Overall, we had a lovely dining experience. Three Birds was very nice. The menu was varied and interesting. The food was good - a bit short of great with slightly overcooked and over-salted fish dishes and over-salted homemade humus. The drinks were healthy pours at decent prices. The service was mostly attentive. The interior space is very nicely designed and there is a handsome bar through which one enteres.

This is probably the best restaurant in Corning, but this time the food slipped a notch in my opinion

Friendly greeting, pleasant wait staff, excellent food, not rushed. Would definitely return if in the area.
Marjorie
Very pleasant comfortable dining experience. The ambiance and service were quite good. The food was mixed: seafood soup ok, veal tornados very good, pecan crusted pork loin bland, dessert so-so. Definitely not value for dollars.

So much for fine dining. This whole experience was beyond disappointing. I’m being generous with 3 stars because our server was a nice person and the drinks were good. When I made the reservation months ago, I mentioned we were celebrating a birthday and that we would like a window table. Neither were acknowledged. The hostess showed one person in the party to a cramped table when it was said TWICE that we needed to wait for another person paying at the bar. She ignored me, so I ended up going back to the bar and showing them to the table myself. Soup came out quickly (btw, what kind of “fine dining” establishment serves a cheap plastic wrapped package of oyster crackers? come on…), but we waited forever for entrees. Bar napkins and straw wrappers (aka garbage) stayed on the table for most of the service until they were accidentally knocked on the ground. I can go to a cheap diner and they’ll take care of table garbage better than this place did. Food was forgettable. Potato mash was gritty russets (has the kitchen never heard of a yukon gold?). Sauces on the swordfish and the lamb feature were weirdly sweet. Also, lobster thermidor is one of the features? What in the 1950s is that about? We were never even offered a dessert menu when the server picked up our plates, so we just asked for the check. For a $142 bill and another $40 at the bar, I expected way better than this. This was supposed to be a special night and it ended up being subpar. Thanks a lot.

My wife and I visited as part of our 35th anniversary celebration. I had made a special request when making the reservation and they accommodated us perfectly, going above and beyond. My wife had the scallops and I had the fish soup and bacon wrapped sirloin. The food was excellent, Miranda's service was exceptional and the ambiance was great!!

Working out of town and a local me about this place. It was amazing. Food was delicious (beef tips and pierogis and tiramasu), bartender was top notch, ambiance was excellent.
Bill Matthews
Yummy! Exquisite food, fun atmosphere. Well worth the $$$. Would go back every day if I could!
Great food, friendly knowledgeable waitstaff, enjoyable ambiance. We've dined here many times and always had an excellent experience. Last night was extremely busy and was the first time I would consider it to be too noisy. Still - a wonderful meal!

We have eaten at 3 Birds many times over the years. Something was very off - March 26. They were out of lots of stuff, both alcohol for drinks and primary or secondary ingredients for items still on the menu. My prime rib was both pink and tough at the same time and just looked like a slab of beef on the plate. The waitress was forgetful and did not attempt to resolve the issues. What's up? This was extremely disappointing.

Everything was delicious! The chef is amazing!

Fine dining with exceptional service . Nice variety of menu choices Amazing food and ambiance

Average service. Meatball app was cold. Never saw a wine or beverage list. Not all of our party were seated with menus because they needed to be cleaned which we were appreciative of. We had five people at our table. Plates came out three then a few minutes later two. Not ideal
