The super dog friendly SOHO Grand offers an added benefit in the summer by turning its side alley into The Yard. Although it is located in the SOHO district in New York City the atmosphere at The Yard is very LA. Every time we’ve gone it’s in the afternoon or happy hour time so it’s bustling, but not overcrowded. Even during these times service was laid back (verging on slow). When you sit at the bar the staff is super friendly and chatty. With the teak furniture, canopies and chill service you start to feel like you should be sitting by a pool. Drinks are expensive but well made, appetizers are the same. I had the king crab leg 2x in one weekend and it was well worth the price and the wait.
