26 Best Southern Restaurants near Pelham

“Great food and service. Highly recommend.“

“Can I give 6 stars? This place is so good. The guy running it is amazing. The gumbo was so good. The boudin balls were so good. Do not be afraid to get a half muffuletta, we took half of that half home! We travel the country full-time and love finding places like this. We went twice during the week we were in the area.“

“Had only visited this location once a couple of years ago when it first opened & was not impressed with food quality....decided to drop in to see how things are now & was pleasantly surprised. We arrived for a late lunch & noted very few patrons in dining room. Our server, Ian, was friendly & attentive. We enjoyed the fried catfish ( farmed in Mississippi!) and the New Orleans style crab claws in a savory broth. Side salad was fresh & appetizing. The fried okra was some if not the best I've had locally. We also opted for take home desserts....lemon blueberry cheesecake & the bread pudding....both were very good. Looking forward to dining here again! Service was excellent as well.“

“Kudo's to this Full Moon BBQ place in Pelham. To us it is the best of all of them and we have tried a number of them in our area. Generous food portions, delicious BBQ- hot and ready to go for us. This customer experience was very pleasing. I hope they can keep it up!“

“Quality food and service.“

“My favorite Ashley Mac’s meal is the pimento grilled cheese (topped with poppy’s pickles), broccoli slaw, and a slice of strawberry cake. It always hits the spot! I also love that I can order ahead online to avoid a longer wait time during busy hours.“

“This is one of our favorite places for lunch. I always get the baby blue salad with a scoop of chicken salad and it’s perfect every time! My husband came with me on Friday and got the burger; it was delicious! The place is clean, the food is great and the people are friendly. We love Ashley Mac’s!“

“Love everything about this place. The atmosphere, menu selection, cocktails and wine list are always amazing. Love that everything is seasonal. The live music on weekends is a nice touch as well. Must try Rodney’s key lime pie and the Kathleen’s cosmo martini!“

“I been dreaming about them turkey 🦃 legs 🍗 & the 🌽 CORN ‼️omg I could eat the whole can lol 😋🤤.. . .BEST I'VE EVER HAD.. . #IHIGHLY RECOMMEND 🥰🤟🏽“

“A former college teammate of mine took my son and I to this fabulous steak and seafood place. The food was great and the historical atmosphere added to the fantastic food. Plan to bring my wife here on my next trip down south. I know she will love it!“

“Places to go order 9/16 11:15am. Asked hostess a question. She said she doesn’t speak English…“

“Great experience as usual! Evan was very cheerful and a delight!“

“Brought my mom for lunch. I ordered The Chick with Fancy Nancy and mac-n-cheese. I like the apples, nuts, and grapes in Fancy Nancy. I did not enjoy the mac-n-cheese. It wasn’t very flavorful and seemed over cooked to me. It seemed like a weird color. That’s what made me think it was overcooked. I wish I had gotten the spinach salad instead of the mac-n-cheese. The spinach salad was great last time. I just thought I would try something different. My mom said her was ok.“

“Last weekend (2 weeks ago) I finally got to try Biscuit Belly: Hoover. We had been out running earns and shopping and realized we had not eaten breakfast and it was close to lunch and we just so happen to be close by and this place has been on my list anyways. This place is definitely what it says it is. Biscuits everywhere man. If you're a biscuit lover then this is definitely for you! I ordered a Not Chicken and Waffle (I think that's what it was called) and basically it was a split biscuit cooked like French toast and those that know me know French toast is my favorite. I have a tier list it's French toast, waffles, then pancakes for me. Also those that know me know I don't care much for biscuits but these were good especially with the syrup on top. Now the chicken itself was nicely seasoned and I could tell they cooked it fresh. I could also tell they don't marinate their chicken which is fine but it's easily noticeable when chicken isn't marinated because you can taste it's pure white chicken breast. As I said before it was good and crunchy and still seasoned well. I liked it. I give the meal an 8/10. The service was good as well it was very crowded but the way the service was you couldn't tell. Everyone was so nice and very patient. The food came out fairly quickly as well. I was impressed and happy. 10/10 on services. Would I come back here? Absolutely I have a few more things I'd like to try! If you are ever in the Hoover area or live in the Hoover area check this place out!“

“I love the deviled eggs and the muffins! Of course the BBQ is delicious but the Pies are a must try! The staff is very prompt and courteous. I use curbside to pick up dinner and it’s convenient especially with all the traffic on 280.“

“Everything is made from scratch, I highly recommend marbled beef brisket, ribs and the best catfish!!!“

“The 1/4th cheeseburger and the fried peach pie... both of them are really good!“

“Family friendly and amazing service. Couldn't ask for a better down to earth and understanding environment. We have 3 small children and they were very patient with our family of 5. We can't wait to go back for more!! The vibe was amazing.

Kid-friendliness: Very accommodating, have coloring sheets and crayons for the kids“

“Gotta say a big thank you to Jim ‘n Nick’s BBQ in Athens, GA. I drove through there, hoping to get the awesome sounding baked potato that is described on their menu. After ordering my kiddo’s chicken fingers, I asked for the potato only to be told they had run out of them for the night. 😞 when I pulled up to pick up our food,  the chef (Matt) had found out that I had really wanted a potato and so he gave me one for free. That makes potato might’ve been part of his employee meal he was taking home. I don’t know but that gentleman made my night.  by the way, the potato is very good, but the service was even better!“

“I was expecting to pay $50-$60 bucks for a decent seafood bag. I had a boil bag DELIVERED for $42 and i picked 3 meats! It was almost two pounds and was fresh and delicious. There flavors we spot on. I strongly recommend the crawfish in your bag they were 5-star worthy. I will definitely order from here again“

“Jeff Lewis at Full moon in Trussville was awesome. I called to get information about placing a order for next day pick up he gave me all the information I needed, I had to call back to place the order and he answered very kindly and on the second ring . I'm very impressed with his Knowledge and suggestion of what to order. He was so professional. I will not be pick up my food until tomorrow but if the food is as good as his service I will definitely be back.“

“Great food and service.“

“Thank you so much to the young lady that just made my granddaughters day . Something she will remember for a long time.“

“I had an issue with my pick up order left a review. They called the next day and the manager was absolutely amazing at correcting the issue and making it right! Definitely the best customer service I have had from a restaurant in a long time!“
