Birdsong San Francisco Reviews from The Last Year
Everything's so delicious! Defiantly the highlight of my SF
Everything's so delicious! Defiantly the highlight of my SF trip. I also love the decor in the kitchen. It's very cute place for dating
Phenomenal in every way! From the moment we walked in the
Phenomenal in every way! From the moment we walked in the door, the presentation of our table, the spacing between tables, the attentiveness of the staff, the presentation of the courses - absolutely everything. A wonderful evening spent with my other half enjoying what we love most - beautiful food.
Birdsong was phenomenal.
The food, presentation, service, attention to detail, decor, friendliness -- everything was either superb or wonderful. We came here for an anniversary dinner and they made it very special for us, including a special dessert, Polaroid pic and card. The restaurant ambience is lovely, we enjoyed that the dining room lighting was soft but not dark, open but comfortable. The servers are attentive without smothering, the vibe and atmosphere is vibrant yet classy. The long multi course menu was simply phenomenal, we had trouble picking out our top favorites, let alone a singular best. I really appreciated that we were full by the end, but not overstuffed, as can happen at some two-star restaurants with a long menu.
I dined here on Saturday 2/24/24 and I think they were
I dined here on Saturday 2/24/24 and I think they were having an off night because dinner service was a bit chaotic. The food actually didn't speak to me unfortunately and I found everything to be a bit underwhelming for a 2 Michelin star restaurant. I didn't feel wowed or impressed by most of the dishes and left feeling a bit disappointed. Given this is just my experience of the dinner service and I'm sure it's a great restaurant but on the night I went, I was left feeling let down. I think there was a lot of new staff as the dinner service was chaotic and they seemed to struggle with communication, serving, and getting dishes out. My favorites of the evening were the sea urchin cream puff, bbq carrot, old beef, and the gooseberry dessert. My partner and I found the remaining dishes a bit lackluster in comparison to our other Michelin star dining experiences. Their proteins were all cooked well and the temp was great on them. Except my squab pithivier was a bit on the cold side. For a restaurant with an emphasis on dry aging and fermenting I expected more vibrant/exciting flavors but this was not the case in my experience. My actual favorite thing of the entire evening was the chanterelle mushroom accompaniment that came with the beef. It had a beautiful char and flavor to it. I typically love open kitchen concepts and jump at any and every opportunity to dine at the chefs table/counter because I love watching the meticulous work of the chefs creating intricate dishes. But the energy of the dinner service was very tense and it actually made my dining experience a little uncomfortable. I would rate my overall dinner experience a 2.5/5 stars, the little gift of their homemade lamb jerky to take home was delicious and which bumps it up to 3 stars.
Came here with a party of 6 under one of the party member's
Came here with a party of 6 under one of the party member's recommendation. We're huge foodies and heard great things about Birdsong. While the neighborhood was not the best, when we arrived, the service was extremely accommodating and kind and they treated us like we were celebrities. The food was amazing the day of, with presentation out of this world. Little did we know our bowels and bodies would come to reject all the seemingly perfect dishes and deprive of us life. The next three days, we experienced insane FOOD POISONING and didn't even have the capability to leave our houses and even more so the bathroom. For a Michelin starred restaurant, we expected better and ended up filing an email asking if they would do an investigation. However, they thought we were lying and essentially dismissed our complaint and didn't conduct future investigation. So if you want to pay a high price for a stomach version of Russian Roulette, go to Birdsong.
The four stars take into account the $400+ price tag after
The four stars take into account the $400+ price tag after taxes, no drinks. Birdsong was a lovely experience, and unlike many tasting menus, does not shy away from giving you the stars of the show. Apart from one carrot dish and dessert, the meat or seafood was front and center, cooked perfectly and in enough amount to truly enjoy. The restaurant itself is beautiful and the service is impeccable without being overbearing. Food was maintained at an extremely high quality throughout and its easy to see why birdsong has two michelin stars. Some areas of improvement-- menu progression could have been better. There is a parade of extremely savoury courses in the middle that was a bit tiring. I think there could be more salt or spice especially in the sashimi course and the lamb course, both were slightly too bland. My favorite course was the abalone chawan mushi, which was soooo delicious and the one course that totally blew my mind. If you love meat and seafood, highly recommend checking this one out.
