“This was our first time and it was absolutely excellent from start to finish! The manager, Brandon, was SO genuinely welcoming and accommodating. Our server, Parker, was flawless and so much fun (request him!). Every dish was perfectly cooked, refined and full of flavor (smoked salmon, fried green tomatoes, fried oysters, rainbow trout, swordfish with andouille, ribeye with truffle fondue). The cocktails and wine all perfect. Will definitely return and want to thank Blueprint for a truly wonderful experience!“
“In town visiting and decided to try this place. Glad I did, because from the service, to the food, and atmosphere, it exceeded expectations. Krystal took our orders and although I have no dietary restrictions, my friend was ordering for his wife and was very happy that they were able to accommodate with items being gluten free. Especially on Tuesdays. Will definitely return and visit.Ordered the hot chicken and waffles. You’re able to substitute the wings for tenders. Waffle had flavor by itself and the fresh warm peaches with house made butter complimented each other very well.“
“Food was great, but the service was stellar! Rebecca was fantastic about my food allergies and even helped move us from an inside table to outside, so we could enjoy the beautiful evening! Absolutely wonderful evening.Dietary restrictions: They are wonderfully aware of the ingredients in the food. Anything you need excluded they will make it happen.“

“just made my fourth profit withdrawal with Mr Ralph Carico, his team were very responsive when it came to questions or concerns as a first time trader, He’s the right one here with his help I was able to get profit, The process was very smooth, Thank you Ralph Carico“
“Our waitress is super friendly and made us feel at comfort when it was our 1st time in Alabama and at Mudtown.I hardly eat fried pickles but Mudtown's fried pickles is beyond DELICIOUS!!! Fresh, crunchy and seasoned just right--LOVE IT!! The Shrimp and grits is really good. I went all out and got warm chocolate chip cookies with vanilla ice cream drizzle with chocolate fudge syrup-- spectacular!! Definitely wouldn't mind coming back again!“
“We were told that the best burger in Birmingham is made at Back Forty. We were not, however, told about all of their amazing beers. Or the great restaurant/outdoor area. Or the fantastic service and friendly servers/cooks. This is one of the must-dine locations in BHAM.“
“I had the goat pepper soup with fufu and it was incredible. The meat was falling off the bone and the sauce was so thick and full of well blended spices it reminded me of a curry. Hearty portions and excellent service. 10/10 - thank you Sahani Kitchen! ?“
“We have had our company party here for the last couple of years. We have 20 seated in their party room. A little cramped but still workable for all those folks. Food and service has been outstanding!! Any food choice will be above average but the Apple beignets are a must have and truly special.“
“I was in town for a concert . My initial choice (traditional American)was full and my belly couldn’t wait any longer . So we turned the corner and found this little gem . The service was a walk through the flavor profile of each meat … which I ended up getting all three . The Jasmine rice with the little burnt pieces add the much missing flavour in many dishes . The chicken , steak or the lamb you can not go wrong . A must if you’re down town or anywhere for that matter.“
“Salad very flavorful with protein addition grilled chicken (upcharge). Fruit fresh. Opted to add a smoothie. Service 4 stars only due to 3+ desired smoothie option choices unavailable, however, server, was accomodating to recommend creating one.“
“There is nothing bad that you can say about this place! Every single time that we’ve been here, we’ve had an amazing experience. From service, food, seasonal food choices, drinks, and desserts, it’s just a great place to eat, and have a quick meal or a meeting or a leisurely dinner. We tend to go when we have just a little time to go in and have a quick bite and something to drink on our way to an event or something, but we went to a business meeting here a month ago, and it was, a great experience as well. They have a separate room that you can holdings in room for projector screen and such.“
“Paramount is the perfect sports bar for families. With plenty of TVs, everyone gets a great view of the game. It stands out with an arcade area for kids and an impressive food and beer menu that goes beyond typical sports bar offerings. The large roll-up doors that open to a patio are a hit on nice days, blending indoor comfort with the outdoor vibe. It's my top pick for anyone wanting to enjoy sports (especially with kids).“
