Yard House
405 K St., Suite 100, Downtown
Yard House is a bar and New American restaurant. With 110 taps, the chain claims to have the world's largest selection of draft beer (check out the full list here).
Its food menu is nothing to scoff at, either. From lobster, crab and artichoke dip to chicken lettuce wraps, the appetizers are vast, while the main course offerings include house favorites of poke bowls and fried chicken, plus steak, seafood, tacos, pizza, burgers, sandwiches and dessert items to top it off.
Yelp users are still warming up to Yard House, which currently holds 3.5 stars out of 161 reviews on the site.
Yelper Luke C., who was one of the first users to visit Yard House on Dec. 1, wrote, "There are so many options here it really can be a bit overwhelming... My only qualm with Yard House was that the food, while very good, isn't above and beyond for the price that they want for it. For the cost, I'd like something that really blows me away."
But Yelper Donovan H. noted, "They offer an enormous beer selection (with well over 100 draft beers on tap), generous portions of their appetizers and entrees, and just an overall fun experience."
Yard House is open from 11 a.m.–midnight Monday-Thursday, 11 a.m.–1:20 a.m. on Friday and Saturday, and 10 a.m.–midnight on Sunday.
