Great food great service consistently!! We came June 14, 2025. I was so hungry. We ordered the shrimp appetizer, kids pizza, and the chopped salad. The shrimp comes on top of rice that is fried. It is sooooo good. Think Thai bang bang Shrimp. The salad was huge and as usual I needed to take some home. I added blacked chicken to it for the protein. DELICIOUS!! The kids pizza was demolished! 😂😂🤣. Good stuff! Our server was Jess and she is the best. Very friendly and extremely helpful. We always come back, but I don’t always remember to take pictures!!! 😂😂🤣

I’ve been here a few times now, and it’s never disappointed in all honesty. The staff are always upbeat and welcoming, very interpersonal and make you feel homely. The food is amazing and consistent. I’ve tried the burgers, the fries and wings, their steak as well and all have been amazing. They make amazing drinks and from the few times I’ve been there it’s always buzzing. Great place to meet up w friends for dinner and drinks. Great to watch sports and great just to treat yourself to dinner

Our family came here on Saturday night. This place is very crowded. We were on the waiting list and waited for more than 1 hour to have a table. The food is quite delicious and the cooking time is very fast. Our family loves the appetizers here. Friendly and fast service. Next time I will come on weekdays to enjoy the restaurant food

visited Yard House on a Tuesday night, and despite it being packed, the ambiance was great—lively but not overwhelming. The food itself was decent, typical American fare with generous portions. The highlight for me was their piña colada—easily one of the best I’ve had. I also really enjoyed the sweet potato fries, and the steak was cooked well, juicy, and flavorful. Overall, it’s a nice spot to dine, especially if you’re looking for a vibrant atmosphere and large servings.

Wasn’t a good experince. Will not be going back. The fries were not salted The waiter forgot our silverware/napkins Took 45 min for food to come out There is a stark absence of flavor in their dry burgers Stale Chips, and microwaved queso was overpriced and not worth the 20 minute wait on an appetizer

We were so excited to visit the Yard House in Gaithersburg for the very first time! Back when we lived in California, my husband and I used to dine at Yard House regularly — it was one of our favorite spots. We honestly had no idea there were locations in Maryland and Virginia, so discovering this one felt like such a wonderful surprise. It’s been 13 years since our last visit, and this time, we weren’t just a couple in love — we were a family. Sharing that familiar taste and atmosphere with our kids brought back so many beautiful memories. They loved it just as much as we did. The food was fantastic, the vibe was just like we remembered, and the service was excellent. Thank you, Yard House, for making us feel right at home again — this time with our little ones by our side. We’ll definitely be back! #YardHouse #FamilyMemories #FirstVisitAgain #GaithersburgEats #FromCaliforniaToMaryland #LoveAndFood #FamilyDining #TasteOfThePast #HeartwarmingExperience #FiveStarReview

I visited with my work colleagues for lunch and the food was excellent, and there was plenty of seating available during a weekday lunch. However, the service could have been more attentive, as we experienced some delays with requests.

Cool place with lots of rotating beers. They also have a nice happy hour and late night menu. Service was great from all the staff. I had no complaints on the food as it all came out fresh and presentation was also good.

This place has the best Happy Hours! So many selections of appetizers at half-price with generous portions and almost everything tasted super yummy. Our favorite was the Tuna Nachos, Sliders with fries, Brussel Sprouts and Flat bread pizza. Drinks are also very refreshing & smooth. Seating by the lake side was nice but a bit too hot this summer, I would really rather sitting inside but you also have to deal with the super loud music. The place is jammed packed even during weekdays, definitely a long wait on weekends. I would highly recommend Yard House if you never been there, you might be hooked just like us!

4 Stars My Go-To Spot! Yard House is one of my favorite places, especially for Happy Hour. My go-to is always the classic sliders you really can't go wrong with them. Perfectly cooked, flavorful, and just the right size. The fries are a classic side that never disappoints. One dish I surprisingly fell in love with is the garlic shiitake mushroom noodles. I tried it on a whim and it quickly became one of my favorites. I usually customize it by adding veggies or meat to make it a more complete meal highly recommend doing that! As for drinks, I'm all about a good dirty martini, and the bartenders here nail it every time. Big shoutout to John behind the bar he always serves me with a smile and knows I like my martinis with blue cheese-stuffed olives. It's the little things like that that make this place feel like my spot. Great food, great drinks, and even better vibes. Whether I'm coming in solo or grabbing drinks with friends, Yard House never lets me down!

