The food and atmosphere was very special. Our waitress went out of her way to make recommendations and all were fabulous. The shrimp and grits were the best I have ever had.

Well I am not a fan of Southern Cooking and there was not any options for non Southern Cooking, thus gave the restaurant only 3 stars rating. However if Southern Cooking is what you like then you will find a great atmosphere and a very nice restaurant. The staff was excellent and being with friends we still had a great... More

If you can't stand happening places where the yuppsters are lined up 4-deep, don't go to Yardbird. In my view there are good reasons they're there -- to wish they weren't is like hoping to find an undiscovered perfect beach. Yardbird succeeds with updated southern dishes (though the fried chicken is much like my mother's -- which means old fashioned... More

Just had an amazing meal at Yardbird. It is a nice change of pace from the usual restaurants in South Beach. The decor was very unique with a focus on "barn chic". My friend had the white whiskey and watermelon cocktail and it was delish. My other friend had the peach one which was also wonderful and I had the... More

The finest fried food south of the mason dixon line is Yardbirds , a young spot near the beach the will put calories on you without a doubt . Its all very tasty but you will need to... More

Service was great! Drinks were very tasty, I ordered the watermelon drink (I highly rec. this one for people that are not fans of bourbon/whiskey) It was crisp and fresh! I think all the plates can be shared. We ordered the mamas chicken biscuits for an appetizer and the chicken and waffles with watermelon for the entree. Beware the portions... More

In Miami beach for a visit and wanted to get away from the poor quality food of ocean drive. This restaurant is an easy walk from ocean drive or Collins. The watermelon salad was delicious. The fried chicken and brick chicken were equally as delicious. And the strawberry shortcake was a great, light way to finish a meal. The server,... More

Loved this place! Went late night on a Sunday and the restaurant was almost full. We ordered two of their signature cocktails, amazing salads, and their sweet tea ribs. Great place!!
