I ordered the "ribeye" steak for nearly $50, and what came out was literally a thinly sliced chuck roast pretending to be steak. Calling that a ribeye is dishonest and unacceptable. The wine selection was supposedly "being revamped," but what that really meant was boxed wine being passed off as premium. And if it wasn't boxed wine, it was cheap, sour-tasting wine that might as well have been vinegar. To make things worse, the bartenders didn't even know what a daiquiri was. I was told they don't make them, until I explained that it's literally just vodka, lime juice, and simple syrup--only then did they realize they could "mix those things together." Absolutely unprofessional. The only saving grace was our waitress--she was kind, patient, and did her best with what she had to work with. The restaurant itself was clean and nicely set up, but that doesn't change the fact that the food and drinks were terrible. Save your money and go literally anywhere else. This was an embarrassing excuse for a restaurant.

This marker stands next to the original bridge which has since been superseded by a modern bridge…read more It's nice that the old bridge still stands, though there is no longer traffic on it. The marker reads, "This reinforced concrete river bridge, thought to be the first in Alabama. Was erected over Pea River in 1920-21 at a cost of $92,108.97. It was dedicated on August 3, 1921 as a memorial to the 57 men from Dale County who lost their lives in World War 1. Engineers were Mitcham, Keller, Smith and Land. County officials were Windham, Sessions, Roberts, Ziglar, Mullins and Archer. In 1977, through the efforts of the Dale County Historical Society, The Veterans Memorial Bridge was placed on the Alabama Register of Landmarks and Heritage by The Alabama Historical Commission" On the reverse, "Grist Mill - Indian Battle - Recreation. This land was purchased in 1832 by Henry Black who erected the first grist mill. In 1837 Creek Indians who escaped from the Battle Of Hobdy's Bridge, were routed here by Dale Militia. Subsequent mill owners were Hough, Frazier, Munn, Fleming and Beck. A post office called Scroggins Mill was established in 1844 with Edmund Black Postmaster; re-established as "River Mills" in 1877 with Daniel Munn, Postmaster. The mill was used to operate wool carding machines during the War Between The States. This site was popular as an area recreation center from 1875 to 1950." There is a spot nearby to stop and you can walk the bridge. [Review 19874 overall - 221 in Alabama - 847 of 2023.]
