“Green Acres is practically an institution at this point and for good reason. The food is amazing, the service is friendly (its not always quick, but the lines are crazy for a reason), and did i mention the food is amazing?
If you're ever in the birmingham metro, Green Acres is as necessary a stop as the Statue of Liberty or the Golden Gate Bridge. If you think I'm exaggerating, you just haven't had the food yet.”

“We had an incredible experience! Bailey gave us fantastic recommendations, and every dish she suggested was absolutely delicious. The Iberico Presa is definitely going to be one of my go-to choices from now on. Richard, our server, was outstanding and made the evening even better. We can’t wait to come back!”

“Everything was delicious!! Steak Tartare, Chicken Liver Mousse and Escargot as appetizers, Trout Amondine and Basque Cake make this one of the best dining experiences I have ever enjoyed in Bham. Service was the best!!! Even met Frank Stitt!!! Can’t wait to go back soon!!!”

“What a gem of a find! The cuisine was exceptional and the presentation perfect . Thank you for a wonderful dining experience La Fête! We will return.”

“Went here for the first time tonight for my anniversary dinner. 100% will be back! Walked in and was immediately treated like family. The food was exceptional, the staff was exceptional. Everything about this place was fantastic. It’s a must visit place in Birmingham!”

“This was our first time and it was absolutely excellent from start to finish! The manager, Brandon, was SO genuinely welcoming and accommodating. Our server, Parker, was flawless and so much fun (request him!). Every dish was perfectly cooked, refined and full of flavor (smoked salmon, fried green tomatoes, fried oysters, rainbow trout, swordfish with andouille, ribeye with truffle fondue). The cocktails and wine all perfect. Will definitely return and want to thank Blueprint for a truly wonderful experience!”

“The berry Danish is absolutely fantastic! I'm pretty sure the rice krispy has peanut butter in it. If so, allergic people be aware. The service was very quick, and the person that cashed me out (has an industrial piercing) was very friendly and actually paid attentive rather than having the usual blank customer service face.”

“We are visiting Birmingham this weekend for the Lake Street Dive show tomorrow. Restaurant Week led us to OvenBird. Last night we ordered the Tomato Salad, Hanger Steak and Roasted Chicken. Among the best, most delicious meal we’ve ever had. The Tomato Salad is over the top delectable. Chris, our server, welcomed us to the restaurant and to Birmingham with informative, gracious service. Highly recommended!”

“Exceptional in every way. The food is always over the top. They go above and beyond to make this the best dining experience. It's our favorite Birmingham restaurant.”

“Wonderful food and awesome service!”

“We came for our 37th wedding anniversary. It was our 1st time eating here. Our server was Bishop. Bishop was amazing....staring woth the glass of celebratory champaign, picking a perfect wine pairing, explaining the dishes, great sense of humor....he helped make our experience fun and memorable. The food....OH. MY. GOODNESS!!! The food was amazing. Cooked to perfection! From the bread, Amuse Bouche, appetizer (great fried green tomatoes, by the way!!!) Intermezzo, main course (ribeye and braised rabbit), and dessert with coffee....every step was amazing! A truly wonderful sensual experience from all the aromas, flavors, and ambiance. We will definitely be back, and will definitely recommend Cafe DuPont to others. Thank you for making our celebration special!”

“Had been wanting to get here since they opened and it just hadn’t worked out. Well, my wife and I remedied that and what a great experience!! We love Automatic and just knew this would be a hit. Did not disappoint in the least, from the moment you walk in, atmosphere is welcoming and on point, friendliness of the staff was top notch!

We had a drink in the bar while we waited for our reservation, they could have seated us but we wanted to experience a drink at the bar, bartenders were super professional and made excellent drinks!

The food, what can I say, everything we tried we amazing. We will be back soon as there are so many others items that looked amazing and the menu does change with the seasons. I had the short rib, Bulgogi tacos, they were so dang good!! Wife had the curry noodles, I would say the best I’ve ever had!

All in all, I highly recommend this restaurant!!!”

