    Fontina Vodka Penne
    Al B.

    I got the Fontina Vodka Penne and I have had it before at the Indy location and that one was far better. This one just lacked flavor, chicken was tough and sauce was lacking. Just not as great as I've had before. We had nice service but she was quick to push us out we felt when we were just enjoying our time on the patio. I would have understood if people were waiting but no one was and still plenty of open tables outside.

    Good late dinner here last night. Not starving, I tried something new...the ahi tuna crunchy salad. I was a little nervous the smaller portion wouldn't be enough, but it was plenty, and quite tasty too. My daughter had the chicken nachos appetizer, which was gigantic. My wife went with her regular tacos that she typically gets. Service was fair, but definitely not spectacular.

    Enjoyed a late dinner here and loved the vibe! It's a busy, well maintained restaurant. At the time of my visit, the hotel was hosting a conference so the restaurant was completely packed. That didn't prevent our server from checking on our group often and keeping our drinks full. Our food and drinks arrived fairly quickly after ordering as well. I got a pineapple cider and an ahi tuna crunchy salad. The portion size of the salad was decent for the price and was well made. I do wish there were more slices of tuna for the price of the dish. The pineapple cider tasted great as well.

    Yard house always slaps no matter what city we go in! The spicy garlic edamame is so delicious and they always have cool local beers on tap! While I am not huge on chain restaurants I can't resist a good yard house and will keep coming back for the consistent service food and atmosphere!

    Poke Nachos is one of my favorite appetizers, and they appear to be unique to the Yard House.

    Always a good experience. Modern American pub decor. Fast friendly service, and probably the largest food menu in the business next to Cheesecake Factory. For us travelers, they have a great formula of being consistent and reliable for good food, and an amazing beer selection. I make an effort to visit when I am in Denver (very convenient), but all the locations I have visited are consistently good.

    Always prompt service at this location! Food was excellent, kids were also happy with their menu options!! So many tap beer options was a plus !

    Espresso martini - yummy!
    Andrea R.

    Overall 3 1/2 star for food taste & quality. Casey was our waiter & rocked it! He was so friendly & full of great info! Full disclosure, we were here on Friday night & after checking into our hotel ran over for 1/2 off appetizers. We tried the house nachos, calamari, the ahi tuna, spinach dip & boneless chicken bites. -Calamari was ok, it wasn't great. -Ahi Tuna was good but you can leave off the edamame because it was strange in there. -too much sauces on the nachos made for a soggy eating experience. The Pros: -espresso martini was good -spinach dip was really good

    After we stopped in here for dinner, neither Diane nor I was impressed with the menu offerings. But we selected Fried Calamari as an appetizer, which was pretty crisp. And the Spicy Tomato Sauce with Horseradish accompanying it initially literally took my breath away. Sesame Shrimp Noodles mixed with Broccolini and disk-shaped Carrots were also spicy. Diane's Fish & Chips were pretty dark but she liked them. Coleslaw was rather grossly cut but just creamy enough. I had also ordered a Poke Salad but the server forgot to bring it. Because it was late, I let the matter drop. The men's restroom was out of toilet paper and messy, with tissues littering the floor. We finished our meal and walked out of the restaurant precisely at midnight as we heard the doors lock behind us. Street parking was nonexistent, and when we arrived just before 10:00 p.m., valet parking cost a flat fee of $35.00. XX-1/2 stars overall!

    We were immediately greeted and got seated with friendly service. We came during lunch hour on a Thursday. It was moderately busy with many tables still available. Our waitress frequently checked in on us and was super kind. We each ordered an entree which the portions came out much larger than we expected! The food was great for a quick bite downtown. Would definitely come back here!

    Chicken Grilled Chicken & Avocado Sandwich and Sweet Potato Fries
    Candace S.

    I had the chicken avocado sandwich with sweet potato fries and it was pretty tasty. The portion was so, so filling so I ended up finishing the sweet potato fries separately. Our waiter was new and he did a great job! I would return to this location again.

    I was in town for work and had to have a cheeseburger, for #nationalcheesebirgerday! It was Thursday Night Football so it was a bit crowded, but we were able to get a hi-top table in the bar. Our bartender/server, Sean, was AMAZING! Our drinks were great...Strawberry Mule was so refreshing. We started with the Calamari which was disappointing. It was the smallest calamari I've ever seen, which I'm sure was why it was quite tough. Our server immediately took it off our bill. The Fish & Chips were delish. The star of the day....the Burger was soooooo good and the Sweet Potato Fries (crispy of course) hit the spot. I've been to several yard houses in the past, but this one is in a great location in the heart of downtown Denver and the perfect spot to grab a drink, some food and watch a game.

    This Yard House is accessible from both the street and the lobby of the Sheraton Hotel. As many others have mentioned, it is VERY loud inside. We visited twice, once for lunch and once for dinner. Both times our small group had to yell at one another to be heard. Two members of our group appreciated the "gluten" menu. While this is pretty common in most Yard House locations, this one has a printed menu as well (not just on the table top mini kiosk). All of our meals were pretty standard for a Yard House. The one item that was not good was the chicken on the cobb salad. It was extremely dry and tough. Shout out to our dinner server, Connor! He was crazy busy, but was still welcoming, attentive, and just overall on top of everything!

    Big fan of yard house and this location upheld the standard. We came in on a busy college football Saturday and were seated swiftly. Our server was super kind and attentive and offered good suggestions. My husband and I both tried local Denver beers which was cool. Their spicy edamame is our favorite thing on the menu and consistently delicious. I tried the jambalaya this time and it was hearty, filling and really good. Great environment to post up and catch every game imaginable which is pretty much what we did.

After reading other reviews and checking out photos beforehand, I knew the Colorado lamb was a must-order. It's not something I usually go for, but it ended up being my favorite dish of the night. Absolutely worth the hype. We also ordered the birria short rib and hickory smoked picanha, and both were solid choices. The shrimp and corn grits were amazing, and I really loved the aged cheddar mac and cheese. Other dishes like the chickpea croquettes and the chili relleno were also pretty good and rounded out the meal nicely. The wait staff was fantastic. Super friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience even better. The restaurant itself has a cool, lively vibe. The only minor downside was that the outdoor heaters were a bit too hot, but that's a very small nitpick. Overall, an easy 5 out of 5 stars.

Would not order again. The soup was good! Not the best I've ever had but definitely good. The only thing was we ordered a soup but didn't specify and got the small size. I would specify a bowl if you want a meal sized portion. The grilled cheese that came with it was tasty! The chicken Caesar wrap was fine. Portion is sorta small but glad it comes with a side. Nothing too special. Overall the place is nice, staff is friendly and food is fine. I wouldn't particularly want to return but if a friend suggested, I'd give it another shot.

The pork is actually pretty similar to a piece of Kalua pork, we were eating with some Hawaiians and they thought it was just like kalua pork minus rice. I ordered the artichoke tortellini but it was extemely rich and I was a bit shocked by how creamy it was. Served with small pieces of artichoke hearts and some cheese. I found it was best if you ate it with a bit of the broth as it adds a lot of flavor that balances the super creamy tortellini. I loved the dessert-- it's basically a chocolate cake with raspberry sauce. Some of my table mates ordered the peas and carrots dessert and it looked really interesting kind of like a salad. I took off a star because they seemed to keep clearing only half the table and taking away our silverware without giving more. We found ourselves short of utensils a few times!
