Restaurants near Mount Olive

“Cannot recommend this place enough! The cakes were EXACTLY what I wanted & were so good! I had multiple people asking where they were from. We definitely will be using cakes by Elise again next year!”

“Update 1/26/24 - Stopped by today and had the fried fish! Perfect! Two (2) extra large lightly battered catfish that was flakey and tasty. Had a side of fried okra and greens. This is my go to place whenever I have to go to BHAM!Original review - The right words to describe this place fail me... All that I can say is AWESOMEATOR! A true gem that you would never expect to find in a gas station, and an Exon at that. Fresh, hot, tasty, Southern Cooking with a side of sass from the employees! I love it! The only down fall is that there is no dine in option and you either have to take it to go or eat in your vehicle! I had two of the best pork chops lightly battered, with no grease residue, some fresh green beans with a mysterious twang, creamed corn, and collards, a roll and drink for under $11.00? Where does this happen? NOWHERE! This place is truly awesome. Liquor store on one end, deli on the other and a convenience store in the middle. Need fire wood? No problem they sell that as well. The toilets are outside around the side of the building. Unbelievable. I was tipped off about this place by a young woman that lives in Mount Olive and works at the Off Road Connection Performance store on 31 South. Thank you! Do not miss this one.”

“First of all let say that this is the best corn ever and I have traveled many places.. The welcoming atmosphere and the service was amazing, but the first bite into that corn was crazy I left no kernel behind ?? absolutely delicious and my family and I will be coming back. I 100% ”

“My first time eating here today with family� I will go again. My yams were left off my plate, next time I will check before I leave. Very generous with the servings.”

“The “vegan” tacos were absolutely incredible! Generously filled, excellent flavor and double tortillas. The mozzarella doesn’t seem vegan, though, so you may want to leave it off if you’re fully vegan. There are no tables or chairs. A place to sit would have been nice. But, the food was absolutely worth it and reasonably priced!!Vegetarian options: Awesome vegetarian tacos! They are labeled vegan, but the mozzarella did not seem vegan.”

“I swung in and picked up takeout for the first time. There was a small issue with my order so I called the restaurant to make the staff aware but was not expecting anything in return! The phone was passed to the owner Chris and I could not have been more impressed! He was so eager to make things right even though I tried to decline. I got a call back from him saying that he had given me a partial refund to my card. One of the orders we had was the ribeye and it was cooked perfectly with outstanding flavor! This was overall a great experience and my family can’t wait to go back!”

“Here solo with 2 dogs from IL. Google reviews said dog friendly. SO GLAD and much appreciated you are a TRUE dog friendly location. (Dogs allowed inside/outside including water bowls and public restrooms that a solo person can bring their pet with them). Im not much of a beer drinker and they did have options of cocktails. The cute guy at the counter was polite and made suggestions. I decided to try the Strawberry Blonde. I saw several other people with their dogs. I was able to have a couple beers, eat a burger (from food truck outside), chill indoors with my dogs and use the restroom. A huge outdoor and indoor sitting area with a variety of seating types. I would give this location 10 stars if I could.”

“We love Taxiki’s in Gardendale. They are always super friendly and the food is delicious. This was our first night having it delivered and it was still amazing.”

“A simple burger joint with a simple menu. Was told by many to be the best burger in town, and yes, it is indeed after I tried their cheeseburger. Will be back to try out the rest of the menu. ? ? ? ? ?”

“First of all, this is a really cool place. I really love the vibe. Lots of cool merch, and then really good food too. The food was great, everyone was working hard to get you your food, and the atmosphere is really good too. Friendly. It is loud, but not in a bad way. The area is actually really nice and there's a nice parking lot right across from the restaurant. Downside: they are kinda slow. This looks like it should be fast food, but it's not. I came right after they opened, and there was maybe 5-6 people in front of me, and it took a good 20 minutes for them to take my order. About 10 to get the order. I don't know if that was bc they just opened up maybe? Wasn't a big deal. Other thing is: this isn't cheap. Most of the burgers and sandwiches are $15 or more. (There's a couple of items that are cheaper, but they aren't what I went for - I went for their burger). Comes with fries, but does not come with a drink. Drinks are all $4.99 and up. So, for a burger, fries, and some sort of fancy lemonade, it was right at $26. Pretty high. I really liked it though. I'll probably go again, and just get the sandwich and fries - because you can't find vegan stuff almost anywhere in Bham, and this is good stuff as long as you're not broke or in a big hurry.”

