Wonderful ambience and unique delicious food! I had the bison hangar steak (pictured) which was outstanding! My friends had the maple glazed salmon and the pot roast which they thoroughly enjoyed. Highly recommend!

What a gem this place is! My husband and I had such a lovely evening here, and our server Tonya R. was so sweet and made the best suggestions. The salmon, pot roast, and pork belly appetizer was all delicious. Mockingbird is a new favorite for sure ♥️

We had an amazing time at Mockingbird. Tanya was an amazing server. She was knowledgeable about the food, efficient and personable. The food was 10/10. We got the pork chops and smoked chicken followed up by the chocolate bourbon pecan pie and raved about it the whole way home. Thank you Tanya and Mockingbird for a wonderful evening!

Mockingbird is just so incredibly consistent in their execution of affordable but amazing dining. The owner is very personable and regularly comes out to greet guests. However, I’m leaving the review as a result of dining for the restaurant’s New Year’s Eve four course meal. For the price and experience, I’m not sure I’ve ever had anything better! As close to perfection as a dining experience can get and I’m very pleased this spot is so close by as I will continue my regular visits.

Very cool spot in terms of rustic decor and atmosphere, but the food was not as epic as our experiences elsewhere this visit, but still a good experience overall.

FRIED GREEN TOMATO (whipped pimento cheese, baby arugula, sweet onion jam, balsamic redux, basil oil) – with all the flavors in one bite, it’s fairly tasty but the fried tomato itself is nothing too remarkable. Would have been helped with more pimento cheese.

OPEN FACED CRAWFISH PO’ BOY (grilled garlic baguette, classic remoulade, baby arugula) – was surprisingly dry and mostly crisp than craw but still decent with some extra remoulade.

CRISPY BRUSSELS SPROUTS (honey-chipotle vinaigrette) – solid brussels sprouts, a bit more on the sweet side but very enjoyable.

SOUTHERN SHRIMP AND GRITS (NOLA style BBQ shrimp & andouille sausage in a dark roux served over Wade’s Mill cheddar grits) – not the best shrimp and grits I’ve had but fairly good. The shrimp in particular were perfectly grilled and seasoned, but the sausage was unremarkable and the roux itself lacked heft and flavor. Grits themselves were fine as grits go.

CAJUN SPICED VEGAN MEATBALLS (caramelized onion gravy, wild rice pilaf, sautéed green beans) – as far as vegan meatballs go, my wife and niece said they were good.

My one cocktail Across the Pacific felt imbalanced, a bit too sweet. I make this exact cocktail at home so I may be a bit partial to my drier variation though. But didn’t finish their version.

CHOCOLATE-BOURBON PECAN PIE (vanilla bean whipped cream, caramel sauce) – the absolute highlight of the meal for all us. The best pecan pie I’ve ever had.

Service was good overall, staff is friendly and polite.

Love the decor, just like a giant house that’s got a cozy interior split into two large dining rooms and then a massive outdoor patio.

This place could get a 5 if the food came out faster and the service was more attentive. Everyone enjoyed their meal and the appetizers were very good. I’d pass on the biscuits next time as they weren’t anything special.

Had a girls dinner with a friend and the experience was wonderful start to finish! Our waitress was magnificent and topped only by the quality of food. We opted to get a bunch of shareables rather than a main and feel we made the right choice because their list of appetizers is tasty.

The pork belly and the crispy brussel sprouts would be CANT miss items for me that I would go back to this restaurant specifically for. The biscuit basket was also amazing. Banana pudding was not my favorite in the world but obviously homemade. Smoked wings we a nice protein addition.

Really in summary I was very impressed and will be back again.

Amazing menu with a southern touch where most items can be prepared gluten-free. The staff are knowledgeable, conscious of allergens and take all necessary precautions to prevent cross-contamination. Sadly, their crab cakes are not GF.

I visited for dinner on a Wednesday evening. The service was quick and efficient. A shout-out to my server, Lynn, who went above and beyond to pack my leftovers, including my drink.

The only complaint I have is regarding the parking lot which is tiny and is rather hard to get into and out of.

We went to Mockingbird for their Wednesday Date Night which I hope they continue doing because it’s such a good deal and makes Wednesdays a special treat your self night. Our food was so delicious for our first time there. We got the baked feta, which was a little too sweet for a starter but I still liked it. We got the fried pork chop and the grilled bison hanger steak. The portions were plentiful and the steak was perfectly cooked medium rare. The garlic mashed potatoes were the best I’ve ever had. Dessert was a bourbon chocolate pecan pie which I thought was a little too sweet but the whipped cream helped out. I’d love to try their baked mac and cheese and shrimp and grits next time!
