We were visiting Newport from Ohio and stopped at Yard House to try it out. We loved the downtown Cincinnati scene but struggled to locate parking (looked for a garage) but then we located a spot on the street. Get the Espresso Martini!! It was one of the best that I've had in a while. Very strong but delicious. The Korean Cheesesteak had distinct flavor and was delicious. The Whiskey Salmon was sweet and flaky which we love and we requested loaded potatoes which was a nice touch. However, we believe the stars of the show were the appetizers of choice which were Miguel's Queso Dip with ground beef and a bowl of Chicken Tortilla soup - neither of these are pictured but take my word for it...the BEST! Overall we enjoyed dinner but will say that our server was very dry and lacked personality. It appeared as if he was ready to leave for the day lol! But we didn't allow it to ruin our time. His problem, not ours. I think we will return when we visit again! read more

Came here for happy hour with a couple of friends and we almost ordered the whole happy hour menu. The food came out fast with the exception of the calamari and our server Tinky was great and attentive. I ordered the espresso martini and pink dragon margarita and I was highly satisfied with both. The espresso martini being my favorite! I also ordered the edamame, the carnivore pizza, and the calamari. Im not a big fan of mushrooms but tried the shiitake Noodles and I loved it. The mushrooms are big enough to pick out or push to the side and just eat the noodles which is what I did. Everything we had was great and I will definitely be back. read more

My friend and I came here for dinner the day after Thanksgiving. She has several serious allergies including tree nut, celiacs, and dairy. Or server, Kanada, and the manager (sorry, didn't catch his name) both went above and beyond to accommodate her dietary needs. From showing her how to access the gluten free menu on the table tablet, to confirming ingredients with the kitchen before putting in her order. Plus Kanada was super sweet and friendly. He made is laugh and feel so at home the entire time. Also my restriction free entree was delicious!! We'll definitely be back whenever we're in downtown again! read more

I always love going to Yard House. They have a large variety of food and drink options, and the food never misses. We got the poke nachos as an appetizer. The tuna was fresh and the chips were thin with the perfect crisp. The flavors in my pork burger were great. The portion size of my husband's fish and chips were huge. It's a fun place for drinks and food or for just a date night. read more

My group of nine people ate here for lunch doing a break from visiting museums. We only had to wait a few minutes for the staff to set up tables to accommodate our large group. Our server was AMAZING! She was friendly, down to earth, talkative and served our large group without help from other staff. Our drink orders and food orders were all correct. There were no mistakes or changes at all. Like I said our server was amazing. For instance, our group had a 91 yr old lady, whom the server treated especially well. All of the dishes were presented well, the portion sizes were adequate-to-large and the flavors were delicious. No one in our party had any complaints or concerns at all. The atmosphere of this upscale sports bar/restaurant was inviting, the large TVs had closed captions (which I love at any public place) and the views of Cincinnati's bridges and waterfront were pleasing Overall, this restaurant and staff provided a great dining experience for our large family. read more

Yard House was amazing! We went on a Friday night and were told there was a wait but were seated within 5 minutes. Our server was awesome and knowledgeable about the menu. My boyfriend and I decided on the "half yard" drinks which were 32 oz. I got a fruity cider and he got a beer. They were both delicious. The menu was huge with a ton of options. We got the chicken nachos as an appetizer. It was a great portion and so delicious. Multiple sauces and toppings. We each got a burger with a side. I had the pepper jack burger with garlic parm fries. They were both incredible. My boyfriend had the bbq cheddar bacon burger with onion rings. Also both delicious. The atmosphere was so fun in there. There is a ton of seating. The restaurant and bathrooms are handicap accessible. Not sure about the parking as we walked. It was such a fun time and I'd love to go back! read more

First time dining here. An office ordered lunch from here, so I picked it up. It was dead when I arrived but it quickly became busy. While I waited for my order, I could see a large group of people standing at the door waiting to be seated. It took forever for those people, which was surprising since the restaurant was dead. The food was okay. Everyone seemed to enjoy it. My food was very under cooked, so I couldn't say I was that impressed. read more

