My husband and I came to the Mission Valley Mall to try out the new sushi place; however, they had a three-hour wait, so we decided to go to Yard House instead. It worked out perfectly because we actually had a gift card for Yard House. We arrived at Yard House around 3:30 PM, and the hostesses greeted us right away. There was no wait at all, so they seated us quickly. As two larger people, my husband and I really appreciated the comfortable booths they have. The lighting felt romantic and cozy, and while the bar area was a little loud, we understood that because of the sports playing on the TVs. We also really loved the music they were playing. Our server, Theresa, was so sweet and attentive. We ordered the spinach dip appetizer, the sliders with onion rings, and the carnivore pizza. My husband got the recommended pairing for the pizza, which was a Hefeweizen beer, and I just got water. They brought our food out in no time at all. The spinach dip was hot and very delicious, and it paired perfectly with their tortilla chips. My husband loved the carnivore pizza and his beer; it wasn't a heavily sauced pizza, but it had a lot of great flavor. My sliders were fresh and delicious, and I loved that they put the pickle chips on the side just in case I didn't like pickles. The onion rings were also hot and fresh, and I loved the batter on them--it had a hint of sweetness. We ended up with a lot of leftover food to bring home, and it was still great when we reheated it. We will definitely be back again! read more

Decided to come here because we had horrible service at BJ's so we came here to get a late night bite. We were seated right away and the place was packed because everybody was watching FIFA. We got a booth right across from the bar and it was nice because it was so lively and entertaining. They also had really good music playing in the background which added to the vibe. Our server was very nice. She came and took our order and also answered any questions that we had about any food items. We ordered spinach dip for the table, and it comes with these really hot and warm tortilla chips. We enjoyed that. We ordered a sandwich, a Caesar salad with avocado added, and fish and chips. Everything was delicious. For drinks: Booze Free Mojito, Another mocktail with pineapple, and a sprite. Everything was well prepared and delicious. We really enjoyed our dining here. The only thing I have to say is that I wish they would clean the booths underneath a little bit more. The whole time I dined I felt just dirt and debris under my feet under the booth, but otherwise everything was great. read more

Whoever is hiring and/or training the waitstaff at this Yard House is doing a great job. From the hostess who greeted us with a smile despite the all day World Cup fans line and sat us at a lovely booth to the two waiters who both provided very pleasant and prompt service throughout, the service here was well above bar compared to other SD spots in this category. Half price HH food deals and $2 off all draft beers was the lure for us, and the two Belgian taps that I tried really delivered. Unfortunately, the food was a let down. The onion ring tower was composed of sad, soft and underseasoned specimens. I appreciated that the HH tenders could be ordered as a Gardein veg version, which was decent but the accompanying fries tasted like they'd been sitting out too long. However, I did really enjoy the honey mustard sauce here. I sum, while the food was either just ok or total miss here, the excellent service and solid beers make Yard House - Mission Valley mall worth a repeat HH visit. read more

I went in on a busy Saturday afternoon and sat at the bar. Staff were really friendly. I ordered the queso appetizer and half of a barbecue chicken salad. The food came out quickly. The queso was fine, but had a very weird mouth feel. Like it didn't feel like cheese. It comes with tortillas and tortilla chips. I did not eat very much of it. The barbecue chicken salad was fine. A little too many beans for me which I was not expecting. But it's a fun place to go with a big menu. Tons of beer to choose from. read more

Haven't been here in a long while but they do have good happy hour deals which is exactly what I went for. Service is a hit or miss depending on how busy they are.

They have a nice happy hour menu! Came in for dinner with a couple of my work gals. The inside is spacious & we were seated at a big booth in the back.

