Great service, however the food wasn't as incredible as I had expected. We had a couple of apps and none of them stood out. The grits were okay, so were the grilled figs. For entrees, the venison...

I agree that this is a snobby place but they have earned it by the reputaion and the well run dinning and bar. A great place to meet and greet. Food is great and drinks are made just right.

Every single thing on hte menu is divine and specially prepared. Frank Stitt is one of the master chefs of our time. The meal is worth a trip to Birmingham, though I am lucky to be a ten minute drive away. It is fabulous for all to enjoy. Try the fried seafood appetizer and the grouper is the best ever. If summer, try the watermelon margarita. THE BEST!
