Review from Julie B.
I came to Yard House for a couple Big events Gulfstream was throwing. The place was packed both inside and outside on the patio.
The wait times were over an hour (2 hours) so I opted to find seating at the bar and eat there.
Me and my Man ordered the Seared Ahi Sashimi Tuna both times. The Ahi is seared rare, lightly blackened served with soy vinaigrette, wasabi and pickled ginger, was perfection both times!
He ordered the New York Steak Salad both times Its that good! It comes
field greens, roasted peppers, avocado, green beans, crispy potatoes, onion, tomato, fried pickled egg and Gorgonzola vinaigrette. The pickled egg was a nice surprise and the whole salad was very satisfying and tasty.
I ordered the Porcini crusted Halibut , Parmesan mashed potatoes with Porcini cream sauce, white truffle oil, asparagus and Bok Choy. Soo delicious I had steamed Veggies instead of the Mashed Potatoes and I was very happy! I also Tried the Seared Ahi Tuna Salad the last time I was at Yard House. The Ahi is seared Rare, Field Greens, Asian Slaw and Crispy Wontons tossed in Soy Vinaigrette. It really wasn't anything special and I thought there wasn't a huge portion of Tuna.
They naturally Have a Great Selection of Beer Here , but don't be surprised to not see any prices on the menu. I ordered a craft beer here and it was 12$ without me knowing.
Happy Hour is M-F 3-6PM and Wed-Sun 10PM till close
A Great Place to eat at Gulfstream I always enjoy the food, good service, and atmosphere.Comment from Kristi P. of Yard House 5/23/2012

Review from michael m.
Hallandale, FL
We waited about 25 minutes and when we didn't get called we went to check on where we were on the list and it turned out they forgot us. Fortunately they got us a seat a few minutes after that.
The place was completely packed; inside and outside.
We were very surprised with how good the food was, this is not bar-food like you would get at Friday's or other places that are known for having an extensive amount of beer. The food was gourmet food.
I had the Swordfish Tacos, my daughter had the steak tacos, we also ordered the spicy tuna roll (which is not a ROLL, in the sushi sense of the definition) and we also ordered a Filet.
All the food was very unique and extremely tasty. We received the appetizers fairly quickly but it did take a lot longer to get the meal, I'm not sure if it's because they were so busy that they forgot to check the kitchen, or if the kitchen was just very backed up.
We will definitely be going back since it's about a 3 minute drive from our condo.

Review from Talia G.
It is so weird when you go to a new place for the (gigantic!) variety of beer and end up having an amazing meal too! The Yardhouse is definitely known for their beer selection, but it also has an extensive menu. I went with a large group of friends and everybody's meal looked amazing: burgers were beautiful, seafood was fresh, orange peel chicken was spicy and savory, pasta was al dente.
I have a small weakness for grilled cheese sandwich, so I ventured to order theirs. OMG I was not disappointed. Amazing grilled cheese and delicious tomato bisque. BTW, number 2 on my list of favorite things to order here: mac and cheese!
The place is huge but still, it's always packed so try to make a reservation if you can. It can get a little loud, but the good service and excellent fare makes up for it.
And I'm happy to announce that the Yardhouse over at Mizner in Boca Raton is almost complete!Listed in: Grilled Cheese Hall of Fame

Review from Selena B.
Quincy, MA
After eating in South Beach for the last four months, I was refreshed to find this place where the prices were reasonable and the food was great!!!
I had the shrimp in vodka/tomato sauce with pasta - excellent. Not too rich and just perfect. I also added the soup for $3 more - and that was good too. All (three) of us enjoyed our meals and had plentiful portions. It came out in decent time despite the restaurant being PACKED. We sat outside which was quite nice too. We had the lettuce wraps and a couple other appetizers, all very good as well.
The ladies room was clean and empty - just the way I like it especially with a PACKED establishment!
Two thumbs up, when I'm out that way I will definitely go back!!!Comment from Kristi P. of Yard House 5/23/2012

