At least the ones I’ve eaten at personally…these spots are delicious and highlight bhams foodie scene
Map
Great for yummy Mexican inspired fusion and they just opened a Homewood location!
El Barrio
Yummy pasta dishes, pizza and more! Great for a date night or cozy birthday dinner with friends. I recommend the pizzas!
Bettola
Casual spot for beer, mixed drinks, and games! The hotdogs hit the spot!
Paramount - Downtown Birmingham
21 and up so it’s totally the move for date night! The drinks are crafted beautifully and the CORNDOG is a must!
Carrigan's Public House [21+ Only]
Go for the beer, stay for the vibes. Quite literally like you went back to the 80s and hung out in your friend basement. One of the cooler bars in Birmingham!
Mom's Basement
The best crispy almost burnt crust that sings! Get the four seasons pizza for a bit of everything!
Vecchia Pizzeria & Mercato
The country fried chicken is raved about. A cute cozy, French style place that is perfect for a date out!
Cafe Dupont
The best ramen there is! Add burnt ends or brussel sprouts for a treat! FYI they only take parties of 4 or less and it’s 21+ but that makes for a very cool, cozy adults only vibe but the food is the real star!
Shu Shop
Late night tacos, and more! The chiccharones with guac is the move!
Salud Taqueria
The pasta and pizza always slap but go for brunch!
Trattoria Zaza
This is the BEST burger in Birmingham undisputed! You cannot get a better burger and fried Oreos!
Jack Brown's Beer & Burger Joint Birmingham
This place is 10/10, they have the best seafood in the city. The ambiance is wonderful - sit at the raw bar!
