What people say, in short
Yardbird at the Venetian draws broad recommendations for Southern cooking. One diner praises both the bone-in fried chicken and chicken-and-waffles meal; other comments single out shrimp and grits and deviled eggs. A diner who usually dislikes casino restaurant value still enjoys this one. The caveats include a repeat visitor reporting variable experiences and another warning that a busy evening without a reservation can mean less comfortable lounge seating.
