SHORT ANSWER: Yes, this place has been great for us... I've done a few reviews so this is an update to my other updates.. LOCATION: In The River in Rancho Mirage, hard to miss, lots of parking but at times this entire center gets slammed. Since Babe's left the property, it seems like the property is still active. Lease rates here are kind of out of touch with the market. FACILITY: So nice inside, well laid out with tons of space, TV, beer, and booths and tables. MENU: great option, look online you will find what you want, need. FOOD PREP: perfect on each of our visits, for what it is they do a great job... kitchen manager must be Jedi. FOOD QUALITY: very good, tastes as good as it looks and we've ordered many of the options here, doubtful you will be disappointed. LIBATIONS: Large and in charge, we did not drink anything on the visit but I am sure at peak hours or events, this place is happening. WAITSTAFF: ALWAYS IMPRESSED, from reception to server, people are nice, fun, and seem happy to be working there... Not always the case in these type of restaurants. Our server, Alexiss, was just so amazing, ask for her section and tip her like you're a billionaire. OVERALL VALUE: very good, we shared a burger not to be cheap, rather that is all we can eat. Never anyone complaining with some split plate fee, we tip for two and don't need to waste take-home containers for food we usually throw away. This is a well managed establishment which is not easy in this thin margin business... so impressed I am... ya more Yoda Jedi speak! TIP: Outdoor seating is very nice, pretty quiet but can a little warm in the hots months. read more

Popped in while getting the car charged and what batter way to wait than to get something to cool off with. Originally the plan was to charge the car at the charging station in the lot. From there grab a drink while we wait before heading to lunch. One thing lead to another and we ended up just having lunch here instead. It's alway bar seating for us the last few times we've been. Service was a little slow at the beginning as it did take a while for a drink. The place wasn't that busy when we walked in as there wasn't even a host at the table. We just walked up to bar and seated ourselves. After we got served, it was great. The staff were very friendly and sweet. It was still a little too early for happy hour which is alway a good time to visit as the deals are great. Discount on drinks and half off appetizers on a lot of items. For lunch, the new items in the menu of garlic beef noodles. I had it a while back at another location and was quite impressed with the dish. Enough garlic taste with decent slices of beer that's marinated and tossed in a garlic noodles with veggies. If you haven't tried it, it's quite tasty. Also the three tacos with rice and beans. They're decent in size and the shrimps were quite tasty and big. Rice and beans were actually combined together compared to on their own. Lastly the hummus plate which is a starter was quite nice. And of course the truffle fries, alway a must. Food was good and the service was nice. A little slow at the beginning but it did make up later on. People did start to show up as it was approaching happy hour. At least with Yard House, it's good that you know what to expect. read more

Ate here today for happy hour and am not sure hat was up with the server. She was not attentive and/or weeded but still had time to stop by the bar and chat with a lady sitting by herself. It was empty when we got there and filled up quickly. So I get being in the weeds. Our POS terminal was removed after she spilled beer all over my kid. She left and eventually came back. This normally is our go to spot for a late lunch as you can't go wrong with the food. Normally we would have ordered more drinks and even refills through the machine. She finally showed up after the manager came to assist us settling the check. Her demeanor when she realized we had escalated getting out of there is worthy of a write up. Her smile and smugness and overall demeanor lacked maturity and professionalism for her age. Hard pass on her but still a solid place to enjoy good food with great prices. No attempt to upsell from her whatsoever.... read more

Best deals are during Happy Hour which runs Monday through Friday 3:00pm - 6:00pm where you can get 50% off select appetizers and pizzas. All the dishes are full-portions. I went during Happy Hour and each dish was between $8-$9 which is really a fantastic deal. I like that you can order and pay directly from the tablet that's on the table. Even though I utilized the tablet, the server was friendly and she consistently checked on me and made sure my beverage was refilled. I blame the good deals for enabling me to be a big back. I ended up ordering four dishes even though I was dining alone. 1. Chicken Nachos: A hefty portion that comes with chicken, tomato's, fresh sliced jalapeños, cilantro, green onion, sour cream and guacamole. Cheese is baked onto the tortilla chips and finished with a drizzle of salsa. A bit skimpy of the protein, I did wish there was more chicken. 2. Truffled Mushroom Pizza: Great if you like a strong umami mushroom flavor. A mix of shiitake, cremini and oyster mushrooms and drizzled with truffle aioli. The crust was decent and a good amount of cheese. A little greasy. 3. Poke Nachos: Love the crunch from the fried wonton chips. Comes with raw tuna, fresh avocado, serrano peppers, green onions, nori, and drizzled with sriracha aïoli, white truffle sauce, and sweet soy ginger sauce. I think they used a bit too much soy ginger sauce because it was a tad salty. Still a very refreshing dish! 4. Classic Sliders: Generously comes with four sliders topped with cheddar and their special sauce. Comes with a side of fries and pickles. I loved the brioche buns and as basic as cheeseburgers are, this was probably my favorite dish. I was stuffed and had plenty to take home. Overall a good experience! read more

