Yard House Description:
Don't let this loud, cavernous local branch of the restaurant chain fool you. While Yard House boasts the world's largest selection of draft beers and is best known for its juicy burgers, it also offers good seafood and steaks---and it has a pretty decent, if limited, wine list. That said, on a Friday or Saturday night it's a party scene where you can wait up to an hour for a seat---even at the bar. Some patrons don't even bother and just order a 64-ounce beer growler in a large mug to go; but if you did that, you would miss out on the buzzing crowd and great classic rock music. When we finally get to eat, we like the Angus beef burger with applewood bacon, cheddar and barbecue sauce. If you're a seafood-lover, try the crab-crusted swordfish, or join the crowd and pick a house favorite, fish 'n' chips. Watch out, though, for the menu's Asian-inspired specialties, which tend to cater to the American sweet tooth. When the appropriate time comes for something sweet, at dessert, finish with a draft beer float---simultaneously simple and decadent---or go with the crowd again and succumb to the macadamia nut cheesecake.
