I didn’t want to say anything in the restaurant and embarrass my party. It was horrible. The fish and fries came out cold. You were out of oysters which is why we drove to come here. We were never asked if the food came out ok. That’s because I’m positive she knew the answer. We left a decent tip. We come to Montgomery a lot. We will in all honesty not come back. Nothing was hot. Appetizers and other food was just warm. Just a shame to spend $100 for 3 people and get not even mediocre food.

I've visited this place three times, and it's one of my favorite places to eat. However, as a bartender myself I always prefer to sit at the bar. The first time I visited, it was a Friday and (per our receipt) our bartender was Tiffany F. She did not give good service at all. We constantly had to keep repeating our orders, and she seemed more interested in her coworkers than her guests. The second time we went, we went with our kids and we had a tall guy (not sure of his name, but I know he used to be a server at Red Robin). Our food came out wrong however his service was exceptional! Very nice, especially with me and my husband being with our kids. The third visit we had was on 12/27 and we sat at the bar which prompted me to write this review. Unfortunately, we had Tiffany F again and the service was absolutely horrible. We sat at the bar and waiting for her to stop going back and forth with her coworkers for 20 minutes. It was so bad, an older gentleman who was a host (I believe his name was Larry because his shirt was monogrammed) made a comment to them that he believe they should take the conversation in the back. After 20 minutes of not acknowledging us, she didn't apologize, instead she approached us seeming irritated that we interrupted her. She asked what we wanted, and we told her we didn't even have menus to see. She never did smile once, only smiling at other coworkers again and conversing with them. She asked our drink order, then walked away and talked with coworkers, only to come back and then ask us what we wanted again. Another patron entered later on, only for her to ignore her and do the same thing! This is so infuriating, especially considering my husband and I are big tippers and brought $100 just to tip her! If it was a one time thing I wouldn't write this review but it seems to be repetitive with her. Again, she's more friendly with her coworkers who don't pay her a cent, yet will totally disregard patrons that are wanting to spend money with her/the establishment. I'm hoping this review doesn't get washed away and they actually address it with her. The food was great but our experience was ruined by the service. I tried to contact a manager before writing this review but I would love to speak to the general manager about this! If you do visit this place, please do not dine with Tiffany F or your experience will be ruined!!

Alabama specialties at an oyster house with fast friendly service, and large portions. Try oysters Bienville is you’re a Yankee and don’t know what it is. Anything with bacon is a treat. I had the scallops wrapped in bacon. Onion rings are not from a bag and collards have a nice kick. Shrimp and grits creamy and tasty. Plenty of street parking and a convivial atmosphere all around.

Very pleased with both the service and the food! I like my seafood flavorful and I wasn't disappointed. Our server made sure everything was up to standard and that we were happy with everything.

I had the bread pudding for dessert and it was great!

Can't wait to go there again!

Not sure if I gave a review but the food was great. I was there some months ago. Probably last November or December. Great indoor decoration as well.

My husband and grandson brought me to Wintzell's last night for my birthday. It was a disappointing. The ladies bathroom only had one toilet working (the other had an Out of Order sign on it). The soap dispenser in the left side of the sink was broken with parts on the sink.

When the sever can to orders,. l ordered the red fish on a bed of rice with grilled shrimp, Cole slaw and a side salad. When I received my food, there was an order of fries on the plate with the fish, rice and shrimp. I informed the waiter. He went to the back and brought me a serving of coleslaw leaving the French fries on my plate. The red fish was not a whole portion , it was broken into pieces less than half of a fish. I have order the dish at Wintzell's before but, this time I was very disappointing. My husband dish was very salty and cooked too hard. It was a disappointing night. We spent over a $120 and were very disappointed with the food and service.

My guest and I enjoyed their new
lunch specials that allowed us to enjoy a smaller order of oysters with a smaller lunch plate. This was more enjoyable than a dozen of oysters with a full plate.