In the area for a few nights and stopped in to see a football game with a few of our friends. Unbelievable selection of draft beers, great food and awesome bartenders. The Mango Cart is delicious and a must try, along with the Ahi Stack, and Blackened Chicken Cesar salad. Located at the Riverwalk amongst many other restaurants, stores and bars. The Yard House is loud, has many T.V.s and is conveniently located to many hotels in the area. We all had a great time at the bar top and would highly recommended watching a football game here, the energy was great and the atmosphere was fantastic. Cheers! read more

Yard House - Cheers! - New American Near Me - Rancho Mirage, California

Ambiance is that of a sports bar, but better, with more of a rock vibe. Beer selection was excellent! Our server, Alexis, was friendly and prompt. She kept an eye on us to be sure our drinks were filled and table cleared. Happy hour is the time to go with drink specials and half off most apps. We got the poke nachos and it had to be one of the best things we've had in a long time! I could have had another plate and been super happy! Also got the black pepper whiskey nuggets which we good but nothing compared those nachos! Would recommend! read more

Yard House - Poke nachos - New American Near Me - Rancho Mirage, California

Great experience, have not been to a Yard House in a very long time. Not sure why when there is one close to me, just was not on my radar. Love the fact this is a beer lovers paradise, they have over 100 beers on tap, on top of that, their pizza is excellent, very unexpected, but very happy I tried it. I got the Carnivore, pepperoni, seasoned beef, spicy sausage, crispy bacon, mozzarella and tomato. Great mix of flavors with the various toppings, the crust was soft, with crisp edges very tasty all around. I did go in for one of their Yard's of beer, just had to experience it once I guess. This thing was very tall, but it is actually not as big as you think, it is 32 ounces. It was cold and tasted great. My server was super cool, helpful, gave me suggestions and I was even able to try a few samples of different beers. Great experience. This is a very large Yard House, modern interior, concrete all around. Very clean inside with a ton of seating inside as well as a big patio for sitting outside. Located in a very pretty area with fountains and outdoor seating areas. They have a huge parking lot as well, so parking is not an issue. Enjoy! read more

The food here was decent, but unfortunately the overall experience was overshadowed by very poor service. Our large party asked for an outdoor table to be wiped down, and the manager responded rudely, saying they were too busy to do it. Even though the restaurant was clearly busy, the attitude and lack of basic courtesy were disappointing. The ambiance however was fine. Service throughout the visit was slow and not friendly, which really took away from what could have been an enjoyable meal. With better customer service, this place could offer a much more positive experience, but based on this visit, it fell short. read more

We watched the Dodger World Series at the Yard House last night and had the best time ever thanks to our server Lauren. It was her 6th day on the job and she did fantastic!!! She continued to check us throughout the evening and made sure we good every chance she could. We will be coming back again thanks to Lauren. She was so kind to my wife and I, and our friends. She sang happy birthday with us which was so much fun. Our friends and I had such amazing time and with humans like Lauren they really make a difference. Ohhhhh and the pretzel is soooo good and is a must have! Thank you for hiring her! Go Dodgers! read more

The Yard House in Rancho Mirage is a fun spot, but it has one major weakness. The good: The atmosphere is fun and lively, the service is excellent, fast, and friendly, and the beer list is impressive with over a hundred options. There are also plenty of big TVs showing sports. Great place to hang out. The not so great: The food just doesn't live up to the rest of the experience. We sat at the bar and ordered the guac and chips, spicy tuna stack, and three taco combo, and none of them were good. The tuna stack in particular was disappointing, with a mix of mid-quality tuna, salty guacamole, and an overpowering wasabi sauce. I wasn't expecting fine dining, but it was close to inedible. The place itself has great energy so I'd come back for the beer and good vibes alone. read more

