We went with a group of friends on a Saturday night! The restaurant was not too busy but having a reservation is always a good idea. They have both indoor and outdoor seating. It did look dog friendly as there was a pup on the patio. Our server was attentive and provided great service to our large party. The food was good! My husband and I started with Carrot & Hummus appetizer. We expected the carrots to be cooked a bit more but the hummus was delicious. I had the scallop risotto, which was executed perfectly. My husband had the steak & Frites. His steak was cooked med-rare and perfect for him. The others in our group all enjoyed their meals. The salads were very large and the burger will be the next thing to try, it looked amazing! read more

Favorite new find!!! We went twice in one weekend! From the amazingly awesome hostess, to the fabulous folks behind the bar to the amazing chefs, and our servers... everything from start to finish was a great experience! Loooooove all the food we had. LOVE the cocktail, love the brunch, the Brussels sprouts, the atmosphere, and service is amazing. (Um I think this is the best cheeseburger we've had. In the top 2 at least!) read more

Loved the atmosphere, service, and food. I was there with a group. It was interesting to look around and literally everyone's plate was clean! That's how good it was! I got the Rigatoni with Vodka Sauce. Yummy! And also the key lime pie dessert square. Super yummy! It tasted fresh and homemade. I also was told that the short rib - which most people got - was great. Our server was fantastic, too! I would definitely like to go back. read more

Nice place in the heart of downtown Chandler AZ. I did like this place, but only really have one complaint. I'll start with that. The vodka pasta was just a pasta dish, but you had an option to add on shrimp, chicken, etc. The pasta without the shrimp was $24 and the shrimp was an extra $12 on top. They gave 3 pieces of shrimp for $12. That doesn't sit well to me. That's a $36 dish with 3 pieces of shrimp. The other dish was swordfish which I liked. The burrata was a good appetizer. Just think about it..... this place could have gotten 5 stars. Maybe they should review their practices. read more

We had a really positive experience due to our bartenders being wonderful but the Aftermath Burger was a very sad experience. Both my boyfriend and I order this burger. The cheese tasted so artificial. I ended up asking our server if the cheese was Kraft single slices and she let us know that it was Velveeta cheese. Ugh... So overpowering. Any real cheese or any other cheese flavor (provolone, havarti, Brie, pepper jack, Gouda) would have made this burger 10/10. But we could each only finish 1/2 our burger read more

Great food, very cool atmosphere! We went for their soft opening and the staff so attentive, we ordered a few different appetizers and plates and enjoyed them all! Must try drink - the espresso martini, the foam is delicious! Or the old fashioned Must try apps - Brussels and burrata, the olives on the side have a tasty kick! Must try entrees - the burger is amazing, short rib fell off the fork and the swordfish was cooked perfectly. Must try, enjoy! read more

Slid in right before the brunch rush and had an absolute blast. Obviously, we kicked things off with a bottle of champagne...because, duh, that's literally why we came. You even get to pick your mimosa flavor, and I went with pineapple, which was chef's kiss. My friend and I debated a second bottle (solid life choice), but we switched it up with my go-to espresso martini instead..zero regrets, it was fire. For food, I went with the short rib breakfast bowl, which was super tasty and actually filled me up... though the quinoa? Meh. Who invited that to the party? Live music was a fun bonus, and overall, I'd 100% come back to brunch it up here again. read more

Always ready to try a new place, we three longtime girlfriends headed to downtown Chandler. The hostess was very accommodating as we were running late for our 5pm reservation. No worries, we got right in. Pleasant server who recommended her favorite apps and entrees. (Not pictured was our Brussel sprouts). All three of us ordered the same thing, though I wish we had deviated a bit so we could try other menu items. I was hungry, so I ate everything. I was not overly impressed with my salad. Weird, thick-ish dressing. Avocado? Not my fave & I'm a Caesar salad lover. For me, burger was good. But, for $22 the meat patty was skimpy. Bun was nice and soft. The meat to bun ratio was off putting. Maybe if I had ordered the 2 patty burger, the ratio would have been better. My water glass was NEVER empty. Great service. Server /bussers were very helpful, very pleasant. One of the servers found out we were celebrating a birthday so the dessert was complimentary. We opted for the bread pudding. It was a tad dry, but the melted Gelato helped. As the evening progressed, the place filled up quickly. With the crowd, the volume increased. There was plenty of outside seating for those who wanted to enjoy a "quieter" vibe. I would definitely go back and give this place a second chance. read more

