I took my Mom here for her Birthday on a Friday night. I made reservations about two weeks prior…read more We both had the Tasting menu. And, I had the wine pairing. Each course was imaginative and novel. I thought the flavors were amazing. The Caponata was amazing. When the server explained the course, I had no idea what it was going to taste like? It was so good. The other standout for me was the Tiramisu. I have never had a tiramisu like this one. Each course is on the small side, which I like. The restaurant is small. There is a bar area (maybe 10 people?) and a few tables. It is super cute and intimate. We were easily able to talk. Great service. Our server was attentive. She explained each course and was able to answer questions. This ranks near the top of my dining experiences. This is much more of an adventure. Probably not for the chicken-tendy crowd. Not inexpensive. I can't wait to eat here again.

I could not be happier with my experience at Mink. I came with my son for mother's day and didn't…read morereally know what to expect. When I walked in and saw the tiny space I was charmed. There was a 2 top table at the back that we were seated at - we could have sat at the bar also - and it was a great spot. We ordered the tasting menu and WOW, every course was amazing. I'll post pics because the presentation was gorgeous for each item. They have a small cocktail and wine and beer selection, but that was fine. My son got their Shrub Mocktail and I got the Shrub with Sake. Both were delicious and so interesting. I can't pick a favorite item because they were all so good, but the Torched Mackerel and Poached Bosc Pear were tied for #1, followed by the Salmon, Oysters and the crazy good Blood Orange dessert. The shrimp toast was just ok for me, not bad, just not as good as everything else. Additionally the service was outstanding. For a tiny place they did everything right. They explained each course, brought out fresh utensils for every course - YEA! - and made sure we had good pacing. Our server was knowledgeable and friendly and enhanced our meal. I really want to come back and try the oysters and some of the tinned items. I'm so excited I found Mink and will be back for sure.

Fortunately, Lost Sailor Fish & Gourmet is in my neighborhood. I thought I'd give them a try. Luckily, "David" answered my call and said he could acquire it fresh the day before my dinner party. He came through in a big way! Not only did he have the fish as promised, but he gave me all kinds of info about the different types of bass, Mediterranean vs Chilean bass, and how to prepare it. The dinner party was a huge success; everyone loved the oven-cooked bass. The platter was emptied by the end of the meal. David was right on when he suggested 5-6 oz fillets per guest. I will definitely go back to Lost Sailor Fish & Gourmet for future fish dinners. Thanks, David!

Important to say, I haven't been to the UK yet and am not an expert on Fish and chips, however best Fish in Chips I've had in a very very long time. Up there with some of the best I've ever had! Incredibly juicy fish, perfect tempura batter, and an incredible tartar sauce. It's amazing that in a 15 minute car ride, the batter was still incredibly crispy which is hard for a lot of restaurants to do. Fries or "chips" were seasoned well and for not liking coleslaw, best I've ever had and was delicious. I don't normally write reviews, the fact I'm writing one immediately after I've tasted everything speaks volumes. I recommend everyone in the area to stop by, you will not leave unsatisfied guaranteed! Thank you to the staff at Lost Sailor Fish & Gourmet, your pushing out incredible product!

Stopped into Voyager in Ferndale and came away impressed. The restaurant has a cool, unique…read morevibe--it looks like it may have been converted from an old mechanic's garage. It's relatively small inside, but the outdoor seating is comfortable, and the bar looks like a great place to sit if you can grab a seat. The service was outstanding. Everyone knew the menu inside and out, had great recommendations, and kept everything moving at the perfect pace. We tried both the hot and cold lobster rolls, and both were excellent. The Millennium Falcon seafood tower was the star of the meal--fresh, beautifully presented, and absolutely worth ordering. The oysters were some of the best I've had recently, especially considering we're this far from the ocean. The crab dip was unique, flavorful, and something I'd happily order again. The only dish that didn't quite hit for me was the lobster gnocchi. It was presented beautifully, but for my palate there was just a little too much tarragon in the cream sauce. That's more of a personal preference than a flaw in the dish. The restrooms were clean, parking is limited, but so is the seating, so it seems to balance out. Overall, there's really not much bad to say about Voyager. Excellent seafood, knowledgeable service, and a fun atmosphere make it one of the better dining experiences in the area. I'd gladly return

