Great fish and chips. I will eat here again. Also great view of the river and bridges

servise is not good. My friends like the food. I ordered food with vegetarian tag however there is a small pice of chicken ... read more

For a double date night this place was great. The food is really good though a bit pricey. The selection of beers is always top notch. I'm not a a big beer fan however they always have something new for me to try as I build my palate. I love that they let you sample the beers on draft before you commit. The girl who seated us was NOT happy to be working that night. She was clearly upset that we wanted to be seated outside, stomped off at a brisk pace not waiting for us to follow her, and then threw our menus into the table before stomping off to get our server. I understand that lives get frustrating but do not take it out on your customers, people! read more

I can't have garlic or onions. Everything on the menu has garlic in it. I ordered a margarita pizza and asked for garlic to be left off. Margarita pizza traditionally should not have sauce. It came with sauce. I was unable to eat it due to garlic being in the sauce. I picked off the toasted tomatoes and ate those for my dinner. Also my margarita was shaken so much, it had a foam on top and it never went away. Not appetizing. The beer cheese was literally gritty. It tasted like bottled parm cheese mixed with water. So strange and not good. $70 for nothing. Don't bother going here. read more

Yard House - Margarita pizza with sauce?? - New American Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

This is a favorite among my friends and I if we're ever headed down by the river. It's in a nice location and had a great atmosphere. I've been here a few times and each time is better than the last. I've had the server, LaVar, a few times now and I've got to say he's the absolute best. He's hilarious and remembers us from before, top notch service. They have an extensive food and drink selection. Also, it's not only bar-style food as they have a variety of options. Last time I was there I ordered a quesadilla off the appetizers menu. It's quite filling for an appetizer. One thing to note is parking can be a tad hectic. There is a garage across the street near he Scripps building and a garage down by the river beside Moerlein Lager House. Either one is usually cheap, barring any Reds game or other event. read more

Love the yard house! went here to watch the Bengals game and even though they lost it was a great afternoon! There were 8 of us and service was fantastic! We will be back soon!!! read more

Wow! I wasn't expecting the experience to be that good. The bartenders were great and very friendly! The apps were delicious but could have used more chips for the queso cheese. Ordered the not so calorie friendly fish and chips for dinner - fried perfection! Draft beer options are amazing Fifth or sixth visit.... still the shit, read more

Great looking restaurant we visited going to a Reds game. Went to the bathroom after seating only to find trash cans overflowing with paper towels and two of three soap dispensers empty. Worse yet no fresh paper towels to be had. Notified waitress but after dinner nothing had changed. Food, ordered the spinach artichoke dip. Two kinds of cold stale chips to choose from. Dip was microwaved but ok. Ordered the roast beef french dip. Can't understand why they didn't warm up the meat. Au juise was ok but horseradish sauce was just plain mayo. Wife loved her salad so hence the two stars. Just a waste of potential. read more

We went here for dinner while enjoying BLINK. It was crazy busy to be expected. However we were seated immediately which I was so impressed by. The server was AMAZING and did his job so well but he was definitely stretched thin that night. The drinks were top notch. Only down fall I would say would be the food we received. My steak was not medium well as I asked, it was more on the medium rare side and cold.. read more

Five stars for pizza, four stars for food, three stars for service. I like Yard House. I always want to like it more, but I don't. I guess we're just friends. I've never had that "wow" experience there, just "well, that was nice but...". Sometimes the service is slow, sometimes it's too loud, sometimes they are out of something, sometimes it just seems a little pricier than it should be. Lots of things work well about this place, but I just don't see it ever being a 5 star spot. On my most recent visit, I tried the Nashville Hot chicken sandwich. It was nothing special. Probably the least impressed I have been by food there in a while. We also shared the Poke Nachos, which were really pretty amazing. That pretty much sums up this place for me. Something amazing, something totally average, overall.... nice. They have decent lunch specials, but it is next to impossible to eat here in an hour. The bathrooms were surprisingly tired. I remember being impressed when they opened this location how nice the bathrooms were. I no longer think that. The best thing about this place is that it generally remains sane after events downtown. It's not going to be wall to wall 20somethings on a Friday night. If the rest of the Banks feels like a crazy crowd, Yard House may be more your speed. read more

Service was okay. The yard drink was great. Food was average. Wait time was insane. Sounds like staffing issues since 3/4 place was open. Waitress was SLOW read more

We had a great experience at Yard House 2 nights ago in Cinn. OH. Our server was FANTASTIC, Anthony. Ask for him! Friendly, smart, on top of his game, and accommodating. The food was great for the price. And the atmosphere was really nice. 5 star experience. I just loved it. read more

Got food poisoning:/, the service was great though! Nice server, and the place was busy but still got served in a timely manner.