Yard House - Poke Nachos - Vegetarian Near Me - San Diego, California

I genuinely don't know how it took me this long to try Yard House happy hour because this might be one of the best happy hour deals I've found in San Diego. This review is actually from two separate visits because after the first one I already knew I needed to come back. The Mission Valley location is huge with booths, bar seating, high tops, and plenty of room for bigger groups. I went once around 3:30 PM and once around 5 PM. If you're trying to avoid a wait, definitely go earlier. At 3:30 there were plenty of open tables. At 5 PM the place was packed with people getting off work and we had to hop on a waitlist. We were quoted 20 minutes but got seated much quicker than that. The biggest thing you need to know is that the happy hour food is 50% off. Most dishes end up being around $5 to $10 which is honestly kind of crazy considering the portion sizes. To start, I ordered the Paloma and this thing was good. It had tequila, grapefruit, citrus agave, and a salted rim. Super refreshing and balanced. Not too sweet and definitely a generous pour. Later on I got an espresso martini which was also really solid. Smooth, strong enough to give you that little coffee kick, and honestly a perfect after dinner cocktail. Now for the food. The chicken lettuce wraps were easily one of my favorite things I tried. The chicken had a great ginger-forward marinade and a nice charred flavor. It comes with both peanut sauce and sweet chili sauce and both were delicious. The crazy part was the portion size. We filled every lettuce cup and still had chicken left over. This is a must-order. The sliders were good too. Nothing life changing but exactly what you'd want from a slider. Juicy burger, cheese, pickles, fries on the side. My partner loved these way more than I did because he's a burger person. The calamari though? Skip it. There was way too much breading and not enough calamari. The pieces were small, kind of rubbery, and the breading didn't have much seasoning. It came with a jalapeño tartar sauce and a spicy tomato sauce. The jalapeño sauce was actually pretty good but it wasn't enough to save the dish. We barely touched it and left most of it behind. The poke nachos were another favorite and I've ordered them both visits. They're not going to compete with a dedicated poke spot but for happy hour they're really good. The sweet soy ginger sauce is what makes the whole dish for me. My second visit actually had way more ahi and avocado too which made it even better. The only thing I'd probably change next time is getting the truffle sauce on the side because it kind of takes over the whole dish. I also got the crème brûlée cheesecake because that name sounds amazing. Unfortunately it was just okay. It wasn't bad. It just wasn't memorable. It tasted like regular cheesecake with a crème brûlée top. The berries on the side helped but I wouldn't order it again. During my second visit we tried the Korean garlic boneless wings, Wisconsin cheese curds, and crispy Brussels sprouts. The wings were fine. The sauce just didn't have enough flavor to make them stand out. I did love the generous amount of green onions on them. The cheese curds, however, were delicious. Ridiculously cheesy inside, but i wish they were crispier on the outside. The hot honey sauce paired really well with them. Also the portion is massive, so definitely order these with people. The absolute star of the entire review is the Brussels sprouts. Whatever sauce they use on these should be bottled and sold. They're sweet, garlicky, salty, tangy, and completely addictive. I kept reaching for them over everything else on the table. These will be ordered every single time I come back. Yard House is absolutely worth checking out for happy hour. The service has been great both visits, the portions are huge, and the prices are hard to beat. read more

Honestly I looked at all of the photos of this place was I was genuinely scared to come here. The food dish photos looked questionable. But, don't believe everything you see on here, I was pleasantly surprised. Definitely a fun bar vibe, lots of food on the menu like literally endless, similar to cheesecake factory. The cheese curds were good but super greasy and the salad was genuinely huge I only got through like 1/3 of it. The service was okay, and they did completely mess up my mom's order but besides that decent. read more

Great place to watch a sports game as they have plenty of TVs throughout the restaurant. The happy hour is my favorite time to go as they have discounts on drinks and food. You can pretty much have dinner from the happy hour menu as it includes half off on the pizzas. The service here is really good as they always seem to be well staffed. The restaurant is super spacious, but can get a little loud read more

Yard House - My fav adult beverage....hard pineapple cider - Vegetarian Near Me - San Diego, California

