Ryebird — Restaurant in Fairfield

Absolutely DO NOT ORDER TAKE OUT, The staff is wonderful ordering process is nice although I will admit they don’t usually answer the phone.

Issue 1- we got there in 30 minutes, which was the direction they gave us, but the food was pretty soggy by the time we got home the containers don’t really have any vent holes so all of it it became soggy

Issue 2- my buffalo chicken wings had to be put in the air fryer. They were basically sludge on the outside.

Issue 3- The cheese bread that we ordered wasn’t fully baked it had that almost Play-Doh like texture of bread that hasn’t finished cooking, and it tasted very yeasty/ i’ve made that mistake before when baking in my own home so I can definitely recognize the signs. IM NOT SURE ITS SAFE FOR CONSUMPTION

Issue 4- The Caesar salad I ordered for $14 had a solid cup of lettuce in it insane. (I’m 5,1 so my hand is SMALL I wear a size 5 ring for perspective) And for some reason, it didn’t taste like Cesar? It was pre-tossed so due to the container it was in, the lettuce became mega soggy, and because there wasn’t enough dressing, it tasted bitter and like only lettuce since they didn’t include extra dressing on the side.

Maybe the food is better in person honestly because of the price I’m afraid to take a chance you are correct just like they put it in really awful containers for the stuff. You don’t need containers a little like the steam needs to be able to escape and boil the food.

I don’t know there’s lots of competition in Fairfield when it comes to restaurant of the style so I don’t see why anyone would eat and or order out...

I walked in expecting “good,” but the salmon alone made it memorable. Perfectly cooked, great flavor, zero shortcuts. You can tell they care about what hits the plate.

The fries? Crispy, salty, and impossible to stop picking at. The kind you keep eating even while saying “last one.” Yeah… good luck with that.

And whoever’s behind the bar knows what they’re doing — the Aperol Spritz was clean, refreshing, and actually mixed like someone’s had more than one before. Not flat, not watered down — just solid.

On top of that, the music hits the right vibe — not annoying, not background noise, just good tracks that make the whole place feel alive.

Ryebird doesn't try too hard — it just works. Good food, good drinks, good soundtrack. Exactly the kind of place you end up staying longer than...

Ryebird has officially raised the bar. The smash burger is on a whole different level—perfectly crispy edges, juicy center, and stacked with flavor in every bite. You can feel the care that goes into it, and it’s honestly one of the best burgers I’ve had anywhere.

The garlic parmesan wings? Unreal. They’re crispy, coated generously in that rich, buttery garlic parmesan goodness, and somehow stay juicy on the inside. If you love wings, these are a must. They don’t just hit the spot—they dominate it.

And don’t even get me started on the fries—hot, golden, and seasoned just right. They’re the kind of fries you keep eating even when you’re full. The perfect sidekick to an already perfect meal.

Ryebird is doing everything right. If you haven’t been yet… go....
