oddBird.

Spent the evening at OddBird for our anniversary and it was an incredible experience! Cannot recommend the short rib and the bone marrow enough! If Michael is serving you, you’re in good hands. His recommendations were spot on and he genuinely made our night so special! We will be back!

One of the best burgers I’ve ever had. Best creme brulee I’ve ever had. Amazing energy and great friendly service. Drove from Toronto because this was on the top 100 best burgers in the world (#16) and it didn’t disappoint. Just amazing. Make a reservation or come early as there was a line up when we arrived! (But we were seated quickly :)

A MUST!!! If you know you’re visiting the area you must book reservations. I’m so fortunate and happy I did, as I watched countless customers politely get turned away as they were fully booked. Those people have my deepest sympathies as this was one of the best restaurants I have had within 100km! I ended up ordering half the menu, and I’ll be back to try the other half asap! Server was phenomenal, I ordered lots of different dishes at once with a request to be brought based on course setup. I’m sorry I don’t recall your name but you didn’t write down a thing and absolutely nailed dinner for us. Thank you all soooo much for a phenomenal experience and evening, I will see you again very soon!

We had an absolutely amazing experience. First, the server (Michael) was knowledgeable, and attentive. The food (blackened octopus, ribs) was very appetizing and very well prepared, the oysters were fresh, delicious and served with several sauces, our favourites were pickle and cherry. The creme brulee was simply fabulous. The New Orleans Horse Collar drink had a perfectly balanced mix of flavors with a lingering finish. If you're looking for a top noch experience I highly recommend the Odd Bird . Online reservations are now required.

Such a wonderful experience! The food was delicious, as were the drinks. Our server, Michael, was welcoming and offered some great suggestions throughout the evening. Can't wait to visit again!

I’ve been enjoying the chef-driven delights and unpretentious vibe ever since Scott and Justin opened OddBird in 2017. I always love the modern twists and flavors they bring to their creative dishes. The ambiance is super chill and laid-back, with exposed brick and small tables — it has that neighborhood feel, like you’re “in the know.” We sat at the bar this time, and it was cool watching the crew create their magic. The oysters, accompanied by a series of eight sauces and freshly ground horseradish, were great. The blackened octopus was delicious — tender and bursting with flavor. The best fried chicken sandwich I’ve ever had — light, crisp, with a heavenly sauce. The truffle fries did what they do best — and what better pairing than a hoppy cold IPA to go with all the inventiveness? A great culinary adventure for food lovers who appreciate quality and signature dishes. Saluti!

"Wow! What an incredible dining experience! The ambiance was fantastic, the service impeccable, and the food absolutely delicious. The Nashville fried chicken sandwich was astonishingly good, and the oysters were fresh and flavorful, complemented by an array of 8 delightful sauces. We also tried the beef tartare, which was expertly prepared and absolutely delicious. For my birthday, they surprised me with Pumpkin Fritters with cinnamon, caramel, and powdered sugar. I'm not usually a dessert fan, but this was perfectly balanced in sweetness—a real treat! If you're a foodie, this place is a must-visit. Highly recommended!" Oh.. sorry for the broken frame. My bad

This culinary gem is a masterclass in bold flavors, refined execution, and an atmosphere that hums with fun energy. Its menu is a dynamic showcase of innovation, offering dishes that are both thoughtfully composed and deeply satisfying. The blackened octopus is a triumph: tender, charred to perfection, and balanced with bright, contrasting flavors. The lobster rigatoni, rich and indulgent, highlights the chef’s skill in seafood. The Australian Wagyu picanha,and the Seared Quebec Foie Gras, are nothing short of sublime - underscoring the kitchen’s ability to transform humble ingredients into culinary gold. Each plate is designed not only for taste but for sheer visual artistry, a feast for both the palate and the eyes. A particular standout is the escargot, reimagined with a modern touch that enhances its delicate texture and deep umami profile. Bathed in a luxurious sauce, each bite is a testament to the restaurant’s ability to elevate classic ingredients into something extraordinary. Service is impeccable—attentive yet unobtrusive, knowledgeable yet warm. The staff’s expertise shines through in their thoughtful recommendations, ensuring that each guest feels not just welcomed, but truly cared for. OddBird is not merely a restaurant; it is an experience. A place where flavors are bold, execution is precise, and every detail—from the ambiance to the final bite—is carefully curated. A true standout in St. Catharines, one that demands a return visit, and one that deserves every bit of its stellar reputation!
