“Drove an hour to experience Salud Bham. Can honestly say one of the best restaurants and tacos I’ve had in all of Alabama. The mix of great atmosphere, great customer service, and great food all blends together so well. Attention to detail with the theme of the restaurant is amazing. Being Hispanic, a Mexican immigrant, this place hit home. Everything blended together well. Tacos are a bit pricey but are definitely worth it and very filling. Their in house Horchata and Jamaica aguas were very delicious. 100/10, Will be driving an hour back again multiple times.“

“This place is so so good! I go here almost every month and I am obsessed. The food is SO delicious and the service is even better. If you enjoy authentic Mexican food I definitely recommend!! The atmosphere is perfect for a peaceful lunch or dinner. The side grocery is also a nice addition. Wish I had a picture of the food I got!“

“The food bar was mostly gone and didn't really look appealing to me. They can't make subs or cook fresh seafood for you anymore which really is a bummer. I was going to eat it for lunch. The seafood does have cooked items but they have to be sold cold and that's not appetizing for a right then and there lunch. Other than that the food and products on the shelves look amazing!!!“

“I haven’t been over to see Jamié in many years. Still number one.“

“Stopped in on trip to Birmingham and were pleasantly surprised at our good luck. The food was nicely presented and delicious. We had combo plates with chicken and it was moist and tender. Chips and salsa was spicy and delicious. Quicamole Mexican was fresh, made with chunks of avocado, onions, tomato, and cilantro. We will be back.“

“Best tacos hands down. Tacos are always packed with lots of meat and served w/ grilled nopales (cactus) and cebollita taquera(green onion). They give you green and red salsa bottles to take to your table to enjoy throughout your meal. For drinks they offer Jarritos or agua frescas. Aside from tacos they also have quesadillas, pambazos, burritos, etc.“

“Phenomenal. By far a grand slam! Prices are beating the competition and the quality of the food is to. I eat Mexican everyday and working in Birmingham it’s been different ones everytime! This is saved in the maps and will always be first choice.“

“Food was fantastic!! We got sweets from the bakery. Delicious!!! Everyone there was really nice. First visit but it won't be our last!!“

“Ordered 4 chicken tacos & 4 steak tacos...I will say not enough sauce to even put on your tacos...very dry with the sauce provided. I got the green and red sauce (2 each provided) for 8 tacos; oh, and a steak burrito w/o beans. Was not very satisfying for the money spent. Please ask for a LOT of sauce if you get this order...I mean a lot.“

“My husband and I visited the restaurant today and Kendal was awesome. She was very sweet, friendly, and kind. Even got to see Maggie again. Maggie, brought my husband more water and wasn’t our server. Those two servers are what being waitress should be like.“
