Locally-grown and delicious

Blue Bird Bistro is the perfect spot for vegetarians and those who are trying to be more conscious of how the way they eat impacts the earth. They obtain their food from local sources and thus the dishes are a celebration of our rich local agriculture, including pecans, eggs, and sustainably-raised chicken and bison. My favorite dish is the polenta appetizer, which is good for a light lunch if you order it in the entree version as well. Check out their pizza special of the day as it is usually good. And it is a great place to meet for breakfast. The service at lunch has been horribly slow all the times I’ve been there but I just plan for a longer lunch when I’m headed there. Worth the wait!

Dishes I tried:

Polenta with Vegetables

This appetizer uses polenta as the canvas for a variety of yummy spreads, including black olive tapenade and two others. It comes with a variety of seasonal vegetables that also may be used for dipping.

Such a Surprise!

I just happened upon Blue Bird Bistro while looking for another shop. It is in an out-of-the-way location, but not too far from downtown. Went on a Saturday morning (always LOVE finding new places to get breakfast). The restaurant’s rustic decor, along with classic table settings (they serve water in stemware), tends to lend a casual, unhurried, but classic flair.

The food was tasty, offering well-known dishes with unique items thrown in for that “something extra.” For example, I had a half-order of biscuits and gravy. I added crumbled bison sausage and a poached egg (cage-free).

I will go back!

Dishes I tried:

Biscuits and Gravy (half-order)

Fluffy, house-baked biscuits smothered in organic cream gravy with mushrooms, shallots and herbs (half-order). I added crumbled bison breakfast sausage, and a cage-free egg. Just the right amount!
