About Birdsong

Birdsong is a Michelin-starred restaurant situated in a neighborhood that faces some challenges. The restaurant features a 10-course Journey menu with wine pairing, crafted with distinct flavors that complement each other, and beautifully presented dishes like quail legs and a spicy falcon burger. The food experience is enhanced by attentive staff who go above and beyond to ensure every detail is perfect. The atmosphere is lively, modern yet cozy, with bird-related decorations and thoughtfully chosen utensils adding to the ambiance. The chef's dedication is evident in the creative multi-course menu, where every part of the ingredients, such as the quail, is used to make flavorful and memorable dishes. The crab bites and incredible skewers are highlights, and the red abalone stands out as a favorite, tender and served with umami sauce, crunchy bits, and cooked vegetables. The wine pairing, though not perfect, includes a dessert wine that was especially aromatic. The desserts are not overly sweet and include a delightful birthday sundae with in-house sprinkles, evoking warm nostalgic feelings. The attentive staff, including a server who explained the use of wood from their hearth, adds to the warm and passionate atmosphere. Birdsong is a place where every detail reflects passion and care, making it a truly unique dining experience worth returning for. Whether dining in or ordering delivery, it offers a memorable culinary journey that feels like stepping into a different world outside the neighborhood’s challenges.
