“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!“

“Randy did a great job serving at the bar and the drinks she made were ???.“

“It was my very first time here and the service was amazing, I can’t wait to come back and bring me family.“

“Great service and food is always good.“

“If I could give more than five stars, I would. This place really knows what it’s doing. The food ranks among the best I’ve had, and the whole setting feels ideal for a date night or a business dinner.

The atmosphere leans upscale, so it’s the kind of spot where business casual, Sunday best, or slightly dressier attire fits right in. Prices are on the higher side, but for a special occasion it’s absolutely worth it. The wait staff are polished, attentive, and very professional, which ties the entire experience together.“

“Great customer service, and the ice cream is fantastic. I definitely would recommend!“

“Absolutely phenomenal. Very good food. Friendly staff. Highly recommend“

“Dude…

This is easily in the top 5 coffee shops I’ve ever visited. Tim is a barista’s barista, pleasant to talk to, knows his craft and ready to share his excitement about coffee. The espresso was delicious, smooth, fragrant, sweet, not overly acidic or bitter. The other drinks celebrate the coffee without distracting from it, something I don’t see nearly as often as I’d like.

The shop itself is a welcoming space, lots of natural light, comfortable environment. Great vibe all the way around.

Prices are absolutely fair considering the quality of service and product I received. I’m absolutely coming back ASAP.“

“My partner and I were in town from California and this place is the ticket for true coffee consumers. Clean space with a great vibe . The coffee is fantastic and the staff is spot on and friendly. Can t wait to return. Thanks guys“

“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.“

“Vecchia’s overall is amazing! Delicious food, a variety of beverages, great atmosphere and most of all a superb staff! In addition, they offer throughout the week live music entertainment, 1/2 off wine on Wednesday, kid’s eat free on Tuesdays, Cooking classes, and bouncy house for kiddos on the weekends. Highly recommend!!!“

“Food was good, but everything was cold. Really like the place the staff is excellent. Wish they would concentrate on making sure that the food arrives hot.“

“Eat before you come. Tried the food truck.....again and the same. Waaaay overpriced (even for a food truck) and meh at best. Didn't even get texted so it sat for awhile, which is pretty common. Beer and service inside was top notch as always. Good selection of booze. We love coming and have a great time but eat before you come.“

“We have always enjoyed Baha Burger. Due to medical issues, it’s been some time since we last ate there. The owner was always so courteous to us and eager for us try new things. He introduced me to the delicious remoulade that is a must for all things I order. However, our most recent experience made us feel differently. I know people have off days. We are all entitled to them….BUT…while we were eating, we overheard the owner yelling at the cook (he was standing directly behind us) about how many tater tots he put on my sons plate. He said it was too much for a child portion and went on and on about it. There were nine tater tots on his plate and he ate them all. My son overheard him yelling at the cook and asked me if he should give some of them back. That hurt my heart that my five year old felt guilty eating a meal that was set in front of him. I’m sure we will still give them our business because the food is amazing. I just hope the owner understands that sometimes things should be handled differently. Nine tater tots was not a true reason to have gotten so upset. Now if it had been ten….😜“

“I absolutely love this place! literally, this place is absolutely phenomenal. there's two separate bartenders that are there on any given morning... both these girls are absolutely fantastic. both of them are really really pretty and they've got amazing attitudes, they've always got a smile on their face and what's amazing is, you can walk in on a Monday morning like this morning, knowing it's Monday and it's overcast and those two girls were laughing and cutting up and smiling and it just put you in a really really really amazing mood to start your day. I'm of the belief that if we can be around people that can brighten our day, then we definitely should. these girls start my morning off on a positive foot. I don't feel like a customer, honestly I try to bring them either energy drinks or donuts and then eat the world's greatest biscuits and gravy, that gravy is absolutely amazing, and there's always a smile on their face, it's always an amazing time and I look forward to each time I come which is about 3 or 4 days a week. the stores always really clean, and it smells amazing. the restrooms are always in great condition, sitting at the bars amazing, there's never food left around or sitting around, they're quick to clean up the tables, these girls really run the show, and everybody else in the background does an amazing job too. really thankful for this place, and I'm really glad that I get to be a part of the BBB family! Yall rock“

“Travis Chicago Style Food Truck is hands-down the best ever! The hot dogs are unmatched, the burgers are incredible, and the flavors are always on point. Damian has the best customer service and is truly the sweetest soul — friendly, fast, and always makes you feel welcome. If you’re looking for the best Chicago-style eats around, this is the spot!“

“This place is awesome. The vibes are good and bartenders are so nice. Drinks are spectacular and creative.“

