Birdsong San Francisco Reviews
Birdsong is definitely a great place to celebrate a special
Birdsong is definitely a great place to celebrate a special day. Their service is outstanding--on par with the best I've only experienced in Japan. The open kitchen and locally sourced ingredients are a highlight. The dishes aren't heavy on

We've eaten at Michelin star restaurants across the world, and this is a top 5 meal for us. Diners are invited to watch the kitchen at work, with seats at the chef's counter. They work with incredible quiet precision. The wood fire bur
Went to Birdsong for a celebratory dinner.
We all ended up with food poisoning. We contacted them directly at first rather than leaving a review, knowing that these things can happen, but they were dismissive. They told us they'd act if anyone else made a report, as if we'd made it
Hate to be giving this place 3 stars.
The service was impeccable, they put tremendous effort into preparation of their food- literally there seemed to be at least 1 person working the kitchen for every guest. However, can't ignore that many of the dishes were just ok with two not go
Oh my gosh.
Birdsong is an experience. I haven't had a meal that was that good in a very long time. The food quickly came to us and the chef's creations were so unbelievable I haven't to go back to make sure I wasn't dreaming. It ur server wa

I had a delightful experience at Birdsong! Even before entering the restaurant, we were greeted by a gentleman (one of the hosts) in front of the sign, who offered to take our photo. We arrived a bit earlier than our reservation time and they had a
A night to remember at Birdsong SF!
Went to Birdsong to celebrate our 23rd Wedding Anniversary. We walked into the restaurant (15 minutes late)and we felt so welcomed by the staff. The Chefs Table was THE MOST MEMORABLE experience and perfect for our special occasion. We felt very
I am shocked this place has 2 Michelin stars.
Shocked. The food and service are extremely inconsistent. Some dishes are great (corn bread with caviar, I'm looking at you), but several were overly salty to the point of being unable to taste any flavors. Some of the servers were extremely kno

The ambience was amazing! We sat at the chef's table right in front of the cooking fire pit. The food was delicious and I am still salivating over the sea urchin puff! Worth the money for a Michelin Star restaurant. If this is your first time to

11.27.24 I took my boyfriend here for his birthday, as this restaurant has been high on his list of places to try for some time now. SERVICE: We made reservations for 7:30pm and were not seated until 8:12pm. We were offered champagne for the wai
Had a lovely experience at Birdsong on a Thursday evening.
Quick disclaimer that I'd technically give 4.5 stars but don't want to mark them down for my review. I did the Discovery menu in February 2025. My coworkers had gotten me a gift card which paid for maybe 1/3 of the meal, but I'm grate
Book the chef's counter, I guess?
When a restaurant has two Michelin stars, my expectations for both food and service are both very high, and I typically find myself impressed by exquisite performance in both categories. My experience at Birdsong was marred by a glitch in the service
The worst fine dining experience I've had (from a Black woman who LOVES fine dining)
I was really excited to try out this restaurant with my father. It was his first fine dining experience, but this experience has turned him off from fine dining altogether. We both walked away feeling incredibly uncomfortable, so much so that I feel

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 othe
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. T

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.

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 o

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,
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
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

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

So, Birdsong became my spot this year to celebrate my birthday. I booked a chef's table seat for 1. Typically, they only offer 6 pm seating for 1 guest reservations. And, I had booked that, but closer to the reservation, I saw other chef's table spot

I ate here years ago but I still remember the exact dish that'll blow your ass off. It's blue cornbread that is sweeter than you'd expect but also has that savory corn flavor that makes the flavor so deep and rich. The chicken is fried to perfection

Connect with users posting reservations for Birdsong San Francisco
AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with Birdsong San Francisco. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience
the user has and how many percent of their transactions resulted in them issuing a refund.
If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Birdsong San Francisco at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Birdsong San Francisco page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* MaternalRecord73, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* MaternalRecord73 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to MaternalRecord73 for any questions Peter may have as MaternalRecord73 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* MaternalRecord73 now uses their connections at Birdsong San Francisco to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If MaternalRecord73 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, MaternalRecord73 receives the $200 reward which is credited to MaternalRecord73's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Birdsong San Francisco!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
