Welcome to Strange Bird

“ I love Strange Bird. It's a laid back place with delicious food. The thing I love most is you can make anything vegan. I usually have the same server and I love B so much! I always get the gyoza which is seasoned so well and has a little spice, it comes vegan already. Then I'll do the vegan wings with the sauce on the side, it keeps them really crispy. The curry sauce is my fav. I even get some for my tonkontsu which I of course order vegan and add mushroom to. Don't have pics because I get to work as soon as it hits the table. Honorable mention: lemonade The parking lot is small, so you may have to park on the street because they're typically busy. So much so, we showed up at 5p (opening) and there was a line. You can't order ahead of time. You have to go in to order takeout. But that only means it's going to be fresh. ”

“ It was my second visit to Strange Bird. I was there for drinks with friends. It was Saturday so the place was very busy, but they took my name and we were able to get a table in 10-15 minutes. Our server was very nice. Even though we had more people coming and had to ask for a big table, he accommodated us with a smile. Mocktails have been my new favorite and I tried the Piña colada with no alcohol. It was so refreshing and delicious. They have such unique drinks and it's a lot of fun. I love their interior too. ”

“ We had the shrimp rolls -- incredible 9/10 We had the gyoza -- delicious 8/10 We had the bao buns -- INCREDBILE 9.7/10 And then I had the shoyu ramen and it was on of the best things I have ever eaten. 10/10 Please try this place if you're in the area. We lucked out and got there around 5:30 before it got crowded and had a wait. ”

“ I really like the tropical vibe here with the decorations, lighting, and music. There are two different sections for inside seating as well as a separate patio for outdoor seating. The parking lot is small but you can park on the street. The service was friendly and inviting. We ordered a couple of their very unique cocktails. The Scorpion Reef and the Zombie were refreshing and strong. They have a limited menu. We had the Gyoza for our appetizer and they were like any Gyoza I've had but the Tonkotsu ramen was delicious, full of flavor and the ingredients all worked well together. My friend had the Wings which she said had a kick and was great but they only had carrots for a side and she wished there were more options to choose from. This is a cool spot and I plan to come back. ”

“ Hands down our favorite place for oysters in the city: the secret is in the shucking! And the mignonette sorbet is to die for! Topped it off like a mermaid with the Pearl Diver cocktail and I felt like I was on the other side of the world. Other than their amazing oyster variety and flavor, Strange Bird is some of the best food I've had in awhile. Perfect for a date night, it's a unique spot in a historic area of the city. No reservations to prepare for a wait and go visit the neighboring pub or handmade leather shop. Lots of dedicated parking but it did get busy on a Sunday. The interior is photo worthy mid century tiki but the patio as adorable right along the scenic trail. Their best ramen is the shoyu ramen - out of this world flavor simmered for 8 hours. Every thing is done with quality. I'll be back again and again (and will probably join the oyster club too) ”
