    Great service, drinks were delicious the dishes were on time and well made , a very enjoyable experience, By the way they validate the parking if you dine inside because 2 to 3 hours can be almost 20 dollars without it.

    A favorite place for a business lunch. Portions aren’t large but they are filling. Food is very good, not the greatest (there’s no specific item I want to come back for) but the overall experience is great for lunch or a drink on a sunny day.

    This place is a local gem! Went for afternoon Sunday brunch. It was the perfect afternoon to sit outside. Absolutely beautiful day! We were seated right away. Hubby had Open Face Steak and Eggs and I had the Carnitas Benny. We shared some of each other's plates. Both were outstanding! Our server Jansen was very attentive, as was the manager who stopped by our table. We had the cinnamon cardamon beignets (accompanied by local honey and raspberry preserves) which was the perfect end to a wonderful afternoon. (Parking is validated). Can't wait to return back again!

    Overall, the food was flavorful & the atmosphere was nice. I'm not sure I'd treat myself here again due to the vibe from the waiter (kind of judgy and made me feel unwelcome).

    We sat on the patio because it was a nice day and it’s always quieter outside to me. I can’t hear well with lots of background noise. It was very pleasant and the food tasted great. Salad portions were a bit small.

    Staff very friendly, and food was great. There's a weird mold/mildew odor that lingers, I smell it everytime I go there, my guests notice it too. An odd thing happened recently when the place was practically empty but they made me wait for my whole party. I could've ordered an appetizer and cocktail but they didn't see it that way. Other than that, all good.

    Only thing was the desserts were tasty but not easy to eat. Specifically the cookie sandwiches. Too crunchy and big for the ice cream to bite but then not soft enough to spoon. But then not good to smash together either. Overall taste was great on all items we ordered.

    We went for Thanksgiving Dinner, not realizing it was a buffet. The food was really quite good, but SO expensive for a Buffet- the value just was not there- $80 p/p + 30 surcharge- almost $300 with drinks? Michelin prices for Cheesecake Factory quality...makes me nervous to go back for a "real" meal.

    I went for the Thanksgiving buffet and the food was very nice. The only thing was that it felt a bit rushed. We got there at 7:30pm and we were told at 8:15pm that the buffet would close in 15 minutes so we needed to hurry up if we wanted to get dessert. For $85 per person you would've expected a little more grace time wise.

    Another great experience at The Front Yard! Though we had a later reservation, they were out of some items (oysters) and the soup was on the colder side- but everything else was spot on in the Thanksgiving Buffet!

    Front yard was wonderful way for our family to celebrate together! Beautiful ambience. Great good. The service was “good,” but they may have needed a few extra helpers to accommodate Thanksgiving crowds…the food was also delicious- but definitely on the high end! We’ll be back!👍

    The buffet sides were not hot. The brioche stuffing was dry. Broccolini was boring. The meat was fine, but for a Thanksgiving meal that costs $250 for 2 people, it should’ve been a lot better.

    Went here for their Thanksgiving meal. Arrived on time, but told they were still seating from previous reservation time. Had to wait for 15 minutes before seated. Very long complex walk to the buffet thru crowd and other tables. Glad we weren't seated at one of the tables that was part of the walkway, as they had no reprieve. First trip to buffet saw them run out of all of the seafood items. Returned later and it was adequately stocked. Somewhat strange buffet layout. Prime rib was undercooked. Stuffing was all bread. Waiter was cordial, but often had to go get our own utensils. Slapped with a 18% convenience fee, but still requested 18-20% tip, even though it was a buffet, and waiter only had to bring drinks. Do not recommend this place for holiday meals.

    The venue and service is great. The food is delicious (and a bit pricey). We did the Thanksgiving day buffet, so the crowd was expected and might not reflect the usual ambiance. We had a lovely time all around, however. A great holiday meal alternative.

    The ambiance is chill yet vibrant. The grounds are beautiful. The food was very good, everything was well prepared and creative. We went for Thanksgiving buffet, the wine selection by the glass was exceptional. the food quality was top notch. Our server Sonia was amazing, she always had a smile on her face and went out of her way to make sure everyone was happy. Thank you Front Yard Team for making our thanksgiving great.
