Whiskey Bird

"Happy hour at this Morningside spot takes place on Sundays and Tuesdays through Thursdays, from 5 to 6:30 p.m. Look for specials on beer and cocktails paired with bar bites ranging from okonomiyaki fries to spinach dip with wonton chips and popcorn chicken." - Eater Staff, Henna Bakshi

"Two words: bubble waffle. At Whiskey Bird, the laidback Asian-fusion restaurant located in Morningside, the Hong Kong-style bubble waffle is served with fried chicken, strawberries, mango, and maple syrup bringing together the best of savory and sweet flavor profiles. On the lighter side, their avocado toast with tomato and everything bagel season also hits the right morning notes." - Lia Picard, Henna Bakshi

"Head to Whiskey Bird on the edge of Virginia-Highland and Morningside to enjoy a variety of different sauces and tasty grilled meats in skewer-sized portions that are perfect for groups. The yakitori-focused Asian fusion restaurant offers seven skewer options (get four for $16), but our favorites are the spicy chimichurri shrimp and tender octopus with sausage. A watercolor oasis of deep blues, purples, and greens splashed on the walls serves as a calming backdrop for chatty friends to meet for bao benedicts at brunch. And as dusk sets in, the same atmosphere can also feel romantic with couples sharing a cheesy burger served on a roll from Alon’s Bakery and a bowl of crispy brussels sprouts topped with a fried egg and curling bonito flakes. photo credit: Amy Sinclair photo credit: Amy Sinclair photo credit: Amy Sinclair photo credit: Amy Sinclair" - Juli Horsford

"Why should only humans enjoy the cheery patio at this Morningside restaurant? Enjoy shaded seating and an order of the Hong Kong chicken and bubble waffle (or order a treat to go from the Little Bird takeout window)." - Eater Staff, Lia Picard
