Best Modern Southern American Restaurants in Old Irving Park

We always have a wonderful time at Yardbird. The food is consistently delicious. The service is top notch. The entire staff gives you service with a smile. Absolutely one of our favorite restaurants.

Highly recommend for brunch...creative comfort foods, fresh and delicious! We all loved our meals and the service was lovely and we were not rushed.

Food quality and choices are exceptional. Everything was unique with tons of flavor. The Gumbo, short rib, pork steak and mac and cheese are all divine. The service was mostly reasonable. The staff are all exceptionally nice but our drinks came after our food, we had to ask multiple times for refills. We ordered family style, which was great, but the food arrived and we had no individual plates to serve the food and had to flag someone down to get them. Overall I highly recommend it but for the price I would expect better attention to detail from the staff. I will go back because the food is that good!

Everything we had was amazing. The lamb chops were seasoned perfectly. The greens, creamed corn, and yams were some of the best I have ever tasted. The fried chicken was crispy and juicy on the inside. The best soul food meal I have had out in a while. Service was great too!
