    Spicy Jambalaya with noddles
    Kyla G.

    The ahi tuna nachos my sister loved. My jambalaya was not tasty lacked seasoning sent back. Had the pepperoni pizza was good. Service was ok little slow. Place had a heavy wait time and didn't call to say it's your turn instead sent a text saying ur removed from the list.

    Flight of beer

    I'm not going to lie, I've been to Yard Houses before but this one is the best one I've been to. They handled a busy waitlist amazingly with their text system and estimates being very accurate. They have a great upstairs area which was perfect for the evening. The bar was busy but rightfully so. The food was delicious and I loved the flight of beer that I had. They were local brews that tasted awesome! Would definitely recommend to anyone.

    Fried Calamari
    Justin P.

    Mannnnn Yardhouse tried it lol. I'm from NYC so it was my first time visiting this location, love the one at home, food is always banging. But I got disappointed this time. I ordered some Togo food. Ordered the Jambalaya and some Calamari. When they brought the food, the Jambalaya was on top of the Calamari and after some contemplating I think I know why. I've ordered Calamari many times and never was the portion this small. $16 for this?!? The kitchen definitely hid this on purpose and I hate myself for not checking the food like I normally do smh. Yardhouse I love you but do better

    This was my first time at Yard House and will certainly be my last at this location. I came with a coworker during our lunch today. We sat at the bar and placed our orders. It wasn't packed at all, but it still took over 20 minutes for anything to come out (our food came out before our drinks), and I think it's only because the manager came to check on us. I ordered traditional wings, but I received boneless. When I told our server, Tenai, there was no apology or remorse, just a look at the receipt saying it said traditional. The wings were decent, but not what I wanted, but I had to take them due to time. My coworker asked for some garlic aioli sauce to go, and even that was met with a sigh, like she was being asked for so much. When we asked for the check, I was still being charged for the traditional wings. This should have been rectified way before us getting the check. It was eventually fixed, but good customer service is severely lacking at the bar.

    Poke Nachos

    Their happy hour deals are really great but it can get pretty busy and take a while to get service. I got the poke nachos which were delicious. I'll definitely be back for happy hour again.

    Midnight sangria (red wine + remy)
    Donyiel C.

    Good for big groups! Over the last few months I've been in for happy hour with at least 10 and they were able to easily accommodate us. The happy hour specials are good. Not many happy hours around these days so it's nice to see this place thriving! I recently had the midnight sangria (red wine + remy). I only had one! It was nice and strong! Select apps are 50% off. I tried the sliders - comes with 4 and a side of fries. Definitely a great deal. I couldn't even finish them all. Our two servers were great. I only remember Naimah's name, but thank you both for your great service. It's so easy to pay on the app with the split check!

    The food here is always on point, lots of iption to choose from , about everything on the menu is good

    I've been here numerous times and its typically for happy hour and then other times it's very late at night. One important note is that there is no happy hour on game nights across the way at the arena and that's a shame. That's reason for one automatic star loss. There's mad events at Capital One Arena and for them to just cancel happy hour because something is happening down the street is nasty corporate America work. Now on to the food. It's always pretty good. I've never had a bad experience here. The bartenders are normally very engaging so that brings up the experience. Always try to get a seat at the bar because it's the most interesting. Table experiences remind you of just a regular casual dining experience.

    Crispy Traditional Wings - Buffalo
    Guillermo G.

    Fun atmosphere. Great beer and food. We enjoyed the Firecracker Shrimp, Buffalo Wings, and of course, the 20oz Bone-in Ribeye was fantastic.

    We were able to snag a table for two on a Thursday night. The service was a bust - the waitress seemed to be distracted and it took her quite a while to come around to take our orders (we were sharing apps and later learned we could've just done it ourselves on the tablet that was on the table). We shared the onion ring tower, queso dip, boneless wings and fries. My thoughts: Onion ring tower: came with two sauces, one of them was supposed to ranch but it was a bit flavorless. The onion rings had a nice batter and the portion could easily be shared with a bigger party. The boneless wings are fries were decent, nothing noteworthy. The wings did come with the same flavorless ranch sauce as the onion rings. The queso dip was a huge portion, could also be shared with a bigger party. It came with both chips and tortillas which was completely unexpected. The dip was the star of the show for me it terms of appetizers. It had a great flavor.