Cat our service is top notch! Most pleasant server I have had in a long time. Attentive the entire time we were here. The burger was delicious however it would be better if you have a real cheese here instead of processed freaking Velveeta cheese. American food does not have Velveeta cheese on it. The other choice was Munster, which is not much better get it together use American cheese or cheddar cheese . The ambience was just OK . read more

We ordered through door dash. Sometimes food comes cold, I get that. But everything was cold. The burrata is something of a grocery store burrata and the bread wasn't even toasted. The kids meals are all frozen items and with that price is a joke. The brussel sprout appetizer still had stems on them. Things needed salt and pepper or even spices for the burrata. read more

this place is expensive dive bar food at best. waited just over an hour for a burger and wings. when it came out everything was cold not even warm to the touch. Paid for absolutely disgusting food. service was just as bad we had empty drink as long as it took the food to come out. read more

Bloody Mary was nothing to talk about & breakfast chimi was disappointing. Really had little to no taste~ same with the Bloody Mary. Even the green olives had no taste. It's a nice looking place & service was good but we won't be going back. read more

Food was amazing service was amazing I wish I remembered the ladies name that served me but I'm sure she will remember I came in with me and my daughter. The total was so reasonable I was shocked and the Cesar wrap is really that good and enough for two meal. Kinda more of a date night or adult vibe but they were very sweet to my kid definitely would go again!! read more

Three stars for the service and atmosphere. We came early on a weeknight and asked or a table for two. Place was 80% empty but they said they were 'fully reserved' and of course still more than half empty when we left but I get some places roll like this so we squeezed in at the bar. Bar service was attentive and friendly throughout. Pretty decent happy hour specials. Really wanted to like the food but unfortunately went 0-3 on what we ordered. Chicken wings were truly terrible. Rubbery skin and gross texture with little flavor. Left uneaten and to be fair they did remove from bill. 'Award winning' burger was ok. Velveeta cheese on a nice onion bun will make anything taste pretty good but the meat was two thin patties that felt overcooked and lacked flavor. Steak frites was not good. Felt like a poor cut of meat honestly for $50. Not that big, chewy and has a small drizzle of chimichurri. Fried were salty to point of being inedible. Would go back for drinks but probably not another meal. read more

Came for happy hour, service was good, super cute spot. The food was unacceptably bad., cesar salad- nothing exciting, fries- crispy and flavorful (only decent thing we had), mac & cheese- bland, almost like they forgot to add cheese. It tasted like alfredo sauce. Burger- huge, store bought, bun with a burger patty that was literally the size of a McDonalds burger patty. No seasoning, nothing. I can't believe people come here. Im assuming the positive reviews are for the drinks, cause the food is all bad. read more

Stopped by for drinks and dessert. WOW I didn't expect such craft cocktails with so much attention to detail! Superb drinks with excellent customer service from the bartender! Our ice water was never empty either. For the dessert, we got the key lime bar which was delicious. It's a subtle lime flavors which tells me it's from real limes and not fake flavoring. The texture is like a velvety smooth custard, topped with fresh pistachios. read more

