The restaurant is clean and spacious. They may have been training a new crew member so ordering was a bit wonky. They charged $3 for a cup of water (is that normal?) so we switched to soda. Even so, service was still friendly and good. As for food, the tots and fries are awesome. I had the Zydeco burger which was perfectly seasoned and balanced with toppings. Not a huge fan of horseradish and the sauce on the burger had just the right amount. My son had the cheesesteak and said it was good. My wife's $7 special mushroom & Swiss burger was good. The burger patty was a little small, but a combo for that price is hard to find. Growing up in beef country means my hamburger expectations are pretty high. I've found few really good burgers in AL. The beef patty on my Zydeco burger is one of the best I've had around here. I can't give 1/2 star ratings here so I'll err to the positive and give it a 5

I was just talking with my daughter just now and asked her if she had ever had a Travis, when I was young we called it the TRAVIS BEARBURGER back in those days everything was BEAR FRANKS BEAR BEEF FRANKS.

I've seen them in various parts of town so chances are you've seen them around the Birmingham area at least once or twice. Known for their burgers and polish dogs the menu serves up delicious food that's saucy and fresh. They even have some vegan options for you. My go to is the polish dog that comes with a welcomed large polish sausage, onions and peppers drenched in their special sauce. The polish sausage is thick and seasoned with garlic. The hot dog bun and everything in between is a must try!

I have driven past Archie's countless times over the past decades (going back to when it was Golden…read moreRule), but I finally got to eat there for the first time! You walk in and the aroma of smoking meat surrounds you. The open kitchen with the BBQ pit in the back is surrounded by booths and tables, creating a warm and casual setting that is perfect for a family meal. The staff were universally friendly, not just our waitress but all the other servers and kitchen staff. They greeted us all with smiles and interacted kindly with my baby and toddler. The food was hearty and homey, with generous portions. We enjoyed a burger, pulled pork sandwiches, a corn dog, fries, baked beans, and a fried peach pie with vanilla ice cream. The burger was cooked fresh and perfectly grilled. The pulled pork was smoky and tender, but the sauce was a little more vinegary than I prefer. The fries were perfectly crisp and golden. My kiddo gave a huge thumbs up for his corn dog and the beans were a hit with the baby. The peach pie tasted like something my grandma would have made, warm and sweet and comforting. And if you like sweet tea so sweet you get cavities just looking at it, Archie's is the place for you (I had to do half and half myself).

About three minutes later, a couple came in and sat at another table, and they were waited on before either myself or the gentleman. I sat there as the staff behind the counter stared at me with disgusting looks. The waitress brought the older gentleman a drink without even asking for his order -- I'm assuming he was a regular and they knew what he wanted. Finally, after about six or seven minutes, a waitress came over and asked if I was waiting for someone. I told her no. She then asked if I could move to the counter and sit there. I told her I didn't want to move to the counter -- there was only one seat against a wall-type divider, and the space was about three feet wide. The older gentleman was not asked to move, and there was another older gentleman sitting by himself in a booth. Why was I being asked to move? I told the waitress that I would just leave, and she sarcastically said, "Well, you have a good night then." I did have a choice word to say to her as I was leaving. I really wanted to try Archie's, but I guess being young and dining alone is not welcomed here. A place like this deserves to go out of business.

3.5ish, rounding up to 4 for nice service and a creative menu…read more I saw an advertisement about this Birmingham-area truck making the trip up to Huntsville for a Medieval Festival outside of Yellowhammer Brewing. I thought it'd be fun to see the costumes and vendors and the menu won me over, so I stopped by to grab a meal for me and my husband to share. The truck itself is large and impressively decorated/designed and really delivers on the sort of Valkyrie / Maiden of War fantasy. Food is made to order so they do tell customers about how long to expect to wait. I was fortune to arrive early in the event and only had one or two orders ahead of me. My fresh food was still out less than 15 minutes after I ordered it. Service was friendly, professional, and eager to answer questions. I ordered their simplest burger, The Primordial Axe (one patty, semi standard toppings like pickles, onion, lettuce tomato), a half order of their Locked and Loaded fries (bacon, ranch, jalapeños, cheese and grilled chicken), and I couldn't resist one of their limited time dessert specials, the Scarlet Orchard Bread Pudding, which was cinnamon bread with pumpkin custard, with apples, cranberries, and whipped cream on top. It was definitely a feast for the two of us! The burger was my least favorite thing. It wasn't bad, but it just wasn't super flavorful, and I thought a little too much fat hadn't rendered out of mine, which left it chewy in parts. The loaded fries were solid. Crinkle fries are my least favorite cut of fry, but these were cooked nicely and salted and seasoned well. The half serving was still absolutely huge and the toppings were layered well and were quite flavorful. Generous, well-cooked bacon, and nice fresh jalapeños too. The grilled chicken was cooked perfectly, was flavorful and juicy, and a pleasant surprise honestly - I don't usually love grilled chicken in loaded fries. Speaks to the quality of the meat and skill of the cook! The best thing to me was the dessert, though. One detractor - the cranberries were very bitter lol. But other than that, the spiced apples were a nice balance of crisp and tender as well as sweet and sour. The bread was soft but not soggy and perfectly sweet. It was a super generous portion that made two dessert servings for each of us. Overall, I am glad I made the visit to try this truck and would recommend giving it a try.

It was a bad…read moreexperience .. the event started late, the food wasn't good, the building had no heat on New Year's Day. Just bad all around. I said never again. Fast forward to this week, 7/2024. It was my turn to pick a place for happy hour. I called SKA last Thursday & asked what time happy hour is? The staff replied "Either 4pm or 5pm until 7pm." I asked her to please find out and I'd wait. In response she asked me what time I planned to come. I told her, 4pm. She responded, "YOU SHOULD BE FINE AROUND THEN." I was baffled and just asked for her name and ended the call ... We went to Courtyard 280 ‍ It just so happened that my friends picked SKA for brunch today, Saturday. I'd resolved that I was going for the company and would put all of my past experiences aside. My food experience had been prior the food truck and brick and mortar. So I was open to giving them a chance. I'm so so glad I did! They refer Saturday brunch as a Day Party. It's on the louder end of the spectrum, which is perfectly appropriate for a day party vibe. There was a DJ ... at some point my friend asked, Are they playing GloRilla?!? lol! I'm a fan so it was fine. Our waiter had great energy and he was attentive. The decor is nice. We ordered the mimosa flight. They were good, 4 flavors - strawberry, mango, blueberry, peach - not too sweet. I ordered shrimp and grits. The grits were thick (that's how I like them) and well seasoned. The shrimp was plentiful! was not over cooked at all. There was shrimp in most every bite. I'd recommend this. My friend ordered the fried catfish and grits and said she enjoyed it. The biscuit tasted canned - it wasn't needed though. This was a nice experience!

After about 10 minutes our order was brought to our table. Season fries had garlic and Parmesan. Hit and crispy, they were excellent. Burgers were juicy and well seasoned. Veggies were fresh and tasty. Craft sauce was mayo based and had a nice flavor. Tater tots were fresh and hot. Overall the meal was excellent! Loved the burger. Staff were helpful and friendly.