Review from Julie F.
I went to the Yard House with my son Sunday afternoon expecting it to be busy, but luckily we were seated right away. My son order the Fish & Chips from the kids menu. The kids meal comes with a Kustom-Koolers, which is basically a soda with a flavored mix in. The fish was made fresh to order and according to my son, it is the best fish he ever had. He ate the whole thing. He later wished he had brought some home for dinner.
They have over a hundred beers to choose from. You can order a shorty, a pint, a goblet, a yard or a sample pack. I ordered a Black & Tan since I don't get too many chances to have one. Happy Hour is Monday to Friday 3PM to 6PM. ;)
They have a great menu. The only problem is deciding since there are so many good choices. Since we were here during lunch, I ordered from the lunch menu. I had the Blue Crab Cake Hoagie and the Spicy House Salad. I enjoyed both very much! The lunch menu is available daily from 11AM to 5PM.
Overall the atmosphere is very nice. We sat outside since it was a typical beautiful day in South Florida. One thing that is kinda cool about this restaurant, is that it is right next to the horse track and if it is season, you can see them show the horses before each race. There are also plenty of TVs to watch the races and other sports.
My son already asked if we can go back next weekend. :) -
Review from Lisa D.
I'm originally from California, where locations of Yard House are plentiful. Yes it's a chain restaurant, but the huge selection of beers and decently-priced food is always a winner. Even if you're not a traditional beer drinker, there is something you will like, and it's fun to try your friend or dates' selection.
This Yard House.....was awful.
Sure the decor and setup were fine, similar to any other Yard House I have ever been to. The location was convenient; at the shops at Gulfstream park. There is a public parking lot and the area is lively- lots of shoppers, diners, locals. There are outdoor seats and a very large dining room. They play California/Old Rock type of music. Full bar and pretty wide menu as well.
What sets this place apart is the awful service. At first glance you think great, it's a well-staffed establishment (it is quite large). After waiting ten minutes at the hostess stand without being greeted or helped, we decided to seat ourselves at the bar.
Usually when I sit at the bar the bartender is welcoming and friendly. Wish I could say that here. Not so. There were honestly about 10 bartenders clad in black behind the circular bar. It took our assigned server about 20 minutes to acknowledge that we were sitting there (just 2 people, not a huge group). My girlfriend and I were ready to order a few drinks and a meal, we were hungry and thirsty and eager to spend money. Our bartender could have cared less. She spent most of her time flirting with the two obnoxiously drunk guys sitting next to us (and continued to serve them when they had clearly been overserved which is a hospitality no-no). We had to ask for every. single. thing.
We asked for water, we asked for menus, we asked for napkins, we asked for silverware. We ordered beers, she came back 10 minutes later and asked for our beer choices a second time, we asked if we could order food and she gave us menus, then disappeared into the abyss or her smoke break for 20 minutes....in the meantime another bartender tried to help us but after the lack of service our appetite and thirst were still there, just not for this restaurant. We finally ordered food, received it and it was the wrong order altogether. (We had ordered a selection of street tacos which I had high hopes for, but they came out burnt and the wrong meat choices)
I wanted to like it, but I hated it, and at a $40pp average bill, it was insulting to be ignored while there was plenty of staff to go around. Apparently they coudln't be bothered to actually help a customer....I won't be back.Comment from Kristi P. of Yard House 3/28/2012

