Probably the best restaurant in the area but because it is connected to a hotel (Townsend) does not receive the accolades it deserves. Simply love the foie burger!
- John KeatingSeptember 22, 2021A special place for my family! From 1997-2003 enjoyed Sunday brunch in the corner window table. The eggs benedict is amazing. Bloody mary mix by the half gallon to go for the Lake Angelus afternoon.
- The best steaks and creative foods around! I feel like I am NYC! Try their Foie Burger. Delicious!
- Brunch is truly one of the best in the area along with the service. For dinner, Dover Sole, any of the prime steaks and the cocktail menu is wonderful.
Lisa GriffinNovember 27, 2012Love everything about this place... very sophisticated and charming. I always order the Eggs Benedict and freshly squeezed Orange juice is a must!- In The Townsend Hotel. Great for breakfast (have the Frittata), lunch (salads are fantastic), dinner (steaks to die for).
- Can't lose for breakfast with the lox Benedict! Delicious! Frittata is wonderful also!
- Service is the best! Try the French Omelet for brunch or in the evening, the Dover Sole or one of the steaks #todiefor
Brenda AndrewsJuly 9, 2016Great atmosphere and wonderful service. I enjoyed the Brick Chicken and Strawberry Brule.- Everything is delicious!!! Try the omelet or the burger with steak fries. Also brick chicken was delicious also.
- Love it for breakfast! Great coffee and deliciously prepared breakfast items and a few creative things. Hash is great
Ricky SherrillFebruary 14, 2015Friendly and professional service make this a good choice when in the area.- Chefs daily pre-fix menus are as good as any Chicago or NYC restaurant!
- Great food and service! Regular burger and Foie Burger were outstanding! Also known for great steaks
- Best restaurant in area. Forbes rated. Wine Spectator rated. Food for a foody and those that like just steak.
- Dover Sole, burgers and steaks, everything! Service is excellent also!
Dano RenelMay 20, 2012The food is amazing. Duck tacos , steamed Mussels rock. If Martallena is a but snooty go with it.- Culinary delight and truly the best service restaurant in Birmingham
