Lovebird Kitchen — Restaurant in Easthampton

Lovebird Kitchen is one of my absolute favorites in the Valley. Located inside Luthier's, it offers a relaxed atmosphere with live music nearly every night. The bartenders are always friendly and attentive, and the space draws a lively, welcoming crowd.

The menu may be small, but every dish is crafted with incredible attention to detail. I wish more restaurants would focus on quality over quantity like this! The rotating menu keeps each visit fresh and exciting, and I’ve yet to try something that wasn’t fantastic. That said, the standout staple is the Katsu Burger - hands down one of the best burgers I’ve ever had. Small confession: I've eaten 3 in one sitting - it's that good. To top it off, the consistency is remarkable; every dish is just as excellent as the last.

The owners and chefs, Peter and Christina, are some of the kindest, most down-to-earth people you’ll ever meet. Lovebird is a gem, and I look forward to every visit. It’s firmly in my regular rotation of local favorites. Thanks, Peter and Christina, for always delivering...

We went here for my spouse's birthday dinner - my spouse found it - and what a find! It's a laid back vibe, food served on compostable plates with live music "piped in" from the stage in the room next door (Backstage Bar). On a Tuesday night at 7 pm, we were seated right away. The menu is small because of the focus on excellence in quality, yet enough variety for me to find a gluten-free dinner. The menu does change so check the website for the daily offerings. For dinner, we had the Watermelon and Baby Tomato Salad with queso fresco on mixed greens (delish!), Pork Katsu Sandwich and Loaded Fries. Pork Katsu (breaded, fried cutlet) is Japanese, and the chefs did not disappoint. The cutlet was crispy & juicy - it brought my spouse right back to our years living in Japan. We indulged in the one dessert offered: Sweet Cream Panacotta with Blueberry Compote and Fresh Basil. Yum! We will definitely be back to this gem in...

Easthampton already has a high bar when it comes to dining out, boasting a handful of the best restaurants in the Pioneer Valley, with a few of them right on Cottage Street. From the first day Lovebird Kitchen opened they nestled comfortably among the ranks of the best places in town to eat! The menu is creative and always fresh. The service is fast and friendly. It’s affordable too! One of the few places you could say “I’ll have one of everything” and mean it. And don’t let the compostable paper plates fool you. This food would just as easily be at home on big fancy dinnerware with flamboyant garnishes and art school plating. It tastes just as good without all that and coupled with the down home atmosphere and friendly bartenders at Luthiers Co-op, where you’ll be entertained by local live music most nights of the week, it’s a solid home run. 10/10 would...
