Kinda sucks to say this since I've been eating here since I was a kid. I ordered from here through…read moredoordash, and Jim&Nicks was very thorough in making sure my bag was closed and safe from the third party carrier. The chicken was good, barbecue was delicious, I enjoyed my fries and mac&cheese. However, my appetite was ruined when I found some sort of fly baked into my cheese muffin? Not sure how it happened since in my experience, the restaurant is quite sanitary. Made me feel a bit put off since I'd already finished most of my food without looking that close. Really gross and not up to their normal standard.

My work decided to cater our employee holiday celebration, I heard this place was great through…read moreothers experience...I don't know who's pallet this is for but it was a no go on quality effort. Nothing had flavor and seemed straight from a can, not homemade in any fashion. I added salt and pepper after my initial taste test, bc I respect cooks/chefs enough to trust their seasoning judgment, but adding s&p still did nothing for the Mac or green beans. The only thing I ate was the ham between the roll. I wouldn't cater a wedding or special function based on my first impression at all. Dry and lacked intentionally of branding yourself.

I cannot begin to explain how much I enjoyed working with Jay and his wife on this project. They walked me all the way through!

This is one of my favorite spots to go to when I have free time! I went here while shopping out of…read morecuriosity and I was pleasantly surprised! It's right next to Panera Bread so it's sort of easy to miss as it is relatively small. There's limited menu options but I guarantee you each item is good! I normally get the turkey sandwich (I know it's a ham company lol) but it is amazing. The bread it made from Hawaiian rolls which adds a sweet twang to the sandwiches. The lettuce is always clean and the ingredients are really fresh! If you're a person that doesn't really like sweet foods this isn't the place for you. However, I suggest you give it a try! I also loved the salad even though I'm not a huge fan of salads it's a very refreshing item on the menu when you're looking to get a healthy splurge in. Overall this is a small hidden gem, super clean, and the customer service is always great!

Stopped by Smiley Brothers for lunch. Nice little restaurant with an old world vibe. Excellent wine…read morechoice, fresh cheese, dry aged ribeyes and fresh cut steaks. We were greeted promptly and took a few minutes to look at the menu. I LOVE roast beef, so it peaked my interest. My wife chose the Smiley burger. We placed our order and grabbed a seat. Place was quiet even though it was probably 75% full for lunch. Roast beef was served hot in toasted sour dough. Cheddar, tomato, lettuce and horseradish topped the generous portion of roast beef. Bread was crisp and the beef was hot and juicy. Horseradish gave a nice tangy flavor. My wife's Smiley burger was hand patted. Juicy and perfectly cooked. Bun was soft inside and nicely toasted in the outside. Bread and butter pickles, onion, tomato and lettuce topped it off. But the star of the show were the fries cooked in beef tallow!! Hot and salty, crispy and a deep flavor. I would come back just for the fries. Although a little bit pricey for lunch, it was excellent! Staff were friendly and attentive! Would highly recommend and will definitely be back! Thanks for an awesome lunch and excellent experience!

Buddy's is amazing! I absolutely loved my 1/2 slab of ribs and baked beans from here. The food is…read morepacked with flavor and definitely has that homemade touch! This isn't a big establishment and likely would be considered a whole in the hall. That's totally fine with me because I love a good hole in the wall. You walk in and you get a good view of the grill. That's where the magic happens! Hickory smoked meat perfection!! The staff was so nice and didn't rush me at all as I was trying to decide what to order. I have passed Buddy's many times in the past. I'm so glad I decided to stop in to grab dinner while I was in the area. Food is amazing!!!! The menu boasted a good variety so I'm excited to try more of their menu options. I will definitely be back real soon!!!

Sometimes I forget about Buddy's since they don't advertise or have any online presence so to…read morespeak. You just seem to go 'oh yeah" when you drive by. Buddy's was the first of the BBQ places in Alabaster; been here since before the Shelby county boom. It's simple; nothing fancy here. We got the pork plates. It came with 2 sides, so fries and potato salad. Fries were good. The potato salad was runny. There was a little too much sauce, but the meat itself had a good flavor to it. I need to make more of an effort to come back more often and try some different sides. But I do recommend the burgers; always worth the wait.

Free parking. Spacious parking lot…read more My first time here with my cousins for dinner. They love this spot and I'm glad I got the chance to try it. Everyone was courteous from the time we entered the restaurant until the time we walked back out the door. The space held a nice, low-lit ambiance. Italian decor and pictures graced the walls. The food was delicious . I wish the bread were toasted a little. Then that would have been a great starter for our dinner.

Man what a bad experience at a nostalgic restaurant. I…read morehaven't been in so many years and yes I have heard it's gotten worse and now I can see why. First they had a special for oyster. What given a menu with the oyster special. On ALL the table the had a sign stating they had oysters. Guess what!? They didn't have any oysters. The waitress had to come back and apologize and said they had crab claws if that worked. Guess what?! No crab claws. I mean gezz. At least make sure you have the replacement of the replacement for an item you don't have. Food wise, the bread they give you were rocks. Stale! The calamari was fried to oblivion! The beef ravioli was decent but the Alfredo sauce for the gnocchi was broken. Looked like when you warmed up Alfredo in the microwave. I was so done with the meal and wanted to leave but we talked about a cannoli all day so when I order a cannoli for dessert guess what?! NO CANNOLI! Don't go

I used this catering company for a part, and while the food was absolutely amazing and would be…read morehighly recommended, the customer service on the part of the catering manager left a lot to be desired. Although all the details had been confirmed in advance, she reached out to me on the day of asking to deliver the food several hours before the confirmed time, because she "had something else to do." I declined because we did not have a good way to store the food or take a delivery, but despite the fact that I told her all of this, she sent a delivery person over with the food hours early anyway. Really disappointed in the service and will save myself the stress in the future by using another caterer.
