Mizner Park is the hottest spot in Boca, and it became even more popular when the Yard House arrived in 2012. Featuring an award-winning array of American cuisine from salads, pastas, sandwiches, and seafood to burgers, steaks, tacos, and poultry, the Yard House truly has it all. Depending on how hungry you are does not matter when it comes to the Yard House; they have all different sizes of entrees and even offer several snacks for a small bite to eat. The items on the menu are reasonably priced. If you are looking for a place to drink, the Yard House is the right answer with their unique, massive selection of beers, as well as specialty drinks and wine.

FOOD:
I have dined at the Yard House three times, enjoying the pepper crusted filet and the fried chicken. The steak was juicy and delicious. The filet let arrived sizzling, over a sweet cream sauce. The fried chicken was also flavorful; it was perfectly crispy outside and tender inside.

I have been told that the fish there is also magnificent. All in all, you cannot go wrong with anything at the Yard House.

The challenging aspect is selecting your meal from the extensive menu. I recommend that you preview the menu online to help with your choices.

ATMOSPHERE:

Have you been convinced yet? Well, just like the food, the atmosphere is one of the best I have experienced. The vibrant atmosphere is driven by the dynamic crowd supplemented by rock and roll music in the background and numerous flat-screen TVs at every angle for viewing. Sporting events on the big screens generate a lively buzz from the crowd. If you are looking for great food and entertaining place to watch the game, this is a restaurant for you. This is also a great place for a date with its energetic atmosphere. While I ate inside, pleasant outdoor dining is also available.

SERVICE:

The only drawback is that it can be difficult to get a table. The Yard House does not accept reservations but does offer “30 minute call-ahead service.” The nightly waiting list for a table represents how successful the restaurant has been attracting customers. The tasty food is delivered quickly fresh from the kitchen, and the waiting time is brief between the appetizers and the main entree. Knowledgable waiters who understand the menu make the dining experience even sweeter.

FINAL VERDICT: 5/5

The outstanding food, lively atmosphere, and great location make it an excellent place to hang out with friends, take a date, or see a big game.
