    The Coco Passion, Long Beach Tea
    Maribel R.

    Out first time here! 10/10 We're on vacation and our first stop was this place, we're so glad we came because everything was amazing! We came during their happy hour and we got a lot of food: Three cheese pizza(simple-my least favorite) House Cheesesteak w/fries Fried calamari Sliders w/fries Boneless wings: whiskey black pepper, lemon pepper Poke nachos The coco passion cocktail Long Berry Tea cocktail Everything was absolutely delicious This place is a must try for sure. Our server was very knowledgeable and helpful and very friendly. It wasn't crowded either. 10/10

    We met some family from out of state who were staying in Orlando. My wife suggested going to Icon park so we could walk around and have fun. We went to yard house so everyone could get what they wanted. We sat outside with no wait I enjoyed the people watching and the weather. Our server was excellent making my son chocolate milk even though it wasn't on the menu. We managed to get there just in time for happy hour. I got the pumpkin spice ale and it was delicious. The kids meals are huge my wife and I split three appetizers that were half off.

    The food was great. I love that it on Idrive and stays open later. We still got good service coming at midnight. Ambiance is nice; very spacious location.

    We had already eaten elsewhere and were simply looking for a place to relax, enjoy a few drinks, and have a conversation. There were several places to choose from, but this one seemed like a good fit because it wasn't overly loud, and we wanted to be able to hear each other. We initially sat outside, but we were told they had stopped serving the outdoor seating area, so we moved inside. Rather than wait for a server, we decided to order directly from the bar since it seemed like the faster option. There weren't enough seats at the bar for our group of five, so we grabbed a nearby booth. The bartender was friendly, and our drinks were excellent. Unfortunately, that's where the positive experience ended. Although people were not coming in, but some people were eating, and enjoying drinks throughout the restaurant, it seemed like the staff had started cleaning up for the night. A server came over, and we explained that we were only there for drinks. After we received our drinks from the bar, he returned and told us that we would soon have to get up so he could clean the table. Seriously? I looked around and saw several other tables where some guests were simply sitting, talking, and enjoying their drinks. They weren't eating either. It made us feel as though, because we had only ordered beverages, we weren't as welcome as everyone else. I chose not to let one person's behavior ruin our evening because I'd rather believe that one employee doesn't represent the entire establishment. In fact, the bartender was great, and the drinks were very well made. What disappointed me was the server's attitude. I wasn't aware that ordering drinks at a restaurant with a full bar wasn't enough to be considered a paying customer, especially when there weren't enough bar stools to accommodate our group. His approach came across as rude, unprofessional, and completely unnecessary. Needless to say, we were not going to get up until we had finished out drinks, and we did not. I may return to try the food because the drinks were impressive, but if I ever encounter that same server again, I definitely won't be sitting in his section.

    Yard house is one of our favorite date night spots on I Drive. We stopped by since we were in the area. We didn't have a reservation and the wait time was over 40 minutes but we were able to find a couple seats at the bar. We came in for a couple drinks and some appetizers. The shrimp was delicious, the queso was to die for and the drinks were made to perfection. My husband loves their beer collection. I enjoy their expresso martinis. Honestly all the drinks I've had here have been great, that's just my go to at the moment. They were playing the game so we ordered a couple more drinks and sat at the bar for a bit. Great energy from everyone, including the staff. Loud but not super loud where we couldn't hold a conversation. Yard house has not let us down. One of the best chain restaurants we've been to and frequent

    Came here late at night with a party of 5, was told we needed to wait 15 minutes for a high top then they pulled us inside only a few minutes after waiting and sat us at a lower table, which was fine. It took a while for our server to greet us so we started ordering through the Ziosk. She took our drink order and brought out our drinks, and our ordered food came out. My poke nachos came without avocado and the waitress was quite snippy with me when I asked if she could look into it, then she came back and dropped the avocado off and immediately walked away. We ordered more food through the ziosk and finished our meal. With our odd-feeling interactions with the waitress and the food not coming out correctly, I hope my next visit is better than this one was.

