"A meal at Birdie’s is homey and thoughtful, like a backyard dinner party thrown by your very talented chef friend where creative plates keep coming and you can never seem to find the bottom of your wine glass. The food is “New American” in the sense that it’s difficult to pin down the exact influences other than seasonality and stuff that simply tastes good, but that’s not really important anyway. What’s important is showing up with a date or a few friends to enjoy the constantly changing prix fixe menu—served family style—while working your way through the fun wine list. No two meals are ever the same, and that’s part of what makes dinner here exciting." - nicolai mccrary, matthew jacobs, raphael brion