“We recently had an anniversary party at The Wine Loft and it was so wonderful! We had our wedding reception there 10 years ago, so we were excited to host another event at The Wine Loft. The whole team worked hard to make it a successful event (especially Kristin). We hope to be back in another 10 years :)“
“first time there today and I'm sad that I'm just now discovering this place. Liz and Jodi were so sweet and helpful. my drink and breakfast burrito were amazing. and the whole atmosphere of the place is very cool. i work from home a lot but will definitely bring my laptop up here soon.“
“Enjoyable & wonderful food. Always fresh & delish. Great service. Mo & Matt are long timers & will make sure you are well taken care of. Though you will be full at the end of your meal, be sure to try the cheesecake covered in whipped cream. Wow...enough for several to share a bite!Kid-friendliness: Sandwiches & fruits are kid friendly.Wheelchair accessibility: Ramp close by at Subway end.“
“It was our first time for our anniversary. The atmosphere was very nice. The service was the best service I’ve ever had at a restaurant the food was very unique and excellent. We will be making this a tradition to come here for our anniversary from here on out“
“We were looking for an authentic Alabama lunch experience and found it with Ted’s. We arrived towards the end of the lunch service and found them friendly and welcoming upon entering the space. Free, ample parking, available seating and staff smiles helped us feel at home from the moment we entered. The vegetables were my favorite and immediately took me back to my great aunt’s cooking. Prices were very reasonable. Highly recommend.“
“Have been going to this place for so many years. Don't get to go as much as would like but I really enjoy the chicken and dressing , macaroni & cheese, and the green beans. Most of the time the rolls. Unfortunately last time they were hard. My dad got the veggie plate and really liked all his options as well.“
“Went in to grab a quick lunch and chose the Italian sub. Everything on it was fresh and the meat used was of good quality as well. It's nice to be able to get a sub and actually taste the individual ingredients instead of the usual bland mess thrown at us by most chains.“
“Guys yesterday I got the chance to try The Essential. Not going to lie I only came here because they made the list of 25 best burgers in Alabama so of course I hade to try it. However we had to get some other items to try. To start off the place was very nice and welcoming not a huge place either but not too small. A very nice bar, great place for friends and small family gatherings or even a nice date night. 8/10 I also really loved the open kitchen they had you could see the chefs working hard and getting the dishes out. Our waitress (forgot her name) was probably hands down one of the best waitresses I have ever had and even got some up sales out of me. Also got to meet who I think was either the manager or the owner not sure but he was very nice too. 10/10 on customer service. APPETIZER: BAKED MOZZARELLA (Lioni cheese, calabrian sauce, fontina). This was so freaking good its hard to explain but I'm going to do my best. It's baked mozzarella but eating it you'd definitely think it was fried but it was not. The sauce was so good its not marinara sauce kind of is but with a slight spicy kick. I absolutely devoured this thing. Probably my favorite dish of the whole night. 10/10 We also recieved free focaccia bread which is one of my favorite breads and it was so good. I was not a big fan of the ricotta cheese blend though it's just me I'm not a fan of ricotta cheese lol. But the bread itself was top notch. So fluffy and yet properly toasted and buttery. 8.5/10 Now for what I and all of you are waiting for: CHEESEBURGER (Bear Creek beef, big mac style, fries) This burger was so fresh and delicious don't let the picture fool you it was not very big but still very delicious. The Big Mac style sauce was good. The ingredients you could easily tell were very fresh but I feel like seasoning wasn't executed well and lacked salt and pepper. Fries were cut fresh very good and well seasoned. Do I think it deserves to be on the top 25 list? Yes but what they are charging for it I think it's a bit much for what you actually recieve. 8.9/10 Second entrée was: HALF CHICKEN PIRI PIRI (guajillo marinade, peanut-lime gremolata, fries) This was some flavorful juicy chicken Piri Piri definitely done right however correct me if I'm wrong but half chicken means half a chicken right because we only recieved a butterflied chicken breast. Maybe I'm missing something here and someone can help me understand. 