I should have known my dining experience wouldn't go well when I couldn't remember for the life of me what exactly the name of the restaurant was or bred vs bread Ok so we booked ahead for AZ restaurant week and immediately disappointed when the menu main course only offered pork or vegetarian as neither of us eat those. So we gravitated onto the regular menu as they said no substitutes and that was a bummer. Then we ordered bread to start and asked waiter and food runner at two different times for it and it never came. They brought our food and acted surprised like they didn't remember we ordered it. They did end up bringing it another ten minutes later and offered to take it off charge but it seemed too little too late. The truffle fries were so crispy they were hard as a rock and inedible. The steak was pretty good as was the chicken Madeira. However, I ordered a side salad and they brought and charged me for full size $15 salad. It was a very tasty salad though so that's good. I also don't recommend the prickly pear cider it was warm and not chilled and way too much sugary syrup in it. Patio tables were Way too close you could barely get in and out and they weren't even that packed on a Friday night so could have removed at least 2 to spread out others. So close you could hear entire conversations on left and right. Putting you on edge all night lol. And on top of that our table was not just slightly but majorly wobbly rocking back and forth all night. Waiter was MIA the entire time. We saw her briefly once when she brought the bread appetizer 3/4 into eating our main course. Which means she also wasn't checking in on the long line of tables next to us either. I do not think I'll return it was too many negatives roles into one unfortunately. read more

We had the best dinner last night. We did not have a reservation and were able to get a dog friendly table out on the beautiful patio right away. My poodle loved the pup patty. We tried the Cesar salad and chicken wings to start and split the rigatoni. Everything was flavorful and the use of quality ingredients was evident. My husband ordered the margarita and it was perfect, I love the amount of salt and dried lime just looked beautiful! I had a glass of Sauvignon Blanc, it was great but I wish I had ordered the margarita after trying his. Our service was wonderful from the hostess, to the server and even the manager checked on us more than once, everyone was kind to my dog, we can't wait return. read more

My best friend came into town so we came here for a little brunch. The michelada was more like a Bloody Mary and was just missing something. Not the best. We ordered the burrata & oysters to start and it was a 50/50 experience. The burrata was amazing! Great portion and olives were nice and spicy. However, the oysters were definitely not worth the price. They were tinier than the olive in my michelada which was very disappointing. The server even tried to clear our dish because she thought we were done but they were just so tiny she didn't see them! We also ordered the steak and eggs and the churro waffle to share. The steak was cooked perfectly and extremely flavorful. The churro waffle was not anything special - just your common buttermilk waffle with some cinnamon sugar on top. Lastly, I wanted to order some lunch for my husband to go. When I put in my order for the steak sandwich, the server said we do not offer our lunch menu on the weekends. So he had to settle for the burger. It looked promising with such a great location in downtown Chandler but the experience was not what I was expecting. read more

Ambiance: Stepping into Born & Bred felt very cozy; rustic decor set the restaurant for a casual yet charming atmosphere. Blue Jazz music played softly in the background, and the aroma of grilling meat filled the air. Service: Our server, Kylie S, was very cute, friendly and attentive. She answered our questions thoroughly and made helpful recommendations. the wait time for food was in a good templo, especially considering the restaurant was quite busy today (Valentine's Day). Food: started with and the Oysters, grilled Brussels Spouts was fresh and vibran, touched with very balanced dressing. The Short Rib was cooked to a perfect tender, juicy and flavorful. The accompanying mashed potatoes were creamy and rich, Other main courses we ordered like Scallops & Risotto and Swordfish were hearty and comforting dishes. Drinks: The selection of cocktails was impressive, and our server helped us choose one that paired well with our meals. Price: The prices were on the reasonable end for a casual & fine dining experience Overall: The Bird & Bred offers good dishes charming atmosphere and friendly service. And we are happy with the complimentary white wine the restaurant GM offered today. read more

I will start off by saying the host you had on Saturday morning was absolutely phenomenal. She made my girlfriend and I feel absolutely welcome. Unfortunately that is where it ended. I wish we could have tried the food but after sitting at the bar for five minutes and not even being acknowledged we left. We were the only two people at the bar. It looked as through the bartender was caught up in making drinks and busy which is understandable but a simple I will be right with you would have been nice. There was also what looked like a manager doing inventory and they both passed us with not even a hello. As a former bartender and a now manager that does inventory behind a bar, please acknowledge your guests. We felt so awkward and uncomfortable. No matter how busy you are a simple hello goes a long way. I will never leave a bad review just felt you should hear this experience. read more

We went for dinner last night and had a great time! We sat at the bar so we could watch the college World Series and the bar tender, Matt, was amazing! His passion for making exceptional drinks was obvious. The food was delicious- we ordered the burger and salad. Will definitely go back soon. read more

Great place - and amazing happy hour prices. Dan was our waiter and he was super nice.

