    Spicy curren ramen
    Bella A.

    Feeling so lucky to have this new addition right by UAB medicine campus!! The staff is so kind, and there's lot of seating available inside. Have been craving ramen and sushi since my visit to Japan, and this new ramen place hit the spot!!! Tried the spicy curry ramen, and will 100% be coming back. The sushi was also very yummy, my favorite was the pink lady roll. We cannot wait to come back!!

    Decent ramen around UAB. The boba tea is also pretty good. The staff is super nice to let us in early.

    Me & the hubs wanted sushi and he happened upon this place on TikTok & we thought we'd give it a whirl! Very cute establishment perfect for lunch or date night they have sushi hibachi as well as the boba teas we tried the super crunch and the volcano roll I wasn't that impressed with either so I don't think I'm a fan of their sushi however their sesame chicken wings was a big hit with the hubs he thoroughly enjoyed them he also got shrimp fried rice which looked really good & the hubs absolutely loved it the service was really friendly and the food came out pretty fast I heard the broth for the ramen is cooked for 12 hours so I think I'm going to try that the next time not a big fan of the sushi but their food seems to be so much better parking on the Southside is just that you'll have to get in where you fit in however they didn't have a crowd so parking was a breeze

    This is a little gem! Amazing food! The chef asked how we liked our food too! There are not too many places downtown Birmingham and this place is open on Sundays too.

    The food was good, service was prompt, and the ambiance was nice!! Tastes very similar to a place in my hometown I've been missing!

    Went on two separate occasions and food was delicious! Staff was also really nice and very attentive! The fruit teas are delicious too. I had sushi the first time and one of the hibachi bowls the second time. They also have actual yum yum sauce (IYKYK) that's sooooo good!

    House special yakisoba and Brown Sugar Milk Tea

    Tried this place out on my lunch break today! The yakisoba was very good. All of the meat was tender and the noodles weren't too oily or greasy like other places. I got the brown sugar boba milk tea which was okay. I've had better. I wanted to get the ramen but I also didn't want to carry it back to my office. The inside of this place is nice and clean so maybe I'll eat my food there next time so I can try the ramen. Overall, good food and fast service.

They have so many different types of ramen that are perfect when you need something warm, flavorful, and comforting. My absolute favorite, however, is the build you own sushi burrito. They have so many different additions and proteins to choose from at a very affordable price for the volume you receive. My friends and I also love stopping in just to grab boba at the front to-go counter. The boba always comes out very quickly and they have a large menu of fruit teas and milk teas to choose from. Service is always quick and friendly and I usually am able to be seated immediately. Definitely recommend this place if you are looking for Japanese cuisine, or just to gather at a restaurant where there is something everyone can enjoy!

I've been craving ramen since January of 2025 (literally LMAO) The ramen was rich, comforting, and perfectly cooked, with a great variety on the menu so everyone can find something they love. The boba tea was also fantastic, sweet, refreshing, and a perfect match for the meal. The prices were super affordable too! About 15-20 per bowl which was much cheaper than what I've seen previously. What truly made the experience unforgettable was our server, Accep. He was a total hoot and had us laughing the entire time. So silly, energetic, and genuinely fun, he turned a great dinner into an amazing memory. His personality alone could light up the whole restaurant, and his service was just as top-notch. We absolutely LOVED him. I can't wait to go back just to see him actually, LOL. Delicious food, great selection, awesome boba, and an unforgettable server.

We got so many things to start with Coconut water rice cake. Yes it does have the consistency of a sponge cake. It was good! I also got some Panda red bean buns. Cute and also good! For drinks: Sake, Taro bubble milk tea, and a Thai milk tea. We tried Winter Melon and clam soup For my entree I got Chicken with Lotus root which I enjoyed, My husband got crispy intestine . (My husband said he has never had it done that well-clean taste ) I tried it and it was ok. My son got the Szechuan style sautéed brisket and he ate it up ! To go yep we got sautéed pork belly and eggplant, pork, & basil . Both were also good. The waiter worked his bum off and we gave him a good tip. The only complaint were the young boys working up front who weren't friendly and acted like working was killing them. Why I didn't give you a 5! Otherwise you would have deserved it !!! All the food was delicious! Now on to the market - I like this better than the hometown market why they have many things I haven't seen including Jin noodles I have been looking everywhere for!!!! We bought many things to try including cucumber, orange, and what I thought was Mango potato chips. Nope it was abalone ! Not so good but the orange was good Of course Jin noodles , tiramisu mochi, banana milk rice snacks(yum) , tamarind drink, orange pepper spice, and chili crisp Our cashier though was joyless . Would I go back to both ? Yes I would!!

    Love Back Forty, along with the rest of Birmingham. There's always so much going on here,…read moreespecially when the weather is good. Tons of kids and dogs outside. People often host their own little parties and events at the picnic tables here. I came on a Sunday afternoon, and it seemed like a lot of families came for lunch and to hang out after church. The food here is certainly impressive food for a bar to me. I love the wood fired pizzas. I will say, I think the size is a bit awkward. They're a little too big to be a single serving, and a little too small to be for two people. The beer is all good. Service at the bar always friendly. The fries here are some of my favorite in town. Shoestring.

They've got a huge selection of beers and a full dinner menu, so there's something for just about everyone. Whether you're coming for drinks or planning to eat, you won't feel limited. Parking is plentiful, which is always a win in Birmingham, and there's plenty of seating both indoors and outdoors. It works well for small groups or larger parties. One thing to know going in: this isn't really a full-service setup. You order and pick up your own food, and aside from someone occasionally clearing empty pint glasses, there's not much table service. We actually didn't receive utensils with our food and had to go back up to the counter to grab some. Not a huge deal, just something to be aware of. I ordered the catfish sandwich with fries. The sandwich itself was delicious -- crispy, flavorful, and satisfying. My only small gripe was that it came in a to-go box. I understand it probably makes cleanup easier for them, but it does take away a bit from the dine-in experience. The fries were shoestring style, which just aren't my personal favorite. They're fine, but I always feel like I need about three handfuls to feel satisfied. We went on a Saturday night and the brewery was packed -- and I mean packed. It was very loud and definitely more of a party atmosphere than a relaxing dinner vibe. If you're looking for a quiet night out, this probably isn't it. But if you want energy, beer, sports on TV, and a fun crowd, this place delivers. Overall, it's a great hangout spot to catch a game, grab a drink, and enjoy good food -- just expect a lively, high-energy scene.

Plus after bringing me my food the person went and sat in a recliner to watch TV. At least this time the food was on actual plates and not in a to go container. The food itself is really good. The most recent trip I decided to get an order of Man Doo (crispy fried dumplings) to go with my Beef Bul Go Gi Lunch Box, not realizing or remembering that the lunch box included 2 dumplings. The Beef Bulgogi was season well and tasted great. Rice was the typical Asian restaurant nice and sticky white rice. The kimchi was pretty typical but seemed very freshly prepared. The restaurant itself is like a hole in the wall type that would fit in any city's Chinatown. Dine in experience was not bad but when drinking water only comes from room temperature water bottles on the counter by the register, future trips may be for takeout instead.