Review from Glenn G.
I think I expected too much. It's wasn't bad but it failed to wow me either.
I've wanted to try Yard House since reading the reviews (accidentally confused it with Yard Bird but that's another story) and looking over their website. It was a Friday night around 9:30-ish and it was a packed house. We were seated just before 10 pm and it was impressive how many people were still waiting for a table.
The restaurant is quite large. There is at least 20 outside tables and considerably more inside. The inside also has this huge oval bar that will serve food, so you can skip the table wait if you can find a seat. We decided on an outside table since the inside is a too dim for me.
The beer selection is huge (as it should be being named Yard House). The food menu was impressive with so many options. There must've been about 20 different appetizers alone. Dinners vary from burger & sandwiches to plated dishes like pot pie & jambalaya to steak & ribs to pizza and snack foods like deviled eggs & hummus. They have appetizer salads and entree salads and even went as far to include a "gardein" selection (basically it's make believe meats like tofu and soy).
I went with the avocado swiss burger. It was good, but not mind blowing. And it was smaller than expected too (the bun was too big for the patty). Fellow yelper Sergio F seemed to enjoy his BBQ bacon cheddar burger. Marisol F enjoyed the NY steak salad, which I enjoyed the left overs and would say it was probably the best dish on the table.
I don't know if I'd go out of my way (long drive to Hallandale) specifically for Yard House but if I happen to be back at The Village at Gulfstream Park then I would certainly come again.Listed in: Franchises & Chains, Late Night Dining, Burger Enthusiast

Review from Erika C.
As Monica M. stated, "I love Yard House." I don't like this location as much as I like the one at Merrick Park in Coral Gables, but that's no reason to knock off a star. Food & service are consistent. I have never 'not enjoyed' a meal here. I like this environment. Lends itself for a casual dinner or lunch break while shopping or a night out with friends.
I like this place a lot! -
Review from Esther W.
What a nice lunch with the girls I had today at Yardhouse. I had been here before, but they had not. Everything we ordered was delicious, and I was glad to not disappoint them with my selection. I think that by now they have figured out to trust the Yelper ; )
I really do need to expand my horizions when it comes to the menu, but I love the salad with the pear and walnuts so much. Ditto for the grilled cheese with tomato basil bisque. Our waitress, Liz, was so much fun and so nice, that we were ready to ask her to pull up a chair and hang out with us. After lunch we caught a horse race. I wish I could pick a horse as well as I pick a sandwich, but that was not to be. All in all, a very enjoyable day at Gulfstream. -
Review from Sergio F.
If I remember my intro psych class right, lasting change comes in small steps. That , and the fact I have vegetarian friends and a fairly open mind, is why I'm proud to say I had my first vegetarian dish at Yard House tonight. While I will confess that I did backslide into meat and also ordered a burger, my palate's curiosity was intrigued and pleased enough that at the very least a new section of the menu has been opened for me!
After an epic Yelp Elite event at Martini Bar upstairs, I joined Jacquelyn M and her sister at Yard House for a quick bite. I got in a little bit after them, seeing they had already places their order. What's this, I spy some BBQ chicken pizza! My eyes gave me away, as they asked me to take a slice. Curiosity was further piqued with her constantly asking how was it - I liked it - until I found out it was Gardein chicken substitute pizza. Done up with Marinara, the taste was deliciously similar to the meat one I'm accustomed to.
Around that time, and thanks to Yelp check-ins, we also ran into Glenn and Marisol, who told us they had a table outside. Besides fun conversation with very cool people, I enjoyed their skinny truffle fries with a sweet slightly syrupy BBQ sauce and (sowwwy) but backslid into their BBQ Bacon cheeseburger. It was just so habitually good, well done and with cheese over the top...But hey, small steps!
I will make a note of the service, as I see a couple other Yelpers commented. While at the table outside it was pleasant and prompt, with our waiter Carlos stopping by to check on us and quick with soda refills the service inside at the bar seemed a little rushed. I understand it was a Friday night, but the outside crew gets a bigger complement!
So good company, tasty food and expanding my palate? Overall a very fun evening!Listed in: MmmmMeaty

