Best Southern American Restaurants in Design District

I took my girlfriend here for her birthday and was recommended this restaurant. First, I will start out with the drinks. I ordered a Moscow Mule and my gf ordered the eggnog martini and followed up with an expresso martini. The Moscow mule was ehh and my gf didn’t enjoy her eggnog martini (I liked it lol). The expresso martini was a step up from the eggnog martini for her, but where the drinks left a void, the food easily filled it. For appetizers, she ordered the deviled eggs and I order the smoked salmon. Both of the starters were so good. I really could have just ordered the salmon and been happy lol. For entrees, I ordered the YB Nashville Hot Chicken with Brussels at the side and she ordered the fresh catch of the day, which were crab cakes, with mashed potatoes and Mac and cheese. She absolutely loved the crab cakes and the mashed potatoes. The Mac and cheese, she wasn’t the biggest fan of. Overall, I would say the food was amazing. The design of the restaurant is easily one of our favorites to ever dine in. The interior design is so beautiful and enhances the dining experience. Oh!! And the birthday dessert was amazing! It was a cookies & cream ice cream scoop with three fried Oreos. It made me feel as if I was back home in Alabama for a second lol. We will definitely be back to dine again in the near future. Thank you Yardbird for helping make my girlfriend’s birthday one to remember!

We had an amazing experience! Service was amazing shout out to Selena (not sure if I spelled it correctly). She was so cool & made sure we had the best experience! We had a 8pm reservation and arrived a bit early and we waited all of 5 mins before we were seated earlier than our actual reservation time! Food came out in great time…and OMG….the food was superb! Everything we had was a 10! We will absolutely be back when we are in town again!

This was my second time going and it continues to get even better. The greeting you are given is so awesome and the attentiveness of our waitress was phenomenal. Another wonderful experience!

Prompt service, attentive wait staff. They had me cut i to mu steak to make sure it was right before they left the table. This was my 3rd time, and I will continue to go

We had a great dinner here on Saturday. We were sat at the bar and Octavius the bartender took care of us. He was so personable and funny and made our dinner a blast. I got the club and my spouse had the burger, both were so delicious. We loved our evening here.