Came here for a birthday celebration and we had a wonderful
Came here for a birthday celebration and we had a wonderful time. The location was super shady though, right across the street was a homeless encampment, and we walked to the restaurant so felt a bit unsafe while walking there. We also arrived before the restaurant opened so we had to stand outside for a while before they opened their doors. We sat right by the kitchen, so we were able to watch the chefs prepare all the food! I won't go too into all the dishes, but I really enjoyed the experience overall. Lots of unique dishes and small bites. I think the dish that stood out to me the most was the bread with caviar on stop. It was super tasty. The presentation of everything was wonderful and unique. The whole experience was a journey through different flavors and types of meat, so really enjoyed our experience here!
I have many things to say about each dish, but rather than
I have many things to say about each dish, but rather than ramble, I'm just going to keep this on the shorter side and try to capture my impression of each dish in a 2nd-grade-level sentence (which I admit does not do these courses justice, so I recommend going in and trying them) The trout sequence was astounding holy cow The cream puff was friggin insane; be sure to really savor this one bc there's so much to savor in this one bite. It's literally probably the most flavorful bite of anything I've ever had in my life. It also helps that these particular flavors (of uni, butterscotch, and fermented shiitake) not only pair very well together, but are also very well tailored to my most preferred palate. The black cod was insane, like where can you find cod with skin grilled so perfectly? The corn bread & caviar was to die for The abalone was very good The dry aged carrot was wow Did I mention the squab? How many dishes have I said I'd be willing to eat every day for the rest of my life? I don't remember, but this is also definitely one of them. I almost don't want to spoil it, but god that accompanying fig is one helluva fig It's 11:50 and I'm tired so I apologize to the dessert sequence to which this brief outro will be of little service to, but listen to me on this one when I tell you this ain't just Dreyer's chocolate ice cream or granny smith's everyday Apple, thyme, and quince. Friggin love their desserts Oh yea I forgot to mention the old beef. I LOVE the old beef I feel like their menu has gotten better since I've last gone in 2022. I'm loving the winter season and Birdsong has been one of my highlights of it. Huge shoutout to the amazing team that makes this all possible. Oh yea and the ambience. I could write an essay on how beautiful and well-designed their dining room is. How it all appropriately highlights the kitchen and its chefs as the star of the show, provides both intimate and immersive seating options, and wows you with its idk it's just really beautiful okay I wish Yelp didn't have that 10 photo limit Love birdsong! Probably my favorite restaurant in SF right now. If I were an inspector I'd give them a third star. Cheers!
How do you describe a Masterpiece? Birdsong is just that.
From a detailed tasting menu customized to your dietary requirements that you can specify when booking. This place is hard to get into so pre planning is a must. When you arrive they review your tasting menu. The beverage selection was wide and they have zero proof options that match the mastery of the menu to come. I must mention the staff. As you are welcomed into the seating area you have full view of the kitchen. All staff and cooking areas are on view. They move in a smooth way as if a ballet scene is to unfold and it actually does in orchestrated synchronization for four people service you have a plethora of staff. If you ever wanted to know what elegant dining and interactions with staff are, this is the place. The staff are impeccable. The tasting menu was delightfully arranged to offer trios of tasting experiences to solo standouts. The cascade of the flavor and partnership of choices for each setting and the attention to detail is beyond anything I can ever imagine . With each setting you get place settings that fit the dish from chopsticks, dining ware , and many hand held food experiences. The food was never ending. I was dizzy with delight and hypnotized if the cascade of each selection until after 3 hours the final act was revealed and was so delightful it deserved a standing ovation. I had tow settings modified due to shell fish , so my menu was customized to me. I feel I went to another world I have never seen and I will always dream of going back to again.
