I did enjoy the calamari, but felt like it had a lot of batter on it. Wings were good but a little salty. Really busy place inside. Thought it would be bigger since it was a new construction but bustling inside nonetheless. Very worth coming for happy hour. I do like the huge menu variety though and tons of beers and cocktails to choose from. Theres a few other items that I usually enjoy from yard house. There's also an outside patio to sit at. Parking is a little small and hectic but hoping that will fix itself when everything else in the plaza opens up. read more

I was excited to check out this new location. I heard it's only been open for about a month. The food is consistently good at every Yard House location. The pricing is pretty reasonable. The service here was rough at first, but once I received my orders, it improved. When I walked in, I immediately realized there was something going on. They were playing the World Cup on TV. People were waiting for tables and booths, but since I was by myself, I looked for a spot at the bar. There were a couple spots available, so I sat down and took one of them on the corner. It took several minutes for someone to approach me, even though a guy sat down a couple minutes after me and was approached within a minute. The female staff were attentive to everyone but me. A male staffer eventually came up to me and asked if I had been helped, then placed my order. He was the only one who was attentive to me. Another guy was standing at the bar "cleaning", but was mostly just watching the game. My drink was made in a timely manner and tasted great. I soon received my food order. Both my salad and burger arrived at the same time. I asked if they could bring the burger back out later because I wanted to eat my salad first and didn't want my burger to get cold, but they wound up just remaking it and bringing it out later. I appreciated the accommodation since I didn't clarify that beforehand. Once I made that request, a female staffer chimed in, but I told her the male staffer had it taken care of. She came by later and asked if everything was good. Once I was ready to go, a different female staffer closed my bill. Not sure which one was my actual server (even though neither of them served me), but I noticed one of their names on my receipt instead of the male staffer. I hope my tip actually went to him, but he might have been the manager? I have no idea. Besides the confusion with the ladies, I thought everything else was good. The male staffer was great and accommodating, and the food and drinks were perfect. This wasn't necessarily a bad experience, but it wasn't the best first impression. I might come back on a different day when it's not so busy and see how service is. read more

Came to have lunch here with some family. The restaurant is really big with lots of seating inside and out. Pretty busy seems like always so far. Service is great for it being busy. We ordered a couple items to share. We had the giant pretzel it came with beer cheese and ground mustard. I love giant pretzel and like to order it anywhere that has it. The beer cheese is not for me because I don't really care for beer. The mustard was ok. We also ordered some wings . Bbq and original hot. I liked the bbq wings. I'm not an original hot flavored girl. For our shared entree we ordered the truffled mushroom pizza added sausage and pepperoni. The pizza was hot and good but it tasted a bit on the salty side. I think it might've been the sauce it was topped with. Overall the restaurant was good. I'd probably come back to have drinks and snack. read more

Finally tried Yard House in Elk Grove! Despite the endless crowds waiting for a table, our party of four only had to wait about 15 minutes for a table. The restaurant is big and we got a nice booth near the bar. On a day when it is not too hot, it would be great to sit outside on the patio. The menu is huge and it was hard to decide what to get. I finally decided on the very large Cobb salad, my husband had a bacon cheeseburger with fries, and my parents had lettuce wraps. The lettuce wraps are definitely more of an appetizer which I felt were not a big enough portion for a meal all on their own. My salad on the other hand was fresh and loaded with tomatoes, bacon, blue cheese, hard boiled eggs, endame, and more. Healthy and filling. I was pleased. My husband's hamburger was also good. Our waiter, Kosh, was terrific. He was friendly and efficient, and able to handle a very busy afternoon at Yard House. He deserves recognition for his great attitude and ability to multi-task. I would definitely return to try some other dishes like the Philly cheesesteak sandwich and the orange chicken. I am glad Elk Grove has this new addition to the dining scene. read more

