"The best part of the restaurant is its service, and that wasn't close to the best I've had elsewhere. However, because I was unable to find a more business lunch appropriate resturant in the local area we had to make due with this one. This restaurant is appropriate for a casual lunch with co-workers."

Review 2 for Backyard Grill and Bar

Overall Rating 4.0 out of 5 (Very Good)
"I was pleasantly surprised to learn that Backyard Grill and Bar was on opentable. Usually the higher-end restaurants participate with opentable; it's nice to see a mid-range/price restaurant, too.

The service was very good and the food wasn't too bad. We ordered run-of-the mill nachos as an appetizer and cheeseburgers as our entrees.

I especially like how the smoking section is completely separate from the main dining area. And yes, I will definitely return to this restaurant!

"As a special event for a sports bar this was a surprise winner. The turkey was excellent and the sides particullarly the gravies were star quality. The only thing missing was the cranberries!"

Review 4 for Backyard Grill and Bar

Overall Rating 4.0 out of 5 (Very Good)
"The food response was mixed. We had a bad start because OpenTable accepted a reservation for 4:30pm for the Thanksgiving brunch... but the brunch ended at 4pm, so we showed up to a nearly empty restaurant and no brunch buffet. However, they did offer all of the food in the buffet as a Thanksgiving special, and I got that. It was VERY good - maybe the best turkey I've ever had. My father in law got the filet and even though he is a picky eater, he really liked it and has put The Backyard Grill on our list of places to eat. However, my mother-in-law got the ribeye and it was very fatty, so much so that she didn't eat much of it. Also, my wife's Teriyaki steak did not look very good and she wasn't very happy with it. It was 50/50."
