At OvenBird, wood is in every detail.
From the fire that drives our kitchen to the handcrafted slats that frame our space, every grain, crack, and cut tells part of the story. Built with natural materials, shaped by heat, smoke, and time — the same elements that inspire the food coming out of our hearth.

Simple. Honest. Intentional.

Golden hour on the patio, a little fire in the kitchen, and summer on the plate.
Charred, bright, fresh, and meant to be shared outside with a glass in hand. This is the season we wait for at OvenBird.

A little glimpse into the warmth and soul of OvenBird ✨
Hanging above the fire, these birds have become part of the story — rustic, welcoming, and full of character, just like the food and people gathered here each night.

Good food. Open fire. A space that feels like home.

There’s just something about hot, fresh empanadas straight from the oven. Crisp, golden pastry giving way to a rich, savory filling — simple, comforting, and meant to be shared.

Now serving at Ovenbird. Come enjoy them fresh from the fire.

Fresh from the line and ready for the table.

Crispy sweet potato chips, bright pickled vegetables, delicate ceviche, and herbs layered together for the kind of bite that keeps you coming back for another. Simple ingredients, bold flavor, and a little fire from the kitchen.
