    It was great seeing a place that has a wide variety of great food options. This is the 2nd time I've had edamame that tastes so good ! I'm going to try to find one in MY state. It was a great experience. I can't wait to do it again!

    Virtual Ordering menu
    Robert S.

    Stopped in here for their Happy Hour. The prices looked great on the menu and the selection was also very good. Many items were 50% off. When I got seated by the host, I did not get any server coming for a while. I then noticed the virtual ordering menu Ipad on the table, so I decided to order my Happy Hour item...Chicken Lettuce Wraps. I waited for a bit and still no one ever came to say anything to me. A bit later someone from the kitchen came with my item and placed it on the table. I asked if I could get a glass of water, he said, later....he never came back. I noticed a small Bell icon on the iPad, so I pressed it to get some assistance....that red light flashed for over 10 minutes and no one came to ask if I needed something. I finally flagged someone far away to get me a water..... When it was time to pay, I used the virtual iPad but it did not work, so I approached the bar area and asked if someone could run my card. The lady asked me who was your server...I said No One. I finally got a server to run my card. The lettuce wrap was salty and forgettable. It came on a fried wonton and some Bibb lettuce leaves with two sauces...not bad, but not great either...

    Food was fine but at the price point it's not above any of the great local spots near backbay Boston area. Owned by Darden, a major restaurant group. You can tell it's in that category of big business.

    Orange Chicken
    Masmin P.

    Sports bar nestled at the 2nd floor intersection of the Copley Marriott, Copley Mall and the Prudential. Great space to dine or have a couple drinks while not missing out on any live sports action. Servers are accommodating and attentive. There's also a touchpad on the table if you want to put in an order in between the servers' rounds. Food is reasonably good and well-presented. The orange chicken rice bowl was really good, we enjoyed our selection of tacos (Jorean chicken and beer battered fish taco were great, and love that the birria tacos came with a tiny saucepan of jus), and ahi salad was refreshing. For a lower carb option, for the taco mix and match ( Korean chicken and Beer-Battered Fish Tacos), our server was able to sub in roasted veggies instead of rice and beans, and bib lettuce wraps instead of tortilla shells- satisfying without the guilt.

    KBBQ steak

    Yard House was conveniently located in the Copley Marriott on the 2nd floor. After arriving to Boston late in the evening we got a late night meal. We only had about a 10 minute wait for a table which was great considering the host told us it was a 3 hour wait all day long as this was the end point for the Boston Marathon. It made it really neat to be able to see alot of the runners here at the finish place. My friend & I both ended up ordering the Korean BBQ steak and subbing the fries for mashed potatoes. We started with cheese curds & wings, both were mediocre. Cheese curds were good but were a bit on the soggy side - I am also a bit spoiled as the ones we serve back home are garlic crusted so these lacked in flavor in comparison. We got two types of wings - buffalo & sweet chili. The sweet chili ones were better than the regular buffalo wings, nothing too special about these. The flavor on the steak was delicious and the potatoes were top notch. I highly recommend those mashed potatoes they were the best part of the meal. We were glad the restaurant is open late and had a wide variety of items.

    Yard House is solid! A great option for large groups as their menus caters to everyone including vegans and their expansive drafts and cocktails are enough to keep everyone satisfied. Our experience was a later evening so it took a minute to flag down a server but they quickly attempted to rectify the situation and were pretty on top of it after that.

    Poke Salad
    Lena L.

    Convenient location right in Copley square. They have multiple huge TV screens for sports and a good selection for both food and drinks. The poke salad was surprisingly very fresh and tasty!

    Blue Bleu Cheese & Bacon Burger with Sweet Potato Fries
    Len L.

    Located in the Marriot Copley lobby, we got sat in the eating section which was vastly larger compared to the bar section. The menu had a nice selection to choose from and decided on gourmet burgers. I got the blue cheese burger with $1 upgrade to sweet potato fries. The burger was perfect for a medium-rare. Service was great and my glass of water never was dry. The area was loud but manageable. Overall the food was great and I would come back again. Cost is average for the food and area.

    Kale Brussels Caesar salad and Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich
    Kristen S.

    Came here again last night as we are staying in the hotel and have a daily dining credit. Taylor E was our waitress and she demonstrated excellent customer service. I ordered fish tacos that were crazy spicy, couldn't eat them, and she was very courteous about it and understood. I really appreciate people who do their best and are friendly even when things don't go as planned.

    Very disappointed in the food we ordered today. I ordered a margarita pizza. It came out with a huge chunks of tomatoes that made the pizza soggy and wet. It was actually disgusting to eat. Hubby ordered an Asian salmon, which would've been fine but again too much dressing and the salad was soggy. It's been years since I've been to a Yardhouse and I remember the food to be incredibly delicious but definitely not today.

    10 Crispy Traditional Wings with Buffalo Sauces
    William H.

    The food they serve is more of a bar food than restaurant food. But their menu is similar to TGIF or Fridays. We tried it as we had hotel credit to burn. It was packed when we went for dinner on Tuesday night. There was some private event along with MLB all stars and WNBA is in town. That made service very slow. Including ordering and getting refills. We ordered Buffalo Wings, Guac and Chips, Turkey BLT, and Fish and Chips. The Guac and chips were good as it tasted like Chipotle's Guac. The Turkey BLT probably the best of the bunch. Pile high with Turkey and a good amount of avocado and bacon. Both the wings and the fish and chips were a disappointment. Wings were not crispy at all and could be straight out of a frozen bag of buffalo wings. The fish were too heavily battered and oily. The tartar sauce tasted like out of a bottle from your local grocery store. Overall, nothing memorable. Maybe their drinks are good so these are just bar food.

