“We went to Magnolia Point for the first time last night and are so glad we did. The food was delicious, service fast and attentive and the prices very reasonable. It’s a great place to take kids because it’s got lots of food they would like (fish tocos, hamburgers, etc) and not too fancy. There’s also a great outdoor patio that we cant wait to try. We’ll be back for sure!“

“Soooo one of my customer’s made me a plate from his restaurant today and I have to tell you….i have NEVER experienced Macaroni & Cheese like this. It was like a tangy-lemon-limey-feta-cheesy- dab of SHEER HEAVEN!!!! And the fresh Collard Greens? Oh. My. lord. THE BEST I have EVER had…EVER!!!! Better than my Grannie’s, god rest her soul. The Chicken was divine and I saw that they also barbeque Lamb Chops. I’ll try those next time. Everyone there are some of the kindest folks you will ever meet. Don’t feel like eating in? Go through the drive-thru and get a quart of that Mac-n-cheese and collards. I can’t even begin to describe how delicious they are. For real!!!! They Cater too!!! Divine!!!!“

“Great food and service- will definitely return ❤️“

“Love this place. The food is absolutely amazing! they've got a beautiful waitress as well, she's always really kind and really sweet and really outgoing, very personable. she's very knowledgeable of the menu, always has a smile on her face and always makes you feel like your family when you come in. the prices are really great as well. there's nowhere else you can go to get an entree for $15.99, that's about average at location. you can't go to McDonald's for that. great food, great fun, great times, and I look forward each time that I go. I just got back today actually, I went to dinner there tonight. love it!“

“Excellent food and service 😊“

“Our first time to eat here was very nice! Our food was delicious- everything we had was very good. Ricco served us and was exceptional. He was very attentive and helpful with our questions and delivered our food exactly as we ordered it. Be sure to ask for Ricco - he will take good care of you! Thanks Ricco - we will be back!“

“we've been here several times. They have very good food ! I recommend everything ! stop in and say hi to Oscar ! he's a fantastic Waiter 👏 👌“

“Went to Amore tonight for our anniversary dinner. Our waiter, Robert, was outstanding explaining the specials of the day and suggesting a great wine which really complimented our dinner of shrimp and lobster linguine which was cooked to perfection. Our dessert of crème brûlée was spectacular! The best meal we have had in a while and I highly recommend Amore for a truly enjoyable experience.“

“The food tastes very good. You definitely get your money’s worth and it was super quick the lobster tails were cooked to perfection and the crab legs too definitely recommend“

“My first visit there, but I had read the reviews and was a little sceptical. Yes, the decor was low budget plastic and the disposable plates were still the usual for Covid, but the food was very good. No better fried shrimp and oysters. Everything was cooked to order and hot from the fryer. I think some previous reviewers were expecting Captain D's prices for very good seafood. I will definitely be going back when I want good seafood.“

“My first time at Bellini's and it has a lovely atmosphere. We had one in our party with a red meat allergy. Someone other than our waitress brought the food out and when she came back to the table she was very concerned and conscientious, making sure the correct plate was delivered to the correct diner. We also had a 19 month old with us and our waitress was so sweet to accommodate the baby as well. There was just enough crowd noise that we didn't feel like our toddler was disturbing anyone. The food was delicious all around. We will definitely be back.“

“Awesomeness! Seafood Shack offers a large selection of delicious choices you wouldn't find in the other Seafood restaurants or any other of restaurants in the area. A huge plus is how NomNom GOOD all of the food offered tastes. Love the prices! Thank you very much for your
service with a smile every time we enter, order, and stay to eat. This restaurant will always know success!“

“Flew in from Houston and so glad I stopped here. Had the fried green tomato BLT with a cold PBR draft and it was amazing! If you’re in Birmingham you gotta give this place a try, 100 out of 100 ⭐️’s!!“

“Some of the best chicken in Center Point AL!!! Always cooked to perfection, just the right amount of lemon pepper, fried hard! ? Must try if you are in the Center Point area. Never had any issue with customer service, quick getting the orders out.“

“Fresh delicious food and friendly service. The place is gorgeous.“

“Not a big fan for seafood but got it recommended so I had to try it myself. Pretty simple menu, with good variety to choose from. Focused mainly on the most popular seafood items. I was surprised they didn't have grouper on the menu. I had the pick 3 fried combo with Cajun fries and i was totally satisfied with what I had. They have a garlic seasoning very good with a touch of Cajun on it called King seasoning. It is a must try on your boiling combos 💪💪.
If you are seafood lover must give this place a try and see yourself. Dont forget add hushpuppies in your order.“