Review from Monica M.
I love Yard House.
I heard of it before I moved to California and when I found out I had one 15 minutes from home I was stoked. Visiting almost every weekend, I began to get accustom to it. When I moved back to Miami I was disappointed it was so far from home. But it's always a treat when I go.
After a fun night at the Yelp Elite event at Martini Bar, I had to make a pit stop at Yard House. It's only fair. Wait was 45 minutes, but The Boyfriend (Chris L.), Kevin G. and myself decided to sit outside and wait it out. 2 minutes later here came Alex asking us what we'd like to drink, queeeeeeee? Drinks while I sit and wait? Love! He even let us order food! While we drank and drank, our table was ready! Voila!
I ordered the Mac N' Cheese without the bacon. Man was it delish! But considering I rarely even ingest carbs I was full rather quickly and ended up taking the rest home. The Boyfriend ordered the Maui Chicken, like he always has, but said it didn't taste like it did in California. Kevin G. had an appetizer that involved teriyaki steak and brown rice, idk what it was, but it was GOOD!
I highly recommend the Lemon Suffle from Yard House, HIGHLY!!! Thank me later ;] -
Review from Christine P.
Miami, FL
I've been a fan of Yard House since the Coral Gables location opened. Hadn't visited the Hallandale locale until Super Bowl Sunday.
Stopped in here for lunch. Sat at the bar, ordered some beer, and lunch while waiting the Heat game.
This review is solely to rave about their mac and cheese. It has canadian bacon, chicken, and mushrooms. The lunch portion was the right spot - along with the Orange Blossom beer.
Service, beer and food were all great. Only downside is parking - especially if there's a race going on.Listed in: Mac & Cheese Tour

Review from Jacquelyn M.
Boynton Beach, FL
I have been meaning to try the Yard House for sometime. There is one located in Palm Beach Gardens, which is closer to me. However, I came here after an awesome Yelp Elite event the other night. Be aware if you come on a Friday night, this place is packed.
My sister and I arrived before the other Yelpers, and we found a place at the bar. We sat down, and ordered from the Gardein section of the menu. I ordered the bbq chik'n pizza, which is mozzarella, cilantro smoked gouda and bbq sauce (hold the onions for me). My sister got the "beef" sliders, which came with béarnaise, fries and pickles.
She requested to hold the béarnaise because she is vegan, and this is a mayonnaise product. Our food comes out within a decent time. My pizza was just as I ordered with no onions and very tasty. However, she received slices of cheese on her sliders. She had to return it, and say again, that she is vegan and no dairy products.
They took her food and remade it without any dairy. At some point, they ended up taking her water. Now she receives her food, but no drink. We had a hard time flagging the waitress/bartender down because the place was so busy.
Overall, the food is good. As a person that understands the vegetarian and vegan lifestyle, I can make my critique here. This restaurant takes Gardein products, which are vegan and makes all platters vegetarian. There is nothing wrong with this per say.
I feel like they could do so much more with these products. You can order it without the dairy products but then you end up with a plain meal. As a vegetarian and marketing professional, you really could expand your market base by creating more elaborate vegan meals with the Gardein products. That is just my opinion. -
Review from GINA H.
We had a great meal here. It was my yeldest yit's 15th birthday and its awful hard sometimes to find places that suit both his diet and his grandparents, who we were sharing I guess what we could call "Linner" with. Too late to call lunch, to early to call dinner. Its Sunday, we eat when we are all hungry. Needed something that had lots of vegetarian options since they have both just started exploring a vegetarian diet which my 15 yr old has been gradually adopting eating since he was 4.
I droped them at the corner and go park the car in the garage and by the time I'm in there they are already seated in a booth which I can only describe as the size of a NY studio apartment. It was huge, they gave it to them on account of his birthday. QUE LINDO!!!!!
The place was hopping!! Wow, you can sit home on Sunday and watch TV and be totally removed from the world, which is OK because sometimes we need to do that, or you can come to a place like Yard House with a bunch of friends and get your beer on and side eyeball whatever games they have playing on the TV and have a couple of beers and some food and have fun.
We ordered some beers (great beer selection by the way with daily specials), and some bites, like the Hummus with baked Pita and some Guacamole with Chips. OMG...the hummus was about the best I have ever had. I can't believe my son eat so much of it as he did? When did he even start eating hummus???? We were starting to feel full already.
For our main courses my picky vegetarian had the angel hair with eggplant, roma tomatoes, gorganzola, pine nuts, and basil. He totally loved it. I had me the Ahi Tuna Crunchy salad which was everything I expected it to be. The youngest yit had the pepperoni pizza and kindly offered a taste to everyone at the table. Such a gentleman. Grandparents had burgers....they were awesome looking and there were no complaints.
We shared a birthday dessert, the chocolate souffle which came on a great presentation plate with the word "birthday" dusted on it with chocolate dusting powder. I didn't have a taste...cos I'd pigged out enough on beers and picking fries offa everyone elses plate.
This place had a wait for outside dining but if we were happy enough to sit inside it was immediate. The service was great, though at the end it tapered off a little when we wanted to make a run for it and see if we could make the last race at the track and had to wait a bit for our server to come with the check. -
Review from Matt C.

