   My husband and I sat at the bar. It was unusually quiet for a Thursday night. The bartender, Kendra, was engaging and on her game. I got the pasta and meatballs, which were excellent. I was told they recently changed their recipe and I highly recommend them. My husband got the sea bass and he thoroughly enjoyed it. He said he would get it again the next time.

   Staff was very professional and pleasant. Our meals were excellent. All issue is the lighting to get into the restaurant driveway it was very difficult to see in the dark

   We requested seating near the fireplace and got it without a problem Food we had was good, but menu options were limited, especially veggies. Would’ve liked more options. Waitstaff was wonderful and it’s a lovely place.

   Brunch cocktails and beignets were awesome. Our server was fun and pleasant. Iced coffee cocktails 10 /10 would recommend. Bread pudding wasn’t ready when we ordered it (we got there when the doors opened and had a reservation). It was available by the time we left. We had already ordered the French toast as a substitute so didn’t get to try the anticipated bread pudding. French toast was cold when it arrived, but would probably have been delicious had it been served hot. Compote was yum. Benedicts were delicious but we all remarked that the English muffins could have been more toasted- they were still white / completely soft (not browned/no crunch). We enjoyed our ladies brunch regardless and will return.

   We visit The Aviary every few months. The food is always delicious and we’ve never had a bad experience. Last night was no different. We went to celebrate our 23rd Wedding Anniversary. When we finished our dinner, our server came by with a piece of cake and said ‘Happy Anniversary!’. We did not tell anyone it was our anniversary and did not include it in the notes when we made our reservation. Initially, we had no idea how she knew. She eventually told us that the hostess had mentioned it. Apparently, we celebrated our anniversary at The Aviary a few years ago and they made a note of it! It was so nice of them to acknowledged our anniversary - especially when we least expected it.
