    Absolutely my favorite place to eat in north Alabama. Friendly service and their food is great!…read moreTheir ribeye is my favorite. The "Southern charm" and a "country atmosphere" on top of the great food makes Woodpecker's a wonderful place to eat. My hat's off to Cynthia (the owner). She works very hard to make it all come together!

    I've know of this place for a few years now. I pass through the small community often and see the…read moresmall sign on main highway. I've looked it up and read the reviews and looked at pictures of the food. Today, the wife and I decided to drive down here to try it out. This place is well out in the middle of nowhere. In fact, you drive up and around to the road dead ends into the parking lot. It sits up on top of a hill, which overlooks a couple of ponds. It is secluded, in has many trees around to block the view. The place doesn't look like it's anything special. Even inside, it's not very impressive. Very plain decorations scattered throughout the establishment. However, I'm not there to be impressed by what is hanging on the walls or sitting around. I'm here to eat a good meal, enjoy a good glass of tea and have a very good waitress to see that my service needs are met in a fashionably manner of time. We arrive just a few minutes after opening time at 5pm. There are already several cars parked in the parking lot, with several more coming in behind us. Which is a good sign to start off as a first impression. There are only a couple places to eat in this community, so it wasn't very surprising to see the locals pouring in. We were greeted with a warm friendly welcome and promptly seated. Our waitress was swiftly there to take our drink order and got us started quickly. Our food arrived in a timely manner as well. I had the steak and fish combo. The steak was so tender you could stick the fork in it & pull a piece off with the knife. No cutting was really needed. The taste was very good and juicy. It was perfectly cooked. The fish fillet was very good also. My wife had the steak and grilled shrimp combo plate. Very large shrimp that was very good and seasoned great. The side salads were pre-made due to Covid restrictions. I'm sure if the salad bar had been opened up, I would have enjoyed the salad better by my choice of toppings for it. I cannot give a negative mark or review because of Mawmaw Ivey's orders. We also had an appetizer of crab claws, they weren't the best or the worst. They just weren't as fresh and good as we would get at the beach. The only complaint I could really issue is the lack of effort on the waitress not checking back with us regularly while eating and topping off our tea glasses. I will say they were pretty busy though. They had a line of people waiting on a table when we were leaving. I would suggest this place to anyone and everyone that wants to go eat there. They have a lot of great reviews and they were all led to great expectations from us. They didn't disappoint us. Get there before 5 pm on the weekend to get in early and avoid the wait. They packed the guests in very fast while we were there. We enjoyed the experience and we will return here more often.
