   Too loud and all the dogs made it feel like you were eating at a dog shelter. Food was fine but hard to enjoy.

   First time dining. The noise from music and tv made conversation impossible. Do not go here if you want a quiet dinner. We enjoyed salmon, street tacos and lettuce wraps.

   Ranelle, we're so glad you enjoyed the food at Backyard! We do want to remind our guests that we are a live music venue and stream football games with sound on, which can make the atmosphere more lively. If you're looking for a quieter dinning experience, we recommend visiting us earlier in the day! We appreciate your feedback and hope to see you again soon.

   It was my first time at Backyard and I loved it. The atmosphere was so energetic. I thoroughly enjoyed the tasty bar food and drinks at very reasonable happy hour prices. Our server was exceptional and provided great service. I especially loved the games within the establishment that guests could play while eating and drinking. The backyard-style decor was great and added to my overall satisfaction of this neighborhood gem.

   Food was great! Was very loud with the band AND a full building but it was the weekend and didn’t love that there were barking dogs at the table next to us (inside!!!) but still an enjoyable night.

   Hi Melanie! We're glad you enjoyed the food. We understand the music can be loud at times, as we are a live music venue. However, we apologize for the barking. We hope to see you again soon for another great night!

    We were very pleased with the quality of the food. A step up from the normal sports bar. Drinks were good, too. We’ll be back!
