Because of the low price, I felt that their use of ingredients were not the best or they did not fully exploit their ingredients to their full potential. The first course was the best among all, dessert was also good. Reasonable price for their wine listings. The environment was very loud, but was expected for restaurant week. The servers were attentive for such a busy place.

Started with a selection of three cheeses (perfectly described by our charming and knowledgeable server), followed by the best mussels I'veever had. Rutabaga tagliatelle and duck breast also delicious. Sourdough bread with miso butter a must-have (if you're intobread of course). As others have noted, portion sizes are a little small, which is generally expected for such a fine diningexperience. I did think the duck breast could have been a little more substantial.. they were nice enough to split the portionin half for my date and I, but at $42 there was only about 3-4 bites for each of us. My only minor criticism. Vanilla pavlovafor dessert rounded everything out. Great music selection I should add ???????? Don't miss a near perfect culinary experienceat Blackbird.

We had the tasting menu, and I will admit that a couple courses were out of my comfort zone, but it was enjoyable and a bit adventurous. Definitely a treat.