I have always been a fan of The Rio. It's always been worth the drive from Southern Maryland. Today was no different. E'rything went well for our monthly siblings lunch today. We had a GREAT server (Thanks, Donovan for your uber professional service!). As you see in the pics, this Yard House location is modern and clean. I love their huge bar and expansive beer taps. It's like an upscale brewery. The burgers (bbq/bacon, truffle cheese and blue cheese/bacon) were all awesome. We actually have no complaints about the wings, beers, Tito's and Jameson shots, or the salads. I wasn't a fan of the onion rings - they could have been a lil crispier; the spinach dip was a lil bland and the calamari was overdone. NOT a deal breaker tho' ... their menu is HUGE so there's plenty of other options for next time. Yard House is not fancy but it is hip and trendy and decent and impressive enough for a birthday dinner, date night, promotion celebration, etc. When you go, tell them you saw it on Yelp!

How did I never realize just how popular this place is?! It was packed to the brim, but still no wait time! I love how you can order and pay on the little screen, making it super convenient especially since the waiters must be super busy. It took a while to get plates and utensils, but don't let that stop you, food comes out fast! Drinks a bit slower... I came here for happy hour and it has become my favorite place. Their poke nachos are sooo good. Its a perfect balance to the other heavy appetizers. I loved their lemon pepper wings, but wish they had a bit more seasoning. Boneless wings were super juicy and a bit more flavorful than their classic wings, even though we got the same flavors. Miguels queso dip was a bit too heavy for me and wish they had more chips instead of tortillas. Their pizzas are delicious as well, the buffalo chicken is a bit too breaded but still great, and omg their mushroom one is the best- bit creamy with mushroom flavor shining through. Coco passion was definitely coconutty and tropical, which I personally love, and the malibu peach tasted very concentrated and one dimensional. Anyways love yardhouse, and a walk around the lake or target afterwards will be the perfect end to your evening.

Yard House was one of the first restaurants I tried after moving to the area, and it quickly became a go-to spot. It's always packed--and for good reason. The energy is vibrant, the service is top-tier, and the food never disappoints. I highly recommend making a reservation, especially on busy nights. Their menu has something for everyone, and the drinks are absolutely next-level. I usually order the Caesar salad, wings, and fries (always a hit), but the lobster pasta is another standout--flavorful, generous with the lobster, and well-priced. We've consistently had wonderful servers who are kind, attentive, and personable, even during peak hours. We always leave happy--and tipping extra generously!

Yard House has been the greatest find as a vegan with a 1 year old. The menu is amazing, the staff is so accommodating to my baby, and my husband and I have yet to have a less than 5-star experience here. Our favorite time to go to Yard House is on Sunday mornings at 11am. The manager on duty is so unbelievably kind to my daughter. I hope she is appropriately recognized for going above and beyond in making the guests feel welcomed and attended to. My daughter sits in a highchair, and the manager moved out a piece on the floor of the table to help make sure my daughter was as close as possible to the table and had an easier time reaching her food. She also offered to bring avocado slices or a little snack from the kitchen for my daughter to enjoy. She was so attentive to our family. I usually feel nervous bringing my daughter to a business and this manager made us feel welcome to come back again and again. I thank her kindness and hospitality so much! All the employees in general are so kind to my daughter and have made it clear Yard House is a family friendly business. My husband and I cannot believe how vegan friendly the menu is! We also love that they have a touchscreen menu at each table which has an option to only highlight vegan items. We use that to when making our orders to ensure we do not forget to ask for a sauce to not be included and get everything right. Our favorite thing to order is the Gardein wings with buffalo sauce and no ranch. The sauce is spicy, the portion size is great, and the wings are cooked perfectly! We also get an order of fries on the side which we share with my daughter. The newest vegan item that we tried are Gardein nachos with vegan cheese! These nachos are FANTASTIC! They are so flavorful, the portion size is more than enough to share between 2 people, and the cheese melts perfectly. This item is not on the vegan menu and the Chef was happy to custom make this item for us. We are so happy to have a family tradition of visiting Yard House on Sundays. It is the perfect treat after climbing at Sportrock and the whole family has a great time.

