I called to place an order and it was too late. What??? I have placed orders several times and never had a problem. I literally live 5 minutes down the road and it's too late?

We all agreed beforehand that we wanted to try a new place that felt pretty relaxed and had outdoor seating. This place gave everything, plus some! We didn't have to wait long for a table, and our waiter was very attentive & knowledgeable about the menu. He answered all of our questions & helped me decide what to order. The outdoor seating is spacious & it was nice to hear the live music coming from a neighboring business. My friends got the Goofy Foot drink & said that it was good but definitely on the stronger side w/the tequila. I opted for a glass of Riesling, it was delicious & paired perfectly with my meal. We didn't get any appetizers. I ordered the fish of the day: Red Snapper w/a Sweet Pea, Tomato & Saffron Risotto 20/10 I always judge food on whether it's "first bite" good & every piece on my plate passed the test. One of my friends chose the Smoked Salmon Pizza, which I was a bit skeptical about at first, but I tried a slice & it was so good. Definitely an out of the ordinary pizza combo that made me rethink all the ways smoked salmon can be used. Another friend ordered the Grilled Ribeye w/Brussel Sprouts & Mashed Potatoes, she loved it! The espresso martinis were also delicious. I wanted a cannoli for dessert but they were sold out, unfortunately. Overall, I'll definitely be returning b/c the food, pricing & atmosphere are all worth the drive. Can't wait to try the lunch menu next!

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

This was my first time ordering anything from here. I was drawn in by a BOGO offer for burgers and fries for National Cheeseburger Day. I ordered on their app and was given a thirty minute estimate on pick up. The outside of the restaurant is well maintained and the inside looked nice and clean. They weren't overly busy. The host looked at me but I was not greeted. I had no problem finding the pickup counter that had about four or five people waiting. The restaurant has an open floor plan and loads of big screen TVs. The music wasn't overly loud. I had to wait for a while before I got to the counter. Apparently they only had one employee manning the to-go counter and running back and forth to get the orders from the kitchen. An employee came to fill their water bottle with soda but didn't work the to-go counter. When the man working the counter showed up, he was very friendly and apologized for the wait. I had to wait for around 15 minutes past my estimated time. Luckily, I wasn't on a time schedule and they had a nice seating area to wait. I received my food and made the mistake of not checking it before I got home. ALWAYS check your order. I had ordered two All-American Cheeseburgers with fries. The burgers were supposed to come with lettuce, tomatoes, pickles, and sautéed onions. I got one out of four: sautéed onions. That aside, the burgers were awesome. They were hand smashed and had tasty crisp edges and were dripping with melty cheese, topped with sautéed onions. I really liked that instead of putting the condiments on the burger, they came in a separate bag with our utensils and some wet naps. I always hate hot mayo, so this was a plus for me. The fries were shoestring fries. They were good, hot, crisp, and had a good many soft limp fries, which are my favorite. I'll definitely be back for the food, but if it's take out, I'll pause to check it before I leave.

The…read morerestaurant has a rustic, down-home atmosphere that fits the Southern comfort food menu perfectly. Our waiter, Hudson, was friendly throughout the meal and did a good job providing recommendations and suggestions. I ordered the 3-Piece White Meat Plate with two breasts and a wing, along with baked beans and coleslaw. I also ordered a side of the Sweet Heat sauce for dipping. My wife ordered the Fried Mississippi Catfish with fries and coleslaw, along with jalapeño hush puppies. The fried chicken and catfish were the stars of the meal. Both came out piping hot, crispy, and well seasoned. My chicken had plenty of flavor to stand on its own, but the Sweet Heat sauce complemented it nicely and added another layer of flavor without overpowering the chicken. The French fries were excellent and easily the best side. Crispy, hot, and exactly how fries should arrive. The remaining sides didn't reach the same level. We both found the vinegar-and-mayo coleslaw somewhere between average and below average. I felt about the same about my baked beans. My wife thought the jalapeño hush puppies were average. If you want excellent hush puppies, Shrimp & Co. in Hueytown remains our standard. Both of our meals were also served with a thick slice of white bread, which fit the simple, down-home presentation. This was our second or third visit to Champy's, and the food that matters most has been excellent each time. The sides may be hit or miss, but they know how to fry some chicken and catfish. Come for the chicken and catfish, definitely get the fries, and consider the other sides supporting players.

We were familiar with Taco Mac from Atlanta so we had high hopes for this particular spot. We were not disappointed! We were promptly seated. The inside of the restaurant was industrial with a lot of TV screens and very bright lighting (too bright). Our waitress was friendly and informative about the menu. We ordered Philly cheesesteak egg rolls and wings. The egg rolls were amazing! The steak and cheese were tasty and the "roll" blended with the ingredients to make a tasty appetizer. My son loved the wings- they were meaty which is always a good thing. We had a great quick dinner at Taco Mac. We will be back next time we are in Pelham. Thanks, Taco Mac!!
