Bird & The Bottle

Solid fusion restaurant offering small plates and unique flavors. We randomly picked items from the menu and they did not disappoint. The grill octopus was flavorful but the main key was the side salad. I loved it. Regular fries/chips has a very tasty onion dip. Forget about ketchup, the dip is new way to go; crispy thinly sliced potatoes, you don’t taste the greasy or over fried/old oily soggy fries. Black cod and friend oysters were also good. I would prefer grilled miso cod instead of deep fried cod. Overall, it deserved a high review. They’re pretty darn good.

This place is a total gem. The food is really good and the service is awesome. We came for lunch, and it quickly filled up, indoors and outdoors. I didn’t get our server’s name, but honestly EVERYONE there hustled. There was never an empty plate or glass on our table. The busboys were constantly assisting the servers. Food is delicious and we opted to do 4-5 smaller plates to share. Smaller plates are good for two people or even a third. I will say, although the food is really tasty, most dishes we had was heavy on the sauces. Had I known, I would’ve requested light on the sauce. I just easily scraped it off. We didn’t have any cocktails as we were off to wine tasting after, but they have a full bar and I saw some rather pretty cocktails; must try next time. Parking is easy; there are also lots of street parking. Reservations can be made on OpenTable. Would totally come back again!

Top notch little place downtown, Santa Rosa. I went to a similar place not too far away yesterday for breakfast and had a serious letdown… Food drinks service was subpar. Hence, my happiness at locating this little piece of heaven! I had a wonderful bloody Mary along with my Diet Coke. My two restaurants staples! I had the cheddar cheese curds as an appetizer, which were pretty amazing and then I had the pastrami steam bun sandwich, which was off the hook with flavor! From the house made pastrami to the mustard seeds on top and the thin sliced house made pickles on the bottom. It was an all-around great tasting sandwich. I will be back!!

A Hidden gem in Santa Rosa! We stop here for dinner. I must say this place has outstanding service. The food was flavorful and delicious. We enjoyed Korean BBQ chicken, Smoked BBQ Ribs, Craft Man n Cheese, Everything spiced fries, Smokey Poke, and Smashed Cheese burger. For dessert we enjoyed the Whiskey balls, and sundae.

This review is a bit late but one I wanted to highlight. My wife and I have been here a few times throughout the years. When we head out towards Santa Rosa this place is in our thoughts to try to make a pit stop to, it should be one of your too. The restaurant has a lot of space. Indoor and outdoor seating is available as well as a bar area. The service has always been good. The staff have all been nice and friendly. The thing that always comes to our mind when coming here is the pastrami tacos! They are to YUM for! We recommend them to anyone who might be heading that way. The pastrami is moist, the mustard seeds pair so well with the pastrami. There are some menu items that change but the staples seem to stay. In the past we have also ordered the crispy skin salmon wings, corn riblets, ribs, bone marrow, and wood grilled gulf prawns. All of these items were delicious. We do order a few drinks while we are there but unfortunately I cannot remember the names of the cocktails. If you happen to be in Santa Rosa, do yourself a favor and go try some of these pastrami tacos!

The restaurant is large with two floors and outdoor dining areas. The atmosphere/service is great, and the music is very upbeat. The food selection mainly consists of tapas, which are good for sharing. Unfortunately, I personally found the seasoning to be a bit heavy and intense.

So fun!! We went for happy hour and it was amazing. The food deals are great and we got the super sized cocktail. All the food was so good, as were the drinks. I have been here a few times and every time it has been great!! We absolutely love the cheese curds and the everything bagel fries.