Full of ideas, but they fall way short of 2 Michelin Star
Full of ideas, but they fall way short of 2 Michelin Star expectations. Nothing tasted bad, but for the price point (similar to French Laundry) so not worth it. Will not go back or recommend. Biggest gripe was the complete lack of heat, acid, spice, herbs or textures. Everything was soft and gooey. One-note. Including the much hyped cornbread with caviar. The BBQ carrot was nice, but it's just a carrot. No garnish, no other textures or flavors. Just a carrot. Abalone had many components but it was soft custard layered with a soft aspic and soft sweetbreads. Abalone flavor so strong couldn't taste anything else. Hen of the woods mushrooms were just that. Mushrooms in mushroom broth. The focus of this meal was all about where the items were sourced. My read is that these are young chefs that got lost in their ideas and have either forgotten or overlooked how important it is to have variety and textures on a plate. Even for a tasting menu. Been to a lot of comparable places and this was never such an issue. Positives: Good pacing and was full by the end. Everything was well cooked. More downsides: * Music did not match vibe (upbeat 80s top 40 radio) * Decor was not interesting, forgettable, bland, kinda like the food * Wine program is not designed for by the glass or pairings, they expect you to buy a bottle or half bottle * I could do a whole review on just the plating and serving ware alone. It was all over the place. No theme or consistency. At this level, plating should be like a fashion collection where everything belongs with each other. Some items were wood, others ceramic, others glass. Came across as a hodgepodge of randomly picked grey and beige pieces. * Plating was lackluster. Not much to look at. Most items were a single color.
This is probably one of my top favorite restaurants.
Definitely top 10. I loved everything on the menu even things I normally don't like (squab and lamb) were amazing. While it was not super difficult to get a reservation, we did visit the restaurant on a weekday with the first seating. If I'm back in the area, I will definitely come back.
In my opinion there are many instances where I enjoy meals
In my opinion there are many instances where I enjoy meals at 2 Michelin Star restaurants over 3. Birdsong is easily one of my top meals, very much enhanced by the ambiance and service. It was my birthday so I was very excited to eat with a view of the kitchen and the cooking hearth, and got to see each course being prepared with precision. Each course got me excited for what would come out next. The foie gras cream puff and the cornbread and caviar dishes were easily my favorite of the night. We opted to get a half bottle of a red and a white to compliment certain courses instead of a full wine pairing, which definitely felt like good choice. We finished our meal with a pour over coffee (which came with a warm chocolate cookie), and were surprised by make your own sundae bar for dessert for my birthday. Overall a very special meal and we would definitely come back in the future.
Perfect date night
From the welcoming reception upon entering to the heartfelt farewell at the end of the night this was a fabulous experience. The service was at a level you would expect for a 2 star restaurant. They were attentive, engaging, worked as a coordinated team and gave the feeling of a fine Swiss watch or a world class ballet. Bravo! But your there for the meal and it did not disappoint. Clearly the chef loves to use imagination and skill when it comes to cooking. Each course was an experience unto itself. Meticulously executed, and served with a beautiful explanation of what you were getting ready to experience. I enjoyed every course, some more than others but not because the cooking was off (it wasn’t) but rather the menu is eclectic enough there is something for all. A few truly stood out, corn bread with caviar, build your own lettuce wraps with quail, the abalone custard. The wine parings were not at all what you would expect (sake, beer, rosin wine) but they worked and sincerely complimented the dish they were served with. The som was engaging, explained each wine and answered all of our questions. We never felt he was rushing us to move on to the next guest. The restaurant is cozy, with a big open kitchen that matches the seating area. From the shouts of Yes Chef! To the fanning of the coals in the stone grill it was quite the show. We live in the city and didn’t really know what to expect but it delivered an experience on par with other ultra fine dinning in the area such as Atelier Crenn and Single Thread. Pro tip. Uber to and from.

