The service was all around outstanding. The host, the waitress, the cooks that walked by and checked on us were all so kind.Now, when I say this food was the best food I’ve ever had, you’re just going to have to see for yourself but I’ll rant for a minute. The ramen was absolutely amazing! The dumplings, perfect. The sweet WINGS were seriously the best wings I’ve ever had in my life. Lastly, the drinks were top notch, unique, and fun!To top it all off the music was awesome and was at a volume level that allowed my table to comfortably talk while also randomly jamming out. 10/10 I can’t wait to go back and eat everything all over again. Next time I’m getting the oysters too!Special shout out to Tito for the amazing food and hospitality!

We also got a flight of rum, which wasn't on the menu, but they put together a fun and unusual selection for us. We had oysters and teriyaki wings, which were both top notch. The wings exceeded my expectations with a house made teriyaki sauce and dill ranch dressing. So yummy!Parking: Parking lot in front, plenty of spots when we were there.

The food is consistently outstanding, featuring a diverse range of dishes that appeal to various palates. My favorite picks include the Gomae salad and the Toga Blood wings, which deliver a burst of flavor without overwhelming spiciness. While the ramen is delicious, I generally steer clear of it due to my sensitivity to sodium in the broth. The cocktails are a definite highlight—always creative and fun—crafted by bartenders who put on an impressive display while mixing. The staff is consistently excellent, contributing to the warm and enjoyable vibe of the restaurant. Strange Bird offers a variety of seating options, including indoor, outdoor, and at the bar, making it a flexible choice for different dining preferences, and it's kid-friendly, too. For oyster enthusiasts, the happy hour specials from 5 to 6 PM and all day on Sundays are not to be missed. Just keep in mind that prices can be a bit on the higher side, especially if you're indulging in cocktails; expect to spend over $30 per person for a full experience. Strange Bird perfectly combines delicious food, vibrant drinks, and a captivating atmosphere that makes every visit memorable.
