Editorial review from Citysearch 6/21/2014

At the yard house in Pasadena there is one bartender by the name of Alex who is so so since he tends to forget certain things like a glass of water.An there is another bartender by the name of Adam who can't hang at the door his own personnel unsatisfaction of customers coming In since he chooses to simply ignore you completly when you ask him for water. more

Editorial review from Citysearch 2/4/2014

A restaurant and bar. You can come and dine in or just go to the bar. The food here is really good. I've been here multiple times an everything that I have tried is good. The best thing that I've eaten here was the gumbo. They also have items that are seasonal. more

Editorial review from Citysearch 1/30/2014

We like yard house. Has good selection of beer. For food, try their lobster garlic noodle or their scallops and of course onion rings :) more

Never a dry Glass 3/8/2012

Kinda hard to get a seat on Fri/Sat --- but happy hour is pretty damn near amazing! Favorites: Chicken lettuce wraps & pot stickers. If you feel overwhelmed on selection of Beer ask the bartender, they know what's up. Nice patio for people watching too. And the theater is right across the way. Had a few too many head over for a run down before the drive home. more

good selection of drinks : 11/16/2010

like this place cause they have a wide selection of drinks but it did take a little long for them to come. maybe it was because it was a Saturday night ha more

Love Yardhouse 5/18/2010

Excellent Food. I love this place for lunch. Sit on the patio, quiet and relaxed. Their Barbeque Chicken salad is AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME. Their waiters are intelligent and know their stuff. Pros: Great food for lunch; Awesome selection of Beer Cons: Gets way tooo Crowded some Evenings more

Go for beer, not for food 10/27/2009

Yes the beer selection is huge and one can find a variety of mainstream beers; however, hard to find beers are hard to find here as well. The food was below average and plastic. Will not return. Pros: Huge beer selection Cons: Below average food more

Great-tasting food, huge selection of beer 7/29/2009

Great place to eat. Their food really tastes GOOD -- on a consistent basis. Also, YH is the best place around for cocktails, beer, appetizers. Huge selection of beer on tap. Drawbacks: the noise level inside -- not a good place to carry on a conversation. (Music / TVs etc are too loud.); also the crowds. Still, a cool place to hang out. more

Joke with ID's 3/7/2009

They ID you @ any age. I am in early forties and bar tender had trouble reading my TX. driver?s lic. The tall male blonde headed bar tender is unprofessional. Pass on the place and go to other bar as many others have stated. I needed ?Torrents Guy? order my drink. more

Terrible service to go along with the great selection of beer. 2/16/2009

The restaurant has a wide variety of drinks, however, the service reminds me of a bunch of high school kids hanging out and getting paid to socialize among themselves. Very disorganized wait staff and no management around to control chaos.Only place to be is right at the bar where you can at least flag a bartender. Pros: Great selection of beer and drinks. Cons: Bad service and disorganized staff. more

Best Beer options 3/28/2008

Its my most favorite beer place, I had been there twice and love their beer selection, they give a good competition to Barney's, our waiter Jennifer Val was considerate,service was quick not only we were suggested some some great beers,but we got the fries returned and replaced with onion rings as they werer not great, for tryng beers they have a six pack sample of almost 100 ml each which is lil costly $10 but i fun way to go beer tasting, they have some great appetizers, which are better for ahhpy hours which i remember is sun-wed 10-12, that also makes it a good place to try at night. Pros: Beer Selection Cons: atleast 1hr waiting on weekends more

Good food but the crowd isn't the greatest 3/27/2008

The happy hour menu was pretty good as were the drinks. Nice selection of beers. The only thing is the crowd can get a bit sketchy. It is not the professional crowd like most happy hours. Pros: Great menu and drinks Cons: Semi-sketchy crowd more

Beer selection can't be beat 3/14/2008

This place has a great beer selection and can't be beat happy hour prices on appetizers and drinks. The food is delicious, and the servers working during happy hour are fun and provide great service. I don't love it for dinner as service is slower and they turn up the music too loud, but it's perfect for happy hour. Get there early as the booths and bar seats fill up fast and it's not fun to stand awkwardly around the bar. Pros: Happy hour, parking in the Paseo more

