“Thank you, thank you to Chick Fil A Greystone. We ordered food from here for our end of year football party. due to weather (cold and rainy) we changed our party location last minute from Heardmont Playground to Chick Fil A. Isaac accommodated us quickly, reserving tables for us, and making everything easy and fun for parents and kids. Isaac and his team were welcoming from Start to finish A thousand thank yous, from the Red Team (Oak Mountain Youth Football)“

“Not a huge fan of Milos. That being said the employees were nice and polite, cutting up and having a good time at work. They brought that to the atmosphere of the restaurant, definitely a plus.

Having employees that enjoy their work and work together well while taking care of the customer is a huge deal nowadays.

As far as the food goes it was Milo's, if you like it you do if you don't you don't.“

“I love it because a very nice team and a very excellent service do a wonderful job and make me feel like family“

“Milo’s Hamburgers is a Birmingham staple that represents classic Alabama fast food at its best. It’s not flashy or complicated—just consistent, comforting, and unmistakably local. The burgers are thin, juicy, and drenched in Milo’s signature sweet-and-tangy sauce, a flavor that instantly sets it apart from national chains. It’s messy, nostalgic, and exactly what longtime fans expect.

The crinkle-cut fries are crispy and salty, making them the perfect side, and Milo’s sweet tea is almost as famous as the burgers themselves—strong, sweet, and refreshing. The menu stays simple, which keeps service fast and efficient, even during busy lunch hours. The casual, no-frills atmosphere makes it an easy stop whether you’re grabbing a quick bite or sitting down for a relaxed meal.“

“First time to try this place. I can't believe the wide array of food they serve. It comes to you hot, fresh and delicious!!! I had gotten a Groupon that I'm very thankful for!!! We spent less money here than we would at Taco Bell or McDonald's! If I lived over by it, I would literally eat here every day!!! I got fried catfish, the Cajun ranch fries and a small chicken salad. Good Lord I've NEVER had a salad THAT good before!!! And I'm 54 yo!! It has a ton of stuff in it!!! My husband got the same Cajun fried and a gyro that was amazing as well!!! I completely forgot to take pictures. But trust me, it's worth it! I can't believe they weren't more busy at 5 pm on a Saturday. We were the only ones dining in. But a few people came in for to go orders.“

“great service!! Thanx to Amy fulvi for a great burger!!“

“Puts my local Milo's to shame Hot food almost every time - very rare in fast food these days Much friendlier staff than most locations I've been to“

“I had a great experience at Chick-fil-A. The lady who took my order in the drive-thru was extremely helpful and very kind. Customer service like that really makes a difference. I always enjoy coming to Chick-fil-A, and this visit was no exception. Highly recommend this location!“

“Great experience at very busy time for them. They worked well together and served as many people as they could as fast as they could... And the food was hot and very good!“

“I like Five Guys’ foods and service very much. I was so disappointed in the service today, though, that I feel compelled to write this in hope that the manager at the Fultondale location will see it. I went in to place an order, but noticed one employee was cooking food and there was no one at the register. As I walked to the register, I passed two employees seated at one table and another employee seated at a separate table. I stood at the register waiting, but no employee approached. The cook, who was quite busy, saw me and called to someone, but still no one came. One employee at a table rose and walked to the back of the room, so I thought she had gone back to go behind the counter, but she came back to her table having just gone to refill her cup. We made eye contact, so she knew I was waiting. But neither she nor the other two employees made any attempt to assist me. After another six minutes, with no acknowledgment at all from the three seated employees,I left. I won’t give up on Five Guys after one bad experience, but I hope the manager will see this write-up and use it as a teaching moment for today’s staff.“

“I can’t stop thinking about that chicken. Went to Bham for work and walked there twice to get it. Now I’m Finna fly back to Alabama just to have it again!“

“Ate here for the first time today. It was very fresh and delicious! Restaurant was very clean also. We will be back to try the delicious custard.“