Great Service - amazing dinner!!
Read about the site in NYT and bought a reservation at Mother Wolf in LA 2 days later. Worked great and the food was amazing!!!
Worked perfectly!
Got the reservation (that I couldn't get anywhere else) and was able to entertain a group of friends at the infamous Bern's Steakhouse.
Got into Nobu Malibu
Wonderful! My parents are visiting and we have wanted to go to Nobu Malibu for years. I tried getting a reservation myself but it was next to impossible. So glad I was able to buy a reservation on appointment trader for a decent price!
Very easy
Was very hesitant going into this experience but am glad to say that it worked out very well ! will definitely use appointment trader in the future
Fabulous Lunch
I was veeeeeerry skeptical that this would work, particularly at a restaurant as hard to get into as Nobu Malibu, and it was perfect! We had lunch outside on the patio and it was fabulous!
Great reviewer team
Just wanted to take a second to shout out the reviewer team. Even though they probably review hundreds of listings and bids a day, they still take the time to leave great comments and respond relatively quickly. Thanks!
Incredible
I got a reservation to Don Angie, which I've been trying to book for weeks! I am very happy with this service.
Best platform out there!
Super simple, easy, and fast to secure reservations for hard-to-get restaurants and locations!
This app is life changing
This app has opened my world up to so many wonderful new experiences I would never have the chance to have without access to this awesome app! 10/10!
Worked perfectly
Was a little nervous at first but was pleased to see that the booking went through flawlessly.
Highly recommended.
Success on Short Notice
Was able to snag an indoor table at Don Angie through an absolutely seamless worry-free process.
Worked perfectly, thank you!
This is a crazy holiday season in NYC and I was very pleasantly surprised to see that AppointmentTrader works! Will be using again!
Worked flawlessly!
Worked so well! I was a bit nervous, but everything went very smoothly. purchased the reservation, and got into the restaurant seamlessly.
Love this app!
So glad I came across this app :)
Quick table in Miami
I didn’t have my hopes high as it was a party of 4. In 24 hours I had a carbone reservation available! I was very happy as my family really wanted to come here
Prime time, great meal
So easy and had a prime time which I can never seem to get on normal res apps. So worth it
Got impossible NYC res
instead of waiting weeks I got my 4 charles reservation instantly
Worked perfectly to get into Carbone. So delighted
perfect
Worked well, got me into a restaurant with no availability
I was skeptical, and I still don't really know how they managed to find this hard-to-find reservation, but it was a win-win from my point of view, and I'll use this service again.
Last minute reservation for Delilah Las Vegas
Got a last minute reservation, dinner for 2 at Delilah Las Vegas: super impressed! The process was simple, transaction seamless. We had an amazing time! Couldn’t be happier! 😍
It works!
Ok at this point I've attended a reservation purchased on AT by a friend and sold a reservation personally. Both worked pretty smoothly, nothing sketchy about it. A few areas for improvement including a way to more directly communicate between buyers and sellers, but the app always seems to be in development. AT customer support is really(!) responsive and helpful too if you have questions!
Money transfer
As a seller, I like the fact i have the ability now to transfer money out of my AT account and into a bank account. Makes getting the money much easier then the process before.
Love this app
Got to go to places otherwise unreachable
Easy Access
Very easy to get into one of the hardest restaurants to reserve in New York.

LOL. Thank you The New Yorker.
Appointment
Transferring reservations is not supported in AT. Why not just use the name in the AT screenshot?
Buyers interested in Bern's Steakhouse: PLEASE READ
Same goes for 4 Charles and I Sodi
Prepaid Reservation Fee
Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.
Congrats on 3 mil

Need to cancel a bid, not getting a response… how do I do it?
Click on "Take off the Market Option" in your portfolio
Working on your bid?
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted.
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from?
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered?
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