So I finally tried the fish & chips & unfortunately it was more batter than fish, coleslaw was mushy & fries tasted stale.. My favorite mocktail I always ordered was taken off the menu. Service was a bit slow & ambiance was off. Also ordered poke nachos as a favorite appetizer but all the poke was portioned in the middle with a lack of chips to fully enjoy... read more

This is a very fun place. A lot of beers and ample seating. Yes it's a chain, but I love it anyway. Probably one of the best burgers around. Fries and a great tasting sliced pickle. Two tacos are tasty too. Had the birria taco and carne asada, both are so good. Rice and beans mixed sounded odd but tastes great, especially with the birria sauce over it. The only complaint is it takes a long time to get your meal, even if the restaurant is not busy. Allow a bit of time for your meal. read more

Had dinner here while taking a mini vacay in Palm Desert. It was pretty busy. The service we received was amazing and we couldn't get over the quality of the food. It was so good. I have been to a few YardHouse's because I really like it, but this location had the best tasting food by far. Just had to give kuddos to the chefs! Our server was great, Im sorry I forgot his name. We had the Penne-a la vodka pasta , Lettuce wraps appetizer and mac and cheese! So delicious! Will stop again next time Im in town. read more

This was my first time visiting a Yard House since I moved to the west coast. Great experience. I sat at the bar and received attentive and pleasant service from Tori and Athena. The Thai Pork Chop was a great seasonal dish with bold flavors in a plate that you didn't feel guilty for eating. I can't wait to try the version they do for Oktoberfest that Athena told me about! The beer list was on brand for YH with a solid mix of local options alongside their standard corporate menu. read more

Food was definitely mediocre at best. The service was very bad at this location. We made a reservation for 8 people they tried to squeeze us at a table of 6 and when we asked for a different table the manager came to tell us no because they were too busy to clean any other tables off. So we had to separate our party and then our food came 20 min apart. Would not recommend this location at all! read more

Yard House - Happy hour menu - New American Near Me - Rancho Mirage, California

Happy hour is the time to go!! Almost all appetizers are half off (so around 8 dollars each including pizza) and such big portions! Service there is mostly very prompt and convenient. Alcohol is also 2$ off! The place is absolutely humongous but don't be surprised if it's packed with a line out of the door! It's busy for a reason, a great place to eat and drink with friends even on a budget! Would pass on the lavender martini and stick to their orange cream martini! 8/10 definitely will come again! read more

Yard House - Lavender drop and Edamame - New American Near Me - Rancho Mirage, California

We arrived at Yard House and were greeted pleasantly and told the wait would be 15-20 minutes. Unfortunately, we ended up waiting about 40 minutes right near the host stand and never heard our name called or received a text. We later found out we had been accidentally crossed off the list, but they were able to seat us immediately once it was caught. Our server, Brianda, was great- very pleasant and attentive throughout the meal. Drinks took a bit longer than expected, and we were told it was due to the restaurant being busy and a ticket issue. The food was really good: the cheese curds were delicious, the steak bowl and shrimp kabobs were flavorful (just a bit heavy on raw onion in the bowl), and the Korean BBQ cheesesteak was amazing according to my husband. Restaurant was clean and lively. Overall, a good experience with a few hiccups that can happen during busy times read more

Great service, terrible food. I ordered the beef and noodles. The dish looked like something from Panda Express--a sloppy mix of clumped noodles and meat, but without the flavor. The vegetables were almost non-existent, and the few that were there were mushy. The beef was dry and overcooked, and the noodles were stuck together as if they were just dumped out of a bag without being separated. I hope the kitchen improves because the waitstaff deserves better. read more

This was my first visit to a Yard House and I was impressed. I met friends for their happy hour which was a real deal.

The Yard House is always a comfortable sports bar atmosphere with TV's and different sports on each one. Party of 3 celebrating a 70th birthday. Ordered a Sirloin steak, which was perfectly cooked with a side of garlic mashed potatoes and carrots. I had the Vampire carnitas tacos which were very tasty and my sister in law had the fish and chips which was way too much for one person. Cocktails were delicious, as well. The cheese curds appetizer were over the top delicious and we should have stopped there because we were so stuffed we could barely walk. The best part of the evening was Clarissa, our waitress. She provided excellent service with just enough sass to keep us laughing and having an enjoyable birthday celebration. read more

I came to this place last year and just came again this year. I got similar dishes and honestly this year's dishes taste better than last year's!

We came at happy hour and some of the appetizers were half off and we were excited but we were a little underwhelmed by the service and she mixed up the orders.
