Shoutout to our bartender Juan for the amazing service Pro-tip: Don't show up 20 min before brunch ends like we did haha it will only be available at the bar, which we loved, but the bar can be full so it's a risk. We had the Carnitas Eggs Benny and the Breakfast Royale. If you're you're like me and not good with spicy, the Carnitas Eggs Benny jalapeno hollandaise sauce is actually not too spicy, and has good flavor. The Breakfast Royale was delicious, buts it's definitely messy, so lay that napkin across your lap for sure. She is a bit of a hot sauce snob, so she was disappointed to hear they only had Tabasco or Siracha, BUT was quickly happy to hear about their personal Salsa Verde at Juan's recommendation. Honestly... It was pretty dang good haha we even bought a bottle of it for tomorrows breakfast at home. You can buy bottles of it here. Drink wise the Mimosa Pitcher was the way to go. A single cost $14 and the pitcher (which has like 6 mimosas in it) is $28 so the pitcher was a great deal. The flavor is Orange juice, on the natural/not too sweet side of Mimosas. If you don't drink alcohol, we ordered the Jaunito Mojito mocktail and were pretty impressed with the taste. We didn't get dessert but the gentleman next to us order the Pop tart, and that thing is HUGE haha and it come with 2 large in house made poptarts. Great for sharing if you got room after your main course. Overall great service experience, parking is free with validation, food is great, and drinks were solid. Not crazy expensive, yet quality. Gonna be back to try them Deviled Eggs.

We were visiting from Eugene, Oregon and stumbled upon this restaurant on google. It is SO cute! We sat on the patio and some girlfriends and I could do some damage there during brunch. SO cute! We had the deviled eggs (do it!!), the cauliflower (was good but would be even better more caramelized), the tacos (SO good) - my parents got a wedge salad I believe and loved it! My mom also loved the bananas foster!

The restaurant is attached to a hotel. It’s super cute and they do a really good job with decorating the space. They do offer buffet for breakfast, however it’s not a full spread and is a little on the weaker end. We ended up ordering à la cart from the menu, and the food was pretty good. The coffee was average, nothing special to rave about. Service was slow, the restaurant was not packed by any means but it’s weird how we were treated compared to the other guests…

This place is a lovely place to go for a fantastic dinner. My son and I had dinner reservations here for 7:00. There was a power outage for about 2 hours. With all that in mind we still got a seat at 7:30 when power came back on and it was like nothing happened. They handled the whole like a pro!

Fun place for dinner. Food presentation and taste 5star quality. Wait staff was actually funny, and broke up the silence. They have a separate vegan menu - so if you are into that, make sure to ask for it. The outdoor seating was perfect. Tables were well spaced. Parking was a bit tough. Had to park on the grass. And didn't get towed!

We stayed at the garland for two nights and ate almost every meal at the hotel or at the front yard, the food is fresh and super tasty. Everything we tried was so good. The staff are very nice and helpful.

I thoroughly enjoyed my dinner experience at The Front Yard for the atmosphere, high quality service and decent tapas options. Parking on site is validated for up to 3 hours when you dine in, so be sure to give the ticket to your waiter. Both the outdoor and indoor areas are gorgeous, with modern, yet cozy decorations and furnishings. The fireplace outside is by far the best spot in my opinion and we were lucky enough to be seated in that area. We ordered 5 different shareable plates for 2 and were surprised to find an affordable final total of $30 per person, plus leftovers to take home. Our server was attentive and our food arrived quickly despite the restaurant being quite full. The food itself was pretty good, but could use some improvements to achieve a full 5 stars. The deviled eggs with bacon, wood oven roasted olives and adobo french fries were fantastic, but keep in mind the olive plate is rather large for just 2 people. The peach and guanciale flat bread had decent flavors, but the texture of the bread was tough and the cheese ripped instead of melting, so it was difficult to bite and chew. The kale caesar salad had a delicious dressing, but the croutons were small and sparing. Also, the baby kale leaves themselves were bitter and had the texture (not the taste) of mint. I’d recommend switching to curly kale and massaging it instead to recreate the crunchy texture and less bitter taste that’s in a classic caesar salad.

Nice and quaint restaurant tucked beside Garland Hotel. Friendly and welcoming service. Food was good. Had the short ribs and polenta cake sprinkled with corn and this BBQ demi sauce . Wouldn't order it again. The scallops, steak and deviled eggs and 12 minute biscuits I most definitely would order again. So I'm sure there's other things on the menu that I'd come back for despite the short ribs dish.