I can't think of a better way to have lunch at a racetrack. Awesome street tacos, really really good beer selection.
If they just had the feed from the track on the screens, it would have been 5 star. -
Review from Kelly P.
Boca Raton, FL
YUM...
I don't think a "sports bar" gets any better, really. Food is all AMAZING and service is great as well! This is an upscale version of what you might be used to calling a sports bar/ pub, its more like the delicious version actually. My other half has been raving about this place and the truffle fries for months, so we finally made the trip down. I was very impressed and can't wait for the closer location to be built.
We had a great time, and so did our pups! -
Review from Jason G.
I haven't really had a bad meal here. It's not cheap but the combination between a St. Bernadus Abt 12 and the Chicken Mac & Cheese is pretty much what I want my last meal to be. Spinach and Art dip is a must have every time I go. I love this place and it's really the only reason I continue to visit Gulfstream. Be careful though, the wait is long so I would suggest you do call-ahead seating or expect to have anywhere between 45 min - 1 1/2 hour wait for a table.

Review from Tara A.
Plantation, FL
The entire area in Gulfstream has been completely revamped over the last couple years. It now hosts 2 casinos and lots of great restaurants and shopping. We've been to a couple other restaurants in the center and always noticed The Yardhouse being packed... Now we know why - this place is awesome!
With 112 beers to choose from and a great drink menu, Yardhouse was a great evening. We had to wait almost an hour for a table, but went at peak time - around 7:30. We also wanted to sit outside which was a longer wait. Must say, it was well worth it. We perched at the bar, watched the Heat game and it went by quickly.
We decided on the Lobster, Crab and Artichoke dip for an app. I had the Shrimp Rice Bowl for dinner and Andy had Lettuce Wraps and Calamari. Everything was great! It was great portion size and were even able to take home lunch for the next day. Everything was priced right, including the drinks. The menu was so crazy big it was so hard to decide on what to eat. We were excited to have tried this place. -
Review from Taylor A.
A massive beer list that accompanies a large and extensive menu always makes me happy. Combine this with an indoor vibe of a comfortable, classy bar and you have a great place for a meal or a drink.
My girlfriend's burger was huge and delicious and I really enjoyed my sushi selection. What? I got sushi and my gf got a burger? Hmmm, who wears the pants in this relationship? Anyway...
Our server was fast and attentive and gave great suggestions on beer.
I live in Atlanta and I'm pumped there is one coming into Atlantic Station. -
Review from Tianiee S.
Hollywood, FL
My friend had bday dinner here and boy was it hard to locate this place. I was 15 mins late, but the point is I made it there.
We had a 7:30 dinner reservation and this place was packed all night. First things first, Yard House is for beer lovers. And for the record I just like beer.
For starters I tried their deviled eggs and eh, it was definitely different, but I didn't like them. They lacked flavor and the tomato sauce was not helping.
For dinner I ordered their Southern friend chicken with spinach mashed potatoes. The spinach mashed potatoes were great. Now the chicken breast seemed to have been friend too long as the breading seemed burnt and it lacked flavor as well. I didn't enjoy my meal and left most of it on the plate. I ordered a mint julep and it wasn't that great either.
Now, for the service. Yes we were seated promptly, but that's the only positive thing. The servers (two) spent most of the time away from the table and we had to be on the look out for them. They avoided one side of the table (my side) and some of us had to walk around to the other side to place our order. When the food was coming out, they walked around whispering "who ordered this... or that." A couple of the dinner party had to shout out the orders to get the food to the right person.
Lastly, when it came time for the bill, my friend and I got our bill 30 mins later than everyone else and that's b/c we had to ask for it. They completely forgot us as they did all night. Not sure if i will be back here, there wasn't much I enjoyed. -
Review from Frank Z.