“Johin’na is a dazzling new gem in Birmingham’s vibrant culinary scene! From the moment you step through the door, you’re immersed in an atmosphere that promises a truly unique and unforgettable experience. The decor is a breathtaking fusion of creativity and elegance, unlike anything else in the city—every detail is thoughtfully curated to spark wonder and delight. The staff’s warmth and hospitality take the evening to extraordinary heights. We were incredibly fortunate to have founder Chef Amber step out of the kitchen to serve as our guide for the night. Her deep knowledge of the menu and infectious passion for the dishes made our choices effortless and exhilarating. Her expertly recommended pairings perfectly complemented our tastes, transforming each course into a culinary adventure. Adding to the magic, we had the privilege of chatting with founders Executive Chef Ashley and Shun Love, whose vision and warmth made us feel like family. We’ve never felt more welcomed in a restaurant! Beyond their culinary genius and gracious hospitality, the sisters and their mother are absolutely stunning, radiating charm and grace that elevate the entire experience. Every dish we savored was a masterpiece, bursting with bold, innovative flavors that showcase the creative spirit of Johin’na’s kitchen. The meticulous attention to detail in both presentation and taste was impeccable, leaving us eager to return and explore more of the menu. Johin’na isn’t just a meal—it’s a soulful experience that lingers long after the last bite. Birmingham is beyond lucky to have this treasure, and I can’t recommend it highly enough!“

“Great customer service, and the ice cream is fantastic. I definitely would recommend!“

“Great pizza and salad, friendly service!!“

“Great place to have an event! Kristin and her staff are awesome! Highly recommend“

“This is one of the hidden gems in town! Always fantastic food and I eat here at least twice a week. The service is outstanding and always friendly. Sue the hostess that works the door is amazing. She remembered my name by the second visit and always greets me with a smile?. The entire staff is unbelievable and you feel like you are eating lunch with best friends. Highly recommend!!!“

“Nice people and customer service was good too.“

“The staff is always super nice!! The Gooey Butter cake is the best ice cream I've ever had!!“

“Great beer and atmosphere!“

“I just want to shine light on this business you are doing an awesome job. Keep up the good work you are extremely blessed. Excellent service wonderful work respectful reasonable. I’ll give this business 10 stars if I can. May god continue to grant you much success.“

“Hayley made the cutest double layer 4 cookie cake for my sons birthday! His birthday was Batman themed and I expressed that I did not want a lot of black since it’s so messy and she totally came through! Enough black to make it Batman but also incorporated plenty of other colors so it wasn’t a whole mess. On top of the design being perfect, the cake was truly the best cookie cake I’ve ever had. Definitely would order from her again! 🤍🖤“

“Wow, wow, wow. When I asked the waiter, how long the restaurant had been there, I was almost mad at myself when he told me it has been in Birmingham eight years. Why didn’t I find this place sooner? I went with my sister and my brother-in-law for dinner, we felt like we were eating in the French quarter. It’s the best Cajun food I’ve had north of New Orleans. You must try the shrimp, poor boy, better yet get the surf and turf because the roast beef will blow your mind. My sister and I also had the gumbo, the hush puppies are Devine, succotash was really good, and oh my wonderful tastebuds, the muffaletta was something like you would have on Bourbon Street. If you like Cajun food, this place has great food and a fun environment with lots of outdoor seating. Dog friendly to boot! I highly recommend that you try this at least once if you live in Birmingham or are visiting.“

“Absolutely divine food. Very glad we choose to try you. We got take away“

“5 stars all the way around!! From the host, to the server, to the hibachi chef, and the sushi chefs, everything was amazing! We will definitely be back!“

“Great food! $5 mimosa carafe before 11 am on Saturday and Sunday brunch. Great customer service.“

“Great food and service- will definitely return ❤️“

“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 order pickup from here regularly and it is always a pleasant experience. The food is so good, my go to is the rib sandwich. The ribs are smoky and tender with just the right amount of seasoning. For the price you get a large amount of food. The staff are always smiling and friendly which rounds out an overall great experience.“

“Love this place! Came in for breakfast while in town and had a wonderful experience. My waitress was Anna and she was very attentive and knowledgeable of the menu and very friendly! Will be back again!!“

“We have gone to Freddy’s many times and always had an amazing experience! The service is always amazing, the wine plentiful, and the food delicious and consistent. We had a party for my husband’s birthday this past weekend and were so impressed by the execution of service. If you want to be truly taken care of, come to Freddy’s!“

“Always find something good to drink. Love the atmosphere.“

“Delicious food and very nice people.“

“Gluten Free? Highly recommend the Anvil. Rather than just listing a few gluten-free options, they have an entire gluten-free menu. Also, the fish fry is amazing, as are the cocktails.“
