Bird Café

Beautiful restaurant and attentive staff. Although this is a large restaurant, the designers broke up the spaces into more intimate dinning settings. I have included some pictures to show off the different spaces. The menu is all farm to table and features a good selection of meat, poultry and fish. There is even a delicious all vegetable entree for Vegan and Vegetarian dinners. There is a small balcony space with a comfortable couch and fire pit that over looks Sundance Square for the romantics and those who what a small group celebration. I would recommend reservations on the weekends. The restaurant can accommodate small and large groups. Families with older children would feel comfortable, but I would not recommend this restaurant for young children.

Fantastic restaurant right on Sundance Square in downtown Ft Worth. We had Sunday brunch there and it was delicious. Service was great and the facility is an awesome historic restoration of a Victorian style commercial building. It is preferred to make reservations, you will get much better seating.

Amazing food, service, & comfort! Homer is a great asset of a waiter, more of a staple of this place. He was very knowledgeable of the historical information behind the business and a wealth of knowledge regarding the menu. Still talking about our unique meals and how wonderful the flavor was. True homecoming, made with lots of love and great presentation, with an upscale flare. They have gluten free options that are filling. Country breakfast, avocado omelet, adding avocado slices, bread pudding, and Henry's creamy caramel icecream was to die for! We had a fantastic time!

The atmosphere is great. And if you're looking for a good place to go have Sunday afternoon mimosas I would say yes go here! My food was just OK. English muffin was hard as a brick and my hollandaise was more like a mayo based tart something. However, not an awful experience overall.

Summary (4/5): Good food for a fair price with a nice interior, but service is a tad slow. Bird cafe's interior is reminiscent of an 80's restaurant that has been modernized. There is plenty of seating both outside and inside, and its location right inside Sundance plaza is fantastic. On average, the appetizers and salads are in the 12-$15 range and the main menu can be in the mid 20's depending on what you're ordering. I was a bit disappointed by the somewhat limited selection of choices for the main course, but that isn't a big deal to me if the taste is up to par. Thankfully, the food was solid, especially my barracuda filet. The salads were also good and nothing really disappointed the palate. The service, however, was questionable. Despite a relatively vacant restaurant service was somewhat slow, both in waiting for the food and for additional services. For example, our table wanted some bread to go with the salad (which I assumed was common), but I had to remind our waiter about it twice. There was an additional wait due to the bread needing to be heated up, but I wish there was some notification as to the reason behind the delay. Perhaps I'm being too picky, but considering the price and decor and the lack of patrons, I would've expected service to be a bit more attentive.

Their service is never the best (been about 10-15 times now and waiters and management definitely need improvement, story below) but their views are great, food is tasty (get the Belgium mussels and Bone Marrow!!😋), and drinks are perfection. I go again and again specifically for the scene and tasty cocktails. This last time there was a mixup with the waiters, so while one waiter greeted us another waiter was supposed to handle the table. They got confused and neither one of them waited on us. It was about 25 minutes in when we finally reached out to the hostess to inquire about our waiter. She happened to be walking by, the manager (male, at that time we didnt know he was a manager) told us to wait so they could merge a table together for a party coming in later. When they finally turned around they figured out what happened, fixed it, but no one even apologize...bird cafe never apologizes for mistakes that ive experienced. Needless to say, their bartenders are worth the visits ;)

Interesting menu, but not weird! Gorgeous old building. Comfortable chairs! Excellent service (thank you Katie)! I had the pastrami sandwich, it had buttered cabbage instead of sauerkraut like a Rueben, very delicious. The fries were very good (I normally do not care for fries). A nice stop in Fort Worth downtown. A BEAUTIFUL DOWNTOWN!

Nice Saturday night out. Vibrant area on weekends, nice plaza for walk in good weather. Sat at bar for great drinks before reservation. Shared steak tartare, deviled eggs pickled in tumeric, rabbit pot pie, and a nice chess pie dessert. Great downtown spot.
