  • 3.5/5 *Cue Surfin' Bird music* Everybody knows that the bird is the word! Actually, there are no surfin' birds here (That I know of at least), but there are quite a lot of adorable tropical flighted ones at The Perch. I'll admit, I didn't really come here for the food or drink. I came here primarily because you get to sit outside and eat with cool looking feathered friends (#birdnerd). Since it was happy hour, we figured we'd order a few appetizers and take in the ambiance since I have had this place in my bookmarks list forever. All the appetizers on the happy hour menu are $8. We decided on sharing three of them: The soft pretzels with cheese dip, the pub tots, and green chile pork. While we were waiting for our food I walked around and said hi to all the lovely birds. The winged wonders come from AZ Exotic Bird Rescue and I think it's great that they are promoting rescue here. The birds themselves looked like they were very well taken care of and happy. The appetizers were a hefty size and looked great. You have your choice of three different sauce/topping combinations with the pub tots; I chose the jalapeno marmelade and ranch. The tots themselves were well cooked and lightly crispy. I liked the kick of heat from the jalapeno juxtaposed with the sweetness of the marmelade. I found that the tots became too salty for my tastes the more I ate them though. The same could really be said for the pretzels and pork. Everything was way too salty for me. As for the pretzels, they are served with beer cheese and the cheese had more of a chopped curd/cottage cheese texture rather than a melted fondue-like texture that I typically see with similar dishes at other restaurants. The green chile pork was probably the best tasting of the three items we got and I enjoyed the thick grilled tortillas they came with. It was initially was very watery though and hard to eat with the tortillas without chile-pork juice dribbling all over me as I ate it. Since we ate outside on the patio it's natural to have some bird mess on the tables every now and then but the table we sat at looked like the bird droppings had been crusted on the table for quite some time. Our hostess did wipe down the table before we sat down though. Our table was directly under a tree which provided some nice shade but also became a bird bomb site as some sparrows and doves decided to roost above us towards the end of our meal. We had a close call or two! Since they have a good selection of beer here it's probably worth it to come here for happy hour beverages but I probably wouldn't come here again solely for the food. I really do like how they combine bird rescue with a restaurant atmosphere though.
