Birt's is Exhibit A why I use Yelp when I travel. A nice surprise in Surprise, Birt's is a hidden gem in an otherwise gloppy food wasteland, which I would not have found without this service. Pass on nearby Tivoli, Lubby's, and the Burger King.
The setting is very pleasant, airy, with lots of books around to peruse. Go for the fresh salads, adequate portions, reasonable prices, decent house wines. It draws a reasonably busy local crowd, so expect a bit of a wait around lunch. Go again because it supports a local charity.
