Vino & Vibes absolutely lives up to the name. Can I give this place 10 stars??…read more First off, the food was amazing. Everything tasted super fresh and the menu leans more "snacky" in the best possible way -- perfect little plates that are clearly meant to pair with wine. We ordered a few things for the table and it felt like the kind of place where you just keep ordering one more thing because everything sounds good. Nothing heavy, just really well done bites that let the wine shine. Speaking of wine, the selection is awesome. It's not the usual predictable restaurant list. There are some really interesting bottles and styles on there, which makes it fun if you actually enjoy trying different wines instead of just defaulting to the same thing every time. Service was great too. Everyone we interacted with was friendly and welcoming, and you can tell the owners are really hands-on and working hard to make the place special. That always makes a difference. And the ambiance... chef's kiss. Moody lighting, cozy, stylish but not pretentious. Just good vibes all around. It's the kind of spot you want to linger at with friends and a second bottle of wine. Already planning my next visit :)

What a divine dining experience…read more Everything we ate, from the stuffed mushrooms, lamb, butter fish, roasted carrots, and lobster bisque, were all excellent. The 9 oz wine pours were decently priced. Loved that they have a dessert tray to show you all their options. Our server was great, and my father in law couldn't stop talking about how we could talk to each other because although the place was full, it wasn't loud. Will definitely be back.

It's also not noisy as such at all so it is the perfect place for my girlfriends and I to hang out once a week or so after work, get some flatbreads and wine and have good conversations.. All the servers we have had all these times while in this restaurant have been awesome so I basically have had no complains.

So I've been here a few times for a couple of different events, like euchre night, and it has…read morealways been a great experience. Now, even better for me is that it's also a brewery known as Belching Monk. Being my first time here, I did a flight of all their beers, which gave me a nice sampling of all their choices. While the selection was very standard for most breweries, you have you amber, your stout, your IPA etc., one thing that stood out to me was how perfect each beer was. There wasn't a lot of nonsense, and these were all just good, easy drinking beers for the most part in the 5-6% ABV range. I noticed that they are now doing some game watches along with trivia, euchre etc and I am actually looking forward to making this a regular spot. Great job to the team!

The menu just changed the day that we visited and some of the items weren't yet available to purchase. But there is a decent sampling of small plate items to pair with your wine options. There is also a nice selection of bourbons, cocktails, beer and more if that's more of your lane. Certainly a nice place to stop when you need a break from shopping. The ambiance is above average; it is nice but not extravagant and you'll fit right in with Saturday errand running attire. My only suggestions are that they add flights and more non dairy small plate items. Overall I did enjoy my time here. The space is quaint and easy to make new friends if sitting at the bar, or at least that was my experience.

Our server was so kind and helpful with my husband's odd allergy. They made sure he knew exactly what he was eating. Our soup and salad were very delicious, but very small portions. We both had the kids grilled cheese and then shared a browned butter chocolate chip cookie. The setting is cute and a little quirky. It's not very close to home, so I don't think I'll be back. I did enjoy my lunch and I really liked how it was very clear that the food was fresh and homemade.

We went to the Rind last night after talking about it for months following a visit to Mongers…read moreProvisions (the store that The Rind is inside of). It was a lovely experience and the food was for the most part very delicious. Service was friendly and good but a tad on the slow side (not our server's fault, they seemed pretty busy and I think she may have been the only waitress working, so she was absolutely juggling a ton). They were out of the "pretty potatoes" which was disappointing because they sounded super delicious. The restaurant is a little dark and when very busy can get a little loud. The three women at the table next to us were having a very loud conversation (of which I picked up every word) and I could barely hear my fiancé, which I didn't love, so the acoustics are a bit odd. That being said, the decor and vibe is very home-y and everyone that works there was very pleasant and lovely, from the hostess to the man that refilled our waters. We got the charcuterie plate (selected two cheeses and two meats; comes accompanied by fig jam, mustard, sardinian crackers, and cornichons), the caesar salad, the short rib, the arctic char, and the olive oil cake for dessert. All of the food was really exceptional and delicious except I found the short rib to be a tad dry. We each ordered a cocktail, I got a spritzer and my fiancé got a seasonal Pimm's cup-type cocktail that used house-made cranberry syrup. They can accommodate gluten free diets easily which is also a plus. Overall, we will absolutely be coming back!I want to try that Wagyu Pastrami Reuben!

I really wanted to love The Franklin, but unfortunately the experience missed the mark…read more We arrived at 4:00 p.m. on a Saturday and were the only party in the restaurant for quite some time. The waitress was abrasive from the start and immediately informed us that there was a time limit on our table. Looking back, that's actually pretty comical, considering the restaurant ended up taking far longer than their own stated limit to serve us. We were there celebrating our friend's baby sprinkle and hoped for a relaxed, enjoyable afternoon. Instead, the service was painfully slow. Drinks took an exceptionally long time to arrive, and the wait for our meals was even longer. The delays were so significant that one member of our group eventually had to leave before fully enjoying the gathering. Had the service been friendlier and more attentive, the long waits may have been easier to overlook. But between the abrasive welcome, the slow pace, and the overall lackluster experience, our celebration felt more frustrating than enjoyable. I hate leaving negative reviews, especially because I was genuinely excited to try The Franklin. Unfortunately, this visit did not live up to expectations, and it's not somewhere I'll be rushing back to.

The food was good, albeit pricey, but high quality and delicious. We got the Feta Fritto as an appetizer and I chose the Spicy Rigatoni as my main. While it had good flavor, I was disappointed in the spice level - I was really hoping for something spicier. The other feedback I'd give is for such a cute spot downtown Birmingham the music felt like I was at a bad wedding with a horrible DJ... definitely not what you'd expect and just felt strange to us as it didn't match the ambiance of the place itself. Either way, this was a cute spot for a nice dinner!
