RECENT REVIEW: BRUNCH
Scott A. on July 22, 2025
Whiskey Bird may be one of the most universally beloved restaurants on North Highland.
Anthony and Chad along with executive chef Joshua put together an exceptional mix of vibrant plates from all over the world.
Unlike some other restaurants, you are not squeezed tight to achieve additional table count.
The atmosphere is refreshing thanks to the friendly team and the artistry on the walls.
The brunch menu rivals that of any in the city. Where to start? That’s easy, okonomiyaki loaded Japanese street fries.
From there, dig into the Frittata Yada-Yada or the Bao Benedict for a perfect Sunday morning brunch.
In the summer, on a busy Sunday morning, the folks are clutching glasses of wine, waiting for their table and enjoying a lovely Sunday morning conversation. Have they dined at Whiskey Bird before? Yes. And they’ll be dining with Whiskey Bird again and again.
Highly recommended