Awesome beer selection, the burger was perfect. Ordered a hotdog for my son and he loved it. Get the onion rings instead of fries, they might be sprinkled with crack.. staff was great Megan our waitress was really nice. Looking forward to coming back.

Review from Lauren S.
Fullerton, CA
I'm a regular at Yard House in Brea, California but I'm visiting Florida and met up with a friend from Montreal, Canada who had heard about the amazing selection of beers at Yard House... so we went!
We had already eaten dinner but wanted to hang out and chat over dessert and beers.
I ordered the Brownie topped with vanilla ice cream and he ordered the mini creme brulee with the 6 beer sampler.
I should also take a moment to mention that we had an awesome server named Corey [girl] who gave my friend the run down of the restaurant, explained the beers, made some awesome recommendations and brought the beer sampler to life. My friend was totally sold on the sampler from my own urgings but Corey really drove it home.
My friend wasn't fond of 1/6 beers but found a new favorite in 2/6 and an old love in 1/6 - pretty good scoring for a sampler! It's Six 5 oz. glasses.
The brownie was amazing - how could it not be?
The creme brulee was good - a definite 8/10.
Even though our order was small (2 desserts and a sampler) Corey took great care of us from 10pm through Midnight.
I think I've turned my friend into a true Yard House frequenter.. I bet he's wishing he had one in Montreal! -
Review from Dfridm D.
Plantation, FL
Service is great, food is mediocre, cost is ridiculous, beer selection is fantastic. I'm not going back here unless it's happy hour. I've went twice with my wife and it's always more then $80 when I include tip. She doesn't drink beer and I usually only have 2, and never order dessert. I would understand paying that for an extravagant dish but that isn't the case here. The food is OK but if their beer selection wasn't here I would never come back. They should turn this place into a pizza and beer place. It's the only thing worth going for.

Review from Patty W.
While we were discovering the unknown Village of Gulfstream Park, we hit up the Yard House after celebrating at an elite event at the Martini Bar with some friends that we haven't seen in forever. We were seated within 10 minutes and received quick service. We had to recover our hangovers with some good food and the menu was screaming my name. The choice was hard, but I settled for the parmesan crusted chicken topped with a tomato and mushroom sauce along with a side of mashed potatoes. I am not a fan of mushrooms, but I couldn't even taste them. I didn't realize how hungry I was until I saw there was no more on my plate. I even got a couple onion rings from Chris's tower. Those were awesome as well.

