Brick Yard Bar & Grill — Restaurant in Clear Lake

It's such a shame that our experience here was so bad. We had gone there to meet with the lady that was going to be marrying me and my fiance so we were in such good mood. The lady left and we waited to order our food. The waitress said she would be back to take our order and returned 15 minutes later. I had asked if they could put a Philly sandwich in a wrap instead, she said she didn't know so she went to the kitchen and came back to tell me no, they could not. They could not just put it in a wrap for me instead of a bun? Ok, they have wraps on their menu so I just held back and was considerate because it wasn't her fault they wouldn't. So then I ordered a Philly and asked for jalapenos on it and my fiance ordered a sampler platter with onion rings, "boneless wings, and jalapeno poppers. We waited 30 minutes for our food. It was fairly slow so that pissed me off to no end. (Being it was 3pm on a Sunday) We got our food and out comes my Philly on a tiny bun, why they wouldn't put it in a wrap I have no idea, but my jalapenos were on the side. Now as someone who orders Phillys often, they are a messy option usually. These things have the toothpicks in it to hold everything together and they expect me to take it apart to put my jalapenos in. But enough about me. My fiance's sampler platter was all slightly burnt, the boneless wings she ordered come with SAUCE ON THE SIDE, NOT TOSSED IN THE SAUCE. What irks me about that is they told her she couldn't have 2 flavors of them. The sauce was on the side, it's as easy as saying it's an upcharge and giving us another cup of sauce, but the point is these were basically burnt chicken nuggets at best. And between those 2 items, a pop and an iced tea our order was 30$. Was not worth it, a waste of our time, and we will never be going back there. A little bit of constructive criticism now at the end in case someone from there reads this "It really appeals to people a lot more when sauces aren't on the side and you give customers options with their meals. Charging extra for Chipotle sauce on the side is rediculous since it's basically just mayo and your prices are already so high, and not tossing your wings in an actual sauce is just...

Got to the Brickyard around noon on a Saturday afternoon. Place was generally busy yet a number of tables remained open. They also had their outside patio available for seating. Started things off with their bacon, cheese and sour cream tater kegs. Basically they're an oversized tater tot with good flavor. Had probably 10 of them and could only eat half due to the main course coming eventually and had to pace myself. Ordered the Andouille pasta which was good. Many pieces of sausage with an ample supply of peppers and penne made it a good lunch. For my side went with the house side salad. Salad was very fresh and contained a large helping of cucumbers, cherry tomatoes and croutons. Only thing that could change is sauce for the pasta was, in my estimation, a bit watery and should be a little more thicker. Service was very good as my waitress basically came at the time needed and wasn't overbearing. Got two boxes for any leftovers and brought my take home order of bacon cheeseburger wrap. Large parking lot adjacent for easy access. Front door large enough for wheelchair access. Good lunch at Brickyard and hope to come back at a later date to try their broasted chicken which I had in the past year and...

Agree with everyone who said the staff is rude, they are very rude. Use to spend a lot of money here as it's close to home. But not worth being treated badly so will NOT be going back. Went in around 7:30 - 8pm one on a wed. night, not busy at all, only a few people. Bartender was just not nice. Ordered to cups of soup, it was good. We had just gotten back from Floriday fixing damage from hurricane, so had not much food in fridge. Decided to get a couple soups to go to get us through lunch next day. The rude woman bartender, told us they didn't have anymore. It's like we just ordered it 10 minutes ago. Ok whatever. Mind you, the place was pretty empty. Then heard the other bartender ask what we wanted to go, she said "Soup, I told them we didn't have any more" Really, what is your problem, we were so put off, we didn't even finish our drinks, we just left. Will never go back. The rudeness happened a prior time but figures she was just having a bad day. But don't think so now, she's just a rude...
