It's like they timed it just perfectly to open one for me. The bathrooms are so clean as well! And they keep this place so tidy overall! The patio on this specific location overlooks the traffic and they have made it so peaceful. This is a spot I can frequent!

Reservations not allowed day before but you can " get in line" on their website on the day of. Our friend arrived at 10 am on a Sunday, added our party of six to the website "Get in line" which reported a 30 min wait. Instead it took 45 min wait with no real waiting area. Line was standing out the door. We don't understand why it's so popular as our food was just average and portions very chintzy for the price. I had a $16 salmon frittata entree that came with a salad. The salad was mixed greens and a tasty citrus vinegarette. Come on, a few thin slices of red onion & 2 cherry tomatoes would have made it average-it was lettuce only. Nothing but 3 kinds of lettuce-that's not a salad in my book! My frittata had about 1 tablespoon of flaked overly dry salmon. The whole thing was dry and lacked flavor. Chile Chorizo for hubby was an omelet with about one teaspoon of chorizo- barely discernible, and the plate was filled up with "Greens" (lonely mixed lettuce) salad. The rest of our party was busy visiting out of town company and did not comment on their food. The 45 min wait, prices and the tasteless small serving of entrees has made us conclude never to return.

Because of the intense Alabama heat, we chose to sit inside, though they have a really nice screened-in patio available. The restaurant is intimate but well laid out, featuring a couple of distinct dining areas and a bar. Since it was our first time, our server, Daniella, recommended the candied bacon bombs to start. They came with a side of cheese curds, and both were absolutely delicious. Even as small as the curds were, they had a perfect cheese pull! For our mains, I ordered the cowboy burger with an added egg and a side of sweet potato fries, while my son chose the shrimp and grits. My burger was incredible, a solid 9.5 out of 10. My son rated his shrimp and grits a 7, though he has a lot of experience with that dish to compare it to. Daniella provided fantastic service, checking in at just the right times without hovering. I later realized I forgot to ask if they do anything special for birthdays, but honestly, my son was probably glad I forgot! Overall, it was a great meal, excellent service, and a very cool environment.

Why do most coffee shops in Alabama have to face a parking lot? Why the heck is everything another…read moreugly strip mall? What makes it even sadder in the case of Santos, is they tried to make the exterior a little more enjoyable by putting some nice tables and even a swing outside. Sadly, without any plants separating the area from the parking lot, the entire vibe of this coffee shop, both looking out from inside and sitting outside is not that great. But, vibe aside, let's talk about how it got here. Santos is a family owned small chain. The main owner, Wendy Madden, opened the first coffee shop in 1993 in Tuscaloosa and since expanded into Santos Coffee we know today. The establishment pays homage to Guatemalan saints and ancestral lands where coffee is sourced from, from family's original plantations. The beans are roasted in Birmingham after being imported from Guatemala. The coffee is absolutely excellent here. Seriously, a very tasty latte. Oddly, they do not have an option to get it in a mug, so there is no way to avoid the plastic coating and the flimsy paper cups. Also there wasn't even a design on top of the latte...but ok, maybe that's slightly picky to highlight. Thus, Santos as a whole is a good coffee shop for to go orders. With excellent coffee quality, this is where they really shine. With that said, the vibe and serving methods need work.
