I sat and sat and no one can to take my drink order or say hi.

Guests have praised the standout dish, Llewelyn’s fried chicken, which is noted for its crispy skin and flavorful, moist meat. The mashed potatoes and gravy also received high marks for their rich taste. The cornbread and cocktails were described as fantastic, although some felt the cocktails could use a bit more flavor.
Service at Yardbird generally receives positive feedback, with several servers being highlighted for their attentiveness and friendliness. However, there were a few comments about the service being inconsistent, such as issues with order accuracy and attentiveness at times. The environment is stylish and well-designed, although it can get noisy when busy, making it less ideal for intimate conversations.
While the prices are slightly on the higher side, many diners find the portions generous, with enough food available to satisfy smaller appetites.
