| - The last time the hubby and I were in Vegas we did the High Roller ride, and after we got done I noticed all of the new restaurants, shops, and Linq hotel down in this area. The Yard House particularly caught my eye and I said on our next visit this was a place that we would eat! Almost a year later, we were back and I was ready to give this place a try! We came to this location on a Saturday, after spending all day in the pool. We arrived around 3pm and there were very few people in here(guess we missed the lunch traffic). We were immediately greeted and taken to our table. For some reason we were seated with the waiter that was doing the most that day. One gentleman came by to get our drink order because our waiter was at another table. Finally, our waiter came and gave us the initial greeting. After he gave us time to look over the menu, another waitress came with our drinks. After a few more minutes our waiter finally returned to take our order. Let me tell you the menu here is EXTENSIVE! There is something here for everyone! They also have a full bar and over 100 different beers. My husband ordered a salad, I ordered a taco (I believe it was the Baja fish taco) and artichoke crab and lobster dip, and my brother ordered calamari and a burger with fries. The crab dip and calamari came out first---with a different waiter. Let me start with the artichoke dip-- how you do you say WONDERFUL!! This is some of the best artichoke, crab, and lobster dips I have ever had-- we finished this in minutes of it reaching the table. The calamari was pretty good the only issue was the restaurant fries pieces of lemon peels and mixed it in with the fried calamari and I ate a lemon peel and wasn't happy with the tart taste. My taco was delicious! Everything on the taco was fresh and it was well put together. My brother's burger was massive. I didn't care to taste it but I took a piece of his yummy bacon from the burger and some of his fries. My husband opted to be healthy and eat a salad. His salad was actually pretty tasty along with one of the house dressings and chicken that was on it. I also ordered the House Tropic cocktail. It was ok, didn't find it to really peak my taste buds. At the end it was hard for us to find our waiter--they really over booked him--- so we tracked down another waiter and asked for our check. The price of food is decent in my opinion and the atmosphere in here makes you feel like you're in cool local bar and no longer in Vegas. Really enjoyed our meal here!
