Great Food and Service. Beautiful Location and Grounds. Steakhouse feel with high end twist. Exotic menu items and not average recipes.

Definitely worth the drive from wherever you live! The concept is well thought out and executed, from the petting zoo to the dining areas, and is clean and organized. The service is friendly and accommodating, and with only some minor "oopsies", which were handled quickly and professionally with no loss of food quality in the corrections (impressive!), the food was raised, handled, processed and portioned expertly, and both the entrees and sides were well-prepared and very tasty! I will definitely be returning, and so will my friends! And next time we will remember to take photos!

The wait was long, but the food and environment were great and lots of cool stuff to pass the time while waiting to be seated

The food is so fresh and good! Best Shrimp and Grits I’ve ever eaten! Grilled salmon and steaks are awesome! Excellent burgers and sides. To top it all off, the decor is a must to see! Our very favorite place!

Steak was excellent. My wife had the shrimp and grits. She raved about them, best she ever had. Pricy but worth every dime. Owner and employees are great. Ambience is amazing and exceptionally clean.

Our family went to Bama Bucks. I have food allergies and they struggled to understand. You would think at the prices they charge they would know more. I am gluten free, and they told me that I could not eat the green beans because they had soy in them. Soy has nothing to do with Gluten. My steak and my boys hamburgers were very charred/ burnt on the outside. We like our steaks med-well, but not charred. Everyone that works at Bama Bucks needs to be more trained in food allergies. It was very cute and the animals were interesting, it was too cold to ride the camel. Many of the animals were put up for the winter. They did have a small shop with knick knacks and a few antiques. The prices were not that bad.

first time visit. very neat place to visit. food was not great for us. bison burger, pork tater slices. viewing the animals from the dining room was neat. the natural wood design was gorgeous plus the big Christmas tree and fireplace. something else on the menu may have been better ?

One of the best meals I’ve ever had. Steaks were cooked perfectly. Absolute best cheesecake ever. Great atmosphere. Owner was on site and made himself available to chat. Will definitely make another trip from Birmingham.

DONT COME HERE IF ITS YOUR FIRST TIME!!! I'll start with the good first - the food is AMAZING!!!!! Honestly 5 stars just for the food. The decor/theme is super fun and cool. The 2 stars are strictly for those 2 things. Now, my reason for not going if it's your first time - the manager and (especially) the hostess will make you feel d*** for asking any questions or asking for a table by their looks and attitude. If it's your first time good luck figuring anything out. Tried to find how to see the animals and couldn't figure it out, finally had to ask. You'd think they'd say "welcome here's how to see the animals etc" but nope. Waited an insane amount of time to see them, wasnt a lot look to look at but enjoyed it while waiting for the table. When we realized it had been way longer than she said it would take for a table and for them to call us, we went back up to find out. Had to wait for the manager to get off FaceTime with someone. Then she told us the host was supposed to call us and never did...Brianna, our waitress, brought kindness and a great personality to our visit! Other than her the only other nice people were the other guests. Smh.
