I came here to celebrate my bachelorette outing with a few friends, and I must say, this restaurant exceeded my expectations in all the right way possible. The service was great, the food was utterly amazing, and the atmosphere was so refreshing. I accidentally stumbled across Redbird when I was searching for places that served brunch, and now I’m going to continue to come back as this turned to be one of my favorite eatery.
