“Is it good BBQ?Let me put it this way.Anytime I'm in Bham, I intentionally book my hotel across the road from this place, so I can utterly over-eat myself every day, and then waddle my little fat happy and content behind back to my room to stare blissfully at the ceiling for the rest of the night.It's not good, it's outstanding.“
“Lexi waited on us and did outstanding! We both had the Wednesday special of a 6oz. Sirloin with 2 side for $12.99 and the Spin (Spinach) Dip. The spinach dip was great and the sides were great, but the steaks were a bit gamey (medium-well). Overall four out of five stars.“
“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“
“Working in Birmingham, AL for an extended period of time and Jim 'N' Nick's was right up the street from both my hotel and my work site so we stopped in for lunch one time. Listen, I enjoyed myself SO MUCH that I returned 2 more times for dinner! Here's why!Atmosphere/Appearance: This place is huge and has a fairly large footprint for being in a downtown setting. No private parking, but there's plenty of street parking. Once inside you're greeted by a wide-open dining room and a big center bar with seating on 3 sides. There are dining booths on both sides and plenty of standard tables. If you walk on the left side of the bar and head toward the back you'll see the to-go section where you can walk right up to the counter and order your food to roll out with.Service: I can't remember the name of our servers, but we sat at the bar each time and everyone was wonderful. As a collective they were funny, sweet, likeable and personable.Food: Like I mentioned, the first time we came, it was for lunch. Then they dropped those complimentary cheesy muffins in front of us, I was befuddled, beside myself and just bewildered. They were AMAZING. I could've eaten JUST THOSE for lunch and been so happy. However, for lunch I wanted something light and went with their Chopped Southern Salad which consists of smoked chicken, smoked onions, sweet corn, cheddar cheese, bacon, cucumber, tomatoes, almonds and homemade croutons then tossed in house-made vinaigrette. It was delightfully fresh, yet filling and savory. I loved it. However, I saw they had smoked wings so on my next visit I came in for those... I was able to try 2 flavors, their Buffalo and Morgan Co. White Sauce (also knows as Alabama BBQ sauce). They were DELIGHTFUL. This may have been the first time I was able to try an Alabama BBQ sauce and I really liked it's savory-ness. It's a mayonnaise-based sauce which gives it its white color and rounded flavor. The Buffalo was thick and hearty, better than a watery traditional Buffalo sauce. On my 3rd visit I tried out their Combo Plate. On it was their smoked turkey, fried catfish and beef brisket. On the side was a salad and a lil' cup of mac & cheese. The food was so delicious it really made me think this place was like a one-off. Much to my surprise there are Jim 'N' Nick's BBQ places ALL OVER THE SOUTH! Nice job guys.Value: It's a BBQ place and usually they aren't cheap. I feel like $30.00 is enough to come here and pig out with!In conclusion, I loved it here... That's why I hit this place up 3 times. Lol. I will certainly pay this place a return visit or check out another one if I'm in the area!“
“Amazing - far exceeded our expectations!!!Our hotel recommended this restaurant and gave details on what they liked about it. It sounded unique, so we gave it a try. OMG! It had a great atmosphere in a little neighborhood shopping center. The service was great, our server was friendly and took great care of us. They have Bushwackers! We also had two of the grits and green dishes - pulled pork and blackened catfish. Both were delicious! And, we had the butterscotch bread pudding. Everything was SO good! What a great experience.“
“Ok, my intentions were to take pictures of our beautiful meal, but me and my husband could not wait. We usually have good conversations at dinner. Not today we were so off into our wonderful meal. It Will leave you breathless. Everything taste GREAT!!! Even the dessert. We will definitely be back. (tomorrow, lololol ??) Hoover location.“

“Saw this place on the side of the road during a family road trip, decided BBQ would be nice for lunch. The smell was heavenly the moment we stepped out of our vehicle, and the taste was delightful! Smoked wings, BBQ ribs, and pork and coleslaw sandwich, all made to perfection! If you find yourself passing by this place and you're feeling hungry, stop in! You won't regret it! Om nom nom!“
“best BBQ! my father was having surgery at highlands and my daughter and I walked there for the lunch. the staff opened early for us as we were waiting outside in the heat. awesome food. great service. awesome decor. perfect music..played kate bush“
“It was a great experience. The staff was very friendly and professional and made sure to check on us through out the entirety of our visit. Food was brought out quickly and everyone’s order was right. I got the wing plate which came with 2 sides and a choose of bread. The food was made fresh to order and tasted really good. The wings were smoked and cooked properly and my 2 sides were onion rings (amazing) and fried okra. The fried okra was whole fried okra.“
“The name does not Lie. I am driving through Alabama and the word serendipitous is what comes to mind when finding This gem of an establishment. By far the best wings and fries I have had in a very very very long time. Stop here if you are a wing enthusiast!“
“I've been eating at this place for several years but I used to go with my friend Len. He introduced me to it even though he doesn't eat BBQ! He always would get French fries and a grilled cheese. Well the ribs are really good and the fries are outstanding. Sadly, my friend Len has passed away. I will always think of him when I eat at Carlile's.“

“Southern Hospitality in America is real... we took a drive-by to Rodney Scott’s BBQ, here in Homewood, Alabama, to try our luck at 8.30am (service 11am). Looking like a couple of weirdos peering through the windows, the manager, Aaron Shoop, came out to see what we wanted. Explaining that we were from New Zealand and fans of Rodney and BBQ, we were invited in, given the full kitchen tour and then we were offered some menu items for take away (all paid for of course). Great chat with Aaron and Joel Brown about New Zealand BBQ and our trip through the states so far, and a few takeaway tips for hogg cooking and BBQ back home.Setting up a make shift picnic out the back of the SUV in the carpark - we feasted. There's only been 1 other occasion on this trip where my perspective of good BBQ flavor and texture has shifted... this was the second. Pulled whole hogg and ribs. The sauces - WOW!. Oh my! The flavor, the char, and the textures offered were excellent. So good! Mouth watering! Sides of Potato Salad and Slaw were a great addition.With full bellies, we're driving away to our next destination, I feel a sense of satisfaction that only good food can offer. I'll remember this for the rest of my life!Cameron Staples - Auckland, New Zealand -@jointsmokersbbqGlenn Manning - Christchurch, New Zealand - @thesmokinque“
“Chicken salad chick has been nothing but great. Jesus and all the other servers have been nothing but friendly and sweet. Layla was great at Making sure my food was correct and delicious. Thank you for the great service and being nothing but kind. I will definitely be coming back to chicken salad chick.“
“The food was pretty good I got a grilled chicken sandwhich and onion rings. My only complaint is the price compared to the amount you get for an upcharge on onion rings you should get a little more then you do. Otherwise wonderful food, very friendly people, nice small lil joint to stop into.“
