    GREAT SERVICE! A very busy location, but very attentive servers. The vibe is different than other yard houses I've been to but always a fun location to visit. I will say the food tastes a lot better here than other locations.

    Four Cheese Spinach Dip

    Decided to come here because we had horrible service at BJ's so we came here to get a late night bite. We were seated right away and the place was packed because everybody was watching FIFA. We got a booth right across from the bar and it was nice because it was so lively and entertaining. They also had really good music playing in the background which added to the vibe. Our server was very nice. She came and took our order and also answered any questions that we had about any food items. We ordered spinach dip for the table, and it comes with these really hot and warm tortilla chips. We enjoyed that. We ordered a sandwich, a Caesar salad with avocado added, and fish and chips. Everything was delicious. For drinks: Booze Free Mojito, Another mocktail with pineapple, and a sprite. Everything was well prepared and delicious. We really enjoyed our dining here. The only thing I have to say is that I wish they would clean the booths underneath a little bit more. The whole time I dined I felt just dirt and debris under my feet under the booth, but otherwise everything was great.

    Great HappyHour! Stopped in before a movie for a quick bite and it was well worth it! No wait for a table (5pm) and the service was fast! Food came super fast, we had to wait longer to get our beer. Happy hour selection was pretty good with 1/2 off select apps and pizzas. Will sure be coming back!

    Whoever is hiring and/or training the waitstaff at this Yard House is doing a great job. From the hostess who greeted us with a smile despite the all day World Cup fans line and sat us at a lovely booth to the two waiters who both provided very pleasant and prompt service throughout, the service here was well above bar compared to other SD spots in this category. Half price HH food deals and $2 off all draft beers was the lure for us, and the two Belgian taps that I tried really delivered. Unfortunately, the food was a let down. The onion ring tower was composed of sad, soft and underseasoned specimens. I appreciated that the HH tenders could be ordered as a Gardein veg version, which was decent but the accompanying fries tasted like they'd been sitting out too long. However, I did really enjoy the honey mustard sauce here. I sum, while the food was either just ok or total miss here, the excellent service and solid beers make Yard House - Mission Valley mall worth a repeat HH visit.

    I am happy I decided to lunch here before our movie at AMC. So convenient and you can't beat the beer choices! I literally don't know where you will find such a great selection. And they serve it in the really large glass actually and there is ample space to have a party. Maybe on my birthday? I ordered the simple Caesar and the garlic noodles with some salmon on the side for an extra 7.50 and it was such a great portion and so good! Service at the bar is faster but budget about an hour and a half before your movie. Sit and people watch or watch sports.

    Came here for the 3-6pm happy hour. The place was packed even on a weekday due to the FIFA season. The service is friendly and attentive. Beer selection is great. The onion ring and chicken tender are not made to order, both of them are cold and kinda greasy when served to us.

    I went in on a busy Saturday afternoon and sat at the bar. Staff were really friendly. I ordered the queso appetizer and half of a barbecue chicken salad. The food came out quickly. The queso was fine, but had a very weird mouth feel. Like it didn't feel like cheese. It comes with tortillas and tortilla chips. I did not eat very much of it. The barbecue chicken salad was fine. A little too many beans for me which I was not expecting. But it's a fun place to go with a big menu. Tons of beer to choose from.

    LOVE the happy hour! It's such a great deal and everything is fairly priced. I usually go for their Buffalo ranch pizza. Garlic chili wings, and cheese curds. Everything is big enough to share as well. The service is always fast. You can order all apps on the kiosk and get the sent over. They have plenty of seating for big and small groups.

