Restaurants in Northport

“First time going today and I will be back!!! Service was amazing.”

“City Cafe has been our favorite little place for over 30 yrs. This cafe is an absolute gem! Sweet tea and dumplings are excellent! Breakfast and lunch here is incredibly delicious. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, perfect for catching up with friends. The owners are great and the staff are friendly and really go the extra mile to make you feel welcome - definitely a go-to spot in the neighborhood!"”

“Great Food And Great Service”

“Good … Fresh … HOT food 👍👍👍👍🙂🙂🙂 sooooooo delicious!!!!!!”

“Excelente servicio, comida y atención ️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“We ate here before the A day game this past weekend and it was, hands down, one of the very best meals we have had in a long time. Home cookin at its finest - served up by some of the nicest people you could meet. Rare to find fantastic food AND service these days - this place has both. If we lived nearby, we would be regulars. It will be a "have to" stop anytime we are coming through T-Town.”

“Their combo specials are great! So far we've tried the honey chicken, fried rice, steamed rice, sesame chicken, chicken with broccoli, and the egg rolls. The lady who runs the store has been very kind, and she even recognized me after only two visits. We'll definitely keep coming back.”

“My family and I have gotten pizza there before, for the most part it was great! Hopefully if we ever do get pizza there again, it’ll be as great as we remembered”

“Best food all around! 5 out of 5!”

“Jalapeños restaurant is OUTSTANDING! A few miles from home for us, but well worth the drive if you must.
Staff are friendly and prompt, FOOD is EXCELLENT! Awesome place!
Thank you Jalapeños for serving Coker/Northport/Tuscaloosa with great service! 🙏🏻👍🏻👍🏻”

“I love Taco Casa. I have been eating it my whole life! The only thing I dislike is that all the sauces; mild, hot, extra hot, taste exactly the same! Step it up Taco Casa.”

“First time coming here and it was EXCELLENT!!!! Very very good. The service was EXCELLENT. The portions were extremely satisfying for the price. Cocktails were delicious and strong. We had the Ribeye, Burger, Wings, Fried Green Tomatoes and Bread Pudding… EVERY SINGLE BITE AMAZING all the way down to the broccoli! So glad to have found this gem in a town where food is typically mediocre. The owner Hunter was such a joy to interact with and we felt like family. HURRY UP AND COME ON DOWN 69 SOUTH!!!!! Will be back as often as we can! Can’t wait to try the Oysters next!”

“En Taquería Dolores, disfrutas de unos verdaderos tacos mexicanos y a buen precio!”

“Fantastic food! Outstanding service! Surprisingly low price.”

“Catfish Charlie has the best Catfish. Cooked just right. I have a cousin who will drive from Virginia just to get their Catfish and hushpuppies. And will eat your Catfish 3 or 4 times while they are here.”

“Sarah made us a beautiful cake and cupcakes. Everything not only was beautiful but tasted wonderful! Expectations exceeded!”

“Great folks and awesome food! Love the burgers and BBQ chicken! *****”

“Most delicious barbecue in town! Moist and smoky without fat. Best, most tender, and meaty ribs! Only place I go for ribs and barbecue. Sandwiches are large…big buns.”

“10/10 Great food, great service, no complaints whatsoever”

“My daughter wanted a Dora the Explorer cake, and they were able to take a couple of inspiration pics and make her cake super cute. She loved it and it tasted great!”

“Wow. What an absolutely amazing establishment. From the great mulch job as well as well taken care of shrubs, this really set the tone for the meal. We were immediately sat and had our order taken about 30 seconds, and it was busy! The server was amazing and the crew was really going hard at work in the kitchen to keep this ship sailing. Food was out super fast and it was amazing. I can confidently say this is the best Waffle House I have ever been to in my entire life. Bravo.”

“It’s always a treat to come home and eat here. I just left form here and your staff and managers are always so friendly.”

“First time going and it was great. Only a few minutes wait. Pizza was delicious and the atmosphere was great. We'll go here before Mellow Mushroom from now on.”

“I love having Dockside open up Hwy 43 to give us another option for dinner close to home! If you haven’t tried the fried shrimp or the catfish, you’re definitely missing out! There’s just something extra about the breading that had me eating ALL my shrimp and not sharing with my husband! 🤣 Highly recommend checking it out!”

“Everything from this place is SO good. Their street corn is delicious too (not pictured). Staff is so friendly as well!! Love this place!”

“Good chicken salad offerings. Quick prep time. Good soups with the chicken poblano and loaded potato being of note. I also enjoy the free cookie and ample amount of captains wafer crackers provided with my meal”

“Absolutely delicious food. Do yourself a favor and try their made from scratch biscuits. Not only they make them freshly every single day but also they have so many custom flavors to choose from! Coffee people - you will definitely enjoy their delicious coffee. Moreover, the friendly atmosphere is beyond comparison- the ladies are sweet and very personable. Our favourite breakfast place in town.”

