I love the food and the vibe and the friendly staff at Freebird. There’s something on the menu for everyone….Burgers, wings and southern style food but also healthy salads. Few places have live music so love to pop in on Friday and Sundays when some famous faces show up to jam. Great all around restaurant!

The food was absolutely delicious. I highly recommend the shrimp and grits. The chicken and waffles and the country breakfast is a must try. Overall everything was perfect. The restaurant is beautiful and the friendly greeting when you enter is very much appreciated. The staff are professional and very friendly. I will absolutely return when I'm back in White Plains.

Food at Freebird is always good. We went tonight for my birthday dinner before a show at the Capital theater. All of our food was solid across the board, but I wanted to shout out the bar staff and our server. I requested a very specific alcohol free cocktail, and the bartender was all in. Served me a beautiful delicious drink, in a pretty glass with a garnish. The server was accommodating and did not act like I was crazy asking for apple cider , amongst other things, shaken, served up in a cocktail glass! It was delicious and beautiful and I felt like a grownup. Thank you for being incredibly kind and cooperative!

We were very impressed with the food we had for lunch. The calamari was the best I have had in a long, long time. We would definitely go back just for the calamari. We also had the crabcakes and the flatbed pizza both of which were excellent. Our server Kim was wonderful.

Great service, nice sized portions and delicious food. My husband and I shared the brussel sprouts and fried pickles and had a sandwich each. Plenty of food and we left with leftovers. Also my husband had the maple mule and it was sooo good.

We have been coming to Freebird since it opened. It has consistently had great food and even better service. The staff are on top of their game from seating to check. It has the ability to be your local joint and also a great place where you bring friends and family. We have been bringing friends and family here for many years and they have always commented on how nice the staff are and how great (and fast) the food is. Especially during brunch, Freebird's food is so good! We will definitely continue going here for many years to come!
