Absolutely delicious. The food was fresh, delivered fast and so tasty. We order the banquet so we could try a few different items. So glad we didn’t go with a bigger banquet option as there was plenty of food to satisfy. We also had some warm sake which went perfectly with our meal. They were fully booked with no spare tables and this did not discourage service, they staff were friendly and helpful.

To be honest… we had really high expectations before we came to and yes it was so disappointed… none of the skewers were good. Some even made us think that the chef forgot to put the seasoning which we can barely feel they had…the chicken were dry.. the scallops taste good but over cooked. In my opinion, this place is overrated and overpriced. Ok the staffs were friendly. But I don’t think I will recommend my friends to come.

Fantastic and HIGHLY RECOMMEND. The food, service, ambiance, sake, shochu and everything were perfect. We've been to the other location in Fortitude and though it was good, this one feels even better and makes you feel like you are in Japan. Food and service were excellent. Everything was so good. Go! Go! Go!

Bird's Nest is a thrive Ng Street style Japanese skewer restaurant with a great vibe and atmosphere. They are regularly busy and booking is highly recommended, but for good reason. The food here is brilliant! Good value, great serving sizes and great menu variety to cater for everyone. Drinks list is good with Sake, wines, beers both local and Japanese. Service is fast and friendly. Great experience and brilliant flavours. Recommend for top, top food.

Went to Birds nest for Sunday birthday dinner with the family. The restaurant is small, but the ambiance and decorations were lovely. We enjoyed a number of dishes including chicken skins, sasami, torimomo, butabara, tsukune (absolutely tasty), prawns and the infamous momo cocktails. Good value for money. Tasty food, and a good selection of drinks however service was a bit off. Would be very happy to go back again and try the rest of the menu.

Went for lunch on a Saturday, service was good. Ordered a few different skewers which mostly tasted nice with the different condiments. There was also complimentary miso soup for lunch. However, 3 dishes were a bit disappointing - lotus chips were over fried and hard, the gizzards were a bit undercooked which didn't taste so good and tare onigiri tasted a bit bland. Overall it was quite pricey for the amount you get with each dish. We wanted yakitori but there are very limited options in Brisbane.
