This place was incredible, highly recommend the buttermilk biscuits, chicken, waffles & watermelon, enough for 2 to share. Try to book if you can to avoid any queues as it's pretty busy at the weekend

Like others have said, order the Chicken N Watermelon N Waffles with a side of mac and cheese and share both. Even the bourbon maple syrup and honey hot sauce is to die for.

Best fried chicken ever! So dam juicy it's unbelievable. The fried chicken and waffles is enough for two so don't be intimidated by the price. The watermelon sling is refreshing not too sweet!

10/10! Chicken N’ Watermelon N’ Waffles with bourbon maple syrup and honey hot sauce is insanely good. Order with a side of mac and cheese and share both.

You'd best be starving cuz portions are big! Start with fried green tomatoes and the chicken biscuits. Share the chicken and waffles and mac & cheese (ranked top 10 in US). Blueberry Bourbon lemonade!

I absolutely loved the fried chicken & the biscuits, the spiced watermelon was not for me however I’d order it raw the next time

So bad for you, but so good. The signature is fried chicken with watermelon, and the chicken is crispy, juicy, all you want in fried chicky. Start with biscuits! Also can't pass a good deviled egg 🐣

Fried chicken is fresh and juicy. Servers all very friendly. Def save room for the deep fried Oreos. It's battered w choco rice crispies and served w fresh oreo ice cream. Need I say more? 😍

Call ahead for reservations; if you don't, you'll wait at least 45 mins for a table. Go to the bar while you wait; they bartenders will let you sample the alcohol before you buy. Biscuits are amazing!
Manuela McDanalDecember 27, 2014
Watermelon chicken and waffles is a great choice! The chicken is fried to perfection and the combination of sweet, savory and hot makes it a perfect dish. Accompany it with a southern revival cocktail

Outstanding food and service! I don't know what they put in those waffles and maple syrup but it tastes amazing! Their bourbon lemonade look innocent but are quite strong. Highly recommended!

Fried Chicken is great. My suggestion is to do the Chicken Al-a-cart so you can try one or two different sides. I had the biscuits and Cauliflower Mashed Potatoes, both were exceptional.

Really good quality food. Mama's Chicken Biscuits are the one item that you MUST get. The place is usually crowded so you might want to make a reservation. Not cheap at all by the way.
Calvin LacockMarch 29, 2015
Mana's chicken biscuits are to die for. If you don't have a reservation or only you, walking and sit at the bar. Awesome service and no wait :)

Their fried chicken and beef brisket sandwich are must! Fried chicken very juicy inside and crispy outside. The brisket sandwich is so flavorful almost tasted like short rib. Waitress is super sweet.
Tammy GordonFebruary 1, 2013
My faves: fried green tomato BLT, surf & turf (the pork belly rocked) & the Strawberry Shortcake. Also, DC peeps: they have some good Virginia vino on the menu. Support em!
Jordan MFebruary 19, 2018
Fried green tomato, shrimp & grits, the chicken... come hungry it’s all great. If you’re not a bourbon drinker try any of their cocktails with vodka.
CNNJune 22, 2015
Yardbird is especially popular for its chicken and waffles, served with a side of spiced watermelon and bourbon maple syrup. Read more

We enjoyed our dinner very much! Had the fried chicken, ribs and mac and cheese. Food came quickly and was very tasty. Great vibe and cold beer! Will stay on our Miami list!
BassimNovember 12, 2019
They are know for the delicious fried chicken, brisket biscuits, beef steak, grilled shrimp and roasted bird. We had them all, never regret that!
Monica BloomFebruary 20, 2015
Don't pass on the chicken. It is moist and delicious and crispy skin that is addictive. Also recommend the fried green tomato BLT - great melding of favors none overpowering. Yum
Travis KJune 3, 2015
The chicken was incredible. My wife had a mango salad that was also different. Yardbird is very unique and a must go in Miami. The staff are sooo nice and helpful too. My wife and I love it here
WhiskyJulietJuly 25, 2014
Arguably one of SoFlo's largest selection of whiskey. The cocktails rock, too. Add this place to your bucket list. W.L. Weller, Sazerac, Stagg Jr., Pappy, Thomas Handy, Woodford Master's Collection
Eudia van RavhostJuly 27, 2022
We had the braised ribs , mango salad and rib eye with truffel fries. It was amazing. We’ll go back for the chicken and waffle.. looking forward to that!!a bit expensive but worth it😊
FaraJune 24, 2017
Food is amazing fried chicken duh!. Friendly service! Fried green tomatoes with pimento cheese and pork belly. Wow. Can't wait to be back in Florida

