"We made reservations to go here on my wife's 40th birthday. The online reservation program and the Blackbird website said the restaurant was open, but when we got there...it was closed. We had to scramble in the heat and humidity to find a new restaurant (and this was an added frustration since my wife is 25 weeks pregnant). In the grand scheme of things, this isn't a big deal. In the world of restaurant etiquette, however, the failure to sync your hours online is an amateur move. There was even a second couple who discovered this mess-up at the same time as we did, leaving us to wonder how many people arrive at a closed Blackbird on a daily basis. With plenty of restaurants in the Twin Cities, it is now quite easy to decide not to return to Blackbird."