“I had the grilled chicken Caesar spinach wrap and I must say it was the best I’ve ever had! I called my order in and unlike most places it was ready when I got there and fresh. I’ll most definitely will be back”

“Lovely family-owned and operated coffee and smoothie bar. Definitely take a few and stop in to see Tony and Cassandra for the best cup of joe around or fruit-full blended smoothie! Their Ethiopian blend was so delicious, I couldn't leave without taking a couple other options from the smoothie menu. And no surprise- they were all delectable! Named after the beautiful daughters of Tony D, 7 Angels is a hometown shop worthy of the name, as their spirits shine brightly and happily there. Will definitely be visiting again, and I highly suggest you do the same.”

“Most amazing pizza at majestic pies in Morris Alabama. Any kind of pizza anything to drink wonderful amazing service reasonable price for three people it was 30 bucks so you can't beat that good music playing in the break background do you have big screen TVs showing the sports and anything that you wanna watch I'm sure they will put it down and let you watch it. Everyone go see him majestic pies in Morris Alabama.”

“Great place to stop at near airport. They serve breakfast all day and the coffee is on point. Looks like some revitalization is going on in the neighborhood so excited to see it progress. My new stop on my travels. Oh the avocado toast was dang good, they even threw some EVO on there for me…just the right breakfast for a day of driving! Had the hot Caramel Crème Brûlée Latte, very tasty!”

“You can’t go to Alabama and skip this gem of a coffee shop. The best americano I had on my trip plus the joint is owned by a brother and sister who give you that family welcome. Thanks for a great experience!”

“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.”

“I delivered plants here from Georgia last year and once I knew I was coming back to this farmers market I knew where I was going to sit and enjoy an excellent Torta. SO GOOD. Looking forward to next time I’m delivering here.”

“Moved to the area and of course had to try the wing place based on reviews! Omg, it didn’t disappoint!! . We had the garlic Parmesan wings and they were A-mazzzzzing! Going back tonight as I type this review ?”

“I have been a customer of Kens since it was across hwy 79 and up the road a few blocks. Same good people and same great food. Never does a holiday go by without some of their coleslaw and baked beans.”

“Wish I had stopped by sooner than I did. They've got a nice breezy spot right on the highway, a place to sit down outside, and some big fans to keep you cool. Like concession stand food? Nachos, candy, shaved ice, etc? This is the place for you. They're also SUPER friendly.”

“All around experience was phenomenal! The name of the club was perfect, theme song for the night was "Issa Vibe". Reserved one of the birthday sections, which was beautiful. The whole club is nicely decorated, even the outdoor stage and seating area continued the nice laid back ambiance. The staff was friendly and accomadating, security was attentive and welcoming, Bando the DJ kept the vibe going reading the room well. Last but not least when the food truck opened up, we started dancing all over again when he brought the plates to wings and fries were on point.The review is a little long, but I wanted to express how much fun I had at such an awesome venue, we will definitely be back. The people, the venue, the entire staff are all a whole vibe!! Thank you, thank you and thank you, my birthday celebration was amazing!”

“Grandma's kitchen! I was craving a home cooked meal and the local gas station sent me here. I love it. Buffet style, choose your meat, and priced per veggie. Friendly and ”

“Best Bar-B-Q EVVAA!! ❣️ I LOVE IT! Very friendly people. It's just a little walk up or drive thru but has been in that spot for some years!Parking: Pork plate chopped, no slaw, with extra fries instead and baked beans is my favorite and they put a bun in the plate. Also a large sweet teaKid-friendliness: Walk up or drive thru onlyWheelchair accessibility: Not positive but pretty sure”

“Coffee and a play ground for the kids! Everyone is so friendly and the kids love the playground. The welcoming atmosphere and friendly staff make it a favorite spot plus, the coffee is top-notch!”

“The service received was very good and the margaritas were on point! I highly recommend the Guacamole Casera as an appetizer. I had the Chicken Fajitas and my date tried the Fiesta Bowl, it was fantastic! The brightly decorated dining room and bar area just add to the ambiance. My only reason for not giving a five star review is due to it taking almost 30 minutes to receive our food after ordering. They were very busy and the server kept us stocked on drinks and chips and dip. Maybe after my next meal I can update to five stars!”

“This is among my favorite places to visit when I come home. Great food, great staff and always something to look forward to and not be disappointed!!! Thanks guys!!”

“Everything is fantastic here. It's always a wonderful experience. The food is excellent. I have tried several of their dishes. Nothing disappoints. The staff is all very welcoming, friendly, and courteous. The restaurant is very clean. The drinks are a must try.”

“I got the baked spaghetti,AC and cheese and sweet potatos. When you think of the way you want macaroni made in your mind, that's exactly how it is there. Perfect! I will be back.”

“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.”

“My slushy was amazing,the love and care that was put into making it was far and beyond. This was truly a work of art and I really enjoyed.The employees are so kind and patient, 100% the best.I forgot to ask her name but if you see this YOU ROCK.Parking: Plenty of parking and it's freeKid-friendliness: There are always plenty of children there, and yes they are kid friendly.”