9/10 Last but not least dessert: CARROT CAKE (swiss meringue buttercream, whipped cheesecake) The dessert menu wasn't very extravagant and very limited but I found out they own their own bakery so the cakes were made in house so we got the carrot it. It was very good and very moist however it had coconut all over it and I flat out don't like coconut it's a texture thing not a flavor thing. For the price you pay for it I definitely expected a bigger slice then what we recieved. But with that being said 8.5/10 Would I come back here? Yes! Do I recommend this place? Yes! However I think for what you're paying for some for the items I think the portions should be adjusted accordingly. Staff was spectacular food was great and I really enjoyed my time here.“
“The chicken salad and several other meals were tasty! Yikes...we received menus 15 minutes after being seated. We had to get our own silverware and 1-2 tables were dirty. Yikes. We were really hungry after hours of basketball so...we stayed. The pita chips made it worth it!!“
“First time for this location. The staff were friendly and answered questions I had about the menu. I chose the Buffalo chicken wrap with the side salad. The wrap was good and flavorful. The side salad could have been a meal in itself. Overall a good choice for lunch. I recommend it to anyone.“
“Rojo is a staple in the area and I can’t imagine Birmingham without it! Tucked in beautiful Highland Park this gem is a must stop for the local atmosphere and diverse eats. Many gluten free/vegan options, dine in or to go… stuck at home? DoorDash it!!! You have to try the David’s Quesadilla, it’s a personal favorite. Stop in for open mic night for a good time or visit during any other special nights/events. Thank you for everything Rojo!❤️Dietary restrictions: Dairy free, Gluten Free, Vegan options“
“We came here for a birthday dinner, the food was great! We ate early around 4:30 and got seated right away with no reservations! I personally got the Filet with Brussels sprouts - that was one of the best steaks I have had in a minute! The rest of us got salmon and a variety of sides! Everything was delicious! For dessert we got the cookie skillet! Definitely worth trying! The restaurant was super clean, the staff was attentive, and food was prepared great (looks and taste)! It’s alittle more on the expensive side, but you’re paying for and getting quality! I definitely recommend it!“
“Always a good time here. Hands down, some of the best hamburgers in b'ham. Service is so friendly, your order is taken quickly and there are so many beer options to try!Parking: There is a parking lot behind the building but spots fill up quickly. Street parking is available, it usually isn't hard to find a spot semi-close by.“
“When I walked in the door, I was greeted by someone. I was told there would be a 5 minute wait to sit down. It didn’t take the whole 5 minutes for me and two additional people to be seated. The business was quite full but everyone appeared to be enjoying themselves, smiling and eating. As soon as we were seated a waitress took our drink orders along with our food. We received our drinks right away. It took approximately 10 minutes for us to get our food. The food was delicious. I am impressed. Great service overall. 5 ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“
“Went here after a cheer competition! We had a large party and were set quickly! Our waitress had multiple large parties and was absolutely fabulous! Food was amazing! The kids enjoyed the outside area while waiting on food! Very accommodating to allergies and picky eaters! Highly recommend! Only con is that they don’t have one in Murfreesboro, TN!!“
“I absolutely adore UC the food is amazing and the staff is superb. I visit this location frequently and the only negative is when you walk in there its an odor not sure what it is from but there is one that is strong…you can smell it when you walk in the door and it never goes away. Other than that i would have given the atmosphere 5 stars“
“Went for lunch and would highly recommend. Nice atmosphere, rustic and casual with fast service. Had the brisket sandwich and the chick fried sandwich and both were delicious. The brisket melted in my mouth and the chicken was cooked just right. Even the bread was amazing. The sandwiches came with a side and the mushroom soup was AMAZING. The portions were just right, filling but not huge. Although the food we ordered was heavier it wasn't grease or too much just devious. Good value. Will definitely be returning on my next trip to Birmingham.“
