    Kurobuta Pork Burger
    Melinda N.

    Ordered the Kurobuta pork burger which was tasty. The blueberry jam was interesting. Service was great. I liked that you can pay separately. Ambiance is what you would expect in a sports bar

    Garlic Beef Noodles

    Lobster garlic noodles were the best! Worth the price. Service was great and we went for lunch during the week so it wasn't too busy!

    Wasn't hungry, but those shortage Shiitake Garlic Noodles are hitting right

    Came here after checking out the Riverwalk cruise which launches from below because it was kinda late and the restaurants were closed and my niece what starving. We came in and they were able to seat us easily. I got chicken wings and she got noodles. Nothing was stellar, but it was fine. I feel like this place is more fun with your friends than your teenage niece, because everyone else, from groups of businessmen to fiend groups seemed to be having a blast, while the two of us were just staring at each other. I've been to a Yard House before and if you've been to one, you've b even to them all and you. Know the decor is clean, dark, and fancy. Corporate clean is how I'd describe it.

    I normally don't visit chains while travelling, but I was pretty impressed with this Yard House location. The portions were great, the food was great and the service was also on point for our large group. They had a lavender cocktail that was also pretty good.

    Stopping here to eat!

    We were in town for Foursquare Connect 2026 and ended up eating here twice. The first visit was for dinner, and I ordered the burger. It was really good--juicy, flavorful, and definitely worth ordering. The only downside was that it took about 30 minutes for our food to arrive, and we were seated right next to the bar during a Spurs game. Let's just say my wife and I learned to communicate through lip reading and interpretive gestures because we couldn't hear each other over the crowd! Our second visit was for lunch, and my wife and I split a sandwich, which was also very good. What really stood out this time was our server. She was outstanding--friendly, attentive, cheerful, and on top of everything we needed. Great service always makes a meal even better, and she absolutely delivered. Overall, we had a good experience both times. The food was solid, the service on our second visit was excellent, and we'd definitely come back. Just one suggestion: if it's game day and you're hoping for a quiet conversation, ask to sit away from the bar...unless, of course, you enjoy shouting sweet nothings across the table!

    I came to San Antonio for a conference and stayed at a hotel conveniently located next to the Yard House, which is why I decided to have dinner there on my first night. It was very convenient after a long travel day. Since it was a Saturday night, the restaurant was quite crowded. As I was dining alone, I opted to sit at the bar to avoid the wait and I'm glad I did. My meal was excellent; the salmon was especially delicious and cooked perfectly. The bar attendant was incredibly attentive, friendly, and made the experience feel very welcoming. Overall, I was genuinely impressed by this location. The LA franchises could definitely learn from the level of service and hospitality here.

    Shiitake Garlic Noodles

    visited the Yard House last month during March Madness. It was located across the street from my hotel so that a huge plus. I did not want to have to deal with an uber. The Riverwalk was to packed with tourists. I sat at the bar as i wanted to watch March Madness. The guests I was seated next to were nice enough to let me change the channel to see basketball game I wanted to see so that was a plus. The music playing was great upbeat classic rock. The entrance to the restaurant is one floor up from the street on Commerce. Maddy was very pleasant and provided service with a smile. She was very attentive to all customers. I ordered the garlic shiitake noodles and crispy Brussels sprouts along with a tall double captain and Coke Zero. Everything was great. Before a concert I wanted something that wouldn't mess with my sensitive stomach. I enjoyed my experience so much that I returned the following day and ordered the exact same thing. Enjoyed it just as much the second time around.

    Stopped by Yard House and had a really solid experience. They have a long list of vegetarian options. The Gardein menu can be found online or ask waiters and they have it on their device. I tried the Gardein Orange Chicken along with their pretzel, and both were seriously good. The orange chicken had great flavor with just the right amount of sweetness and kick, and the pretzel was warm, soft, and perfect for sharing. Service was attentive, the atmosphere was lively, and everything came out just right. Definitely a spot I'd come back to.

