    Salad soup steak cocktails and a bunch of potatoes
    Maui J.

    Assistance - Balance - Cleanliness + Deliciousness - Environment + Our server seemed put out and rushed us. The amount of food for the price was off balance, less food for the expense. Restaurant and restrooms were clean. Filet Mignon was freezer burned and cooked frozen, indicators were obvious, rare inside full of water, charred burned outside. The environment was wonderful, as most Cool Hand Luke's locations, very western. I cannot give this location more than 2 stars. Sorry.

    I only came back because my son won an award for a Free kids dinner here, and I am so glad I did!! I ordered the steak burger meal and it was the best Hamburger/steak I have ever had in my life!!! I just can't believe how delicious it was!! I will definitely be back to order rhe the same thing!! So good! Our waitress was also amazing too!!

    Walked in and got sat right in. Waiter was very nice and charismatic. She could have checked in a bit more , but besides that the food was great. Everything tasted fresh, my steak was cooked perfect. You never miss cool hand Luke's!

    Went to early dining here on a weekday. Service was good; wasn't crowded. They have an early dining menu before 6pm Sunday thru Thursdays and a special for selected drinks. All meals come with campfire beans ( which were nice and spicy ) and some delicious rolls with garlic butter. Ambiance is laid back almost like your at a saloon. Ordered the bourbon shrimp ; loved the bourbon taste ; shrimps were good. The redskin mashed potatoes were nice and hot ; just the way I like my food. Creamy yet nice and thick. My husband ordered the country fried steak; he seemed to really enjoy it. The Mai tai on the $6 special menu was nice and strong. Great bang for your buck. A couple of those and you'd really be good to go. Have a buzz for sure. Would I come back and try some more food? Definitely for sure,

    I am shocked this place doesn't have 5 stars! I was in town for work, and had a group of 10 come to dinner here. The steak was flavorful and juicy. I was not a big fan of the bread, however I LOVED the beans! Hands down the best beans I have ever had. We ordered the cowboy cookie and bread pudding were outstanding. I am not much if a dessert person, but these were certainly worth the calories. The restaurant is full of history of Tulare with pictures on the wall of the 1800's and 1900's of the city. Really nest to see that history. Our waitress was prompt and had great customer service.

    Prime Rib, shrimp scampi, filet mignon...
    Mark H.

    Service: fantastic Ambiance: good Shrimp scampi : spot on Filet mignon : tender and tasty, perfectly cooked Prime Rib: nope, won't be ordering that again. Tasted good but super chewy, tough for prime rib. Normally I'd give them 4+ stars, but the prime rib was just cr@p. Will definitely try the restaurant again though.

    Happy Hour with the ladies 12/29/2021

    I've been here several times with my mother and my sister. The food is good, my favs are the happy hour bacon bourbon wrapped shrimp and the steak nachos!!!! You can't go wrong with any of the happy hour prices but it's only n the bar area. Went here on 02/16/2022- it's not that it was busy, but it was the fact that with this pandemic that they might be short staffed, but a lot of tables were dirty upon walking in the bar making that selection limited. It was pretty funny to watch the bartender instantly greet 2 young ladies who walked in and sat down at a table, but when we walked in we had to walk around looking for available seats and we were not greeted by anyone... that bartender must've been single trying to mingle because the grin on his face that was so obvious that he was ready to assist "certain" ladies of his likings. That still didn't take away from our experience as our waitress was great and she did the best that she could with the amount of people that she was serving by herself. She gave my sister huge cups of water as my sister is always asking for refills. All of our appetizers came out in a reasonable amount of time. The only con is that the loaded fries and their french fries with their sliders needed a tad bit more salt. I guess with that one really shouldn't complain because if they're oversalted then that's another issue.

    Steak!!!

    with one small caveat…read more Tap Yard is hands down one of my favorite spots downtown. The bar itself is beautiful, with a fun, laid-back atmosphere and great music that always sets the vibe. The staff and service are amazing friendly, & attentive. They don't serve food directly, but they always have food trucks, which honestly makes it even better. They're super active on Instagram and regularly post their food truck calendar, so you always know who's serving what and when. My absolute favorite food truck that comes through is Brahma never disappoints. The drink selection is top tier with a wide variety of beers from different distilleries, so there's something for everyone. My go-to drinks are the Michelada with the spicy cucumber mix (so good), The Lady Marmalade, and Dark Horse is also a solid choice. Tap Yard also has an outdoor patio, karaoke nights, and live bands, which makes it such a fun place whether you're going out with friends or just trying to unwind. The only downside for me is that it isn't strictly 21+. Since there's a playground in the back patio, some adults bring their kids, and personally, I'm there to relax and have fun--not listen to screaming children. If you're looking for great drinks, a fun crowd, awesome music, and consistently good vibes, Tap Yard is definitely worth checking out.

You can absolutely tell when someone takes pride in their job especially being the first one customers see. We were seated next to the kitchen window which was a bonus for me.

Our server was amazing and we never went without anything. Checked on us frequently. We started off with the surf and turf. It was lovely.