“This past weekend, we went to Pizza Grace because the original owners sold it to the owners of Big Spoon Creamery. So, out of fear and curiosity, we wanted to see if our favorite pizza place was still our favorite pizza place. Let’s just start. The garlic bread they switched the focaccia with pizza dough, spread fairly thin so it was light and crispy and they swapped the garlic oil for garlic butter with herbs. This was actually really good! We both enjoyed it and thought the flavor of the butter was way better than the original garlic olive oil spread. However, I think they should have kept the focaccia bread and just swapped the olive oil with the garlic and herb butter. That would have been an easy 10/10. But unfortunately, even though it was still very good, it gets an 8.5/10. The pizza itself was still basically the same. We got the pepperoni pizza. Upon arrival and tasting, we could tell they cut back on the red pepper flakes, which we were both happy about. Our main issue was the fact that we could tell, visually, the pizza was smaller and not as big as it used to be. We didn’t like that we were paying basically the same price for less pizza. I’d recommend either making the pizzas bigger again or lowering the price. This also would have been a 10/10, but we’re taking off points for the pizza being visibly smaller and giving it a 9.5/10. For dessert, I got the Big Spoon Bar, which has fior di latte, salted caramel, TCHO chocolate, sea salt, and hazelnut in it. No notes here easy 10/10. I literally could not complain. First bite was heaven! All in all, this was very good with only a few minor disappointments. Is this still my favorite pizza place? Yes. Will I return? Yes, I will but I also think it depends on whether they adjust the price or return the pizza to its original size. That’s literally just how we feel since we’ve been going there for years. I highly recommend you guys go check this place out. Tell them I sent you! #PizzaGrace #foodie #foodreview #bhamfoodie #pizzalovers #pizza”

“FANTASTIC restaurant! Drinks are on point, food is amazing, and the staff makes this one of our fav restaurants and definitely a repeat! 10/10 recommend!”

“Glad I finally tried this restaurant. So good!”

“Delicious food & friendly people! Definitely will be a repeat customer!”

“Caroline really makes this Hattie B’s a wonderful experience right from the very start! She is kind and is so helpful explaining the menu! First impression 11/10! I ordered the sandwich with a side of bacon grits and both were fantastic! I would highly recommend coming here if you visit Nashville. On the flip side, if you ever happen to find yourself in Maine, come visit me at Morning Moose Coffee! You won’t be disappointed!”

“This place is a hidden gem in Pleasant Grove. 15-20 minutes from Birmingham and with the drive. The owner is so friendly and welcoming. The food is very fresh and delicious, you can tell there's a lot of love put into it. There are American choices for the less adventurous eaters and children's menu, also vegetarian options! My personal favorites are the falafel plate, Greek salad, tahini sauce, hummus and baklava. All homemade! Go try it, you won't be disappointed!”

“Tried this restaurant for the first time yesterday! 10/10 recommend! So good! I ordered the chicken shawarma bowl and my husband ordered a beef shawarma wrap- both were great!”

“Came in from out of town and this was such a sweet little shop to visit. We got the snickerdoodle, carrot, red velvet and strawberries and cream bundtlette! SO GOOD!”

“A former college teammate of mine took my son and I to this fabulous steak and seafood place. The food was great and the historical atmosphere added to the fantastic food. Plan to bring my wife here on my next trip down south. I know she will love it!”

“We're not huge fans of Greek food, but we tried Tasty Town, mainly for convenience. We had planned a very packed day of sight-seeing in Birmingham on a Saturday. It seemed that hardly any eatery would be open and there wasn't time allowance to drive out of the downtown area, without being late for the next activity. Thus, we settled on a mid-afternoon lunch/dinner at Tasty Town. Honestly, both of us thought it was better than we had anticipated and the service and location were top notch. Thanks, Tasty Town! Thanks for being there, and thanks for being so good.”

“Wonderful coffee and food! Friendly staff. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit.”

“Their food is amazing So are their employees Larry helped me so much !! Tonight was my first time”

“The absolute sweetest customer service, best atmosphere, and delicious food! 10/10 recommend! 💚”

“Dude…

This is easily in the top 5 coffee shops I’ve ever visited. Tim is a barista’s barista, pleasant to talk to, knows his craft and ready to share his excitement about coffee. The espresso was delicious, smooth, fragrant, sweet, not overly acidic or bitter. The other drinks celebrate the coffee without distracting from it, something I don’t see nearly as often as I’d like.

The shop itself is a welcoming space, lots of natural light, comfortable environment. Great vibe all the way around.

Prices are absolutely fair considering the quality of service and product I received. I’m absolutely coming back ASAP.”

“Great customer service and the food was amazing”

“Randy did a great job serving at the bar and the drinks she made were ???.”
