    Really delicious food but limited menu. We sat outside and it was a nice ambience with lights and appropriate social distance. The street was quiet for a Friday night. Really pleasant experience and good service!

    Terrible. Now I know why they charge $25 per person if you cancel because if I had asked anyone who had been there, they would have warned us. Drinks were tiny and overpriced and wine was gross. Cheese plate was laughable. 3 hunks of mediocre cheese with a bowl of bread chunks. No fruit, nuts or any accompaniments a standard cheese plate would have. We asked for 2 burgers and fries cooked medium. The server (if you can call her that) said that they cook all burgers at the same temp but it would still be pink. There was ZERO pink and ZERO taste. My friend did not get the fries with her burger and my husband did not get the green salad he ordered with his pork. Fries came out later and they charged her for a full portion and the salad came out as my husband's dessert since he had finished his meal by then. The rigatoni looked and tasted like they had scraped all the leftovers off of previous diners' plates and reheated with a teaspoon of sausage added. No comps, no apologies but with the 20% service charge already included, the server doesn't really have any reason to care. Never again.

    Hungry Pigeon was great. Service was kind and incredibly sweet. Food and wine was pretty good. Everything was just a tad expensive. But the ambiance more than made up for it.

    I wish the menu had more choices, but the food we did order was very tasty. If they continue to update the small menu with new choices, I will be sure to return!

    First time to this charming restaurant and we were so glad we chose to go! The watermelon salad and veggie ratatouille were so original, wonderfully flavorful and visual art! The staff were so helpful and friendly. Felt I’d known them for some time when we left. I so recommend you go!

    Excellent food although the menu is very limited, maybe just because of Covid-19. Nice enough setup for outdoor seating on the side street.

    Even with a somewhat limited menu during the time of COVID, Hungry Pigeon never disappoints. Excellent outside seating situation.
