Big Bird Sushi Bar & Thai — Restaurant in Jefferson Township

Sushi and Thai Close to Home!

This was our first time attending a soft opening—and it was amazing. I’ve been watching this location evolve over time, keeping an eye out for the “We’re Open” sign. As soon as it went up, I brought my family in for a bite.

We got a platter of apps to start which was a good size and yummy. Spicy miso soup was hot and delicious. Love the seaweed salad. The wide pad Thai was very good and the perfect portion. The panang curry noodle was the best part!
