A: I gotta admit, I'm a pretty big fan. I like cheap. I like tasty. This review is for the Happy Hour part at Yard House...I've never eaten any regular meals there! Everytime we've gone, it's for Happy Hour. Yes, Yard House does keep me happy! Just look at my check-ins for this place. OK, yes, it's bar food, and yes, it's nothing overly stellar. But for what they do it is remarkable in terms of food. And the prices! You can easily get away for feeding a group of four for under $35. Take your kids, take your friends, double date! A good time can be had for little cost. Yard House has Happy Hour M-F from 3 PM - 6 PM, Sun-Wed from 10 PM - Close. Lots of opportunity to stock up on grub! Our first time here was on a hunch since we were staying at Red Rock Casino at the time for my birthday. We've been back at least twice a month since! Payday = YHHH day (Yard House Happy Hour). Most days, especially weekdays after 5 PM Yard House is packed! The good thing about their Happy Hour is that you can sit ANYWHERE in the restaurant and partake in the cheapy goodness. No need to only sit at the bar or the patio. Happy Hour indeed! We bring our kids quite often to eat with us. For Happy Hour at Yard House there is a plethora of food and drink selections. Pints (of a $hi+load of different choices) go fron $3.75 - $5.75 range. Half yards go from the $7.50 - $10.00 range, house martinis are $6.50, and specialty drinks and wine by the glass are $2.00 off. But honestly, I come for the food! For me Yard House does not disappoint! Yard House has a bunch of appetizers and pizzas that are 1/2 price during Happy Hour. Choices abound, variety too! Some of our most ordered faves: -Spicy Thai Chicken or BBQ Chicken Pizza -Fried Calamari -Hawaiian Poke Stack (most def a fave) -Onion Ring Tower -Chicken Nachos (another fave) -Seared Ahi Sashimi (yet another fave) -Spicy Tuna Roll (it's not sushi but we like it anyway) -Buffalo Wings -Chicken or Mushroom Lettuce Wraps On most occasions we will have nearly all these items on our table! We are piggies! It's a good thing the tables at Yard House are HUGE. No matter though, whatever we don't finish we take home for leftovers later! Although we ALWAYS end up finishing the Hawaiian poke stack and the seared ahi. Those are very ONO. Yard House doesn't offer sushi like other Happy Hour joints around Las Vegas but no matter. Their food usually fits the bill pretty good. Another plus? Each dish available during Happy Hour ranges from $5 - $8...and they are full appetizer servings! Cheap, and lots of it. A very good choice for decent eats in the Summerlin area! I have a beer (or three), and a few appetizers and I'm as happy as a clam during Happy Hour. It is a good time. Service is very courteous and pretty quick, even during peak Happy Hour time. Keep up the cheap eats Yard House, I will be back! H-A-P-P-Y H-O-U-R

A: Took a couple here for their 5 year wedding anniversary a few weeks ago. Past experiences have been great, so we were looking forward to the same. Service was great as usual with attentive waitstaff and great drinks from the bar. The anniversary couple had steak and a dinner salad. I had scallops, which half were perfect and half were undercooked. What really earned the 2 stars though, was the clams with hoisin sauce my wife ordered. Somehow, someway her plate was served with a few unopened clams. Now I have seen varying opinions on eating unopened clams, but why would a fine dining establishment risk it and serve them? Not sure if we will return, but we really enjoyed meals there in the past.

A: The thing I always enjoyed about Aurelio's was that even though it was a little more expensive, you always got a much better product. Lately it seems that they are really skimping on the quality, and still demanding premium pricing. I used to eat Aurelio's pizza as a kid, it was always my favorite part of visiting family on the South Side. When I lived in Chicago I would regularly enjoy the lunch buffets in Evergreen Terrace and a few other locations. I also used to love watching games at the Cheyenne location before it closed. So my aunt got me a giftcard for my birthday, and I figured I'd drive across town to check this one out, hoping it would be worth the 20-minute drive. When I called this afternoon, they said there was a dinner buffet tonight from 5-9pm, which was perfect, I thought, because you can enjoy a few different topping combos and some salad for a reasonable price. I drove 10 miles, and got there a little after 8. I walked past a giant sign on the building advertising the buffet on Tuesday nights from 5-9. I walked in, and there was no buffet. I asked the girl, and she said there was no buffet, went to the back and came back and offered me a special that was basically a small pizza for $12.99, and said it was the same as the buffet. I don't really know what they do for the buffet, or how much it costs exactly, but there are two mutually exclusive possibilities, either: 1) The special was the same as the buffet, which seriously undermines the quality of the buffet, or 2) The special was not the same as the buffet, in which case they were lying to me. It says a lot about a place if they are not willing to offer you even the bare minimum that they are advertising. I understand that the restaurant was slow, and that's probably why they didn't offer the buffet, but maybe more people would go if they could count on the buffet to actually be there. I know I'm never going to drive 20 minutes for the mere possibility of a buffet again. And why do they only offer the buffet on Tuesday nights? Maybe people would come if they didn't have to think about what day it is before deciding what to eat? If you can get $13 per person for the buffet, are you seriously unable to offer it on every night of the week? There is way too much great food and great value in Las Vegas that this place really doesn't deserve your business. I also just found a recipe for their sauce online, so maybe I can just make my own.
