Spicy Jambalaya
Yunhea K.

We stopped by for lunch because our Air BNB wasn't ready yet. We have been to different Yard Houses every where we go so it was only right. I got the Mediterranean salmon with just cauliflower rice (no quinoa) and it was cooked perfectly and I loved the flavor of the rice. I had it with a glass of red wine and it was the perfect lunch. My bf and one of my nephews got the jambalaya (one with noodles and one with rice) and my other nephew got nachos. Everything looked amazing. The flavor of the jambalaya was so good, flavorful and spicy. The shrimp and sausage was cooked perfectly. Yard Houses hasn't disappointed me yet.

Best burger and fries

Just a great spot. When I travel and find out there is the Yard House..,I already know it's gonna be some good eating I live in New Orleans and I like to travel. So believe when I say Good Food! I feel like I reviewed Yard House earlier. I feel like reminiscing so I will invite you to my food satisfaction file in my mind. lol. Wings//so lightly fried without the batter but crispy lemon pepper flavored Tacos --seafood with a lot of fixings on them Cheese burger --had to be a hand rolled patty seasoned to perfection They have great happy hours and the crowd is welcoming. But it could be the staff. All of them were very attentive and friendly. As you walk in you are welcomed to Yard House Bartender can mix anything. I did not mention in my session cus it would have tempted me to,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, Servor were very aware of our needs and helpful with the menu selection Great experience

Carne Asada Tacos
Eric W.

Yard House would not usually be my first dining choice when in an area, but we wanted something different around dinner. Our wait was less then 15 minutes for a table which was impressive. Our waitress needed to close out a large table so it took her a few minutes to get our beverages, but after that service was very fast. Yard Houe's menu is pretty big with Sandwiches, Burgers, Steak, Seafood, and many other items. The beer menu is expansive. I ordered three Carne Asada Tacos while my friend went with the Korean BBQ Cheesesteak. Our food arrived shockingly fast, only about ten minutes after ordering. Tacos were delicious and came with a mildly spicy beans and rice. My friend enjoyed his Korean BBQ Cheesesteak and upgraded his Fries to the Parm Truffle Fries, which he also liked. The only major negative to dining here is the price, as one meal with drink and trip was over $30. I would return here to dine again, as overall the food and service was very good.

Been to yard house before but this was my first time at this location. Went on the 4th of July so it was pretty busy and we were put on the waitlist. The wait wasn't too bad considering how packed it was. We waited about 20ish minutes. The server was nice and very attentive. The bathrooms were located about like 3 flights of stairs up, which wasn't an issue for me but maybe for others, however they do have an elevator. I ordered the 4 cheese spinach dip which the dip itself was good however, there was a little too much parmesan on top of the chips which made them taste dry. I also got the carne asada tacos, the flavor was good but the meat was tough to chew. Every bite felt like a workout for my jaw.

Filet Mignon steak 8 oz
Kevin C.

Good food. Steak was medium rare. Although it is quite pricey but felt nutritious and I was left satisfied and feeling good

Service was very slow and unorganized and it's crazy because I sat at the bar lol. I also feel like the nachos looked like slop. The presentation was crazy. Timmy was very nice and did the best he could.

Fontina Vodka Penne (with Shrimp)
Kaila K.

This restaurant comes highly recommended on Yelp and is just a short walk from the hotels downtown - even in the rain, the walk is worth it! We arrived to a line out the door on a Friday night but we only waited around 25 minutes for a table. The seating inside is plentiful and the atmosphere is loud but cozy and fun - family friendly and enjoyable. We enjoyed the most amazing food - Fontina Vodka Penne (with Shrimp), Kale & Romaine Caesar Salad, Whiskey & Aged White Cheddar Burger, 20oz Bone-in Ribeye. The steak and burger were cooked to perfection, the sauces were outstanding and the Caesar salad was by far the best out of all of this listed. The bar selection and beer selection were amazing - the menu clearly highlights the types of beer into each category which helps make a decision much faster. The Cider on tap was so good. The service was good- they were very busy so refills and checking in on us took a bit longer, but it was understandable and we didn't have any issues at all. Our server gave the best recommendations for top sellers and her favorites which is nice being from out of town!

Pizza
Nia A.

Came in to try their TikTok famous happy hour and I wasn't mad at it! Since I was in a town with a location I had to go. Got seated quickly and service was great. The Poke nachos were HUGE and delicious. My Brussel sprouts were also a good size portion and very tasty. My mom got the pepperoni pizza and said it was decent. We both also got two drinks each which were good. Overall I would definitely try Yard House again.

Pina spritz
Stan H.

Saw the pic of lobster shrimp noodles and wanted to try them. Before ordering this more Asian version, I tried to order the agnolotti which is a creamy Italian version of the same thing pretty much. They no longer offer this. The lobster and shrimp was fresh tasting but I felt the sauce was too salty. A respectable quantity but also reflected in the price. Very friendly staff. Clean and typically busy DC. Efficient servicing system. Open later here than other Yard Houses kinda near me.

Bar
Ray C.

Service was great. Isa did a great job checking on us and making sure we had anything we needed. All of our orders came out timely and tasted great. It was an exiting crowd combining America's 250th birthday and World Cup action on the telly. We really enjoyed our experience.

Midnight sangria (red wine + remy)
Donyiel C.

