Great atmosphere, some of the friendliest bar staff in the north, really good steak and pork chop dinners on Fridays, pool table too.

Rude wait staff! I asked her what she recommended, she replied with "what? You think I come here?"

Worst food ever. The grade of food they provide is just above dog food. You'll also be surrounded by bar flies who are awkward at bes.

Hands down best meal and service I've experienced in Traverse City! Fresh, thoughtful, and…read moredelicious. Yummy cocktails. Ordered 5 dishes between the two of us it was the perfect amount of food. Can't wait to go back!

Modern Bird is a very difficult restaurant to review due to a very inconsistent experience. There…read morewas one aspect that entire group felt clear on: the high noise level made the experience uncomfortable. There were six of us in our group at a table, and you could only hear the person directly next to you. Our group had a reservation and were seated immediately. The restaurant is small, and the tables are very close together and felt packed in. They do have a small roped off 'patio' area on the side walk with a couple of tables. I thought the service was fine, others in the group felt it was poor (probably because no one could hear her and we had to repeat ourselves). The server did recommend that we share several dishes as a table as they are small plates. We ordered the bread and the three vegetable appetizers to start. Here is where it is hard to review: all of the appetizers were fantastic, interesting and fresh preparations. From the light courses section, we had the bougie corn dog and the duck pasta. I'm not a fan of corn dogs, I thought it was fine, but pretentious and not worth ordering, others liked it. I did like the duck pasta. The mushroom tart was boring, dry, and forgettable (side note that if you are in Detroit, Le Supreme's is absolutely fantastic, so this can be memorable). The other stand out was the walleye main, their use of curry made it an interesting, as well as delicious, dish. We all thought the halibut was awful, it arrived with a fishy smell, but was then somehow flavorless. If we were not all splitting it, it would be a send back dish. Overall, the dishes ranged from flavorful and interesting, to terrible. No member of our group felt they would return, and I would recommend against it due to the noise level, it really was that bad. Every sound echoed off of every hard surface. As a result, it just was not an enjoyable experience.
