Ate here to celebrate a birthday & we overall had a great time. The booth dragging was bit troublesome. As I'm short so it was hard to sit up in the both area. The burger was pretty standard but the appetizers are where it shined at. We also had the biscuits too and it was TOO good! Service was pretty standard & there were no complaints. Overall, may return here again

A hip spot downtown that's a bit overpriced like the rest of Denver's food scene. Server was attentive. Everything was good. All of the eggs' temps were on point.

Everything here was soooo good, including the service and drinks! The ambiance was very classy and comfortable. Perfect for a birthday dinner, I love how they gave a fried Oreo dessert to our birthday boy and held our cake for us. My favorite thing was the Texas Twinkie and my eggnog martini. Honorable mention to the blackberry bourbon lemonade!! The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because some of our chicken wings weren't fully cooked.

I visited Yardbird from Louisiana & I was extremely impressed with the entire experience. The atmosphere was wonderful, the food-- delicious, & the service was SPECTACULAR. From the hostess kindly seating us before our actual reservation, smiling passing employees, to the waitress. Everyone was pleasant! My waitress, Asia was phenomenaI! Very attentive & knowledgeable of the menu and how the food was cooked. I have a deep love for food and to share that with someone who can provide insight on the foods and how they were prepared, had my mind blown. I truly enjoyed the experience. TOP TIER! Give Asia a BONU$!!! Even the people at the table next to us raved about her service.

Yardbird has such a good vibe! I love the outdoor seating and the fun "backyard" hangout area! Came for happy hour and the offerings are good and for great prices. Both the drinks and the food are a hit. The menu is fun and the space is awesome!

Is That Your Chick(en)? Y'all, lemme tell you - if you're in Denver and got a craving that only some soul-filled comfort can cure, Yardbird is where it's at. Their fried chicken? Crispy, seasoned just right, and juicy enough to make you close your eyes and give a nod of respect to whoever's back there doing the Lord's work. The macaroni and cheese? Ooo-wee, it's the kind of creamy, cheesy, baked-to-perfection goodness that warms your soul. And don't sleep on those chicken sliders - they're packed with flavor and go down way too easy. Now, let me put you on game: the bacon jam devil eggs? Listen, they're next-level. Sweet, savory, and smokey with that little crunch that'll have you grabbing seconds before you've finished the first. They're to die for, no cap. Now, I gotta keep it real with y'all - not everything hit like it should. The fried green tomatoes? Nah, it wasn't giving what it was supposed to give. Bland, no flavor, just vibes, and not the good kind. We tried it, we sent it back, and didn't look back. Stick to the chicken and those devil eggs, fam. That's where the magic happens. Don't say I didn't put you on.

Run across this place after going to the rivian dealership. Have a great happy hour from 4:00 to 6:00 the staff was nice great feel to the place and they seated us rather quickly. Wings 4/5 Deviled eggs 5/5 Okra 3/5 BBL 4/5 Oreo 3/5 The wings were full of flavor, nice and crisp, especially with the dipping sauce. The deviled eggs were amazing, some of the best I've ever had. The okra was nice and crisp but a little too much salt for my liking. The adult beverage was full of flavor with nice & heavy pour. The Oreo dessert was smooth on the inside. Nice crunch on the outside would have liked more flavor to the breading, but the ice cream was really good. I would definitely come back. I'd like to try the burger and get more deviled eggs, the cornbread that the people at the table across from us looked and smelled amazing.
