"For a while, Bird was a sly spot on a corner strip in the Optimist Park. But then, the New York Times called it one of the best pizza restaurants in the U.S., and since then, it’s been a bit of a commotion trying to pre-order one of the pies. But the buzz is for good reason. Bird’s crust is molded and crisped with deftness, making for a chewy-enough-sturdy-enough base. Customers can build their own pies; if you do, get the hot honey drizzle, whether you’re rocking with a red or white sauce. Ingredients are achingly fresh, and the cheese caramelizes to a picture-perfect light golden brown. Pros know to take it to-go and head next door to Substrate for a crushable red wine." - Kayleigh Ruller
