The first is the consistency of the food. There have been ongoing issues with keeping regular food items in stock. It has been disappointing when we go and hope to get certain items and they have a substitute which is not even close to being good. Also the past two summers the restaurant is ridiculously hot, The AC is obviously not working. We feel so bad for the staff. It's 95 degrees and its cooler outside than inside the restaurant. One time we went and it smelled of BO because everyone was so hot. Unfortunately we won't go back during the summer because it's just so miserable. Hopefully they can do a better job of taking care of their staff.

WaterFire Restaurant & Bar, 4000 Creekside Loop,…read moreYakima, WA98908. First time here on Ryan's recommendation. We had a wonderful celebratory graduation dinner. The food and cocktails were amazing, service excellent. The restaurant was a standalone building on the outskirt of Yakima. It's a bit more upscale with a nice and warm ambiance. Definitely recommended. Will come again if/ when I'm in the area. ~ Cod Fish & Chips ~ Ribeye Steak ~ Filet Mignon ~ Togarashi Seared Hawaiian Ahi Tuna ~ WaterFire French Dip ~ Mac & Cheese ~ Wagyu Cheeseburger ~ Roasted Pineapple Mai Tai ~ Ultimate Lemon Drop ~ Dragon's Breath (this one is not for me, it's way too sweet)

The "kuro-buta" (direct translation: black pig) pork chop was fantastic. It was the special of the day. I hope they put it on the regular menu. It was so tasty. The French Dip and Chicken Alfredo also got high marks at our table. Highly recommended!

Clean restaurant and pretty standard menu. Here is how our…read moremeal stacked up: Torta: Great, though it definitely needed a good sauce to bring it all together. Tacos: Super flavorful and well cooked, but really craved a vibrant green salsa to elevate them. Mole Enchiladas: Just okay, nothing special compared to the rest of the meal. Sides: The rice was delicious and well seasoned, but the beans fell a bit flat. Service: There was only one waitress handling the entire front of the house. She was super prompt at first, and even when it started filling up, she stayed completely on top of things. Major props to her for working the floor solo so smoothly!

Had dinner at Texas Roadhouse in Yakima and overall it was a really solid meal…read more I got the 28 oz bone-in ribeye, which is obviously a huge steak, and it was really good. Mine came out just slightly more done than I ordered, but honestly not enough to bother me much. With a steak that large, especially around the bone, I was kind of expecting some variation in the cook anyway. Most of it was right where I wanted it and the flavor was excellent. My date got the full rack of ribs and those were also really good. We both got baked potatoes, although I went with the baked sweet potato, and everything on the sides was cooked well. We also had a few margaritas. I had a couple of the spicy ones and they were really good, definitely better than I expected from a chain steakhouse. The peanuts were a nice snack too and I ended up taking some home. Our server was excellent. I unfortunately cannot remember his name, but he was a younger guy and did a great job throughout the meal. He was attentive without hovering and everything came out smoothly. Overall, this was exactly what I want from Texas Roadhouse. Big portions, a good steak, solid drinks, and great service. I would definitely come back if I am in Yakima again.

On our road trip we decided to stop by Texas Roadhouse for lunch. It's pretty easy to get to since…read moreit's right off of I-82. Kailee was our server. If you want a good dining experience, try and sit in her section. The manager stopped by and welcomed us to the restaurant since some of the folks in our group had never been to a Texas Roadhouse before. It's like Jimmy Mac's in Federal Way but with less flair. Even though the restaurant was pretty busy the food came out in a timely manner. They cook a pretty good sirloin. We shared entrees because I knew from a previous visit that portion sizes are pretty large.

Crafted is an upscale restaurant with a menu that changes but is always locally sourced. Be sure to get your reservation beforehand as this restaurant is not open every day plus it's popular. There is a parking lot that is ample. Upon entering you will notice a clean, friendly and trendy vibe. Oh and the menu is for sharing so your table gets to try a variety. I loved the carrot dish and the cauliflower. They were special eve though I wouldn't ordinarily say that about vegetables. The round bread was soft and the pasta was phenomenal. The Zabuton steak had a nice favorite but if was my least favorite. This dinner was incredibly good and I will be back!

Unlike many restaurants, Second Street Grill steps up to the plate and delivers on its promises. From the moment we were seated, our server Natalie became our most trusted advisor. She answered questions and was super helpful. She was buoyant and just amazing. The wait time was not forever, and the food was hot and tasty. No need to ask for refills, because Natalie kept on top of her duties like a boss. Now. I ordered fish and chips. The expectation was those little diamond shaped fish pucks with some shoestring fries. Nope. It came straight through a wormhole from an Irish pub. I would swear to it. The most delicious outside of halibut that I caught myself. I gotta go cuz the wife is ready, but... DO NOT MISS THIS OPPORTUNITY!!!!!