Decided to try this place after hearing all about their happy hour deals. We tried a few appetizers, poke nachos, gardein wings, sliders, & the buffalo chicken pizza. Unfortunately, we were disappointed in all the food. The only dish I thought was decent was the truffle fries, which we upgraded with the sliders. Other than that, I honestly would not pay full price for the food. This place is pretty pricey for the quality you get. read more

Stopped in for a drink before a movie and I loved the Draft BlackBerry pear by Bücha - it's a hard kombucha brewed in San Diego using organic, California grown blackberries and bartlett pears from local farms. Staff were quick to help me at the bar and they were friendly too. The space was crowded - it was a Friday night and there was a sports game on. read more

I hope soon they will offer lattes with different milk substitutes read more

Except Onion rings were meh even with ranch. Mission Valley Mall is undergoing a facelift and we approve. Yay! read more

YARDHOUSE @ MISSION VALLEY Parking is super easy since they have a gigantic lot. It's located in Mission Valley Mall, so the parking is shared with places like Outback Steakhouse, a bunch of shopping centers, and Target. We parked right behind Target, which was only about a couple minutes' walk to Yard House. This was my very first time going to Yard House and I kid you not their happy hour deal is insane. They have half off a huge list of appetizers Monday through Friday from 3 PM to 6 PM and again after 10 PM to closing. They also offer select drinks at half off. We got there around 5:30 PM and were seated pretty quickly. The space itself has more of a darker vibe, which honestly makes it really nice for a date night. It's also a big sports bar, but the layout is super beautiful and well-designed. There were definitely a lot of families there too, so it feels casual and welcoming overall. I ordered the poke nachos, which come with tuna and crispy wonton chips. I opted out of cilantro and green onions. My friends got the chicken lettuce wraps, Brussels sprouts, and chicken tenders with fries. The portions were way bigger than I expected, it honestly felt like I ordered a full entrée. Unfortunately, my food didn't come out for about 20 minutes after my friends had already gotten theirs. However, the manager and our server were super kind and apologetic. They even took it off my bill because it had been brought to the wrong table. They handled the situation really well, which I appreciated. The poke nachos were so delicious, everything tasted super fresh, the wonton chips were perfectly crispy, and I loved the sweet sauce they drizzled on top. Overall, I would definitely recommend stopping by Yard House during happy hour. After 6 PM, it did seem like the crowd died down a bit, but happy hour is definitely the move if you can make it. The environment is great, the deals are amazing, and it's a solid spot to check out. read more

Happy hour is available Mon-Fri 3-6. They also have a late night happy hour but I'm too old for that. Their HH menu has more food items and as non alcohol consumers we thought this would be the place to go. Everything was ok, except for the crispy Brussels sprouts. They weren't crispy and they tasted old. They were drowned in some sweet sauce. Anyway... avoid. Their pizzas were decent but too wet. The center droops lower than the stomach of a 600 lbs patient post weight loss. Sliders were ok too but lacked flavor. Idk what happened to their poke nachos but it was mostly chips with tiny pieces of tuna sprinkled around. Their cheese dip was a hit but the chips were a tad stale. For the price, the volume of food was great, quality was meh, service was 10/10. read more

I had an absolutely amazing experience here. Our server Stephanie was the best and honestly made my experience here even better. We were seated immediately and came just in time for happy hour - which is half off appetizers. We decided to order a bunch of apps and split between us. We got the sliders, poke nachos, tenders, Brussels sprouts, and chicken lettuce wraps. For the price ($8-$10) for each item it was so worth the money. The portions were such a great size and the food tasted amazing! I really liked the sliders and chicken lettuce wraps. Nothing was dry and the flavor was amazing. Overall I would highly recommend coming for happy hour. The vibes of the restaurant were amazing and I absolutely loved our server Stephanie so huge shout out to her! Definitely coming again read more

