Three Little Birds is definitely worth a visit! This is absolutely NOT a typical cafe & NO regular pub fare here! From the welcome --"We have been waiting for you!" to the delicious creative menu, (you eat with your eyes first). The thoughtful detail to appearance, taste in salads, yummy roasted carrots with pepita seeds & bacon, meatloaf with smashed potatoes & a perfectly cooked burger with crunch fries - we look forward to our return! The atmosphere is fun & fresh! Praising the owners & staff as this is NOT another franchise! Kudos! read more

I really want to love Three Birds. It's close by, and Sueño is my favorite restaurant in Dayton. The space is beautiful and inviting. However the food just doesn't hit for me. I have been three times. Came once for the opening, I had the burger, my fiancé had a steak dish and we shared the hummus. The burger was good, but frites were dry and my meal was so greasy. My fiancé didn't love the steak. The hummus was good but served with spiced tortilla chips like Doritos. Would have been much better with pita bread or more veggies. The next time I came with a group of girl friends. We shared several small plates, including the corndog shrimp and the pimento cheese. I also got the Chopped salad for my main. Appetizers were very good, salad was just meh. Third time we came for an early dinner. I got the BBQ Bacon Ranch Salad and fiancé got the burger. Salad was not very good, just an odd mix of flavors. Fiancé said burger was good. They changed the fries but he wasn't impressed with these either. The drinks and wine list are excellent. Would love it if the bar stayed open later Thurs- Saturday and offered more small plates and appetizers. I really hope they figure out the menu and execution because it could be such a great restaurant. read more

2.5 I would like to preface by saying drinks were fine and we'd be interested in going back for a redemption for brunch. Adorable diner vibe, nice servers, food was pretty bad. Caesar salad with chicken, but the chicken tasted just like rotisserie chicken from the grocery with no additional seasoning or anything. Hummus was decent but not a great hummus to chip/veggie ratio. Sandwich was fine, the "housemade" chips were definitely from a kettle cook bag from Kroger. read more

Amazing folks working here. Food was incredible. Speedy service and delivery. The place reminds me of an updated 1950's diner. It's very cute and the outdoor seating was spectacular. We will be back. read more

This place is just adorable. I've been twice and both times were such great experiences. The first time I came. I had a seat at the bar and had a great conversation with the bartender that included some on point recommendations. I had a great drink and a wonderful burger. The second time I dined in with my husband and a couple of friends. we split some apps and my husband and I were able to split a sandwich and still walk away feeling full and satisfied. The hummus appetizer was my absolute favorite. I like that the vibe here is upscale diner with options for every dietary restriction or preference. read more

I went here for my birthday dinner after wanting to try it for a while and I was not disappointed. I love the retro vibes and the restaurant is very spacious & clean. The patio is gorgeous and that's where we chose to sit since it was beautiful day. Service was quick and our waitress checked on us frequently. The cocktail list is well crafted. One of the better espresso martinis I've had in the area. Definitely order the shrimp corn dogs! The salads are huge and have so much flavor packed into them. My friend had their pasta and it looked incredible. Can't wait to eat here again! read more

Smash burger with caramelized onions was amazing. The wings with the dry rub reminded me a Jamaican flavor...so so good. Mushroom soup was next level! The waitress was extremely friendly and was on top of everything. We sat out on the patio and it was serene! Perfect weather. A mid century modern retro vibe. Everything was perfect!!! read more

I thought the food, service, and overall vibe of the place was awesome. I love the decor. I had the fried chicken sandwich and it was very good. My daughter had the pesto shrimp pasta, and it was also very good. And it's perhaps a silly thing to mention, but the water was really good! I have only two complaints: three of us were seated at a table in a booth that really did not have enough legroom for three people. There were bigger tables available. We didn't ask to move so I can't really complain that much. Also the parking situation is not quite up to the task: I had to stalk someone leaving to get a spot with only a 30 min wait. But I would definitely go back, I would just go for a later dinner, after the 6pm crowd clears a bit, and I would ask for a bigger table! read more

Wow! I have nothing but praise for this place! The staff were so kind and welcoming, and the building was a cute vintage diner feel. We had brunch here and it was amazing. The burrito and especially the shakshouka were delicious. From when we walked in the door until we walked out we had a great experience. We will definitely be back, maybe in the summer so we can check out the cute patio they have. read more

Three Birds is bright and cheery with tons of natural light. We went at noon on a weekday and got seated quickly. The tables are very close together, so much so that when the woman next to us got in and out, her rear end was on our table which was awkward to say the least. Our server introduced himself and brought us water and gave us some time to look over the menu. It was my first time there and my sister-in-law recommended the chopped salad with rotisserie chicken so I got that. She got the veggie burger which she enjoyed. My salad was fresh and tasted good but there was *maybe* an ounce of chicken on it. I kept thinking I'd find more as I ate into the salad but the entire amount were the few bites on top of the salad. As I'm writing this review, I looked back at the online menu and realized there was supposed to be corn and bacon on it as well, which there was none. I debated giving 3 stars but we love this restaurant group, so I think I'll go back again but will be more aware of my meal when it's brought out. read more

