My guest and I had a nice lunch here at Backyard Bar & Grill. I had Bbq chicken and ribs with sides. She had Casino Crab. The food was great after waiting for a while because the waiter is fairly new. Other than that, it went well. He still got a tip. The window view is everything!! #People watching and talking while waiting on our food. Much later, there were others who came in to have a meeting while dining. Great setup for meetings with coworkers. I will come back again. Oh, I forgot to mention that the bar area is really nice. My guest had a strawberry something, not really sure… I had lemon/lime water. Really good!

Hands down one of my favorite Portuguese spots! Codfish bites appetizer is tasty and melts in your mouth! Love the shrimp in garlic sauce with rice and fries. I can’t get enough!

Terrible establishment, 40 minute wait for a quesadilla and chorizo sandwich. Place is empty except a family friend of the guy behind the bar that was picking his nose. This establishment is empty keep in mind. We asked the waiter about our food after half an hour she said two minutes ten pass by. We asked to pay for our soda to leave and she hands us the bill for our whole meal which we hadn’t recieved yet after 40 minutes of waiting in an empty resturant as if we were the butt end of a joke. Please save yourself time and never come here. Sadly jimmys buffs was closed for vacation so we decided to stop here, one of the worst mistakes in my life.

5 stars for price/quality ratio. This is not a fancy sofisticated bbq place, but the food is good, the portions are huge and the price is right.

Environment was upgraded, looked nice. Somehow the portion for combo was decided to be “personal” but kept at same price. That was unacceptable and had to order two and was still less than original size or takeout. Either shift the price down or make customers aware I’d the portion change…we were expecting the usual portion size and what why we’ve been loyal customers. Won’t be visiting until this has changed.

I ordered food for my coworkers like 15 ppl. The food was freshly made and delicious. It was the first time my coworkers tried it and they loved the quality. I also stop by here Ayer my night college class to get some old before heading home and they never disappoint.

I order from here often and I do run into them forgetting a part of my order or messing the order up completely. the food is pretty decent until I ordered the garlic chicken as I have done before. This time around I took a bite of the chicken it was not made as it usually was. After one bite of the chicken I could not continue as it was not fully cooked. I ended up eating the rice and the Spanish potatoes and due to the garlic sauce that the chicken was on top of soaked into the rice big mistake because I woke up with food poisoning. Really sad to say I will not be ordering from backyard grill again.

Tried there new dine in area. The waitress was not very attentive or friendly. Never checked on me. She acted like she didn’t speak English at one point, but then she spoke English perfectly at another moment. Not the best experience