    Stopped by while in town visiting and met up with my wife's cousins at yard house for a quick bite. It was pretty packed but was able to get a table for all of us. I ordered the chicken tacos and rice and beans which was pretty good and filling. I also had an IPA flight that was pretty darn good. The service was fast given the amount of people we had in our group and the restaurant was packed also. I'll come back the next time I'm in town.

    The drink... dragon fruit margarita
    Katresea S.

    Service was decent.We wait at hostess area for a while and the place was not crowded , food was horrible. The fries cold , and fish tacos not fresh at all. The drink was good . The ambiance was not impressive and we were seated at a table with broken bottom floor . If you are not careful you will slip and fall.

    chicken-avocade sandwich and fries
    Timmy S.

    Tired and hungry, we decided to have dinner across the street from our hotel at YardHouse at the Shops at Rivercenter. I hadn't been to a YardHouse for years and wasn't expecting much, so I ended up being pleasantly surprised. It was a weekday evening and we were immediately seated even though, to my eye, it seemed pretty busy. Our waiter was amiable and semi-attentive (meaning right when we would start to think "where is he?" he'd suddenly appear). I ordered a chicken-avocado sandwich and my wife ordered the Two Pepper Jack Burger. I got regular fries with my order and she upgraded to sweet potato fries. Her burger consisted of a thick beefy patty, roasted jalapeño & poblano peppers, pepper jack cheese, and chipotle ranch. My sandwich consisted of a hunk of grilled chicken with a cumin & chili rub, avocado, Swiss cheese, roasted tomatoes, arugula, and lemon-basil aioli on a toasted brioche bun. We decided to cut our sandwiches in half and share. The chicken sandwich was exceptional. The flavors burst in my mouth. One of the better chicken sandwiches I've ever had the pleasure to consume. The burger was also excellent, thick, tender, and juicy. While she thought the heat was minimal it made my eyes water...but I can barely handle even a tiny bit of heat. Still, I thought it was undeniably delicious. Our fries were also great, as was the sweet tea I ordered. As mentioned, I left with a smile on my face and a very happy tummy.

    Chicken Lettuce Wraps
    Kirra A.

    Yard House has the BEST happy hour. Monday-Friday 3-6PM all the appetizers are half off and this is such a great deal. All of their appetizers are so good, I love getting the lettuce wraps but we got a variety of apps for the table and we shared all of them. They also offer half off pizzas during their happy hour as well. Definitely come check out their happy hour if you're looking for some delicious food that isn't expensive!

    Shiitake Garlic Noodles
    Nancy M.

    One of our go-to dinner spots downtown! We love that we usually don't have to wait long for a table, which is always a plus. The drinks are consistently ice cold, and the cocktails definitely pack a punch. The garlic noodles are an absolute must every time--we never skip them. My husband always gravitates toward the fish and chips, which never disappoints. On this visit, I decided to try the calamari and... yum! Definitely adding that to my list of favorites. Always a solid choice for a great, reliable dinner downtown.

    Do you do reserved areas for parties of 50-75?

    I'm not sure for parties that large but, they do have an area that may accommodate you. I would just give them a call. The customer service was great!

    I'm still trying to find a place that my 22 mo son can eat at. We're vegetarian, no alliums (onion and garlic family), no peanuts, tree nuts, wheat, eggs, avocado and kiwi. Can he eat anything here that isn't plain rice or a piece of lettuce?

    Do you take reservations?

    Hey Janet! We don't take reservations. You can always call to see if we have our wait list available. Here's the number: (210) 354-3844

    What time do they stop serving food?

    Hey Lily! Sunday - Thursday our food last call is 12:30AM. Friday and Saturday it is 1AM.

    What is the parking situation? Parking lot? Parking garage? Is it in a mall?

    It's right outsize the big shopping center. Free parking is probably a no go but there is a parking garage next door. Although, it is right by the river walk, so park anywhere close by and enjoy the scene

    How late do they serve food?