This is a good spot for drinks!!! 3/6/2008

Their pomegranate martinis are so good. My girls and I like to go here for those. I also like the peppered steak and their souffle. It could get super loud at times so you have to yell accross the table. I recommend getting a booth. I usually go here for girls night out. more

pretty good 7/22/2007

Overall, this place is OK. Their food's actually really great, although my family found it kind of oily. (Try getting their Vodka Shrimp Pasta, it's my favorite). Their service were slow but it's a big restaurant and usually very packed so it's nothing you won't expect. Making reservaitons are better but even if you don't, the waiting isn't too long. And you can waste time easily by shopping around since it's at old pasadena mall. The price is affordable & it's a good experience for drinking beer from a very long glass cup. Outdoor's also available. more

NOT BAD 7/22/2007

GREAT FOOD AND DRINKS! I AGREE WITH THE OTHER COMMENT, CALM DOWN AND STOP BEING SO CORPORATE! ITS NOT REALLY A PLEASURE TO WORK ALL DAY IN ORDER AND STRUCTURE AND HAVE RIGID SERVICE WHEN YOU'RE TRYING TO RELAX. ITS ALL ABOUT PRESENTATION, NOT WE GOT SUED SO NOW WE'RE GONNA BE UP EVERYONES BUTT ABOUT IT. Pros: GOOD BEER Cons: RIGID EMPLOYEES(THEY NEED TO TAKE A DEEP BREATH) more

Good beer once you get past the yellow tape 3/24/2007

This place is decent for a corporate bar. They installed security cameras throughout so you have an audience while you drink. They also have this ridiculous policy of ID'ing you every time you order a drink. For example, you and a buddy sit down at the bar. The bartender IDs you and pours each of you a drink. After you finish, another bartender comes up to you and asks if you would like another one. Oh yeah, just one thing. Can he see your ID really quickly?! Get a clue. If we've been served beer already, we have already showed ID. The Yardhouse needs a Logic 101 course and needs to quit listening to its lawyers. Every time I go, I want to tell them--EVERYTHING IS GOING TO BE ALRIGHT. THE WORLD WILL NOT END. more

WORST SERVICE EVER 12/25/2006

this place is terrible i have never had such a crappy experience in a restaurant. first the host tried to seat me and my husband by the bar next to a bunch of college kids. then we waited an hour for our food the waiter was rude and unattentive. i watched him check on the tables next to us several times before he would check on us.. this was a terrible experience i will never walk into another yard house and i will make sure all of my friends family and coworkers know to never waste their time or money on this pitful restaurant. Cons: rude host, rude waiter, unattentive waiter,food served luke warm more

Decent food, EXCELLENT beer!! 11/24/2006

With 3-foot-long glasses of beer, one wouldn't assume that the Yard House would have much in the way of quality. Quite the contrary, their food was excellent (their chicken salad was shockingly good) and their Pear Ale was delicious! more

Don't go here unless you have time to wait.. and wait... and wait 9/1/2006

This place has the slowest service I have EVER been to. I had called in to place my order ahead, before I left for my lunch hour. (*note it takes me about 10-15 mins to get to this place) When I arrived, they advised me my order was almost ready. Funny thing is, when I arrived two ladies were fuming and left because they were angry that they had been sitting at the table for about 30 minutes and no one had offered them anything to drink... not even water. Since it was lunch time... I was expecting about a 10 minute wait, which I was fine with. Then 15 minutes of waiting had passed, I asked the hostess for the status of my order. Since she is the hostess, she couldn't leave her spot. So she asked a waitress to find out the status of my order. The snotty woman didn't even seem like she was going to find out.. whenever the hostess would ask, she would just say... ""its almost ready"" on the spot without checking. So now 25 minutes had passed, I asked for the status of my order again. Their response.. ""its almost ready"". So after 30 long minutes of standing there waiting... I finally asked for a refund. Lol... when I asked for the refund.. guess what the waitress does... she now actually goes to the back... and 1 minute later... hands me my order. What lousy service. I mean... do you actually have to threaten them to leave before they actually check on your order. By this time, I was already fuming because they had made me wait for so long. The manager that was there asked me if I still wanted my order, I advised him NO and that I wanted my refund. The manager didn't even offer to compensate in ANY WAY at all for my wait. Like ""Oh, I'm sorry for the wait, but here's a free ..... or your next meal is on us"" NOTHING... so he handed me my money and I went to Islands instead. What a waste of my time! I mean a total of 40-45 minutes to get one order out is ridiculous! Pros: Food is pretty good. Cons: Horrible staff. more
