    This is our second time at Seabird. The first time it was about three years ago. And I haven't had a transformative culinary experience like that in many years. The service has always been excellent The second time around last night was just a surprising and delicious and all the selections were top-notch. My only criticism would be that the catfish and oyster pie was presented in a bowl rather than an in sort of a tapas style flat dish. Just wasn't as savory and comforting as the first time I had that dish. Outside of that, five stars plus. Great company from real characters sitting on either side of us throughout the entire evening. We ended up staying extra just to socialize, which is not normally our thing. Great time overall and will be back. Keep up the good work guys!

    First experience for me and my wife (of 54 years) and out-of-town guests was amazing. One of the best restaurant experiences ever for all four of us. A bit pricy but worth every cent. Good menu and all four (different) meals were outstanding. In particular we all thought the Caesar salad was the best ever experienced. Wine (Chianti Classico) paired wonderfully. Finally, the waitress Alex was very knowledgeable and engaging.
