| - A new addition to the SE, Blackbird has a great interior, I love the deep blues, lots of seating (although often all filled up, but good for them!). Have had a few hit or miss experiences here. First visit was good, half price wine on Thursday - can't complain about that and enjoyed the Autumn Salad, I added chicken to it which they served on the side in a separate bowl which was a bit odd but I dumped it on top and it was a good salad and very filling.
Another visit was good for the most part, ordered the fried pickles and a few other appies which were all good, hubs ordered the fried chicken sandwich which came out raw, very undercooked but management dealt with it properly, re-made the sandwich and took it off the bill which was appreciated. Oh well it happens, it's a huge piece of chicken!
Visited again and ordered the fried chicken dinner, which hubs said was good, everything was cooked well which was good, I ordered just a caesar salad and it wasn't great, way to much parmesan on top (hard to believe in a thing like to much parmesan but this was excessive) but it was the dressing that was really off, it tasted just like tuna. I think they make the dressing in house which is awesome and I know it includes anchovies but this was very fishy and no garlic or tang at all, could have easily just been a bad batch or not stirred enough?
A few hit or miss visits but they haven't been open that long yet, they do serve brunch which I'd like to try and their bar snacks and nachos look awesome so I will definitely be back to try a few more things and figure out the winners on the menu!