Steak bowl, chips & queso, and cheese curds were delicious and expertly crafted. Our server Marlin was awesome and kind and helped my friend get a rush on his pizza for carry out so he didnt get stuck in traffic. Thankful for her service. Will return.

First off the service was impeccable. I apologize for not remembering our servers name but he stayed on top of everything despite it being quite busy. Always made sure our drinks were refilled and refreshing as well. Now the food was something else to me because I see this place only has a 3.5 rating. We ordered bone in wings as an app and my mom ordered the salad and both were amazing. The wings were breaded, fried, and sauce to perfection (we ordered the Thai chili garlic and buffalo wings) and the salad dressing was light and strong and very much complimented the greens. Our entree's obviously did not disappoint either. I got the whiskey glaze burger was cooked exactly to my liking and my mother heavily enjoyed the red sauced penne. Overall we had an amazing time and were stunned by the food. Wish it has more stars!

I would say if you're going to hang out with friends or watch a game, this is a great spot. Lots of space. Plenty of room to socialize. However the food? It's your average if not below average bar food. Service is always great though!

I visited here last night for a quick dinner . And must I say the dinner was good . I had the jambalaya and oh my was it delicious . I had to force myself not to eat the whole thing so I could have some for lunch the next day . It was busy in there but I managed to find seating at the bar. I will be coming back

Yard House is always consistent and always good environment...has a huge wrap around bar with plenty of seating and TVs. The menu is a little bit like a Cheesecake Factory menu so come with any appetite there's something available for you. A beer list a mile long so bring your picky friends to find something they will like...

The service was efficient, came during lunch hour so it was not packed yet but when it was time to leave the restaurant was quite busy. I had the steak bowl and it was somewhat greasy, not sure if it was from the fried sesame rice but they could have used less oil in my opinion. I also got Med rare and it was cooked to order and indeed was what I asked for. Overall a chill Saturday but I heard it does get quite busy in the evenings, good luck with finding parking! Good thing there is a additional parking at the garage passing Uncle Julio's.

Long story short: Give Timothy a RAISE! Went here the day before Mothers Day. It was so busy. Wait was close to an hour but worth it. Even with the place being extremely busy, Timothy was personable and accommodating. From wiping our chairs out, not forgetting anything we asked, and providing top tier service, me and my family were super happy. Sometimes when places are busy, the service or food are lackluster. Both were amazing. Would 100% come back. Ordered the calamari, chicken nachos, and bbq bacon burger. Family had jambalaya and the whiskey salmon.

Great Happy hour from 3:30 to 6 Monday-Friday. Half of select apps and all pizzas. $2 off beer, wine, spirits and cocktails. Good selection of local beers on tap. Great poke nachos. Had the poke salad which was light but satisfying.

OK so I've seen the mixed reviews and I have to say that while the food isn't 10 x 10 our server was five stars plus. NAN was absolutely outstanding and made the evenings experience fantastic. He was great on the suggestions for appetizers and dinner and even remembered to suggest a big rock with my Bourbon. The place is super crowded on Fridays, but if you use the web and get in line, it works great. It told us 45 to 55 minutes and it was spot on. We had the steak bowl and the jambalaya with Jasmine rice... Both excellent choices. The beer selection is outstanding. And will add this to our Friday night list.

Check in was a breeze since I joined the waiting line via the website I started off with a refreshing Moscow mule that really hit the spot after taking the kids to the playground and the carousel. Next up was an onion ring tower. Respectfully, that was punished while watching the Baltimore Orioles punishing the Philly Phillies 8-3. I, next, indulged in a Cali World Stack, which was crispy crab, avocado, cucumber California sushi roll, The glaze that it came with was a bit sweet. Sesame Crusted Ahi tuna was a seared tuna roll with broccoli and sticky rice. All of the seafood was fresh and yummy. The service was great and all of the food came out quickly and timely

Went to yard house since it's in walking distance from where I live and I was pretty satisfied! In my opinion the best food/drinks for a sports style bar! We tried the firecracker shrimp as an appetizer & it was delicious! The crispy rice really made it a 10/10. We also tried the chicken tenders and sweet potato pancakes. Which I was skeptical about at first but the pancakes had more of a cinnamon taste that was pretty good! They fell apart a tiny bit but thats just the nature of a potato pancake. Overall will definitely go back to enjoy drinks & watch our big sporting events!