“My coworker and I tried it for the first time today. I swear the food was what you would get in a Stouffer’s TV dinner! I got hamburger steak. My coworker ordered Salisbury steak. Both were the same meat. Like some kind of mystery meat. And don’t get me started on the “Mac and cheese”. Terrible!!”

“Very good food, served fresh and hot. Servers were all very attentive and did an excellent job. We had a large group (14people) so we kept them hopping, but they never missed a beat.”

“we have dined at this restaurant a few times in the past and the food was good. But on Friday April 26 2025 we ordered the Dos Amigos special and the shrimp in the dish was spoiled and rotten. The shrimp had a overpowering fishy smell and taste and this is usually a indication that he shrimp is spoiled. Once i informed the staff they offered to take the charge off ,but never did i was still charged for the stinky rotten disgusting shrimp and food! 🤢🤮🤢🤮”

“Hot&sour soup was good & so was the Mongolian beef & the sweet & sour chicken! It was really good and the only complaint I have is I need a little more sweet & sour sauce 😆 other than that it's totally worth it. Does need some veggies thrown in though. My favorite is Pearl Garden and this is just below that. Only place I've found that has similar soup.”

“The worker Heidi is AMAZING. She ran the driver thru, made the orders perfect and answered the phone line the first ring. She made our banana splits as if she knew us personally. She didn't want our order to melt so she took the time to put the warm sauce on the side without requesting. Thanks for your great customer service!!!!”

“My friend had to have ACL surgery in Birmingham, and we had been in the hospital all day. We didn't get back in to Tuscaloosa until about 5 minutes til 10 pm and they close at 10. The ladies working were so nice and understanding about making our food. We apologized because we all know how that feels. Thank you, Guthries of Northport for you exceptional and very ki d service!”

“A friend of mine asked me to go to Waffle House this morning at 4:30 am. We were both awake, and he asked if I was hungry. I haven't been to a Waffle House for over two years. I ordered the All-Star special for both of us. Two Scrambled Eggs with Toast & Jelly; choice of Grits, Hashbrowns or Sliced Tomatoes; a Waffle and your choice of Bacon, Sausage or City Ham. I ordered hash browns and the sausage. He wanted grits and sausage. The waffle was really good. The entire meal was great. I had to carry it to go. They do a nice job of packing plastic ware, butter, and syrup inside the bag with the food. I should have asked for jelly, salt, and pepper.”

“Excellent customer service and excellent breakfast We are visiting from California.”

“Best bbq in Tuscaloosa hands down!!!!! Highly recommend!!”

“Love this place. Shake are delicious and very filling.”

“Estimated time for pickup said 7-12 minutes. I ordered at 5:39pm. I got there at 6:28pm, and they said it would be 15 more minutes. I finally got my order at 6:50pm. Normally they are good on Estimated times and I always wait an extra 10 minutes before I show up just in case. But tonight was horribly wrong. Estimated pickup was an hour off.”

“Food was good and delicious!”

“Chick-fil-A is known for consistent quality, and the new Northport location is no exception when it comes to fresh, hot food and gracious service. Every order I’ve placed has been spot-on—crispy chicken, hot waffle fries, and perfectly prepared breakfast items like chicken biscuits and hash browns. The staff is friendly, welcoming, and never misses a “my pleasure.”

That said, the speed of service has felt a little off during my recent visits. The drive-thru lines can get long (as expected), but even once you’re in line or at the window, the rhythm sometimes feels clunky. It’s not chaotic—just slower than what I’ve come to expect from other Chick-fil-A locations. This might be due to it being a newer store still finding its groove, and I want to give grace for that.

What stands out is the team’s attitude. Even when it’s busy or a bit delayed, they don’t rush interactions or skip on courtesy. That professionalism matters and makes the wait a little more tolerable. I can see this store improving with time and training—and I’ll definitely keep returning, especially since the food quality hasn’t missed a beat.

Overall, it’s a solid addition to the Northport area. Once they tighten the flow a bit, it’ll match the excellence Chick-fil-A fans have come to expect.”

“I always come to McAlisters when I want healthy hearty food and it’s always amazing at a good price. But what I want to say is I visited tonight and I had a wonderful experience date of visit was 5-12-25 at 8:45pm. I didn’t get her name but the lady running up front did an amazing job and I am so appreciative as outstanding customer service is very rare!”

“What a great place to eat. Clean, friendly, fast and most of the Wonton Soup is the best in the 🌎.”
