Blue Birdy is a newcomer in West Hollywood, located two doors down from the legendary Whiskey A-Go-Go on Sunset Strip.

| Happy Hour plates:Brussel Sprouts, Edemame, Beef Sliders, Chicken Salad and Chicken Wings. |
Blue Birdy opened its doors 5 months ago in early 2024 and took the place of Justin Queso restaurant. French chef and owner Jean Claude Mahdavi is no stranger to success since he’s been in the restaurant business for 10 years, as the owner of Joxer Daly’s in Culver City - which is an Irish Sports Bar with a neighborhood feel, "When I was growing up, I heard all about Sunset Strip, just like Champs-Elysees Street, filled with lots of history".
 |
| Blue Birdy has a French-influenced menu with Jean Claude family’s recipes, originated from France. He knows what good food is and how to create it fast, with his Happy Hour special menu, Monday to Friday, 4pm to 7pm. Prices range from $6 to $14 dollar a plate. |
Jean Claude said, “I want my customers to feel comfortable at Blue Birdy, a place that they can come to and leave the stress of their day behind, enjoy great libations and wonderfully inspired gastropub cuisine.It has inside seating as well as a front street-level patio and a back patio".
He continued, "I did all the interiors myself, from building the bar and the wall to the light fixtures and the floor colors. Sound-proofing was a major consideration; I wanted people to feel comfortable and never feel like it’s too loud for a conversation".

Blue Birdy’s menu includes beer, soft drinks and specialty cocktails as The Boom Ba Da with its smooth lemon flavor and and Strawberry Fields, which is a nice refreshing blend of champagne vodka and strawberry puree.
Entree menu items include Lemon Herb Chicken, Steak and Fries, Fish & Chips, Teriyaki Salmon, and lots of Burgers - all variations. The Short Rib Benedict is a brunch at its best, which is Mahdavi's favorite dish. The Noodle Salad is perfect for the health-conscious as well as their tempura asparagus.