“So I visited Carters Hooka bar & Grill for the first time. I had seen so many good reviews on another site so I decided to give it a try. To say I was underwhelmed wouldn't suffice. The atmosphere was nice, chill little vibe. Good music, good vibes, bad food & Drinks were disgusting. We ordered shrimp & grits, steak & shrimp, 2 blue MF (drinks) & Cajun ranch cheese fries. The grits were under cooked, no seasoning, and tasted like water. We added salt and that didn't help at all. The sausage was burnt and it was a little too done. The shrimp was seasoned but it didn't balance the grits. The steak and shrimp tasted like each other. They didn't have a distinct flavor, it's like they cooked it together. The steak was waaayyy overcooked and the heat wasn't hot enough because the steak didn't have a char on the outside. It was spicy along with the shrimp. It did come with 2 potatoes covered in cheese and a side salad that was mostly tomatoes & cucumbers minimal lettuce. The drinks were not good but not bad. Too much alcohol, the end that's all. I would come back but definitely not for the food.“

“Stopped in for lunch with my toddler and sat outside. Staff was super friendly and welcoming, which was a nice start. Food-wise…it wasn’t the best I’ve ever had, but definitely not the worst either. I’d eat here again.

The kid’s corn dogs were a hit and my daughter devoured them. Fries were very salty (which I actually love), but a bit much for my toddler, so I kept those to myself. The egg rolls were just okay, like a 3/5. They needed a better dipping sauce…. not sure what exactly, but the ones that came with it were kinda blah.

Wings had good flavor, but they had that weird fridge taste… might’ve just been me. I took them home, tossed them in some hot BBQ sauce, hit them with the air fryer, and they turned out pretty tasty.

Sitting outside was fine, but a few patio fans would’ve helped with the heat. There were a lot of flies, but hey….. that’s just outdoor dining sometimes.

Oh and when it’s time to pay, you have to pay on their handheld device and it’s just annoying to me. It’s 2025, just give me a receipt with a QR Code to scan (with exception of paying cash).

Overall, chill spot. I’d come back.“

“Hot and Fresh Food, Superb Menu!“

“My recent visit to Good Friends Chinese & Seafood was a delightful journey into Chinese cuisine. The restaurant's inviting atmosphere set the stage for a satisfying meal. I ordered fried rice, egg rolls, and shrimp, and each dish was a delight. The fried rice was flavorful and perfectly cooked, the egg rolls were crispy and packed with savory fillings, and the shrimp was a succulent and flavorful treat. Good Friends Chinese & Seafood's dedication to authentic Chinese flavors and high-quality ingredients was evident in every dish. The friendly service and the welcoming ambiance added to the overall enjoyable experience. Whether you're a fan of fried rice, egg rolls, shrimp, or simply seeking a taste of China, Good Friends is a must-visit. I'm already looking forward to my next visit to savor more of their delicious offerings!“

“My family dined for lunch today for my Dad's 87th birthday. Our waitress was so sweet and did everything perfectly, including indulging us by taking a family photo. Our table had boudin balls and hushpuppies appetizers. Several of our table had The Shrimp platter and it was a ton of food that they all enjoyed. 3 of us had the Melvin's Chicken plate which is 2 thin chicken breasts and some conecca sausage on top of mashed potatoes with sautéed onions and bacon drizzled in a sweet balsamic glaze. It was wonderful. The birthday boy had fried crab claws and french fries and beignets for dessert. Thank you Cajun Steamer for a great family meal.“

“Initially when hearing under new management I was worried. However, the wing sauce was incredibly delicious. The Cajun ranch okra was cooked with perfection. The food was hot, quick, and scrumptious! The atmosphere was clean and enjoyable. The service was phenomenal! I was greeted when entering. I was told of promotional deals. I was treated with respect and courtesy. Thank you! I will most definitely be back.“

“Fresh seafood and wonderful staff“

“This was our 32nd anniversary dinner. The restaurant made us feel welcome and special. Our starter was a gift of the house and we chose the charcuterie board. The board was well balanced and was a great start on the meal. With the starter we also had two signature cocktails for the fall menu. We chose the Infused Apple Bourbon drink and the Cranberry Sage Gin drink. These provided a great start to the meal. For our entrees we chose the Filet and the Kona-seasoned Lamb. Both were accompanied by broccolini and mashed potatoes. The meat was prepared perfectly and was well seasoned and sauced. The sides were well prepared as well. We finished the meal with a Belgian Chocolate Mousse. All in all an excellent meal.“

