   We enjoyed celebrating a birthday dinner with friends. We had a variety of starters and shareable plates. The beet salad and crab dip were delicious. I would recommend the bass, the pork chop and the smash burger. Our server, Taylor, was very thoughtful and kind, providing a great experience for us!

   Josh our server was outstanding! He was knowlegeable about the food and made good suggestions. We had the shrimp and grits, green beans, and blackberry peach crisp. The shrimp and grits had just the right amount of heat, the green beans were flavorful, and the crisp was to die for!

   Chelsea did an amazing job. The manager Lesha said they were a little short staffed, but honestly, we couldn’t tell. Overall is was a great experience and the gentleman playing music was awesome also !!

   You need more staff. Had a reservation. Was in Inglis with busted zipper so we’re at 50 degrees all evening. We were last priority all evening. Overall not a great experience. Get more staff. Make sure the igloo zipper works. The food and wine were fine.

   Beautiful restaurant and fabulous service from Chris. The burrata appetizer was wonderful. Problems with 2 of our 4 entrees, however, The pork chop was overcooked and dry, and the trout was definitely below par. The scallops were excellent. They were very attentive to our issues and promptly replaced the dinners we were disappointed in. We will go back due to their excellent customer service.

   We are from Atlanta and decided to go to Chattanooga for Thanksgiving. We were familiar with the Edwin Hotel and had experienced it as an upscale hotel with a great restaurant, wonderful lobby and fine art work. We were excited to book Thanksgiving dinner reservations at their Whitebird restaurant two weeks in advance. We were looking forward to an upscale Thanksgiving dinner at the lovely hotel. Prices were fixed at $84.00 per person. Not a problem! When we arrived, there was a bit of a wait as it seemed that the restaurant was understaffed. Understanding it was Thanksgiving, this was not an issue. This has nothing to do with the staff. The waitress was excellent and very accommodating. The issue was the food vs the value of what we paid and expected. While the food had good flavor, the entire setup was as if we were at a Golden Corral buffet. We opted for the prime rib. I have been to many carving stations in my life, but this prime rib was sliced so thin it was like it was roast beef deli sandwich meat from Publix. It was a see through sliver that you could pass light through. We had the option of (4) sides each and we received (6). Not a big deal. The chocolate pecan pie was straight out of a box. I would have thought that for $277.00 we would have had a wonderful experience. We were very disappointed, as we had looked so forward to this dinner. On the way back to our hotel, we passed Rodizio Grill, a Brazilian steak house, that we did not realize was open. For the amount we spent at Whitebird, we could have had unlimited meats at Rodizio. Whitebird, do better.

    I love the white bird, unfortunately the Thanksgiving meal was cold and the macaroni cheese was the only thing that tasted good. We had a lovely server and booth and as I said, typically, I love the restaurant. The regular menu is fantastic and I don’t want to discourage anyone Was a very unfortunate situation for our Thanksgiving. We were very much looking forward to it, but just being honest the food was cold. For example, the mashed potato was hard as it should’ve been creamy and delicious, but it was really , Turkey so dry…etc and then they ran out of one of the two desserts so I would say feel comfortable eating here anytime except perhaps on holidays, it might’ve been too many people, but we were extremely disappointed.
