Restaurants in Vestavia Hills

“This is my favorite restaurant in the Birmingham area. I almost always get the fish of the day, served on a grit cake with a cream sauce. Delicious every time!”

“Wow what a great Chicken tender restaurant Dave's Hot Chicken is.
I'll start with the food. I ordered the #1 which is two tenders fries coleslaw and toast. I was hesitant that the portion size was only two tenders but I was PLEASANTLY SURPRIZED by the size of these tenders. 1 tender from Dave's is equal to like 3 tenders from other chains. The 2 tender meal was very satiating and filling. The tenders themselves were freshly cooked, crunchy on the outside and oh so juicy on the inside... literally PERFECT. The fries were crispy and seasoned very well and the special Dave's sauce was great, they gave me 2 extra sauce packets of it and i ate it all.
The service was really good, the employees were nice and professional but also friendly. This was my first time visiting Dave's and the cashier told me about the spice levels. I got mild which was perfect, not hot to make your nose drip but instead it was a nice small kick.
I know a lotta reviews show the inside of the restaurant which is done up really nice BUT the music was WAYYY too loud.”

“Lunch was so yummy! I had the rice bowl with gyro meat and everything was fresh and the flavors were on point. Sometimes gyro meat can be dry, but not at this place. The meat was so juicy and flavorful. The service was also really good, as well. I recommend checking them out.”

“I cannot say enough good things about Aaron at Crumbl Cookie. Tonight was my nephew’s 10th birthday, and he is absolutely obsessed with Crumbl. Unfortunately, because of work, I wasn’t able to get there until about 10 minutes after closing.

I called the store just hoping for a miracle, and Aaron answered. Instead of turning me away, he asked what I wanted, took my order over the phone, and told me to come see him when I arrived. When I got there, he greeted me with the warmest smile, handed me my box of cookies, and took care of everything.

He truly didn’t have to do that — but he went out of his way, went the extra mile, and showed genuine kindness just because he knew it would make my night. And it did. More importantly, it’s going to make my 10-year-old nephew’s night too.

Acts of kindness like this mean the world to people, and I will forever appreciate Aaron for it. Please go see Aaron at Crumbl — he is an awesome guy and a perfect example of what incredible customer service looks like.

Thank you so much, Aaron. You are truly amazing!”

“Great place to hang out and work/study! Great staff and delicious coffee plus try a homemade poptart if available!”

“We have visited Sunshine Creamery twice this summer and both times it was PACKED! Each worker behind the counter was so kind and patient with everyone. They were efficient even with the large crowds. The inside is clean and perfect for families. We love having this little treat spot in our neighborhood!”

“Such a great place! Got some wonderful snacks and a blueberry muffin that was divine!! very friendly gal helped me out and told me all about the other things that they have in their refrigerators freezers and are able to serve and cater for people! highly reccommend!”

“Visited my favorite ice cream shop today. If you need a little pick-me-up or a dose of pure joy, I highly recommend visiting Unless U Scoops any weekday between 1:00 p.m. 5:00 p.m. And the ice cream is pretty awesome also!”

“The house salad is excellent and I can't stop ordering it. The Chicken Sautee appetizer is unique and I can't stop ordering that, either. I'm still going through the rest of the menu and so far I've been more than happy.”

“Absolutely delicious 😋 Sorbet and Italian Ice! Coconut Cream was my Favorite! The staff was friendly and welcoming! Traveled from NC to visit family and will make this a regular stop for all future visits to Birmingham Area!”

“My family and I were at the Plantmania event in Daphne, AL and came across her booth.

The cookies were perfect, the filling.....mmmmm, but together....oh my!!!!”

“Slice is by far the best pizza I’ve ever had anywhere! I’ve had pizza in New York, Chicago and anywhere known for good pizza. Nothing else comes close! When I’m around Birmingham I always try to make time to go to one of their locations. Today I went to the one in Vestavia. The pizza was great and so was the service.”

Mac was nice, kind, greeted me with a smile & maintained his smile. if Mac was having a bad day, I promise you I wouldn't have been able to tell. The world needs more people like Mac. Happy to do their job”

“If the ratings went higher than 5 stars I would rank it higher. Birmingham is a city filled with great BBQ restaurants. If it isn't good BBQ, it won't last. My wife and I ate at Martin's Bar-B-Que Joint for the first time today, and we have found our new favorite BBQ joint. We enjoy watching Pat Martin's tv show, "Life of Fire," so we came with very high expectations. They surpassed them. When we stepped out of the car the smoke BBQ smell was amazing. I ordered a pulled pork shoulder sandwich and asked them to top it with coleslaw and had a side of mac & cheese and bought a second side, cornbread hoecake. Martha ordered the sliced brisket sandwich with a side of baked beans. I started with the mac & cheese. It was delicious with plenty of cheese and baked to perfection with a crispy cheese top. Really delicious. The cornbread hoecake was incredible it looks like and has the consistency of a pancake. You must order that when you go. Then I picked up the pulled pork shoulder sandwich and sunk my teeth in it. Oh, my! Pulled pork at its best. I added the Jack's Creek vinegar-based sauce to it, and wow, that added even more outstanding flavor to it. I've found my new favorite BBQ sauce. Martha thoroughly enjoyed her sliced brisket sandwich. We both had a bite of each others sandwiches and both were mouth-satisfying delicious. The brisket was perfect. The baked beans were very tasty, too. Everything was about as perfect as you can get at a BBQ joint. Pat Martin knows his BBQ, just as he displays on his show "Life of Fire." Before I could say anything, Martha said, "This is the best BBQ I've ever had. Let's come back for lunch tomorrow." She didn't have to twist my arm. We still like many other delicious BBQ restaurants in Birmingham, and will eat at them again, but Martin's Bar-B-Que Joint is our new favorite. In a city where BBQ is king, Martin's Bar-B-Que Joint sits atop the throne.”

“I can not speak more highly of the owners of Moe’s BBQ and the superb job they did catering my son’s rehearsal dinner. The food was extraordinary and the staff that came to help serve was phenomenal-very kind and so helpful. Great communication during the planning phases and so many compliments on the delicious dinner! Thank you for making my son’s rehearsal dinner exactly what he wanted!”

“Always love BWW, but lately it’s always FREEZING in there. So cold that you can’t be comfortable enjoying the food AND our food got cold fast because of the cold temp. It was colder inside than outside! Please fix the AC situation.”

“Great food, service and people 😀”

“great store, fast service, hot food”

“We had a birthday party today for my 4-year-old, and it was absolutely amazing. The staff was friendly, informative, and incredibly helpful—every single one of them greeted us with smiles and made the experience truly enjoyable. Everyone went above and beyond to make the day special. We will definitely be back to this location. Mariah, the manager, was absolutely amazing and helped make everything run smoothly.”

“Stopped by Crestline Bagel before work and it was the perfect start to my morning! The bagels were fresh, warm, and really tasty — easily some of the best I’ve had in a while. The staff were friendly, service was quick, and the place had a nice, relaxed vibe even during the morning rush. Definitely my new go-to breakfast spot before heading to work!”

“Order got screwed up Last nite Re done FREE 2 night”

“I haven't gone to Jersey Mike's in 2 years the reason being was the lack of employee pride , the lack of cleanliness of the store and the lack of effort put into the preparation of the food. you guys have done a 180 your employees there tonight were excellent the store was spotless and I will be back again you've gained a customer back thank you for seeing what your problem was and fixing it”
