Glutened here, badly. If you are not celiac and CC is not an issue then the food was delicious and definitely a splurge for a very special occasion. Prices are insane, on par with the nicer steakhouses in the area. Unfortunately, we were extremely ill after eating here, after dropping close to $200 on lunch. There are much safer options in the area for celiacs.

By far the best GF fried chicken you will ever have in your life. I always went to the one in Las Vegas and was beyond to excited to learn that it was coming to Dallas.

Eat here, you will not regret it (well, your waistline might regret it a bit).

We came for Sunday brunch & loved it! I ordered the chicken & waffles, gluten free & there was enough food to share it with both of my daughters. We got 4 pieces of chicken, 4 waffles & 8 small pieces of watermelon & we loved every bite of it! We also ordered the corn as a side dish & I liked it even more!

We have been to the one in Vegas. When we saw they had one here, we decided to visit on our stopover in Dallas. I think we had to remind them that one of the sauces has beer. But overall , beat Chicken and Waffles. My wife and I share the Big Bird, and she is gf, but I enjoy it just as much. We invited family and friends and they enjoyed it all. Parking is in the building, entrance same side and get validated with the hostess. I think it is B2 level and take the elevator to street level, and Yard Bird is right there across the small outdoor plaza.

They told me it would take 30 minutes to prepare my fried chicken because it would take a little while longer to get the process going. The fried chicken was the best I've ever had gluten free or not. Worth every dollar.

This restaurant is beautiful, and the food tasted amazing! Sadly, I am horribly sick after eating there. I can tell it is classic gluten contamination. Will cross this off my list.

Fried chicken & Brussel sprouts were amazing! Street corn was good too. Key lime pie (not GF) was good per friends. On the pricey side, but this was a special occasion. Definitely recommend.

Oh my gosh. The gf fried chicken and waffles were amazing. Separate oil, separate waffle maker. Very safe and excellent. Also, a bit spendy $42 for 1 lunch. Enough food for two though. Taking my leftovers with me.

Had a wonderful meal. Many options on menu are GF or can be made GF. Had the GF adjusted chicken and waffles, where they used a separate fryer and batter. Chicken was DELICIOUS and it’s rare to get fried chicken!

I’ve been to the Vegas location probably a half dozen times. Every time I go I make a point to visit that restaurant so when I saw it was coming to Dallas I was so excited! A lot of new restaurants take a while to perfect things but Yardbird Dallas is just as good if not better than their other locations. The food is excellent! The GF options are kind of limited but if you’re going here you better be going for the fried chicken! It’s exceptional, cooked to perfection and hard to put down! They can even do GF waffles which are made on dedicated equipment. The GF frier is also dedicated to ensure the safety of their guests. I have a super severe allergy and felt full but great after! Service was top notch as well! Our waitress Cathy was attentive and knowledgeable. She helped me put something custom together for my meal which I really appreciated. Brunch, lunch or dinner this place is my new Dallas fav! I’m so excited they finally started offering takeout! YOU MUST GO!

Upon arrival waiter noted my gf preference on our reservation. He was knowledgeable and pointed out options for me on menu. Not a designated menu, but items are marked. I choice the gf Lewellyn Fried Chicken last evening and the southern corn. It was the best chicken I’ve had since going gf 2-3 years ago. It was so good! My gluten eating husband ate part of mine (since the portion is 1/2 chicken). He said he could tell a subtle difference from the regular chicken, but it was still yummy. The corn had a small mix of bacon and cheese. Also very good.

It’s a little pricy, as it’s Vegas. The cost for the two of us was about $135 with tip. It included my wine and his old Fashion.

To be able to find GF chicken and waffles was amazing. We got there right at opening and we were served quickly. We probably could have shared the meal. It was the best.

We called ahead and had a reservation. Had read all the rave reviews and were really anticipating a stellar experience. I am also allergic to corn. Soooo, the first of many difficulties: The *main* entree for g/f is chicken and waffles. Your cannot order the chicken tenders, not available g/f. So, I ordered the $42 chicken and waffles. Sans waffles, b/c they had corn starch and meal in them. Chicken on my plate was tough, soggy and stringy. If you come from a tradition of food, and know what fried chicken is supposed to taste like; you may want to go elsewhere. To add insult to injury, 18% gratuity. Oh, not to worry, they pointed out you can add to it! 😳