It's worth going for happy hour, but other than that I would probably go somewhere else. The food is average and the menu offers a wide variety of dishes to choose from. The restaurant can get crowded pretty quick so you may have to wait sometimes to be seated. The dish I would recommend is the whisky aged white cheddar hamburger.

We had great food and excellent service from our waitress. Our meals were well prepared we enjoyed them both. Apps were great as were drinks. The reason for the 4 vs 5 stars is when we checked in no one asked whether we would eat outside or inside. It was 100 degrees outside. We are old no we are not going to eat outside or in the area with just fans. When our table was ready the unfriendly host took us to the area with the fans, we said no thank you. Clearly the hostess was annoyed and walked back with an annoyance. We were only two people we were willing to wait no problem. To be treated like we did something wrong when we did not is something that host needs to work on. First world problems but yelp is here for us to express our frustration. Everyone else at the hostess stand was great. The person who took us to our table maybe was just having a bad day or they should not be working as a hostess.

I will still rave about how good of a deal the Yard House Happy Hour menu is. I went again with my parents and got the tuna poke nachos, blackened ahi, margarita pizza, margarita, soup and two ice teas and our total was less than $30 (before tip). I had a coupon that Yard House sent me for signing up for their free rewards program that gave me one free app. It was busy yesterday but our server still did a great job and making sure everything came out great and everything was good. Very much recommend. Parking at this location can be tricky to get a spot since they fill up quick.

Yummy yummy food that's made even more yummylicious by the generous 1/2 priced apps Happy Hour deal from 3 -6 pm every Mon - Fri. Perfect for an afternoon hunger craving or just an early dinner. Service is great, and the atmosphere is hoppy (a reference to hops, a key ingredient to make beer, in case you didn't know ). Time to roll up those sleeves and nom nom nom!

This place is great for group gatherings as it's very spacious with large table settings and booths throughout. They have an outdoor patio, fire pit and ample tvs for sports enthusiasts. The happy hour is available anywhere in the venue (not just the bar). The portion sizes are great even on happy hour. The jambalaya is flavorful and you can swap the rice for cauliflower. The Mediterranean salmon needs a sauce but is cooked well with a hearty portion of kale/quinoa. The whiskey maple salmon is sweet with the whiskey aftertaste which works for me but way a bit strong for some. The Brussels are crisp and tasty, just a touch of spice. The sliders get the job done but the upgrade to sweet potato fries wasn't a good move. The sweet potato fries were soggy. Overall a good experience with enough options to explore to find your preferred selections.

I have only gone for Happy Hour and ordered most of the items on the Happy Hour Menu. Food was great with a variety of options. Big fan of the Mahi Mahi Nachos. Some drinks are also included in this pricing. Great spot to watch a game, hang out or catch up with friends. Kinda on the loud side so do not recommend a date here. Large seating areas, both inside and outside. Staff was very friendly and responsive. Worth it if you are in the area!

Showed up and asked to be seated in view of a game that was going on. They seated me somewhere else and told me the server could change the tv for me. I told the server and the tv didn't change for like 20 minutes. It finally did change and the game was on for about 10 minutes before it was switched to something random. Ended up just paying my bill on the electric thing and walking out. Wish I didn't go.

Very busy and limited parking so you can try to park at the dicks lot or the one across from the hotel then walk over. HH deals are very good and big portions but you get what you pay for. Low prices = low quality. Dont get the cheese curd they were not even warm. You can look at my picture and tell theyre unappetizing. Buffalo chicken pizza was all bread. The calamari was decent wont complain there. The chicken tender and nachos were good. If you like sour beers the hilly billy sour will make you pucker if they still carry it when you go. Easy to order with the digital machine. No need to wait on servers. Easy to split bill too.

Great service, delicious food. I and my friends get together during happy hours on Monday evening, super packed!!

Service was super fast and friendly. Will come back for game day!

