All great places if you don't mind spending some money.

A few more moderately priced options:
Jim and Nicks BBQ (not the best bbq, but really good burgers, salads, chicken fingers, etc.)
Surin (really good Thai restaurant with multiple locations. The best location is at 5 Points South, which is a cool place to hang out in general.)
Of course, you could chow down on some ribs at Dreamland if you want to try the place made famous by college football broadcasts. The Bham location is not as good as the original in Tuscaloosa, but it's still a good time.
Nikki's West - consistently voted as one of the top 5 meat & veggie (cafeteria style) restaurants in the US.

If you post the area where you are staying, I can probably give you some more options specific to that area.

But you better know what you want or they will start yelling at you!


I second Surin West. The crab angels are a great app. The softshell crab and ka proud lamb are my favorites. Their shrimp fried rice is great.

Jim and Nicks cheese biscuits are addictive as crack but their BBQ is ok.

Rojo is a bar and has excellent quesadillas

Al's BBQ baked potato is EXCELLENT late night drunken food

Cocina Superior is a nice contemporary upscale twist on Mexican food.

La Paz is popular Mexican food.

Sol Azteca was my go-to Mexican joint. The bartender Roberto is cool as shite.

Their is better BBQ than Dreamland in Bham. Uncle Sams and Tin Roof (I think) are 2 I like. Miss Myras behind the Summit isn't bad either.

Fat Sams makes excellent greasy sandwiches and fries.

Silvatron has 1/2 off pasta night w/ HUGE portions. Their hot bacon salad is awesome.