Ambiance is cool and casual with quick service. Unfortunately the kids pizza was a bit underdone and my daughter didn't want to eat it bc it was mushy. I had a BBQ chicken salad that was a little Smokey for my liking and the baked beans added an odd flavor to the salad. Very spacious and outdoor seating also available. read more

It's good to know how to time that this is one of those places that is always high traffic. Always tons of people going in and out. It's close to the stadiums and when there are games happening and whenever there is a festival like pride or Oktoberfest, it's going to be slammed. So we did try to come here during one of the festivals and even though it was busy like crazy, we did get in within about 40 minutes. The staff seems to be doing their very best with all the crowds. But our server Lauren was amazing and she made sure that we were taking care of. We were always made to feel that she was there if we needed her. Food was actually pretty good. I would consider a place like this to probably not be always good with the food because they're just relying on high traffic but it's been good both times have been here. You can get a lot of food too depending on exactly what you want. read more

Had a nice dinner with some coworkers at Yard House last night. It was easy walking from downtown. It was nice and cool inside. Our waitress was very friendly and attentive. We had some people arrive later but she kept coming over to offer drinks and food throughout. I enjoyed my watermelon margarita and there's of course a nice selection of beers. They also have a really nice selection of salads and entrees for pescatarians. I went with the crunchy tuna salad and was very happy with it. read more

We went here before the reds game. We were from out of town and you can't have a bag at the game. I have long hair and it was HOT out. When we sat I was burning hot. I asked my server if she could possibly bring me a rubber band if they had any. The manager located me a hair tie and I was soooo thankful. We have many drinks they were perfectly made and our meals were fresh and wonderful. This place not only goes above and beyond for their customers nut the food and drinks is sooo delicious. read more

This place is located in the heart of downtown Cincinnati. We had a large party of 11 people during the week and it was not very crowded. The service was below par, but they were very nice (drinks took a long time or had to be asked for a couple times). They had great appetizer specials until 6:30 and that came out super fast, and we actually got the apps before any of our drinks??? I got the Spicy Jambalaya and the dish was pretty good! For dessert, got the bread pudding which comes with ice cream and it was average (not my favorite). They have a full bar with a TON of beers on tap which was impressive. With the proximity to both stadiums this is a great choice on game day. read more

I really like this place, we came on New Year's Eve and it was a great atmosphere. Service was good. We went during, happy hour so all drinks appetizers and pizzas were half off. We were already planning on getting pizza and appetizer so it was perfect ! We got the carnivore pizza which was very good. The dough was soft and chewy and airy and the toppings were perfect. We got the crispy brussel sprouts as well. It had a gochujang sauce on it, which was a milder almost Asian but not quite type sauce with a vinegar aïoli on the side. I know it sounds weird, but it was actually really good. I'm definitely coming back here. read more

Yard House is a chain restaurant. It has an upscale yet casual sports bar vibe. Located within eye shot of the Great American Ball Park (Cincinnati Reds) and Paycom Stadium (Cincinnati Bengals), the Yard House is a watering hole for devotes before the game opening at 11am and after the game closing at 11 pm. Choose from 100 beers on tap while listing to classic rock. Their food menu is EXTENSIVE and includes vegetarian options. It's mostly American fare. Happy Hour features deep discounts on food and drinks. All that said, I was here at 11 am just to get out of the rain. I was walking around the Banks area taking in the sights when the rain came pouring down and nothing else was open. So after being seated, I ordered a Yuengling draft ($3.75) in a completely empty bar/restaurant area and Poke Nachos ($16.49). Yuengling beer is my favorite and the Poke Nachos were fresh, properly seasoned and loaded with a variety of vegetables including avocado.. Needless to say that service was not an issue (LOL). read more

Came here for a double date with friends. The couple happened to be plant-based, and YH had several options for them to choose from. Firstly, those Brussel sprouts were some of the best I've ever had. I ordered the tacos, and two left me satisfied. I also ordered a cosmo, and it was the cutest. It was a little pricey but not unexpected given the location. read more

