| - Let's just stop to take a moment to appreciate the fact that Yardbird has some amazing chicken. Like, absolutely amazing. After making a reservation for my boyfriend's birthday dinner, we hit Yardbird on a Saturday night. It was packed and rightfully so.
We were instantly greeted and seated. The decor is like... modern southern? If that's a thing? Anyway, it's super cute. We were in the area with the mason jar lights, which made my inner crafty girl want to come out for an at home project.
For some reason we didn't anticipate that the dishes were large enough to share. So started with the Mac and Cheese then each ordered a chicken dish. He got the regular fried chicken and I go the Chicken, Watermelon and Waffles. First off, that Mac and Cheese was heavenly. It was served with bread crumbs on top and had excellent flavor. The watermelon that came with mine was marinated with some sort of spicy goodness, so each bite was a spicy bite followed by the sweetness of watermelon. Then the waffles are cheddar waffles, and were amazing dipped in the bourbon maple syrup or the hot sauce. But the chicken is the real winner. It was SO GOOD. I also got their bourbon blackberry lemonade which did not tasty boozy at all and I could have easily had like 5 of them.
If you can, go to Yardbird. It is amazing and you will not be disappointed! Depending on your appetite, you miiiiiight want to share the chicken and order several sides to share. Stop what you're doing and make a reservation, because you won't regret it!
