    Let me begin with our waiter Jack. This young man was pleasant, attentive and had a warm spirit. Jack made dining fun and exciting. If you ever go to yard bird ask for jack. The manager Sophia, was checking on every table to ensure service was top tier. If you in the magnificent mile area in Chicago please stop by this establishment you will not be disappointed.

    We tried a few different food items and YUM! The berry French toast was as you’d expect, soft and sweet. So good! The tamales were pretty good. I preferred without the salsa provided but my husband liked it better with salsa. I had delta breakfast sammich and that was delish and filling. Served with hash brown potatoes which I don’t eat. Only thing is the dj starts at 2pm on Saturday, which is cool, but we met up with someone we hadn’t seen in a while and it’s hard to catch up over extremely loud music lol Thta was our mistake though. Fun vibe l, if you didn’t go there to talk, for sure.

    Great food. Service was lacking, which is a change from several months ago. Music was not consistent and volume went from good volume for dinner conversation to extremely loud.
