Yard House: A Review of Gaithersburg's Trendy New American Bar

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.

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.

Yesterday, I dined in and had an amazing experience thanks to my server, Rochelle! She was incredibly attentive and knowledgeable about the menu, offering fantastic recommendations for both drinks and food to my family. We were celebrating my niece's birthday, and Rochelle's energy and spirit truly made the occasion memorable. Her exceptional service made our visit something we'll definitely remember. The ambiance was wonderful, and the food came out quickly--everything was delicious! I'll definitely be returning to this location again.

My friends and I went to Happy Hour! Food was very good. Wait staff super nice and attentive. Their French Fries are amazing so flavorful. I love this Restaurant. Go during happy hour the Ambiance is great. Be prepared to wait the lines are always long, but well worth it! See you there!

Very lovely atmosphere and spacious area, not so rambunctious at the bar area located in the middle of the restaurant where you could see Rio Lakefront; it was classy at best although there were some games playing live on their flat screen televisions. It was not difficult to get the bartender(s) attention despite the busy crowd. For my light dinner I ordered the blackened ahi sashimi which was rich in the soy vinaigrette and umami flavor. Their menu is quite extensive there are plenty of seafood + American / Asian cuisine based meals + appetizers! Love this variety.

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!

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!

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.

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
