Mockingbird is a charming restaurant, known for its beautiful art and building. The menu offers delicious and comforting dishes, such as crispy Brussels, biscuits with chorizo gravy, fried green tomatoes, and pork tenderloin. The restaurant excels in handling dietary allergies and offers great value for large portions. The shrimp and grits and pork belly are also highly praised, along with the biscuits and various vegetables that come with the entrees, making each meal feel complete. The drinks menu is delightful, featuring options like the tequila mockingbird and orange boulevardier, with thoughtful zero-proof choices as well. Desserts, including the mud pie in a jar and banana pudding, are highly recommended and perfect for sharing. The service is consistently rated as excellent, with friendly staff providing attentive care. The cozy yet lively atmosphere makes it a popular spot in Charlottesville for various occasions, including special celebrations. Limited parking is available in the back, but the overall experience is well worth it.
