A Wonderful Hole In The Wall That Needs To Be Discovered.

by rosannajaan

Well, I was there last nite for the first time and liked it alot. Great music videos, great hookah, great drinks, great food, but just one problem. This place needs to have more people. So if your tired of other hookah places, go to this place. It's pretty good. And take 10 people with you.

• Pros: I like how they serve hookah and wine ; )
• Cons: Not crowded, but maybe that's just cuz it was a thursday nite.

Wonder of the Valley

by EllaFink

Last Tuesday was driving by, would not even pay attention to a small building, if not for the filming crews all over the place - and right away wondered what kind of a place it is? So, decided to stop by and look at the menu. Nothing to get excited about ? prices looked like the Deli Place. Anyway, decided to make reservation ? place looked very intriguing.

Just came home and can not stop talking about it ? what a precious place. Food was absolutely exquisite. Decor ? like I?ve been to several places in one night. We had the dinner at the top patio, smoked hookah and drinks in the lounge. We also were offered to have desserts in V.I.P. on one of the beds, since it wasn?t booked. Server was a little slow, but we enjoy every minute with conversations and music. I will definitely be back and will bring friends.

• Pros: I liked everything
• Cons: nothing on the menu for children

Crazy Wonderful Place

by alezak

First impression: crazy. Each of the patios has its own theme. Food - amazing. Service - could be better, but definitely tolerable with this food. Not a place to eat in a hurry. Overall - love it. Soup - as I just have been to one of those provinces in South France. Seafood pasta is to die for. Mouthwatering chocolate dessert (I think it calls rullette or rullet). Coffee - best Italian coffee I've ever had. Since my friend will write his own review, I will not describe his meal (which I had a bite from each of the courses).

Wish you well and now I'm one of your patrons. Promise to tell everyone I know about your place and THANK YOU for wonderful night.

• Pros: Food ix excellent
• Cons: Street Parking

Loveable Russian Lady

by silovo

This restaurant was a total surprise!!! The food was deliciious and the service was awesome. The place has 3 levels and being a smoker I found it smoker friendly. We had tuna tartar and the dish was phenomenal. The chef actually came out to greet us. Lastly, our waitress was the most adorable russian lady, we felt so at home. I higly recommend this restaurant!!!!!

• Pros: Food,Service, Adorable Russian Lady

Great Hidden Location

by foodlvr20

This was a great surprise. We had a wonderful dinner last night. Because they were out of the dish I wanted, the chef made me a special dish. Its nice to find a place that offers vegan options. The food was great and the service was wonderful. I highly recommend it.

Great Ambiance

by stonecyn

What a great place. I have lived and worked in the South Valley for over thirty years. Have seen many restaraunts come and go. The outdoor dining experience is fantastic. My wife, sister & her husband & I arrived around 7:00 and were glad to see it not too crowded. After a quick tour we were seated and enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere while we ordered. By coincidence My sister & I both ordered the seared Ahi and my wife & borther in-law had salmon. After an appetizer (sorry, I forgot what it was but tasted great) Everything was prepared and presented with what you would expect in a five star restaraunt. Coffee and dessert capped off an excellent evening. Will definitely return.

avoid like the plague!!

by juliesad

DO NOT GO. food is terrible, service is even worse. these people are unscrupulous and are looking to rip off customers. from the first whif of the place i should have trusted my instinct, turned around and left. the staff ignored us, didn't apologize for keeping us waiting, our food took over an hour, was taste-less, over-cooked and over-priced. they "upgraded" us to a "wine hookah" without asking and then wouldn't take it off the bill lying that they had to "open a new bottle of wine". this is a total waste of money and there is ZERO dining pleasure and it should frankly be torn down for a new restaurant.

• Pros: the location
• Cons: bad food, bad service

Bird Cage-Great name Food tastes like somthing you would in the bottom of one

by studiocityfoodlover

Last night me and my Fiance went to the bird cage for the first time...Turns out it will also be the last. After walking thru the place looking for well...anyone a waitress comes up to seat us...we actually came to look at the venue for a wedding reception...I wouldn't serve that food to my guests if they paid me. We ordered 3 diffrent appitizers to start our evening(we dine out frequently and know that if the apetizers are bad so is the rest of the food). We ordered Lobster raviolis, crab cakes, and stuffed mushrooms. after about 40 minutes the food showed up, which would have been ok if they were busy, but there was only one other couple in the reasurant. the lobster raioli was covered in what looked like a thick brown goo. the stuffed mushrooms were a mix between italian and bad, and the crab cake was so unapitizing i had to down my drink to get the taste out of my mouth. Of course being a glutten for punishment, and still hungry from my lack of edible food. We ordered dessert...porfitorols...let me explain incase ya don't know what they are... ice cream covered in pastry topped with choclate sauce...hard to mess up right? WRONG...tasted like stryofoam ...how do you mess up icecream....I could go on about the slow service and the fact that they had a dvd playing that they never started so it kept playing the demo music over and over and over...Oh and the topper was I actually got sick from my fine dining experience...which ened up costing a nice chunk of change...but it was worth every penny to never have to eat there again...PLEASE DONOT BELIEVE THE GOOD REVIEWS ON THIS SITE...THEY WERE PROBABLY WRITTEN BY THE OWNERS. BIRDCAGE IS BAD BAD BAD

• Pros: this review so you can avoid the place
• Cons: everything about the place

To die 4

by molliem1970

I was here with my friends last week and this place was packed. We had to wait about 15 minutes, but it was worth it. A lot of people don't know about this place because it isn't that visible. This place has a unique taste, decor to start with and the food to end with. Every dish we ordered is a mouth watering. You have to try it. We came again this week and it wasn't that busy, but don't let this bother you it's all worth every penny of it.

• Pros: all pros no cons