Review from Thais A.
Yard House has easily become my favorite go-to ale house "type" of bar.
The food is phenomenal!
Onion ring tower is a must try appetizer for everyone. It's ascetically appealing and delicious. However, the two ranch- type dips that are served with the tower are not as good as you would expect them to be. Lobster, Crab & Artichoke Dip is yummy, too!!!
maine lobster, blue crab, artichoke hearts, four cheese blend served with chips and baked pita--- You gotta try it! Leave room for the truffle fries. They're the best truffle fries i've ever had, ever!
Last time I was here I had the NY Steak Sandwich served with roasted roma tomatoes, melted swiss cheese, fried onions, garlic aioli and sweet potato fries. Incredible! the steak was juicy and tender, left me licking my fingers! My friend ordered the NY Steak Salad, which was also delicious and I'm definitely trying this next time but i'll be sure to have them take out the pickled eggs, so gross.
Also, don't forget your ID when you come here. They're so strict with ID's, refused to serve me and when I tried a sip of my friends cocktail the waitress kindly told me that if the manager saw he would have to kick us out. Seriously!?
Yes-- seriously! -
Review from Mazel T.
West Palm Beach, FL
This is a great Yard House. The atmosphere and service are much better than at the Palm Beach Gardens location. Our server here made great suggestions and was very friendly. He was perfect.
The new tacos are fantastic, try the whitefish or Korean beef. Also, the organic tomato basil bisque is wonderful. We will definitely be returning to this Yard House! -
Review from Mike U.
I fell in love the day this placed openned and as soon as I walked in and saw the huge tap selection at the Coral Gables location. But am I glad that this one is at Gulfstream is open also. A little closer to home, but a smaller location, but it will definitely do!
For the beer lovers, the selection is great and if you can't make up your mind you can have a sampler...If you end up liking one of the sampler's beers you can order a pint of half-yard of it or resort back to an old favorite.
Food is always good at the Yardhouse. I have not tried one thing that I haven't liked. Food is amazingly good! Yummy yum yum in my tum for Yardhouse food! -
Review from Abbers M.
Miami, FL
I really never waste time reviewing chains but what can I say-I LOVE BEER! I wish I could write that even bigger! My love is bigger then 12 point font.
Happy hour is good, great beer selection, food hasn't disappointed either. I would mostly stick to happy hour, because although I truly love beer, I love to keep my hard earned monies too. You will keep a lot of it where it should be if you go Monday-Friday 3-6 or Sunday-Wednesday 10-Close. -
Review from Tania H.
Awesome place for beer lovers! Very spacious and definitely can see how it gets very busy during the racing season.... I didn't even see it when I went to the races last winter.
A very wide variety of dishes and tastes are offered; from sushi and asian fusion to american traditional game day foods (heightened a bit) to pasta & italian fare as well.
There are TV's everywhere and a very large outside patio that is covered with TV's as well. Definitely a place to go for games & will be going again once racing season opens. -
Review from Iris B.
so soo many beers to choose from all over the world! can you say beer heaven?!? my favorite is still the Belgian Shandy... a pear cider and Belgium white concoction... so crisp & light...simply divine! the milk stout was good but a bit tart & heavy for me.
The food is good too... the artichoke crisp is a very delish appetizer, as is the tuna and avocado which was larger than expected for an appetizer and could be a main course for many. the truffle fries are also yummy but if you eat too many you get the overpowering truffle oil in the back of your throat for the rest of the night, but they are worth it!
this place is large with plenty of outdoor seating and a cool large wrap-around indoor bar with large copper pipes feeding into other tubes to the many yummy beers on tap. the staff is super friendly and informative too.
great place. highly recommend it. -

Review from David C.
Service has been really bad. Lunch takes way to long, no longer a fan. Food is still better than most and the beers are excellent.

Review from Melanie L.
Miami, FL
We have dined here a few times before and the food was always just so-so. Nothing to brag about at all.
Then the day after my 21st Birthday we went there for drinks and they said that they could not accept my I.D because it was expired by one day. I literally laughed out loud and asked to speak to a manager. I literally have drank here 3+ times without even getting asked for I.D and then the one time that I do they say no because it is expired ...by ONE day?
The manager said that they could not serve me. I did not get my new I.D in the mail yet so it was really frustrating. We just went down the street and drank somewhere else. I actually asked police who were outside what my options were and they said to just simply go somewhere else. Which obviously led me to believe that it was not a big deal that my I.D was expired by ONE day.
Will not be returning here again. Service was very rude. -
Review from Sandy W.

Great place for casual dining. I go there at least twice a month and I've never had a bad meal. They have good salads and small eats like sliders and marinade pork tacos. Sandy knows Miami. For all your real estate needs along the beach it's http://www.sandyontheb...

