Visited this location for the 1st time on a Sunday. There was zero wait time and we were greeted immediately. Val was our server. She offered beer samples and put together a flight for me based on my taste preferences. Her service was world-class. I had the whiskey glazed salmon. The restaurant was clean, there are plenty of TV's and the beer selection is unreal.

"Yard House East Rutherford boasts a vibrant ambiance with its modern decor and lively crowd, creating a fun atmosphere for gatherings. The menu features a diverse selection of dishes, including vegetarian and gluten-free options, catering to different dietary preferences. However, I have noted that the food can be inconsistent in terms of quality and freshness. Additionally, the noise level can be quite high, making it challenging to have a conversation during peak hours. While the service is generally attentive, wait times for food and drinks can be lengthy, especially on busy nights. Overall, Yard House East Rutherford is a decent choice for a casual meal or drinks with friends, but it may not be the best option for a quiet dining experience."

This was our first time at this mall, at least for us adults. After a day filled with rides the kids wanted to eat here. They love that they can watch through this extremely large window into the ski/snowboard area and eat a burger. We had the truffle burger, Asian beef tacos, and mac and cheese with mushrooms and truffle. I didn't like my dish which were the tacos. The beef was too chewy. My daughter didn't like the Mac and cheese much because she tasted too much truffle. The ones that had the truffle burgers loved them, so depending on what you get I guess it can be hot or miss. The cheese curds we got as an appetizer were tasty and disappeared in under a minute. Come for the view and a good burger. I'd probably try this establishment again and get a pasta dish next time to be safe.

When I at here they had just opened. They really didn't have their service team together and it showed in the poor service and food quality. It's atmosphere is mall quality and extremely high prices. I will definitely check it out again but if it's still sloppy and I have to send my food back I'll let you know If you go in remembering your in a mall you might be disappointed.

The food is always consistent. Our server wasn't too excited but he was very prompt and ready to take our order! The ambiance was just enough on a Monday. Happy hour is the best bang for your buck at the mall.

Paula was our server this afternoon and she was great! Her section was super busy, but she was on top of everything.I also LOVE 80’s music so the vibe was impeccable. Good food, good service, and great music. I’ll definitely be back.

Disappointing and mediocre food. Came here for a birthday: Nachos, calamari, and Korean bbq cheesesteak (rated as the top thing on the menu from a popular website) were all bland and dull. Way too packed and loud as well. On top of that $5 to park at the mall is ridiculous. Skip this place. Quite frankly skip the entire mall as well. Much better food and free parking within close proximity

Horrible Music. They played Spanish music, and Hip Hop music. What happened to the famous Yard House Playlist??? Terrible music. The waiter told us that the manager plugged his cell phone into the sound system, and that the manager was playing music for the himself not for the customers. This happened on afternoon of 4/7/2024. Can corporate tell the manager to stop playing his cell phone music on the Yard House sound system?? I'm definitely not going back to The American Dream Mall Yard House. I don't want to be force to listen to a Yard House manager's personal cell phone playlist.

We came here to pregame before mini golf. We hung out around the bar for half an hour while the staff ignored us before we were told that we can't order when standing around. Then we sat at a table but my wife couldn't order a beer for me because I was using the bathroom. Then once the food came out we had no utensils or napkins and had to use our hands before a waiter finally came by. The service was so bad. Won't come back unfortunately.
