“Went here for brunch and everything I had was delicious. The smoked fish dip was one of the best foods I've ever had, and I loved the dill in there. The grilled oysters were really good and kind of tasted like if you made an oyster Italian. The brioche French toast was pretty good, and the shrimp and grits had a great cayenne butter. I got the spicy bloody Mary, and it had a good spiciness.“
“Most CRUNCHY and delicious fried sandwich I've ever had and! The places is nicely decorated and the quality of the food is great.Brunswick stew I'll have to try again because this time it was just ok.Would definitely recommend this place to any one of my friends and family.Parking: Park right in front of it with my 21" van“
“Service was absent. Waitress argued with my dad about an appetizer quality. So he refused to order any more food little did they know he was picking up the check. Food was okay. Not 5 star. Took us 4 hours to eat and get out. Waitress had 6 tables with 39 people in upscale restaurant. Been waiting years to go here. Service really was worse than Applebees“
“I gave 4 stars because the food wasn't to my liking, of course we ate all of it we paid for it and we do not throw away food, but it was fresh and hot. Our server Faith was a sweetheart?♀️ and very kind when I asked for more butter,she brung it right on out. The atmosphere gives off a vintage smooth free vibe,which was superb and we loved it. I do recommend this restaurant to others, it's just we are huge seasoning lovers and we love to try different places and styles of food so we gave this place a shot. This restaurant is excellent for dining so go check it out.“

“If I could give this place 6 stars, I would. I’m visiting from out of town, and my blackened mahi fish tacos were other-worldly. The hush puppies were a delightful side, with the fresh house made tartar sauce to dip. 100% loved this meal. The vibe here is relaxed, mom & pop kind of cozy. Go here today. I will be back!!“
“The food here is so amazing! The New Orleans-based decorations and music blasting make it feel familiar inside the building. The staff was extremely nice and patient, answering our questions and making small talk. They're extremely sustainable by using reusable silverware and dishes. However, the tables are close to each other, which adds to the homey/familiar vibe, but it doesn't help with preventing COVID-19. Though, they do offer take-out as a counter! The area is really small with limited parking but the experience there left a big impression.“
“Hot, fresh, delicious food - and plenty of it - for a reasonable price! I used to get curbside, but last week I was delighted to learn they've added tables so I can eat there. Many yrs ago the owner had Bryant's Family Seafood in a different location but it closes, so I'm very happy that the food is just as delicious as the first business! The hushpuppies are light, and very good - and their honey butter is the perfect complement! It's worth the drive to enjoy this delicious food!“
“Our server Chris was exceptional and Aaron behind the bar did not disappoint (but he was raised right). Everything was so tasty and you can tell the kitchen was not afraid to season the food well. Put this on your "must visit now" list immediately.“
“Stopped in for brunch. Second visit, but had first time friends joining. We made it there at 12 & were able to be immediately sat on the patio which was perfect with the weather. The food was OUTSTANDING. The lox is one of the best plates I’ve had. Don’t miss out on the bites & the Benedict. Winston was a great server. He made awesome suggestions, very personable & timed everything perfectly. Can’t wait to be back in“
“Excellent food and service. Apollo,, our server was very attentive and knowledgeable. We had the lunch catfish. Fried and grilled. The fried was not greasy as most fried seafood is. Very delicious. Greek Cole slaw was good. Highly recommend.“
“The best wings and quesadillas from a food truck I’ve ever had. The sides are crazy big and can all be loaded up with toppings. My wife loves the okra and hot lemon pepper catfish. The Jamaican Jerk wings were excellent fried extra crispy. Philly cheese sandwich and quesadilla were perfect.“
“They don’t call it soho “social” for nothing. It was very loud inside with all the “socializing” but with limited stops from the waiter/waitress, I feel if we sat outside this review would be better. Food was delicious though. But if you get the maple brussel sprouts be prepared for very crunchy and sweet flavor with very little brussel sprouts. I won’t order them again.“

