   Very standard food. Order a medium rare steak and frite and it was rare. Server was attentive. Cost of food was affordable, nothing was outstanding.

   Was disappointed they’ve separated from century hospitality and cut their menu in half . Food was way better before my pasta was very very average and the pizza was similar

   Made a reservation for a two top to celebrate a birthday, requesting a booth. No booth and no mention of a happy birthday (why ask when making the reservation then?). I didn’t realize when booking the oilers were playing and that they would be playing the game, it was so beyond loud in there you couldn’t hear the other person talk, we couldn’t even hear our server and I believe she used that as an excuse to stand on her phone by the bar all night. Our food only got checked on once it got brought to our table, no ask for drink refills, nothing until we asked for the bill. I asked for my steak medium, it came out very rare and that never got mentioned due to poor service. I was very disappointed when I picked the place based on their menus they have on their website to find out when I got there, those aren’t the correct menus and the one they give you is 1/5 of the size. There was a large group who was playing what felt like musical chairs and kept moving from booths to the back room and it didn’t seem like staff cared to make sure other patrons were being respectful to others. Overall the place came highly recommended and while it wasn’t the worst experience I’ve had, we wouldn’t recommend it to a friend or come back again.

   Service was not friendly or fast for how dead it was. We asked about specials and they said they had none. We inquired further as the website said they had buck a shuck on oysters and 10 dollar cocktails . The waitress said that they were under new management and they no longer have these specials. Despite the website still advertising them. They did honour the buck a shuck oysters but didn’t extend that to the cocktails. The oysters were not shucked properly and had multiple shell pieces in the oysters. The deviled eggs were just boiled eggs with maybe mayo on top of liquid yolk. The bone marrow steak tartare was served on a hallowed out bone sans bone marrow. Brussel sprouts were dope though. When clearing the table the server spilled a little water from the oysters on our friends cross body bag and then after acknowledging it, continued with clearing the table and spilt a bunch more of the water all over our friends leg. She did apologize again but should’ve just cleared that in the first place before continuing to clear the rest of the table. We booked this reservation for our friend’s birthday because it was advertised with the specials but also live music on Thursday night which there was no live music. On the reservation we did also put that we are coming for a birthday. Overall it was a very poor experience, if the place is under new management it’s important to at least update the website. And when booking the reservation on OpenTable it was still advertised as Live Thursday with all the specials mentioned above. Very disappointed we picked Birdog to celebrate our friends birthday but I guess the yolks on us.

   Doors were locked and the restaurant was closed. $80 in Ubers down the drain, not to mention a very disappointed wife. Will never be back or recommend.

   Had high expectations for this restaurant but they fell short. Felt the 17$ appetizer of roasted cauliflower was not worth the value. Chicken entree was good however they were out of a specific dessert and then had no ice cream for another dessert. Service was minimal and slow. Was hoping for a better experience.

   Birdog has been on our radar for some time. We went to the venue before seeing a concert at Roger's. The food and drinks were great with the food being priced quite well. Drink prices were pretty standard. The service overall was good.

   The food was great, the service was amazing, but I learned not to go to the restaurant on a oilers night unless you want to watch the oilers game, a little too loud for my taste