Went here for NYE, had the Vodka Chicken Penne. Good sized portion, also had a Pink Dragon. The food was good and drink was strong- worth the $15 I paid for it. I would return. read more

Our first time there and we enjoyed it. Food was excellent and our waiter found out it was our anniversary and surprised us with dessert! read more

Service was great! I was with a table of 10 and we ordered the spinach dip, firecracker shrimp, truffle fries, sweet potato fries, and chicken tenders. The Firecracker shrimp and truffle fries are consistently delicious here. I always order the sunrise sangria - light, sweet and decently alcoholic - highly recommend. read more

They seriously have the best servers here. Every time we come in it's better than the last. Gabriella was our server today and I've never had better service in my life. She didn't like how many lettuce leaves the kitchen gave us for the chicken lettuce wraps so she gave us 2 extra orders without asking. This place has food for whatever mood you're in. Everything is always fresh and made in house. From the tortilla chips (yes really), to the homemade aolis. Never had a bad item on the menu. Which is insane because there's literally 100 items. We started with the wraps and then split several appetizers. (Tip: Ask for the truffle fries well done. They usually are a little undercooked.) Keep in mind the drinks are a little overpriced but that comes with territory. Can't recommend this place enough. Just make sure to check there's not a home Reds or Bengals game in town before you go. read more

Not a family place. This place had pretty good reviews and so we thought this would be a great place to eat after a Reds game. 20-25 min wait which I thought was pretty good for as close to the stadium it was. But the music in there was blaring and the menu is pretty hit and miss. Hefty price for the amount of food you get, really. I couldn't talk across the table due to the music being so loud. I did see they had a huge bar and A LOT of beers on tap, so I guess if you want to drink with your friends this would be a great place. I'm not sure what the atmosphere is here when Reds fans aren't in town, but I was not impressed this time around by any means. The 2 stars is for the street tacos which were alright. read more

We love Yard House for date night (when there's not a game downtown, otherwise we can't get a table.) They have many vegan options for my husband (an entire section of the menu is Gardein) and a gluten-free menu for me. Huge selection of beer and wine and large booths if you have a small group. read more

We were in the area for the weekend and walked here to watch some football and drink some brews. It's clean and well spaced out for socially distancing. The bar staff was super friendly, we really enjoyed our bartender. We did a few flights and appetizers and it was a nice place to kick back and watch the game. read more

My first visit to Yard House was a few nights ago for a Yelp Elite event. We got free beer and free food. Honestly, a wonderful combination for a beer lover such as myself. We tried many appetizers and got to try about four beers. We got our choice of a welcome beer, and a beer tasting that had three different kinds - a Belgian, an IPA, and a Pilsner. I LOVE stouts, so when it was offered as one of the welcome beers, I went with that. It was a good stout, so naturally as a coffee lover, it was superb. I would happily get that beer over and over. I was really pleased with the IPA too - which surprised me - because typically I don't like them. While it was really hoppy, it didn't have the same taste as other IPAs that normally is off putting to me. It was my favorite of the three tastes we got. My second favorite was the Belgian, which is another beer preference of mine. Belgians are just crisp and refreshing. My least favorite was the Pilsner. It was definitely good too, but it didn't have as much flavor as the other beers. For food, we got to try all kinds of appetizers. Such as wings, onion rings, crab lobster dip, spinach artichoke dip, and more. The food was good, but I wasn't blown away. I think a common issue for places with such a large menu is that often the food is just okay. Whereas with establishments with smaller menus tend to focus more on the quality and not the quantity. That being said, I would definitely still come back for a visit. They have so many great beer choices and the staff was so friendly that I want to come back just to experience those things. read more

