    We came in for a late dinner and were greeted by a stylish, rustic-chic atmosphere — think farmhouse meets city lounge. It’s buzzing but not too loud, perfect for conversation. Now the food: the Chicken ‘n’ Watermelon ‘n’ Waffles is as over-the-top as it sounds and absolutely worth the hype. The chicken is perfectly seasoned and crispy, the waffles light and savory, and the watermelon with a little spice adds a surprisingly addictive twist. We also tried the Deviled Eggs and the Lobster Mac & Cheese — rich, flavorful, and generously portioned. Drinks were a highlight — their Old Fashioned is bourbon-forward and balanced, and the Blackberry Bourbon Lemonade was fresh with just the right kick. Service was sharp, friendly, and fast, even on a busy night. Our server gave honest recommendations and made sure we felt taken care of without hovering. In a city full of dining options, Yardbird D.C. feels like a Southern escape with big-city polish. Great for a date night, out-of-town guests, or just spoiling yourself a bit.