Review from Melody M.
Boynton Beach, FL
I went here last week with my sister after a Yelp party. They have a great atmosphere and a great menu. There are some things I would like to see change there though. Fist of all, they have a section on the menu for Gardein which is a vegan "meat." I was excited about this. Let me just say that this is not a vegan/vegetarian restaurant as they do also serve steak. The thing is the Gardein was not being utilized properly. They had it as a topping on a cheese pizza made with actual dairy cheese. They also had it in pasta with cream sauces, etc. I decided to order the Gardein sliders and they brought them to me as cheese burgers which had I not checked first I would have bit into. I think they have the right idea to offer it but the staff doesn't know what to do with it and I would like to see them come up with creative uses for it as a vegan dish and not just as vegetarian (which for those that don't know the difference means that vegetarian food still uses dairy and egg product even though there is no flesh). Next on my agenda is to try the one up in my neck of the woods which would be Palm Beach.

Review from Catalina D.

It's a shame that I never have the capacity of going to another one of the wonderful restaurants at Gulfstream because I am always in the mood for Yard House. Haha. Their selection of food and beer is huge, and I know that I will leave 100% satisfied everytime.

Review from Daniel O.
Miami, FL
Ordered a Hawaiian Burger! Which was very good. Came with this Aloha Sauce which I put on everything! My side was french fries, that came with olive oil, parsley, and parmesan cheese. Which would of been VERY good if they were fresh. When the food got to the table it tasted like it was sitting under a heat lamp for about 5 minutes. That's why I gave this rating a 4 out of 5. For a restaurant with such a good reputation, I don't think that the food should of been served like that.
This visit will not stop me from going again.
This was my second visit, the first was at the location in Coral Gables where I ordered the (Mac n Cheese)2 dish which was BOMB!!
Yard house is a must try and is reasonably priced for what it was. -
Review from Lucy W.
Pembroke Pines, FL
I thought I wrote this review already. I went back in May for my friend's bday. Beers/drinks were good. Wide variety. I will also tell you what is good about it because if it wasn't for the below average pasta that we ordered (esp for the price) I would have given this 4 stars, BUT like all restaurants there are certain things you just won't like or are as "signature"/good as other items.
The pasta was definitely lacking. The spicy jambalaya. I liked MiMi's Cafe one better, and my bf ordered vodka shrimp pasta that tasted like not good Mac & Cheese except it wasn't $2. It was okay pasta but I've had better at CheeseCake Factory (pasta overall) and it was cold. Tasted like it sat underneath a heat lamp which is what happens when you go and it's busy because it's a weekend and the 2011 Play Offs were on.
What I did like. My clam chowder was really good. The white colored kind. My boyfriend liked his French onion which personally I just don't care for that soup in general. I tried some of my friend's organic tomato bisque soup. Tastes like tomato, not much wow factor but I REALLY liked my clam chowder.
Fries fried in truffle oil. Very good, very greasy, cut thin so it was crunchy just the way I like it. The other appetizer was the lobster crab artichoke dip. It wasn't bad but I really don't know what kinda lobster you can put in it (obviously not a lot) and probably imitation for $13? The crab was definitely fakey/imitation BUT it didn't taste bad. I guess it pretty much goes both ways... WHAT DO YOU EXPECT for $13? I dunno but imitation stuff is not worth $13, then again you'd have to kill, chop up and cook your own lobster for about $10.
Desserts were good. Most of them and I think I had most of them. I liked the mini creme brulee the most. Mini peach cobbler, brownie and kona coffee ice cream sundaes were all good desserts. I'd definitely go back just to eat dessert but probably not because I don't want to wait in line on a Saturday night. -
Review from Brian L.
15 words or less: Promising menu that way under-delivers. But great outdoor seating to watch the horses.
15 words or more: I have tried this place three times. Each time I read the menu, I like what I read. It has a ton of options and seems creative. But each time, the food just does not deliver. The reasons are different every time. But generally, I did not find the food fresh or flavorful.
I will say there is a ton of outdoor seating, which is covered and has fan/misters available. This outdoor seating is great if go during horse racing season, and can watch the horses parade by before their race. It is a great spectacle for the kids and adults.Comment from Kristi P. of Yard House 4/12/2011