I met a few friends for brunch recently. I had the vegan breakfast burrito because I can't eat eggs. It was very filling and the chutney it came with made it extra tasty. The atmosphere here is always lovely and I can't wait to come back when the weather warms up to sit on the patio. read more

Fun place and it is amazing to see the remodel opening up all those windows creates a real open inviting atmosphere. We grabbed a table outside the tall trees provided shade and a nice breeze even on a smoking hot day. The waiter was prompt and offered recommendations. I had the fried chicken thigh sandwich which was very taste others grabbed the smash burger and really enjoyed it. The chips were seasoned very well and I loved the crisp shoestring fries. The cocktails were tasty and reasonably priced, but I think they need to build out the beer list a bit. Over all a fun dinner and I love the look and feel of the place. Stop in and give them a try. read more

It's new, and it's good. But it's loud, and we were seated between two tables not a foot away on each side, which reminded me of NYC. We should have known better, the parking lot was packed and it was raining so no outside seating, even though there's a very big patio. Next time we'll go we will wait till it's not so crowded and outside is an option. We will go back because the food is good. My partner in crime had a burger, and I had a Rachel that included turkey, cheese and sauerkraut. There's a small bar area as well, and fancy pants drinks. May hit it up some mid-afternoon for drinks. read more

This was our first time here. Night after Thanksgiving, wasn't too crowded. Didn't have to wait for a table. Cool space. Lots of flexible seating options. One big TV in the bar area. Good variety on menu from staters to salads to sandwiches to entrees. They do have a side salad or half salads which weren't on the menu. So ask if you want them. We went with the Smashburger and Rachel Sandwiches. Both were really good. Crinkle cut fries were just the right crispiness. We had plenty to eat and passed on dessert. Only two draft beer selections, with four or five options in cans. Patio looks really cool and would love to come back in warmer weather and try it out. read more

They did such a wonderful remodeling of this new restaurant. Try out the cute patio great for dining alfresco. The food and the service is worth a trip. read more

Excellent food and love Manny the waiter. He's a great guy who works hard to provide service you'll want to come back for! He's

My friends and I ordered the Caesar salad with added pulled chicken. The presentation was beautiful, but unfortunately it lacked flavor. We mostly just tasted the lettuce. On a positive note, I also ordered a cup of chili, which was good and enjoyable. read more

Very cool place. The vibe is great and it's in a good location. Service was very good. All the food we saw brought out looked good as well. My wife got the burger and raved about it. Just do not order the Western Burrito. I tried so hard to like it, but it was just really bad. Filled with a room-temp soft mixture of eggs and potato. It was lifeless and bland. No amount of salsa or hot sauce could fix it. Bummed, but will be back for the ambiance and to try other things on the menu! read more

We will be returning to Three Birds for sure! The brunch was amazing. Everything from the hash browns to the Bloody Mary was top notch. Service and atmosphere was dialed in. We want to try their dinner menu. Support home grown!! read more

Been wanting to try out this new restaurant. I highly suggest grabbing a reservation. It's still new and was busy. Even with a reservation we had to wait a few minutes but the service was great all night. Walking up to the restaurant itself you immediately notice the large, amazing patio. It would have been great to sit out there on a nicer night weather wise. Inside is full of natural light from the big windows all the way around the building. Loved the simple and stylish decor. I especially loved the famous three 'birds' framed in the bar area. Very cute touch. Our waiter, David, took great care of us all night. He was very knowledgeable about the menu and was able to offer suggestions and answer questions. It was very loud inside, so don't expect a quiet, intimate meal. As I said, I would have probably done the patio if it had been a nicer night weather wise. It's a tad on the expensive side but the food was delicious. We will definitely be back and try more of what they have to offer. read more

We went first thing this morning when they opened and everyone was super nice. Our waiter was extremely friendly and helpful with our choices. We did the pimento cheese appetizer which was nice and I had the veggie burger. It does fall apart a bit and isn't bound super tight but I think it's because of the fresh ingredients they use as there were whole beans in there and the pistachio was a nice touch. The bun was extremely fresh and the house made chips were solid with a great spice on them. The drinks were exceptional! We tried 3 of the cocktails. The old-fashioned was nice and had some good flavors that complemented the bourbon. read more

Amazing food and great service, really cute place! I had the sangria which was 10/10! read more

The restaurant does a great job of invoking the feel of a mid century modern diner with the beautiful restoration of the old Parkmoor Drive In. The dining room is surrounded with beautiful glass windows looking out at the neighborhood and the wonderful outdoor dining area. The menus matches the vibe featuring old school favorites with a modern twist. The bar menu follows suit creating a delightful dining experience. The only downside is the high ambient noise levels due to the abundance of hard surfaces in the space. If I had the option I would probably give it 4.7 stars, but failing that, I'm happy to round up. read more

Chad was an excellent server! We enjoyed The meatloaf, veggie Burger and excellent cocktails! Love the trendy decor can't wait to come in the spring or summer read more