The service was great, the drinks were great and it is a beautiful place with great ambiance and a very nice bar. I ordered the burger because it said that it was "Voted #1 in AZ" on their menu. That was the rough spot. The burger is overly salted, much like a Shake Shack burger, and has an odd sauce on top, ala a combination of McDonald's secret sauce, potato salad and pickles. It was tough to make it through the burger to be honest. The tots done in tallow were good but only because they were crispy and not greasy, the flavor was fairly standard. They also have a spicy ketchup which is odd when you expect a normal ketchup flavor. I would return for other dishes if in the area, but for the money it was underwhelming. read more

Very understaffed leading to slow service and long wait times. The food was very quiet and not very flavorful

Absolutely awesome place, great vibe and good people like Matt, Albert and Haley taking the best care of all! Cheers!

Easy to make a reservation. Service was fine, nothing over the top but wasn't bad. My food did come out cold with the rest of the table, which was a bummer because if it was hot it probably would've been amazing. read more

After many visits to chandler over the years we noticed this spot was new and decided to check it out for brunch one morning. The menu sounded amazing and it was on the later end of brunch so it really wasn't very busy at all which was surprising since there was live music on the patio. We got seated right away, our server was also the bartender so you could tell he was multitasking but he made it work. I went with the croissant breakfast sandwich and my boyfriend did the Chilaquiles. Both were good but I wouldn't say amazing. Seemed like it was missing some seasoning or lacking a little bit of flavor. Like any croissant sandwich it was messy and turned into a knife and fork sandwich which I don't mind I did add avocado and kind of wish I didn't because it wasn't fully ripe so it was hard and not very enjoyable. I did love the sauces they had on the side like the spicy or tangy ketchup. I would like to check this spot out for dinner maybe next time we visit because like I said the menu looks fantastic I was just lacking some more flavor to the dishes we had. read more

Very nice service...wings are not crunchy, but delicious and different. The double patty burger on an onion roll, really delicious. The pretzel dessert salted caramel thing just stupidly delicious. The Mac n Cheese-was a complete sad sack, 1. Dry 2. Not creamy 3. Maybe even the wrong pasta choice 4. All the cheese was sunk soup at the bottom of the lil bowl they serve it in. BUT they didn't charge us when we shared our disappointment. Def would go back for everything we ordered except the MAC. Oh: pearl vodka w/ cranberry YUM My husband ordered a Lady Luck as a mocktail YUMMY read more

We were in town for a wedding and staying across the street at a neighboring hotel. We've been to their sister restaurant in Phoenix and were excited to try this restaurant. We arrived at 1:30 and it was pretty empty for a Saturday lunch. Sat at the bar ordered a Bloody Mary [yum] and a Mezcal cocktail [good]. We ordered the truffle fries from the female bartender. After roughly 15 -20 minutes we asked about our fries. She said she forgot to ring them in. No biggie, we ordered another drink while we waited..... We finished that drink and still no fries! We asked for our check [from the male bartender who was brand new]. The check included the truffle fries that we never received. We brought this to his attention and he swiftly removed from our bill. The female bartender was no where to be seen. Bummer because we were hoping to eat something before the wedding. Won't return or recommend. read more

Came in for the first time ever on Wednesday morning and had the best stay, Matt and Haley were beyond welcoming and made amazing cocktails, probably the greatest in downtown chandler. Had the chance to meet one of the newer bartenders Albert and he made us feel right at home. 10/10 would recommend stopping by if you're in the area. The brunch menu was impressive, & the truffle fries did not disappoint!! read more

Genuinely the worst customer service I have ever experienced... the food was fantastic however the overall disposition of the waitresses and hostess put a horrible taste in my mouth. Blatantly ignoring tables, clearly gossiping about tables in front of said people they're discussing, generally poor customer care. Blank stares, constant disgruntled expressions, and little to no desire to make the moment right. Has the potential to be an amazing establishment if the entire wait staff was replaced. read more
