In the neighborhood with no shortage of starry eateries from Monsieur Benjamin to Petit Crenn, Nightbird is an even worthier addition offering former-Manresa alum in a bouqtiue eatery with accompanying mixology bar. The facade blends into the Gough thoroughfare, leading to a series of small parlor rooms with timber floors, smooth plaster walls and very-compact tables. An eat-at counter compliments the additional Linden Room, a separate mixology cocktail bar that sure to be a hipster hideaway for decades to come.
