State Bird Provisions started as a recipe for serving quail; it has slowly evolved into a restaurant without any programmed elements.
Owners Nicole Krasinski and Stuart Brioza have put together an urban-rustic storefront setting with an airy, organic vibe. The menu features a rotating, highly seasonal and local menu of American small plates served dim-sum style.
The combination has worked out quite well, as State Bird quickly garnered a Michelin star within a year of opening and Krasinski and Brioza won the 2015 James Beard award for Best West Coast Chef.
