Loved this place! Food and service was wonderful. Maybe the best nachos ever. Great drinks too! If I had a complaint it would be that it’s a little too loud for me but I can over look that for the great food and service!

I gave three stars because it could have been warmer, a bit chilly. Had to keep my jacket on! The heat kicked in 1 hour later! Food is pricy for amount; if you add fries instead of chips that come with a meal ,they add $2! Onion rings are more! For the price of a plate that should come with it.
Upon walking in, no one was there to seat us! Maybe there is a lack of staff, not sure? The new world? Also, during our meal, the server didn’t come back till the end of the meal to ask how things were. Otherwise, the food is yummy.

Very Good food. Relaxing atmosphere. I would recommend coming before 4pm during the summer at least if you want to avoid crowds and waiting. We went right when they opened and got seated right away. We only had to wait a few minutes for our early dinner. My only complaint is that they should have served our salads first before the meal came out but instead within a couple of minutes of eating our salad the food came out. Our waitress was very nice and checked on us but not so much that it was annoying. But again I would come right when it opens up to avoid the crowd. A bit pricey as well but worth it because the food again is really good and they also accommodated my daughter and made her grilled cheese even though it wasn’t on the menu which I really appreciated. Will definitely be going back again.

We went to the bar on a Friday night and they had happy hour and lots of food options that were very good and reasonably priced. Awesome bartender & great atmosphere.

There are some big issues here with this map entry. Almost all of the pics, reviews, etc. are for a different business – same building. The previous business was called Duffies, it appears they closed down/changed about 6 to 12 months ago.

The new business is called Birdies Grill and Tavern. Very different menu based on the reviews and menu pics currently posted. I have no idea if the management changed or staff changed.

Now the actual review:

The place is a bit of a ghost town as it is off season here in a very heavily touristed area. I’m glad they are open as almost all the local eateries are either closed, or they are Mexican or Thai (I like both cuisines, just need variation) so options in this area are minimal right now.

I waited quite a while at the “Please Wait to be Seated” sign. I had to get a bartender’s attention (he was the only employee I could see anywhere) and he told me to grab a seat and was friendly about it. I asked if the grill was still open as there were zero diners there at 7:40 pm. He said yes, so I grabbed a table.

The place is huge, about 2/3 shut down; I assume they get used during on season and for events. There were about seven people at the bar, a bartender, and me. I sat at a table far from the bar, but the chatter was very loud. They need to put up baffling to help the acoustics.

About five minutes later a server appeared, no idea where she had been hiding as between waiting then sitting I had been there about 10 minutes, which is too long for no diners. She was friendly and took care of me, so I let bygones be bygones about the wait.

That menu was limited and prices very high, but I saw many items I wanted to try. There was a single page menu and single page drink list, both big, laminated, and double sided. I took pics but now that I am at home I see one side of the menu was too blurry to upload – I will capture that my next visit.

I had the Chipotle Bacon Meatballs appetizer. It was good, but the sauce was too sweet and I never saw any bacon. It came with four pieces of garlic toast and they were thin but tasty. For main course I had the Cottage Pie, but the portion was so small for $22 and no accompaniments. I had a drink called the “One Put Punch.” They had a golf theme (in the same building was a virtual indoor golf) so I believe they meant “One Putt Punch.” It was okay but not a $9 drink. I had a second one anyway, who needs money when you can drink alcohol.

Overall I am already planning to visit again soon. There are several menu items I want to try, and American fare is very hard to find in this area. I will add more pics and update my review if needed. I do recommend giving them a try, but bring a big wallet. I didn’t even have dessert or entre sides and still paid $55 for a solo dining experience.

We are locals and decided to have dinner at Birdies because we love to support local businesses. We walked in, the sign said seat yourself and we did. The bartender acknowledged us because he was not busy at all so we knew that they were aware we were there. It was not busy at all but after sitting and waiting for over 10 minutes and not one wait person acknowledged us, we got up and left. No one even noticed.

I have lived near here for three plus years, finally decided to try it. I’m not sure what I was expecting but I was disappointed.

The food was average at best. The prices were high compared to the level of the food.

The decor was a bit dated but it was a pretty comfortable atmosphere. The staff were friendly and attentive, had kind of a family feel.

I got the baked stuffed shrimp as my meal and they were decent, the sides left a lot to be desired.

It was good enough that I would go again and try something different. I heard the waitress telling some of the patrons what she liked best and made me think I wouldn’t mind trying some of those items before making my final determination.

I expected the food to be better for the price. The food and service was bland at best.

They do have virtual golf.

Decent and clean, the presentation of the facility left high hopes for a great stay, but the one server we had for our event left us wondering what we were doing there. Maybe she did the best she could, but I would imagine that the management knew we had reserved the event room, so one might conclude that they knew we would need more than one server. I would have preferred to have been at the bar area, watching those TVs and joking with the bartender. I’ll have to go back and try some food… it LOOKED good, but I didn’t get more than a single bacon wrapped scallop in a two hour stay… which was good, but I left to go eat, when I’d have rather eaten there. I look forward to giving them another try, when I’m there on my own terms. For now, 4 stars seems like a good placeholder.
