We had to pull off the road to grab something to eat, and unfortunately, stopping here was a huge…read moremistake. After reading all the positive reviews, we had high hopes; but we quickly realized we should have kept driving. This place was absolutely filthy. The entire restaurant looked grimy and poorly maintained, and the food handling did nothing to make us feel any better. There was a large container of potatoes sitting on a shelf directly above the grill. Seeing food sitting out like that was extremely concerning and immediately made me question the cleanliness and safety of the kitchen. I ordered biscuits and gravy with grits and scrambled eggs, thinking at least the grits would be fresh and hot. My other half ordered the corned beef hash and eggs, which were advertised as homemade. The hash appeared to contain a mixture of fresh and old potatoes. He took his food out and threw it away. I ended up feeling sick for the rest of the day. I obviously cannot say for certain what caused it, but after seeing the condition of the place and how the food was being handled, I wasn't exactly surprised that I felt terrible afterward. Honestly, I am kicking myself for not turning around and leaving the moment we walked in. The reviews gave us completely unrealistic expectations. This was one of those meals where you leave wishing you had just gone hungry instead. If cleanliness and proper food handling matter to you, I would seriously think twice before stopping here. Our experience was awful, and based on what we saw, we will absolutely never be back.

Their hand-cut fries are always on point too. But what makes The Yard really special is the people. Kai has created a space that feels rooted in Black joy, community, and genuine hospitality. He and Niy are always so kind, and every time I leave, I feel seen and appreciated. There are plenty of places to get a burger, but very few places that make you feel connected to a city. I'm newer to Newark and already feel that way about The Yard. I hope they're here forever.

We came for the Oxtail burger but on this day they were only making beef burgers, lamb burgers, and catfish sandwiches. The bonus, however, was the BBQ offerings in the backyard -- Mac n cheese, corn on the cob, fries, and plantains! Between the awesome cheeseburger and lamb burger, I was in seventh heaven. We had a great time sitting on the lawn and celebrating this glorious day with our brothers and sisters.

Service was a little shaky at first, but picked up as time went on. Sandwich was hot and freshly made. Seasoned just right and very flavorful. Fries were hot and crispy. No complaints on this.

Beyond the food, it's family-owned, and the family happens to be some of the kindest people you'll find. It's a rare day where one of them doesn't stop by the table to ask how your day is going, or how the meal went. As for the meal itself, you'll be greeted by a heaping bucket of various pickles on the table. The menu is enormous, with all the typical hot and cold sandwiches you'd expect from a great deli. Finish off the meal with a tasty cookie or dessert - i love both the black and whites or the linzer tarts.

Overall a great cozy place that you would miss since it is in an industrial place if you weren't paying attention.
