This place is a vibe and I am here for that. When you first walk in you are created with a beautiful painted mural of birds, a counter full of desserts, and a cuckoo clock. The food did not disappoint. Hot, fresh, and so good. Had one of the specials, fried green tomatoes, which was a wonderful take on a classic. The chicken sandwich was also a great take on a classic and would highly recommend. Dessert! Save room or take it home. Had the coconut cream cake. Super fluffy cake, lots of coconut, and not overpowered by the frosting. 10 out of 10, would eat here again!!

Absolute hidden gem of Middleburg. If you’re ever visiting our little piece of FL paradise be sure to give them a try. Our first visit was during the soft opening and even with all the chaos that comes with that Birdie’s made us happy to have come that night and made sure we’ve been back multiple times since. Food has been delicious every time with friendly and efficient service. No long waits for food. Nothing tasted like it was a pre made either … and let’s not get started on the dessert selections. I’ll just say make sure it’s a cheat meal when you come.

Food was amazing! Our group had the fried chicken, ribs, shrimp bowl, cheese sandwich, and 4 desserts- everything was so good, huge portions, and homemade! We wish they were open for lunch, as 'Burg really needs more weekend options!

Eat HERE, thank me later!! We went in before the dinner rush and walked right in to be seated right away. The inside is very small but still maintains a cozy vibe. Our server was Carrie and immediately gave off welcoming vibes. I let her know that her name is spelled the same as mine and she immediately began to chat more which was nice. She was very familiar with the menu and we especially appreciated her recommendations being that this was our first visit. Carrie is definitely a star!!! Now let’s talk food…. The fried chicken is heaven, no seriously, paired with the mashed potatoes and Brussel sprouts chefs kiss!!!! The meatloaf was very tasty and perfectly balanced with the mashed potatoes. The third dish is the bacon cheeseburger Mac n cheese, another star of the show. The portions were good sized and plates hit the table timely although the kitchen was very busy. The dessert menu was plentiful making it hard to select which one to take home. We opted for the pineapple upside down cake, carrot cake and peanut butter pie slices. I unfortunately wouldn’t recommend the carrot cake as it lacked ingredients you would anticipate such as raisins and nuts having only frosting which was not that great with a terrible butter taste. We will definitely be back nonetheless and have already started to spread the word about this new hidden gem, so I say to you, eat HERE!!!!

Hallelujah! Finally, another good restaurant in DaBurg. I'll admit, we held off coming here because we didn't want to like it and have it go away. Remember the Luchador? We found the place almost full tonight- a good sign. We were greeted warmly and taken to a table quickly. I ordered the fried catfish dinner with Brussels sprouts and fries. The catfish was well cooked and the batter was warm, crispy, and well seasoned. The Brussels sprouts were out of this world and the fries were good- they're fries. My wife ordered the chicken pot pie bowl. She loved it. I tried it and agree, nice and peppery with a rich broth and a nice, light, floating crust. For desert we split a fried bread pudding with vanilla ice cream. This was a perfect way to end our meal. We loved this dish it wasn't too sweet and the ice cream really accentuated the warmth of the pudding. Overall we loved our meal and can't wait to go back.