“Looking for an old school hamburger joint? This is it! Forget all the bells and whistles of a lot of other places. Joyland delivers on a great smash burger. I was able to taste every thing the burger offered. The pickles, onions, patties, cheese and amazing bacon. All of it without getting lost in an oversized bun.“

“Kenisha ((Eastwood location) was the most welcoming, helpful, friendly employee I have encountered anywhere in a long time! Her wonderful smile made us glad we chose to be served inside. As we left, she thanked us for coming in and reminded us to return soon, which we will do. We have been Milo’s customers since we moved to Birmingham in 1977.“

“Love Dairy Queen in trussville !!! Always the best customer service. The management and team is great, and they strive to help out the community as well !!! Recommend coming here 5 out of 5 stars !!�“

“I just absolutely love this place! The milkshakes are top notch and it's always clean and the food is delivered fast but very fresh.“

“Awesome people and food. just hate it's going to be 6 months for rebuild. I appreciate the friendships I have made there. Hopefully all will remain with company. Wesley is the best. I will take good care of the cow.“

“Got the cheeseburger meal with onion rings and french fries cheeseburger was pointed on probably just as good if not better than five guys. The onion rings were a little soggy. French fries were good and crisp for the money. It’s pretty good deal if you want that much food. also got an unsweetened iced tea and it would be nice if they actually made it a little bit stronger. The only thing that was a turn off was the people that beg for money and smell bad when your trying to eat“

“DELISH. The chicken is amazing… but the frosted lemonade?… 🤤“

“The food is good for what it is. It is a pretty good deal. The staff is usually pretty nice and in a good mood no problems always have my order correct the atmosphere is just an old building in an old place but yet it’s not known for that it’s known for the food that’s like your grandma cooked it in her kitchen“

“This is hands-down the best drive-through pick up pizza in town. Never greasy & friendly engaged staff. I have tried other stuffed crust pizzas and at least the one at this particular Pizza Hut is truly the best ever. Only downside as it doesn’t come in a smaller size!“

“Came through the drive-through and had a slight issue with my order (onions on the burger). I called and was told to come back down when I could. The manager and employees both were Accommodating and generous. They remade my entire order and we’re happy to do it and I really appreciated that today“

“I ordered through Uber Eats and the food was hot and fresh but I was disappointed when I got regular fries instead of Mex fries. The staff was so pleasant when I called to inform them of the error. One of the managers asked for my address & personally drove my Mex fries to me. That was most definitely above & beyond customer service.“

“Great food and clean restaurant!“

“The staff was delightful! We were so excited to come in and ate. Great experience 👍“

“Best lunch in Birmingham.“

“I had an amazing experience at Freddy’s! The food was fresh, hot, and delicious, and the restaurant was very clean and welcoming. What really made my visit stand out was the excellent customer service from Tionna. She was friendly, professional, fast, and made sure everything was taken care of. It’s rare to come across someone who works as hard and genuinely cares about customers the way she does. Tionna went above and beyond to make my experience great, and her positive attitude made my visit even better. Freddy’s is lucky to have such an outstanding employee. I will definitely be coming back and highly recommend this location!“

“I just had the best grilled chicken sandwich in my life! I went back to the store to compliment the cook, Darrell. He was very humble, but seriously, this was a fantastic taste experience! I eat at Jack's all over the state of Alabama because of travel, and Darrell makes the very best grilled chicken sandwich!
I encourage your corporate offices to find out exactly how Darrell does it and get every cook to do it the same way he does. Then give him a raise! He deserves it!!!“

“The steakhouse burger lacking in the fried onions on the burger as advertised! Once we got home the burger received suppose to look like the picture you're advertising! These are misleading what my husband and I received tonight and it was very dry 😒.. The Hibiscus Lemonade is very sour we're not a fan of that.The banana pudding milk shake is a great addition you should keep instead limited time.The service she gave was positive and vibrant.“

“Nakayla was amazing. Very polite, super efficient, she made sure all of my extra request were met and made sure to repeat each one back. I visited close to closing time and she did not make me feel like a nuisance like most places would at that time.“

