    Onion Ring Tower
    Alano V.

    Came here for a quick dinner after shopping nearby! Cheese curds were so bomb, we're from WI so we werent sure if they were going to be good. We got the onion ring tower but was not impressed, we didn't even finish it! We also got the sliders that were really good. I got their lavender rosemary martini which was pretty good. My cousin tried the virgin piña and liked it. Waitress was super great, came and checked in on us and was really nice. It was super busy so we had to wait a bit. Very much sports bar vibes but liked the energy. A bunch of different seating, very big space!!

    Salmon with veggies and potatoes, delicious sweet sauce was served on the side.

    Visit date: 11/12 I had an early dinner here solo while traveling for work. It was 5pm and the place was PACKED! I couldn't believe it, but it was likely the great happy hour specials on food and drink. Definitely packed for a weeknight at 5! I ordered a beer at the bar and then placed a carryout for the teriyaki salmon. The different servers at the bar were great. Very friendly (even given they were slammed!). The staff were good natured, professional, and efficient. My food was delicious too! They packaged the salmon carryout nicely, I really enjoyed it!

    Though majority of the food is greasy and frozen food, this place has good choices for appetizers and best happy hour deals. They are quick to bring the food and service is always faster. The ambience is perfect for a bar.

    Happy hour half off pizza and drink specials.

    The half off appetizer menu from 3 pm to 6 pm is definitely an experience. The food are generously portion out and every plate was delicious. The service the staff from the host, to the servers, back off the house chef/ line cooked, and food runner, is unbelievably fast and friendly considering how busy it was. The ambiance of the dining area is generally natural lighting. A few battery operated candles. And over head lighting.

    Super good lunch here!! Very spacious, noise level wasn't bad. Servers were very nice. My drink never sat at a low level for long. They were refilling and taking any dishes in a timely manner so we have space. I got a mix and match two tacos, Korean and fish. I didn't want the rice and beans so I asked for it to be switched out for fries. I got plain fries. Love that I could make a substitution. The fish was extra crunchy!! Stayed in the taco well too. There was a good amount of sauce also. The Korean had a good crunch. Sauce was good but a little heavy handed. The toppings weren't bad either. Only thing is that I had a hard time keeping the chicken in the taco. I just wish I had more lime on the side. Citrus and the spice on the Korean sauce would have sangggg. The fries were all consistent and crispy. I'd come again and try more. Before coming here, I only knew of the onion ring stacks but now I have more reason to come back!

    Came here on a happy hour (it worth every penny) i loved the poke nachos, the pizza and the battered chicken fingers. I felt that the artichoke dip it was salty enough to have the nachos salty, so it was a little over salted for me. The waitress was great and she was at all moment making sure we were not missing anything. Would keep coming back for the happy hour

    This place FILLS UP! It's like every other Yard House I've ever been to. High quality food, made fresh, huge beer selection. Service is generally pretty good in my experience. I like that they do a good job trying to get people seated ASAP, but the reality is that it's a busy spot and sometimes there's a bazillion people there. Environment is on the frenetic side, and it gets rowdy during game days. But other than that, I'm happy to come by and get my whisky salmon. Delicious.

    I would say Yard house is pretty much like an upscale Chili's. They have popular, classic American food. The food was okay. I think it is only worth it if you come from the happy hour, which we did. They are known for their large selection of beer, so if you're a beer person, this place is for you. Otherwise, I found the food okay. The interior nice and staff is nice!

    I went to Yard House years ago and never went back. I happened to come this time because this is where my group wanted to meet up. I won't be coming back after this either. The food just isn't good. The chicken nachos had absolutely no flavor. My sangria was good. Service was great. The waitress did a great job accommodating such a large group. We had about 20 ppl in our party on a busy summer weekend. I really like how splitting the check was no big deal at all. We just passed around the device and paid and left a tip without having to wait for checks to come. More restaurants should implement this method. 1 star for the service, sangria, and splitting the checks. I think that's fair.

    WOULD recommend (Dinner). Came here with the family for a casual dinner. Online they had say there was no wait for 5, but don't trust the website. For a 7pm on Saturday, there will always be late, so just come on time. Wasn't bad though 25 minutes wait. When we walked inside, the space was big and welcoming, I would literally come back just to catch a basketball game at their bar. We started off with some traditional wings as appetizers, across the table, we game them an 8/10 rating (average). We then received our entrees which included the Korean BBQ Cheesesteak (mine) the Hand-crafted Tenders, 8oz Filet Mignon, Spicy Jambalaya w/ Linguine Noodles, Two PepperJack Burger. I can mainly speak for myself, the Cheesesteak wasn't bad but I wasn't feeling that bread though. It reminded me of the bread for the sandwiches they serve in the lunch cafeteria (Overall: 7/10 rating). It seemed like the best thing on at the table was the Spicy Jambalaya, was given 10/10. The burger was given a 7/10 as well, so the handhelds at this spot don't seem to be the best compared to the others (Mains, Pizza, etc.) Overall, this place seems like a small step up from a chain restaurants like Chili's. The best part was the interior as the service wasn't the best in the world, but everyone that worked there were respectful to us. I would only recommend if you want a little step up from Applebee's, TGI, Cheesecake Factory, etc but still want something very casual. Maybe would come back to enjoy their enormous bar that wraps around the center of the restaurant, since they have a very expanded assortment of drinks with lot.