Stopped by Yard House while visiting Cincinnati recently. There were nine of us, but we were still seated within five minutes! It was a calm, beautiful day with a music festival and an African market nearby. Upon being seated, our drink orders were promptly taken. Since it was so hot outside, we all ordered water, initially. For lunch, I ordered tomato bisque and a ranch salad. A while later, our food was served by a team of workers. My salad was tasty and fresh. The tomato bisque was probably the best I ever had. I should've ordered a bowl. No. Actually, I would've preferred to take the entire pot home. This bisque was simple, yets extremely delicious. I'm going to have to make my own some day! We all enjoyed our food, but I found the salads to be overpriced. A salmon salad was $17.95! A chefs salad was $12.95. These are probably the priciest salads that I've seen in a while. One would expect the portions to be huge to match the price of the salads, but no, they're not. They were tasty though. We didn't order wings on this visit, but I know that Yard House has some awesome wings, based on prior experience. Maybe we'll get some wings next time! Recommend! read more

As long as The Yard House has been here yesterday was my first visit. There was a premier for a new beer we wanted to try. The service was slow initially. We found out that although the hostess told us to sit any where, all the seats were not open until the evening staff arrived. The server that eventually came informed us. She was so nice and made up for the wait. We had the Bold Fashioned cocktail. It was awesome full flavor with a smoke flavor in the background. Loved it. We learned that they did not receive their shipment of the new beer so we were not able to try it. Food wise we had queso and calamari appetizers. Both were very good. The calamari was cold and thus the lower rating. We did not bother sending it back. The queso came with delicious tortilla chips and soft flour tortilla shells. The queso was good I wished for a few more jalapenos. Next time I'll ask for all chips. Those shells were a weird choice for a queso did I'm my opinion. Overall I would go back to Yard House. read more

Game day good eats in Cincinnati! I have been to Yard House locations in California and Colorado over the years, and was happy to find one in Ohio. I love the lively atmosphere here and the huge menu with something for everyone. We appreciated the kid friendly menu and the activity sheets they gave the kids to keep them busy (and happy) at the table. Shoutout to our awesome server Erin. Sunday Funday was a success here. read more

I've been coming to the Yard House for many years now and I've never had a bad experience. The atmosphere, the food, the drinks..everything is pretty good here. The place is big enough that even when it's really busy there isn't much of a wait, if any. I can't recall ever having to wait for a table. I'm not a beer drinker, so I can't speak for their vast selections and crazy yard tall servings..but I've been here with a decent amount a beer aficionados and they've all given this place high marks. So if beer is your thing, definitely check this place out. My favorite thing they serve here are the truffle fries. They are just made perfectly. The fries are always crisp, the truffle is always mouth wateringly good. I didn't get these on my last visit, and I really regretted it afterwards. I went with the Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich. I asked for no cole slaw on it, it came with it anyways, but it worked with the sandwich..adding a cooling agent for the heat. The sandwich was hot but not crazy hot. The chicken was crisp and the bun complimented it quite nicely. Would I get the sandwich again? Maybe..maybe not. It wasn't bad in anyway but it wasn't anything special. I might go for a burger next time, and an order of truffle fries for sure. The staff here is always nice. The waiter we had this last time was outstanding. With how busy it was he was overly attentive of every detail of our meals. Our glasses never went empty. The Yard House is a great place to stop by when in town. Before or after a game..it is right next to the stadium and all. And for beer drinkers..from what I hear..you'll love what they have to offer here. read more

I have been to Yard House in Indianapolis a couple of times and loved it, so was excited to try this location after a day spent watching the Bengals training camp. However, my wife and I were unfortunately pretty disappointed from start to finish. The bar area wasn't the cleanest, service was lacking, and the food was just not very good. The onion rings weren't at all crispy, my club sandwich was mediocre, and the nachos were nothing special. We had high hopes from our experience at the Indy location and really looked forward to our dinner, but it was just not the quality of food or service we were expecting. read more

It has been a while since I've been to a Yard House, and I didn't remember it being so good. My turkey burger was great because the tomato-onion jam put it over-the-top. My wife got the half-sandwich and salad, and enjoyed it. We finished the meal with me eating 90% of the bread pudding dessert. It wasn't too big, but it was good. I just wish the Reds would have played as well as Yard House tasted. Back again at Yard House, the turkey burger was good and Whitney's service was ok. The problem is that I paid $10 for about 2 square inches of bread pudding dessert. It should have cost about $5 for what I received. I'll remember for next time I come to Yard House. Back again Valentines weekend 2020 for lunch and still only 3-stars at best. First of all, prices are up, but I would expect that due to the Great Trump Economy. Second, our server was not very attentive as she had a large group next to us hoping for a fantastic tip, I guess. Third, the food was good, except my wife's tortilla soup came without a spoon. After 10+ minutes, our server came by and did provide a spoon. We also ordered a side of sweet potato fries that ended up arriving as we were finishing our meal. We ended up sending them back. Next time in Cincinnati, we'll probably pass on Yard House and maybe end up at Maggiano's, we'll see. read more