    Queso dip
    Chris T.

    We came here for a quick bite before we headed out to the game. We didn't have a wait time and the staff got us seated fairly quickly. The ambiance was yard house, since they are a chain restaurant. Our waitress was busy between us and a few other tables and the bar took awhile to make our drinks. Moving along to the food I wish we knew we could order our food sooner, we could've saved our waitress some time by putting the app orders in (which is all we ate) besides a side of fries. The queso dip was great of course and dipping the fries in there was also a good mix. The buffalo wings were absolutely tossed in the sauce and you could taste the heat of the buffalo. The onion ring tower was a hit as always because they were battered so well with that little chipotle sauce. Now the pineapple spritz drink was not that good as far as comparing to other hard houses I've been too. So that was disappointing. All in all, we got a lot of food pretty quickly and the price was good.

    Came here with coworkers during a conference last week and still think about some of the appetizers! The cornbread was absolutely delicious and the deviled eggs were as well. The winter beer was outstanding and everyone enjoyed their entrées. It was really crowded with a private event, but we were able to be seated at a snug table pretty quickly. Our server was fantastic and the ambience was perfect.

    Soooo.... we lucked up and it was restaurant week in DC and this is where we stopped for lunch. You know how it goes, one price for three courses and it was worth it. The server and the restaurant was a whole vibe. Super friendly and extremely helpful. Really enjoyed the food dishes. Went with a friend so we ordered different foods to try it out and nothing disappointed.

We grabbed a seat and did not wait long for our food to come out. I really enjoyed my burger and scarfed it down! I paid for sauces, which were tiny and super overpriced. Hubs enjoyed his cheesesteak but he prefers meat. I had a bite and thought it was really flavorful and very closely tasting like the real thing. I noticed later this is a chain, which is pretty cool. I think the prices were pretty steep so I might skip on the fries next time. The food could have been warmer as well. Definitely worth a visit and will most likely be back when in DC again.

The prices are reasonable (for this area) as well. I also like the space. It was bright and spacious, with almost an independent coffee shop vibe.

On the side, I added a Garlic Naan. We were looking for a quick meal. SpiceX delivered a good amount of flavor at fast food speeds. If you're looking for a sit-down experience, this location is at a bit of a disadvantage since all of these components are put into a plastic tray, everything is intermingling, and it looks like a mess. They only have plastic forks and knives (no spoons) which makes it hard to eat these saucy dishes. Lastly, since a lot of things are pre-made, they're not super hot and they don't adjust the spice level. My favorite thing about naan is it tastes like fresh bread from the oven, which you don't get here. Everything is very mild, and we normally get dishes mild to medium in heat level. If you can get past all that, I think all the flavors are pretty good and the price is very reasonable for the amount of food you get.

Options include salads, warm bowls and wraps, which you can choose from their list of creations, or craft your own. If creating your own, the full list of toppings wasn't super clear by just looking at the menu, so you basically just need to view the full selection once you get to the counter. I chose the SANTA FE salad ($10.49 + $3.49 for grilled chicken), a combination of avocado, corn, grape tomatoes, Pepper Jack cheese & crispy shallots atop romaine. When asked, I opted for a "regular" amount of dressing which was their sweet & smoky chipotle vinaigrette; it completely coated my salad. Others in my group asked for "light" dressing and thought it was enough. As my salad made it down the assembly line, I liked how they actually chopped it up while simultaneously mixing in the dressing and therefore thoroughly combined all the ingredients. Before topping the bowl with a lid, they will include a free piece of bread if you wish. I enjoyed my salad and the vinaigrette was very bold in flavor with a surprising spice... the heat grew with every bite! It indeed had a bit of sweetness as well to balance it out. They included a reasonable amount of chicken breast for the additional cost of $3.50. The pieces were tender, lean and of great quality. The romaine was fresh and I loved the crunch and added flavor from the fried shallots. Unfortunately, the bread was very dry, but given that it was free, I really have no complaints there. Overall, the portion size of my salad was fair as the bowl ran deep and it was filled to the top! It was truly a healthy, fulfilling lunch. Plus, they have great seating right outside with a view of the neighboring US Navy Memorial Plaza. Here's hoping Chopt will eventually make its way over to the Pacific Northwest!
