“Finding seating is hard here….And that’s it. That’s the end of the slight detriments.This is some is the best BBQ in birmingham and that’s a pretty big deal.The sweet tea chicken sandwich is FANTASTIC, but I actually tried a burger this time. Don’t usually eat burgers, but I was feeling it. So thrilled I did. The Carolina I think it was? Chili on a burger…. And just enough to not overwhelm everything else.Sides? You can’t go wrong. But the potato salad is my go to.Good prices. Amazing good. Friendly service and atmosphere. Saw’s has it awwwl.Vegetarian options: Why would you go here if you’re a vegetarian?“

“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!“

“Love ❤️ Saw’s food—down home yet supremely decadent. The pork and greens plate is to die for. If you try one thing, this is it! My one problem is the STyROfOAM! Yuck! Do better. There’s biodegradable containers and good ol’ fashioned plates. I need to remind myself to not order beer on tap. Plastic cups? Really? Shameful amount of garbage per meal that’s where the four stars for atmosphere comes from. Friendly efficient staff. You need to try Saws for great food.“

“Do you like mouthwatering food with live music and an atmosphere so great it felt un-earthly? If so, The Palm and Pig is for you. The Smoked wings are simply to die for. Staff is kind, welcoming, and friendly. They go above and beyond to serve both on the floor and in the kitchen, and the results are evident. My only complaint is that I am unable to give this restaurant a Michelin star rating.Parking: Plenty of parking spots“

“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!“

“The food is absolutely amazing. The chicken tacos are phenomenal. I’ve visited the food truck twice and we’ve had them cater for the college championship and the Super Bowl. Everything is fresh and flavorful. 10/10 easily ! Keep up the good work !“

“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.“

“Bologna Sandwich 5/5 Service 10/5 Onion Rings 3/5 The true definition of southern hospitality. A restaurant run by a family that treats you like family. It was my first time and they took the time out to suggest items to me and ask me what I liked. I even had input from another diner who was apparently a regular, who told me to get the bologna sandwich. And BOY was it delicious. HUGE. Couldn't eat it all in one setting. I liked it because it was on white bread, the bologna was thick sliced and charred (which a good piece of bologna always has) and the toppings were fresh. The only reason I gave it four stars is really no fault of their own. It's just the onion rings were too greasy. I know, I literally ordered a fried side, but they were like drenched. Perhaps it was just my batch. When I'm in Fultondale, though, I'll definitely be stopping by. I want to come back for the hotdog which is supposed to be the standout.“

“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.“

“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.“

“Small menus are great when their items are really solid, and these are. Both the pork adobo and the chicken skewers are delicious and feature that distinctive Filipino tang. The grill on the "back porch" of the trailer is unique, and you know the kababs are always fresh off the grill.“

“Great food and a friendly staff. You know a BBQ place will be awesome when you walk into the room and the pit is right there and you can smell the smokiness being cooked right into the meat and you are are surrounded by little piggy decor everywhere you look.“

“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“

“Golden Rule, one of the oldest barbecue joints in the USA, opened its doors in Irondale in 1891. Growing up, this was always my family's favorite. My dad would pick up pork sandwiches or a pound of pork, and we would eat it with Golden Flake potato chips and drink Coca-Cola. My dad, now in his 80s, still loves Golden Rule. Whenever we get together with family, this is where he wants to go. This place still has a small town vibe with friendly waitresses that remember you and your family. It's a place where small and large groups are welcome, and friends like to hangout and talk. If you aren't a BBQ fan. They also serve chicken sandwiches, hamburgers, and cheeseburgers. I love BBQ, and my favorite is their pork plate sliced, not chopped with a side of mac and cheese and their vinegar cole slaw.“