My husband, our two kids, and I were invited to participate in the soft opening of the Yard House on Elk Grove Boulevard. We were both offered two complimentary beverages of our choice if we wanted them. They also had multiple draft beers to try. They had several seating options, and we chose to sit in the indoor/outdoor area. It was very warm outside, so we asked for the fans to be turned on. I think our waiter forgot to turn them on. The food was very good. I ordered a pineapple chicken dish that was flavorful, and the temperature was perfect. The kids ordered from the kids' menu. My husband's meal, on the other hand, had some issues. His T-bone steak was overcooked, so it was sent back, and his sides were incorrect, so those were sent back too. The order was finally correct, and once it was, the taste was amazing! Our server was friendly but could benefit from additional training in getting familiar with the menu. I do appreciate how frequently he and other staff checked on our table. We plan to visit this location again. Welcome to Elk Grove. P.s. GET THE DESSERT. You're welcome. read more

Well it's finally open. It was the first day , yesterday Monday. I got there just before 4:30PM today and it was packed. Still got a table right away. Man parking is horrible and wait till Whole Foods opens. This strip mall is going to be crappy for parking. I was lucky to find a spot. The place is a nice size and had outdoor dinning too. Not as big as the one downtown. They have free wifi. It was happy hour and 1/2 off the appetizers, a select few was great. We tried the poke nachos. I asked for no Cilantro but it came with it. Had to re make it. so took awhile. We got the sliders too. It came with fries. They had pickles on it but wanted more of them. You really had to add kechtup or mustard. A nice size but wish they cooked the fries a little longer. Chicken tenders were juicy and yummy , also with fries. Got the Margarita pizza. not a bad size . Really thin crust. Very flavorful. I liked it a lot. Finally got the poke nachos and I loved them. It was spicy from the jalapenos my wife couldn't eat it. I loved it. A must try. Service was ok especially since it was really busy. So many staff here. When we left there was a line out the door. Crazy. Get here early for sure. I will be back. read more

Decided to go here after going to the Roseville branch some time ago. We were with my girlfriend her son and his girlfriend. I don't think any of us are really big beer fans so we were here for the food. Pretty crowded for a a Saturday afternoon. The kids had a margarita pizza and I had an Ahi Tuna salad, my girlfriend had the Ahi Nachos. My salad was very good and I tried the pizza also very good. I also had the house margarita excellent. Very family vibe in the afternoon I would like to try some other dishes and will be back. . read more

I would give 4.5 stars if I could. I like the new yard house in Elk Grove. Nice set up and a bunch of servers. We went at a good time so our wait was manageable but I hear it's really long now. Looked smaller from the outside but inside was pretty roomy. We ordered the truffled mushroom pizza and two flavors of the wings. The pizza was pretty tasty and the wings were great. I love buffalo wings and these were pretty dang tasty with a kick not just the tangy flavor. Been craving the wings so I might go back soon, wish me luck on the wait. read more

So happy YH is finally open! But it was busy being that its still their opening week. It was already busy when we got there, but people were coming in and out. The reception area was crowded, with what seemed like too many staff members standing around. We were seated right away though since we didn't have a seating preference and just wanted the first available table. You can order from the little kiosk at your table, which makes it super convenient and easy. We had a server, but it was easier for us to just place all of our orders through the kiosk. Everything came out quickly, and our server checked in on us throughout our meal. HH FOOD Poke Nachos 4/5 - Good, but the portion looked smaller compared to other YH locations. Cheese Spinach Dip 4/5 - It was good, but the chips got saltier as we kept eating. Calamari 4/5 - I'm a fan of the jalapeño tartar sauce served on the side. Brussels Sprouts 2.7/5 - My least favorite. They were drenched in sauce, came out soggy, and I think there was some buffalo sauce mixed in too. Hummus 3/5 - Decent. DRINKS 5/5 * Hawaiian Mule * Grand Patrón Margarita * Picante Margarita * Pink Dragon * Coco Passion The drinks were all good and presented nicely, though some were stronger than others. There was a complication with one of our orders, but our server took care of it, which we appreciated. Overall, my friends and I left satisfied. The parking lot is going to suck once Whole Foods opens, though. read more

