Ellie Bird, in Falls Church, was opened in April 2023 by husband and wife duo Yuan and Carey Tang.

The two had been working in Washington DC's fine-dining industry, where their tasting-menu restaurant Rooster & Owl is based, NYT writer Nikita Richardson explains.

The Tangs brought Ellie Bird to their hometown.

"Think Vietnamese French onion soup with braised oxtail, cacio e pepe crossed with elote, and fried oyster larb gai," Richardson says.

Ellie Bird, 125 Founder’s Ave., Falls Church.