    I would suggest going on the website and reserving your spot ahead of time. It lets you enter the number of people in your party and gives you an estimated wait time, which I found to be pretty accurate. It sends you text updates, and the technology is actually pretty cool. It can tell when you're not close enough yet and will tell you to check in once you're closer to the restaurant. There were 6 of us in the group, so reserving ahead definitely helped. I actually had to do it twice because we reserved our spot before we left, and by the time we got there, it had timed out. I checked in again, and when we arrived, the host said, "I see you checked in twice." He told us the wait would probably be about 10 minutes, and we ended up waiting less than that before being seated. Considering it's at Icon Park and it was the night of a game, the place was packed with a lot of hustle and bustle. I was impressed that we were seated so quickly, especially with a party of 6. Our waiter, Matt, was amazing, and the food was amazing too. We ordered what felt like almost every appetizer on the menu. We had the Cali Roll Stack, Parmesan truffle fries, crispy Brussels sprouts, spinach dip, and the vegan Gardein wings. The Cali Roll Stack was probably my favorite appetizer. It was so good, and it was made with real crab. Most places use imitation crab, and Matt even told us that's why it's his favorite appetizer too. He was absolutely right. The Gardein wings were surprisingly good. We ordered the Korean chili garlic and Buffalo flavors, and if nobody had told me they were vegan, I probably wouldn't have known. I'd never had a soy-based wing before, but I would definitely order them again. The Parmesan truffle fries were exactly what you want them to be, and the crispy Brussels sprouts disappeared fast. At that point, it seemed like everyone else was tapped out, but somehow we still had room to eat. We ordered the lobster garlic noodles, and they were amazing. They didn't skimp on the lobster either. There were big chunks of real lobster throughout the dish, along with spinach and garlic noodles. Definitely one of my favorite entrées of the night. I also tried the Key Lime Cider, and I liked that they let me sample it before ordering. It ended up being really refreshing and exactly what I was looking for. For dessert, we shared the brownie cookie topped with ice cream. Oh my God. I don't even like chocolate like that, and it was amazing. Yard House has never really disappointed me, but this visit was especially good. I don't know if we were just starving or if the chef was having an exceptional night, but kudos and hats off to the kitchen. Parking was easy too. Levels 3 and 4 of the garage were free, so there was no need to pay or get anything validated. Overall, everything was smooth from start to finish. Great service, great food, easy parking, and a surprisingly short wait despite how busy it was. 10/10, highly recommend.

    Christine, Robert, and leadership who offered to pack up our dinner tonight - Thank you! Little did you know, I celebrated my new dream job today and out of all the restaurants - we wanted to celebrate here. Happy hour is affordable and the selections for apps are to-die for. We shared the calamari and queso dip, and my fiance got the pork chop and I got the steak bowl. Pork chop and steak was cooked to tender and the veggies were seasoned perfectly. It was a reminder why we chose this place as a celebration. Thank you for a wonderful night! I wish we got the manager's name, but he was with Robert and we thank-you for hosting us and creating a special space of hospitality. We enjoyed the night and can't wait to come back and bring our friends and family. Spent my first dream job paycheck here. That says something!

    We have never seen a Yard House so we decided to give it a try. It's owned by Darden who owns Olive Garden, Bahama Breeze, etc. I think this is probably one of their best restaurant concepts. The place is large and there are lots of staffing moving around quickly. It can be a bit loud inside so if you want to carry on a relaxing conversation I would recommend getting a table outside. The inside is large with plenty of seating options. Food - We both had burgers and they were cooked perfectly. The Bacon and Blue could have used just a bit more blue cheese. The bacon was plentiful and crispy (not two little 4 inch fatty pieces like fast food placed). My friend opted to swap out fries for Mac and cheese. The portion size was large enough for two, but it wasn't the best mac we've had - tasted mostly like cheddar cheese and not creamy. Beverages - lots of choices from the bar. I tried a Key Lime Cider that was so refreshing and there is a full bar. There is a brewery above the resturant - not sure it's in use but it looks neat. Atmosphere - it's a large place and can get loud inside. We checked out several places in Icon park and this was the only place that had a wait, but it was worth it. There are lots of places to choose from in the area, but I'm sure we will be back and looking for other locations in other cities.

    We came here over the weekend for lunch and enjoyed our time and meal here! There was plenty of seating available both in and outdoors. We decided to sit outside since it was so nice out! Our server was prompt and friendly. Our food came out quickly and correctly! Everyone enjoyed their meal, and the portioning was very fair. Overall we had a great experience and would come back again if in the area!

    Steak Bowl
    Portia D.

    I was in Orlando for a conference and came here for lunch with members of my office. The steak bowl is delicious! The steak is cooked to order-makes a big difference. I had it cooked to medium....it was so tender. The mushrooms and the sauce added so much flavor! And as an added bonus it was in the under 600 calorie menu. Our server was also great-she was very friendly and very knowledgeable about the menu. It also is a large location-perfect for groups.

