We had never been to yard house and went for our anniversary. We sat in the bar area; if they had read my app note, we were celebrating our anniversary and maybe would have given us a nicer table (we were near the bathrooms!) Also the chicken lettuce wraps had WAY too many scallions! (I’d prefer none at all but then it would probably be replaced with something else I’m allergic to, if I requested none.) Probably not going to return here; there are other restaurants in area that serve our needs better. The grilled cheese was good, though.