Recently visited for lunch. There was plenty of people standing up front, but we were able to get seated in 5-10 minutes. The front desk had their own controlled chaos. Once seated, our server Alo was the sweetest. She was super attentive to our table. On top of that there was plenty of other servers checking in too, which I thought was interesting. Food was good. They ran out of modelo when we visited. All in all we enjoyed our visit. Thanks again Alo! read more

I came here for lunch over the weekend, and the wait was about 20-30 minutes. The restaurant is much bigger than I expected, with plenty of both indoor and outdoor seating, plus a large bar area if you'd rather sit there. Considering it was their opening week, the service was pretty good. Some menu items are ordered through a tablet at the table, while others have to be ordered directly from your server. Our food arrived fairly quickly. The giant pretzel was decent--soft and not dry at all. However, I wasn't a fan of the beer cheese or the mustard, as both sauces were a little too strong for my taste. We also tried the truffle mushroom pizza and added sausage and pepperoni. It was decent overall. The truffle flavor was subtle, which I liked, but the pizza was a bit saltier than I would have preferred. The wings were another item we ordered. They were well coated in sauce and had great flavor. I just wish they offered a spicy sauce option. Overall, it was a solid first experience. The menu has plenty of other items that caught my eye, so I'd definitely come back to try more dishes. read more

I'm glad this location finally opened after a couple of delays here and there. I have to say I enjoyed my time here during happy hour, which might be my new favorite happy hour spot in the city. The ambience is kind of like BJ's so it can get pretty loud inside. I was seated immediately even though it was pretty busy so that was a good start. My server asked if I had any questions and even gave me a few samples of some beers since they had so many options and I wasn't sure what I wanted. I ended up getting their honey blonde ale in a 32oz half yard glass which looked comically large but I still enjoyed the beer. I started off with some poke nachos then eventually got some chicken tenders with fries. Their prices during happy hour (half off pizzas and certain appetizers) were really good although I'm not sure if I'd get appetizers during times when happy hour isn't offered. My beer was also $4 off during happy hour. Prices are decent for everything else on the menu. I enjoyed my visit here and look forward to coming back with friends and family. read more

Came out for opening night and so glad we did. The place was packed, as you'd expect for a debut, but the staff handled the rush like pros. Genuinely positive attitudes across the board and still attentive even with a full house, which says a lot when a brand new team is finding its rhythm. The food did not disappoint. We worked our way through the buffalo chicken tacos with that creamy slaw and a side of Spanish rice and beans, the seared ahi over a bright broth, shrimp street tacos loaded with crispy fries and guac, and a massive cheese pizza that easily fed the table. Every single item was a hit. The space itself is a great hang. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, and TVs everywhere you look, so it's perfect whether you're catching a game or just gathering with friends and family. Elk Grove needed a spot like this. Thankful for the addition to the community and we'll definitely be back. read more

We came here about 11:30am on a Friday. They had just open not too long ago. One of the host was seating us and I asked if we can be seated in a booth as I didn't like to sit in the center of the room. He said it would be quite a wait as they didn't have enough waiters yet. Mind you within 5 minutes later, other customers were seated at the two open booth area. Hence I knew he definitely LIED and just didn't want to seat us at a booth area. My drink was ok. They ran out of the beer my hubby wanted so he had to order a different beer. The dish I order wasn't that great for $35 I expected better. Our waiter was not very attentive and did not asked if we were celebrating any special occasion or asked how our food was. Mind you today, was actually my birthday. Thank you for such a "pleasant experience". read more

