Helen - Birmingham

I finally scored a reservation here, or so I thought. Checked in at the front desk and then realized I made it for 4 weeks in the future. ???? Luckily they had a free table and sat us at a well spaced two top. Our server, Tessa, promptly greeted us and walked us through the menu. The first round of cocktails were great. We led the meal with tomato pie, smoked grouper tartines, and burata peach salad. Each one outstanding, but a special note to the peach vinegar on the

Helen was everything I had heard and more. Beginning with the Angel Biscuits and Early Summer Tomato Pie while sipping on a Wallflower that contains Roku Gin, White Peach Matcha, Blanc Vermouth, Segura Viudas Cava. The entree was Whole Gulf Flounder a la Plancha with golden roasted potatoes followed up with Chilton County Peach Torte! Make the reservation and enjoy 2 hours of the best atmosphere, service, cocktails and wine, and yes the food!

We had a late lunch here a few days ago and we?re very happy with our selections. We had the bologna sandwich and the double cheeseburger. The bologna was smokey and of a high quality. Nostalgic and tasty. The burger was a perfect combination of thin patties topped with melted cheese and shredded lettuce along with mustard. Quite good, nothing left on my plate. The chips were quite good as well and the angel biscuits are a must. Service was super friendly and quick.

By far the best meal we have ever had. We got the corn ribs, squash au gratin, kale salad, and filet. Everything was amazing and just the right amount to feed 2 people. The house punch cocktail is also the BEST. So good we had 4 of them!! Will definitely come back here whenever I?m Birmingham. Be willing to drop a few hundred dollars (even for 2 people), but it is well worth it. Also.. Seth was an absolute dream as a server! Knew the menu, was willing to talk to us about

This is a really nice restaurant. Great atmosphere, very good service. We will come back. Everyone who had the duck enjoyed it. The appetizers were very good. I just had bad food. My short rib was inedible. Tough as leather and I didn’t enjoy the marinade. I would have sent it back except we were with a group. The mushrooms were over seasoned with a balsamic that had a twang bite to them.
