   We went for our last burger of burger bash. We assumed it would be busy so we made a reservation. When we got there it was very busy and the guy that was working the counter couldn’t seem to find the reservation but I had it by text and email from OpenTable. They seated us right away. The menu all looked amazing. They don’t serve alcohol (which I would normally prefer with a burger) so I ordered the caramel cappuccino which was amazing. The burger was a bit of a miss for me. The patties were a good size, the bun was nice, it was dressed well. The only problem I had with it was that on the burger bash listing it said triple patties with cheese sauce. It was served with that American style cheese stuff. I have never liked that. Normally I would have asked up front and then asked to substitute real cheese, but the listing had stated cheese sauce so I went for it. My partner doesn’t mind the taste of that stuff and said the burger was good. We will go back another time and try brunch and likely a third visit for dessert.

   My 1st visit to Dessert Yard was just OK. We had Nachos, which was a very big dish, no complaints. And carrot caramel cheese cake. And Belgium chocolate cheese cake. Both delicious also, but small portion size for the price ($15/slice). The restaurant is clean and beautiful. And bathrooms are clean and smell nice. My complaints are where we sat, the table was jammed between another table and coach and a decorative tree. I had to put my chair into the rocks the tree was situated in just to have space to sit. And therefore making the chair uneven and rocking with every movement. This was unacceptable. This seat should not even be there for use. 2nd issue was the service time. The restaurant was not busy. However nachos took over 45 mins to come to the table. I'm so glad I booked the reservation 2.5 hours before my next appointment. Otherwise it would have been a tight transition. I am hoping to give the Dessert Yard another chance, as I do have a huge sweet tooth and was so very excited to come here.

   Amazing burger week offering, the best I've had this time around. Service a little slow because of volume of business, as expected for a Saturday evening. Dessert, a normal highlight, was a just a bonus this time around.

   Everything overall was good, food was amazing. The only problem that we had was the table we were at at for a group of 5. It was hard for people to be comfortable as there was a crack in the bench right where different people had to sit. The only other thing is being unlicensed means you cannot get a pregame beer with your meal.

   We loved celebrating Eid here! It’s so beautiful at the Dessert Yard. Elegant atmosphere, reasonably priced food and a great time overall. We will keep coming back again and again.

   I was a shock to learn if the dry menu. Zero alcohol. Other than that, it’s beautiful. Recommend going again, just not as a starter to a night on the town 😂

   Service was kind of slow but it seemed like the waiter had a lot of tables. Desserts were delicious.

    Went after a concert on a Saturday night. 10/10 would recommend but definitely need a reservation. Waited 10ish minutes even with one. Service was a tad slow especially given how later is was/ few hours until closed. Only other negative was there was no alcohol/ cocktails and I didn't find that was well known/ easy to find out.