“Very nice experience at the Scenic View Cafe. The breakfast was good, and the Coffee was excellent. The hospitality was hands down first class. Here I am, pictured with the owner. Thank you, Ms. SHIRLEY for a wonderful start to my birthday weekend.“
“So, today was my bday and all I wanted was some fried chicken livers - random, I know, but I've been craving them for a few weeks now. I used to get my fried livers from Popeyes but they no longer carry them. I was told about the American Ranch House - whew!!! Those were some of the best friend chicken livers I've had since I left Mississippi. So crispy but not dried out. Full of flavor. I will 100 percent be coming back! A+++++“
“"Tripp's Bar is an absolute gem! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ From the moment I stepped through the door, I knew I was in for a fantastic time. The vibe is electric, the music is pumping, and the atmosphere is just what you need to let loose and have a blast.Now, let's talk about the real star of the show - their fried pickles! ?? Holy moly, these are some of the best I've ever had. Crispy, flavorful, and downright addictive, they're the perfect companion to a cold drink and good company.But that's not all - the drinks menu is a masterpiece in itself. Whether you're into classic cocktails or bold new creations, Tripp's has something for everyone. And the bartenders? They're total pros, mixing up drinks with style and flair that'll leave you speechless.So if you're looking for a night out that's filled with fun, flavor, and unforgettable memories, look no further than Tripp's Bar. Trust me, you won't be disappointed!" ??“
“10/10 from the food to the customer service! You can tell everything was made fresh & our server Jade was awesome!! She was so nice, it was my first time coming here and she really made my experience a good one! I will definitely be returning soon! (:“
“Probably the best chicken and okra I have ever had. Chicken fried to perfection not greasy nor salty. Perfectly seasoned and fries! The okra taste like sour cream and onion seasoning...absolutely amazing! This is a must try if you are in Bham! I come here all the time when I'm home!!!!“
“we were passing through on a family trip & stopped at metro diner to eat- our server (Shannon) was phenomenal. there was also a man who played with my 3 boys & did a magic trick for us. felt like we had been going there for years. not only great service, the food was also fast & delicious“
“It’s great to have the original menu back, but certain items are different than I recall. While the potato salad and chicken salad lived up to our hopes, my old favorite, the chicken and slaw pita, was a disappointment. In the old days the slaw wasn’t marinated and you’d add oil and vinegar at your table, but with marinated slaw the pita fell apart immediately. Worse, the chicken was less flavorful than I remembered.That’s ok - hopefully they can work out the kinks and return to the original menu’s former glory.“
“We’ve been here twice in the last three months. First, we went for their Studio 22 NYE event which was a blast! The unlimited drinks, heavy hors d’oeuvres, and perfectly selected live entertainment made for a wonderful evening. Second, we went to see Chappell Roan who had local drag queens open for her. Both times were a blast and parking in the area was plentiful. Would definitely recommend this venue!“
“Oh my goodness. We didn’t know what to expect from the pictures as the biscuits are dark But it’s the flour used. Everything is baked on site. The combination of ingredients were amazing. We ordered everything that didn’t have meat and were excitedly surprised. They were all simply delicious. We discovered they roast their own coffee and make their own syrup. So, of course, we tried the blueberry spice coffee. It had cinnamon, cardamom and other spices as well as their blueberry syrup. It was amazing. We will definitely be back“
“My husband and I had our wedding reception at The Club and everything was amazing! The food was tasty, drinks were great and everything was the way we dreamed! They even had my husband’s favorite, a fried pickle bar and it was a hit with all our guest! ❤️“
“My son took the family to Beef O’Brady’s. It was my first time here. When we got there, the place was not crowded, just the right amount of people to give it a decent atmosphere. The food and service were great! I will definitely return!“
