    We were traveling and it was my birthday so we wanted to eat a good dinner to celebrate. I actually found Yardbird while looking at Open Table. We agreed it looked great and decided to book our dinner. It was awesome!! The food was delicious, our waitress (Christine) was very attentive and friendly and quick to help us. Everything we ordered was top notch and the portions were very generous. I am so glad we found Yardbird and tried it. I want to go back!!

    We took my husband here to celebrate Father’s Day. The ambience was beautiful. The server was attentive and courteous, and the appetizer came out quickly. We ordered the chili crab oysters and they were delicious! The drinks (Blueberry Lemon Crush/Old Fashioned) were great, too. Dinner took a hit. The table ordered the Cioppino, the Spicy Chicken sandwich, the ceviche, and the 1/2 Nashville fried chicken. The cioppino was lovely, but the fish and shrimp were overcooked. The lemon sauce on the ceviche was unbearable and the accompanying plantain chips were unseasoned. The absolute best thing on the menu was the Nashville fried chicken. It was tender, juicy and full of flavor. I will visit again just to order this dish!