    12:30 AM weekdays and 1 AM weekends

Note, you can ask to add salmon, chicken, or chicken sausage to anything We started with the Cilantro Coconut Guacamole, which was such a unique combo with blackberries and mesquite tortillas. We also started out by trying their soup of the day which was a Brazilian recipe and it was SO good. Fresh, comforting, and full of flavor. As far as entrees we ordered the Spice Route Beets were vibrant and flavorful. We added salmon on the side. We also ordered the Pharm Kitchari (with chicken sausage added) was wholesome and well balanced. Oh and the vanilla bean mesquite latte is sooo darn delicious. I had two and still want more. Smooth, slightly smoky, and not too sweet. If you want food that tastes clean, fresh, and delicious, this spot is a must.

However, this time I had something I hadn't tried before, which was the portobello torta, check the pic posted here, but I warn you, if a pic says 1k words, then a taste says a bagillion words (is that even English ?). But that's what happens when umami meets Mexican bliss. When your order is taken with pleasure and prepared before your eyes at this bustling establishment, it's flair mixed with fair. Go check out what has me coming back for more, time and time again. As I left, with my road tacs, the owner reminded me that the food travels well, I neglected to inform her that I didn't expect them to make it very far . Again, it's a must see scene here at Plantaqueria- hope to see y'all there.

(It had Just Egg but I think other things added with it. It felt that it was softer and lighter than if it was only Just Egg) and pico de gallo on handmade flour tortilla. We were surprised by how much we enjoyed it. Their two self-serve complementary salsas were also fun and creamy. Concha- Delicious and we liked the top of it. Maybe one of our favorite conchas. Elote hot cake - Came out really hot and was delicious. These are only available on weekends. I was tempted to get more but we had lots more food targets on the schedule. Torta with Asada was pretty good too. But the other items excited me more I think. The person at the front also gave us some samples of other taco fillings to try: the fillings of the La Ranchera: Potatoes and pico de gallo in salsa ranchera and also grilled nopales. My husband who is usually not as crazy as me about nopales liked them here. They have mole on the weekends but it's not housemade from scratch. They use premade mole and add some more things to it so we skipped that one. My general rating system: 1 star: I would stay away 2 stars: Has some good things about it but I generally don't recommend. 3 stars: Pretty good. I wouldn't go out of my way to go back but a decent place 4 stars: Great place. I would go back. 5 stars: I highly recommend stopping whatever you are doing and making plans to try it out! An Evie favorite!

They were just finishing up a batch when I asked if they were dairy free, the employee told me that they were NOT dairy free due to the cream cheese frosting, but she had some cupcakes that were not frosted and could sell me one! I'm so happy about this because I was able to enjoyed a little treats and this cupcake was DELICIOUS 100/10, definitely recommend. I got my other coworker the cupcake with cream cheese My coworker ordered the Tender Chicken Breast with the Chili Love flavoring and ordered it was a side of Mac and Cheese. She really enjoyed the chicken but not a big fan of the Mac and cheese. I was IN LOVE with the seating options, it was all outdoor, provided entirely with shade, a couple of fans to keep the area nice and cool, and lots and lots of plants. They played some tropical latin salsa/jazz music which created such a peaceful atmosphere. I loved how they served the meals in biodegradable containers/plates. They do encourage you to recycle anything recyclable. They also ask that you clean and wipe down the table (which I was glad to do.) I had a great experience as they were able to accommodate my dietary preferences of being dairy free--I will definitely return for the vibe and to try more items on the menu.

The food offered during lunch/dinner is pretty good, but I do wish there were more expansive options. It is odd that there is not one tv at their bar (in case a hubby wants to watch a sports game lol) but I get it's not the vibe. Their brunch is ok but the price is not worth it. It's over $30 if you want the meat and things like cereal , bagels , and juice. Half the price if you only want the basic cereal yogurt and bagels. I would not recommend the brunch to anyone unless they are strictly going for the view. The view and vibe are stunning. The daytime vibe is much different than the nighttime so I highlyyyy recommend going for dinner and drinks. Make a reservation because it gets crowded. The coffee bar that's there early in the morning , which is probably more for the hotel guests because it's not open for long, was kind of a let down! I had the kindest barista that was easy to talk to. However half of their menu wasn't available because there was no matcha and apparently there hadn't been in weeks which is so unfortunate. They have tons of potential and have the right staff, so hopefully they fix that soon!