“I was in Birmingham this week and was walking around looking for some sort of local place to eat at and came across this place, Crafts. I checked the reviews and to be honest they were mixed. I was feeling like some fried chicken and since I was in the south I thought I'll try to this place. This place is sort of off the beaten path along with some other restaurants. The store front looked nice. I was suprised by how big the inside was. I walked in and this place was huge. Maybe 30 tables? There were a lot and unfortunately it was pretty empty but the place was clean! Maybe I came in an off time. The menu had all sort of stuff on it from salads to sandwiches to fried chicken and chicken tenders and so on. It was a good selection. The person taking the order was extremely nice and patient. I couldn't decide if I wanted the traditional fried chicken or the tenders. I picked the tenders with fries and a sweet tea. They gave me a number and I sat down. It took probably 10 min to get my food which meant they were actually cooking it fresh. My food came and it was a lot of food. I ordered the 6 piece tender and I should have got the 4 piece. These were thick hand breaded tenders. The coating was crispy, and it was very well seasoned. These were not bland at all. The fries now were awesome and something I never had before. These were almost like potato wedges but were spiral. They were thick, with a lot of surface area on them so they got very crispy on the outside but really tender on the inside. It was amazing. To top it all off as well the person taking my order gave me 10% off because it was my 1st time there. Which was nice. Overall this place is a go again. The food was good, the wait staff was amazing and nice, and the restaurant itself was clean.“
“I've been driving past this place for months and thought I needed to try it. Today was the day, Chili Cheese dogs for me and Slaw dogs for a co-worker. Fries and Tots too, both of out meals were good, friendly people behind the counter too. Looks like they have a good variety of other standards for this type of small restaurant. I/we'll be back soon. Thanks Guys.“
“Had dinner with family and loved the experience so much. I started with a cocktail that was delicious, followed by an appetizer of oysters. The oysters were so tasty and so far Donald, our waiter, was very attentive and knowledgeable. I decided to try the noodle bowl and was not disappointed. The seafood in the bowl was seasoned and prepared perfectly. The broth was so yummy it could have stood on its own. I love the seating choices, (chef's counter, bar, table) the decor, the location, and the service. I love this place!“
“Have been eating here for the past 7 years and have always enjoyed everything, wide range of food. Breakfast is really great, my personal favorite is the cheese omelette with hash browns and bacon. Can not beat the hamburger and that’s what I just ordered for today. Also love the fresh sandwiches especially the roast beef and cheese, ( Boar’s Head Meats ) A lot of co-workers like the Hot Wings also great selection of salads.“
“It was okay food, good service and amazing workersParking: Parking is all around the building and there are more than enough alwaysKid-friendliness: Workers there are super mindful and absolutely AMAZING with handling kids and making tells relationships with customers“

The Chocolate Chip Cookie Receipe is in a guarded local bank valult!! It took me Days to devour them Cookies jus one nibble at a time!!!“
“This place was amazing! One of the best burgers i have ever had!! The owner/chef and Angel were so so so nice. I can’t thank them enough. We were driving through from STL to FL and stopped in for a quick lunch with some family. I am so glad we did. We have a 1 year old and 3 year old. The 3 year old didn’t like the sauce on the burger (moms fault) so they got us a new bun and then we asked for some hot water to make a bottle and the owner went above and beyond and boiled water for us so it would stay hot for the rest of our car ride! Thank you so much for the amazing food and kind service.“
“This was my first job ever, worked there for 4 years, and I currently don’t work there anymore ( so I have no reason to sugarcoat this review). And with that in mind I have nothing but positivity to shed on this restaurant! The food is amazing, the employees (host to kitchen staff), are always friendly and helpful, the managers Stephen, Matt, and Brett all aim to please the community. With that in mind, I still stop by to have a good time and it’s always improving.“
“Wow. Wow. Wow. Blown away. I’m a huge fan of “fine, French cuisine” and this was certainly worth the 90 min drive to get to. Beautiful and simple, yet service and food are well planned and very intentional. Will absolutely be back, this place DID NOT MISS! Would give 6* if I could.“