    Stacked Turkey Club
    Melanie T.

    I frequently eat at Yard House before heading over to Back Bay station to catch a train home. I really enjoy the food and they always have pretty good service. Nice selection of beer, appetizers and a good happy hour. Be aware it's a loud sports bar so if you're looking for somewhere quiet don't stop here! One of my favorite sandwiches is the stacked turkey club. It's easily enough for two people and it never disappoints.

    Buffalo chicken nacho and poke nacho
    Kelly Z.

    I love yard house. I love their happy our 50% off appetizer items! Their appetizers are so big and so yummy! Lots of variety. The poke nachos is forever my go to! It's so flavorful and so fresh. What I love is that they use thin wonton chips! We also got their loaded chicken nachos, calamari, sliders, Buffalo chicken and ahi tuna. The chicken nachos were so loaded lots of topping and sauces to go around. The ahi tuna is so refreshing and the sauce is delicious. The calamari was very crispy and goes well with the tartar sauce. The Buffalo chicken was ok it was basic Buffalo chicken. Our server was super nice and friendly. She makes great conversations and made sure we got everything we need. I always love this place!!

    This place was awesome!!!…read more If you are a Gen X'er, and love great cocktails, you will love this place! So we are from out of town; Texas, to be exact, and we were in Boston on vacation. We were looking for a place we could get some drinks and appetizers, and maybe watch some sports. A person in our group found this place online, so we gave it a try. We loved it! The 80s & 90s decor, as well as the 80s & 90s music they were playing made it an instant hit for our Gen X group. Every single song that was played was on my personal playlist, so we sang along and danced at our table to the tunes that took us back in time. There were some early 2000s songs played, too, but all songs played were songs we know and love. So needless to say, we loved the music!! Also, the drinks...oh my, the drinks. They were so, so good! Some in our group had the Adult Caprisun, including myself. It was so tasty, and served in an actual pouch, which brought me back to my 80s childhood. Another in our group ordered the Pink Flamingo which came with a little inflatable pink flamingo that you could take home with you. We noticed that the drinks were just perfect, too; not too strong with alcohol, and not watered down, either. The food was okay. It's bar food, so it's not going to knock your socks off or anything, but it hits the spot if you are drinking and hanging with friends. Our server was good. She was attentive to our needs and took good care of us. It was interesting to me that we, a group of age 50 somethings, were the oldest among the clientele, as everyone else was probably in their 20s or early 30s, but we didn't care. We had a great time! The only reason I did not give this place 5 stars is because someone in our group wanted to watch the Red Sox game, and apparently it was on Apple TV that night and the bar didn't have Apple TV.

    I came here for breakfast during my stay at The Newbury. Service was quite slow as initially there…read morewas only one dedicated, friendly employee handling the seating, taking orders and busing the tables. My order of yogurt with fruit and granola was fresh, filling and a yummy beginning to my day. My coffee was equally enjoyed, and note that it's $13 for each small coffee pot. Refills are not complimentary. I loved my window table on this rainy morning, and the lovely, cozy ambiance of The Street Bar. It's easy to see why this is such a sought after bar each evening.

In advance, I stopped into the hotel to confirm that a gluten-free guest could be accommodated and was assured this would be handled. In reality, the accommodation was inadequate and, at times, unacceptable. While the rest of us were served scones, my stepdaughter was given cut fruit in their place, and told that was all they had to accommodate.The dessert course consisted of what appeared to be basic gluten-free cookies, misrepresented as something more gourmet - egg nog cookies??? This lack of preparation was both disappointing, upsetting and avoidable. The broader experience was equally concerning. We were subjected to an unsolicited and uncomfortable "lesson" on tea service, which detracted from what should have been a relaxed and celebratory occasion. While trying to enjoy the time with the girls, being a lifelong tea drinker and someone who has been to many times at your establishment and its various incarnations, this is something I have never experienced. The food quality was poor (scones were clearly reheated and stuck to the cloth napkin they were wrapped in), and there were notable service lapses, including being served water in a visibly shattered glass. Additionally, when hot water was added to refresh the tea, my stepdaughter's pot curdled and had to be replaced. It was especially disappointing, as I mentioned that I had stopped in and spoken with the concierge, and was assured, as they had called the kitchen while I stood there that they readily accommodated gluten-free. There are numerous places in the city that could have done this, and if you had just told me that you could not do so, I would have booked us elsewhere. I chose not to raise the multiple issues in the moment so as not to disrupt what was meant to be a special day for the girls and me. However, the total cost exceeded $500, and the experience did not come close to justifying that price point! Do not recommend.

But our table was in the main bar off to the side, so it was chaotic but fun. I do wish it was more private but it was still fun, just loud. Our waitress was really nice and did well with our large party. Their menu is mostly apps and smaller plates, so if you're looking more for a large meal this is not your spot. I got the nashville hot mozzarella sticks which were actually pretty good, I liked the tomato relish they put on top and the ranch was really good. Dive Bar Diva was my cocktail which was pretty good. My friends seemed to like their drinks and bar bites. After dinner we went upstairs to the club and got to skip the line (thankfully). The line for the club wraps around the building down the street most nights, so we got lucky. Dance floor is upstairs and it's pretty small, just one room. There were two DJs that night, and the music was really good. Bar was fun, they handed out free chicken tenders at one point and were squirting shots into peoples mouths out of gatorade bottles. It was awesome. Bathroom line upstairs for women was crazy, only one bathroom and it took a long line. I suggest going downstairs... but at least you'll see the famous cheetah print walls!
