Birdie's is an award-winning restaurant and wine bar in East Austin, known for its simple, seasonal, and daily-changing menu with American, French, and Italian influences. It operates primarily as a counter-service establishment, offering a prix-fixe dinner menu. The ambiance is described as upscale yet comfortable, though parking can be challenging and patio acoustics may be loud.
Customers consistently praise Birdie's for its fantastic, creative, and delicious food, excellent presentation, and professional, attentive service. The extensive and unique wine selection is also highly regarded. While some reviews mention slow lines for walk-ins and potential issues with patio acoustics, the overall experience is often described as a highlight and worth the price, with many perceiving it as Michelin-star quality.
The restaurant is located at the corner of 12th and Harvey in East Austin. It is open Tuesday to Saturday for dine-in. The dinner menu is prix-fixe at $79 per person, with a rotating selection of dishes that change monthly.
Visiting early on a weeknight (e.g., 5 pm) may help avoid long lines for walk-ins. Reservations are limited, so walk-ins are common but can involve significant wait times.
