“Full Moon BBQ is always good, but this Alabaster location is the best of the best. Everything we ordered was fantastic: ribs, fried okra, pulled pork, macaroni & cheese, buffalo style tenders, and fries. It was all good. The tea was excellent, too.“
“I was talked into getting the baby back ribs and honestly... I'll never get them again, they were dry and chewy, I like my baby backs to be juicy and fall off the bone, I'll give em the benefit of doubt here and just figure they were under a warmer for a while since it the time I sat down they were bringing it out to me. Held the ribs in one hand by the bone and they just hung there. Staff was super friendly though and had a smile on their faces.“
“It was our last day in Birmingham and we wanted something good to eat after leaving church. After performing a brunch search on Yelp I stumbled across Biscuit Belly - Hoover and the food pictures alone had me excited to try it out. Finding the location was super simple as it sits in the plaza. As it sits in the plaza there is ample parking which makes it an even better option. Upon walking in, the space is very vibrant and visually appealing. The Biscuit Belly themed artwork is very eye-catching and adds a boutique design feel to the space. The establishment was very clean and they made great use of the space which allows for ample seating. Once you walk in, you grab a menu off the wall and head to the register to place your order. Once your order is placed, if you are choosing to dine-in, you take your number and head to your table. Super quick process with the customer in mind as it allows for the best use of time as it pertains to the overall flow of the order taking. The young man who took my order at the register was very nice. He welcomed me to Biscuit Belly - Hoover with a huge smile and as it was my first time ever, he was patient and offered me some insight into the menu options and helped me make my order selection. Super kudos as I didn’t feel rushed or as if I was being a bother. He allowed my excitement to be excitement as he aided me in my choices. After speaking with him I decided to get, The Boozy Bird - Buttermilk fried chicken breast served with bourbon maple syrup and Praline Mocha - Mocha with caramel, whipped cream and topped with pralines One Word… ASTONISHING!!! The Boozy Bird had the best Buttermilk Fried Breast known to man. The breast was moist on the inside and crunchy on the outside. The seasoning blend was perfect for the breast and paired well with the coating. Though the chicken was amazing, the Biscuit stole the show. Hear me when I say, the biscuit is a well crafted, southern delicacy that is warm in the middle with a slight crunch on the outside. With the breast in the center the biscuit absorbs the seasoning from the coating and forms a perfect marriage of goodness. Though the marriage is great, the biscuit has the ability to stand on its own and satisfy your soul. Now… even if you don’t like sweet chicken, the Bourbon Maple Syrup brings a level of appreciation to the sandwich. It’s not too sweet, but has just enough sweetness to put you in the mindset of an elegant honey butter blend. Oh my gosh… this biscuit was awesome. The Praline Mocha is like nothing I’ve ever had before. Allow me to paint you a picture. Imagine if Homemade Pralines were layered on top of a caramel ice cream, blended together with a sprinkle of love and care then poured into a cup with whipped cream added to the top. Yep! It’s just like that. Furthermore, the crumbles of Praline on top of the whipped cream add a texture layer to the drink that elevates its goodness as it adds an extra hint of almonds and caramelized sugar to the flavor of the sip that captures the pieces. This is something I need in my life that I didn’t know existed until today. As my family and I enjoyed everything that was on the table before us, the experience was taken to higher heights with the service that was provided. A gentleman was walking around checking on the tables. Come to find out his name is Andrew and he is one of the owners. What makes Andrew so incredible is not only was he walking around to ensure the cleanliness of the restaurant but he was cleaning and engaging with the guests as well. He was very welcoming and inviting. We discussed the items that we all ordered and expressed our appreciation for the chef and those involved with making the food AWESOME. After Andrew shared pleasantries with us he got back to work. To my added pleasure, Andrew came back around on his next walk through and introduced us to Rachel and I love herrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. LoL! Rachel is the other owner and was so down to earth and pleasant. She took time to allow us to express our gratitude for the care put into the food. Along with th“
“I had a birthday dinner there and the vibe was very inviting. This was me and my guests first time ever dining in this establishment. The customer service was excellent, the food was delicious, the drinks were top notch. If you're ever in Hoover, AL. You must check them out! Thank you for making my birthday a success! Kayla E. Thank you for your great customer service!“
“A first time visit but notttt my last.. This spot is a must for real seafood and gumbo lovers. The service was excellent the food was outstanding! Sarah- my server was top tier. She made sure I was pleased and the meal was hot and fresh! The Mahi- mahi is some of the best I’ve had in Alabama and the portions were enough for 2 days!“
“This is a MUST GO!!! My first visit at this restaurant and I have completely bought in! First, we were received with a pleasant greeting and immediately seated. Upon being seated our drink order was quickly taken and brought to our table. Our order was taken a few minutes after drinks were served...where does this happen these day?! The menu was filled with delicious southern cuisine. I ordered the vegetarian meal...it was great! This is such a great place for families and also good for a hangout spot. Good bar and tvs for watching sports. I was so pleased with the food, so I ordered our Christmas dinner with them. All the food was a hit! I will definitely go back.“