Stopped in to Three Birds, for a soft opening, thoughtfully named after three iconic birds.The space was bright and had a great retro ambiance. I was greeted by Crystal, the GM at the door. The diner will focus on lunch/ dinner and there was a list of original cocktails as well as other standard drink options. I enjoyed the ' Daylight Confidential ', a fruity, light cocktail. We selected a homemade pimento cheese for appetizer, two sandwiches, and the veggie burger and fried chicken sandwich. The veggie burger was pattied in house and the chicken was hand battered. For dessert enjoyed a chocolate mousse with whipped cream and cherries. We will definitely be back to enjoy more options. PS...dont forget to keep a look out for the three birds! read more

We came to Ohio to move our daughter and needed a warm meal after a long day of driving and moving and we are so happy that we came to Three Birds. The meal was excellent. I had their salmon and my hubby had their smash burger with a side of loaded fries. The food was presented well. It was cooked to our liking. The ambiance and atmosphere of the place is so welcoming and I love the lights. We would definitely come back here again. We were also put in a nice roomy booth and we really enjoyed that. Our waitress, Michelle and Milo were quick to serve us and very friendly. read more

We had a wonderful dinner at Three Birds tonight. Our server Chad was excelent!!! we tried several of the dishes and were very pleased with them. The smashburger was delicious and the honey carrots was my favorite. I found the restaurant easy going and we all had a great experience. We will definitely be back. A big thanks to David for inviting us here to try Three Birds. read more

actually not even 1 star...... went there on a Thursday, late afternoon with my husband to enjoy my birthday. We sat ourselves at a table as there was no one there to greet us at the door nor was there a sign that said please wait to be seated. We sat there for over 10 minutes with no wait staff even glancing at us....a few even walked by us and never said anything. It seemed like they were actively avoiding us. After my husband had a few comments to the manager, we walked out. read more

Three Birds is possibly my new favorite spot in Dayton. My wife and I stopped in hoping for breakfast. We sat outside on their gorgeous patio. We learned that brunch is only served on the weekends unfortunately. But it gave us the opportunity to try the lunch menu. It was excellent. The chicken wings were perfect and the smash burger was fantastic! Finally, our server Chad could not have been better. He was spectacular. Really the perfect spot for lunch or dinner! read more

Terrific business dinner at Three Birds! Everyone loved the drinks, dinner and dessert. The atmosphere was perfect as well. Our server was professional, polite and very attentive. I highly recommend Three Birds. read more

The service was incredibly slow. If you're looking for a quick lunch spot this is not the place. You'll be here over an hour just to get your food. Seems kid friendly with the activity menu, but not kid friendly if you have to wait that long to feed them. Parking lot is annoying. The inside is cute and all the windows are nice. The food is fine. I just don't know if it's worth going back. read more

Apparently, Everything is not going to be alright if you have a pet. When Googled, The Three Birds is a pet friendly Patio restaurant. This is not the case. After being seated and ordered something to drink, Kateline informed us we could not have dinner with our dog on the patio. When I asked about the information online about pet friendly it was pointed out that it has been frustrating for them, and they are trying to get this misinformation down. Funny thing is,, Yelp even says they are Dog Friendly..... No worries. I will not be back.. read more

Went to three birds for lunch on Saturday. The service was attentive and smooth. I had my two year old daughter. This is a great place for toddlers and the place must have a 1/3 of customers with toddlers and babies. The kids menu was cute and allowed them to pick up a puzzle to play with while they waited for their food. The plate my daughter had was amazing, well organized, and the food was well cooked. (She ate almost the entire plate.) i had the smash burger with fries which was amazing, while my wife had the fried chicken sandwich with slaw which was also perfectly cooked and tasty. The layout of the restaurant was well done with plenty of green space which helped improve the ambiance and really made it a great place to hang out. We will definitely be coming back in the future. read more

Reminiscence of an old , yet upscale diner. With the trappings of somewhat overpriced wannabe hipster food and the loudness of a sports bar during the Super Bowl. Three birds delivers on a new aesthetic place to be and food that is slightly above average. The wings I had were crispy and had a unique flavor. Might not be for everyone. The burger I had was delicious and what I hoped for in a burger. Juicy , savory and meaty but I couldn't enjoy the burger the way I wanted to due to the added up charge of $5 for fries that any non skilled tween could make...I was left disappointed and longing for any other batch fries than the ones I was eating. They were flimsy ... cold and lacking any texture or flavor but that of soggy bread. Oh and lastly , I was double charged for my meal. Not sure if I would return. read more

So glad to see the old Carmel's get a reboot. This place is really neat. Cool decor and huge patio. Went on a rainy Friday night and it was packed. Chad our server was very good. Had the roasted chicken for two. The salad and fingerling potatoes were really delicious, the chicken was good but nothing special. Only downside to the place was the wine pour was pretty weak and it was very noisy. Otherwise will go back! read more

It was great. Our server chad was great. Great food. Great atmosphere. I had the meatloaf it was great. Margaritas are great. Great time

Another fabulous meal at Three Birds! This time for lunch. Our server, Aila, was attentive without hovering, and lunch service was very efficient. We had the smash burger and chicken sandwich (one with chips and one with fries) and both were fantastic. read more
