   Was going for a special night and the server couldn’t have cared less. Took over 20 minutes to be greeted at the table, another 15 to get a drink. Waiter never checked on us after food came, had to constantly ask for refills. Happily went somewhere else for dessert!

   I am gluten free for medical reasons. There were several items I could enjoy on the menu and the fried entrees were prepared in dedicated fryers. That said, the food was delicious! Service was extremely attentive and the manager stopped over twice to make sure my meal was enjoyable.

   18% already included-small print on bottom of menu. Guy took out order then we never saw him again….no clue how or why restaurants would ever do this. Gives zero incentive for people to go a good job…,Food is amazing though….

   Our reservation was at 10 am and the door was not unlocked until exactly 10 am. It was pretty cold outside. Everything else was perfect.

   Xavier was excellent, attentive and charming. The Convention Center was hosting a 20k+ conference and the Yardbird crew never missed a bea.

   Yardbird Table & Bar will will not make any changes to what's on the menu. I ordered a Petite Filet, which came with Mashed Potatoes. Since there was an option for a 16oz Rib Eye with Onion Rings, I asked for the Petite Filet to be served with Onion Rings instead of the Mashed Potatoes. I was told that no substitutions were allowed and I would have to purchase a side order of Onion Rings ... OK, I said. The server then returned to say they couldn't serve me a side of Onion Rings, so my choices were either the Petite Filet with no side, or a 16oz Rib Eye with Onion Rings. I didn't want to waste what would have been left over from a 16oz steak, so I chose the filet with no side. The filet was cooked perfectly and was delicious, but I ultimately went back to my hotel hungry. As we were paying our bill, the Manager came over and told us he needed our table to accommodate a large party that was coming in. We were already paying our bills and assured him he could have the table as soon as our server came back with the completed transactions. I thought this was a little rude, but we were done ... Overall, the food was delicious but the lack of flexibility on the menu was unacceptable. How hard would it have been to provide Onion Rings with my order? I won't be coming back here on my next trip to DC.

    Great service at the bar and good food portions. Drinks were okay. Was able to watch some sports at the bear without it being too loud (so still able to have a conversation). Food tasted good. Great place to use the INKIND app if you have not done so already. Would go back.
