Black Bird - COLONEL LIGHT GARDENS

We are truly fortunate here in CLG. Recently, a fantastic Portuguese tart shop opened at Mitcham Shops, and we also welcomed Blackbird, which opened in January. I took my in-laws there for dinner tonight, along with my 2-year-old and my 3.5-year-old nephew. While it’s worth noting that they don’t have high chairs, the food was absolutely exceptional. My chicken was incredible, and everyone else enjoyed the beef brisket, which had them licking their fingers by the end of the meal. The black rice risotto was so delicious—it was my favorite dish of the night. The kids had risotto, chips, and brown rice, and everything tasted fantastic. They also offer a great selection of local wines. I highly encourage everyone to support this local restaurant; it’s truly outstanding!

We visited Black Bird for the first time last night with my parents, who were in town from another state. It did not disappoint—it's truly a hidden gem! The food was sensational; it was the best meal I've had in a long time. I ordered the beef brisket and black rice risotto, and both dishes were absolutely delicious. We will definitely be returning!

I absolutely loved it! Treat yourself and visit this place soon. The atmosphere is wonderful, and the food is truly fantastic. It's a hidden gem!

Thank you for an absolutely delicious dinner our 7 year old was a huge fan of the pork belly. The brisket and chicken were also delicious and such generous serves. The wines were lovely too. We can't wait to come back!

Just had the Pork Chicken Burger take away.... absolutely sensational!!! Have not had burgers like that for a long time (we ordered the two went halves in each). Luckily we live just around the corner, look forward to trying more on the menu. Might even try to bring the twins down for an early dinner dining in. Thanks guys!!! Takeaway dinner done beautifully