Somehow, the Caesar is heavenly. Good Brussels sprouts, too. A solid place to dine solo at the bar.
Charles NadeauJanuary 3, 2018
Two Hearted Ale on tap. Do you need more? Fried tomatoes, biscuits, fried chicken, mac n’ cheese, blackberry/watermelon/peach/passionfruit bourbon lemonades. Southern greatness Miami fashion.. AY PAPI
Nakia OrdosgoitiaOctober 14, 2012
Everything was amazing, fresh and full of flavor! Service was great, not what you ordinarily encounter at south beach. Try their southern chicken biscuits, fried green tomatoes and blt eggs Benedict.

Brunch is the best time to go to this southern fried spot. The cocktail menu is great and you must have one. Or two. It can be difficult to get a table, but it's worth the wait.
Jah RahmanAugust 29, 2015
A proper southern place serving classics like chicken and waffles. Try a variety of items on the menu especially the appetisers. Make sure to reserve a table before hand to avoid a lengthy wait.

The fried chicken, watermelon and waffles is all you need! Great food and large portions. And have the Watermelon Cocktail!
Emem NnamdieJuly 11, 2016
I had the chicken and waffles and watermelon with a side of macaroni and cheese. It was delicious!

Everything is delicious. Butter Lettuce and Grilled Mango Salad was great. The Fried Chicken is a must. They have great Bourbon and beers

Fantastic experience. Love the food and exceptional service. We got a little nervous about the restaurant capacity given the pandemic. I'm not throwing a red flag but just alerting folks.
AyinApril 17, 2016
Please believe the hype! I ordered the fried chicken, charred okra, cauliflower mashed potatoes, and the blackberry bourbon lemonade. They were all DIVINE! 😍
Anuja JoshiFebruary 10, 2018
Fried green tomato BLT, chicken and biscuit...orgasmic! Most of the plates are sharable but as I sat at the bar by myself, I couldn’t thank Stephen enough to give me most of the dishes for one person.
Lindsey CarpenterApril 14, 2013
Best meal in Miami! Amazing ambiance, music, food & booze! Order the white whiskey & watermelon, fried green tomatoes BLT, chicken & biscuits, & mac & cheese...all delish by southern girl standards :)
Ellen BraApril 1, 2019
Good atmosphere and food. The portions are huge (at least for a woman). The Lewellyns fine fried chicken can easily be shared by two people. The Kale salad was also very good!
John CarbucciaOctober 18, 2013
Delicious fried chicken, biscuits to die for, lemon chess pie out of this world and perfect temperature, macaroni and cheese very delicious, ribs were ok but the sauce on the ribs made the difference.
ShinaeMarch 19, 2013
Surprisingly delicious OJ. Fried chicken was a bit underwhelming. Not crispy at all. But definitely get their cheddar waffle & watermelon salad! Oh, fried green tomato was one of the best dishes ever!
JP JonesMarch 21, 2016
Don't turn up without your whole party; they'll make you wait anywhere apart for your table. Get the fried green tomatoes & the fried chicken - amazing dishes. Wash down with the blackberry lemonade.
Caress ThomasApril 23, 2018

Vladimiro MazzottiNovember 18, 2018

Great food! The biscuits are heavenly, ribs are on point, if you like okra it's good too! Mac & Cheese could use some salt and pepper.

Yardbird’s signature fried chicken dish is served with a puffy triangle of Cheddar- and herb-flecked waffle along with a refreshing minty watermelon salad and some of the sweetest honey around. Read more

This resturaunt serves southern style food, the kale salad, the crispy chicken biscuits and the mac and cheese are amazing!! The food tastes really authentic
Neel HajareMarch 13, 2022
Reallly enjoyed the fried green tomato BLT. Also got the chicken & waffles—the waffles were good and the spiced watermelon was interesting, but the chicken was disappointing considering it was $42
Ben K.July 19, 2015
Good southern food, but not sure I recommend eating such heavy cuisine in Miami Beach. Try the chicken biscuit sandwiches, BLT, shrimp and grits, and chicken and waffles.
Anna MOFebruary 13, 2016
Fried green tomatoes are very tasty and raccomanded. Amazing cocktail list and very good desserts. The pecan cheesecake is outstanding. If you eat at the bar, service is lackluster.
