    We have been to Starling twice and both times enjoyed the experience. The menu is varied, there are several innovative items and innovative variations on items you'd find elsewhere. The food is high quality and well-prepared. Prices are in line with the quality. Service is good to average. The ambiance varies. Our first visit we were on the side to the right of the entrance and it was very nice. For the second visit, we were on the side to the left of the entrance which was noisier in general and frequent stream of people passing the tables between employees going back and forth to the kitchen and guests going to the restrooms. The parking lot is extremely small, so you may need to use the valet ($10 base + tip) if you don't want a fairly long walk.

    Service and timing needs some adjustment. Food was okay but not great. For the price I’d rather go to a more authentic restaurant with better quality. Stylish ambiance and nice bathrooms which was a bonus.

    We had the nicest time at Starling for my birthday. I’m sadly drawing a blank on our server’s name but she was fantastic. She was friendly and helpful but casual in a good way. We had a small issue with one of our meals and the staff bent over backwards to make it right. The food is great, the atmosphere is great, but what will make this place a winner is their amazing staff. 100% recommendation a visit here. A be sure to get the hummus!

    Just…not great. Service was fantastic. Ambience, beautiful. Food was so questionable. I knew as soon as our great server said “we feature food from around the world”. Read: ambitious. We got the Tikka Masala tacos and honestly, we could have made them at home. The tortillas were clearly store bought, the rest was fine. Was pulled chicken, gave crock pot vibes. Also got the bao buns. Pork belly was THICK, which, I’m dumb, was a surprise and not a good one - too fatty, personal problem), green beans, hummus and tres leches. I was expecting so much more, knowing Parlour, but this was so subpar, I wouldn’t return until maybe they refine their menu and hone it in to what they know and excel at.

    I met a couple of friends for lunch at Starling, and it was our first time there. We had a great experience with good service, tasty food, and a nice atmosphere—all at a reasonable price. We definitely plan to return soon! The host mentioned that they have a happy hour from 2 to 5, so we will be sure to check that out. The dishes we loved included the chicken butter tacos and chicken yakisoba. We also tried a Vietnamese coffee cocktail, which was absolutely amazing!

    There was a birthday card on the table when we arrived that was handwritten and beautiful. Our server was very friendly and had great advice. The green beans were excellent! Our meals were great as well. Free dessert for birthdays was even better.