Came in with friends to celebrate my birthday at happy hour and had a blast. Made a reservation…read moreright at opening and walked right in at 4:00 and was seated right away. While it wasn't totally full, I was still surprised at how busy it was so I would try and make a reservation. Decently sized bar and a fair amount of seats but it's a relatively small interior. Our waitress was fantastic. She walked us through the specials and was extremely patient with us trying to decide what all to order. 10/10 service. The food was spectacular. We started with a dozen oysters. They were fantastic. Didn't even need cocktail sauce or mignonette. We also did an order of the buffalo halibut cheeks which was a special. Wow. What a dish. Not too spicy in part because of the ranch that came with it; the cheeks were perfectly cooked. They could not have been more tender. One of the best bites I've had in quite some time. We did another dozen oysters which came from a different spot. I thought that was a nice touch. For $2 an oyster, they were begging us to order haha. Seriously though; fantastic deal. Finally, I had the fish sandwich. The tartare sauce was a bit overpowering but I liked the taste so no complaints. Fish was perfectly fried and I liked the inclusion of pickles of which there were many. A very solid fish sandwich. They brought us a brownie and a bit of ice cream on the house which I very much appreciated. Talk about a delicious brownie. It had no right being that good. Must order. Glad I finally tried Voyager and I can't wait to return. I could see this getting a Bib Gourmand Michelin recognition next year.

I stopped by Hazel in Birmingham after a workout because I was hungry and happened to come across…read morethe restaurant while walking around. I ordered some food, and I have to say, the customer service made my entire day! I especially want to give a HUGE shoutout to Hillary! She was so kind, welcoming, warm, and genuinely helpful. Sometimes it's the little things that make a big difference, and Hillary went above and beyond to make me feel welcomed and appreciated. I hope the owner sees this review and recognizes Hillary for the amazing customer service she provides. Employees like her deserve to be acknowledged and rewarded because they truly make a difference in a customer's experience. Honestly, if Hazel could clone 10 Hillarys, everyone would walk out of that restaurant with a smile on their face! Thank you, Hillary, for being so wonderful and making my day a little brighter. Hazel is lucky to have you!

I had went to "Hazels" on the corner of Maple and Woodward in Birmingham after leaving my doctor's…read moreoffice and getting some sobering news! I've been there several times with my son and always had a good experience. However, today I walked in and it was like nobody saw me and I stood there at the entrance and I stood there. Two gentlemen came in behind me and the girl saw them and she seated them and then she saw me and she said 'are you here to eat' I said, "of course I'll take the seat by the window facing Maple" and she said "OK go ahead and I'll bring you a menu"! She never did. Eventually, the Server who was working that table. She saw me and she was training another person today and she says I'll be right with you! Well, a minute turned into another minute and another minute and several other people came in and then she came to me and said "what are you having?" I said "I don't know. I don't have a menu!" "Oh" she said "She didn't give you a menu!" I said, No, She didn't give me anything"! So the Server and her trainee went and got me a menu and a glass of water, silverware and napkin! After waiting and waiting for my server and her trainee to return and more people to be seated, my server returned and took my order! Lobster bisque and halibut with green beans no potatoes! Then, for more waiting! And I waited and waited and waiting! They brought my lobster bisque! I tell you! They just do not know how to make a lobster bisque in Birmingham thus far! Not up to par. It was orange and not a bit of lobster in it! Nor the smell of lobster was nowhere near it! I don't know what these restaurants think lobster bisque is. Did not even return to remove my bowl or replenish my water! Never saw them again! Then, I waited another long time until they brought out my main course which was pathetic and the sauce with it was so salty that I couldn't even use it so I did sprinkle some lemon on the fish and try to eat it. The best thing about the meal was the green beans! I ate part of the fish, but it was more or less tasteless! Not one time did my server come to check on me to see if everything was OK and as she was bringing me my check, she poured me some more water, that was really good. The only time she checked on me! The water. Did I tip her? Hummm NO! Oh no oh no! I'm a very good tipper for good service! What could improve? Everything!
