Beautiful and chic space. The appetizers were divine especially that they were accommodating in adding an ingredient to the bruschetta that is not included on the menu. Entrees were perfect and tasty. The drinks did their job. I left happier than I came.

Enjoyed a delicious anniversary dinner last night at Byrd and Baldwin! It was our third time visiting and does not disappoint. We shared the crab cake appetizer and each had the fillet mignon. The crab cake had minimal filler (if any) and the steaks were tender and cooked perfectly. This is a go to place for a special evening out!

Christmas day brunch was amazing. First time away from family and friends for the holiday and it was surprisingly nice. Everything we ate was very flavorful and exciting. Karrina our waitress was exceptional. We are already making plans to go back next year.