Good for big groups! Over the last few months I've been in for happy hour with at least 10 and they were able to easily accommodate us. The happy hour specials are good. Not many happy hours around these days so it's nice to see this place thriving! I recently had the midnight sangria (red wine + remy). I only had one! It was nice and strong! Select apps are 50% off. I tried the sliders - comes with 4 and a side of fries. Definitely a great deal. I couldn't even finish them all. Our two servers were great. I only remember Naimah's name, but thank you both for your great service. It's so easy to pay on the app with the split check!

Spicy Jambalaya with noddles
Kyla G.

The ahi tuna nachos my sister loved. My jambalaya was not tasty lacked seasoning sent back. Had the pepperoni pizza was good. Service was ok little slow. Place had a heavy wait time and didn't call to say it's your turn instead sent a text saying ur removed from the list.

Flight of beer
Taryn C.

I'm not going to lie, I've been to Yard Houses before but this one is the best one I've been to. They handled a busy waitlist amazingly with their text system and estimates being very accurate. They have a great upstairs area which was perfect for the evening. The bar was busy but rightfully so. The food was delicious and I loved the flight of beer that I had. They were local brews that tasted awesome! Would definitely recommend to anyone.

A lot of restaurants in downtown are pricey. This one is reasonable. Food has bigger portion and tasty. There is always a long wait.

We grabbed a seat and did not wait long for our food to come out. I really enjoyed my burger and scarfed it down! I paid for sauces, which were tiny and super overpriced. Hubs enjoyed his cheesesteak but he prefers meat. I had a bite and thought it was really flavorful and very closely tasting like the real thing. I noticed later this is a chain, which is pretty cool. I think the prices were pretty steep so I might skip on the fries next time. The food could have been warmer as well. Definitely worth a visit and will most likely be back when in DC again.

The tacos are…read morepeppered with spices and herbs, cheese, roasted veggies, and topped with zesty sauce that blend so well together and complement the flavors. Over the summer, there was a debut of a new Chicken taco! All the tacos are unique and tasty - Braised Mushroom with feta, Creamy Kale & Potatoes, Roasted Beets with ricotta, Roasted Eggplant, Skillet Corn and Cauliflower, Lemon Garlicky Greens, Smoky Collared Greens taco, Butternut Squash with goat cheese and caramelized onions. The only taco that I'm not a big fan of is the Scrambled Egg with Black Beans. It's very bland and the eggs are cold. The Mushroom Quesadilla that came out a couple of years ago is surprisingly filling oozing with cheese and hits the spot for only $6. The new Lunch combos is an okay deal. The Kale Salad had a spicy kick and I don't think it was worth paying an extra $7 for it when the Mushroom Quesadilla is only $6. The mild green sauce in the Black Bean Enchiladas has been replaced by the spicy red sauce. The spicy sauce is overpowering to enjoy the enchiladas and the green rice is often undercooked. There's a nice large tank of complimentary ice water instead of the faucet. The Hibiscus Tea is refreshing and sweetened with honey. The coconut Lime Aqua Fresca is refreshing as well and a nice summer mocktail. I've had the Blueberry Margharita Slushie at the Gtown location and really enjoyed it.

On the side, I added a Garlic Naan. We were looking for a quick meal. SpiceX delivered a good amount of flavor at fast food speeds. If you're looking for a sit-down experience, this location is at a bit of a disadvantage since all of these components are put into a plastic tray, everything is intermingling, and it looks like a mess. They only have plastic forks and knives (no spoons) which makes it hard to eat these saucy dishes. Lastly, since a lot of things are pre-made, they're not super hot and they don't adjust the spice level. My favorite thing about naan is it tastes like fresh bread from the oven, which you don't get here. Everything is very mild, and we normally get dishes mild to medium in heat level. If you can get past all that, I think all the flavors are pretty good and the price is very reasonable for the amount of food you get. If you're in this area, I think it is a worthy choice for a quick and affordable meal.

Options include salads, warm bowls and wraps, which you can choose from their list of creations, or craft your own. If creating your own, the full list of toppings wasn't super clear by just looking at the menu, so you basically just need to view the full selection once you get to the counter. I chose the SANTA FE salad ($10.49 + $3.49 for grilled chicken), a combination of avocado, corn, grape tomatoes, Pepper Jack cheese & crispy shallots atop romaine. When asked, I opted for a "regular" amount of dressing which was their sweet & smoky chipotle vinaigrette; it completely coated my salad. Others in my group asked for "light" dressing and thought it was enough. As my salad made it down the assembly line, I liked how they actually chopped it up while simultaneously mixing in the dressing and therefore thoroughly combined all the ingredients. Before topping the bowl with a lid, they will include a free piece of bread if you wish. I enjoyed my salad and the vinaigrette was very bold in flavor with a surprising spice... the heat grew with every bite! It indeed had a bit of sweetness as well to balance it out. They included a reasonable amount of chicken breast for the additional cost of $3.50. The pieces were tender, lean and of great quality. The romaine was fresh and I loved the crunch and added flavor from the fried shallots. Unfortunately, the bread was very dry, but given that it was free, I really have no complaints there. Overall, the portion size of my salad was fair as the bowl ran deep and it was filled to the top! It was truly a healthy, fulfilling lunch. Plus, they have great seating right outside with a view of the neighboring US Navy Memorial Plaza. Here's hoping Chopt will eventually make its way over to the Pacific Northwest!
