Southern comfort food: fried chicken, biscuits, lobster mac & cheese
"A neighborhood spot elevating rotisserie chicken with unique sauces and sides, also offering prepared foods and wines by the bottle." - Beth D'Addono
"The popular Miami import that serves thick-battered fried chicken in gold baskets doesn’t skip the theatrics when it comes to its deviled eggs, either. Each egg balances a towering whirl of dill and chives, then topped with smoked trout roe for a fancy finale ($15)." - Tierney Plumb
"Buttermilk biscuits and thick-battered fried chicken brined for 27 hours have put Yardbird on the map, but this restaurant delivers more than reliable Southern-inspired staples. Take, for instance, the house espresso martini ($16) crafted from fresh espresso (decaf or regular), Tito’s vodka, Kahlua, and crème de cacao. Pro tip: The drink pairs perfectly with the banana pudding cheesecake for dessert (pictured)." - Mekita Rivas, Tierney Plumb
"New Year’s Day marks the final day of Yardbird’s “9 Days of Brunch” celebration, with a menu featuring classic dishes like chicken and waffles ($42) and shrimp and grits ($37) to specials including a “Yardbird Benedict” ($32) made with a buttermilk biscuit, spinach, Kentucky ham and crabmeat hollandaise." - Kalina Newman
"The popular Miami import is best known for comfort foods like its thick-battered fried chicken brined for 27 hours, buttermilk biscuits, and lobster mac and cheese. The eatery has two spacious patios, as well as plenty of indoor seating." - Mekita Rivas, Eater Staff