“Great food and great service“

“Wings and okra are delicious Just need to clean their front door it’s covered in dirt and gunk It’s filthy If customers can see that I wonder what is in the kitchen..bathroom you can smell it entering the door and today I saw a huge roach crawling around inside. I probably won’t be eating here again.“

“Food was good, service was great and I must say they work hard here“

“I got a 5 piece whitening combo for my mom. I got a piece out of it. When I tell you that fish WAS SO GOOD!!!! Big full size pieces,crispy and seasoned to perfection! The cheeseburger on the Texas toast is good as well. I hadn't tried anything else yet but for what I've tried, I highly recommend!!!“

“I saw a review on here about someone had the special BBQ Brisket Steakburger and decided I would try it but never got to do it until today and was surprised they still had it going on. LOVED IT!! The BBQ sauce is sweet yet tangy but not overpowering like many BBQ places. The brisket on top of the double steakburgers were plenty and each strip was really meaty and not loaded with a lot of fat like other BBQ places. The pickles and sweet onions on top were a kicker also as they really added to the flavor with every bite. I am glad I had a big hungry appetite though because that burger was more than enough for a meal especially the healthy helping of shoe string fries!! Well done also to the staff for the prompt service from the moment I walked in with a welcome to Freddy's and the friendly smile of the cashier and the thank you from the cook when I picked up my order at the service counter!! Impressive for a fast food operation, but I will admit that having good employees to pass on the right attitude when working is important and this crew made the grade on that and more!! Thank you everyone!!“

“I stop by this location regularly for lunch breaks and the team here always does a great job. Today i decided to dine in for lunch and new employee Laila did a wonderful job with greeting, taking my order and making sure i was satisfied with my meal. Great location!“

“Great food 🥰🥰Great customer service 💯“

“8/27/2019 come join us at the new Forestdale Arbys“

“Picked up some delicious gyros on my way home tonight. they forgot my fries😭 but as soon as I called they handled it swiftly and respectfully. Very impressed. Great customer service and killer gyros.“

“I’m sure this doesn’t happen often so I just wanted to give you guys a great review for having James as a part of your team. I went to your store on 7/31/20 and this man went above and beyond to help me. He was kind, courteous, and willing to make everyone feel welcomed. He is very well spoken and super polite. Keep up the good work James you deserve all the blessings you have coming to you. Thank you sir!“

“All of the workers were super kind and friendly and the service was quick and accurate (even when we had a large group order)! They waited patiently for us to figure out the order and even reviewed the order before having it finalized. Would definitely recommend! Not to mention the food was delicious and fresh!“

“Chick-fil-A always sets the standard when it comes to great food and even better customer service. The staff was friendly, professional, and made the whole experience easy from start to finish. The food was fresh, hot, and exactly what you expect when you go there. It’s hard to beat a place that stays this consistent. Definitely one of the best places to grab a meal“

“***UPDATE***

After my previous review, the owner personally reached out via phonecall. I’ve since returned to the restaurant multiple times for breakfast and am pleased to report that the horribly overpowering vanilla stench is gone. All is well, thank you Jerry Cotney.“

“We had a small miscommunication while ordering, The good.
Workers in here We're able to slow down and explain to us.And help make our meal extremely satisfactory.. Everyone here is extremely proper.I would suggest this chick fil a over any other one“

“Went to the drive thru in Qxford, ordered two turkey gyros. Got home my husband had some hair in his first bite. I lost my appetite, gave him the other sandwich. It was hairless.“

“Great service and restaurant. The new layout of the parking lot is a bit weird, and the employees do their best and are all very polite, but you run the risk of becoming trapped in the drive thru if theres any kind of hold up ahead of you, bc theres no way to exit the lanes after you get into them due to the new parking lot layout.Recommend ordering on the app and picking up in store or getting curbside to avoid the drive thru, esp if you have anxiety or any agoraphobic tendencies related to driving“
