The food is always excellent with a HUGE sushi menu, we still haven’t tried it all yet but we have loved everything we have tried! Our 6 year olds ask for it all the time!

The interior is pleasant and warm, and if we hadn’t been on the road I could see having a lovely book club meeting or a quick lunch for 2 here. Great ambiance, great service. Also such a unique and local food option vs rushing through a fast food drive-thru. We have family in the area and will absolutely be returning!”

Classic Burger & BBQ Inc 1732 15th St N, Bessemer Barbecue • $

“I ordered to of the #6 specials which was burgers, my two loved it. The burgers was homemade and nice size. It was worth it. I ordered a sampler for myself which was 2 ribs with bone, chopped BBQ, and 1/4 chicken which was the breast and wing, with Mac n cheese, and Baked beans.
Now my ribs was kinda on the dry side, the chopped BBQ was about the same, so I skipped out on trying the chicken. The Mac n cheese was a disappointment, just broke my little heart!. The bake beans was ok.
I can't say I won't visit anymore, but I will not be going out my way to go there.”

W T's Restaurant & Lounge 820 9th St N, Bessemer Bar & Grill • $

“There are some restaurants you eat at once and enjoy, and then there are places like WT’s that feel like they’re stitched into the fabric of the community. After 39 years of being open, this place isn’t just a restaurant—it’s an icon in Bessemer. Honestly, it deserves to be considered a historic landmark.

We came in and had the bologna sandwich and the shrimp salad, and both were absolutely outstanding. The bologna sandwich was piled high, grilled just right, and hit every nostalgic note you could hope for. The shrimp salad was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. On top of that, the soup of the day was rich and comforting—true scratch-made goodness that you don’t find just anywhere. Even the sweet tea, served in a mason jar, felt right at home here.

But WT’s isn’t just about the food. It’s about the people. Meeting Wanda and Patti was an absolute highlight—they welcomed us like family, and that warmth is exactly why so many people keep coming back year after year. Reading through other reviews, you can see the same story repeated over and over: great food, great service, and the kind of Southern hospitality that makes you feel like you belong.

The atmosphere is cozy and unpretentious—nothing fancy, just real and genuine. You can feel the history in the place, and it’s clear how much love and effort has gone into keeping it thriving for nearly four decades.

If you’re anywhere near Bessemer, you owe it to yourself to stop here. Whether it’s for a quick lunch, a hearty dinner, or just to soak up the atmosphere of a true local gem, WT’s delivers. It’s the kind of place that reminds you why independent restaurants matter so much—because they’re built on tradition, pride, and community.

WT’s is more than a meal—it’s an experience, and one you won’t forget”

Wings were cooked perfectly and still hot when I got them home, sauce has a great and the hear level is not ofer the top!! I asked for my sauce in the side as well as extra sauce because I like to really drench em in a good sauce while sitting down with a cold beer and some Alabama football!! I wish their sauce cups were a little bigger but I made it stretch!! I am already wanting more and I just left there about an hour and a half ago!! Next time I am gonna try the TNT sauce!!”

“Sweet and Sour sauce needs alot work. It's thin and flavor doesn't last when eating the chicken with it. Chicken Fried Rice on the other hand is really good. P.s. They did not give me silverware. Unsure if that is their normal.”

Chick-fil-A 6000 Harris Lane, Bessemer Fast Food • $

“This place would have gotten 5 stars. Friendly staff. The only downfall of this place is the setup of the drive-through area. There just isn't enough room. It is unfortunately not conducive to high traffic flows. This particular location would have gotten 3 stars for me instead due this drawback, however, the staff really tried their best to keep traffic moving steadily and without issues. This place, otherwise, is 5 stars.”

Taco Bell 5050 Bond Blvd, Bessemer Fast Food • $

“I ordered your new Cantina Chicken Quesadilla, as advertised on TV. It was nothing like was advertised. They look thick with large chicken chunks and stacked high on the plate. It was actually very flat and very few pieces, not chunks of chicken. Very disappointed. Won’t believe next Taco Bell commercial, and probably won’t visit for a long while.”

“Let me just say, this location humbled me, extremely! They messed up on 2 things in my order and I have a son with autism sooooo it's a whole meltdown. However Nadia corrected it and made it right while being polite and apologized (ty nadia). But when my husband went to get the order correction. He inquired about the happy meal toys toy a man working with a suit style uniform, and said that our son with autism has been trying to get one specific lil toy. Idk if he was a manager or the owner but he gifted my husband the toy our son has been wanting. And my heart is extremely full! Thank you whoever you are, you made our whole summer! 🫶”
