    This is an excellent choice for pre-theatre parking and dining. The Westin hotel valet service, attendants are courteous and helpful about how things work there: free parking during dinner, $10 covers theatre time, pick up afterward, all seamless The restaurant has a bit of off-the-hotel-lobby feel, but in a good way. Varied menu to satisfy any appetite, delicious food delivered promptly, nice bar, and wine selection. There are police/security very closeby, it feels safe - there are homeless people more toward the theatres (who we brought our leftover pizza to), but even that did not seem dangerous. I would choose this again, for pre-theatre and/or overnight.

    The place needs an immediate upgrade. It’s ugly. How it can be part of a Westin is beyond me. The food was decent. The service was very professional. The place needs a decorators help.

    Great place to dine before going to Broadway Civic Center. Bronze Bird also gives you 20 percent off your meal if you are going to the show!

    We ordered the carne asada nachos, watermelon and feta salad, short rib tacos, and apple tart. We were pleasantly surprised at the amount of flavor each savory dish had despite not being overly salty, which we appreciated. We were a bit disappointed at the dessert - it was fairly bland and unimpressive, but we’re willing to try a different one next time. Jessica was our server and she was such a delight to interact with. We hope to come back soon!

    Excellent service and great dinner stop before a show at the Balboa Theatre. $10 valet parking (5hrs) with theater ticket and dinner at Bronze Bird. Great drinks and shareable dishes. Definitely my choice for dinner/show evenings!

    The menu selection was wide enough to suite and short enough not to get lost. I had the Asian Tofu tacos appetizer and a Watermelon Feta salad as my main and my husband had the salmon. We both enjoyed our meals completely. The service was excellent and server Sean and Otto checked on us without being intrusive. Very friendly and welcoming. We had a drink before our dinner. I had a very nice Bloody Mary and husband had a tasty Stout that Sean brought a sample of before committing. We were there at 5.30 on a Sunday so it was not crowded. The tables occupied were not all stacked in one area but spread out. We enjoyed a leisurely early dinner. When we attend a concert downtown we will be adding the Bronze Bird to our list of places to dine.
