| - We've wanted to try the Yard House for awhile, and we finally achieved that goal this past weekend. It was a wonderful experience, probably the best we've had at a chain style restaurant.
Our server was very friendly without being pushy. She let us know that she was there of we had questions, but she didn't hover over us.
The drinks we ordered were delicious - little pricy compared to some other places, but they tasted good.
Now to the food....I honestly cannot say enough about how amazingly yummy the food was. My boyfriend cannot stop talking about the garlic shitake noodles that he had! I got the crispy brussel sprouts and ripped potatoes for an appetizer, the dish was very tasty. A good amount for the size of an appetizer - the boyfriend and I shared it and still took some home.
The entrees were 2 of the best entrees we've ever had anywhere. I ordered the Blackened Gardein Chicken Torta and he had the Gardein orange peel chicken. Gardein chicken is a faux meat, and the yard house is one of the very few places to offer literally a whole section of choices. They expertly prepared the dishes, infused so much flavor and spice into both, it was heaven in my mouth. I must say, the fries that came with my sandwich were pretty weak though. I wish I had been offered a choice of sides because the Uber skinny fries are not a fave.
It was not cheap to eat here, so unfortunately, we won't be back very often. But it is a new restaurant that we will try to go to at least once a month. If you're looking for a place to go for a nicer dinner, without being all fancy pants, this may be a good place.