I lovee it here. The food always hits. Never do I not order the poke nachos. That aioli sauce is to die for and my fav is the Korean ribeye steak. Soooo good and they always cook it just how I ask and like it. The burgers are delicious too. My mom had ordered the seafood pasta and it was pretty good as well. It can get pretty loud for ambiance but it's kind of like a sports bar so it's to be expected. The wait can be a little long on busy nights but that just means it's popular. They also seat for big crowds and is able to split the bill in many ways which I lovee. Always good vibes and a great experience when I come. read more

Had HH here a little while back. Yardhouse HH is always a good deal! They offer most of their appetizers and all of their pizzas at 50%! The place was busy when we arrived, around 5pm, but our party of 5 was able to be seated right at a booth. Our server was very friendly and he checked up on us often. We were able to place our food orders using the tablets on the table, and our food was brought out quickly, one or two at a time, and just minutes apart. Their cheeseburger sliders are simple, but the beef is flavored so well, it's so good! Comes with fries you can upgrade for onion rings or sweet potato fries. Poke nachos and chicken nachos is also a fam favorite and you get so much. YH definitely has a lively, social, busy atmosphere. Check it out! read more

Came here on Valentine's Day and, as expected, it was pretty busy. Even without a reservation, the hostesses were attentive and stayed on top of the waitlist -- we were seated within about 35 minutes, which wasn't bad at all considering the crowd. This was our first time at the Mission Valley location and overall it was a great experience. The food was good overall. The only downside was the rice and beans that came with the taco flight -- they didn't taste very fresh. Also, one of our plates was still dirty when we're getting sat but I'm sure it was unintentional.. Aside from that, everything else was great. Our server was attentive and made sure we were well taken care of the entire time. My only complaint would be that we'd wish we had a cleaner table and clean plates. read more

There was a lull in which we haven't visited this place in about 8+ years and now that we've come back to reexperience Yardhouse it's safe to say we've never been happier coming back! The Poke Nachos are still just as delicious as I remembered them years ago and it is hard to beat that level of delicious consistency! We've been back for happy hour for about 5 times now in the last 2 months so that should speak for itself The ambience is dim but welcoming and relaxing yet not too obnoxiously loud, the servers are always so sweet, courteous, professional, warm and welcoming, diligent in filling water and 1/2 yard orders We've ordered the Blackened Sashimi, calamari, truffle mushroom pizza (10/10), poke nachos (10/10), The Sliders (they come with a side of fries but our little one likes mac and Cheese so we sub the fries for that) ,buffalo chicken pizza We always get the 1/2 yard blackberry kombucha it's delicious but proceed with caution it's a creeper haha **You can always wait in line through the website just in case The beauty of happy hour here is eating family style and it doesn't break the bank and you leave full ! Next time I want to try the carnivore pizza and the Brussel sprouts for sure Trust me and try this place out to unwind or even as a little outing afterwork! No regrets read more

We stoped by this place inside the mall for drinks party of 8 this Friday evening, everything from the greeting host to the server was excellent, we ordered drinks and appetizers I love the jumbo pretzel with cheese, the cheese spinach dip was delicious, I ordered the Filet Mignon, cheese mash and veggies dinner (perfect). and of course I had the famouse Yard beer of your choice !! I love how this place light setting was dimmed and romantic felt we had more privacy, we just walked in no reservations were needed. we will be back soon. read more

