    Chicken Nachos, spinach dip
    Jessica B.

    Came here for happy hour with my work girls and had a great time! The appetizers did not disappoint - everything we ordered was on point. My only note: the spinach dip could use a little more love. The chip-to-dip ratio is off, and you'll find yourself wanting more dip before the chips are gone. Beyond that, Yard House delivers. It's a great spot for groups - family-friendly, downtown, and clearly focused on making everyone happy. The menu is massive, which means no one gets left out, and there's always something new to try on your next visit. Already looking forward to going back.

    I've been to Yard House a couple times and this time the food this time was decent. My coworkers and I went for half priced apps and we ordered a ton of food. No judgement! The food was lukewarm and didn't seem fresh, but the taste was still there. The ambience is still inviting and perfect for big or small groups. Our server was amazing and tentative to our needs. I'd definitely return for the apps with hopes that they will be hot!

    Always the best beer in town! Delicious appetizers, extensive menu filled with favorites, lots of tv's, quick and fantastic service! Yard House is great to watch a game at, grab a beer, have happy hour...and stay for lunch or dinner! It's always fun, always delicious and you always leave happy!

    Went in quick for happy hour before seeing a movie. The food was good, our server was attentive and nice. They have a nice happy hour menu and I'll be back to try more!

    Truffle cheese burger Sweet Potato Fries
    Jared C.

    Service was good, nothing of note Got the truffle cheese burger medium well which was delicious. I liked the seated bun and enjoyed the truffle flavor with the burger. Sweet potato fries were in large quantity but a little floppy. Would come back again!

    Came here for an alumni pre college meeting before they head off to college in the fall, we were seated right away, and our waiter was great! Attentive and accommodating! I enjoyed a spicy melon mocktail, and enjoyed some very tasty tomato soup, with a grilled cheese, that I added avocado to, would definitely visit again! Love the vibe and selection! Check them out if you are in the area!

    Mediterranean Salmon

    Really healthy option. Mediterranean salmon was filling but light and healthy. On a bed of warm quinoa and cauliflower rice with kale and tomatoes. Highly recommended!

    I wish I could've given this place a higher rating. We arrived a little after 430pm, gave our phone number to the host and she said about 25 minute wait, GREAT!, meanwhile, large groups were sat and they yelled names and numbers for them like "NAME, party of 8" etc. around 510pm-515pm, I told my boyfriend to go ask about our table since no text was received and name not called. The host said, you didn't get a text? We said no and she said to wait 5 more minutes, (mind you, she didn't ask or question our phone number) about 10-15 minutes later, we saw them seating groups of 3-4 that came well after us. My boyfriend went to the host stand again and the male host asked is your phone number "7..." and we said no, it's "6.." and we asked to be seated immediately. Why didn't the host confirm the phone number upon entering it or after we said we didn't receive a text? Why did we have to see the host THREE times to be seated? We didn't get seated and greeted by server until around 530pm. We arrived early to avoid the long wait because we had plans to be at the theatre around 6pm and the host made sure that didn't happen. We immediately ordered our drinks and food since looked at the menu online while waiting, the food arrived before our drinks. Then we ordered dessert through the tablet. A manager came by to ask if food was okay and walked away before we could express our dissatisfaction with the waiting experience. This was our first visit and we aren't sure if we'll return. The food and drinks and dessert were good, but not worth the hassle we encountered. Also, we were sat next to a large table where several individuals were standing around the fully seated table making our server have to squeeze through the crowd which seemed like a safety concern.

    Anniversary dessert
    Melitta S.

    We had a fabulous dinner tonight!! Our server Morgan was exceptional!! I enjoyed the tacos (Korean chicken and battered fish ... both perfectly spicy accompanied by beans and rice) Cohort got cilantro lime chicken --- watching his figure. I loved both cocktails.. I had a coco passion and picante margarita. Each delicious in their own right. Cohort had beers. This place has over 100 on tap. Our server found out it was our Anniversary and brought dessert .... Um tear .... Way to make the night!!!! I'd come back when we're in the area. Lots of Football opportunities

    Korean bbq cheesesteak
    Vincent Y.

    I had the Korean BBQ Cheesesteak, onion rings, and whiskey black pepper and korean chili garlic boneless wings. Everything was fantastic. Very flavorful, onion rings were nice and crunchy. Of the three, the boneless wings were definitely the best. Unique flavors that shocked me with how amazing they were and full coated in sauce as well. My only criticism is that the Korean BBQ cheesesteak needed more cheese and had a little bit too much salt on it.

    Great service, cold beer, awesome music and lots of sports on the tvs. Can't go wrong with anything you order

    Calamari
    Staci L.

    A friend was in town and we went tonight to grab dinner downtown since her hotel was near. This was the worst food I have eaten in Indy. All of the sauces were gross tasting. The brussel sprouts were covered with a sauce that just did not taste good at all. The sauces for the calamari were so gross we didnt even it. The tuna tasted terrible, we each took one bite and did not eat it. The BLT looked good but even the bacon on it tasted off. We pretty much didnt eat anything. The calamari didnt come out until right before our food so our waitress had it taken off the bill. If i could give the food 0 star I would. The server was super friendly and on point. I will never eat here again. The pictures are about as good as the food.à

    Yes.

    There are many wheat-free options!

    Yeah. I think that is the nice place. I have seen there were many groups coming over for their birthday or other celebrations. I would still suggest call them and check before heading out!

I did see they allow you to make reservations on Open Table, so I booked it for a weekday to try it out. It wasn't nearly as busy as the parking lot looked, there was plenty of seating.

The servers wear whatever makes them comfortable and fits their style which is a nice touch to the theme. But where the home runs were was the food. We had a hard time deciding on an appetizer as they all sounded so good. We went with the wagyu pigs in a blanket. They are cooked perfectly and seasoned well and juicy. I got the chicken katsu sandwich on Japanese milk bread and o my gosh it was so flavorful and I like anything else you can find around. The breading is light and not overly crunchy. I still think about that sandwich. Hubby ordered the short ribs and he said they were flavorful and tender and juicy. I can't express how amazing the food is here. You just have to give it a try. It's worth it.

We were practically sitting on top of the other two individuals sitting at the table. Forgot conversation- we heard everything they said, they heard everything we said, might as well have been on a double date. They weren't short of two top tables either- there were at least two, two top tables that sat empty our entire dining experience. Our server was on it throughout the night. The food was good to okay. We started with bread service. One piece of my bread was cold, and the other was warm. The honey miso butter was maybe a highlight of the whole meal. I started with a kale Caesar salad. Nice crunch to it, and an appropriate amount of dressing. My wife and I split two meals. The first- Coq Au Vin Pot pie. The meat was flavorful- but man, there is a lot of pastry when compared to meat. We got the braised short ribs. I wouldn't call the short ribs, short ribs- it was more of like a pot roast taste and consistency. There was a decent flavor, but nothing overtly amazing. Our cocktails were strong, but nothing to write home about. Overall, wouldn't be my first stop for a restaurant downtown, but if I was invited by someone else, I would most likely try it again.
