I went to The Doral Yard Bar with my girlfriend on a weekday and we ended up having a really great time. The atmosphere was relaxed and perfect for hanging out after a long day. We sat outdoors, enjoyed the music, and had easy access to the bathrooms, which was helpful since we stayed until they closed. We ordered the Palomita and the Mango #5, and both drinks were genuinely delicious. The bartender was friendly, fast, and attentive, which made the experience even better. It’s one of those places where you can talk, enjoy good drinks, and just feel comfortable. I would definitely go back, especially for the outdoor area and the quality of the cocktails.

A colleague of mine recommended this spot because she knows I love discovering new places that serve great cocktails and amazing food. Even better? A place that’s family-friendly, date-night-friendly, and perfect for a group of friends to hang out and have a good time. This place fits everyone's needs. Doral Yard is exactly that. It’s a hodgepodge of several restaurant booths along with a central bar and plenty of seating options. Everyone can order from a different vendor, which I absolutely love. If you’re in the mood for sushi, your kid is craving Spanish food, your significant other wants a burger and fries, and your parents are in the mood for pizza — there are so many options for every palate. When I went, I ordered from Poke Kai. I had the Tuna Poke Burger — crispy rice “buns,” raw tuna, eel sauce, scallions, cilantro sauce, spicy mayo, Kai salad, avocado, and sesame seeds. So good! My son ordered two sushi rolls: Mauloa Roll – salmon, cucumber, scallion, crab, fried shallots, and unagi mayo. Moana Tuna Roll – tuna, cream cheese, scallion, crab, tempura flakes, togarashi mayo, and lemon zest. My partner ordered from another vendor called YIP. He had miso soup and 2 orders Peking duck bao (2 per order). Both were absolutely delicious. Of course, I also had to try the drinks from the bar (The Bar at The Yard). I ordered 2 cocktails: NOT A PEAR IN THE WORLD ($16) – Patrón Reposado tequila, lime juice, Chile Ancho Reyes, prickly pear syrup, and Firewater Tincture bitters. WATERMELON SUGAR ($14) – Hendrick’s gin, lime juice, mint, fresh watermelon juice, and simple syrup. Both drinks were super refreshing — and one definitely had a spicy kick! If you haven’t been to Doral Yard yet, please check it out. You will not be disappointed.

I haven’t been to Doral Yard in a few years. Coming back last night felt the same but you can tell it has improved with the additional food options in the back. I also absolutely loved how they decorated for Christmas. Thursday was ladies night so we had an option of complimentary margarita, lemon drop or mojito until 9 pm. I tried the lemon drop and it was delicious. I also loved how fast the service at the bar was despite how packed it was. This is definitely a great place to have holiday celebrations or happy hour.