So. . .late night, I'm injured and don't feel like cooking. Yard House opened recently, it was open late and I wanted to try it so I placed my order to go. I don't recommend it. I picked up my food because I'm leery about delivery. My interaction with the staff was pretty brief so I don't have much to say about that but for the quick interaction, it was pleasant. Not super welcoming but not rude either. I received my food a few minutes after my arrival so the timing was pretty good. The thing is, I don't live far from the restaurant but when I got home, my food was cold. Not even a little warm. I ordered boneless wings for my son, birria tacos with fries for my daughters and nachos for myself. My son enjoyed his wings because he enjoys wings. I don't think he's ever met wings he did not like LOL. My daughters did not enjoy their birria tacos because they said it does not taste like birria at all. There was a pretty good flavor to the tacos, but it did not taste like birria to me either. I should've known ordering something like that from a restaurant was not going to taste authentic but they wanted to try it so we tried it. Now my nachos, they were much larger than I expected. The pan could've fed two people. I was not aware it was going to be that much. But the problem was that my nachos were super cold and the cheese coagulated in a way that everything stuck together. Like I could grab one end of the nachos and it would lift almost all of the other nachos in the pan. The cheese had the chips stuck to the bottom of the pan so I had to pry them apart and pry it off of the bottom and sides of the pan. It was not a good experience at all. I know to go orders can be hit for miss. This one was definitely a miss. 2/10. I do plan to visit again and eat in the restaurant to compare my experiences but as it stands now, I will never order to go from this restaurant again. read more

The AC was not working when we got in to the restaurant it was like an oven! It wasn't crowded we were seated in 10 mins. By the time we finished eating - we were sweating. Server: Daisy - she was very attentive, refilled our waters and always check on us Food: overall good portion but the Korean steak - it was cooked medium rare and my husband loves it Spicy Jambalaya - it was bland and not all spicy read more

Yard House is finally in Elk Grove. I kinda expected that they would be very busy during their first couple weeks of opening. But I was surprised to see how busy they were on a weekday lunch time. It impossible to come to yard house and just stick with one item. I love the fact that we could order our drinks and appetizers on the table kiosk. I feel like the food came out very quickly for how busy they were. My favorites were the Parmesan truffle fries, fried calamari and the Margherita pizza. The menu has plenty of options, so it's a great place for solo dining, duos, or a group of individuals. read more

Two hour wait. This place was packed. We spent 30 mins even trying to get a seat at the bar. But imagine there's a group of people behind the bar seats too. People were waiting for people to leave. We couldn't wait any longer so we left. We found a restaurant nearby. I'm now curious about how great this place is. I'll definitely return. read more

Happy hour is 3-6pm on Monday-Friday! Jambalaya isn't as good as the location in downtown! Be prepared to wait as it is still in the grand opening phase. Super busy on a Friday evening and it can get loud with all the chatter. Overall pretty cool and another great spot in EG. I would say all the food is average but the one in downtown tastes better imo. I would come back again during happy hour to get their apps and try their pizzas read more

One of the newest spots in EG, and it was a hit for me. Nice open space with lots of dining areas inside and out. Huge bar, with lots of beer & mixed drinks to choose from. Did I mention the outstanding menu selection? Appetizers & entrees that are sure to hit the spot. Heck yeah Yard House...I see you! Our waiter, Hans, was top notch. Answered all my families questions, and was extremely patient with my youngest while she was making her selection. My wife ordered a drink that she thought would be made a bit differently. Wasn't even an issue he swapped it out without hesitation. He wasn't overbearing with his check-ins with us, and made sure we had everything we needed. Stoked to leave this review for Hans, the manager & the Yard House Team. Heck yeah...definitely worth checking out! read more

We tried the new Elk Grove location for Happy Hour. We were told there'd be a 35 minute wait but only waited about 20, not bad. You check in at the door & are then called to the hostess desk & are seated. We had a nice booth inside. Lots of seating inside & out, even have like an in between area to sit plus a full bar. We ordered from the HH menu which has a lot of good items to choose from for half off. They even have a late night HH menu. We ordered a pizza, & calamari. Both were very good. Our server Aaron Hans so outstanding. Very friendly, professional & attentive. I received dessert for my birthday. One thing we realized is that they don't have club rewards at this time. We'll be back soon! read more