We went to the Yard House to celebrate my husband's birthday. We could not make a reservation on this Saturday night but we did find out after we got there you could text ahead and get on the waitlist. That is what we would do next time but this time we just got in line and waited luckily we got there early at 5:00 p.m. for dinner and the wait wasn't too long. Our waiter came by and introduced himself and took our drink order while we looked at the menu. I ordered a peach martini and the hubby ordered a beer. My drink was good and sweet. We placed our dinner order and then the long long wait began. It took a little over an hour for our order to come out. When our meal finally made it to the table it was good. For dinner I ordered the Ahi Tuna crunch salad and the Brussels appetizer and my hubby ordered a cheeseburger and fries. Other than the long wait for the food to come out I would definitely recommend this place. The food was good and the cocktails were good and our waiter apologized for the wait and was attentive! read more

Went on a Thursday night after a Yelp event. Good service and nice atmosphere overseeing the small park. We got the spinich dip n chips and onion rings as appertizers.

It was pouring when we left and they gave us large garbage bags to use for ponchos. Very nice. read more

Great service from our waitress who was happy to show us how the kiosk computer works but was also more than happy to interact with us old fogeys IRL. Nice to be able to order immediately and then later, split the check easily without having to deal with her later. Nachos were excellent. I'm really impressed when a place knows to make the stack of chips wide but not tall so that you don't end up with a bunch of chips that don't have any stuff on them. This was perfectly done and the cheese was melted nicely. Truffle fries were also excellent. Hot, crispy, perfectly cooked. Great for dipping in the mayo and then I asked for some sriracha ketchup. Yum! I'm glad there wasn't a sporting event tonight as I found parking less than two blocks away and there was no wait. My only complaint is that they didn't have any tables with power outlets to charge up my phone. [Review 20468 overall - round number 200 in Ohio - 1448 of 2023.] read more

Date night with friends. Great atmosphere. Nice location. We had to wait for a bit for our party of 4 to get seated, even though there were PLENTY of open tables. Hostess was not very friendly and acted very put out when we asked for a table with better air flow on a super hot day. We actually had to wait longer since we wanted a different table. Our server was an older lady and was SUPER NICE. She was the friendliest person there. Service was a little slow because she had so many tables, but we didn't mind because she was so nice. Food was good. Do yourself a favor and get the asian noodle dish (can't remember the name). It was the best thing we had!!! read more

Came here with a group of 8 late afternoon and were easily seated. This restaurant is right near the river so views out the windows are gorgeous. And if you don't care about the views outside, there's plenty of sports that can be watched on the tv screens. One of the best parts of eating here was the service of our server Anthony, super attentive and friendly. I got the double decker blt sandwich, very yummy- bacon was cooked perfectly, only had a little trouble with it falling apart as I tried to eat it. My dad got the cheesesteak and thought it was pretty good, except there was a piece of fat that made it in. Others in our group got the Brooke for dessert and they RAVED about it, that it was the best they'd ever had. read more

Came here after a Reds game. They were open late and really busy but we were seated right away. Our server came pretty quickly to take our drink orders. I ordered unsweetened tea with no lemon. I got sweet tea with lemon. I sent it back and got sweet tea with no lemon. Being a diabetic this was not good. I finally just ordered water. The tea was not taken off the bill. We asked the server some questions about my wife's food allergy and he said" I don't think there are those peppers", " you should be ok". This is a life threatening allergy and not verifying really wasn't an option. We both ordered the carne asada tacos. They were amazing but really small. Steak with poblano pepper, avocado and Cilantro. Beans and spicy rice came on the side. The beans were not mashed and refried but served whole in their own gravy, really good. The rice was not spicy and was dry, almost inedible. The poor review is less about the flavor of the food but more about the serving amount and the mediocre service. There are a lot of options right here and we expected better. read more

We had a great experience over a Sunday lunch here. There was a reds game so the wait was around 45 mins but if you check in online and put your name down in advance it'll help! We ordered the nachos with gardein, very shareable and still had some to take home Orange gardein chikn with spicy rice really tasty, wish there were more vegetables though. Truffle fries with all the dipping sauces. Our fave was the bbq and garlic aioli. The black pepper sauce wasn't as good as we thought. Perfect spot while down at the banks, massive beer selection and plenty of seating! read more
