Go here every year on my birthday for the vegan fried chicken w mash n greens. Best food on earth and I’m not even vegetarian. The chef is known for meat like dishes that are better than meat and he delivers everytime. Staff is wonderful. Great location in Harlem too.

Tucked away in Hamilton Heights is a broad and tasty cocktail menu in a space designed to get people to talk to each other. My favorite drinks were the - gone too soon with its fruit balance - and the violet Beauregard with its texture. Make sure to tell the bartender whether you like sweetness, spirits, herbs, or balance. That will help them recommend drinks to you.
From the food side, the macaroni and cheese was excellent. The deviled eggs were good but may heavy for those who don't know. The cornbread was a classic crumbly that worked with the butter. The fried pickles were tart and savory.
The steak was well-made and the fries were decent, albeit not quite as crunchy as I like.
The atmosphere is excellent, I wanted to stay long after my party left. If I lived nearby I'd go weekly. Excellent spot, excellent staff.

The food and cocktails were definitely tasty, albeit quite pricey for this neighborhood. The selection of cocktails was quite fun, but unfortunately they were out of some critical ingredients and we could order exactly what we wanted.
I loved the atmosphere of this place and they were able to easily seat a group of 5 at a large circular table in the back.
The one major gripe was the service - they were clearly understaffed and as such we had to wait an egregious amount of time to just order.

We ordered the sangria. Very underwhelming, just a bunch of fruit and a lot of ice for $48. I didn’t try the other drinks so I cannot rate that so that’s the reason why the 3 stars.
The food however was a bright spot. Very well seasoned and flavorful. Bird in hand Benedict was amazing.
If i could do it again I’d go for a different drink to balance the food.

Beautiful place and nice staff . Food was just lacking flavor. Ordered the deviled eggs 1/5 just very bland. The Mac and cheese was quite Literally the blandest thing I’ve ever at and it was dry. The truffle fries were solid and I wanna say it was a wasabi aioli that was really tasty

This place surprised me a little. The decor was very cozy and warm. It felt like going to a friend’s house. The burger was really good (if you eat bacon 🥓 add it & thank me later 😉).

Everything I ate and drank here was excellent! The Violet Beauregard cocktail was smooth, fruity, and flavorful without being overly sweet or sour. The Brussels sprouts appetizer (which is a very large portion) was served with ingredients that I would never think to add myself but which paired well and balanced one another. The BBQ jackfruit burger had lots of flavor (though I will say it fell apart on me like a sloppy Joe often does). And the truffle fries were the best I have ever had… crispy, Parmesan and deep truffle flavor. We happened to show up during trivia hour on Sunday night—if I lived in the area I would come back again for that!

Loved our experience here! Great service, unique and delicious dishes (panko fried deviled eggs!), very nice atmosphere, and addictive churchill old fashions!
Not too bad be better if they had signage outside... food was decent but not too quick to call Martha Stewart on but it works. The fried chicken and collard greens was decent for Northerners but great atmosphere and the music was on point.

My best friend treated me to a birthday dinner here and everything was perfect. The food was amazing. I had the best porkchop and Brussels sprouts I have ever eaten. The music and ambiance was very warm and inviting. The staff was accommodating and friendly. Best birthday dinner every! I will definitely be back to try other dishes. I have never had kale so light and airy and tasty. It almost tasted like a light potato chip. Yummy!! Oh wait.... I almost forgot the cornbreaddddddd! Delicious like cake! Loved everything.

When you are in Harlem looking for a place for lunch, I highly recommend Bird in Hand. On google maps it’s listed as a cocktail bar but it is a full service restaurant and bar. The food is delicious and nicely presented at reasonable prices. Most important is the excellent service by Megan. She’s friendly, helpful, and very professional. I have tried a variety of the menu items, all of which I enjoyed, but today the arugula salad (see picture) was amazing.