“Update-Thank you Treasha for reaching and looking into this. 3/25/24.My coworkers and I order takeout which two of my coworkers were able to order online. For some reason my order wouldn’t go through online so we called it in. The food was good but my problem is the person who rung up the order decided to add themselves a tip which I wasn’t aware until it posted on my account. I was also charged a takeout fee which my coworkers weren’t charged. Never again will I order from this location.“
“Operated and ran by the owner herself! Real Ingredients! No shortcuts. BRE opens early for our monthly meeting. She makes Kingboyz Breakfast! I love this place and the owner. Good people!!!! I highly recommend you stop here!!Marcus KingKingboyz towing“
“NEW FAVORITE PLACE AND SERVER!! Food was amazing. Best queso and quesadilla in Birmingham. Jake's service was truly exceptional. From the moment we sat down, he exuded professionalism and warmth. He demonstrated an extensive knowledge of the menu, offering insightful recommendations that perfectly suited our preferences. Throughout the meal, Jake was attentive without being intrusive, ensuring our glasses were never empty and checking in at the right moments. His friendly demeanor, combined with his impeccable service, made our experience memorable. We left the restaurant with a deep appreciation for his dedication and exceptional hospitality. We will be back!!!“
“Ocean is one of my favorite restaurants by far. My husband and I visit here occasionally, the food is always great and the service is as well. Last night my husband surprised me with dinner here with my kids and family for my birthday. The food was great per usual as well as the drinks. However, our main server last night had the worst personality, her attitude was horrible. I can’t remember her name but I would definitely remember her face. My daughter asked about the birthday dessert and she was very snappy with her. For this server to get a 130.00 gratuity she definitely deserve it at all. Other than her nasty attitude and personality everything was great! Just wish we had a better server.“
“Finally had a chance to check out Yo Chef and was NOT disappointed! The food, drinks, and atmosphere were definitely a vibe. I had the Rasta Chicken Pasta and my out of town guests had the red snapper. Everyone at the table enjoyed the food and had great things to say about their meal. I will DEFINITELY be returning soon!“
“I took my daughter to lunch at Daniel George yesterday. It was delicious. I had the fried oysters with 2 vegetables and my daughter had the crab cakes with 2 vegetables. The service was excellent. This has become my favorite lunch spot because of the food selection, the good service, and the setting. We will definitely be going back soon.“
“Great food, friendly staff.Every experience here is a good one. The portions are large and the prices can't be beat!Parking: Parking is typically easy to find here. We've been here for lunch and dinner times and never had any problems.Kid-friendliness: Very kids friendly. The servers are great with the kiddos and the kids meals are portioned perfectly.“
“Love the food. Gluten free peeps - this is a good place for you! They don't have a gluten free "menu" per say, but you can order just about anything with corn tortillas instead of flour and the food has never made us sick, so they don't use gluten-containing spices in their meats, etc. at least not in a concentration to cause issues. Very fast for to-go orders. It's usually pretty loud inside, but feels like home. Drinks are reasonably priced as well.“
“Just had the endless steamed shrimp like always!!!! Oh my goodness the seasoning was on point, I asked for them to make the shrimp wet and they were anmazing each refill came out hot and on point!!! The wait staff was super attentive, Thanks MeMe and “

“Such a special gem in the city of Birmingham! The food was fantastic and reasonably priced. You could tell the food was cooked with love. This place was packed and the service was still awesome. Most importantly, people of all ages and from all walks of life were enjoying their meals here. To me, that's what good ole southern comfort food does.. bring people together!“
“The food is amazing everytime I come here. This last time I got it to go and had an hour and a half drive. By the time I got home, my food was still hot and delicious! Also, they have some of the best fried rice ive ever tasted.HIGHLY recommended!!“
“Great spot to get fresh seafood on demand. They sell raw seafood as well as fresh prepared seafood. I've been eating here for most of my life and they're always on point. Don't let the look of the building fool you, this place is the real deal when it comes to fish.“

“I love this place! Been going for years when in the area as their lemon pepper wings and lemonade are my go-to. Food is consistently fresh and I especially love the amount I get for the value. Avoid high hopes for superb service and you should enjoy thoroughly!“
“This place was amazing! I had the chicken enchiladas with grilled chicken and they were the best enchiladas I think I have ever had in my life!! The corn tortillas they used were amazing! The gravy was fantastic! I didn't just love the margarita but my wife had a lemon, cherry, strawberry drink that was really good! Staff was friendly. Atmosphere was very authentic. Nothing fancy but the food was incredible!“
“This is a great Mexican restaurant specializing in seafood dishes. The food was excellent and the atmosphere was great as well. At the time we were there a live band was playing and singing Mexican music. We enjoyed the experience immensely.“
“My recent visit to Good Friends Chinese & Seafood was a delightful journey into Chinese cuisine. The restaurant's inviting atmosphere set the stage for a satisfying meal. I ordered fried rice, egg rolls, and shrimp, and each dish was a delight. The fried rice was flavorful and perfectly cooked, the egg rolls were crispy and packed with savory fillings, and the shrimp was a succulent and flavorful treat. Good Friends Chinese & Seafood's dedication to authentic Chinese flavors and high-quality ingredients was evident in every dish. The friendly service and the welcoming ambiance added to the overall enjoyable experience. Whether you're a fan of fried rice, egg rolls, shrimp, or simply seeking a taste of China, Good Friends is a must-visit. I'm already looking forward to my next visit to savor more of their delicious offerings!“
“Would get 5 stars if they cooked the shrimp in the boil sauce like the rest of the meal instead of adding afterwards. Besides that the staff is super nice, the space is clean, and the food is hot and super tasty. Have been multiple times and will continue to visit.“
“My husband and I had the pick 3 fried seafood. We had catfish, oysters and shrimp. It was hot and fresh. Seasoned perfectly. Our waitress was Cookie and she was great!! There was another young man that greeted us (We didn’t get his name) but he was personable and made us feel welcome. We will be going back soon.“

“Tonight my husband and I went to Ruth Chris for the first time. We got married yesterday and decided to come here to celebrate. We had a 6:15 reservation and when we arrived we were seated promptly. Kayla was our server and time we were seated she instantly came to the table. I have to say that Kayla is a true gem. Her personality and attention to detail were top notch. I want management to know that you all are very fortunate to have a person like Kayla on your team. I observed her waiting 4 tables while giving each one her full attention. She gave us recommendations for drinks and they were spot on. In my opinion she deserves employee of the month or some token to show her that her efforts are not going unnoticed. Kayla if you read this, "Thank You for your kindness."“
“Great food. Service is horrible. Went to pick up an order for Doordash a few days ago. Waited I. The drive thru line for 10 minutes because they had the lobby locked, get to the order box and they told me theybga e the order away already. That's not how Doordash works, I told him that and he just kept repeating " we already gave it away" so if you order door dash from this place be warned: THEY WILL GIVE YOUR FOOD AWAY TO ANYONE WHO COMES AND SAYS THEYRE WITH DOORDASH WITH PI UT ANY PROOF APPARENTLY!!!!!“