If you're a vegetarian in search of a restaurant with a lot of yummy vegetarian options Yard House should definitely be on your radar. In fact, I first fell in love with Yard House when I saw their extensive vegetarian menu and subsequently ordered the Buffalo Gardein Wings. Holy moly, those wings are so delicious! They've also got a lettuce wrap appetizer which my family thoroughly enjoys. You can make your own wrap and keep it vegetarian or choose chicken and there are three different sauces that come with it as well. All in all, the food menu is extensive and I've never had anything less than fantastic there. On to the drinks! The beer menu is super extensive and you can find just about anything you're looking for. We've ordered the yards before, which is always a fun experience! I'd just say make sure you get something you can drink quickly so you finish it before it gets warm. Last, but not least, the location is nice, right down on the banks by the river, though that does mean in most cases you're going to have to pay to park in the garage, but street parking is sometimes available. The seating is good, which has made it a favorite of my large family for birthdays and celebratory dinners. The atmosphere is also nice, the servers and bartenders are always friendly and inviting, and, as a bonus, we've run into a few Reds players down there, which is pretty cool! Definitely give Yard House a try if you haven't already, you will love it! read more

Our party of 8 enjoyed the round table for a Friday happy hour pre season game. We ordered several different apps which were all super delicious. Chicken nachos, spinach dip, a few different wings, pretzel with cheese, and garlic parm aioli fries. Only downfall was the nacho chips were very stale and not good. I don't know if they are different from last year, but they were always great. Staff was so nice and our server Rio was great! read more

The food was pretty good. Extremely overpriced for what the quality is. If you're looking for a quick bite on the banks I'd look at the Holy Grail. Probably the same quality of food with better service. The atmosphere is most like a business lunch and honestly is the only way I'd go back. read more

Our waiter and the view out the window were both really nice. As for the food...not great. We ordered the chicken nachos and calamari both were as if they had been left out and reheated. The seafood jambalaya was not bad but I wouldn't come back to order it. Overall wouldn't come back. read more

Tip: call ahead bc they don't take reservations. We were a family of 4 out for Saturday night dinner and to watch the KY basketball game. It's very loud at Yard House so expect loud music but they don't play the TVs over the speakers so it's music only. Music was good. We were seated on the winterized outdoor patio and it was comfortable in February with the overhead heaters and plastic covered windows. The pink sunset over the Bengals stadium was awesome. There were multiple large groups around us so that contributed to the volume but a positive vibe throughout. Our waitress was attentive and followed thru with our request for the UK game on a visible TV. Drinks were solid and as described by menu. Bold Fashioned was my favorite with a smooth smoky finish. On the sweeter side though and the integral dark cherry was absent. Hendricks and tonic with lime was spot on. Lemonade for the kids. Recommend bringing something for kids to do. Not the best ambiance for any child with sensory sensitivity but the dim lighting counterbalanced the speaker volume. Food: 4/5 stars. Chicken nachos could've used more chicken but poke bowl, kids pizza, and street tacos plate were all enjoyed. read more

VEGAN FRIENDLY!!! I LOVE IT! I always go here, the food taste amazing and they give vegan options.

I've had numerous people tell me (after finding out how much I LOVE beer and vegetarian cuisine) that I need to find a Yard House and go there. Well, I finally did. This was stop number two of our Cincy day drinking bonanza. We sat down at the bar and were greeted within a minute or so. I started with a Stupid Silly Sour and ordered some veggie buffalo wings. Both were everything I wanted. It's been almost impossible for me to find vegetarian wings, so I was very happy that they offered them. The texture and flavor were consistent with real wings (I haven't had chicken in 8 years, so maybe my memory is a little off). Even my omnivore wife was impressed. It should be noted that Yard House does, in fact, brew their own beer. My bestie ordered their House Honey Blonde and it was decent. The service was fast and our beer tender never made us wait for another pour. Overall, I was quite happy with my first Yard House experience and I will be seeking out another location closer to my home. read more