Ordered a bunch of dishes for takeout and overall the food was okay with nothing being a standout item. We ordered the spicy jambalaya, chicken wings, truffle burger, sliders, fried calamari, seared ahi tuna, vampire taco, and the korean beef taco. The best items were the spicy jambalaya and the chicken wings, and my least favorite items were the tacos. Both the tacos were drenched in so much sauce and the vampire taco was really salty. I ate 1/4 of the truffle burger and felt like that portion was enough - it was good, but probably the greasiest and heaviest burger I've ever eaten. Service was polite, they actually called me twice to let us know our order was ready and to make sure we came to pick it up. Even though we had a to-go order, the ambiance inside the restaurant looked nice and the parking lot was packed with diners even during a winter storm!

Yard house is always a great time! The cocktail list is extensive with something for everyone. The lavender drop is so pretty and so delicious. The poke nachos tasted great and was definitely a crowd pleaser. Our party god the turkey club, which was good but had a lot of bread in it which fills you up fast. The pineapple chicken portion was big and it is my friend's favorite dish at Yard House. I got the grilled chicken which had Swiss and avocado on it, it definitely hit the spot. The bar here is large and wraps around. There is patio seating outside overlooking the water, and they have booths and a dining area as well. We will be back!

Dani is always a great waitress to have. She's been my server since yard house opened and she remembers her regular. Thank you for the great service and great time. I'm subtracting one star just because a server with the tag "Raul" was bussing the table next to us and set the dirty plates on our tables to stack. Just said "sorry" and walked away. Not only was this disrespectful but very unsanitary. Again. Thank you to Dani for great service. Love you always

Thursday 4/25/2024 I've known about yard house for a while but never made a visit until today. They have a dine-in only happy hour from 3-6 pm during Monday through Friday and that's exactly when I went. The spot has cool vibes & ambiance that reminds me of sports bar type of vibe or a friends night out vibe. For my first visit, we got plenty of their happy hour items and some of their popular reviewed items: - HH BONELESS WINGS (1/2 Korean & 1/2 whiskey) $6.99 * rating: 5.5/10 for Korean & 6.9/10 for whiskey, the whiskey is the best flavor of all flavors that I had but the chicken is just alright. - HH CLASSIC SLIDERS $6.74 * rating: 4/10, didn't like them at all - HH FRIED CHICKEN TENDERS $6.74 * rating: 5/10, the chicken is okay but the fries need seasoning - HH BBQ CHICEKN PIZZA $8.25 * rating: 7.6/10, thin pizza but it's pretty solid - TRADITIONAL WINGS (1/2 bbq & 1/2 lemon pepper) $15 * rating: 6/10 for bbq & 2.8/10 for lemon pepper, the lemon pepper wings were BAD and they didn't even taste like lemon pepper at all - MAUI PINEAPPLE CHICKEN $22 * rating: 7/10, decent dish but it's nothing special - JAMBALAYA (PASTA) $21 * rating: 7.7/10, surprised to say that this was probably my favorite dish and it's definitely something I'd get again. - BREAD PUDDING $10 * rating: 6.8/10, I've had plenty of bread pudding better but it's not bad. - OREO BROOKIE $10 * rating: 6.7/10, it was decent but I wouldn't get it again. All in all, the food ranges from decent to below average (especially their happy hour items) but the food experience was mid. I'd say this spot is more known for its ambiance and vibes rather than its food.

I recently ordered food to-go via curbside from the Gaithersburg location and there were a number of things that went HORRIBLY wrong, but I was very pleased with how management handled the situation. I ordered the the taco combo and chose the vampire taco, Baja fish taco and Korean beef taco. I was excited to try all three but especially the vampire taco because it comes with a cheese-crusted tortilla, carnitas, bacon, garlic, crushed avocado, salsa roja, sour cream and cilantro. I didn't go far after receiving my order and chose to dine while charging my vehicle at the nearby EV supercharger. As soon as I opened the container, I noticed all three tacos had plain flour tortillas and no cheese-crusted tortilla was in sight. I immediately called the restaurant back and spoke to the manager on duty that offered to give me a partial refund that I appreciated and accepted...not that big of a deal. Next, I decided that I would try my Baja fish taco first and took a big bite only to see that my fish taco was actually a SHRIMP taco...and I have a SEVERE allergy to shrimp. (As seen in the first pic I posted, the shrimp was covered by all the toppings so it wasn't obvious...I know what you're thinking!) I called right back and spoke to the same manager I spoke to before to inform her that I was served a shrimp taco by mistake and of my allergy. She was apologetic and offered to remake the order and have someone walk it over to the EV charger. I declined, and received a digital gift card for a future purchase instead. She even offered to give me a call back later to make sure I was ok. She definitely was nice about the whole thing and I really appreciated it. I can't attest to the taste/quality of my food because I didn't eat it and had to throw it all away but the customer service was great. If you have food allergies, please make sure to check your order because my experience could have been much worse than it was.

