    We always go to Upper Shirley winery the day before Thanksgiving. The people are always friendly and very accommodating and the food is always good. On a nice day it's great to sit on the huge porch out back or on the lawn.

    Not sure what was better the food or the service. Wonderful time. We requested a windows seat and were placed to the far left of the room. There was a large ‘party’ going on at the far right so we appreciated being seated far away. The group was respectful of the noise level though. The menu choices from starters to dessert was so varied and interesting and the oysters were to die for.

    As a local to the Littleton, NC area we are very lucky to have a restaurant to the level that the Blue Jay Bistro brings. This was not our first visit, but every dinner with the exceptional staff is rememberable. The menu changes with seasons and is always easy to find something delicious. On this occasion, it was my birthday with special friends and everyone's meal was perfectly prepared. The steak and duck were my favorite on this visit. The decor of the restaurant is very well done and comfortable. We look forward to coming back!

    Just hope when you go there, they have what you order because they didn’t for me. But the food is good.
