That's what's served here, canned veggies and frozen meats, lil' pricey too for what it is... Servers tend to be fairly stingy when they pour stuff OUT OF DA LADLE before putting in plate, y'know, when they "flick" it out like they're "rationing" something for later??? Lol...Serving line badly needs updating as well... This is the only game in Hueytown for Meat 'n Three tho' besides the sodium-laiden grocery stores around that might even charge 2 separate prices for "chicken A-N-D dressing", (eh, Food Giant?) lol...

Back in 2004, Kash along with some classmates had decided to plan a restaurant for their senior level marketing class at UAB. The project took the full course of the semester and after several grueling months of research they came up with an idea to start

As a native of south Louisiana , I was disappointed. The boiled crawfish was not good. They were large, however, did not taste good. Seasoning was not in boil, it was sprinkled on top. Will never order that again. Fried green tomatoes w crab meat needed more sauce. Crab topping was dry and tasteless. The Cajun Seafood House in Vestavia Hills is much better and with true Cajun authentic taste.

I love the food here, and I eat here at 3 to 4 times a month. I love the fried catfish, I love the sweet potato, meat loaf, cream potatoes with gravy, cabbage, and they sell orange cream sodas! The dumplings are wonderful when they have enough juice on them. Good food.

Excellent bbq ribs and loaded baked potato. Once order was placed the food arrived within five minutes! Services was great and food was superb. Locals seem to love the food here. The place was jammed packed, wall to wall. Take out was busy. Passed by at 2:30 pm and it was still busy. That says a lot.

We thought the food was exceptional and the service was friendly and competent. I had the Caprise flat bread and it was different and delicious. The goat cheese dried cranberry and pecan and apple salad was fresh and crisp and delicious. I substituted the balsamic dressing for the mustard dressing and it was a winner. They list a spicy pimento a burger but my husband just wanted a pimento cheese sandwiches with tomato and bacon and it was exceptional he omitted the beef patty. Would go again.

"You're six minutes early." That was the response of the frowning hostess, as she finally noticed us. We had arrived for our 5:30 dinner reservation a few minutes early to soak up the atmosphere, and we had a spa appointment afterward and didn't want to miss it. Upon arrival, the "closed" sign was in place, and it took a few minutes for us to determine if the restaurant was actually open. It's no problem to wait a few minutes, but why not turn the delay into a positive. For example, maybe the hostess could say, "We're getting your table ready, so would you like to enjoy a drink from the bar?" Instead, it felt like we were intruding. Not what I had in mind when I booked the reservation to celebrate my husband's birthday. Overall, the food was pretty good, and the service was average, similar to what you might expect at a basic chain restaurant. This place didn't have the right "feel" for a special occasion, and I had been so hopeful. If you go - The property has a casual restaurant, and we found it to be VERY friendly. So if there's a next time, we will probably skip Brock's and choose the casual dining instead.Dear "Six Minutes Early",Thank you for taking the time to inform us of your recent experience at the Renaissance Ross Bridge Golf Resort & Spa. We are disappointed to learn of the problems you encountered during your time with us. Please accept our deepest apologies for your troubles. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention and will use your review as a way to improve. We do hope to see you at the castle again soon!

Really good cajun and southern food. Service is super-friendly, but a little slow. They are often out of multiple items, but just keep moving down your list. You'll find something that's good. They have won multiple awards at the local gumbo gala, so make sure to get at least a cup of gumbo - it's awesome. The bisque is really good, too.

I'm not a fan of Full Moon's pork products. Their pulled/sliced pork is tender but light on smokiness. Their ribs tend towards small and chewy, too. But the turkey is good, and the brisket is very good. Sides are all excellent, with the collards being my personal favorite. I like the sweet cornbread they serve here, too.Sweet tea is serve-yourself, but other drinks are behind the counter. Several TVs are in the dining room but the sound is low. Free wi-fi is available, too.