Place is a hit or miss. All depends who is your server! The last time I went was amazing the young man I forget his name but he reminded me of Ryan Trahan a YouTuber. He was super nice and fun and didn't make me feel rushed like the few other times I went to this location. My martini expresso was yummy thanks to the bar person who made it!

Food is decent. We tried the spicy tuna stack,Cali roll stack, calamari, and rib eye. Outdoor ambiance is nice.

Our weeknight visit started very well with the hostess, Rylie. She greeted us with a smile and found the perfect table for us on the deck. It got cool as the sun went down but the patio heaters kept the chill away. Our server Ernest was friendly, knew the menu thoroughly, gave us excellent recommendations, and took wonderful care of us. Rylie came by later to check on us - so thoughtful. The menu is broad and the food was delicious. We enjoyed the music and laughed while singing along (quietly!) as did several others at nearby tables. Great evening and we will be back soon!

Feels like a bar first and restaurant second, despite being huge. We went on a Wed night and it was packed and so loud. Lots of people dressed to be seen. We asked for inside , because it was a crazy hot day. They sat us in a pseudo inside/outside area (wall open to outside, covered roof with a fan). We decided to move to fully inside; much better! The service was nice, but so slow! My husband and I split a beer flight, so we could try a few options. They were out of 2 that we wanted. We ended up with 3 for me and one for him. When the flight came out, it's not labeled in any way. That sorta defeats the purpose of a flight, if you can't tell which is which. Husband didn't love his, no problem, but she never came back during meal for him to order another drink. In hindsight, I think you can order drinks through table side tablet. For food, I ordered carne asada tacos, which were really good. My friends enjoyed their food too. I think I would have enjoyed this more when it's less crowded or a nice day. The patio is very cute (and big). if it weren't so hot outside. Of course, it's nice that it's in the Rio and you can walk and shop too. However, that also means parking can be a challenge.

5.5.23 My work friends came for happy hour which coincidentally fell on Cinco de Mayo. We had planned this weeks ago. I made reservations for a party of 10 for 4:30 and was informed that at least five of us had to be present before we could be seated. When we arrived it took a few minutes as my party didn't arrive on time and our table was still occupied. The restaurant was packed as you can imagine. There were people seated inside, on the outdoor patio, and the "sunroom" with retractable garage doors. Select apps and all pizzas are 1/2 off from 3-6pm on Monday-Fridays. Also, get $2 off draft beer, wine, spirits, and cocktails, $3 off 9 oz wine, and $4 off half yards. A perk of dining here is that their happy hour menu applies to seating anywhere within the restaurant. This makes Yard House much more appealing and preferable for happy hour over other restaurants that require you to be at the bar. My friends and I ordered drinks and apps. I normally don't drink, but decided to be adventurous and ordered a pina colada. It's not on the menu, but they made it for me. Lesson learned that it never hurts to ask! I also ordered the Lemon Pepper Boneless Wings and a side of Sweet Potato Fries. The pina colada was delicious - sweet, flavorful, and refreshing. The fries came with a ramekin of maple syrup. I've never had it with syrup before and it paired well the fries. The wings were great too. My friend ordered it as well and said it was the best lemon pepper wings she's ever had. Our server was great, but it was convenient to have a tablet at the table to place orders or pay the tab. Parking is limited. My friends found a space, but I had to park in the garage. They said that there is a two-hour limit in the lot, however, I am doubtful anyone is patrolling or enforcing it. The only downside of my experience, which my friends concurred with is that it was loud and hard to hear. Other than that, we had an enjoyable evening on Cinco de Mayo.