    I genuinely don't know how it took me this long to try Yard House happy hour because this might be one of the best happy hour deals I've found in San Diego. This review is actually from two separate visits because after the first one I already knew I needed to come back. The Mission Valley location is huge with booths, bar seating, high tops, and plenty of room for bigger groups. I went once around 3:30 PM and once around 5 PM. If you're trying to avoid a wait, definitely go earlier. At 3:30 there were plenty of open tables. At 5 PM the place was packed with people getting off work and we had to hop on a waitlist. We were quoted 20 minutes but got seated much quicker than that. The biggest thing you need to know is that the happy hour food is 50% off. Most dishes end up being around $5 to $10 which is honestly kind of crazy considering the portion sizes. To start, I ordered the Paloma and this thing was good. It had tequila, grapefruit, citrus agave, and a salted rim. Super refreshing and balanced. Not too sweet and definitely a generous pour. Later on I got an espresso martini which was also really solid. Smooth, strong enough to give you that little coffee kick, and honestly a perfect after dinner cocktail. Now for the food. The chicken lettuce wraps were easily one of my favorite things I tried. The chicken had a great ginger-forward marinade and a nice charred flavor. It comes with both peanut sauce and sweet chili sauce and both were delicious. The crazy part was the portion size. We filled every lettuce cup and still had chicken left over. This is a must-order. The sliders were good too. Nothing life changing but exactly what you'd want from a slider. Juicy burger, cheese, pickles, fries on the side. My partner loved these way more than I did because he's a burger person. The calamari though? Skip it. There was way too much breading and not enough calamari. The pieces were small, kind of rubbery, and the breading didn't have much seasoning. It came with a jalapeño tartar sauce and a spicy tomato sauce. The jalapeño sauce was actually pretty good but it wasn't enough to save the dish. We barely touched it and left most of it behind. The poke nachos were another favorite and I've ordered them both visits. They're not going to compete with a dedicated poke spot but for happy hour they're really good. The sweet soy ginger sauce is what makes the whole dish for me. My second visit actually had way more ahi and avocado too which made it even better. The only thing I'd probably change next time is getting the truffle sauce on the side because it kind of takes over the whole dish. I also got the crème brûlée cheesecake because that name sounds amazing. Unfortunately it was just okay. It wasn't bad. It just wasn't memorable. It tasted like regular cheesecake with a crème brûlée top. The berries on the side helped but I wouldn't order it again. During my second visit we tried the Korean garlic boneless wings, Wisconsin cheese curds, and crispy Brussels sprouts. The wings were fine. The sauce just didn't have enough flavor to make them stand out. I did love the generous amount of green onions on them. The cheese curds, however, were delicious. Ridiculously cheesy inside, but i wish they were crispier on the outside. The hot honey sauce paired really well with them. Also the portion is massive, so definitely order these with people. The absolute star of the entire review is the Brussels sprouts. Whatever sauce they use on these should be bottled and sold. They're sweet, garlicky, salty, tangy, and completely addictive. I kept reaching for them over everything else on the table. These will be ordered every single time I come back. Yard House is absolutely worth checking out for happy hour. The service has been great both visits, the portions are huge, and the prices are hard to beat.

    I love coming here. The beer selection is huge and I always go for dragons milk! The service is top notch, our server was really nice. I love the ambiance in here, any occasion the setting inside always fits the unique vibe for anything. I recommend the grilled brussel sprouts and poke nachos!

    My fav adult beverage....hard pineapple cider

    Great place to watch a sports game as they have plenty of TVs throughout the restaurant. The happy hour is my favorite time to go as they have discounts on drinks and food. You can pretty much have dinner from the happy hour menu as it includes half off on the pizzas. The service here is really good as they always seem to be well staffed. The restaurant is super spacious, but can get a little loud

    Classic Sliders and onion rings
    Melissa R.

    My husband and I came to the Mission Valley Mall to try out the new sushi place; however, they had a three-hour wait, so we decided to go to Yard House instead. It worked out perfectly because we actually had a gift card for Yard House. We arrived at Yard House around 3:30 PM, and the hostesses greeted us right away. There was no wait at all, so they seated us quickly. As two larger people, my husband and I really appreciated the comfortable booths they have. The lighting felt romantic and cozy, and while the bar area was a little loud, we understood that because of the sports playing on the TVs. We also really loved the music they were playing. Our server, Theresa, was so sweet and attentive. We ordered the spinach dip appetizer, the sliders with onion rings, and the carnivore pizza. My husband got the recommended pairing for the pizza, which was a Hefeweizen beer, and I just got water. They brought our food out in no time at all. The spinach dip was hot and very delicious, and it paired perfectly with their tortilla chips. My husband loved the carnivore pizza and his beer; it wasn't a heavily sauced pizza, but it had a lot of great flavor. My sliders were fresh and delicious, and I loved that they put the pickle chips on the side just in case I didn't like pickles. The onion rings were also hot and fresh, and I loved the batter on them--it had a hint of sweetness. We ended up with a lot of leftover food to bring home, and it was still great when we reheated it. We will definitely be back again!

    Stopped in for a drink before a movie and I loved the Draft BlackBerry pear by Bücha - it's a hard kombucha brewed in San Diego using organic, California grown blackberries and bartlett pears from local farms. Staff were quick to help me at the bar and they were friendly too. The space was crowded - it was a Friday night and there was a sports game on.

This experience last year was probably 2-3 stars, not good. But fast forward a year and some months later, they have a "Free Spirited" section on their menu now!!! This time I also went with a fruity drink and it was actually really good!! I'm glad Part Time Lover has turned a new leaf and actually put conscious effort into their mocktails. We also came here earlier on a Thursday night so it wasn't packed, was very easy to get a seat and just hangout. This better experience bumped up my impression of the place, so 4 stars!

Paper menus used to be available, however like many eateries, they have moved to a QR code provided at each table to scan and view the online version. Breakfast fare was served until 2 pm. What caught my attention was the Shrimp and Cheddar Grits ($17). The dish consisted of two eggs any style, chili-rub shrimp, diced bacon, and tomato in a bed of cheddar laced grits. I asked for the eggs to be scrambled. The bowl came with a decent serving of the above contents. I liked the addition of the bacon and tomato that gave a salty and acidic flavor profile, respectively. The disappointment was only three medium sized shrimp were included. I had expected double that number because shrimp was the first word in the name of the item so it should have been featured more. The service from the waitress was pleasant. I gave a 3.5 rating for this visit to Working Class.