The first Yard House I dined at was in DTLA downtown LA, next to the Crypto Arena formerly the Staples Center. I liked it then and it like here in Mission Valley, San Diego. Plenty of free parking in the lot is a major plus. While the Yard House's claim of fame is the array of beer selection, that's not why I like it. The many TV monitors, the variety of foods ranging from bad to the bone bar food, to food porn and healthier options is why I like it. If I can watch one of my favorite college or professional teams play and have a descent meal and drink ins clean place with great service, I'm thrilled. Have dined here for almost a couple of years. Almost everything I've ordered from salads, appetizers, pizzas and wine were all good and have repeat ordered: the ahi poke, the blackened ahi sashimi, Salmon with salad, Brussel sprouts, Truffled mushroom pizza have been my repeat orders worth mentioning. I have sent back some foods for being subpar ie being overly fried or overly salty. If you can drop in during HH=happy hours, some of these are half price and that means you scored!! It would better if HH was offered on Saturdays too. It's not a dive but not a fancy place either. I especially like that it's clean, casual and sports bar lounge vibe where a solo diner or a group of diners including kids are welcome. Every time I've visited, the staff from the hostess, wait staff and servers have been helpful, nice and accommodating. Recommend read more

Happy hour here was so fun and delicious. For only $55 my gf and I got poke nachos, buffalo chicken pizza, chicken tenders combo, 2 cocktails and a beer. All of which are better than the average chain restaurant. Service was so accommodating, friendly, and attentive. I wasnt quite satisfied with the poke ratio on the nachos and staff literally sent another one out for us at no extra charge, no hassle, no problem. Love them for that. This location was a pretty lively one. I enjoyed the dark blue overhead lighting and the golden tones. Really clean for how many people were dining at the time. Lots of seating, there was a long line and we still got seated within 5-10 min. Would def come back for another happy hour read more

Been to different yard houses before and overall, food here is solid. I think the happy hour deal here is a steal and so worth it because the portions are the normal portions you would typically get. The poke nachos are definitely a must try, and I typically like ordering the mushroom garlic noodles. The buffalo chicken was ok when we went and the pizza was good but I wish there were more mushrooms since that's the only topping. Good service, good vibes and when the game was on when we went, you could hear the game all around the restaurant, so if you're a sports person, this is the place to go watch games! read more

Went late night on a Thursday and it was busy! Friendly service and friendly hostess. Huge! A bit loud with the game and so many people. If you don't mind loud this is the place for you. Good food, good size menu with a wide variety. Tuna appetizer is a must! Lemon pepper wings juicy but need a bit more seasoning. Get ranch to dip. Delicious pizza see pictures! With juicy tomatoes Shrimp appetizer so good. Sliders were overcooked. We let the server know and he was kind enough to take it off. Big comfy booths! Lots of tables that can be pushed together for large parties. Clean restroom. Our server was slammed so service was not as good as I hoped. We kept waiting for refills. The place is huge with a ton of games playing g on a ton of TV's. We ordered a ton of food and shared it family style! The food comes out in various times. Which was good for family style dining. I'd go back! Lots more I wanted to try. Big bar area with a wide variety of beer and drinks! Booths were a bit dark at night. Had to get the flashlight off the phone to read the menu. read more

Came here for dinner on a friday night. I would say that though the staff was friendly, my friend and I kept having to ask or remind the staff of things they forgot. For example, the food came out before our drinks, so i had to ask for them. I was missing my truffle fries (appetizer) when our main dishes came out first, had to ask for that. I was missing ranch when I had asked for it when we placed our order. I still like yard house, I do think their food is delicious, but was just disappointed a bit in the service. I know our waiter was trying his best but it just seemed to be lagging in that department. As for food, my friend had to ask for more rice for her tuna dish, it literally looked like 1 teaspoon of rice. I got the vampire tacos which was good, however, I didn't know the beans would be on top of the rice.... I kinda wish they were separated because I typically don't eat beans on top of rice like that. The winterberry cider (i think that's what it was called) was delicious though! Overall, the visit wasn't horrible, but it wasn't the best. read more

This place is great for an after work hangout with co workers or for date night with your significant other. 10/10 times I'll order the poke nachos because they are my favorite thing to snack on while drinking a couple of beers. There salty, sweet, and slightly spicy. I always get a little sauce on the side for dipping. As far as service goes, I've never had a negative experience here. I always feel welcomed and right at home. The beer and cider selections take up most of the menu so there's a beer for everyone.
