| - My coworkers and I like to talk about food. We got on the topic of cheese curds one day, where I was taught the importance of breaded vs battered (battered is better!) and also where the best cheese curds in the Valley are. I was told that Yard House has good cheese curds, but was a bit expensive. When my family came into town and wanted to get American, it felt like the perfect moment. "Why not Yard House?"
We went on a Saturday for lunch. I hadn't looked at the menu beforehand, and thought the prices were a bit high; however, I was happily surprised to hear that the lunch combos were available daily. We ordered cheese curds (of course) to share, and my coworkers were right. The cheese curds were GOOOD. I especially loved the honey hot sauce that came with it, though my parents found the horseradish aioli the bigger star. Just thinking about them right now is making me hungry.
I got the shiitake garlic noodles with a kale caesar salad. Though the flavor was nice, the noodles were overcooked and seemed like they sat out for a while, because they were slightly congealed. The caesar had good textures and a nice lightness to it. My dad and brother got burgers, which they were also unimpressed by. All in all, a pretty average experience.