“I’ve had Boss Bogg several times already and I’m about to dig into some low country chicken bog for the 4th or 5th time. This is, hands down, my fiancé and I’s favorite food truck. We absolutely love it. If you like messy, flavorful, wholesome southern goodness GO HERE. No need to thank me :) it’s owned by the sweetest family, they are always so friendly and I cannot stress enough how good the food is. I’ve had the Mac n cheese burger, the chicken bog, shrimp n grits and meatloaf. It’s all amazing, and I don’t even like meat loaf!!“
“Superb food and great service. We had a dozen baked oysters sampler platter and the oysters were on the smaller side so the sweet waitress brought us one extra of each kind. I got the crab claws sauteed and they were absolutely fantastic! My husband and I love this place for date night!“
“Well, Jim N Nicks has been in Hoover a long time. It is good BBQ. However popular it may be, I have experienced some issues over time that have lessened my enthusiasm for eating there. The menu now changes annually and several items I have enjoyed have subsequently disappeared from the menu, such as catfish and grilled chicken. If you like their brisket, pork and potatoes you should be ok, but don't get too attached to other menu items. No guys, no one wants Pitmaster Nachos, this ain't Little Donkey. They have removed their grill and that has hurt menu options as well. Food portions have been hit by shrinkflation, but a visit will average 30-40 for a party of two. The staff are generally polite, but may be inattentive at times due to diner volume or tending bar/take outs. The music is extremely loud inside, moreso than most places, so people talk louder. This is the place if you want the music to drown out your in laws' conversation, but not if you are catching up with friends you actually like. As time goes on, my affection for Jim N Nicks changes like their menu. There is better BBQ around at better prices without the ongoing menu regenerations from the marketing department and the inside audio decibels making for an unpleasant dining experience. Stick to the drive thru and eat the cheese biscuits at home.“
“We found Sarris on our way thru town headed to a Sunday afternoon program we were doing. The reviews looked great and the meat and two was especially appetizing!The cafeteria style service line is quick and the servers are on the spot with your order. On this day they had a variety of meats ( snapper, grouper, crab cakes, bbq pork loin, and country fried steak). They had plenty of veggies to choose from and the desserts were out of this world!!Great find off the beaten path a bit, but worth the detour off the interstate to get a great lunch!“
“Loved the food and service here. Crab cakes were good. Baked sweet potato, shrimp and grits also delicious. Clean, soft music, nice waitress- we'll be back. ( Love those muffins. Bought dz fresh and also took home a tub of muffin dough.)“
“We stopped here because we couldn’t reach the other bbq place across the tracks and discovered an amazing hidden gem! This place has incredible bbq and service and the owner is kind hearted and charitable. This is our new favorite spot in calera!“
“What a joy this place is! Food is absolutely delicious, I love the Fancy Nancy with a side of potato soup or grape salad. The vibe is very cheerful and upbeat and the cookies are a wonderful sweet treat at the end of the meal. Will continue to come back.“
“Absolutely live this place. We and my husband gets the vegetable plate. The seasonings they use makes it the best I've had. There broccoli, cabbage, noodles, mac n cheese, zuchinnis and a roll is my dish. Mmm so good. 5 star def.Vegetarian options: So many vegetables. I am vegetarian and I love this placeParking: We parked at the main entrance past belk and the parking decon on the right, right before you get to Macy's it takes you in on top floor, zales will be on the right when you walk in.Kid-friendliness: It is in the food court and there are lots of children. They also have a carousel that my little boy loves to ride as long as there is someone there running it.Wheelchair accessibility: If u come in on the bottom floor it will be easier than going down the escalators.“
“My waitress was awesome. The food was tasty. I had a vegetable plate. However the food wasn’t hot, it was barely warm. Also, Cracker Barrel has cut back on vegetable portions so much. I got pinto beans, fried okra( could’ve been cooked longer), and fried apples(maybe four slices). The cornbread wasn’t cooked enough and it wasn’t hot enough to melt the butter. Otherwise it was fine.“
“Although I did take out on my visit to this Full Moon Bar-B-Que, I had a most awesome experience. From the time I walked up to place my order to leaving out the door after picking up my order was most pleasant. Tan was awesome ! My food was great. I ordered ×2 family meals 1 with a slab of ribs, 1 with a whole chicken and order of chopped pork each family meal came with ×2 sides, so I got the opportunity to try collard greens ?, Mac n cheese ? ?, baked beans ? and potato ? salad ? ? & the dozen little cornbread muffins ? were delicious ?!!! Those cookies ? dipped in chocolate ? were everything!!! Loved it and sooo did my family!! This restaurant gets a definite ????& ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“
“Cracker Barrel never fails to please and this was no exception! Our meals were amazing and the sweet tea was spot on! Can't wait to go back! And our server was exceptional! From Virginia originally and brought her service with her. The thing I love, no matter which cracker Barrel you go to? It's all uniform, all delicious and always good service. Oh yea, the wife likes the shopping also! Well done CB!“
“The BIGGEST Chicken Tendys anyone has to offer. When I say big, I mean these things are the size of other places, chicken breasts. The BEST fried chicken salad ever (fresh made ranch dressing mmmmmmm.) It sounds weird when you read it, and also when you say it to order, but trust me, the sausage, cheese, and pickel plate is 3 things you will soon find actually do go together. Your kids will love it once it's in front of them.“
