Didn't have any wait time for a seat and very quick service. All staff was great and friendly. The giant pretzel was great and the beer cheese was very good. Steak was done perfectly and had a good seasoned crust. Potatoes did not seem fresh and we're pretty dry. I don't think there is a seat in the place that doesn't face a TV screen.

AMAZING experience at Yard House this evening!! I’ve made a few visits here before but this time the service was particularly outstanding. We sat down and were immediately greeted by our server, Tresha. She was so attentive and easy to talk to. We even spoke with one of the bar backs, Laney. She was super friendly and would honestly make a great server!!!! Will be back!!!

Yard House delivers a great dining experience with a fantastic view of the Ohio River. The salad is really good, the edamame was ok, and the steak bowl was really good and not too heavy. Great spot in downtown Cincinnati.

What a fantastic experience. We went Friday night and the service for Makayla was so top notch we decided to come back the next day and requested her again. She didn't disappoint at all. Highly recommended.

Walked in because it was 930pm and it was the only full service kitchen still open. I was wanting dinner but stayed for the atmosphere and the huge menu. Sat the the bar and the staff was amazing. Knowledge and gave great suggestions. The food, amazing! I decided on two appetizers the tuna tower and the hummus, both were delicious the spicy level on both were unexpected but a good surprise. The za' seasoning was a bit overwhelming, but not a deal breaker. Now the drinks! So they have a "Yard" which is a 3 foot glass they will serve you any beer under 8%(if I remember correctly) in so cool and a must try experience. This is definitely the place to watch your games and enjoy yourself. Highly recommend and I will absolutely visit again.

Every Yard House I've been to has been very good and the one is no different. Very conveniently located between the football stadium and baseball stadium and right off the bridge. Restaurant is huge inside and the servers were great. My food came out fast and my tacos did not let me down. No complaints here.. well maybe my spicy rice wasn't really spicy but I'll let it slide.

We had a great time meeting to celebrate my birthday! I wish they were keeping the bread pudding on the menu cuz it was fantastic but he said it was the last day for it. The jambalaya pasta was amazing! I got mine without the crawfish and with the linguine. Amazing! My friend got the chicken Caesar salad and she was amazed at how juicy and flavorful the chicken was. Great experience! I think our server's name might have been EJ. He was awesome and helpful! We also loved the rock playlist they had going that night.