    Went here on a vacation and I honestly don't think I've ever had better service. Our waitress was top line and incredibly impressive. How she remembered our huge groups order without even writing anything down is still a mystery to me. She filled our drinks when they were not even a quarter of the way empty. Her knowledge of what's on tap and her recommendations were on point. If you are lucky enough to get Sinead as your server, you won't be disappointed. She deserves all the raises.

    We went to this Yard House because we've enjoyed other locations, and this one definitely holds its own. It's a huge space, so even on a busy Saturday night it felt well organized. My husband and I split the fried calamari, which was just so-so, and the orange chicken with Korean rice, which was actually very good. Big plus for our waiter being attentive, especially given how busy it was. One tip: add your name to the waitlist ahead of time. We did, and by the time we arrived, our table was ready -- super smooth and worth doing. Be aware that it gets very noisy inside. It was too cold to sit outside when we went, so that wasn't an option. Still, overall it's decent, reliable, and does the trick when you're looking for a lively spot with consistent food. To me its not fantastic, its decent. And that's something I know is good. Decent value as well.

Hands down the star of the show was the shrimp dish, perfectly cooked, packed with flavor, and honestly some of the best we've had in a while.

We chose seats at the bar and were greeted promptly by Brian and Rowan. Because there were a lot of people and just the two of them, they were running around taking orders from tables as well as servicing the bar so it did take a little bit to get our drink orders in, but we were enjoying looking through the whiskey library anyways. I started off with a Suncreek blonde ale. It is strawberry blonde ale and it's delicious. My husband started with the Yingling. He keeps hoping they will bring the Kentucky bourbon ale back on tap again. For lunch, I got the whiskey dip which is full of chopped beef with cheese and onions. Served with an herb, dipping sauce, and your choice of side. I opted for the sweet potato waffle fries because they are delicious. My husband got a burger with fries cooked perfectly. Once we are done with our food, we did opt for a taster. My husband had to go through several different bottles before he found one they actually had in stock. That is one of the downside is the whiskey library that is online is not always reflective of what they actually have in stock as he was really looking forward to trying the old Fitzgerald birthday, but alas, they did not have it in stock. He ended up going with the jack Daniels 12 year and really enjoyed it. I opted for the widow Jane 14 year very sweet easy to drink. Great service from Bryan and Rowan always enjoy seeing them behind the bar

Their water comes in a cold carafe with cool looking cups, so that's a plus. Other than that, I don't know how they stay open. $25 burgers that are not USDA Prime or some form of Wagyu isn't it. $19 for 8 wings. $13 for a 22oz Sam Adams. Nothing about this place appealed to us. We were in and out in 30 minutes. It was a few people there when we got there, but it emptied out by the time we left. It's an amazing concept and the location is very nice, but the atmosphere and vibe is terrible there. I ordered a beer, and dude called it in over a walkie-talkie and it came out seconds later. That annoyed me too, he couldn't go and get mt beer? He just stayed on his post behind us.

    Birthday celebration turned into a major disappointment…read more I chose Arcade Monsters for my 41st birthday after calling and visiting beforehand to ask about the bar. I specifically asked whether they served Tito's vodka with soda and lime and was told they had a full bar. That was a deciding factor in booking. During the party, drinks were served without anyone explaining that the "liquor" was wine-based. I only learned that after ordering my third drink. My guests and I had been led to believe they were getting actual spirits, and it was embarrassing to have to explain the difference after the fact. The food was just as disappointing. The chicken nuggets were so bad we threw them away, and a guest told me their child became sick after eating the pizza. The private room was hot, and the fans blew napkins and other things around the table. I spent more than $800 on the room, food, drinks, admission, and fees. The only part of the event that went as expected was admission. I contacted management to request a refund for the non-admission charges and have not received a response to my follow-up asking what they intend to do. This was supposed to be a special birthday celebration. Instead, the bar was misrepresented, the food was poor, the room was uncomfortable, and management has left my complaint unanswered. I would not book a private event here again.

My husband got the pork chop for dinner, which is his go to and like always it was perfectly cooked. He very rarely orders pork chops at any other restaurant that we dine at, but he always gets it here that tells you just how good it is. I stuck with my go to which is the creste de Gallo. The flavor in the dish is just so good and the portion size is perfect. Even though it's pasta, I never walk away feeling like I am completely stuffed and can't move - Unlike other pasta dishes I've had at other places.
