   Excellent meal. Service was great. Thank you, Jack! The host/manager was really nice too. Full bird for $28? Awesome value.

   Me and my girlfriend went here for Valentines Day, reserving was easy. There was readily accessible parking right outside, our waiter was really nice and accomodated some of the concerns we had for allergies, and the food was worth the money. We ordered the Smash burger and the Caesar salad with fried chicken, both were outstanding. Great spot and would go there again.

   Steven was exceptional for my first (and certainly not my last!) visit to Shy Bird south Boston. He helped my dear sister and I pick out everything from drinks to the chicken and sauce flight as well as a salad selection. Thank you Steven for kicking off the weekend with us.

   Had a great experience at Shy Bird Southie for my nephew’s birthday. Everyone enjoyed their meal and the service was great. The burger, the Caesar salad, and the fries were all delicious. Our food arrived quickly and the dessert was also fantastic!

   Interactions with staff were all great. Good vibe (lighting, music, lively) Food quality did not match price for me.

   I’m surprised at all of the 5 star reviews. It’s really just ok. I would not run here. Got the white sweet potato miso appetizer. Presentation was a 2 and way too much miso. Martini was very good. That was about it.

   Great vibe and friendly neighborhood restaurant. It's become quite the local favorite for us since we've moved to the neighborhood. The staff is terrific and always make us and our guests feel welcome. They are also very good with dietary restrictions and seem happy to accommodate.

   Service was not great but food was excellent! We were sat at a very tiny table for 6 people so we had to take all the table decor off. Servers all seemed very confused and our food came out at different times. Everything we had food wise though was amazing