“I haven't been here in awhile so I decided too stop by. I usually go too a different state for seafood,but decided too rep my city for the deliciousness. Everything was still good too me and I can tell who ever in that kitchen wasn't stingy with the sauce.“

“When , I tell you it’s the best place to go for seafood. I use to like the crab barrack in centerpoint but they don’t let you call in an order and u have to wait over a hour for food. I’m glad that they have The Crab Barrack at the Crossplex, food was even better than others.“

“I was scared to stop by this restaurant because of the reviews I have read on here but I walked in spoke to the Asian lady and she spoke back .I came back the next week and the same lady took my order .I speak put in my order and wait while it's cooked fresh .The two young African American ladies I encounter has been nice and polite . I'm not sure if they read your reviews and changed but I haven't had not one problem and the food has bern hot and Delicious. I Pray it stays this way“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ First Visit – Absolutely Incredible! The atmosphere was cozy and elegant, and the staff made us feel right at home from the start. But the highlight of the night? The food—hands down some of the best Italian cuisine we’ve ever had. Every bite was full of rich, authentic flavor, and you can tell the ingredients are top-quality. From the appetizers to the desserts, everything was delicious and beautifully prepared. This place is a true gem and we’re already planning our next visit. If you haven’t been yet you’re missing out!“

“Super clean establishment! Fast friendly service and love the specials! 😍 Always something new here to catch my eye.“

“All the sandwiches I have tried have been awesome (and huge) but if you haven’t tried The Farmers Daughter, you should! Absolutely out of this world. Nothing like it!“

“They have some of the best food in town. Their fish is simply delicious. You can get family-sized servings for very economical prices. Need a quick DIY self-catering option? Call these folks!

Also, some of the freshest salad you've tried. Hands-down.

I bought a family-pack of fish for guests that I did not know were coming over. I needed a quick solution. The guests loved the food so much, one of them called me weeks later wanting info on the restaurant because she started craving the food.

Then another person who wasn't at my house that day called asking about it too because the guest was talking about their fish being so good😂 You have to try this restaurant ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Last night my husband and I ate dinner at Firebirds. Our steaks were INCREDIBLE. They could compete with Fleming’s or Perry’s. Our service was excellent. I wish I remembered our servers name, she was quick and very kind (she had on a David Yurman cross pendant, young and light brown hair). I do recommend making a reservation if you’re going on a Friday/Saturday night. As we were leaving, we heard the hostess say it would be a 3 hour wait for the party that just arrived. Will be back!“

“This is the best sushi I've found in the greater Birmingham area.
Amazing green tea
Super tasty takoyaki
Great value on the mini love boat. We asked for all sushi instead of half sushi half sashimi. The fish had great flavor.
Firecracker roll was a little sweet for me.
But if you like nigiri this is the place to go.“

“Omg, the food was good and plates was running over with food 10/10 for me. When I first went in there was a lot of people inside so at first I was not about to go in thinking the wait time would’ve exceeded my expectations but customer was placing orders and getting their order fresh to go you have the option of dining indoor and outdoors.“

“I wanted crab legs for my birthday, and the Crab Barrack did not disappoint! our table started with drinks and the fried calamari, which was delicious. Lightly fried, not greasy, and the meat was tender, not chewy. I ordered a 1/2 pound of crab legs, a lobster tail, and added a boiled egg; all in the garlic butter sauce. It was boiled to perfection! I was able to crack the legs with my hands and pull out solid pieces of meat. The meat was tender and not at all dry. It was the same for the lobster tail. The others at the table ordered fried okra, shrimp, and fish. Everything was delicious and we will definitely be back!!“

“This place is the bar version of the establishment. Good music that is played so one can hear it but can talk with others. Plenty of seating and a rustic darkish atmosphere. Emma is a very good bartender and fun, friendly. The food we had is worth the investment with chicken tenders , either grilled or blackened, thumbs up! Street corn also tasty. Seems to have plenty of parking nearby. Overall worth going here for food and drinks.“

“Good food nice and friendly staff“

“My wife and I have ordered Chinese food from this place and every time it has been really good. Their vegetable LoMein is far better than most places around with plenty of vegetables in it. The House Fried rice is really good as well. We usually get a large wonton soup as well and it is loaded with wontons, unlike some high priced places that only give you 1 wonton per order.The prices are very reasonable. One thing, this is not fast food so do not expect to get your meal in less that 20 to 30 minutes after ordering. We usually order to takeout and eat at home. The people that we met in there while waiting have been sociable and friendly. Also, if you have special needs, ask.“

“Dinner was absolutely amazing! Service was stellar. The Fleming's staff made tonight memorable from the moment O entered the building until my exit.“
