- JJennVIPSan Francisco Bay Area •22 reviews5.0Dined on Sep 27, 2024Great experience at Bird Dog. We appreciate the friendly service, exceptional hospitality, and delicious food. The french fries are seriously the best I’ve had; crunchy, innovative shape, perfectly spiced. Sounds dramatic, but try them for yourself! The wings are great, and we always order the pretzels. We plan to visit again.More infoBird Dog BarPrice: Expensive• American• Lawrence•3.7
