    We enjoyed everything about Birba. It was a nice night and most of the seating is outside under trees and twinkling lights with many heaters that made us feel comfortable. The tricolor salad was tasty, and the arancini with cheese sauce was the best! My family also loved the crispy eggplant in red sauce. We ordered 2 pizzas and the best was salami with honey. Would love to come back here anytime!

    Incredible experience at Birba. Salads were phenomenal, pasta was fresh and delicious. Cocktails + wine list on point. My daughter loved the kids cheese pizza. Desert topped it all off.

    It was pouring outside, yet we were so comfortable on the patio with the right amount of space heaters! All of the servers were taking the weather in stride- a total team effort! Our food was delicious- the rigatoni with house made sausage incredible, my creamy black pepper tagliatelle perfect! We also had a single Nonnas meatball that was delicious! Solid cocktails.

    Some of the best service I’ve ever experienced. Good was great. Roasted chicken really exceptional and the tricolors salad was better than it had to be. How do they get those garlic chips so crispy!

    As always, the pizza was delicious! It took a while for our server to acknowledge us, but once our order was taken all progressed well. Would love to see an expanded draft beer selection.

    Food is delicious with great service! All seating is outside, so bring layers if the evening is chilly!

    Birba's menu is limited but each dish we sampled was very good. The fired squash blossoms were outstanding: a crisp tempura batter over a blossom stuffed with recotta. We also enjoyed the tricolore salad accented with crisp fried garlic slivers and the rainbow beet salad. Our main courses came from the pasta menu; both were excellent. We had a very knowledgeable server who recommended the olive oil cake, which was beautifully presented and more than enough for two of us. Wine pours were generous and not expensive.

    The bar service was great for a pre dinner drink but our pastas lacked flavor and came out cold. Our server wasn’t very personable and we did not feel like we were well taken care of- especially after making note that it was my husbands birthday dinner in the notes for the reservation.

    this is yet another restaurant that is understaffed, the staff they have is untrained, and the manager ill equipped to handle complaints. The patio is so tightly furnished with tables and heat lamps that it is beyond difficult to navigate. Bathrooms dirty. Food is adequate, but a handful of spaghetti for 18 dollars is ridiculous. being told by the waiter that a 25 dollar glass of veuve clicquot was not flat and that I should use a straw to stir up the bubbles was laughable! as you can tell this is not a good recommendation.
