Can’t say enough about the amazing service. Give these guys a star already. The hoster followed our experience all the way through our dinner. We spoke to the chef while sitting at the bar and our server predicted and anticipated our needs. Bravo, overall I had fun.

Horrible service, not at all considerate.

The best restaurant in the city!!!! Beef tartare was phenomenal! Always going to come back to this place every time I want to go out

We visited this place 3 times already, the last 2 one after another (Friday/Saturday) for our Niagara get away weekend, not much to say other than 5 stars everywhere, food is great, everything, service is equal to the food, always top notch, great attitude from everyone.
Just a great place.

All of it was great. Very friendly service. Cool atmosphere, happy customers and employees. Best Nashville Hot I’ve ever had.

We were here for dinner yesterday. Before I even start I want to emphasize that the food was delicious hence I can’t give a bad mark, because it would be unfair towards the chief and cooking team and the food would be the only reason to potentially come back. However, I’m beyond shocked with the service and staff behaviour, after going to thousands of restaurants I never faced anything similar before and I hope this will never happen again to anyone. I came with an infant in the stroller, and they seated us ( the restaurant was empty inside, and all tables were available) next to the open door/patio, it was past 8pm and it was super cold and windy. My baby and I got frozen. There was only one group of young people sitting out there on the patio, having blankets on them and drinking wine. After I politely asked both servers to close the door because I have an infant and we were in the direct wind or to move us somewhere else they both refused to do any of these things. We were out of words and wanted to leave immediately. I assumed they heard us talking and eventually closed the patio door. This made us so uncomfortable and it was borderline harassing to say something like that to any quest let alone to the mother with an infant. A restaurant like that can’t have servers without elementary customer service support, knowledge and empathy.

Furthermore, if the kitchen is exposed and many guys are cooking there with a lot of beards and hair they should be wearing appropriate cover/hats or something for that hair, it’s very unhygienic to witness that as a quest.

Food is delicious and I can’t say anything about it! However, whoever owns this place needs to work on these issues because they can mess up the impression hence people might not come back and I think that’s a super stupid reason to lose customers/funds. Choose your employees wisely or educate them on these things. It’s their job to make customers feel safe and comfortable, and it’s okay to open/close doors while serving customers in and out. That much effort is paid by giving them salaries and this rude attitude is beyond comprehension. I hope this doesn’t happen to any other person or parent.

Our server was so good. He gave us lots of attention, was patient and friendly. We’ll be back with bells on. So good, highly recommended.

Parking: Friday night game night so not much parking available. Used the parking garage’s top floor.

Best tartare I have ever had.
Carpaccio - killer, so different so fantastic
Bone marrow- coming back for more.
Truffle gnocchi- the creamiest, most delicious sauce I ever had.

The hipsters ... (servers)... we're the hippest there ever was. Ridiculously friendly, attentive and chill.
20/10 would recommend...

This is one of my favourite restaurants to dine in. The service is top notch & second to none. Each cocktail is carefully thought out, inventive , and inviting. The food is phenomenal. I highly recommend the Beef Tartare and the Truffle Fries, and of course the fried chicken. As an avid fried chicken lover, I know my friend chicken…. and Oddbird is one of the best. The fried chicken is crispy, sumptuous, and heavenly,
Thank you Ryan, Michael , and Stewart for always making my dining experience an absolute treat.

Food is amazing and delicious. You can’t get food like this at any other regular restaurant so prepare for all your senses to be embraced in this food experience. Amazing cocktails. Shoutout to Michael who is a wonderful server everytime.

A small, intimate space with incredible food experience. And always great wine selection as well.

Highly highly recommend!

Food sucks. Expensive burgers with processed cheese. Just doesn’t make any sense.
Gangster rap playing on speakers( not appropriate from my point of view).
Service was great though.

oddBird knocked it out of the park across the board. The vibe and atmosphere is of superb quality without being pretentious. The service was relaxed and amicable. Joined my good friend for a meal where we enjoyed oysters, beef tartare, cocktails/mocktails, fried chicken, an Oaklahoma Burger, and the golden-brownest potato wedges that have ever graced my presence. They have an effortless competency that serves banging dishes and leaves nothing to be desired. Go here now.