    While I was visiting Lombard for the week, one of the evenings, on a Thursday night, I had dinner at the Yard House! This Yard House is located at Fountain Square. Our group had a reservation for a table of 18 at 5:30 P.M. We weren't seated until 5:45 P.M though. Our tables overlooked the bar area, which had several TVs situated above the bar. The Yard House was playing several sports games, including a hockey game! We had about 3 different team members from the Yard House assist our table. They took drink orders, appetizers, entrée orders and even desserts! This Yard House location offered a wide range of options to choose from. You can order off of their appetizer menu which included some of the following selections Onion Ring Tower Fried Calamari Classic Sliders Edamame Wisconsin Fried Cheese Curds and so much more! Their entrees included hamburgers, pizzas, chicken sandwiches, tacos, steaks, seafood, soups, and salads. There are so many options to choose from! It's always hard to select a food option at Yard House! This time, I ended up going with the Philly Cheesesteak (No sauce!) and for dessert, the Oreo Brookie. Since our table was relatively large, the appetizers came out first within 15-30 minutes. Our entrees arrived at the table within an hour. The Philly Cheesesteak was delicious! It was loaded with cheese, melted over the thinly sliced steak. It was seasoned perfectly. The bread was fresh too! The French Fries were good. Perfectly fried, but seasoned lightly. The Oreo Brookie was phenomenal! I ended up asking for it to be delivered at the same time as the Philly Cheesesteak since I needed to leave the Yard House by 7:00. There was a huge scoop of Vanilla ice cream on top of the Oreo brownie. It was delicious! I couldn't eat all of it, so I brought the rest back to the hotel! This is a great Yard House in Lombard Chicago! I'd visit here and eat again if I was in Lombard for another event!

    Dragon fruit cosmo

    Best option for beer lovers! You can't ever go wrong with their onion ring tower and yumm dipping sauces . I had the best dragonfruit cosmo this time around with a shrimp bowl. The shrimp bowl is so filling and is included in the low calorie options!I would most definitely recommend you try both options out!

    Jambalaya
    Don R.

    I came here with a work group of about a dozen, and the overall experience was terrific. We had two servers covering our table, and they were on top of it. Everything came out with no problems, everyone seemed to have a good time, and what more could you want? Upon suggestion, I had the jambalaya, and it was so very good.

We arrived on a Friday night just before 9:00 PM and had no trouble finding street parking--always a win. We were greeted by our waitress, Jennifer, who was absolutely amazing. She let us know about their late-night perk: half-price small plates and select drinks on Fridays and Saturdays from 9 PM until close, which is such a great incentive for heading out later in the evening. Jennifer was attentive without being intrusive--our water glasses were always full, she checked in after every course, and her recommendations for both food and drinks were spot-on. We started with a Mad Rose for V and a Chameleon for me. Both cocktails were delicious, and after finishing his Mad Rose, V definitely felt the celebratory spirit kicking in. For appetizers, we shared the Vietnamese Summer Rolls and Sweet Chili Calamari. The summer rolls were light, fresh, and nicely accented with mint. The calamari was sweet with a surprisingly spicy finish--delicious, though the heat was just a bit much for V. I'd happily order both again. For my main course, I had the Wagyu Beef Stroganoff, and wow--hands down the best stroganoff I've ever had. The beef was incredibly tender, and the sauce was perfectly balanced with the noodles. It even paired beautifully with my Chameleon, with subtle lemon notes that complemented each other surprisingly well. V ordered the Tomahawk Pork Chop, cooked medium well and absolutely perfect. He loved every bite. It came with a risotto that he enjoyed, even if it wasn't the standout of the dish. Dessert sealed the deal. We finished with Sandy's White Wine Cake--which reminded me of a carrot cake in the best way--and the Banana Cream Pie, which was easily the best banana cream pie I've ever had. Truly a WOW moment. Between the excellent food, thoughtful service, and great late-night specials, Entourage made V's birthday celebration one to remember. We'll definitely be back. Sorry, I wish I had pics but I left my phone behind today.

Sophia is the kind of manager you rarely come across -- young, approachable, and genuinely passionate about what she does, yet carrying herself with the quiet confidence of someone who's been doing this for decades. We grabbed seats at the bar and were lucky enough to try her newest cocktail creation, the Greek Dirty Martini, and wow -- it is a showstopper. A brilliant, creative twist on a classic that somehow feels both bold and perfectly balanced. It's already my new go-to, and honestly reason enough to come back. But what really sets Sophia apart is how she makes every guest feel seen. She came over to us at the bar, asked about our experience, and actually listened. No script, no rush -- just genuine care. You can feel her energy ripple through the entire staff too; the team is warm, attentive, and clearly inspired by her example. Sophia is the real deal. Remember her name -- because she's going places. This spot is lucky to have her, and we'll absolutely be back.

Portions were satisfying, and the presentation made the dishes look as good as they tasted. The restaurant has a clean, contemporary atmosphere that's comfortable for both casual meals and quick stops. Service was friendly and efficient, even during a busy period. Overall, Modern Plate is a solid choice for a flavorful and well-made meal. A bit more menu variety would make it even better, but I'd gladly return.
